In those twenty years the book has grown from the status of a rather shaky activity to the well-founded and substantial institution that it now is. This result is due more than anything else to the courage and initiative of the first few Editors and Managers, With this in mind we wrote the first Editor of the book, Mr. H. A. Currier, for just an idea about the founding of the Pickout, and he was kind enough to send the following letter telling about it. Accordingly, we submit it to you, hoping that it may be of interest not only to the students of today, but also to any of the alumni reading these pages. ftfje JBirtj of tfje $ufeout Your Board has honored me by requesting a few remarks to be published in the 1925 Pickout and as its first editor, I can think of no words more fitting to the occasion than a concise review of the Birth of the Pickout. It happened that the writer and another fellow (just who I can ' t remember) were going out fuss- ing, or in other words — calling on some of the girls, one evening, and while waiting in Claude Plow- man ' s room chanced to pick up a year book issued by the University of Alabama. Immediately we were struck with the idea of publishing a similar book for Textile. The next day we approached Pete Varnum, our Class President, with the idea and he suggested we call a meeting of the class, to sound them out on supporting such a publication. That afternoon the meeting was called and the idea met with enthu- siasm. We proceeded to elect a staff and as the writer had sponsored the idea, he was naturally made the goat and elected editor. A name must be chosen, so after the usual suggestions The Pickout was selected as being both appropriate and symbolic. After the meeting adjourned, it was with some mis- givings that we faced the task confronting those of us who had been responsible for starting it, but with the enthusiastic support we had met with, we went to our task. We were very fortunate in having as our business manager Guy Newcomb, a live wire, and at our first meeting he showed us how important it was to have 24 THE PICKOUT 19 25 money to work with and conceived the idea of writing each of the trustees for a donation to help start our work. They all responded with generous contributions and assured our success at the start. We never quite got over the display of nerve we had in suggesting to Mr. Aver that we would like permission to dedicate the book to him and at the same time suggested that he give us a donation. However, our display of nerve was successful in both respects. Our campaign for advertising was launched and was very remunerative, so we were able to let a contract to the printer. The next step was to get material to put into our publication. This was no easy task as our inexperience caused us to flounder around a bit. We made one bad mistake in our zeal to have our volume as bulky as possible, by selecting a paper too heavy for our binding and I notice my original copy is barely hanging together. Si Haskell was appointed staff artist and with his able pen we were able to get some illustrations together, depicting our thoughts and ideas, to adorn the various articles. At the last moment before going to press, we found ourselves short some illustrations for captions of various articles and so everyone pitched in and tried out his artistic talents, not excluding the editor, himself. In fact, it was with some pride that he looked upon his artistic attempt at the illustration heading the article on the doings of the athletic association. It was merely a picture of an open safe marked empty but was so true of the finances of the T. A. A. in those years. As you who have been on the staff in later years realize, it was necessary for us all to fill in many a blank page, so we turned our hands to poetry and prose. Some of it was possibly far-fetched, but it served its purpose and helped us put the book across. You can well imagine our excitement when the printer showed us the first completed copy. It was a crude publication we will now admit, but our dream was launched and out on the water of the future, and it is with a feeling of pride and satisfaction that we see the work we started, kept on. The subsequent volumes have been far superior to our product, showing that practice makes perfect, and I cannot help but express my gratitude to the men who have carried on the work so ably, and I sincerely hope the generations to come will keep up their interest and continue the Pickout for ever and anon.

Villeneitve President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Executive Council Class piston , 1925 Jfrcs ' fjman ©car When one stops to think of the many men who have entered the portals of the Low oil Textile School, the question must flash through his mind- What are the thoughts of our President as he looks over the newly arrived Freshmen? There can he no doubt whatever that he thought the Freshman class of ' 25 about the most promising he had spoken to, and admonished in the way they should go. At least he was kind enough to insinuate it. Shortly after his talk the a Sophs, wishing to delight our eyes with the beauties of Lowell, escorted us, sans shoes, but in a motley assortment of silk socks, Boston garters, and a few other articles of wearing apparel, down through the main streets until we came to Page ' s clock, where several of us were forced to make speeches to the accompaniment of defunct eggs, slimy fish, and the whacks of paddles. Carlyle must have witnessed just such a scene of Freshman initiation when he wrote, Wondrous is the strength of cheerfulness; altogether past calculation its power of endurance, for the Freshmen took this humiliating ordeal as a joke. After this, however, we soon entered into the real spirit of the School, demonstrating to the world at large that our spirits were not broken, for our numerals soon graced Textile Rock in place of ' 24. After we had passed our 5 -week examinations we decided to have our banquet, which we did without the knowledge of the Sophomores who felt greatly chagrined on hearing the news the next day. The banquet was one of the best that we ever attended, from the point of view of good things to eat, as well as good fellowship which was engendered at that time. Afterwards we filed down town, then to the home of the Sophomore Presi- dent, just to give him a few words of cheer (in Sanskrit). To show the School that we were a wide-awake class, we gave a Christmas Party for the benefit of the A. A. It was a great social success and added substan- tially to the funds of the Association. As the spring months came, social activities became the order of the day, with studies running a close second, until finals came along to add worry to our various other troubles. There may be more unusual years in the life of a student, but undoubtedly the Freshman year is the most important, for it is during this period that friendships are formed, and certain traits of character brought out, that endure, not only during school life, but throughout the years to come. H opi)omore |9eat On our return in the fall Ave noted the havoc done to our ranks by the Freshman final exams. However, the remainder of the class took great pride in the new dignity 29 THE PICKOUT 1925 of being Sophs, and upheld traditions by escorting the greenest looking bunch of Freshies one could ever see through the muddy streets of Lowell to our old rendez- vous - Page ' s Clock. There we inculcated into their minds the uselessness of attempting any insubordination against Sophomore rules and regulations. Some of the hardier and more reckless Freshmen had to be given long rides into the country by the Thirteen Club, in order that the lonely walk home might give them a chance to reform their evil ways. Persecution and hardships seemed to make them more daring, for at the annual football game they tied us 7-7, and, in a later game, won 7-0. Although not so strong in athletics, we showed up well in the Textile play Billeted, presented at the Colonial Theatre on February 21. By this time we had chosen as our Class Officers: Guy H. Harmon President Edward Moore Vice-President Theodore H. Thomas Secretary Maurice A. Villeneuve Representative Executive Council Then came mid-years and later the musical comedy directed by Mr. Wink- field — which was a great success-- and before long finals brought to a close a happy Sophomore Year. SJumor f9ear To be a Junior doesn ' t give the same thrill as to be a Sophomore, or a Senior. It is a lukewarm proposition. Our class was small to begin with, as three-year men became Seniors, thereby depleting the already thin ranks. The officers elected were — Milton Hindle President Parker H. Del Plaine Vice-President William D. Hollstein Secretary and Treasurer Maurice S. Baker Representative Executive Council Our athletic talent was quite limited, thus preventing us from having a team, either in football or basketball, but we did maintain our record in studies, as shown by our mid-year and final reports. Pernor Jiear At last we arrived at the mile-post which we had longed to see for three whole years. We were Seniors! Our ranks were enlarged by drafts of men from the manufacturing courses, and all started out to make their last year the happiest and best one of all. In every athletic activity we were well represented, even in the gentle art of pugilism - - this class being represented by Puncho Villa. Now that mid-years are over, we are all looking forward to a successful closing of our days at Lowell Textile, and to futures that will reflect honor to our Alma Mater. 30 THE PICKOUT 1 !) 2 5 CLARENCE ALFRED ANDERSON Norwood, Massachusetts ANDY A. S. M. E. % 3, In the fall of nineteen twenty, a meek little fellow ventured forth from the small town of Norwood, Massachusetts. His eyes opened with wonder when he beheld our beautiful School on the banks of the Merrimack, and when he finally reached the Registrar ' s desk, he had quite forgotten he had a voice, and his knees would persist in shaking. His voice has not fully recovered from the shock, but nevertheless his body has mor e than recovered from the first shocks of the strenuous life. We all note with surprise and despair how fat Andy is getting. We agree with Herbie Ball that candy should not be eaten by the cart- load. We will say that Andy is apparently a calm, quiet sort of a chap, but, considering some of the jokes that have been played in the Senior Engineering Room, Andy is not as innocent as he would have us think. He evidently believes in the motto, I have two ears and one mouth and should use both proportionately, for he never gives anyone away, and claims he takes no part in any of the fun. Yes, Andy, we believe you. As to his attraction to the fairer sex, we cannot say. But, oh, dear me! If a girl just looks at him or says one word -- how red he does get. He sure can blush better than most girls. Of the future in store for Andy, we know not, but certainly wish him the best of luck in all he undertakes. We know Andy never gives up because he ' s dis- couraged, and therefore we feel certain that his persistence will certainly never go astray in the years to come. Good luck, Andy, and hearty wishes for a business career. 31 THE PICKOUT 19 2 5 WILLIAM VINCENT ANTULONIS Stoughton, Massachusetts A K I BILL SCOOP THE PRESS ANTY ZBYSKO Text 2, 3 Basketball 2, 3 Class Basketball 1, 2 Football 1, 2 Baseball 2 Class Football 1, 2 Pickout 2 It ' s too bad to have to admit it, but this fellow is another contribution from Sheik McKay- town, which Rand McNally calls Stoughton, Mass. Bill came to Lowell to conquer new fields, and give the folks back home a rest, but Benny got lonesome and came along, too. During the course of events connected with that strange word - - study, Bill decided that the best place for him was in the Design department, where he would be far away from those fateful rooms, 361 and 365. Bill must have felt some unknown attraction, for he is still a daily visitor in those rooms. However, Scoop has been a faithful student and considerable credit must be paid him for having elected to be supervised by good old Heinle. Much of Bill ' s outside life is known, but, without lingering on the subject too long, it could be said that his standing with the fair sex has risen to no mean point. He has often been seen in exhibition dances with the 1925 Queen of Lowell, which proves that his popularity extends far and wide. Aside from scholastic work, Bill has shown his abilities in the three major sports. He hasn ' t been a wizard, but he has worked hard and diligently and has often proved of value to the teams. The Text has been one of his worries throughout the past year. The position of Editor has allowed Bill to re-organize the paper and place it on its feet again. We compliment you, Scoop, on your efforts, and hope you will be rewarded by seeing the Text ' s development a rapid one. We are sure that Bill ' s enviable record will go with him after school life is over, and with his customary zeal and vigor, success is easily a captive. .4 man so various that he seemed to be Not one, but all mankind ' s epitome. — Dryden 32 THE PICKOUT 1 !) 2 5 MAURICE SIDNEY B A K E R Dorchester, Massachusetts PLOTZ WINDY BAKE PEST aRRHENIUS ' Textile Show 1, 3 Show Business Manager 4 Football Manager 4 Executive Council 3, 4 A.

Apparently the change has worked a miracle, for he finds it impos- sible to reach the age of twenty-one, which is proved by his vouchers to the Boston and Maine Railroad. Since coming to L. T. S., he has been very active in the management of the school ' s various activities; he even modestly volunteered his services to President Eames to help him run the school — on the profit-sharing plan. However, he declares that he wishes to do it solely for the honor and not for the shekels. He is the Beau Brummel of the class, both in looks and in dress. In studies he is exceptional, having perfected the Grafite System while commuting. Added to this, he is, next to Villa, our most famous pugilist. He has one decision to his credit — ask Morrison ! With all his greatness, he still finds time to make many friends, all of whom wish him all sorts of success when he graduates. Then he will talk — good God! how he will talk! — Lee 33 THE PICKOUT 1 9 2 5 ALBERT NATHANIEL BURMON Brookline, Massachusetts A K ALBUMEN AL SHODDY KING Textile Show 2 Hold everything a minute, friends! Don ' t crowd too much — this is Al Burmon of Brookline; queer, because he used to know all the cagey girls in town, but knows only one now; and queer, because he goes to bed every night before one o ' clock. It isn ' t everybody who can have such an honorable mention, but it sounds better in print than to hear him tell it. Al landed here back in 1921 with a varied lot of peculiar looking people, and was noticeable from the first because he was so humorous (?) and could laugh so much at his own jokes that his audiences didn ' t know whether he laughed at the joke or at them. If you ever told Al about any wild experiences of yours, they would seem very mild compared to his, for his experiences have been wilder and worse than those of anyone else. Al has been a faithful student, conscientious from the start of his career, although he has had a few tough breaks. It has been a difficult task to master some of the Math, mysteries that the amiable Judd and Pihl have put before him, but by persistent concentration he has succeeded. His many other subjects, too, he has gone into with that same spirit, which will prove an asset to him when climbing the ladder of success. Just why Al is making out so well is attributed to only one fact — one of those Delaware peaches who is encouraging him along so much that he just naturally does well.

With this thought in mind he joined Herbie Ball ' s corps, and after a year and a half he suddenly became aware of the fact that he was a better student than he had ever imagined he was. Be- cause of this imagination, he immediately enlisted in the Wool course under Eddie Barker, and set about the business of learning the whys and wherefores of the woolen and worsted industry. Russ sure is a great boy with the fair sex. Many a time has his heart been lost to some fair damsel. Our hero is a frequent visitor at Rogers Hall, and his engaging map is well-known to the students there. It is rumored that he uses up three fountain pens a month. Now, don ' t mis- understand me — those pens are not consumed by writing English themes. Accord- ing to J. G. Dow, Nick ' s English is his avocation rather than his vocation. Lowell and Lawrence, the Scylla and Charybdis of Massachusetts, have claimed the Giant as their own. Nick ' s long list of feminine admirers has been greatly added to by his daily jaunts on the B. and M. railroad. While at school, Nick has made many friends, and his place will be a hard one to fill. His smiling face and his well-known phrase, Ha, ha, joke-over, will be missed around the school. In June, Russ steps out upon his career, and we all wish him success, and we know he will be a credit to our Alma Mater. Happy the man and happy he alone; He who can call today his own; He who secure within can say: ' Tomorrow, do thy tvorst, for I have lived today.

He came to Textile with Mr. Crowe in the fall of 1921 and has been going around with him ever since. Hence he is known to his fellow Chemists, and justly so, as The faithful follower of Crowe. Raphael has pursued his subjects with much enthusiasm. In fact, he has been so enthusiastic about a few of them that he has found time to look into them for a second time. At this time he is about to take up once more the study of Economics, after which he hopes to be able to answer the ( I question Why don ' t they make those vests llJla longer? He not only pursues his studies in the day- time but at night also; and for this reason this biography and characteristic pose may be the means of selling a Pickout to the men enlisted in the night courses. One of the outstanding characteristics of the gentleman in question is the fact that he has very few bad habits. He neither smokes, drinks, nor chews. If it had not been for this fourth year we could have stopped there. In the meantime, however, Crowe has become an assistant instructor, which gives him less time to dictate fatherly advice. Cohen takes advantage of this, and seeks to amuse himself in his spare time, which is now every evening. Now the question is — what does he do? Nothing less than to shake his feet with the fair sex, is the answer. There is no particular harm in this unless you connect it with the place at which he shakes ' em, namely, — the Commodore. The place and not the act is what brought disgrace upon his class. His other faults we shall not mention, as they are common to ninety-nine out of every hundred of us. Of his future, time alone will tell. As a class we see bright prospects in store for him and wish him the best of success in social as well as business life. On with the dance, let joy be unconfined. — ■ Byron 36 Ill E P I C KO l T 1 9 2 5 JOSEPH BAILEY JOHN CROWE Lowell, Massachusetts JOE DUKE PROFESSOR Textile Show 4 A. A. T. C. C. Assistant Instructor, Quantitative Analysis A graduate of the local high school, Joe decided, both for himself and for his shadow, Cohen, that their higher education would be pursued in their own city, and so they were found, one fair September morn, timidly migrating up Moody street, hand in hand. After paying their respects to our fair Registrar, and being somewhat reassured by her sympathetic attitude, the two inseparables settled down to the long grind of the chemistry course. Our Duke has surely made good here, for he has very clearly demonstrated his unusual ability to grasp the intricate problems of chemistry. Having won all the prizes possible in his first three years, Joe earned the reward that was finally given to him, the position of assistant instructor in Quanti- tative Analysis. His characteristic willingness to lend a hand has served him well in this position. J. Bailey is quite a favorite among the fair sex, partly because he holds the title of the best dressed man of the class. Contrary to our expectations, it is rumored that Joe has finally lost his heart, not to Cohen, but to one of the evening- course co-eds. This has been the one disappointing feature of his Textile career. Joe is the champion bantam-weight of our class, and it is regretted that he is so much lighter than our heavyweight, Luis Pancho Villa, since a pugilistic en- counter between the Duke of Lowell and the Marquis of Mexico would be well worth seeing. Unfortunately, the difference in weights is too great and the battle of skill and brawn could not be staged. We may be sure, however, that Professor Joe will sally forth into the business world, not with a chip on his shoulder, but with a firm determination to make good, and he may rest assured that the best wishes of his classmates go with him. 37 THE PICKOUT 19 2 5 PARKER HAYWARD DEL PLAINE Lowell, Massachusetts DEL P.II.D. THE BENEDICT KID SILK A. A. T. C. C. 2, 3, 4 Class Vice-President 3 Class Football 1, 2 Inter-Fraternity Council 4 Textile Show 4 Pickout 3, 4 After seeing the world via Illinois and France, Del decided to settle down in Lowell and attend Textile. He prepared at the University of Illinois, and sundry other schools. While a student at the U. of I., Del decided that studying was not the only thing in a college career, so he packed his bag and left for France to — see the French women. Yes, Kid Silk ' was in the war. He will always tell you that the French have something to remem- ber him by, as he left part of his leg there. Del ' s aggressiveness and studiousness have long been the marvel of the class. However, in the classes conducted by our esteemed Dr. Chapin, Del knew no equal. The ease with which he absorbed Physical Chemistry was the cause of more than one student ' s burning the midnight oil in order that P.H.D. should not appear too brilliant. The Benedict has spent much time on artificial silk and is now considered one of the local authorities on the subject. His attention to the work has won him kind words from Prof. Olney, who has charge of the work. We always knew Del had a charming manner and a pleasing personality, but we were delightfully surprised when we learned that he had joined the ranks of the Benedicts. From the latest reports we hear that he is now a model husband. Del Plaine ' s perseverance and aggressiveness will go a long way in this world of strife. If friends who have been with him for four years can judge, he will soon be seen as a beacon shining on a world of satellites. May the same spirit that has kept him at Textile stay with him, and may he fear not. 38 THE lMCKOl ' T 1 9 2 5 HOWARD POOL DERRICKSON Millville, Delaware on HOWIE DKKKICK h ' ard ' Howie joined us in the fall of ' 23 and registered for the cotton course. The usual enforced activities kept hi m interested for a short time after regis- tration, and he then settled down to the pursuit of knowledge, finding diversions in the form of school activities and an occasional show. Even now we cannot tell whether or not he took an active interest in the other sex so early in the college year. We do know that H ' ard visited Providence during vacations, and that his visits were not purely of a business nature. Springtime and the lure of The Boulevard fitted in with Howard ' s liking for outdoor exercise, and it is said that on one beautiful spring day, he personally conducted a mixed party on a tour of the waterworks. Perhaps this had something to do with his social activities in Lowell. At any rate, it is our first evidence that he stepped out occasionally. Cotton is Derrick ' s pet subject. He knows it cold because he has had a great deal of practical experience and has been a faithful student of Steve Smith ' s teachings. This year he has followed a special course all his own in order to have more time to give to this subject. Navigation also holds much interest for Howie, as he is a licensed first mate, and has spent several summers on coast- wise steamers between Maine and the Gulf of Mexico. We have found Howard a fine companion for our leisure hours, and an earnest worker when there is something to be accomplished. He has always taken an active interest in school activities and has made a host of friends among us. What more can we say, except to wish him the best of luck as he tackles the outside world? 39 THE PICKOtIT 19 2 5 DOROTHY MYRTA ELLIS Lowell, Massachusetts DOT CAPTAIN A. S. M. E. 2, 3, 4 Class Secretary 1 Much has been said in the past few years about the invasion of women into the field of men ' s activities. Women are now holding important state executive positions. Everywhere women are superseding men. Why not in the field of engin- eering? So thought Dorothy away back in the days when militant women were flaunting their banners before a surprised public. Therefore Dorothy, nothing daunted, enrolled with the best of them all as a pioneer in a strange field. The way has been long and arduous, but Dot faltered not. Through the machine shop, in among the strange pieces of machinery in the engineering lab., even through the dark and dismal chambers of the boiler Dot has gone bravely on. Her smile and sunny nature have carried her through many a trial. Even Professor Lowe ' s wool course did not dismay her. Although Dot has worked hard and long, she still found time for other things to do. It is rumored that she has been training an army of girls in preparation for the next war. She says the men are no longer needed. However, we feel certain that the Captain will attain the goal that she has set for herself in her chosen field, and one and all wish her Godspeed. 40 THE PICK OUT 1 !) 2 5 II W A R 1) V A R N U M F LETCHER Lowell, Massachusetts on HOWIE MARTEENEE FLETCH LES TILLIE COSY Textile Show 2 Of course, everyone has heard the story of David and Goliath, hut I daresay that there are no living persons today who realize that the name David means, in reality, Fletch. This knowledge has come to the author through years of tireless and unlimited research. David, I have learned, stammered slightly, and it happened that when anyone asked him his name, he invariably answered — Er, Fletch. Hence, he soon became known as Erfletch, which has changed throughout the ages to Fletcher. Indeed, are there any of us who cannot picture Fletch confronting the giant Goliath, holding a slingshot, crudely fashioned from a spare tire, in one hand, and gripping in the other the halter of his trusty Ford, which grazed calmly nearby? Howie began playing the game cosy his first day of school. Being a native of this fair city, he knew of the pleasant little reception the sophs were planning for him as well as the other freshmen. Cosy argued that there wouldn ' t be any fun for him in the parade, as he knew there would be one, and all the joy of being sur- prised was gone, so he decided to give his place in the parade to some other frosh. Women? Never, says Les, won ' t have anything to do with ' em. In this he has been but partly right. The women apparently took a different view of the case, so poor little Les was constantly besieged by the heartless. Now look at him, the envy of every red-blooded fellow in the school. Why? Probably because he has so many of the ladies in the Acre on his calling list. Now that we ' ve had our fun, I ' m sure that we can rise and join in this toast together- We wish you all the health, wealth, and happiness in the world, Howie, and may you have as much success in conquering the modern Goliath of industry, as the Fletch of ancient times had with the Goliath of old. 41 THE PICKOUT GEORGE HARRY GWINNELL Pittsfield, Massachusetts AK ]) doc g. harry georgie hank hoot hamlet gwinnie seagull gwiggles Textile Show 1, 2 Pickout 2 Why anyone with a face like this ever decided that Lowell was the only place for him to gain the objective of his chosen field, remains a mystery to us all. However, Harry got here from the Berk- shires after a long and tedious trip across the state. At first, Harry seemed to be one of those bashful, unassuming chaps who would never allow himself to be distracted from his lessons; but as time went on he began to bud out in various circles where I ' r gr the fairer sex were plentiful. It wasn ' t long before 9 : j all the girls at Rogers Hall just raved about him. my x As a student, Harry showed the instructors J • j£ M that he knew how to study. His previous knowl- ■ - ' ■ , edge along textile lines has helped him in always Al KHh?: being one of the leaders in scholastic standing of his class. His enthusiasm and eagerness for further knowledge will reward him by fitting him to be a big man in this generation. This promising young Textile student is also reported to be the only man, this side of the Parthenon, who has ever tamed seagulls and coo-coo birds. It took him a long time to do it, but he finally succeeded, and whenever the seagulls are hanging- overhead, Harry is simply overcome at the chance to tame more. Don ' t for one minute think that all of Harry ' s time is spent in study. It has been noticeable that Harry has become more or less interested in a certain young lady in his home town. It seems as if T would accept nothing less than a twenty- page letter from him. Oh yes, it must be quite serious when G. Harry expects a long letter every day. Now that your whole three years at L. T. S. are over, Harry, go your way and be as steadfast, true and square as you have been here at school, and you will continue to win the admiration and respect of us and of those whom you meet. Good luck to you, Harry, in whatever you chose to be your life-work! Too early seen unknown, and known too late. — Shakespeare 42 THE PICK OUT 1 9 2 5 FREDERICK WILLIAM HIBBARD Lawrence, Massachusetts on ' DUCKER FRED A. A. T. C. C. % 3, 4 Four ye ars ago Al Stearns of Phillips- Andover turned loose the person whose photograph adorns this page, having despaired of making a mathematician of him. That fall he started commuting to the world ' s largest Textile School. Herbie Ball ' s notorious staff of math, instructors were the one and only attraction the school held for him, — in fact it was only after a great struggle that he was able to leave them. The last year and a half he has had Physical Chemistry. At the end of the first half he got married. The relation between the two we do not care to state. Next to making tea, at which he considers himself an expert, his favorite sport is commuting. This is due to his great fondness for South Law- rence, a liking which we cannot understand unless it is because he likes the sparkling drinking water for which Lawrence is famous. For about three years he commuted to Boston and nearby cities during week-ends also. He got so he could tell off-hand all the trains on the Portland Division of the B. and M., where they stopped, the number of the engine, and the Conductor ' s name. The total number of miles he traveled in calling on a certain charming young nurse exceed by only seven the number of words in one of A. K. Johnson ' s lectures. (Some distance!) Last summer he took the fatal step and joined the Benedicts ' Club. In some respects it has wrought vast improvements. We feel sure that Ducker will make his mark in the world, as, for one who understands the principles of Physical Chemistry so well, failure is impossible.

E. % 3, 4 President A. S. M. E. 4 Class President 3 Manager Co-op. 4 Executive Council 3 Ladies and gentlemen, permit us to present the father of our class, officially addressed as Sir and familiarly as Papa. Like all fathers aspiring for great things, he took the Engineering course. His greatest ambition was to obtain all H ' s on his report card, but unfortunately the cigars did not last. Nevertheless, during his whole four years he never had less than eight of those desirable marks. As manager of the Co-op he has been successful by increasing the general margin of profit. This augurs well, and proves his ability as a scientific manager to be trustworthy. Whenever there was something we did not know, Papa was sure to know it. We have often wondered if there is anything he does not know. He is the accepted Solomon of the class. Papa never bothered much with the fair sex on working days. However, on Saturdays he inspected them figuratively from the Twentieth Century Shoe Parlor. As a result he was never found at home on Sundays. Occasionally Paw- tucket proved to be interesting, but we all have our passing fancies. Nevertheless, for all his evilness, we must give Papa credit for being one of the very few who have worked their way through college and have successfully attained high honors scholastically as well as socially at Textile. Some day we expect to see him at a manager ' s desk, authoritatively giving orders and smoking a Havana with an air of understanding. A light to guide, a rod To check the erring, and reprove.

Those of that select circle known as Senior Engineers know full well what arduous tasks have been accomplished by this energetic young man. Anv task that Bill was given to do he tackled with such vigor that before long he was on the lookout for more worlds to conquer. Witness the list above! Billy has always been an ardent student and ranks high in his class. We would give the other graduates a word of advice to get going in the business world, for before long Old Initiative will be there strong. We wonder how many new sections of fence will be installed this year, and how many new candy factories have been built lately. We will all miss Bill when he goes; he leaves with our best wishes. May his success in the business world be as big as it was at Textile. 45 THE PICKOUT 1 9 2 .5 GEORGE JOSEPH LA RIVIERE Danielson, Connecticut A K$ GUM-SHOE PETE MIKE BLONDY George comes direct from the wilds of Connecti- cut. Hiekish? -- No, quite the reverse. His physical appearance and entrancing personality make up the type which is the answer to a maiden ' s prayer, and, running true to form, he makes the most of his opportunities. There is no doubt that there will be many broken-hearted Lowell girls in June. Another favorite pastime of Mike ' s is the popu- RJj lar game of bridge. He took to it as a fish to ■ water, and at present he considers himself as pro- M ficient as possible. There is a rumor about school M ' that George will broach the subject of bridge to Mr. ■ J| Eames and endeavor to convince him to give it a ■■£J1HM-- MH place on the schedule. Of course, he will without the slightest hesitation volunteer to head that department. We ' re all behind him on that! The serious side of our leading cotton man is just as interesting. His superiority in Cotton and Weaving is a well-known fact. It is a by-word with his classmates whenever a difficulty arises to ask George, he knows. There exists in him a great thirst for knowledge. Observing that it was impossible for him to get certain subjects in his day-course, he immediately enrolled in night-school and stuck to it. His pleasing personality and his faculty of quickly grasping new ideas com- bined with his perseverance, will undoubtedly earn him a position of importance in the Textile industry. And gladly wolde he leme and gladly t ' eche. — Chaucer 46 THK PICK OUT 1 ) 2 5 EDWARD EARL L I N S E Y Maiden, Massachusetts 2Q? ED SHORTY JOE SNOOPY LINSEY Football 3 Show Stage Manager 4 Textile Show 2, 3 Baseball 2, 3 This so-called human made a good attempt at breaking the freshman line three years ago, and would have been successful had his feet been longer. Yes, Earl has short feet, but it is these same short feet flying down the gridiron or around the baselines that keep the sidelines cheering. These short feet and his snake-like body kept the Middlebury giants on their toes until they became so exasperated that they had to bump him off. Ed hails from the famous city of Maiden, and is well known there because of his fiery temper, which is immediately followed by a display of flying fists. The men of the great open spaces fear him, but the maidens — well, that is another story. Shorty is not a ladies ' man, but a he-man all the way through. If anyone wants a favor done, he can be sure Ed will help him out. He is indeed a friend in need. For instance, if one wants some information on the Bradford or French systems he has only to ask Professor Linsey about it. After that it ' s all over, -- there isn ' t any more. This year he has been given the stage-managership of the show, and we may be sure the scenery will be right. On second thought, -- perhaps we should envy his chance to be back-stage with the girls. Edward Earl wishes to announce, also, that he has been taking dancing lessons at an out-of-town institution, so that, in future, the line of applicants for a dance with him will form on the right, and please do not push. 47 THE PICKOUT 1925 WALTER WELLINGTON MARTIN West Somerville, Massachusetts on JOE WALT BULL IwW Class Football 3 What a sad day for Somerville and what a bright day for the city of Lowell when Little Joe packed his toothbrush and bottle of Sta-Comb and started out on his search for knowledge ! Four years have gone to prove the importance of this event. On learning of his desire to pursue the Wool Course, Eddie Barker and Hank Ply, together with Limie Lowe and Phil Machon, made ready his welcome. It was one that Walt will not soon forget. Joe also gave them proof that their interest was not in vain as he began to teach us all how studies are passed in his metropolis. Alack and alas! That was not all that he showed us, as is found in one of his many nicknames, Bull. What a wonder he is at it! It does not matter whether it is studi es or subjects of interest to the rest of the boys, Joe is always there with his version. It has been said that if all of Bull ' s stories were laid out end to end they would reach several times around the world, and there would still be enough to go to Lawrence and back. The one time that we know of when he had nothing to say was when he fell asleep at a houseparty. Probably most of us know Walt as the little boy with the dash and the fire, handling the soup in the lunch room. Joe has been there over two years now, and we wonder whether he is there just for something to do, or, especially this year, for some other reason? We have shown you just a bit of Joe ' s character, his determination and grit, as well as his everlasting line of chatter. We leave it to the rest of the bo ys — How can a man like that help but go big outside in the big tent? 48 THE PICKOUT 1 !) 2 5 H A YEN ASA MORRISON Merrimac, Massachusetts on haven A. A. T. C. C. After graduating from Haverhill High School, Haven came to Lowell from the big town of Merri- mac. took one look at our college, and was soon telling Mr. Dow why he had entered. Professor Ball ' s lecture on the mreits of the Engineering course did not impress him sufficiently, so he took up chemistry. This gentleman ' s claim to fame is based on several important facts, any one of which would suffice to give him prestige. First of all, he has always been near the head of his class in scholastic honors. He has held a high place on the honor list ever since his first appearance at Textile. Besides this, he was awarded the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanics Association scholarship. Don ' t think that he ' s a grind, though, for he spent far more time visiting in Pawtucketville than he did on studies. In the second place. Haven has done much to help make the chemists of 192,5 famous for their practical jokes. Although a conscientious worker, he has helped to earn for his class the title of playful chemists. For instance, he once helped to conduct an experiment to determine the action of a caustic soda solution on a felt hat. Although this experiment had some interesting results, a full account of it has not yet been published. Last, but by no means least, Haven enjoys the distinction of being the only man in the class who is the father of a boy. He is proud of this fact, but justly so, and we can excuse him if he does like to tell us of his husky son, occasionally. Even this has not lowered his scholastic record, however, for he is still among the leaders of his class and is on the President ' s list. Haven has been a favorite with his classmates because of the fine qualities which he has shown, and we are sure that these qualities will eventually bring him to the success that he deserves. 49 THE PICKOUT 19-25 GEORGE WHITWELL PIERCE Somerville, Massachusetts Class President 4 Class Basketball 1, 2 WHIT President A. A. T. C. C. 4 Secretary-Treasurer A. A. T. C. C. 3 George came to the Textile School after having been polished for half a year at the University of Maine. Due to the fact that he is married, Whit does not step out with his classmates, as he ' d much rather stay at home with his wife in Somerville. Pierce gained his positions as President of his class and of the American Association of Textile Colorists and Chemists (Junior Section) by reason of his great popularity and his untiring efforts in the Chemistry Department. He has been charac- terized by his classmates as the neatest article in the Chemiistry class. He is undoubtedly the best dresser, having beaten Maurice Baker by one vote in the recent contest. He is also the possessor of an inexhaustible sense of humor; he is always ready with a joke and never fails to apply it to somebody else. Consequently, as a kidder he has no equal in the class. As Mr. Beattie recently remarked, Never take that man Pierce seriously; he is a New England humorist. We do not know into what branch of the chemical industry he is going, but we. are sure that he will be one of the most successful graduates of the school, due to his wonderful personality and his willingness to work. We all wish him the best of luck. His life was gentle, and the elements So 7nixed in him, that Nature might stand up And say to all the world, ' This was a man. — Shakespeare 50 THE PICKOUT 19 25 E D N A R A Y Manistee, Michigan EDDIE On Registration Day in 1923 some of us noticed an unusual flash of bright color in the registrar ' s office. A second look informed us that Miss Ray had arrived. The news traveled like wildfire, and it was not long before the whole school knew that another had joined the ranks of our co-eds. Edna started in with a special course which included quite a bit of work in the Chemistry laboratories. Those who know the chem. labs will understand that they are enough to try the good nature of any co-ed, but the chemists all agree that she proved herself a good sport in every way. Perhaps the course did not suit her, or it may have been that the instructors or the students in the Design department were more to her liking. For some such reason, she changed to the course which Heinie Bachmann so ably directs. Here, apparently, she found subjects which suited her, for she returned this year to learn more of the intricacies of textile design. Edna has quite a reputation as a candy maker. Somewhere, it may have been in those terrible chem. labs, she learned this art and learned it well, according to those who have been fortunate enough to sample her confections. This, no doubt, accounts partly for her popularity. She has also taken much interest in all of the school activities, and there are few games or other events which she has missed. Edna is leaving us this year to find new worlds to conquer, and she takes with her our best wishes for her future success.

This leaves us high and dry as far as this Beer-City baby is concerned. Al- though he claims Milwaukee as his home, we doubt it, for no one here ever smelt anything stronger than Coca-Cola on his breath. And, if he ever has done anything bad it was so bad we can ' t print it here for the hungry world to see. Socrates has various aspirations in the athletic line. In winter he may be found wrenching his knees on the ski-jump of Rogers Hall, and in summer he ' s prac- ticing diving at a girls ' camp. But perhaps he is best known for his hunting ability. This he con- fines to the woods of Nova Scotia and the wilds of Brookline. However, Robbie is the man who makes the minutes count; in fact, he usually makes them count twice. He has waded through his courses here as though it were kindergarten work for him. Besides playing football for three years and doing part of the diving for the swimming team, he has the honor (or dishonor) of being the Editor-in-chief of this Pic kout. How he gets away with it, and then on top of it manages to compile a Phi Beta average is a crowning mystery to us all. 52 THE IMCKOl ' T 1 1) 2 5 CARL SETH SANDLUND Nashua, New Hampshire on CARL Class Football 2 E. 4 SCOOP SANDY A. S. M. E. 2, 8, 4 Senior Member A. S. M. After serious thought Carl gave up the idea of entering the University of New Hampshire to become a farmer boy and decided to become a high light iu the Engineering world. Four years ago, one memorable September morn, he journeyed down from Nashua and said How do to his future lord and master, Herbie Ball. Now, after four long years, Carl has been rewarded — he is the pride of the Engineers. One of Scoop ' s accomplishments is his ability to deal a wicked hand of cards. Every noon he and the other members of the faithful Hedge gang get together and wage a bloodless war (the stakes are one-half a match a point). They used to play rummy, but that got too steep, so they progressed from that to pitch, and ended up with bridge. Only Chemists and Engineers are allowed to participate. Sandy has one ambition which he vows he ' ll satisfy in the near future: to go to a big city, like New York, and see all the big buildings ' n ' everything. (The latter being Artists and Models, etc.) This has come about through the many good reports brought back by the delegates to the last A. S. M. E. Convention. Too bad Carl wasn ' t with them! Scoop has certainly made a host of friends here at Textile who will not forget his charming personality for many years to come. It has indeed been a pleasure to us to have been his intimate associates. Throughout his course he has been a faithful worker, never failing to do his part, hard or easy. The inevitable result will be found in his certain success. Here ' s wishing you the best of luck, Carl! Not Heaven itself upon the past has power; But ivhat has been, has been, and I have had my hour. — Dryden 53 THE PICKOUT 19 25 ROBERT EDWARD SARGENT Haverhill, Massachusetts BOBBY A. A. T. C. C. Our friend Bobby migrated from Haverhill in 1921 and immediately adopted chemistry as his hobby. He applied himself so assiduously that at the end of the first year we found he had won first honors in Chemistry subjects. During his second year he changed somewhat. This may be due to the fact that he commuted on the 5.15. You see, the Normal School girls also use that train, so Bobby ' s interest was apparently detracted from his studies, and he no longer kept grinding night and day. Many a timid victim has been led astray in this way by pretty women, and it is now rumored that he has scores of broken hearts to his credit. Bobby has added another vice, that of drinking tea, to his list of accomplishments. He now is an expert in the art of preparing a tasty cup of the Englishman ' s beverage, and has even been known to suspend operations in the laboratory to indulge in a little refreshment. Imagine anyone violating the sanctity of Professor Beattie ' s labora- tory with a china teapot! This year, Bobby has acquired much notoriety as the instigator of some of the terrible odors which have pervaded the atmosphere of the chemistry side at various times. If the purpose of his investigations is to discover the most obnoxious smell, he has attained a degree of success which would more than satisfy most of us. Now that our student days are nearly over, Bobby will soon be leaving us, but we ' ll never forget him. He has been our good and true friend, and we wish him the best of luck. 54 THE PICKOUT 1 !) 2 5 ANDREW AUGUSTINE SCANLON Lawrence, Massachusetts A K$ A. A. T. C. C. Captain Baseball 4 ANDY Football 2 Baseball 1, % 3, 4 It was indeed a very lucky day for Professor Olney when in 1916 Andrew A. Scanlon migrated to Lowell Textile School from Lawrence — the city famed for its pure drinking water — to take his Chemistry course. Andy remained two years with us. Then he went to Villanova and finally to work, but, in time, he became lonesome again for Lowell Textile, so in 1923, like the prodigal son that he was, he returned to the fold. But how he had changed! His calm- ness and gentleness of temper have endeared him to everyone in the Chemistry department, — Oh yes! There is one thing, however, which causes him to become furious, and that is to see anyone play- ing cards, for oh! how he hates the sight of cards. Andy ' s hobbies are many; some of which are giving Professor Barker a few pointers on Textile Testing and trying to tell the difference between pink and white ice cream. His favorite hobby, however, is doing advanced work in Industrial Chemistry and Dye Laboratories, and anyone who may be going through these two departments any noon hour will surely find him there, working away happily. From the above, it might be supposed that Andy does nothing but work and study, but such is not the case, as he finds time to play football and baseball. He is the bowling champ of the chemists and is known throughout the state as a clog and soft-shoe dancer. Seriously, though, Andy is of the type that makes and holds true friends. He has a positive personality; he is of the executive type of man and is one who is bound to succeed. Go forth, Andy; the class of 1925 wishes you success and knows that you will obtain it. 55 THE PICKOUT 1 925 NAHMAN SHENKER New York City, New York EMMIE NORM SHEIK Basketball 1, 2, 3 Norman is one of the most quiet and reliable members of our class. Upon having graduated from the New York Textile School, he decided upon the textile industry as his life ' s work and matriculated at L. T. S., where he was allured by Heinle Bachmann ' s Design course, and at present can be safely called the King of the one up and one down department. As a student this boy is unconquerable. He has for the past three years confined his lecture notes to but a few pages, a notable achievement not as yet duplicated. Exams are the only things that cause this sturdy young man to tremble, but when the bombardment is over, we notice that the office reports very creditable grades. To use his own expression, Jeekers Snippers, he is one fine fellow, who, once out in the business world, will always prove himself the same sincere, genial, level-headed, deep-thinking gentleman we found him to be. With such qualities how could he be better prepared to meet well-deserved success ? As proper man as ever trod upon neat ' s leather. — Shakespeare THE PICKOUT 19 2 5 BENJAMIN SOMERS Brookline, Massachusetts BEN S. S. CHUBBY On a crisp September day back in 1922 a bright-eyed, eager youth registered at Lowell Textile School. He immediately showed his clever- ness by outguessing the Sophomores at the Fresh- man parade. Ben calmly watched the parade. After graduating from Boston English High, Chubby became a candidate for Technology. He took the College Board Exams, but they did not please him, so he decided to become a disciple of Eddie Barker. A very wise choice it proved to be, for he is now a master of all the tricks of a sheep ' s cover. One of our hero ' s outstanding features is his aspiration to become a champion bridge-whist player. Every noon for three years he could be seen in the T. C. A. room, trying to follow Mr. Hoyle ' s rules. We hope that some day he succeeds. The world is waiting with open arms for such men as Ben Somers will make. He will face every problem in the same fearless manner in which he attacked his examinations. He does not shirk hard work, but goes more than half-way to meet it, and when he does meet it he fights until it is successfully vanquished. All that is now left to say of Ben is that we sincerely extend our heartiest desire for his immediate success in anything which he undertakes. We ' ll grant altho he had much wit He teas very shy of using it.

This, of course, means that our subject is not of Yorkshire, even though he might like us to think so. In his early days at the institution on the banks of the Merrimack, the natural ability of Harry was evidenced by the quality of the yarns that he spun. Many a merry burst of laughter could be traced from his entertaining reminiscences. Many of us will probably remember that Harry piloted his class through that period when, as Freshmen, they needed a fatherly hand of guidance. Sut saw that none of his mates faltered on the banks of the Green River and agreed that Johnny Walker was the greatest inspiration of all. His ability as a composer was clearly shown in those two great compositions, The King of England, and The Hun- dredth Man. Both of these pieces broke all box office records and will be favorites to the end of time. During his last year, Harry spent much time on Bacardi, an opera in two quartos. Football, baseball, basketball, and seven and a half, as well as other pastimes, have had in Harry a staunch supporter who will surely be missed — and so the spell of Harry ' s presence at Textile is past. We ' re sorry to see you leave us, old timer, and here ' s tinkling the glasses of friendly toasts and tales to one we hope to see again. 58 T II E P I C K O U T 1 ) 2 5 HARRY L e R O Y S W A I N Kent, Ohio ' OHIO ' KENT Cheer Leader 1, 2 Textile Show 2 Glee Club 3 HARRY Class Treasurer 2 Assistant Instructor in Weaving Secretary T. C. A. Class Football 1, 2 Thirty-two miles south of Cleveland, Ohio, as the peacocks fly, is a little hamlet called Kent. It was three years ago that the village store lost one of its customers when Harry L. decided to find out a little more about the cotton he read about in his Sunday School books. So, with a banjo in a bag and bedecked in a nightshirt, our hero dusted the roads all the way to Lowell. It was not long before many were wondering where the strains of a banjo were coming from, and soon the owner became one of the popular members of the class. The T. C. A. monopolized his strumming abilities and he worked well in all the functions of that organization. He is one of those who, having a quiet temper- ament, mind their own business. The old maxim about still waters running deep truly is proven by his nibs. His three years here have been successful academically, and have merited him a position as assist- ant instructor, thus giving him another year in our midst. After that, the Cotton department will have to shut down. Harry enjoys a good time and good company, like the rest of us, and fully realizes that all work and no play make Jack a dull boy. Speaking of good company, we expect Kent will be a smaller place after next year, and what then? Even the Prince of Wales falls once in a while — but Harry didn ' t fall from a horse! Go to it, Kid, say we. You have proven yourself to be a master of your courses and a master at friendship. May you be a master among men in your future days! And, don ' t forget, we ' re watching you. 7 hold he loves me best that calls me ' Kent. ' — Heywood 59 THE PICKOUT 1 925 LUIE LUIS JORGE VILLA Medellin, Colombia, S. A. PEDRO PANCHO JIMMY MURPHY ' Football 2 A. A. T. C. C. 3, 4 Villa prepared for college at Bordentown Military Institute, and upon graduating went to Columbia University, where he spent nearly three exciting years. It was during his third year there that Luie was approached by a committee of theatrical producers headed by Flo Zeigfeld, who earnestly pleaded with him to desist from lur- ing the most beautiful and popular stars (female) from their various productions. Otherwise, it was pointed out, all performances of the big shows would have to stop. So our big-hearted chemist, being well aware of his irresistible personality, decided that the only way for the Follies, etc., to continue was for him to leave the big city. Thus it happened that L. T. S. may number among her sons Luis J. Villa. His presence has been guarded against by the managers of the Textile Shows, who have taken great care that he does not meet any of their actresses. Pedro, being determined to keep his resolve to leave the women alone, lost himself in hard work, and by the end of his first year in the Quant. Lab. had out- stripped his classmates in the analysis of the great unknowns handed out by Mr. Fickett. Besides being the most graceful and accomplished dancer and the fastest and most reckless automobile driver in the class, Pancho is also the uncrowned title- holder in the fistic art. He is, to date, credited with one K. O., two draws, and one technical K. O. We understand that he is still looking for another bout. Seriously, however, Villa has been a welcome addition to our class, as is evi- denced by his host of friends. He is, like his brother Bill, safe, capable, square, and a man whose friendship is a thing of value. The glass of fashion, and the mould of form; The observed of all observers.

There, where they get news from the outside world only once a week, it certainly is a miracle that he ever heard of L. T. S. Nevertheless he did, and, mounting old Dobbin, he journeyed to Lowell amidst a cloud of dust. Eddie at once became a favorite with the fellows and has been ever since, as his record shows. Always a gentleman and a scholar, he is a ready booster for the school and its ideals. As he wasn ' t looking for something easy, he enrolled in Herbie ' s Engineering course and he has stuck to it the whole four years. On becoming a member of the A. S. M. E., he at once became an active worker, espe- cially around Convention time. It ' s a strange thing, but he never missed an opportunity of attending the Convention in New York. We suspect that there must have been an added attraction there, as otherwise he never cared to get behind in his work. Between the meetings, they say, he was always to be found at home, feeding the chicks. Menkey is a fine student, although German proved bothersome. When it came to exams there was no one who could compare with him for speed. They say haste makes waste, but this has not held true in his case. We are sure that, when he gets out into the world, the same qualities of quick and brilliant thinking that have made him a leading student will gain him an enviable reputation in whatever he may undertake.

E. 3, 4 After his graduation from the middle school. Boon University, an institute of fame in central China, Wu came to the United States in 1920. To him, to study is rather an interesting pastime. Even the summer vacations are devoted to study. However, he is a frequent visitor to the theaters. In spite of the fact that he did not like movies at first, he is now an enthusiast. His perseverance in overcoming obstacles is well known to his friends; and when he once fixes his aim, he will reach it with unfailing energy. Such good qualities may prove even more helpful in his future enterprises. With the flute he plays melodies reminiscent of his home land. He also plays occasionally on the violin, and will study that instrument more inten- sively when he gets time. In order to better equip himself for the industrial field, he intends to take up Business at Columbia University, after completing the engineering training. 63 THE PICKOUT 1 925 TSUNG-CHIEH WU Shanghai, China A.

Constantly, he has shown us that he is a genius. His name has been always on the list of those who have been excused from the final examinations, and honorably mentioned by the President. He is not only a smart engineer, but also a wonderful violinist. He has played in The Lowell Peoples ' Symphony Orchestra.

Baker President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Executive Council 68 History of Junior Class FRESHM Days: There have been classes entering Lowell Textile School from time immemorial, but none can compare with the Class of 19-26, which entered September 26, 1922. In fact it was a memorable day when we were greeted and welcomed (personally) by our President in the Assembly Hall. Here we learned much of the good old ' L. T. S. spirit. but it was not until the Sophomore class took charge of us that we fully realized what this spirit was. After Prexy ' s address, the Sophs, being organized, ordered us on a tour of the city so that not only might we see the historic points of interest, but that the citizens of Lowell might see what a green looking bunch we were. They had plenty of opportunities for observation of us, as we formed around Page ' s clock, while the more talented members of our class were made to orate and sing from the top of the clock. It was either that the noonday crowds did not appreciate us or that the worthy Sophomores were feeling hungry, that caused our hurried departure for the campus where with difficulty we tried to find our shoes and readjust ourselves to a normal state of being. Thus our first day at Textile was spent . The Sophomores, who were wordly wise, made one grand faux pas when the President of their class acted as moderator at our first class meeting, which was for the purpose of organizing the Class of ' 26. At this meeting temporary officers were drawn, and about one week later we held another meeting at which class officers were elected. Now that we were united, we defied the Class of ' 25, and broke most, if not all of the rules which they had given us. Soon the Faculty, recognizing our high social position, tendered us a reception at which we mingled with our only intellectual superiors. However, we found out that the instructors and professors were just the same as other men, and that they were darn good sports. The next event of special interest was the inter-class football games. Our first game with the Sophs resulted in a 6-6 tie, which was played off at a later date. This time we defeated them 7-0. After the football season had closed the next inter-class sport was basketball, in which the Class of ' 26 defeated the Sophomores 21-9, and later played the Seniors Y night for the championship. Of course our class won 28-16 from the Seniors. Our class also predominated in the swimming meet that night, and as a result of our supremacy in football, basketball and swimming, the Textile Christian Association presented the class with a silver loving cup. Not only were we successful in athletics, but we were also successful as a class when mid-years came. Having hit mid-years, we were next attracted to fraternal matters. Pledging and initiation soon passed, and again we had nothing to do but study. 69 THE PICKOUT 1925 Then came a call for the cast of the show F ' rinstance. This call was well answered by the members of the class. Many obtained either positions on the board of management or on the cast. About four weeks after the show the dreaded finals came. Little did we realize that they would be upon us so soon and as a result a large amount of mid- night oil was spent in making notes and painting designs. However, our fear of finals was abated when we received our marks later in the summer. Sophomore Days: In spite of our long vacation the reopening of college came too soon after the closing. Now we were Sophomores and on Registration Day we marched the Freshies down town to Page ' s clock in the same manner in which we, the year before, had marched. Again the football inter-class series started. This year we were again victorious in our games. We defeated the Freshmen 18-0. Later we defeated the Seniors 6-0, and in so doing we annexed the championship of L. T. S. It seems the Freshmen were determined to put something over on us. This they partly did by capturing our President and taking him to their banquet. How- ever it was not long after Bill Smith ' s disappearance that we seized the Freshman President and held him captive until after the banquet, while through careful diplomacy on our part we traded a member of their class for our President. Our next encounter with the Freshmen occurred on Y night, when they defeated us in basketball. Again midyears were upon us, and although the subjects were more difficult, we came through the ordeal unscathed. Our attention was then drawn again towards the school show, Nothing but the Truth. In this our class was represented on the managing board. With passing of finals and the closing of college for another year it may be said that the Class of ' 26 upheld its previous reputation of high honors, both scholastically and athletically. Junior Days: This year our class has dwindled to about one half of its former size, due to the fact that the three-year men are rated as Seniors. Although our class had diminished, the spirit of the class had not, for many were out for football and basketball, while others were doing work for the Text, Pickout and Glee Club. The Glee Club, a new addition to the social activities, was established this year. Several members of our class have learned to sing so that they might become acquainted with the Normal School girls. Midyears again have passed. The class now looks forward to obtaining more honors this year, and for the best year of all next year, when we shall be Seniors. 70 CD ' S o m c C Ui O M 72 i ■|JM p a , c£ O M 0 a; 5 g S - ' 53 IX! 2 c, O S B$ en o o t— I 1-8 1926 Class; ftoll CanbibateS for degree NAME course Baker, Franz E.

Lussier President Vice-President Treasurer Secretary Executive Council 74 tstorp of opf)omore Clas There are events in every man ' s life that he always holds dear to his memory, certain dates that mean the beginning of another stage of his life. The date that will linger long in the minds of the Class of 1927 is September the twenty-fourth, nineteen twenty-three. This date marks the beginning of our college career, and some of the happiest days of our lives. The first part of the morning of this day was spent in registration. This was a tedious task to most of us, for so much was required and so little seemed to be known. However, the task was soon completed, and we were assembled in the oval to entertain the overbearing Sophomores, who seemed determined to spoil our whole day. After a few speeches by those who seemed to possess more wit than others, our shoes were removed, gently but firmly, and placed in two wheelbarrows, coats were turned inside out, and caps were placed at rakish angles. The entire class was then arranged in single file, and in this manner we started for the Square. The Juniors tried hard to break the line, but we Freshmen cared more for our shoes than to run away from them. A few of us were more courageous and attempted to break and run for freedom, but, alas, the number of paddles and their persuasive powers always brought us back into line. While marching through the market district the Sophomores laid a heavy barrage of tomatoes over our heads. Page ' s clock was soon reached, from which the most learned of our number gave speeches. The Sophomores soon lost interest in these speeches and we were allowed to scramble for our shoes. Thus ended the first day of our college career! The following day classes were begun. The first hour we were given a welcoming address from President Eames, in which he expressed his hope that our days at L. T. S. would not be spent at Keith ' s, and that we would soon learn the old L. T. S. spirit. Later on during the first week we were sold caps and rules at prices which must have made millionaires in the Sophomore class. Caps and rules like every new thing, were soon laid away to remind us of money that we had wasted. Noticing that the numerals of the Sophomore Class were spoiling the surround- ing scenery, we took it upon ourselves to change them, putting in their stead the numerals of our own class. This greatly enraged the most worthy Sophomores, and many Freshmen were taken on rides and allowed to return a pied in order that they might enjoy the splendor of a beautiful moon. These numerals were changed several times until the Sophomores gave in, leaving the numerals of our class standing out in bold relief on the river bed. 75 THE PICKOUT 19 2 5 It was not long before we were brought together by the officials of the upper class for the purpose of organization. During this meeting we were told of the secret Freshman Banquet and inter-class football and basketball games that were to come. The name of a temporary president was drawn from a hat, and that name was found to be Perk MeGuire ' s, and forthwith we started on arrangements for a football team and banquet. Doc Noyes was chosen as coach and captain of the Freshman eleven. He gathered together about enough men to make a team and started them in earnest practice. After a week of practice we met the Sophs in a hard fought game, which ended in our defeat to the tune of 18-0. This defeat did not dampen our spirits, for that same night we held a successful banquet which the committee had arranged more or less unbeknown to the Sophomores. The committee arranged and carried out the kidnapping of Bill Smith, president of the Sophomore class, during the afternoon. Poor William, answering a forged note from our dear Miss Foote, was severely manhandled on his way to the office. Bound and gagged, he was taken to the scene of the banquet, where he was handcuffed to a radiator. The same afternoon Perk McGuire was captured, but the plans for the feast still went on, and at half past six Freshmen began to arrive, some up fire-escapes, others through side doors. Dinner was served at seven and everyone set to his share with a right good will. It was not long before the banquet hall was discovered by the ever-watchful Sophs. A fight followed which resulted in a riot call, which forced the Sophs to disband. After-dinner speeches followed. Speeches were given by our guests of honor: President Eames, Professor Dow and Professor Ball. An exchange of presidents followed, after which came the election of officers. The results of this election were: E. Perkins McGuire, President; Charles Fredrickson, Vice-President, Hargreaves Heap, Jr., Secretary, and Edward L. Wingate, Jr., treasurer. A snake dance to the Square followed, which was broken up by those who were too highly pleased by the success of the banquet. Trolleys of electric cars were pulled from the wires and the enraged starter set firmly on the pavement. Another riot call followed and the night ended with each Freshman having in his heart a feeling of accomplishment and growing class spirit. Soon after the banquet came Textile night at the Y. M. C. A. This time it was the Sophomores who felt defeat at the hands of the Freshmen in the basketball game, the final score being 26 to 16. Inter-class games and feelings ceased with Textile night, and everybody turned to his books to prepare for the mid-year examinations. Mid-years came, some of us were more successful than others, but as a whole we fared very well. 76 THE PICKOUT 19 25 The class turned toward other activities with the coming of spring. Baseball practice was started in which many of our number participated. Kenney and Burke made the regular scpiad and established a name for the Freshmen. The Tex Show brought out much talent from our ranks in the line of actors. Harry Jones proved his worth as the leading man, while Angus MacKenzie and Larry Guild took other roles. Others of the Freshmen took active part in the play management so that in this too, was the Freshman class well represented. Our first college year ended with finals. As we shook hands in parting for the summer, it was Good-bye and good luck to some, and to others, See you again next year! Vacation passed and gone, we returned to start our Sophomore year, much more sophisticated than the year previous, and all of us determined that we would reek our vengeance on the incoming Freshman class. Registration day we put the innocent and unsuspecting Frosh through a series of sports similar to those which we had experienced. Hazing proved a little bit more difficult than we had imagined. A Thirteen Club was organized for the punishment of those in the baby class who were not wise enough to wear hats and obey the rules. The annual fight in changing numerals on the rocks in the river bed was as usual rather monotonous, but we were more persevering than the Frosh, and for the first time in many years, the numerals on the rocks remained unchanged by the Freshmen. This year our class was represented in great style on the gridiron by Shadow Bentley, Al Gladwin, Larry Guild, Peterson, Les Redding, Joe Lussier, Connorton, Musgraves, and Al Smith. All those men made records of which they may well be proud. At inter-class football we were victorious, defeating the Freshmen 6-0, Jerry Franks scoring the touchdown by picking up a fumble during the first of the game. After football practice one night Ev Skinner, our Sophomore president, was kidnapped, despite the warnings that he had been given about the Freshmen. A search for the banquet hall was commenced and it was discovered to be Grafton Hall. We were outnumbered, however, by the police present, so the Frosh were allowed to feast unmolested. Textile Night proved to the Freshmen again the power of our class, for again we defeated them, in basketball this time. This night seems to always be our big night, for each year we have been successful in inter-class contests. Mid-years have come and gone, but still the Class of ' 27 holds toget her with a strength and spirit that we hope will always be ours. Edward L.

Bastow, Jr. President Vice-President Treasurer Secretary Executive Council Sergeant at Arms 82 History of tfje Jfresfyman Clasis? September twenty-ninth, nineteen hundred and twenty-four, will long remain in the minds of the Freshmen as a memorable day. On this, the opening day of the school year, the Freshmen, with the help of the Sophomores, made their debut, not only in the life of the school, but also of Lowell in general. In the early part of the morning these seekers of Textile knowledge could be seen in the offices registering, or found wandering about the school, looking it over. Possibly some of them did notice the continual smiles which followed them, on the faces of the upper classmen, but they were unsuspec ting kids you know. As the hour of eleven drew near, the Freshmen were escorted into the court- yard by some of the able-bodied Sophs, there to take off their shoes, place them in a wheelbarrow, turn their coats inside-out, and march downtown. Ah ! that day of all days ! The poor innocent Freshmen even had to sell or try to sell, dry, decayed fish from the clock at Page ' s. The parade ended upon return to the starting point, and there was a mighty rush for the shoes. It was on the front lawn of a certain domicile on Riverside Street that an upper classman asked a group of Freshmen how long the ' 27 ' s were going to stay on the rocks in the river bed. This was the start of something, for that night, after two honorable Sophs, Slack and Bullard, had been asked to leave a certain Fresh- man ' s room, and were cast out on the seat of their pants, the numerals were changed. Alas and alack, the Freshmen must suffer! That same night Mr. Skinner, but why call him mister — those days are gone now - - knocked at the door and invited all of the Freshmen to go for a ride with him and some of his playmates. Of course they all went, and really did enjoy the ride, although Carolina says that rubber hose was too hard, and Al Adams says that watering troughs are not the proper places in which to give a man a bath. Then came the day when the Sophs decided that we had grown old enough to have our own class organized. All the Freshmen wrote their names on a slip of paper and these were put into a waste basket. Skinner drew the names of Benny Feinburg for president and Angus Perry for vice-president. These b oys did their work very well and planned the banquet with the assistance of Morrill, Adams, and Harper. November the fifth was the best night in the fall for the Freshmen, for they captured Skinner, president of the Sophomore class, and held him in Henderson ' s Fertilizer works, which is the proper place for any member of the Class of 1927 (ask Parsons), until seven o ' clock, when he was rushed up to Merrimack hall. 83 THE PICKOUT 1925 The elections were held, and John E. Harper was elected president, Morrill, vice-president, Carolina Savage secretary, Jim Corbett treasurer, and Bastow sergeant-at-arms. The banquet ended with a snake dance up and down Merrimack Street, which was unhindered by the Sophs. The Freshman-Sophomore game was a very close one in score. Weisner ' s kicking was one of the outstanding features of the game for the Freshmen, and Johnnie Shea, Captain of the Sophs, did remarkably well in carrying the ball. The would-be Sophomore team received the kick-off, and rushed the ball the length of the field on a fluke play. They were not haltered, and scored a touchdown within three minutes of the opening whistle. The upper classmen were unable to kick the goal, and the remainder of the game was well balanced and spectacular. It was a typical see-saw affair, as the both sides were evenly matched. Neither side was able to score again, so the final result was 6-0 in favor of the Sophs. There are many things in our first year at Lowell which we will always remem- ber. How could we forget Carolina struggling over the bridge on those February mornings; or the Parthenon, where we had our first taste of real Bohemian life; or even our first try at boarding; or how good the food was those first few days; or the fat man and his shadow — Harper and Adams; or Ma Fletcher, who is con- sidered the best cook east of the Merrimack. Can we ever forget how ferocious Fredrickson, Gladwin, and Skinner, the highway robbers, looked when they demanded $1.25 for Freshman caps and rules; and what terrible barbers those Sophomores are; ask Goodman about his shingle. During all our trials and troubles, there was one man who was a friend to all of us, James Guthrie Dow. We would like to thank him for all the help and advice which he has given to us. We would like to ask him if he will please forget and excuse one of our number for giving him a cabbage bouquet the third day of school. All in all may loyalty and good fellowship prevail in this Class of 1928. Loyal attention from start to finish, is the safest, fairest, and surest channel for you to pursue. Be loyal to your classmates, and fellowship of good nature will be main- tained. 84 o o s- jC o H O a cc X X o O pq o £ S CO C o X c o to -8 d tf 60 eS X .

Practically all of the eight games played were with schools having much larger student bodies, and a great deal more time to devote to the sport. We were handicapped from the first by the loss of Captain Wood, who went on the ineligible list, due to studies. Prac- tically all of the material with which we had to work was light and inexperienced, and injuries during the season cut down the squad still more. Our new coaches, Eddie Cawley and Ernie Perry, both former Colby stars, proved to be a find and did excellent work with the squad. We hope to be fortunate enough to have the same men next year. Charles Fredrickson was elected captain to replace Wood, and although injured several times during the season he proved to be one of the mainstays of the team. Quite a bit of good material was found in the Freshman class, and as these men will all be back next year, we should be able to turn in a more successful season in 1925. EDDIE CAWLEY Patesi College bss. textile The first game of the year was played at Lewiston and although our team had only a short week or so of practice, we put up a fight that made Bates realize they were playing football. It was very evident from this game that Textile lacked an experienced quarterback. The heavier Bates outfit had to use everything in stock to turn in the score of 19 to 0. Bastow and Fredrickson both showed up very well for Textile, while Peterson and Woodman made all the points for Bates. £ L jHtcfjael ' s bsi. textile In the opening home game Textile lost to St. Michael ' s as a result of fumbling and poor football throughout. At the end of the first half the score stood at 6 all, but Textile could not seem to put over another score, although Bentley blocked a 93 THE PICKOUT 19 2 5 punt and made an opportunity for a touch down. St. Michael ' s pushed over the winning score in the last quarter. Textile ' s six points were made by Byron Bentley, who recovered the ball, and rolled over the line for a touchdown. :Probtbence College b£. textile The heavy Providence team came up on October 13th, expecting to walk away with an easy game, but the result was in doubt up to the final whistle. The game was the exact opposite of the previous week ' s, in that Textile played real football and used their heads. Our line was outweighed to a man, but put up a solid front against the Providence offense, Bentley ' s work at center and Brosnan ' s at end standing out in particular. Corbett at quarterback made consistent gains through the line. Providence managed to get over one touchdown and played a defensive game. J)obe Manb g tate b£. textile On October 20th we defeated the strong Rhode Island State team in a hard- played game. Throughout the four quarters of the game there was not a let-up in the fast playing and there was no fumbling by Textile of any kind. In this game we were also outweighed, but seemed to have the push that had been lacking before. The only score of the game was made by Brosnan, who recovered a fumble by Rhode Island and ran for a touchdown. .- •■ Worcester Wtt ) to , textile We journeyed to Worcester on October 27th and lost another game as a result of fumbling. Guidi, the opposing fullback, seemed to be the greatest single obstacle we had met up to date. He made two of the scores, and was largely responsible for the other. Brosnan and Lussier showed themselves to be of great value to the team. 94 THE PICKOUT 1 ) 2 5 Uniuersttp of 32eto ampsfjtre b£. textile University of New Hampshire came down on November 3rd, with one of the best teams in the East. We were up against a team more powerful in all respects than anything we had yet met. Although badly beaten, Textile put up a good fight, the game being featured especially by the work of Eddie Linsey. He carried the ball for many gains and his defensive work was really remarkable. Brosnan again made the only score for Textile, receiving a forward pass and eluding the backfield for a touchdown. Cooper Union us. textile This proved to be the easiest game of the season, and was played on the home campus on November 10th. The Cooper Union team was heavier, but completely outplayed. Our second team played most of the game, and succeeded in making a good portion of the points. Bastow starred, making four touchdowns in all. Jltbbleimrp bs;. Textile We went up to Middlebury for the last game of the season and on a field frozen hard as rock were battered by the heavy Middlebury backs to the tune of 65 to 7. Although the result was never in doubt, great credit must be given the men for putting up the fight they did. Our seven points were not a fluke, but were the result of making half a dozen gains through the Middlebury line after Guild carried the ball to within scoring distance. Corbett took the ball over for the touchdown and kicked the goal. Poor sportsmanship was evidenced by the Middlebury coach, and we hope Middlebury does not appear on our schedule again.

Although the schedule as made out called for sixteen games, only ten were played, due to rain and lack of playing surface. Of the ten games played. Textile managed to win five and tie one, a creditable record, considering the caliber of the teams played and defeated. During the first week of baseball, in all about sixty candidates reported for the team. But in a comparatively short time the squad dwindled down. It looked as though pitchers would be plentiful, but actual work showed that only two were of real value this year. Ray Farwell, pitching for the last time at Textile, played a strong game on the mound. His running-mate, Tom Joy, with two years to go, was equally as good. Both of these boys turned in a creditable season and the former big boy who twirled for a handful of years, will be greatly missed, due to the fact that he graduates in June. One of the outstanding players of the year was Pop Olson, captain of the outfit and guardian of the backstop position for the last three years. The graduat- ing captain will be more than missed. As an athlete he had sterling qualities and abilities; as a gentleman on the field of contest or in school he has been the same old Pop, looked up to and respected by all. The bases were filled with good ball players, two of whom will be lost through graduation. Ham Brigham, the keystone sacker, carried out his assignment to perfection and it will be no easy task to replace him. Ray Reynolds, the local flash, will be another loss to the team. Rabbit not only stopped about every- thing that came his way, but was one of the leading batters of the year. However, Andy Scanlon, captain-elect, and Red Kenney, the first baseman, from Dean, will be available the coming season. Both of these boys are natural ball players and we predict stellar work on their part. The outfield was taken care of by Linsey, Tom Joy, Burke, and McKay in perfect manner, all of whom will be back next spring. Besides covering the garden positions, these boys assisted in breaking up the pitching records of the opponent pitchers while at bat. Tom Joy is perhaps one of the most valuable men left for the coming year. He has made a remarkable record as a pitcher, and together with the fact that he is the hardest hitter on the team, is always considered a menace by his opponents. THE PICKOUT 1925 Just as a year ago, when the Red and Black started off the season by tying Holy Cross, this year the team opened by trimming Boston University 10 to 2. The record of the season indicates that Textile ' s showing would have been much better if the entire schedule had been played, for many of those teams that were listed and not played, due to rain, were in turn defeated by teams that Textile had swamped. Positon UntberSttp The baseball season was officially opened on the Textile Campus when Mayor J. J. Donovan of Lowell threw out the ball at the start of the Boston University- Lowell Textile game, which ended in a 10 to 2 victory for Textile. Although it was a raw, cold day with the wind sweeping across the field, the team was not hindered. They pounded Rowe, pitcher for B. U., for eleven hits, resulting in 10 runs. The visitors were unable to do anything against either Farwell, who started pitching for Textile, or Joy who replaced him. Textile played a fine game of ball, not only hitting in the pinches, but also turning in many pretty plays. From appearances they might have been big leaguers, when Burke squeezed in Brigham in the fourth on a bunt, and when Tom Joy smashed his homer over the center field fence. robtbence College Erratic playing on Textile ' s part enabled Providence College, in the second game of the season, to chalk up a 6 to 3 victory. Although Providence had a peppery team, they were aided by six infield errors by Textile. Ray Farwell was unable to get going, and Joy was sent in cold; but he too was unable to stop Provi- dence. The first break came when Reynolds at short missed McGee ' s hard drive. He made up for this when he came to bat by hitting a fine double. Tom Joy, Textile ' s Babe Ruth, laced out a triple, bringing in Reynolds. Out of four trips to the bat, Tom got three hits. Burke and Reynolds got the other two hits made. {Ertnttp College The first trip of the season resulted successfully for Textile, when they de- feated Trinity at Hartford in a 13 to 9 game. Harry Duguid started as pitcher, but was replaced by Joy after Trinity ' s nine runs were scored. Tom held the Trinity squad runless while his team-mates managed to gather some runs. Tom was also a shining light at the bat, as usual. The game, although not spectacular, showed that Textile had not lost any of her ability by losing to Providence. 100 eS fe K C3 M i a o c3 o m o | -s iT - 02 ( H _ o t 5 -f r}J O OS H 4J c8 . 2 O fe «3 W £ 2 H J 5 ►J J m c 02 j W ' g« i- 5 03 •-■ fe 1— O O s g K -„ C V Ph -•S 5 - 5 2 0: sj a e J si s •« i . £ to 5 u P- Os ■g Cft 3 g T H EPICKOUT 19 2 5 laftobe Manb g tate College The day following the Trinity game, Lowell Textile played R. I. State. Owing to the lack of a pitching staff, Farwell and Joy were again forced to do the pitching, although not in top form. The game, however, was ours until the seventh, when Wright of R. I. hit a triple with the bases full, converting victory into defeat for us. Burke started on the mound, but due to lack of support and the fact that it was his first attempt in this berth, he was relieved after allowing seven walks, and returned to his position in left field. Captain Olson played a fine game behind the bat, and then came across with two nice hits. Colbp College Due to rainy weather, Textile had a two weeks ' vacation, but on April 26 played Colby in a 12 to 12 tie game. It was a game of hard hitting on both sides and incidentally, one of poor fielding. Both teams were forced to use two pitchers. Joy started for Textile, but was relieved in the second inning. Colby opened strong in the first and when the dust had settled, was the proud possessor of five runs. Textile retaliated in the second with five runs, sending Muir of Colby to the showers. In the third inning, due to a pass and an error, a double by Scanlon and a homer by Farwell, Textile took the lead. But the score see-sawed back and forth throughout the game. Red Kenny ' s double with two on base tied the score in the eighth. The game was called at this point, according to previous arrangement. J2eto Hampshire Umberssitp Textile visited N. H. on the 28th of April, and was entertained by the Univer- sity. The game was a fine one throughout, and until the sixth inning Textile had a one-run lead. But the latter half of this inning turned the tables, giving N. H. a lead of one run, when they came back strongly. In vain Textile struggled to add a run or two more to its tally, and in the ninth, a hitting rally nearly accomplished this, but failed to bring in the needed run. 102 T II E P I C K U T 1 !) 2 5 iSortljeastent College The Red and Black turned another victory when they defeated Northeastern 6 to 5 in a closely contested game on the Campus, April 30th. Textile started by scoring in the first inning, Burke crossing the plate after Northeastern had thrown the ball wildly around the bases. The visitors tied it up, however, in the third when Ayles scored on Eldridge ' s hit after being walked, and stealing second. Ray Farwell ' s second home run of the season won the game for Textile, after Northeastern had tied the score by bringing in two runs in the ninth. This hitting rally was stopped, however, when Kenny stopped a hot one at first and ended the game. Worcester fflkcfj In the annual game of the season with our old rivals, Worcester Tech, Textile took away the laurels with a 5 to 2 score. Led by Captain Pop Olson, the boys took an early lead by scoring two runs in the first inning. Worcester couldn ' t do anything until the fourth frame, when they tied the score. After this, they had several opportunities to increase their score, but close playing held them in check. Textile jumped to the lead again in the last of the fourth when Linsey poked out a double and went to third on McKay ' s hit, and scored on a wild throw. Tom Joy pitched a fine game throughout, striking out ten men. After this lead, the team kept well ahead until the end of the game. Hnibers;ttp of iSeto Hampshire Playing on a wind-swept diamond, L. T. S. lost to New Hampshire University, 11 to 4, in a dusty game before a large gathering of alumni. Tom Joy started twirling for Textile, but was off control, and was replaced by Farwell in the fifth inning. The N. H. moundsman, Barnes, was no better, but fine teamwork saved his side. The scoring started in the third, when N. H. garnered their runs. Textile scored one of its runs in the eighth, and the other three in the ninth. Although their hitting was superior to that of the visitors, the home team coidd not bunch its hits effectively, and loose playing lost the game. ftt. JHtcftaeT Ray Farwell proved his calibre in the last game of the season when he pitched his team to victory against St. Michael ' s to the score of 6 to 0. Five of these runs came in the first inning. Then the boys from Vermont tightened up, and only one more run was made by Textile. Farwell allowed only two hits during the game, and one free pass. He struck out seven men in the bargain. Reynolds, at short, was high man at the bat, getting four hits out of five times facing the pitcher. He also did fine work at short. 103 PasfeettiaU Officers 1924=1925 Frederick L. Kenney Francis C. Kennedy Lester H.

Practice was started late and injuries and ineligibility handicapped the team at all times. Leo Kenney was both Captain and Coach of the team, and was the star of the year. His brilliant playing on both the defense and offense saved several games from turning into overwhelming defeats. Burke ' s appearance in the lineup at mid-season helped the team considerably. The team played well, but lack of practice kept our victories down. Jfttdjburg iSormal 25; textile 16 The opening game was lost to Fitchburg Normal. The score was nine all at the end of the first half, but Fitchburg ' s playing outclassed ours in the second half of the game. Lack of condition was one of the causes for defeat. Kenney and Greenwood starred for Lowell. ftufts 48; textile 21 Tufts defeated us at Medford on January 15. The first half was very close, but as in the first game, lack of condition was a controlling factor in our defeat. The work of the Tufts team was impressive, while Kenney and Slamin played well for Lowell, each getting three baskets. Jlolp Crosisi 29; textile 9 Holy Cross administered a defeat to us on our own court on January 17th. The game was fast, and the defensive work of Textile is to be praised for keeping the score so low against the teamwork and shooting of the Worcester boys. Efjobe Manb tate 42; textile 9 At Kingston the Textile received a worse defeat at the hands of Rhode Island State. Rhode Island outclassed us from the start, and we were unable to break through their strong defense. Captain Kenney and Greenwood played well for Textile. 107 THE PICKOUT 1925 pogton College 29; textile 10 The losing streak was not broken when Boston College visited Lowell. Again the opposing team was too strong for us. Erratic playing was evident on both sides, and although Textile had many chances, it did not make the best of them. ?|olp Crosisi 46; textile 6 On January 28th, Holy Cross, at Worcester, defeated us for the second time. Their team seemed to score almost at will and Reilly alone dropped in seven baskets. Credit may be given to Logan and Greenwood for the six points. Trinity 31; textile 3 Textile received a worse defeat at the hands of Trinity on January 31st. Our players were unable to break through Trinity ' s strong defense and did not get a single basket from the floor. The defensive work of Captain Kenney at right guard merited much praise. textile 33; Jgormal rt 11 Textile won its first game of the year on February 9th when it defeated the Normal Art team 33 to 11. Burke, a varsity man from last year, was with the team for the first time, and showed up well. Logan and Kenney also starred for Textile. g t. jffltdjael ' a 27; textile 14 In an exceptionally fast and well-played game St. Michael ' s defeated Textile on February 14th, at Lowell. Kenney was the outstanding star of the game both defensively and offensively. Lask of ability on the foul line cost us the game. L jUicfwr 37; textile 27 On February 20th, we played a return game at Winooski, Vermont, and fared but little better than the previous week. However, the game proved a faster and more interesting one from the spectators ' point of view. Burke for Textile and McAlpine for St. Michael ' s were the high scorers in the game. 108 mw mm ■ . ffj3IBWHK ■ m m ' ' ' r ■■■■ ; 4 m v ' VAi lis 9 « y bU ' : ifa Wfo; 5 ■ f -I 1 M : ' S H am laW. 87 ■ wt : : ■ ; |S i 3 f i sB Bk W m- .BBBHtfall : ■?  ft ..a AHnBii B BV - ' Tj ' .- ' -. iMijiMil ' TuJM§SB BwlB3BBi6 S6HiB¥SR ■MtaPR., 11 -d V d a IX! u -e o d o a d , o EPS -5 J d .5 -d g 3a ■M 1) -5 ' V H — PQ H W M 6h U - « ; d o g, Oh O hJ T H E PICKOUT 19 2 5 j8ortoicf) 38; textile 21 Norwich defeated Textile at Northfield on February 21st. This was a costly game for us, not only because we were defeated, but for the fact that we suffered the loss of our captain, on account of a sprained ankle, thus putting him out of the game for two weeks. Burke and Kenney both recorded a number of baskets. Jgeto Pebforb 21; textile 13 Weakened by the loss of Captain Kenney, Textile dropped a game with New Bedford Textile on February 28th. The game was slow and very uninteresting, and erratic playing predominated on both sides. Jgortotd) 18; textile 17 The best game of the year was played on March 6th, when Norwich won from us by a score of 18 to 17. The winning point was made on a foul just as the whistle blew. The game was fast and the result in doubt at all times. Kenney, back in the game, starred for Lowell. textile 23; Jfall iber 21 In the last home game of the year Textile annexed another victory. Although the score was close, the game was slow and uninteresting, with much ragged playing on both sides. Burke and McKay played well for Lowell, Burke scoring the win- ning points in the last few minutes of the game. Worcester 33; textile 13 Textile closed its season with a defeat at the hands of the fast Worcester learn. The first period was very close, but the pace told on the Textile boys and Worcester drew away steadily. The work of Kenney and Smith in the back court was worthy of much praise. 110 $f)t $3t Jfratermtp Established in 1905 ♦ALEXANDER G. CUMNOCK LEWIS F. BLUME, E.E. JOHN B. REED, A.B. HOWARD D.

THE MANAGEMENT THE PICKOUT 1 9 2 Jgotfjing but tfje ttrutj Harry H. Jones, ' 27 In spite of the fact that Pluvius was rather out of sorts on the evening of May 9, 1924, more than two thousand young and old filled the Auditorium to see Nothing but the Truth presented by the Musical and Dramatic Club. The annual ball that followed made the evening the most colorful and successful in the history of the school. The plot, consisting of an attempt to keep absolutely to the truth for twenty- four hours, and the resulting complications, gave ample opportunity for some very good comedy. Harry Jones, playing the lead, as Bob, who tried to adhere to the truth, gave a very intimate portrayal of the character, and we can take the advice of Bob and not test our veracity too strongly. Brigham gave his usual clever impersonation of femininity in his last appear- ance for the school, and the remainder of the cast all helped to make the show a huge success. The trial and the suspense, which kept the interest in high all the time, worked out in the last moment to give a very satisfactory ending. The music, by Paul Whiteman ' s Levia- than Orchestra, was alone worth coming for, and the dancing filled the big hall almost to the limit. Great credit must go to the manage- ment, and especially to Mr. Dow and Mr. Fickett, for their cooperation with the cast, and to them a goodly part of the success is due. 139 Howard M. Brigham, ' 24 THE PICKOUT 19 25 ftfje Hottentot About the time that Pickout will come out, this year ' s Show and Ball will be held at the Auditorium. The Hottentot affords a very humorous vehicle for the players, and this year we are expanding — with two casts working on the show. The second cast will give a presentation of the show probably out of town some- where, although the place has not yet been chosen. A cast with MacKenzie play- ing the lead should prove a big attraction and as Leo Reisman has been engaged for the musical end, there is no doubt about the success of this year ' s presentation. 140 Jfratermtp €bent£ JBtita I appa $f)t panquet The annual banquet of the Delta Kappa Phi was held on April 26, 1924, at Youngs Hotel in Boston. Covers were laid for one hundred and fifty guests, and eight o ' clock found a man at each place. The bill of fare, as well as the bill of company, was of superfine quality, and the responses to Toastmaster Boyd ' s request for speeches were many and varied. A quartet of Boston artists furnished special entertainment and the souvenirs selected for the occasion were unusually attractive. When the time came to say good-night all felt that the 1924 banquet had been a banquet in spirit as well as in name, and that the committee in charge deserved a rousing vote of appreciation. ;P!)t $si Contention Since the last issue of the Pickout, Gamma Chapter of the Phi Psi Fraternity has had many interesting and successful events go down on her records; among these was the Annual Convention, held in Fall River, under the supervision of the Beta Chapter. The convention was one long to be remembered by those who attended, for the affair was planned carefully and everything went off with clock- work precision. Four men from Gamma, three of them delegates, were among the two hundred that attended the convention. $f)t $gt tousle Part? As is the custom, so it was last year, to hold the Annual Spring House Party at the time of the school play, on the week-end of May 9, 1924. On Friday afternoon the fraternity house was turned over to many out-of- town girls, who upon arrival immediately made themselves at home, and the start of a glorious week-end was in step. Friday evening, all the girls with their various escorts, attended the school play, Nothing but the Truth, which without a doubt deserves the highest recognition that could be given amateur actors for ability. After the play, dancing was enjoyed until one o ' clock, when the party broke up with most of the couples returning to the house to participate in a Club Breakfast that was served later in the early morning hours, after which the house was vacated by the boys and the girls turned-in, tired but happy. 141 THE PICKOUT 1 9 2 5 Saturday brought more rain, but with a theatre party at Keith ' s in the after- noon, we soon saw the smiles of the previous evening. After the theatre party everyone returned to the house where tea was served, and later dinner. Saturday evening a formal party was held at the Marlboro Hotel, with about thirty-five couples present. At twelve o ' clock the evening was just starting; so it was, for many of the couples were seen at Child ' s in Boston about one o ' clock, eating heartily of what made the restaurant famous. Sunday noon everyone sat down to eat a meal at the house for a change, and talk over the events that had so quickly happened, and it was voted that the house party was one never to be forgotten. Late Sunday afternoon, much to everyone ' s regret the house was in despair; what had happened there is no need of telling. There is much credit to be given the committee that had charge of the week- end: H. B. Perry, Jr., W. H. Bradford, Jr., E. P. McGuire, and J. T. Slack, 2nd. ( micron $t Jfflap ftousie $artp The third and most successful house party of the year was held the week-end of May 9, 1924. The guests arrived Friday afternoon, when the house was turned over to the fair maidens. As this house party was held in conjunction with the Tex Show, it was very well attended, not only by active members, but by alumni. After the show and dance everyone returned to the house, where dancing and refreshments kept everyone in a joyful mood until the wee small hours of the morning. Saturday morning those who were light sleepers arose early and were shown through the school by their men. In the afternoon everyone went to Keith ' s. This show, being unusually fine, was well liked. After a splendid dinner Saturday evening, the couples adjourned to the Vesper Boat Club, where a dance was held by the Fraternity. The music was furnished by Broderick of Lowell. Mr. and Mrs. Roland Baker of Springfield acted as chaperons at the house party and dance. Sunday everyone slept until dinner time, while that afternoon was spent in bidding our fair guests good-bye. G. K. Lewis was chairman of the committee responsible for the enjoyable party. Pt)t f t Jfaretoell panquet Having finished one week previous to this a house party, it was decided to hold the Farewell Banquet on the week-end of May 16, 1924, at the Franklin Spa, in Lawrence. 142 T II E PICKOUT 19 2 5 Plans were made, and on Friday evening there were about fifty active and alumni men of the fraternity present in the lobby of the Franklin Hotel, ready to sil down to a meal fit for the kings, and to talk over old times. After the meal was served a general smoker was held and several very interesting talks were given by the alumni. The party broke up about eleven o ' clock, some of the boys returning to Lowell via automobile, and others going in the direction of Boston for the week-end. It is not to be forgotten that we owe the suceess of this banquet to Hugh Bradshaw, now among the workers of the world. ( micron $1 Alumni panquet The twenty-second annual Omicron Pi Alumni Banquet, arranged in con- junction with the Textile Alumni Day, was held at the Marlboro Hotel on May 23, 1924. The dinner was served at seven o ' clock, D. L. Page Company catering. During the banquet members of Keith ' s Agency furnished the entertainment. Following the banquet the annual Alumni Association meeting was held, during which plans for the coming year were discussed and formed. There were an unusual number of alumni present because of the fact that it was the twentieth reunion of the founders of the fraternity, who were of the class of 1904. Each member of that class gave an interesting talk on the early days of the fraternity. The success of the affair was due to the committee, of which Harry Duguid, ' 24, was chairman; Paul Lundgren, ' 25, and Edward Wingate, ' 25, were the other members of the committee. i£ tgma mega $31 Bance£ Several formal dances were given by the different Sigma Omega Psi chapters ' which were well attended. Eta of L. T. S. was ably represented by some mean ' ' steppers, no, not mebbe. The success of these dances promises a greater number of them for the future. On October 12th, 13th, and 14th there was an informal dance, banquet, and smoker given at the Sigma Omega Psi house in Boston, in honor of the New York men sojourning in Boston for a conclave. The house, which is on Brookline Avenue, was filled, as there were more than ninety couples present. 143 THEPICKOUT 192 5 ( micron $t Bance The social season of 1924-1925 was begun on November 16th, with a dancing party at the Marlboro House. The ballroom was gay with Textile and Fraternity colors; and a confetti and streamer dance, together with one in which bright sou- venirs were worn, made the occasion savor of a carnival. The large number present gave evidence of the popularity of the D. K. parties. Harry Swain was the able chairman of the festivity, capably supported by Ev. Willey and Murdoch McKinnon. H igma d mega Smoker Eta Chapter, Sigma Omega Psi, held its annual Freshman smoker on November 21, 1924, at its house on Mt. Vernon Street. Several Freshmen were present and a few of the alumni put in their appearance. Smokes and refreshments were served plentifully amid the chatter and intermingling strains of harmonious music. All of the guests were presented with suitable souvenirs of the occasion. Several exceptionally interesting chats were given on fraternity life and its influence upon the students. The affair ended at a late hour and was voted a success. Belta appa $i)t Smoker, 1924 About fifty well-groomed Freshmen accepted invitations to the Beta Chapter smoker on Wednesday, December 3, 1924. The comfortable quarters at Mt. Vernon Street never looked more home-like and attractive and the members took pardonable pride in conducting their guests through. After formal introductions to the D. K. men, President Villeneuve asked all to assemble in the living-room, where the speaker of the evening, Prof. E. H. Barker, was presented. Professor Barker gave a most interesting and graphic description of a visit he had paid to the Bureau of Standards in Washington, D. C. Following that, Professor Barker wove some timely and kindly advice to the boys around the story of Port Said, where sometimes pleasure-seeking men are left behind when the steamer sails. A Boston Bureau provided the lighter entertainment of the evening, featuring two comely blond dancers and a tramp comedian. As the night was growing old, the cup that cheers and all the appendages were passed and partaken of with good cheer and relish. Harry Swain was, in large measure, responsible for the success of the evening. 144 THE PICKOUT 1925 Cijnstmas ree at 9 Jfratermtp One of the most jovial gatherings of the season was the assembly around the Christmas Tree at the D. K. house on December 16th. Big Ben Bentley did the Santy act to perfection and each man was presented with a gift which only a dis- cerning fraternity brother could have selected. Members of the faculty honored the party with their presence and their bon mots added to the general mirth, for a Little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men. The entire party joined in the chorus around the concert grand, as the time to say Good- night and Merry Christmas drew near, and Ev. Willey ' s accompaniments helped to make the welkin ring. ' . - Cfjristmasi at $()i $£t ' Twas a week before school closed for Christmas vacation that the Beaver visited No. Z8 with gifts that were quite appropriate for the occasion; some coming in quite useful while others brought a good laugh from the boys with the funny bone. After Santa had dispensed with his humorous gifts, most of the boys went to see the play at the Opera House; the others -- well, we don ' t know where they went - ' tis the custom, ' tis the custom, that ' s all. ( micron $t Christmas; J artp The annual Christmas party of Omicron Pi was held at the fraternity house the night before Christmas vacation started. Most of the active chapter and a few of the alumni were on hand for this important occasion. Santa Claus, in the person of Walt Holt, distributed a large number of gifts, all of which were more or less appropriate. Although the practical utility of some of these might be questioned, they were accepted very gratefully, and every- one agreed that Santa was a jolly good fellow and a generous giver. H igma ( rnega $sit Contention The Sigma Omega Psi convention of 1924 was held Christmas week in New York City. The holiday spirit seemed to enthuse the delegates and played its part in giving an all-around good time to those present. 145 THE PICKOUT 1925 The opening gun was shot at a meeting of the New York district council at the Sigma Omega Psi house. This was followed by a grand convention, and the installation of neophytes in the Colonial Room of the McAlpin. On Friday, the day after Christmas, a meeting of the grand council was held at the Sigma Omega Psi house, followed by a reception at the New York District Council house. Saturday witnessed the formal dance in the Winter Garden Ball Room. The evening was rounded out by a midnight lunch partaken of at Chin Lee ' s. The climax of the convention was reached during the banquet in the Colonial Room on Sunday, the 28th. The music was exquisite, while the food was beyond compare. A meeting of the Mogar Literary and Debating Society at the Sigma Omega Psi house ended the convention. Boston will be the scene of the next convention which will take place in the near future. ( micron $t House $artj The Omicron Pi fraternity held its first house party of the school year, the week-end of February 27th. The young ladies began arriving early in the evening, and everyone started right in to make the party a success. Dinner was served at the house, and afterwards bridge and dancing were enjoyed by the couples until nine o ' clock, when the festivities were transferred to the Inter-fraternity Dance at Liberty Hall. The dance was followed by a supper at the house. After the midnight lunch, some of the crowd started in dancing, while others, seemingly tired, sat around in couples, talking over old times. The fellows left the house to the girls at an early hour, and retired to their temporary rooms. Saturday, the party attended Keith ' s. Dinner was served at an early hour in order to give everybody a chance to get ready for the dance, which was held at the Marlboro Hotel. Leo Daly ' s orchestra furnished the music. The best time of all was had at the hotel, where everyone entered into the true spirit of the dance and made it truly a wonderful time. The hall was very prettily decorated in black and gold, the fraternity colors. Sunday proved quite uneventful and the young ladies reluctantly began leav- ing early in the afternoon, after assuring the fellows that they had had a most wonderful time. Mrs. M. C. Morrill of Lowell chaperoned the party, and it is largely due to her efforts that the party was one of the most successful affairs that the fraternity has ever had. The committee in charge consisted of R. W. Chase, E. L. Wingate, Jr., and A. B. Smith. 146 THE PICKOUT 1025 ©micron |3i Jfresfyman Hmtofeer The first Freshman smoker of the year was held by Omicron Pi Fraternity at its house on Pawtucket Street. The active chapter entertained the whole of the Freshman Class and the members of the faculty. Keith ' s Agency of Boston furnished an entertaining evening. President Fames gave a mighty interesting talk to the Freshmen on what a fraternity should do for the school and for the undergraduates. A buffet lunch was served, and the remainder of the evening was spent in smoke talks, cards, and in singing the latest song hits with those from Keith ' s. Leather kev containers were given as souvenirs of the smoker.  ' $f)t $£t Jfresiftman Smoker The Phi Psi Freshman smoker held December 10, 1024, proved to be one of the most enjoyable social events of the year. Over sixty Freshmen came to the smoker and all voted it as one of the best events they had ever attended. The entertainment of the evening consisted of three singers and dancers, and a boxing exhibition by two small boys who had given the same exhibition at Keith ' s in Boston. Later, speeches that were both entertaining and instructive, were given by Mr. Ball of the faculty and by Mr. Snyder, alumni president of Phi Psi. After the entertainment a fine lunch was served and later cigars and cigarettes were passed around. As a memento of the friendly gathering the visitors were given bill-folds with the fraternity name engraved on them. The highe st praise is due to the entertainment committee headed by William H. Bradford, Jr., for the success of the smoker. On the week-end of February 27th, at the time of the Inter-fraternity Dance, the first real social event of the season took place at the chapter house on Mount Washington Street. At five o ' clock girls were found in and around every corner of the house down- stairs, and some of them on their way to the second floor. Hurrah! it was the start of a house party -- but some of the boys did not realize that time flitted by 147 THE PICKOUT 1 9 2 5 so fast and were still in the process of packing and evacuating the house by the time the girls arrived. However, in short order the house was turned over to the girls and they started to get settled for the week-end. Friday evening seventeen couples from the house attended the Inter-fraternity Dance at the Auditorium; the decorations and music lent inevitable charm to the occasion, and it seemed that everyone had a most enjoyable evening. The dance ended at one o ' clock with all the people returning to the house afterwards to par- ticipate in a lite lunch, after which the boys departed for their respective houses. Saturday afternoon almost everyone attended Keith ' s; those not going went sight-seeing around Lowell, for it hath so many charms for the uninitiated. Saturday evening, we were all looking forward to a sleigh-ride to South Chelmsford, if there had been snow, but as luck went the other way it was de- cided to make use of a bus instead; so at 6.30 we all climbed into a bus and started for the Old Town Hall, arriving there none too soon to satisfy all the appetites. Seven-thirty found us all busily indulging in an old-time chicken dinner which more than filled the desired spot. Ray McKittrick ' s orchestra played during the dinner and also for the dance that followed. The party broke up at twelve o ' clock and everyone returned to the chapter house before sunrise. Sunday was spent in reminiscing and telling bed-time stories for those interested; the others spent the day away from the house. Late in the afternoon the girls packed their belongings and started on their way homeward. It is not to be overlooked that we owe our sincere regards to Mr. and Mrs. Roland T. Pihl for their unrivalled service as chaperons; also to the committee in charge of the week-end, consisting of William H. Bradford, Jr., and E. K. Bouteiller. 148 ©rmii0 September 1924 Monday, 29 — In they come. Fish. Tomatoes. Marty caught smoking. Tuesday, SO — Classes start. Freshmen only ones to go. Schedules being arranged.

We have organized a company under the laws of the State of Texas to operate a large cat ranch on Cat Island. To start with, we will collect, say about one hundred cats. Each cat will average twelve kittens per year. The skins run from 10c each for the white cats to 75c for the pure black. This will give you twelve million skins a year to sell at an average of 30c apiece, making our revenue about $10,000.00 a day. A man can skin fifty cats in a day at $2.00; it will take one hundred to operate the ranch, and therefore the net profit will be about $0,800 daily. We will feed the cats on rats and will start a rat ranch next door. The rats multiply four times as fast as the cats. If we start with one million rats, we shall have therefore four rats per day for each cat, which is plenty. We will then feed the rats on the carcasses of the cats from which the skins have been taken, giving each rat a fourth of a cat. You will observe that one source of revenue has been apparently overlooked; that is, the disposition of the skins of the rats. We have under headway negotia- tions with one of the packing companies to supply all of these ratskins for sausage casings. They are particularly well adapted for workmen taking their lunches with them to work, as the hair can be left on the skins, keeping the contents warm. The proposition has been passed on favorably by the Bureau for the Conser- vation of Natural Resources. Consider the possibilities for the future in the development of this wonderful undertaking. You will see that the business will be self-acting and automatic all the way through. The cats will eat the rats and the rats will eat the cats, and we will get the skins and the money.

With but seven and one-eighth minutes to spare he backed his demonstrator out of the woodshed and started for school, after having slipped on his patented adjustable bizarre breeches binders for budding bicyclists. Just a word here is appropriate and indispensable to explain that the aforesaid demonstrator is the only model in existence of the brain-child from the fertile mind of our inventor and master mechanic. The newly fallen snow flew in clouds to either side, and the people stood in amazement as the great pioneer glided noiselessly by like a cockroach on the floor of the Parthenon. That is — noiseless except for the clanging of the bell and the deep breathing of the amazing rider. My heart was fluttering like a pansy in the wake of a cyclone when I saw him flourish round the corner to cross the Moody bridge, gathering speed for that last dash against the wintry gale that shrieked thru the Weedy Chains on his driving wheel. The emotion that was racking my body seemed to take my voice away, and so I put up my hand for him to stop. I had sworn to interview the great inventor, and now was the time. The chains bit into the snow, and the rotary brush ceased to revolve as the great man ' s left hand shot out as a signal that he was about to stop. After getting control of my voice, and grasping my fears by the forelock, I signified my deep desire to hear a few words about the origin of the greatest invention of the time. Well, modestly spake he, the facilities for interurban travel being some- what restricted in this great metropolis of ours, I was compelled to find means of travel between my abode and my life work. It is necessary that the utmost of reliability and promptness be displayed by me in my position of public prominence, as thousands are watching my every move. Since the day of the horse-car I have been confronted with this great transportation problem, and now I have solved it at last. The revolutionizing of the conveyance industry, when my Ski-cycle is placed before the public, will doubtless be the most amazing thing in this 20th century maze. But I must needs mount and fly to the school in haste, for I have a class in just 49 seconds, but in reward for your great interest I will give you this original description of the Ski-cycle. Peruse it well, and do not fear — you shall be granted choice from among the first hundred machines to be produced in my plant. And he secretively gave me this folder, first making sure that no one was in sight: 16G THE LES-CUSH SKI-CYCLE fill jljA.fS RjfOT-vei THE ONLY ALL YEAR ROUND MUSCLE DRIVEN MACHINE Prices upon request — F. O. B. Lowell, Mass. Display Rooms — Moody Street Adapted to all climes. Also furnished in Tandem model. The Ski-cycle is furnished complete with the necessary accessories. All models are equipped with Automatic Lever-action Windshield Cleaner, and balloon tires. Perhaps the most convenient thing about the Ski-cycle is that you can also purchase the Les-Cush Pneumatic Trailer, very handy for odd uses about town and indispensable on extended journeys. The Les-Cush Trailer is equipped with spare wheel (to replace ski runner when touring below the snow line) and with special sandbag compartment for sand-box refill. In the rear compartment will be found road repairing and accident imple- ments including pick and shovel (convenient trench handle size), --adz, bowie knife, hacksaw, two-edged axe, needle and thread, and snowshoes. Another choice bit of equipment that can be furnished at slight extra cost is a three-ton test tow-line (actual grab test). If the purchaser lives near the seacoast it is advisable that he acquire also our Humidity Penetrating Fog-Horn, and the Saveme Distress Signal — which is sealed in a bone dry condition and is impregnable to regain.

I leaned on the desk of The Girl In The Office, and because I liked to hear her talk — she is different, you ' ll admit, — I asked about the man that had just left her. Is he always like that? I said. Does he always move like you feel when chased by a boa constrictor in a nightmare? Oh, pealed The Girl In The Office, Reckless Steve, or Dead-eyed Step-in never missed a step.

B«.yo d This Poi ' ttt Is ck THE lMCKOl ' T 1925 THE GREAT MYSTERY or WHO STOLE THE REGAIN Early one Tuesday, it was in the middle of February, a call was issued by the Chief Defective of the wool department for his Chief Flunky, and also his Sub- Chief Flunky to hie at once to the inner sanctum. News had come of a great mystery, and it was theirs to do or die. After a period of heavy thinking, very weighty thinking, the Chief Flunky ' s face lightened with glee. Call in the T. T. men, he ordered, with the assurance born of confidence, to witness the solving of this great mystery, and so that our great knowledge be not confined in these narrow walls forever. So it was that when the assembly of the T. T. men was complete, the Chief Defective strode in covered with a look of mystery and a straw head protector. Not long were the gaping spectators at the great event kept in suspense, for with the infinite courage of a Scotch Terrier, or better, an English Bull, the Chief Flunky plunged his probiscus into the mysterious mass. Now is the time! After just enough gulps and sniffs, mostly sniffs, the Chief Flunky came up for air and proudly proclaimed: It is still a virgin top, and it has its regain. And thus was the great mystery solved, and the price of all-wool spats kept within the reach of poor, hard-working brick layers and bank presidents. (Editor ' s Note: The above article will perhaps mean more to those interested if in other than the English language, and for the aid of these men we have acquired copies in the French which may be applied for at the office.)

Editorial Once upon a time old man Diogenes stole a tail light from a go-cart and started his quest for an honest man. For many days did he roam with ne ' er a clue. One day as he was snitching a biscuit from a peddler he saw a man listening to Archimedes ' line of oats, and upon sneaking up behind, Diogenes saw that he was reading Snappy Stories behind a book on Common Astronomy. So Diog- enes went on. One day he came across a man that seemed to fill all the require- ments, and so Diogenes asked him various and divers questions. It so happened that this most true and honest man answered all the questions without difficulty. Diog- enes took out his Tin Honesty Medal, and was just about to bestow it upon the only honest man in the world when he thought of one more question. What in your mind is the best and most applicable name for the greatest Textile College in the world, L. T. S. or M. T. I.? So great a problem as this confused the man and he answered L. T. S. Diogenes fainted in despair, as he realized that his search had been in vain.

Mr. Villa is extremely proud of his ancestry, and has traced it back to the day when the aboriginal was the sole inhabitant of South America. It is expected that further facts about the Vil-ya Indian will be uncovered in the near future, as the scientists are delving still deeper day by day. SCIENTISTS TRACE HERED- ITY OF COLOMBIA, SO. AM. PEOPLE Astounding Facts Revealed The scientists working on the ancestry research of the inhabi- tants of Colombia, South America, have suddenly brought to light great biological facts, heretofore unknown. While it has been supposed that the Colombians were descendants of the Spanish noblemen who ex- plored the territory in the six- teenth century, it is now come to light that these people are de- scended from an almost forgotten tribe — the Vil-ya Indian. These Indians spent their lives teaching the flying fishes of Medellin to fly. They had many queer traits, and ate solely the tamale plant, which they cultivated for this purpose. Textile is fortunate in having within its confines a direct descendant of this peculiar tribe in the person of Luis Pancho Lopez Montezuma Villa.

Eames Emperor Donovan PROVINCE OF TEXTILE AND EMPIRE OF LOWELL SHAKE HANDS AFTER SIGNING Picture of Textile Seniors Rushing to 8:50 A.M. Class. The great coalition treaty was signed today by the heads of the two great peoples, and so great was the emotion undergone by these great men that tears of glad- ness rolled down their cheeks. The Textile Wave photographer secured the above picture at the supreme moment, just as the president and the emperor clasped hands; and traces of the emotion may be noticed on the faces. This is the only picture of the great event, and was only secured by eluding, at great danger and ex- pense, the guards and prohibition officers stationed everywhere. The changed political situation will now permit free exchange in all articles of commerce, and will relieve the strained liquor relations between the countries. Hereto- fore the citizens of Textile were forced to smuggle at great expense all bottled goods, and were present at the great marts of Lowell only at risk of freedom, expulsion, or at least, probation. The states of Parthenon, Minerva, Colonial, Commodore, Petitecanada and many others, will benefit greatly, as will also La Rue de La Market in the capitol itself. The treaty is the result of years of bickering, and is largely the work of President Eames. 177 THE TRUE -TONE ZITHFLUTE You ' ll never know what it means to be really popular — to be favored — to be the center of attraction, everywhere, until you have learned to play those tantalizing tunes on this most beautiful of all instruments.

This year it is the class of 1925 that goes out into the world to seek its fortune. During the period that we have spent here at Textile we have sought to acquire an education, for that is what we came here for; but beside that, we have tried in some way or another to give to the school some- thing of ourselves. We have done this by taking part in athletics, in dramatics, in Glee Club, in the various societies, in the Text, and in the Pickout. Here in this twentieth volume of the Pickout we have attempted to give an accurate account of these activities, and of the students themselves. On the other hand, we have tried to point out in the Grind Section some of the inconsistencies and possible faults of those above us. We have perhaps enlarged upon characteristics and made fun of them; but rest assured that everything in this section is said and done in the spirit of fun, and with no feeling of animosity. In this volume we have departed somewhat from the customary, the new cover standing as the most radical change or addition. It is our hope that this new design will find favor, and enhance the value of the book to you. As for the interior of the book, we have followed in most part the arrangement and style as set by precedence, but have tried to make it more interesting. In any case we hope that this volume will meet with your approval, and that the data and material is as nearly correct as it can be. The value of the Pickout is not, we think, so much in the present as it is in the future, and so if it does pass the present test, we will feel that the future will take care of itself. 179 Wtyat ©uestfton of a i ame We didn ' t think it necessary to give the above cartoon a title. Perhaps it is bad form to write an editorial around a cartoon, but the illustration so fits the subject that we risked it. In any case, - - let it suffice to say that although those interested have been pushing for years for a new name to be given this school, no action on the part of those in power has as yet been evident. When the school was established in 1897 the present name was perhaps appli- cable, but with the growth and expansion of later years came a need for a more comprehensive designation. Both Federal and State educational boards recognize the institution as one of the highest technological schools in this country, and yet we are held back by a name that is narrow to the extreme, and very misleading. The arguments that have been offered in favor of changing the name are too numerous to be given here, while on the other hand, old-fashioned prejudice seems to be the only thing that keeps the movement from receiving consideration. Student bodies have for years been unanimous in voicing approval of the move- ment to change the name to The Massachusetts Textile Institute, and the alumni are just as much in favor. If one speaks to a faculty member the same approval is found to hold sway, and so it goes. And yet nothing has been done, and to the best of our knowledge we are as far from a new name, as we are from possessing the fabled dormitories. We hope, even if nothing else is accomplished, that this may come to the eye of some of those in position to push the movement, and that they will give it a fair consideration and look into the merits of the case. 180 cfenotolebgrnent rTAHE PICKOUT BOARD acknowledges with gratitude the - ■ services of Miss Foote and Miss Lancey, in collecting data; of Professor Smith, for his helpful advice; of Elmer Trevors, for his photographic assistance; and of all those, who helped in the publication of this book.

Wyandotte Michigan 25 More Dry Steam With Less Fuel HERE ' S a per- fect Scotch Boiler --a boiler that will generate more steam with less fuel. Rapid, unre- stricted circula- tion is absolutely necessary to the efficiency of any boiler, and while this feature is claimed for by many boiler man- ufacturers, the designs of this boiler is such that it is positive at all times. Large] overload capacity, dry steam generated, and the remark- able flexibility of meeting fluctua- ting demandspar- ticularly adapts this boiler to se- vere conditions in industrial mills and plants. Greatest economy is assured because of the circulating passage, which delivers water from the front neck to the bottom of the shell. A constant temperature is assured because of this circulation which relieves uneven strains and stresses on this type of boilers. There are no troublesome brick settings, as the boiler is self-contained and is ready for operation upon delivery. We are manufacturers of Vertical Tubular Boilers, Brady Scotch Boilers, Water Tube Boilers, MacDonald Shaking Grates, Smith Door Protectors, and other types of the most efficient boilers upon the market today.

FRAMINGHAM, MASS. 26 Every big textile mill has developed a finish of its own — that ' s often what helped to make it big Look for just a minute at the finish of goods through the eyes of the buyer in a department store. This man has an accurate check on what the public likes and buys. He knows what moves fast and makes a profit and what is left on the shelves. He will tell you that the finish influences the purchase of material to a very great degree. He will also tell you that goods with a new finish always move the quickest. Here then is opportunity for textile mills — develop a new finish. Let it be your own and bear your name. Then, whenever it is asked for, your plant is advertised. A finish which can be distinguished from other finishes gives a plant individuality. This is a wonderful help to plant growth. We ' ll help you to get that new finish if it is possible. Some of the members of our organization have been identified with finishing for a score or more years. The knowledge of these men is at your service in your finish- ing problems. H. W.

Our Specialties are all STANDARDS of MODERN TEXTILE MILL EQUIPMENT The development of our systems has always kept in advance of humidifi- cation as applied to textile manufacture.

If the work runs better with Victor travelers than with any other traveler, the operatives may make more money and the spinning room obtain better results with less waste. This shows up in the cloth, also. Better yarns make better weaving, less seconds, and therefore, greater production. The little things do count. If you are not already using them, run your frames for a while with Victor Travelers and see for yourself. Samples cheerfully furnished.
