I 9 K O U THE P I C K O U T Published by the Senior Class Lowell Textile Institute Lowell - Massachusetts Volume XXXIV - - - 1939 FORE WORD Time rolls its ceaseless course. Each passing year dims the retrospect of an era that is too quickly past— of youth and of college — its pleasant times, and its set- backs—its hopes, and its disappointments —its ambitions, and its struggles— and of the enduring companionships it brought. How greatly to be valued, then, is a living record which will bridge the mists of intervening years and retain to reality the treasured memories of those whose life-long friends and fond recollections are bound forever within its pages.

ADVERTISERS DEDICATION To the memory of FREDERICK STEERE BEATTIE, Ph.B., D.D who for nearly a quarter of a century served de- votedly and unselfishly to instruct Textile stu- dents in organic chemistry, the 1939 Pickout is respectfully dedicated. No one was held in higher esteem by both students and associates; no one had given Textile more of which it can be justly proud. His extensive knowledge of chemistry, and his keen, practical insight into its problems won him high recognition in his profession; but his un- failing sense of humor, his personal sympathy and understanding of his fellow men, his genuine interest in human problems and his fine inspir- ation as a man and as a scholar have won him undying remembrance in the hearts of his friends.

Although his death after a serious illness was not unexpected, it came as a shock to his many friends on the faculty and to the hundreds of students he taught during his years as a faculty member. During the World War, Professor Judd served as a major in the Coast Artillery and later retained his commission with the Coast Artillery Reserves. He served as president of the Lowell Rotary Club for two terms and last year was a delegate to the national convention of the organization in California. He was a 32nd degree Mason and a member of lodges in Vermont. In Lowell, Professor Judd took an active interest in affairs of the First Congregational Church where he served as a chairman of the Board of Deacons. At the Institute here he was a member of Omicron Pi Fraternity. He graduated from the University of Vermont in 19 10 with the degree of Bach- elor of Science and entered almost immediately into the teaching profession. He was a faculty member of Wentworth Institute in Boston, and the Groton School. [17] Commencement Committee Hack Row: Merritt, Olsen, Marsden, Wiesner, Bauer, Reed.

[37] Senior Reflections UNITING into its small and spiril- cd group the graduates of a score ol New England secondary schools, the class of 10,39 found its hesitant way through the gates of Southwick 11, ill. and early in the fall of 1935 slipped unob- trusively into life al Textile. For the be- wildered, verdant freshmen the first trying days of orientation and the half-hearted harrying 1 the Sophomores were s left behind, and we soon adapted our- selves to the routine of classes. An awakening sense of class unit) grev rapidly under the able leadership of Les Greene, our class president, and b Christinas we were able to sponsor OUT first social. The dance was successful, and as a class we were quite proud ol ourselves at the manner in which it was condu ted) despite the elloiis o| die Sophomores to disrupt it. The post-Christmas season found us deep in our books, plugging for Mid- years, and Striving to build up a decent average to impress the family at home. Our first determination to set the world on fire had cooled considerably, however, and most of us were satisfied to pass the olive wreath to the more trulv genius of our classmates. But Spring came at last. That was the year the Textile Players produced Mur- ray I Iill, stan in our own Ted Fox in the feminine lead, while Russ Cunningham and Fred Ekstrand furnished notable sup- port in die same play. As Sophomores we delved with renewed intensity into the intricacies of the in- dustry, and had our Inst real taste of tex- tiles ii. both lab and lecture. We were, as most classes, somewhat diminished in number , and although divided as Engin- eers and Chemists, the class was more united than ever. The engineers were in- troduced to the fundamentals of their pro- fession, and at Mid-years boned feverishly with the chemists for the inevitable T. C. and 1 ). exam. Junior year saw us closer to our goal. General engineers struggled despairingly with Heat, Electricity, and Mechanism- Design and Sales people talked vaguely of lenos and double cloths, and chemists buried themselves still more deeply in the steam and smell of the dye lab. A few muttered darkly over dyestuff formulae. But outstanding in the scholastic calendar of the year was the memorable struggle [38] with Professor Lowe ' s third year wool. Courses may come and courses may go, but the obstinately baffling theories and practice of Worsted Yarn Manufacture will be unforgotten, and dear to our hearts will be the memory of many a gallant stand made in defiance of the French Comb, the Intersecting Gill Box, and the minimum u.d. : wt £ « ' Gradually we had been broken into positions of responsibility. Burt Winkler was now president of Phi Psi, and Sam Levin and Hubert Murphy led S.O.P. and D.K.P. respectively. The trio of Fox, Cunningham, and Ekstrand again led the Players in the production of Good Morn- ing, and Fred Ekstrand took up the burden of editing the Text. Evvy Reed was pointing toward the managership of the Coop, and Phil Baker served as class secretary for her second year. In the field of athletics our class has been well represented. Russ Cunningham and Tom Reddish led Textile to its best foot- ball record since 1928. We won ' t forget the way they played their hearts out in an up- hill battle against Northeastern last fall. And we won ' t forget, either, the plucky playing of Eddie Spevack, of Sid Marsden in center field on the baseball nine, nor the belligerent aggressiveness of George Geor- gicouposopolis Gianaris in leading Tex- tile basketball through the season of ' 38- ' 3g. But ours has not been a class of either outstanding athletes or outstanding stu- dents, although fifteen of our number be- came eligible for Tau Epsilon Sigma at the end of last year. Rather it has been a class of spirit and of harmony — of such spirit and harmony that underclassmen would do well to achieve, and we are proud of it. Our gratitude goes out to a faculty with whom we are proud to have been associ- ated. Almost without exception they have been understanding, unassuming, and equitable. They have been sympathetic, friendly, and quick to offer their assistance. We have come to respect them for the work they do and the opinions they hold. We have met them and worked with them on a personal basis. W T e have found that we value their friendship and respect. Time has passed quickly. It seems that we have been able to do no more than to grab hold with one hand and hang on. We are now on the threshold of graduation— beyond the flurry, the flare, and the tinsel of Commencement, lies life. As a class we may never meet again, but the years we have spent together in striving toward a common goal will never be forgotten.

I .anner o R We — The Juniors THE history of the Class of 1940 un- doubtedly parallels thai ol the count- less classes which have gone before it. Il does not seem so to us. but perhaps it is only because we have met each succeeding year with Iresh eagerness and enthusiasm to discover what la beyond the next turn in the road. To the historian, such tacts as appear here record only the natural growth and progress of an ordinary group of students, but to us they serve as guide posts to the memory of three unforgettable years at Textile. Our first year, under the leadership of Fred Balas as president, introduced us gradually to the routine of college life. Our athletic teams -Basketball and Rifle —were moderately successful. They were, at least, the first recognized Freshman teams in the history of Textile.) We came to know- our classmates; we made lasting friendships. We became more closely bound together through our feuds with the Sophomores, and gradually the newness wore oil. As we look back now, we remem- ber the nervous t keen anticipation of orientation, the excitement of rushing and pledge week, the anxiety over our first exams, and our In si Christinas vacation I fpstream Day, and the Textile Show. Sophomore year we assumed a new air of sophistication, largely for the benefit of the new freshmen, who formed one of the largest entering classes in the history of Textile. Unfortunately for us the Freshmen were not easily vanquished, and after a hec- tic initiation we were glad to settle down to work. Those of us who went out into varsity sports soon realized that the going was harder, if anything, than our first year. As Juniors, we returned to school in the fall of 1 938 to find our class greatly reduced in size, but with the same spirit and en- thusiasm as ever, we plunged into this, our third year. With the dignity and reserve becoming Juniors we offered help to the [42] Freshmen in their impending struggles against the Sophomores. This year wit- nessed the advent of one of the most suc- cessful football seasons at Textile in ten years, and we are proud of those members of our class who contributed to its success. For already wearing sweaters bearing the T in recognition of their services are Rudy Meuser, now a three-year letterman of the squad, Boyd Chapman, Al Haas, Eddie Maslanka, and Joe Pelt. At Mid-years we mourned the loss of those three-year men who left our ranks to become Seniors. Good luck, fellows! Don ' t take any wooden nickels. We should not forget those, too, who have served the class in positions of much responsibility but little glory — Louise Fox and Malcolm Woodard, who each served as secretary; Larry Aigen, Art Wiesner, and Andy Nuttall, treasurers; Charlie Merritt and Art Davis, athletic representa- tives. As Juniors, we feel that we have shown ourselves competent in the activities and responsibilities set before us. For many of us it has been our most difficult year, and as such we are glad to see it past. Yet it is not without a sense of pride and accom- plishment that we review what is now his- tory. Our senior year is at hand. In a few months we will enter the last phase of our life at Textile, and we look forward to it with the sincere hope that we will be able to live up to the expectations that are held for us.

Mis-- Rich, Sullivan, Grondin H O M O R Principles of Sophistication WITH characteristic enthusiasm the Class oi ' 41 returned to the fold in September. [93B, with .1 ) 1 ar ' t valuabli experience t our credit, and with fresh determination and enthusiasm foi another year at Textile. We could sec in the awk- ward and dazed Class of ' 42 the exact images of ourselves only a year before, and it brought back memories. We remembered how Joe Pelt. President of last year ' s Sophomore Class, chewed nervously on a piece of gum as he laid down the law of Freshman conduct, how we painted our numerals in the shadow of the archway, and how we licked those same Sophs on Field Day. Our chosen leaders that year were Fred Mason, who did an admirable job as President; Francis Murphy, Vice-President; Joan Biron, Sec- retary; Gordon Leary, Treasurer; and Maurice Phillips, Representative to the Athletic Council. ( )ur outstanding athletes .is Freshmen were found in every sport. The Class of 1 1 contributed fresh blood to Textile ' s teams as Pop Roberts, Mac Mackl Frank Siegler, Dave Pernick, Mickey (i.iss. and ' Abe (irondin pulled them- selves into shape. The first difficult year was over before we realized it. Now we watched with an apprehensive eye the mounting numbers of the Class of ' 42, and it was not until all were officially registered and the heads of the Frosh ac- curately counted, that we felt capable of reasserting our superiority. At least we had unity, and proceeded to take full ad vantage of the bewildered re- cruits. Frowned on, or at least ignored by the Juniors, and scorned by the lofty Seniors, we soon submitted the aspiring first year men to the fitting humility of their office. [46] To prove that our belligerence was not entirely untempered with Textile spirit, we acted as hosts to the Freshmen at a banquet and smoker held in Southwick Hall. It was our misfortune, however, to choose the same evening to spread our- selves as did the famous Hurricane of 1938. Consequently the program which had been prepared by President Paul Sullivan and Professor Dow could not fully be enjoyed because of the tenseness and rest- lessness which everyone felt during the emergency. Our self-superiority was short-lived, however. Field Day saw the beginning o f our downfall, and with the inexorable, surreptitious pace of Organic Chem. lectures there loomed a fateful day of reckoning. The class was now divided against itself into Chemistry and Engineer- ing groups, but a fitting compensation were the bi-weekly sojourns in T.C. D. Here half of us laboriously copied vague notes and diagrams in unwilling- hand, while the rest dreamed on in blissful ignorance, or viewed with bleary dimness through the gloom from their lofty perch in the rear. Our support of athletics is as strong as ever, and our strength as a class has made advances. We feel certain that our progress in the future will be even greater, and that we may add to the prestige which Textile now commands.

LI ,1 ) by two or three souls less timid than the rest, some one hundred Freshmen confident, bul a Little gun-shj and untried under lire, moved hesitatingly into the fronl line trenches ol L. 1 .1. I he preliminary skirmishes ol orientation could not forecasl with what force the enemy faced us, but we quickl) re- ceived our baptism of lire. The week ol September [gth commemorates the hi si big power drive by the upperclassmen. The Freshmen passed through the nates of Southwick Hall that Monday morning without a worry smiling and eager to start. We were soon made acquainted with the rules of Freshman conduct, and were ordered to appear on the following morning suitably decked out. The Sophomores granted a slight respite the first week of school, however, when they played host to the Freshman Class at a banquet and smoker held in Southwick Hall. The hazing campaign was resumed next day and by compelling the Freshmen [5o] to perform the usual run ol ridiculous stunts, the Sophomores tried to break the Freshman spirit. But the germ of class pride had been planted, and a spirited rebellion soon surged to the surface. We launched a vigorous counter attack, and advanced on all fronts. Field Day clashes with the Sophs brought swift vengeance and we could again turn to face the world. The I reshmen had at last proven to their up- perclassmen that they were their equal, and the Class of ' 42 took its place on the campus as real Textile men. In October the fraternities opened the rushing season which was complete with smokers, dinners, theatre parties, dances, and other forms of entertainment. These features proved most enjoyable and were of great value to the Freshmen for it gave us a fine chance to get to know the upper- classmen. Thus passed the winter of ' 38- ' 3g, with steadily decreasing morale apparent in our ranks, for foremost in the attack of the enemy was Jimmy Dow ' s English, and endless English themes combined with moment arms and centers of gravity to make our camp another Valley Forge. Spring vacation gave us a momentary breathing spell, in which we could prepare for the last furious assault. It came. Forewarned as we were, we seemed pitifully weak and ineffectual against the swift, swooping attacks of the opposition. The fight was as desperate as it was short, and as quickly as they had come, the enemy retired to the hills — de- feated— -but for only a little while. Fall we know will bring them again to the attack. The Glass is very well represented at present in extra-curricular activities and on all of the athletic teams. Several mem- bers of the class have compared quite favorably in competition with upperclass- men in these fields. Earry St. Jean was elected president of the class on January 31, 1939. Other officers elected at that time to lead the class during its first year at the Institute were Harry A. Varnum, Vice-President; Roy T. Johnson, Secretary; Stanley Szopa, Treasurer; and Walter Lisien, Representative to the Executive Council.

Winkler IN 1927, Lowell Textile Institute created its own Phi Beta Kappa, namely, Tau Epsilon Sigma. The key, which is the in- signia of membership in Lowell ' s honor so- ciety is prized as the highest undergradu- ate award of merit attainable. To become eligible for candidacy in this honor society, the student, at the begin- ning; of the first term of his senior vear must have been on the President ' s List for four consecutive terms and his marks as a freshman must be of equal calibre. Should the marks of the student during his first term be below the required calibre, he may become a member of the society at the beginning of the second term of his fourth year, provided he has been on the President ' s List for five consecutive terms and has attained marks of equal calibre during the second term of the freshman year. A student may also become a candi- date for this society if at the end of the second term of his fourth year he can pre- sent evidence that his average for the en- tire course is 80% or better and that he has not failed in any subject.

Textile ' s opening baseball game with Brown was postponed due to rain. April 13, 1938. A hard-hitting Tufts team, after three scoreless innings, banged the ball all over the lot to win by a 13-2 score over Textile. April 21, 1938. Northeastern, scoring five runs in the last two innings, defeated Textile 5-1 . The game was a pitcher ' s duel all the way. April 22, 1938. U.S. Coast Guard, scoring two runs in the ninth inning on a Textile error, won by a 2-1 score. This was the first game played on the new Textile baseball field. April 23, 1938. Textile threw away a big lead in the last half of the game, and lost to Arnold by a 12-6 score before a large crowd on the Textile campus. April 2J, 1938. Textile, puzzled by the Norwich pitcher, was forced to accept a 9-1 licking on their home diamond. April 30, 1938. The Bates-Textile game was postponed due to rain. May 7, 1938. Textile journed to Northfield, Vt.,and hit out a 12-8 run score over Nor- wich ior the first victory of the season. May 12, 1938. The Textile-Providence game was postponed owing to rain.

In the first game of the season, Lowell Textile started on the comeback trail with the first gridiron victory since 1935. In holding the Wild- cats scoreless, Textile built its decisive victory about a passing and running attack which completely baffled the home team. Textile — jg, Panzer — o. The second game saw a reborn Textile eleven run and pass its way to a 39-0 win over the visitors from Jersey. Scoring honors went to Mackle with three touchdowns and two conversions, while Madden, Meuser, Cunningham, and Gass in the backfield played brilliant football. Textile — 24, New Britain Teachers- -o. The fact that this game was played under lights and in the fog failed to hinder Lowell ' s passing attack. Passes from Madden to Mackle and Meuser led the way to most of the scoring. It was during this game that Textile, due to mis- taken substitution, played for almost five minutes and scored with only ten men in the line-up. Textile — 12, Hyannis Teachers — 6. This game was played on one of the hottest days since summer, and saw one of the largest crowds ever assembled to watch a game on the Textile campus. For the first time since the season began, the Red and Black attack failed to click, and a fighting Teachers ' eleven kept the contest nearly even. Textile — 13, Northeastern — 13. In the most thrilling and closely fought contest of the season, Textile and Northeastern fought to a 13-13 tie. After making the first score, Textile was kept on the defensive until late in the final quarter. Time after time Textile was forced to hold for downs within their own 10-yard line, and only a belated last minute attack of their own brought the tying score. Textile — 33, Arnold — o. A favored L.T.I, team exhibited its full bag of tricks to wallop a heavy but impotent Arnold College invader at the Textile campus by the score of 33-0. Behind a brilliant passing attack Textile gave an impressive show, and after the opening score in the first period, the result was never in doubt. Textile — o, C.C.N. T. — 32. Textile entered the game a 3-2 favorite to keep their record clean of defeat, and for five minutes played like winners, marching 46 yards from their own 37 to C.C.N.Y. ' s 13. An intercepted pass lost the ball to C.C.N.Y., who immediately kicked out of danger. Textile never again seriously threatened the New Yorkers ' goal line, who de- feated Textile, 32-0 to drop the Red and Black from the ranks of the unbeaten. Textile — o, Norwich — g. L.T.I, gridmen los«. a thrilling game to Norwich University at Northfield, Vermont, as the Horsemen gathered a 9-0 win over a stronger Textile team. Textile completely outplayed the home boys, but failed to show a scoring punch. Norwich took advantage of every break, and emerged the victor. Textile — 25, American International — o. After being defeated and held scoreless for two straight games, Textile ra llied magnificently to put on one of the best exhibitions of foot- ball ever seen on the Textile campus. The running and passing attack characteristic of Tex- tile ' s play all season clicked with deadly precision to run up a 25-point score.

A strong M.I.T. team combined to defeat a hard fighting Textile team by 45-30. January 21, 1939. After watching Textile pile up a five point lead in the early mo- ments of play, Panzer College hoopsters hit their stride and went on to gain their tenth victory of the season by a score of 49-43 on the Southwick Hall floor. January 27, 1939. Brooklyn College hoopsters lived up to expectations and stopped Rusty Yarnall ' s Lowell Textile quintet by a score of 43-37. February 4, 1939. The classy Colby College team avenged an early season setback when they administered a 51-39 beating to Textile at Waterville, Maine, before more than 2000 people. February 6, 1939. New Hampshire University, taking an early lead, went on to triumph over an injured, hard fighting Textile team by a 52-32 count. February 10, 1939. Registering a basket and a foul shot in the overtime period, Hofstra College hoopsters edged out a 45-43 decision over Lowell Textile. It was a hotly contested tilt all the way. February 11, 1939. Forced to play without three regulars in the last eight minutes of the game, Lowell Textile ' s early lead vanished and Assumption College went on to win by a 32-31 score. February 15, 1939. Displaying a brilliant passing attack, Becker College won easily a 90-44 victory over Textile on a Worcester, Mass. court. [7i] February 18, 1939. Textile could not get going in the first half and fell behind American International College at Springfield by a 23-9 score. In the second half with three regulars out clue to foul ruling, A.I.C. piled it on to win by a 53-33 score. February 22, 1939. Foul shots gave Arnold a 41-38 victory over our team at New Haven, Conn. Twenty fouls were registered against Textile in this rough contest, the second of the New York trip. February 23, 1939. Wagner College, Staten Island, N. V., won over Textile 36-23 before a very large student gathering. The lust half was all Textile but a 24-point rally in the second clinched the game for Wagner. Captain ( rianaris col lee ted 10 points in this game. February 24, 1939. In a loosely played game at Brooklyn, N. Y., Pratt Institute had little trouble setting Textile back with a 47-2 1 verdict. February 25, 1939- Textile lost its fourth game of the trip to Brooklyn Polytech. by a 33-30 score. The first half was all ours, but Brooklyn staged a rally and collected 23 points in the second hall. March 3, 1939. For the second time this season, Si. Anselm ' s College tripped Textile on the Moody Street court, 46-35. The visitors got away to such a lead in the first half that ' Textile ' s second hall comeback was to no avail, b was a line game with the heavy scoring very well divided.

We were now free to improve both the house and the property as we saw fit. As a result, the house has been repaired and repainted, has an improved hot water heater and shower, and one less barn. The rushing season was one of the most successful and enjoyable in the history of the fraternity. At the beginning of the year, several parties were arranged for the Freshmen, while later parties celebrated Textile ' s long awaited football victories. The pledge program, planned by a com- mittee of Greene, Leary, Bone, Brantman, and Pelt, featured a Pledge Dinner at the fraternity house, a theater party, and a banquet at the New American Hotel. On December 10, Gamma Chapter played hosts for an Alumni Banquet held at the Rex Grill. The affair was well at- tended by both active members and alumni. On January 14, 1939, the third degree meeting was held at the Miles Standish Hotel in Boston, when sixteen pledges were received into Gamma Chapter. Pledges and members were also present from Beta and Delta Chapters of New Bedford and Fall River. One of the most successful socials of the year was held on February 17, when a Surrealist Party was given at the house. Music was supplied by Freeman Hatch and his student orchestra. [75] The Phlame Back Rmc: Misses Biron, Pratt, Cozad, Fox,  ' Do Front Row: Misses Foote, Lewis, Jarek, Keizer, M ghue, Woodard, Baker, Rich Olnej IN 1937 the girls of the Lowell Textile Institute, then numbering seven in all. united to form the nucleus of the first known textile sorority in the United States. Its aim today is not merely for its immediate success as a girl ' s organization; rather has it been the hope and inspiration of this small band of coeds that the sorority. like the flame for which it is named, will so increase in size and strength of charac- ter that it will be a guide for sororities in other textile schools throughout the country . In the infancy of its growth, the Phlame has already become firmly established at Textile. It has laced the disparaging forces which must be met by every new and aspiring organization, and has not only survived but has proved its right to recog- nition. Its roots, though new, are deeply placed. It has spirit and determination. Already the flame glows brighter. [76] Phlame Sorority Founded 1937 OFFICERS Helen J. Jarek Louise Fox Phyllis J.

At that time our two freshmen, June Cozad and Betty Pratt, both of Lowell, were inducted into the Sorority. The girls are graduates of Rogers Hall. The Sorority took part in no more social life until the Tuesday preceding our Thanksgiving recess, when we all went down to the Rex Grille for dinner. This was our first party of the school year. After vacation it wasn ' t so long before we began planning our annual Christmas party. This one was held at Dot Lewis ' , and looked like somebody ' s bedtime, as the accepted garb was that designed for retiring. In other words, we had a pajama party. At this time we acquired our rag doll mascot called Tex Phlame, now well known to all. That was all that happened until after we had gotten over our Mid-years. We camped out in the corridor for a week or so while our room underwent drastic changes. The windows were washed, the floor was varnished, curtains were hung, and some brand new furniture — long promised — was placed. In order to cele- brate and show off our furniture we had a tea on February 1 1 . The instructors and their wives were invited and a goodly number turned out in spite of the bad weather that afternoon. The following week, on February 14, we had our first big social event that in- cluded men. We had a tea-dance at June Gozad ' s house. The patrons and patron- esses were: Dr. and Mrs. Louis A. Olney, Rev. and Mrs. Simeon Cozad, Miss Vit- toria Rosatto, and Miss Foote. The affair was a success and we hope to have a simi- lar event in the spring. We would like to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to Miss Rosatto for her interest and activity in our behalf, to the office force here at the Institute, and to our many other friends both inside and outside of school.

Wolf Sigma Omega Psi Socials UPON their return to school this Fall, the fratres of Sigma Omega Psi were delighted to find that during the sweltering summer months the fraternity house had received a new coat of paint and was well ready to play expectant host to the numerous social events that would take place within its walls during the year. Since the exterior of the house had also been redecorated, at an early meeting of the season it was decided that several new additions to the interior of the house would not be out of order. Accordingly, it was voted to purchase both a new RCA Victor radio and recording machine and a ping pong table. With the opening of school and the beginning of the annual rushing period, the first social event of any importance to be held at the house was a smoker to which all Freshman eligible to join the fraternity were invited. All present agreed that this opening affair, which featured a talk by Coach Rusty Yarnall and ad- dresses by the Grand Superior of the fraternity, Irving Rudin, and several other alumni, was a great success. Close on the heels of this event came another affair, the Annual Pledge Dance, which was given to introduce the Freshman to the eligible girls of Lowell and vicinity. This dance was attended in great number by men from other chapters in New England as well as from Eta. Well remembered by all who were present will be the play which was given by the pledges, which featured some hilarious unrehearsed an- tics by the performers. Following the an- nouncement of the men who were to be pledged for the year, the pre-initiation period began. A great time was had by all of the old members at the expense of the new ones. As a fitting conclusion to ac- tivities of that period, a formal initiation and dinner dance was held at the New American Hotel on December 2, 1938. With the advent of snow early in Febru- ary, a motion was made to have a sleigh party, to be followed by a dance at the house. Unanimous was the vote, and on February 4, at about ten o ' clock, sixteen joyous couples piled into a sledge, and were off to parts unknown. Frozen stiff, they returned to the house for refresh- ments and the proposed dance for those who could still walk. The social season at present is very young, and all are looking forward to the Inter-Fraternity Formal and the annual Text Show to be held early this spring. In addition to these events there will be many more minor parties and dances at the house. Plans for a National Conven- tion to be held in New York City early in June in conjunction with the World ' s Fair are being considered. [85] A U R Textile Show April 28, 1939 h [9o] Lowell Textile Players OFFICERS Fred Ekstrand, President Theodore Fox, Vice-President Charles Merritt, Secretary Stuart Bone, Business Manager Rudolph W. Meuser, Stage Manager Professor Elmer Fickett, Treasurer and Faculty Adviser Professor Russell Brown, Associate Faculty Adviser The Haunted House By Owen Davis At their annual show and dance on Friday, April 28, the Lowell Textile Players presented a sparkling and fast- moving comedy by Owen Davis, featuring for dancing afterwards the well-known Fenton Brothers orchestra. The cast, composed almost entirely of Seniors, included Ted Fox as the heroine and bride, and Charles Merritt, the groom. The plot begins to evolve when this charming young couple arrive to spend their honeymoon in a summer cottage owned by the girl ' s father, who has begged them not to go there because he claims the house is haunted. Bill Reed soon appears as the black-mailing ex-sweetheart of the groom, and is later reported murdered. The case falls into the hands of a self- styled writer and criminologist, Fred Ek- strand, who with the help of a visiting New York detective, played by Si Whee- lock, attempts to solve the murder. Before they are through they have involved everyone in the action. Unfortunately for the crime experts, the whole thing ends in a laugh with the most unexpected conclu- sion imaginable. The show was under the direction of Coach Charles Keyes, director of many previous productions of the Players. [9i] The Cast i ft i k . ft- ' 1 I- ft°n a. .

The head of the building committee was Mr. Phillip L. Scannell, chairman of the board of trustees. Mr. Scannell welcomed the assembly and presented the keys of the building to President Panics, who turned them over, alter a lew words of explana- tion, to Dr. Louis A. Olney, he. id of the chemistry department. After an orchestral selection. President Barnes extended the congratulations ol the Textile Organization of the United States upon the addition of such a splendid unit to the school. Honorable Dewey (i. Arch.unbanlt, Mayor of Powell, presented the good wishes of the city and pledged its ready co- operation and assistance to the Institute. The speaker of the day was the Rev. John J. McGarry, pastor of the Sacred Heart Church, Roslindale, formerly of Lowell, who gave a fascinating account of the life of Louis Pasteur, after whom the building is named. At the conclusion of his speech, Fr. McGarry presented Presi- dent Eames with an autographed letter of Pasteur as a token of good will and as a symbol of chemical achievement and inspiration. At the conclusion of the exercises, Presi- dent Eames led the entire assembly on a tour throughout the building. The Louis Pasteur Hall is devoted ex- clusively to chemistry, a much needed and valuable addition to the school. On the first floor is a large chemical library, an organic laboratory, a photo- graphic laboratory, a microscope labor- atory, a colloidal chemistry laboratory, five small research laboratories, and sev- eral recitation rooms. The former organic laboratory becomes a laboratory devoted to textile chemistry. The second floor has a large lecture hall with tiered seats capable of seating [50 students; a new quantitative laboratory; a balance room; recitation rooms, special laboratories for electrolytic analysis, coal and oil analysis, and research; a calori- meter room; and an instructors ' room. ( )n the third floor is a large experiment- al dyeing laboratory, recitation rooms, a large storeroom for chestulf samples, a smaller special dyeing laboratory, and sev- eral research laboratories. The research laboratories throughout the building are for the use of seniors doing thesis w r ork. In them the) can set up complicated ap- paratus withoul the danger of having it disturbed by other students using the same room. 1 he former quantitative laboratory is changed to a micro-biology laboratory, and the old dyeing laboratory is to be used as an extension ol the room for practical dyeing machinery. The building which has been dreamed ot for many years is now a realization, and the students and faculty can well be proud of the fact that Lowell Textile Institute has one of the latest and finest equipped chemistry departments in the country. The history of the school began in Feb- ruary, 1897, when the Lowell Textile School opened on Middle Street, in down- town Lowell, in rented quarters which [94] housed three departments — design, cotton yarns, and chemistry and dyeing. More departments were added — weaving, wool- en and worsted yarns, and much equip- ment was obtained for the school. Soon Mr. Frederick Fanning Ayer be- came interested in the school, donated the site upon which the school now stands, and furnished funds for the erection of South- wick Hall. This hall is named in honor of an ancestor of Mr. Ayer, Mr. Royal South- wick, whose portrait now hangs in the assembly hall. The building was con- structed during the years 1902- 1903, and the school moved to the new quarters in the spring of 1 903. Very soon after, the heirs of Richard Kitson — Charlotte P. Kitson and Emma K. Stott— -gave money for Kitson Hall, and a one-story building, without a basement, was built. The same space is now occupied by the cotton department. Then followed donations by several prominent individuals and from the state, which were used to construct a one story building and basement (the picker room and basement now) occupied by the power plant, and a one story building which now houses the weaving and wool departments. Early in 1904 the present southeast corner building — known as Head House — was built. It housed, as now, the design, warp preparation, worsted yarns sections. In 1906, the space under Kitson Hall was excavated and a basement — now housing the electrical lab, steam lab and machine shop — was provided. In 1909, the second story of the Fal- mouth Street building (over the weave- room) was built to connect with the Head House. As a result, space was then avail- able for the hand looms which had previ- ously been located in the present gymnasi- um in Southwick Hall. In 19 10, the first story of the Colonial Avenue building, now Louis Pasteur Hall, was constructed, and provided room for woolen yarns, wool sorting, and experi- mental dyeing. During 1 9 1 o- 1 1 , the present power- plant building — entirely separate from the rest of the school — was constructed, and made room for the picker which re- placed it. In 191 7, the second story of Kitson Hall, and also the space occupied by the lunchroom and students room, was built. This room was used as barracks, mess-hall, and kitchen for a Students Army Training Corps during the fall of 1918. (This fact explains the huge range, coffee kettle, and soup boiler in the present lunch-room.) The rifle-range today was then used as the mess-hall, and the upper part of Kitson Hall was used as barracks, with lines and lines of cots. In 1937, the State appropriated $150,- 000 for a new chemistry building, and another $50,000 for equipment in 1938. This building, Louis Pasteur Hall, is now completed, and equipment is being added. Little did the founders of the school realize how much it would spread, for, at the time of building it, Southwick Hall seemed sufficient for all uses! Thus has been presented the history of the Lowell Textile Institute. May it have another two-score years of history as fruit- ful as the first. [95] Field Day— 1938 WITH an eye toward keeping the spun l competition keener over a longer period ol time, the in. inner l pre- senting the annual Freshman-Sophomore Field Day events ol 1938 was soinewli.it altered from previous years, and instead of running off the entire series in one afternoon, the hostilities were scheduled for the spare hours l .1 number oi con- secutive Wednesdays. The feelins; was high in both classes. As determined as were the Freshmen to free themselves from the iron hand of the Sophomore class, so were the Sophomores determined to subjugate the Freshmen until Christmas. Such loud hopes ol ' the upperclassmen, however, were not to be realized, for the Class of 1 942 soon demon- strated its athletic ability and freed itself from bondage. The Freshmen drew first blood by win- ning a two inning baseball game, 6-0. The following Wednesday found the Freshmen again victorious, this time in the track and field events and touch football, the verdict being 9-8. The 100-yard dash and the tug- ol-war were won by the Sophomores, but the touch football, the 440-yard dash, and the relay went to the Frosh. At this point in the (oniest the Frosh had obtained 4 ol ' the b points required lor victory. The basketball game, which took place on the third Wednesday, gave to the Class ol ' 42 the -■ points that they needed. Al- though the ' 4. line was hard fought by the Sophomores, the freshmen took an early lead a u were never headed. The final score was 21-10. Hackanson starred for the winners, registering 11 of the 21 points, while Proulx led the Sophomore attack with 7 points. The Freshmen were now free and lost no time in discarding their caps, pins, and sweaters. Although the result of the football game held on November 3 was inconsccjuential in deciding the contest, still both sides fought to win. A 6-0 win by the Sopho- mores featured a beautiful 30-yard run for a touchdown by Morton in the last quarter, as well as a 50-yard pass by Armstrong which very nearly tied up the game. [96] hjhmjM [97] Upstream Day 1938 WITH resounding shouts echoing from the windows, two large busses rolled out of the yard and onto the main road to Canobie Lake, Salem, New Hampshire. It was Wednesday morning, May i 1, 1938; the day was bright and clear: and one hundred and thirty-one students and in- structors were on their way to participate in one of Textile ' s most traditional and time-honored holidays Upstream l).i . Within a few minutes alter their arrival at the park, the entire body had dispersed and set out to learn what varied activity was to be theirs for the day. Wandering observers found in their paths numerous games of football, baseball, and horseshoes, while far from the madding crowd, the cribbage addicts were huddled about an old wooden table, pursuing their ne farious activities with little fear of having a bell interrupt the peace of their new-found seclusion. Still others had wandered to another den of iniquity, the Penny Arcade, where with bated breath they watched the horses round the three-quarter mark, or with joyous rapture listened over and over again to that classic of classics, Larry Clinton ' s recording of Martha. The scheduled events of the morning, the inter-class baseball games, were won by the Seniors. In doing this, the Seniors kept intact their record of not having lost a srame since their entrance into school lour years previous. The Instructor-Senior game, which incidentally was won by the Seniors, 7-b. featured among other things Professor I ' ,d Wells ' first hit in the history of his participation in Upstream Day baseball. With the sounding ol the dinner gong there was a mad dash for the pavilion, where the host of hungry men soon quieted down to partake of a delicious repast. hollowing the banquet the well laden merry-makers departed from the banquet hall to seek respite under the shady trees and in the cool grass. The activities were resumed with the running off of the relay race. It was won by the Seniors, with the Juniors coming second, and the freshmen third. Other activity took place in the skating rink, where the more en- thusiastic skaters engaged in some breath- taking spills, and the more conservative ones contented themselves with cautious sallies around the rink. By this time, the afternoon had drawn to a close. The shadows were beginning to lengthen, and after a well-appreciated buffet supper the entire group once more took to the busses to return, somewhat weary, yet thoroughly satisfied, to Lowell. Though the expression may seem trite, we may fittingly conclude by saying that a thoroughly enjoyable time was had by all who took part in the outing. [98] Alma Mater Fair Textile, Alma Mater, we ' ll e ' er be true to thee, Thy name in honor keeping, in steadfast loyalty. When first we came we loved thee, and though sorrow fills each heart, For happy college memories, we love thee as we part. Long may thy sons, brave Textile, lead forth thy banner bright; In fellowship united, as we are here tonight. Then a toast to Alma Mater, and lift your glasses high In pledge to Textile ' s glorious name, for her to live and die.
