EAMES President Emeritus November 17, 1875— January 29, 1919 LOUIS A. OLNEY Professor Emeritus Textile Chemistry April 21, 1874— February 11, 1949 9n Memofriam The start ' of The 1949 Pickout joins the faculty and the students of Lowell Textile Institute in honoring the memory of two beloved and respected men who were largely responsible for the development and the progress of Lowell Textile Institute. Both President Emeritus Charles H. Eames and Professor Emeritus Louis A. Olnev came to Textile when it was a young and unknown school struggling for recognition and gave to the Institute the best thev had both in administration and instruction. Charles H. Eames was born in Andover, Massachusetts, in 1875 and attended Punchard Free School and Massachusetts Institute of Technology from which he received his degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engi- neering. After his graduation, he worked for the Milford Light and Power Company and Stone and Webster Company in Boston. In 1905, Mr. Eames was appointed an instructor in the Department of Engineering at Textile and secretary to Principal William W. Crosby. When Mr. Crosby resigned in 1907, Mr. Eames was named as his successor, and remained in that position until 1918 when the office of Principal was changed to that of President. He held that office until his retirement in 1945. Mr. Eames was a member of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, the American Society for the Advancement of Science, the Na- tional Association of Cotton Manufacturers, and the American Textile Foundation. Fraternally, he was a 32nd degree Mason, and a member of the Ahasuerus Council, Royal and Select Masters, Royal Arch Chapter, and the Scottish Rite Bodies of Lowell. Dr. Louis A. Olney succumbed on February 11, 1949 to injuries received in a traffic accident which also claimed the life of his wife Bertha. He was born in Providence, Rhode Island, in 1874 and attended Lehigh University from which he received his Bachelor of Science degree in 1906 and his Mas- ter ' s degree in 1908. In 1926, Lehigh University awarded him an honorary Doctor of Science degree. Dr. Olney taught chemistry at Brown University before coming to Textile to organize the Department of Textile Chemistry and Dyeing. From a small beginning came the present chemical division of the Institute. When the school moved to its present location, the chemistry department expanded, and, through the untiring work of Dr. Olney, whose plans for the location of laboratories and classrooms were largely accepted, the present- day Louis Pasteur Hall was designed and erected. He was also the founder of the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists. Dr. Olnev was always interested in research for the advancement of textile chemistry and dyeing, and was largely responsible for the establishment of various research projects which even now are being carried on in our laboratories. He had written several books dealing with color chemistry as applied to textiles on which he was a recognized authority. Both of these men will be greatly missed from the general textile world and from Lowell Textile Institute. The contributions thev have made to t the industry will be long remembered, while the benefits gained by the Institute from their untiring efforts will be reflected in its continued prestige and advancement. 11 Plelide+it Ken+tetU (I. fy x. Educator . . . Leader . . . Builder IT is gratifying to note that this year ' s Pickout is dedicated to an exposition of what college life can mean to the student body. All of us are prone at times to overlook the significance of our cur- rent experiences and consider our day-to-day existence as a part of life removed from the whole. Such a philosophy is a fleeting one and will not stand the rigors of time. And so it is commendable to depict in this school yearbook, both by word and photograph, the inclu- sive program of student activity and its value to the future indus- trial leaders of the textile and allied industries. The success of any project depends upon many factors, not the least of which is a very careful consideration of what is expected in the way of final results. Research workers often speak of this ap- proach in terms of defining the problem. It is necessary also to com- bine solid judgment with the best trained minds possible and, as a team, bring the most efficient methods to bear upon the intermedi- ate steps leading to the ultimate goal. And yet, this procedure is only part of the story. Generously sprinkled among these ingredients must be an indomitable spirit and unbridled enthusiasm for the work to be done. This is true whether one is considering such generally accepted routine matters as home life, hobbies, bread and butter vocations, or simply the art of living. A college tenure is no exception. To attain maximum satis- faction and value from your collegiate years, there must be an ex- citing spirit of adventure in such matters as class and laboratory attendance along with participation in extra-curricular activities. This point of view is often characterized as college spirit. I urge upon all of you as students to consider this state of mind as it may make your stay with us a happier and more worthwhile one. To the graduating class, a special word of congratulation is ap- propriate. You have labored well, and the attainment of a college education is yours. Combine with your technical knowledge this spirit of adventure and enthusiasm for living and your happiness and success must follow. 2 east Siman lAJilliaml Scientist . . . Educator . . . Friend ONE of the outstanding characteristics of modern society is the bewildering rate at which knowledge in all disciplines is being accumulated. As a result, when one attempts to define those factors most influential in effecting the success and happiness of an indi- vidual leaving college, this somewhat disconcerting position is re- vealed; no matter what activity in society is defined, e.g. citizen, technologist, manufacturer, civil servant, teacher; no matter how well a student has learned those subjects to which he has been ex- posed; no matter how specific the job to be taken; no matter what previous experiences have been enjoyed, each graduate must re- main a student, perennially, if he is to maintain his competitive and personal attainments. No industry reflects more clearly than the textile industry the need for and constant requirement of a dynamic integration of available knowledge from an infinite variety of sources. It is in the high hope that you have been given the mental tools to meet this challenge that I wish the Class of 1949 every good wish for the future. SSL. +X i  f Alma Mate 4W e4 T the history of an institution such as Lowell Textile Institute, many things occur which appear as iso- lated instances, but which are, in reality, parts of the whole. Many classes have appeared and then disap- peared. Each class has been a separate, individual en- tity: and yet. through each class are woven the threads which form the entire pattern. The pattern which is formed, although never finished, may be easily distin- guished. It may he summed up in one word, spirit. ' It is an emotion, a sense of love, a sense of pride, which can only be felt by a student or alumnus of the Institute. Throughout the history of Lowell Textile Institute, the spirit, as well as the physical plant, has grown apace. This spirit has grown in the sense that an alumnus can point with pride toward the Institute and say, That ' s my Alma Mater. It has grown in the sense that a stu- dent can point with pride toward the Institute and say, ' That ' s the school to which I go. It has grown as a small seed of an idea, planted, well-watered, and well- cared for, can grow. It has grown as only something with a strong will can grow. The spirit embodied in Lowell Textile Institute did not bloom forth overnight. It was the culmination of periods beset with many difficulties. It took almost half a century to bring this spirit to the point which it has 1897 — Our first home 17 extili u e men Have +iauK Jit ta fy e CL i reached today. It began as a very small idea in 1895 when a corporation, known as The Trustees of the Lowell Textile School, was formed for the purpose of establishing and maintaining a textile school for in- struction in the theory and practical art of textile and kindred branches of industry. . . ' The original plant where classes commenced in 1897 was in rented quarters in the downtown area of Lowell. In 1899, with the aid of both public and private donations, construction was begun on the present site of the Institute and the cam- pus was occupied in 1903. Shortly thereafter, the late President Emeritus Charles H. Eames was appointed as the first president of Lowell Textile Institute. In 1910, the Colonial Avenue Building was built. Athletic fields were laid out around the school, gym- nasium facilities were added, and boating facilities were improved. In 1918, the custody of the Institute was transferred to the State. In the ensuing years, the plant remained much the same; but many changes were made in the standards and in the curriculum of the Institute. Louis Pasteur Hall was added in 1937. The intervening war years brought activity at the Institute to a virtual standstill. With the end of the war, however, new life came to the Institute. Many veterans returned to their studies and new students flooded the halls. President Eames retired and was suc- ceeded by Kenneth R. Fox, B.T.E., S.M., F.T.I., a 18 1 1899 — Construction begun for the . . . new campus — 1902 19 Alma Matek tf.on ue k theJArmy was never like this Unveiling Portrait of President Emeritus Eames — 1947 The Locomotive 20 Qiite Ueb tUe+t a tau incj, clieel, graduate of the class of ' 38. Never was the spirit of the Institute so much in evidence as at this time. Activities which lay dormant during the war were revived. Basket- ball, baseball, football, and other sports were once again established. Scholastic and technical clubs and associa- tions were reactivated. The Interfraternity Council once again took hold to govern the relations among the fraternities. The Pickout Staff resumed its publication of the yearbook. The Text once again began meeting its deadline. The Textile Players resumed their dramatic activities. The Rifle Club sharpshooters once again faced their targets. New organizations were formed. Foremost among these was the Student Government, which through the Student Council governs all student activities. Glee clubs for both men and women were formed. The Inter- national Students ' Circle, comprised of students from eleven foreign countries, was established. A golf team was organized. The Nucleus, an organization of out- standing students, was created. During these hectic post-war years, further physical, academic, and organizational changes were brought forth. Bachelor of Science degrees were to be given instead of the previous awards of Bachelor of Textile Engineering and Bachelor of Textile Chemistry. The Institute was accredited by the New England Regional Council of Colleges. Many changes were made in the curriculum of the school and greater stress was laid on the social sciences than had hitherto been the policy. Field Trip Tex Show 21 Il e w-ill tieue i lo-Mahe he i ur years ' ' work In accordance with the new policies of the Institute, the office of Dean was created and Simon Williams, B.S., M.F., Ph.D., was appointed to this post. Many new additions were made to the faculty of the Institute. President Fox, who at the time of his assumption of office was the youngest college president in the nation, brought with him new and dynamic ideas, foremost among which was the physical expansion of the Insti- tute. In the four years following the appointment of President Fox, two new dormitories were constructed. Included in the lavout of these new dormitories were a cafeteria suitable for the increased student bodv and a recreational hall for the use of the students during their free hours. Ground was broken this spring and plans readied for the erection of new science and administra- tion buildings, and for a library which will also house the offices for student activities. Further plans are in process of development for paper and leather technology schools. The increased activity around the Institute and the physical developments which are occurring do not tell the full story. It has been generally realized that Textile 22 All tltiauCflt llLe a osie Uei has gone far beyond its original purpose of merely instructing students in the practical aspects of the industry. It has not only instructed them but it has also produced leaders in the field. They have made the in- dustry not only more efficient, but also more modern. They have, by reason of their training, been able to apply new physical and chemical developments and discoveries to the field of textiles. In providing these men, the Institute has served the textile industry extremely well. However, in recent years, there has been a growing awareness that greater emphasis must be placed upon fundamental and applied research so that th e Institute might be not only abreast of the industry in general, but ahead of it. Bearing this thought in mind, the Institute has strived to lay greater stress upon the theoretical factors of textiles than has previously been done. In the past two decades, the textile industry has changed from a dormant industry to a dynamic one. Today, a graduate of the Institute becomes not merely a part of this constantly changing industry, he becomes a leader of it. Big Wheels tf-i im al adamant 4,lte itattdi. A young man facing the world today is challenged by its great complexity and hindered by the various ob- stacles it places in the way of his success. He may have gone to an institute such as Textile and have acquired the tools to aid him in the realm of business. There is, also, however, the necessity of making a success of life; and in order to do this, he must first know how to live. This is the difficult part of success; for living is difficult and knowing how to live correctly is infinitely more difficult. Although every human being has his own concept of what constitutes living or of what should constitute it, there is a certain general standard to which society adheres. Schooling cannot teach one how to live cor- rectly, it can merely give an indication as to the proper path to pursue. In a school such as Textile, there is often a tendency for the student to become narrow in thought, to immerse himself in his chosen field, to forget about living and about how the rest of the world lives. Some- times he even forgets that there is more of the world. In an effort to counteract this type of thinking and to broaden the horizons of the students, there have been established, in the past few years, courses in the social sciences and humanities. These subjects can merely show us the way toward life; they cannot lead us. There is, however, something else provided by the Institute to aid in the quest for success. It is something which Studious? 14 +tite al off yaie Smith Hall Ring around the Rosey llie (led and Qlaok, haul and Babee Lobby . . . Smith Hall tf-akeoesi male. Night . cannot be taught in any class, nor can it be found in any book. It is the art of learning to get along with other people. It is the understanding that a man is a man no matter where his ancestors came from or what his religion may be. It is the knowledge that people are not merely cogs in the machines of life. It is the urge to strive for the better things in life, not merely the mun- dane — to aim for the stars, and not just for the rooftops. It is the understanding of these things which can show the way to success in life. In the Institute ' s fifty-two years of history, customs and traditions have arisen giving first the student and then the alumnus a sense of belonging, a feeling of one- ness, with it. This emotion has arisen, not from any organized effort, but from a spontaneous sense of love and pride. It has arisen because we remember fondly the many occurrences which go to round out life, the football games on a damp November afternoon, the fraternity parties and school dances, Upstream Day and the Tex Show, the visits to the Lobster Cot and Coles Inn, the bull sessions over a bottle of beer, the bridge games in the old Rec Hall, Ma Swanson ' s French cuisine, and the warm and gay comradeship which we have found. These and many more we will remember. These and many more we are now experiencing. This emotion has arisen from a sense of pride in what the Institute has done, in what it is doing, and in what it will do in the future; for Lowell Textile Institute is aiming for the stars. 8 fja+iualif, January came in, cold and white, as did our sad vacationers. But once again, with exams a short way off, the grind got under way, and we aren ' t referring to the bumps variety. This new month, as an omen of the New Year, saw many of our organiza- tions reactivated after their war-time lethargy. The Engineering Society, stimu- lated by aspiring engineers, took on new garb. Plans for trips, lectures and the like were carefully laid and hatched. The Textile Players chose The Male Animal for their annual ' ' legit ' ' endeavor. And then, fellas, the bed fell in. Who ' s got the benzedrine? Yes, sad, but true — exams. The most rugged of all exam encounters is to study cal- culus up at George ' s. How about that, sophs? Ain ' t it too noisy? We ' ll file a complaint with the Dean. And then, as if it weren ' t bad enough waiting for Charlie Edlund to Exams — Exams — Exams- 30 mark the papers (don ' t laugh, Harry Brown, you ' re in on this), that scourge of the neophytes, Hellweek, began. We heard that it ' s mighty chilly on those lonesome roads. Also of major importance was the activity of the newly organized Place- ment Bureau. Every graduate is guaranteed a job at $15,000 a year to start. But don ' t despair, gang! There are ample opportunities for advance- ment. If these offers get much better, Jim Bell will be forced to accept one himself. Doctor Donald Mallett of Purdue University honored us with a visit for the purpose of discussing What is Education? We understand that Russ straightened him out. The sen- iors, finally recuperating from an excess of snow, both in and out of the classroom, staged a brilliant coming out party — Professor Charles F. Ed- lund poured. He ' s a big one Timber-r-r So this is how it ' s done! 31 Infantry Material fyeb iua uf, The new dorm had been a topic of dis- cussion ever since the first postwar Pickout was published; but now it approached a reality, with completion in sight. Convocations were initiated with a long list of renowned speakers. This inno- vation turned out to be a genuine treat and a high spot in each week ' s program. A danceband composed of Textile tooters was formed — sweetest music this side of Guy Lombardo. The girls ' glee club tried to compete but were roaringly drowned. The Pickout staff were awarded keys (symbol of blood loss) ; it ' s rumored about that one coed has two of them. Student government elections were in the offing and myriads of office seekers were exhibiting posters and circulating other types of propaganda. During all this excitement, several of our note- worthies attended a marriage forum in Boston, the hub of the air universe, and added some of their own (air, that is) . Meet you at eight It went that-a-way Color Slaves 33 Match Picking out THE PICKOUT Getting back to elections, there were many close races. The pollsters showed up in fine form, in contrast to another election of equal magnitude, of which we could speak. The meet-your- candidate assembly was a fine affair, giving the perceiving student an excellent opportunity to test his snap-judgment technique. And then came Ye Olde Springe Vacatione. By this time some of last December ' s snow had melted; and once again, Lowell ' s maintenance and road department had correctly predicted the thaw (and waited for it) ! The basketball season came to an end after a fair season. The baseball schedule was announced and appeared formidable. The Pink Edition of The Text was re- leased — truly a laugh riot. Some readers saw red. The arrival of April heralded the first real signs of spring. And our fancies turned. . .Xnd we trust that Dunkel of Dunkel ' s Ratings received our scathing- letter. He had no right to give the boys such a low rating. Rusty was put out no end. Evidently, this guy Dunkel had not been informed of Rusty ' s undefeated season (of 1928). By this time, the seniors were all gazing glassy-eyed into the future. Old two-beer Smoler, blood and guts Murphy, and others were enjoying weekly farewells, imparting lasting words of wisdom to understudies who were left to carry on. You held up your end, Gregg! 34 : The Maestro Steampipe ( ' anyon Elbow-Benders 35 ApA.il The election of the first student government at L.T.I, brought to life a new era in labor-management relations. This election must have made the great American politico Sam Adams turn over in his grave. An adeptly handled coup —a whis- pered word — a furtive glance — and then a recount. An active council was formed and it lost no time in promot- ing and designing a student-ratified constitution. Somewhat in a more serious vein, however, The Pickout says hats off to these men of our first Student Council. They have done a great job, and The Pickout wishes to express its sincere gratitude. In an educational light, Lowell Textile Institute took a great step for- ward in textile education with the establishment of an exchange profes- sorship with the LTniversity of Man- chester in England. The men involved were Professors Merrill and Morton, the latter of England. It is reported that both men learned quite a bit — could we expect anything else? The Snake Pit The Rock Pile At least look interested! V ■::- 36 ■ fm Wuxtry! Wuxtry ! What ' s my cue? 37 Mi at The Crepe Hangers r I he Tex Show and Formal were - - high spots on our calendar for the year. A fine presentation of The Male Animal, followed by a splendid dance, furnished all patrons with a new-found exuberance. Tuxedo rentals boomed all the way to Wall Street, forcing rails up another two points. This week-end saw quite a lot of activity with the frats in full swing the entire time. ( Da town was filtv wit dem Textile hoodlums — to quote a well- known Kearney square. ) Also in town were the Alumni, a raucous group, celebrating their 49th annual reunion. As one of them ex- pressed it, It ' s the type of thing that Let them eat cake Pandora ' s Box 38 sort of gets you, (uttered with one baud iu his pocket and the other placed soothingly over his heart) . And then we battled our way up- stream. It was a great day for the tirish . Horseshoes, two-fers , beer, turkey, baseball, beer, boating, beer, etc. The Faculty was finally put to the test. Need more be said? Graduation rolled around in no time at all, and an inspiring Bac- calaureate Service was held on May 30. Two days later, Commencement exercises were held for fifty -five sen- iors and sixteen graduate students. Good luck, fellas, and don ' t forget the place what learnt yez.

Through the Placement Bureau, and other devious means, the boys were working within a fortnight after final exams. Of course, it wasn ' t really work at all. In fact, al- most everyone enjoyed the grind and appreciated the benefits derived there- from! (If anyone thinks of one, please drop a note in our box.) For the most part, the pace was torrid. It seems that the chief problem which was encountered was remaining single and, if not single, remaining burdenless. The Pickout wishes to go on record as supporting marriages and births. We think they ' re grand, and so you have our heartfelt and sincerest best wishes. Of course, we trust that you won ' t make a habit of this practice. Under the supervision of Professor Vitt Rosatto, Mr. George Armstrong and Professor Ed Golec of the Design Department put out a dandy novel on lace manufacture. The book received rave notices, such as: Truly an exciting tale! Cleveland Grand Slam; On every- one ' s best-seller list! New York and London Crimes. Getting back to the work jag — Old Uncle Robbie was studying labor rela- tions down at the Merrimac Mills. (And he kept those looms — kleen!) The summer went by rather quickly and the students began to think wist- fully of old L.T.I. (They had no idea that Stuart Mandell had been hired as an instructor.) The hot summer months waned. Everyone was tired of loafing, and the long wait began. We speak of the wait as the time elapsing before the announcement of the registration dates. Summer ended. Had L.T.I, burned to the ground? Old friend, (meeting va- grant on street) can you tell me something of Lowell Textile Institute? Yeah, says he, it moved from Moody Street to Textile Avenue. The Last Mile lace makers 41 Sejxtembe The whistle for the kick-off blew and Lowell Textile Institute started another fall year. Peppy girl cheerleaders added a new note along with the new dormitory and cafeteria. Also, the stone imprint above the archway no longer read Lowell Textile School, but Lowell Textile Institute. House parties began at Omicron Pi and Alpha Epsilon where- as Delta Kappa Phi held a big dance. The frosh walked away with the Field Day events and the Student Council started its campaign. Fresh- man elections followed; and with the national presidential campaign in full swing, everybody became politically minded at the same time. The Textile banquet at the Memorial Auditorium was as popular as ever. The football team ran a dance at a local nite spot and an enormous amount of joviality was energized. A fashion show with many oomphy women — and inci- dentally beautiful gowns — wowed the boys at Convocation. A crowning And Be-bop too Frosh vs. Sophs The Taffy Pull success was the dance sponsored jointly by Lowell Teachers College and Lowell Textile Institute under the direction of the L.T.C. social commit- tee and Student Council of L.T.I. A new and jazzy feature was Lowell Textile Institute ' s own band, provid- ing the swing and sway. Thus, the whistle blew and the first quarter ended.

Our horde of potential vertical integration schemers enjoyed that one. . .a fabulous character, eh Charlie?

It seems that everyone was smarting from some- thing; the gridders, from five straight goose-eggs and everyone else from every- thing in general. And then came the soul-stirring fash- ion show! Live women not overdressed — showed liberal education at its best! However, Williams didn ' t bat an eye. With square and determined jaw, he issued a statement: No more butts should be dropped on the floor. Thank you, Dean Simon A. Williams. The front office released further plans for the building program. Library and Science buildings were to be under con- struction in the spring. Meanwhile, towards the end of the season, the football team caught on and played a couple of beauts. The results of the national election were predicted by an official agency — read The Text, Vol. XXVII— No. 5- L.T.I. scores again! The only major pre- diction outfit to predict the upset. Gil- christ could not show his face for days; he was too occupied whipping the slaves in his dungeon. As for our interpretation of the elec- tion results, we say too bad, Tom — but you can always run again. By that time, Sugg will be old enough to vote for you, and his vote may well make the difference. 46 jbece+nben, Our close relationships with M.I.T. finally emitted some very favorable news. Lab exchange privileges were planned, so that textile studies could be furthered. The Engineering Society took a jaunt to M.I.T. to check things and also to notify Professor Schwarz of any recent changes in the textile picture. One of our well-known and oft-quoted profs came up with a sparkler. When asked about a certain constant in a for- mula, he said, Listen, youse mugs; we used it at Brown, we used it at M.I.T., and by God we ' re going to use it here. Ah, the mystery of education! But it ' s only a mystery to a few, so we ' ll try to bear up under the strain. The Text came out with a beautiful issue full of Fred MacMurray smoking some cigarettes (we can ' t mention it here as they didn ' t pay for the space) and complete with a list of the dry ski trails. It was truly a great issue (our annual dig).

Front Office one too many 49 orr A O A v IP tf ys • ■■ i  ; Student Q uesinment . . . . IN March of 1948, the dream of a func- tional Student Council at L.T.I. finally became a reality. As soon as the plans were sanctioned by the Admin- istration, elections were announced. Stu- dents interested in the numerous offices immediately formed campaign platforms, and a spirited contest began. Irwin Smoler, David Pfister, and Robert Sloan were elected President, Vice-President, and Treasurer, respectively. The campaign appearances of Lowell ' s own Glorious Georgia Kay aided the cause of Mr. Smoler in no small way. The Presidents past and present Back Row: Brown, Shippee, Riley, Rebenfeld, Hallett Second Row: McCartin, Lord, Merrill Front Row: Lemire, Sloan, Leitgeb 52 bemocsiaxxf, at IUoaJz Immediately upon completion of the election, the Council began work on a constitution. This task proved to be arduous and lengthy and was not com- pleted until the end of the term. The constitution was voted upon and ac- cepted by the students at the beginning of the 1948 school year. Dave Pfister, the vice-president, acting in place of Irv Smoler, who graduated in the spring, made the necessary plans for the elections to be held in the fall of 1948. Keen competition again was evinced as the candidates battled for the favored seats. Robert Sloan, Don Leitgeb, Gay Lemire, and Bert Mahoney proved to be the people ' s choice. This year ' s Council, besides doing the work of governing at L.T.I., has looked after the social aspects, with the staging of a co-operative dance with the heart- throbs of Lowell State Teachers. This dance, featuring a Thanksgiving motif, proved to be a startling success and will doubtless pave the way for other such gatherings. The Christmas Convocation, with Frank Reilly in charge of speeches, songs, and the efforts of the L.T.I. Dance Band will long be remembered as another feather in the caps of our Councilors. The vote Although still a comparatively new component of the Institute, the Student Council will continue in future years to bring about improvement for the students, both in conditions and curriculum. Much work remains to be done; but future councils, if as successful as the present organization, will readily cope with any problems which may present themselves.

The Business and Editorial Staffs of The Pickout have spared no effort to bring to the students of L.T.I, a well- integrated view of life at the Institute. With the Staff operating under the new constitution, work was begun on The Pickout soon after the summer vacation ended. Leon Bess, appointed Editor-in-Chief at the end of the last school year, and John M. King, appointed Business Manager at the same time, is- sued a call for volunteers to replace those lost through graduation. The tempo of activ ity increased as the deadline approached. Associate Edi- tors Arthur D. Levinson and Edward I. Stillman directed co-ordinating activities and special story assignments. Stories were written, edited, and rewritten under the direction of Assistant Editor Gerald G. Fruchtman and Literary Editor Bry- ant L. Carpenter. Photographic Editor Seymour Lash and his staff produced volumes of pictures from the new and fully-equipped darkroom. Art Editor Kit C. Patrick created Terry who saunters through the pages of The Pickout. Through the strenuous efforts of the Business Staff, and the special efforts of Leon Bess, Editor-in-Chief John M. King, Jr., Business Manager Russell M. Fox, Faculty Adviser Louis W. Stearns, Editorial Adviser Patrick Carpenter Lord Assistant Business Manager Thaddeus J. Bonczar and Circulation Manager Edwin L. Lord, Jr., the financial problems of producing the yearbook were solved. It has been the intention of the staff to produce a yearbook which will bring together events at L.T.I, for the past calendar year so that the over-all picture of the Institute may be seen and under- stood. It has also been the intention of the staff to provide a yearbook which, in future years, will provide many pleasant memories and reminiscences of under- graduate days. 55 7J4e etct — All the Aeiud, The Text, student newspaper of the Institute, can proudly look upon this year as one of its greatest. To the staff, headed by Editor Charles Whitehead, must go the credit for the bigger and bet- ter Text which made its way to the college newsstands on alternate Thursdays. Mr. John R. Robertson was elected faculty adviser at the beginning of the 1948 term and, with Professor James H. Kennedy, Jr., has always been ready to help members of the staff in matters of policy. One of the chief recommendations in the platform of The Text, that of an ade- quate student government, has become a reality. When the first Student Council at L.T.I, was elected, The Text featured the platforms of various potential candi- dates for the major offices. The paper attempts at all times to work with the Council and to give full publicity to the affairs of the Student Government. During the past year, The Text moved into a new office, a small dovecote on the fourth floor of Louis Pasteur Hall. Plans have been announced for a new and more spacious room in the proposed Library Building. From this new office, The Text will continue to bring to the student body all possible news of the Institute, of its environs, and of matters of general in- terest to the student body. CHARLES A.

The primary purpose of this aggregation is to furnish good music for campus functions as an en- couragement to more social life at the Institute. Under the capable leadership of Pro- fessor Henry Thomas, the band was started with Seymour Lash chosen as its director. Auditions were held, rehearsals scheduled, and the Tooters were ready to perform. The Band made its debut at the All-Textile Banquet and was ac- claimed a great success by all who heard it. In a short period of time, the Band was booked for the remainder of the social season, with the first real function being the joint LTI-LTC dance. The musicians outdid themselves for that engagement and gave the dancers an evening of dance - able rhythms that could not readily be equaled. The Tooters ' library is varied, ranging from waltzes to good, solid jive. The Band does an excellent job on the dreamy ballads as well as on scintillating rumbas. Students of Lowell Textile Institute should be proud of a combination that can produce the type of music delivered by this group. Although these musicians have little time for practice, future years will hear Lash ' s Tooters practicing into the early evening. As classes change, the individuals will come and go, but with the full support of both students and faculty members, the music of the Tooters will continue to brighten the social whirl. 58 Q lee Qluh After lying dormant for many years, the Glee Club reorganized last year under the guidance of Professor Russell M. Fox. From this small organization, came the nucleus of this year ' s choral group, with the very talented Seymour Lash being designated as its maestro. Singing came naturally to most of the fellows and classification was a simple procedure. Tone deaf aspirants and mono- tones were given letters of introduction to the Met., and the balance of the group proceeded with rehearsals. Plans were made for a Christmas recital and a reper- toire was immediately started. Reorches- tration of many pieces had to be done because a majority of the group contended that the first note of the first, sixth, and eighth bars was a dotted quarter, while the minority decided that the note should be held for eight beats. Lessons in reading music were quickly undertaken and once more the choral group got under way. The Glee Club made its debut at the annual Christmas Convocation. The men offered renditions of such Christmas carols as Hark, the Herald Angels Sing and Adeste Fidelis. They also provided the background while Hurt Blagman offered a beautiful solo rendition of Silent Night. The group was well received by all, and further plans are being made to entertain the students and faculty in the near future. At present, a completely new repertoire is being com- piled. This will include a large portion of Fred Waring arrangements since they are rated among the best for choral work. The group is continually working under a handicap. It seems that they can hardly see the music because of the smog caused by Bob Earl ' s pipe. In the future, the Glee (Hub hopes to see a more enthusiastic and active inter- est by the students in choral work. Prof. Fox will welcome most cordially any new face that will help to make the Glee Club a larger and better organization. Back Row: IVr-.li.

Indoor Sports Each year, the advent of the month of May finds the Textile Players stroll- ing once more over the boards of one of the local stages, with a new and novel performance of one of the theatrical greats. The year 1948, while showing no exception to this general pattern, was nevertheless a memorable one in that it marked the initial appearance of feminine talent with the Players. For many years, female leads were carried by otherwise rugged male members of the band. The co-eds of the Institute have become so numerous, however, that it was felt that due recognition should be accorded them in our annual production. The girls who participated and who did an excellent job were the following: Ruth Denio, Dot McCarron, Judy Brown, Peggy Peters, and Joan Gregg. The play presented by our talented thespians in this year of 1948 was the famed Male Animal, written by Elliot Nugent and James Thurher. The actors. led by Bill Segall and Dick Hallett, turned out one of the most commanding performances that the enthusiastic audi- ence beyond the footlights of the Cyrus W. Irish Auditorium had ever witnessed. The directing of the play, as effected by Mrs. True Hardy Boothby, required many tedious hours of coaching and re- Trie morning after 60 JUe Male A Umal, with Jllue tyemale i Back Row: Whittier, Cohen, McMahon, Rostler, Little, Hallelt, Segall, Kaufman Front Row: I ' eters, Gregg, Denio, McCarron, Brown vision. The final performance, however, with its smoothness and liveliness, must have well rewarded Mrs. Boothby for her time. The Players, reorganized in 1946 with Mr. Ernest P. James as Faculty Adviser and Mr. Isaac Chase as Treasurer, spend a minimum of time with operational pro- cedure and a maximum in rehearsal. As a result, our Players expect to be able to produce more and better theatricals in future years. A little more feeling. Hello, you all 61 GUinele Students Club China provides the largest component of the foreign student group at Tex- tile. The Chinese students have tended toward a feeling of fraternity and mutual attraction because of their collective problems in a country so far distant from their homeland and because of their devo- tion to the field of textiles. It was, per- haps, inevitable that this community of interest should find expression in the realm of extra-curricular activity. Ac- cordingly, in 1947, a group of these stu- dents got together for the avowed purpose of forming a Chinese student organiza- tion that would be officially recognized. Officers were elected, meetings were scheduled, and the Club was off to a flying start. The group, at present, consists of ten members. Whenever any special purpose arises, meetings are held under the direc- tion of Professor Dow; but for the most part, the students assemble in the lunch room over their after-dinner coffee. These gatherings usually serve as a medium for the exchange of ideas, particularly those pertaining to the best way to play a hand of American bridge. Many of the past members of this group have returned to their native land and have entered textile or allied trades there. These men have all been highly successful in their chosen fields and, because of their training in this country, particularly at L.T.I., have been able to advance greatly the textile industry of China. The Chinese Student Club, in making available to these students the compan- ionship and exchange of information which they otherwise might lack, helps these men greatly in their efforts at Lowell Textile Institute.

The 1948-1949 Circle found, within its ranks, forty students from eleven different countries of the world. The Circle is a miniature United Na- tions. The association of members with one another at meetings and the mutual understanding possible among students at school are beneficial both to the various Circle members and to their American associates. The cosmopolitan character of the stu- dent body at Textile offers a unique op- portunity, through representatives of the Circle, for the American public to know and to appreciate something of the cus- toms, manners, and views of eleven coun- tries. Members have been invited to speak before various civic groups in the vicinity of Lowell. The Christmas issue of The Text featured articles by various members on the celebration of Christmas in their homelands. Films concerning the cultures of some of the countries represented have been exhibited from time to time. All these activities have helped greatly in breaking down traditional international barriers. During the past year, the Circle has visited many textile mills, machinery manufacturers, and other allied indus- tries. These manufacturers have done everything possible to make these visits pleasant and educational. Under the capable guidance of Hon or- ary Chairman Professor James G. Dow, the International Students ' Circle has become an integral and necessary part of the Institute and is certain to be remem- bered by all who have come in contact with it. 63 a. a. i. e. e.

The activities of the members here at Textile have earned much approval from the national governing body of the Associa- tion. The scope of the activities of the stu- dent chapter is very wide. Technical films are shown and visits to textile manu- facturing plants are arranged. A series of lecture-type seminars is held each year to present outstanding leaders of the textile industry to the student body. This year ' s speakers included: Professor John H. McDonald of L.T.I., Mr. Harold Ander- son of Abbott Worsted Company, and Dr. H. H. Webber of the Department of Agriculture. The messages brought by these speakers have proved to be highly educational, and the interest aroused among the student body and in industry has been most encouraging. The most successful function of the Association was the joint meeting with the Northern New England Chapter, held at Textile last spring. A well-received feature of the meeting was the open- forum discussion conducted by student members of the chapter and engaged in by many of those present. The general acclamation accorded this gathering has encouraged the student chapter to formu- late plans for another joint meeting to be held in April of 1949. The L.T.I, chapter of the Association, under the general chairmanship of Law- rence Gardner, who is ably assisted by Genial George Kenniston, looks for- ward to additional laurels in future years and, with the continued support of the student body, may become the strongest group of the entire national assembly. 64 nainee Un f, Society Back Row: Schwarz, Earls, Paul, Cushman, Priestley, Monaco, Lesser, Levenson Fifth Row: R.

The Society was formed with the pur- pose of making available to its members, all knowledge and advantages that fall within its scope. With this in mind, the Society formulated its aims as follows: to further the interest and education of the engineering students at Lowell Textile Institute, to develop a proper perspective of engineering work in general, and to afford the opportunity for the engineering students to strengthen school spirit and to promote good fellowship by encourag- ing informal exchange of ideas. The Society meets twice a month at which time, after its business is com- pleted, its members are treated to either an informative film or a talk by some speaker eminent in the field of engineer- ing. Frequent trips to various educational and industrial institutions are made. In prewar years, the Society was a student chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. At the present time, the possibility of affiliation with a national group is being considered. Membership is now restricted to upper- classmen who are taking one of the engineering courses, but any student at the Institute is welcome to attend any of the functions of the Society. Thus an- other important objective of the society, to maintain a close and harmonious rela- tionship with the student chapter of the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists, is accomplished. If the future years bring as much to the Society as the past year has done, the group can- not help but accomplish its high aims; and it will undoubtedly become an in- tegral part of the engineering education of the undergraduate at Lowell Textile Institute. 65 Piokaut feaabd Back Row: Chase, Schwartz, Gunther, Gardner, Peterson Front Row: Bess, Prof. Fox, King The Pickout Board, established when the administration introduced the publication fee, has been in operation now for two scholastic years. The Board acts as an advisory body to the staff of The Pickout. The Pickout Board, assisting The Pickout staff, whenever called upon to do so, also has the major assignment of awarding Pickout Keys for meritorious service to members of the staff at the end of each school year. Thirteen of these keys were approved for work done on the 1948 Pickout with one each being given to Professor Russell M. Fox and to Mr. Louis Stearns for their work as Faculty advisors to The Pickout. During the past school year, the Board has made several important decisions. One of the most important of these was the establishment of a rating system for the awarding of the coveted Pickout Keys. This is a point system based on an evaluation of the efforts put into the year- book by the members of the staff. The ac- cumulated points are to be incorporated in the minutes of the final board meeting in order that they may be available for the use of those editors who may need them in future years. This year, the members of the Board had the privilege of having the dummy of the yearbook explained to them in detail by the editor before press deadline. This innovation was greatly appreciated by the Board members, and the dummy was unanimously accepted. Board members consist of the editor and the business manager of the yearbook, a representative from each of the four classes, one co-ed, and a member of the Interfraternity Council. 66 9 +tteijj iate L+iitif, Council A strong correlating and co-ordinat- ing group in the realm of extra- curricular activity is the Intel-fraternity Council, composed of representatives from each fraternity. The object of this organization, to quote from its con- stitution, is to promote inter-fraternal harmony, to standardize fraternity prac- tices, to encourage co-operation in better- ing conditions at the Institute, and to aid in creating a school spirit through good fellowship. Numerous fraternity activities are car- ried on under the direction of the Inter- Fraternity Council. Athletic programs include bowling, basketball, and softball. At the completion of the season, a trophy in each sport is awarded to the winning fraternity team. Various social events are conducted by each organization, not the least of which are the numerous stag affairs which are designed to create and maintain the spirit of brotherhood among the various members. One of the brain-children of the Council was the successful initiation of simultane- ous rushing and pledging periods among the fraternities. Rushing and pledging are supervised by the Council, and hell week, that period of terror to the pledgee and of joy to the old guard, is kept within the bounds of reason. The Council consists of sixteen mem- bers, four from each of the fraternities. These representatives elect a chairman, a vice-chairman, a secretary, and a treas- urer, who serve for a one-year term. At the end of that time, elections determine the guiding crew for another year. This year, more than ever before, the Interfraternity Council has attempted to form greater fellowship, harmony, and good will among our fraternities, the school, and the student body. Future years will find the fraternities of our ex- panding Institute the most integrated portion of the entire student body. Back Row: Feltheimer.

Mer- rill, reaches its age of maturity this year as it celebrates its twenty-first birthday. The honor society of Lowell Textile In- stitute was founded in 1927 and has grown from two charter members to the present-day total of 250 members. Students who maintain the high aca- demic standard of a cumulative point average of 4.00 or more for three consecu- tive years and who have no failures, be- come eligible for membership in this so- ciety and may thereafter wear the key which bears the Tau Epsilon Sigma in- signia. Because of the rapid expansion of L.T.I., the method of cumulative rating referred to above is to be changed. The new basis for admission to the society will be a credit-hour rating system, which will gradually replace the older method. The operational details of this system have already been worked out. Admission to this society is, indeed, a fitting reward to each member for the hard work and sustained effort required in the three years prior to the attainment of the goal. Each member is to be con- gratulated for his or her determination and ability to present a record of com- mendable work. Although greatly increased in size since its beginning, the present-day Tau Epsilon Sigma has, by no means, reached a height from which no further progress is possible. As the group becomes larger and as its present members press on to further successes, we can all join in the toast: Success to the future leaders of industry. as J lucleul Back Row: Leitgeb, Segall, Whitehead, Smaha, Sloan Second Row: Lent, Morrison, Rebenfeld, Charatz Front Row: McMahon, Kenniston, Gardner, Shires, Pierant A comparatively new organization at L.T.I, is the Nucleus, founded in the fall of 1947 by a group of students who felt that information and experience gained from personal research and from summer employment could be profitably shared. Meetings, featuring a dinner at a local restaurant, furnish a location for the presentation of a paper by one of the members. The speaker at each gathering also serves as chairman. This system gives experience in conducting business meet- ings and seminar programs. A constitution was written during the latter part of the 1947-1948 school year, and the name ' Nucleus was adopted at that time. Several meetings had been held before these steps were taken, and the participating members felt it best to limit membership to fifteen. Since eight meet- ings are held each school year, each mem- ber has an opportunity to present a paper during either his Junior or Senior year. In order that the Nucleus may continue to exist, each Senior member, during his last term at school, introduces a new member from the incoming Junior or Senior class to replace him in the ensuing year. To be considered for membership, a candidate must have a high scholastic standing, a desire to participate actively in the affairs of the Nucleus, and a record of active participation in sports, organiza- tions, fraternities, summer employment, or other extra-curricular activities. When unanimous approval by the members has been given, the candidate is invited to join the Nucleus. An effort is made to maintain a balance between chemists and engineers so that members of each group may better understand the functions and problems of the other. Faculty members have been invited to meetings and have contributed a great deal to the success of the organization. The future success of the Nucleus seems assured and the companionship and bene- fits gained from the organization will serve its members in good stead in their future occupations. 69 RijfU GUL The Rifle Club was reorganized in 1947 under the guidance of Professor Jacob K. Frederick, faculty adviser and coach. The organization, which has advanced rapidly, now has a charter from the Na- tional Rifle Association and is recognized as a senior college club for purposes of inter-collegiate shooting matches. The Club held postal matches this year with such schools as Clarkson of New York and Worcester Polytech of Worcester, Massachusetts. A postal match was also held with a non-collegiate group the Lud- low Sport and Pistol Club of Ludlow, Vermont. The greatest need of the rifle club, at present, is a permanent range to which all members may have access at any time in order to obtain the ever-necessary practice. Professor Frederick, with the cooperation of the administration, is negotiating for the use of the lower floor of one of the mills ju st across the Textile Memorial Bridge. Present indications are that the deal will be completed and that the range will be in the hands of the Club this year. Besides the inter-collegiate matches, the members of the Club have the oppor- tunity to compete, not only in the Annual Aggregate Match, but also in the shooting for the Founders Trophy and for the Faculty Trophy. In each of these intra- club events, the three highest ranking men receive medals.

This year has become noteworthy in Textile history as the year of the or- ganization of a cheering squad to lend moral support to our athletic gladiators, and to bring color to our contests. Although there have been sporadic attempts in the past to establish this activity, this time there appears to be a definite promise of permanence. The group was organized on very short notice, and all members deserve much credit for their enthusiastic co-operation on the many tasks of organization. The idea was conceived at an early meeting of the Student Council, just three days before the first football game of the season against New England College on Friday, September 25, at Lowell. At the behest of Council President Bob Sloan, Dick Meltzer undertook the formation of a cheering squad in the two days that remained. In spite of the short notice given, the response was very good. Among those who turned out were a few freshmen who had had previous cheer- leading experience in high school; and in the brief period of time available, a few- basic cheering routines were mastered. The cheering at the first game was enthusiastic, and although it was a trifle unco-ordinated after oidy one practice session, it has improved at each game until it has become first-class. For the basketball season, with twenty- three games scheduled, a rotation plan was worked out so that there would be four cheerleaders at each game. This proved to be adequate for the confines of our gym. It is hoped that the fine start made this year will be perpetuated and that student support will become increasingly stronger each year. More complete co- ordination with the athletic powers-that- be is also sought; and perhaps the time will come when cheerleaders will accom- pany our teams on all out-of-town games, as well as those played at home.

Using the Greek letters Phi Sigma Rho as their newly adopted name, the members of the only sorority at L.T.I, continued where the Phlaine Sorority left off. There were many things to he done, but it did not take long to get the ball rolling. The social calendar was initiated by the annual Hallowe ' en Party on October 28 at the Y camp at Long-Sought-For- Pond in Westford, Massachusetts. Though some departed in tears (what else could they do after someone turned off the draft to the fire-place), all agreed the next morning that a grand start for a busy year had been made. Among the activities that followed were the rush party for the freshmen in November, the informal ini- tiation of five ready and willing (?) pro- spective members, the dinner-dance in honor of those who passed the test and came through victorious, and the formal initiation in the spring of 1949. Throughout 1948, the co-eds were busy getting into the activities at L.T.I. Our sweater gals cheered the teams on, win or lose. There was a feminine voice in Free Shines government organizations of school and class. The girls were also active in promot- ing our publications, conducting inter- views, writing reports, and rushing to make deadlines. They worked with the various clubs and took an outstanding part in the Textile Players. (How did the girls ever manage to do any studying?) Phi Sigma R.ho became a valuable part of co-ed life at L.T.I. We hope that it will always call to mind memories of happy associations of a college career. a-he-in ' and a-she-in ' Wolf Bait 73 AlfiUa pA,ilo4i, PI CHAPTER Established at Textile in 1941 Founded at New York University in 1921 Manuel Affler Gerardo R.

To the brothers in the fraternity, the event meant social prominence and also a new record for pledgees inducted. Twenty-eight pledgees weVe introduced to one of the most wonderful relationships of mankind, the relationship of fraternal brotherhood and all that it means. After the very eventful alumni week- end, the next event on the fraternity ' s social calendar was the Annual Stag Ban- quet. The success of the affair was evinced by the fact that those present included the active brothers, several of the L.T.I. faculty, and alumni dating back to the year when the L.T.I, chapter of this fra- ternity was founded. This affair is a mile- stone long to be remembered even though the Bromo-Seltzer arrived by the carload the next morning. 1948 also saw Alpha Epsilon doing very well with its athletic undertakings. Being- undefeated and earning the coveted championship in inter-fraternity competi- tion, A. E. enjoyed a very successful bas- ketball season. A. E. was also tied for first place in the Softball competition when the playoffs were cancelled because of exams. In May of ' 48, A. E. held its annual election and Ed Stillman was chosen to keep the brothers in line for the next year. After the summer vacation, the old cycle started once more. Smokers tended to introduce the greenies with the beanies to the upperclassmen and to give them a taste of collegiate social life. This year ' s pledging will take place during the second semester so that the pledgees will have all summer to recuperate. In retrospect, it may be generally conceded that A. E. has had a bright and prosperous year, with many more in the offing.

The Dekes started activities shortly after the great Battle of Registration had been won. The first reunion of the school year was held at a dinner, which had all the aspects of a Thanksgiving feast. After devouring the succulent fowl, the mem- bers returned to earth and to a business meeting, at which a very active social calendar was planned. In accordance with the policy of the past two years, the ball was set rolling by the staging of the first social event of the school year, a very successful dance, held at the K. of C. hall. The brother Dekes then launched upon a very active and exciting rushing period. After many rush parties, the Dekes settled down to the task of selecting the rushees to whom bids would be sent. This was not an easy assignment because of the high caliber of the prospective brother Dekes. About twenty-five bid cards were returned with the signatures of the new pledges. The fraternity Hell Week, a very lively and nippy affair (not referring to climatic conditions), was held during the last week of January. Following Hell ' The Dekes Week, the Annual Third Degree Banquet took place whereupon the new pledges earned the right to be called brothers. With the return to full strength thus accomplished, Delta Kappa looked to the maintenance of its tradition of participa- tion in all school activities. At the present time, its membership includes honor stu- dents, class officers, Pickout and Text staff members, and athletes.

To keep the renovat- ing trend alive, the social committee staged a Poverty Party, for which it was necessary to peel off conspicuous strips of wall paper to lend a touch of atmosphere. Following up this event with a meeting of the alumni was a stroke of genius, result- ing in their arranging for the complete redecoration of the first floor and main hallway. To start the year off in an expansive vein, O Pi formally initiated faculty members Armstrong, Bell, Frederick, Harris, R. Kennedy, and Robertson as honorary members. It is gratifying to note that they have become very active fraters. As was to be expected, the house was the scene of numerous social events and work parties — alas. This year, the changes in the house and in the fraternity have resulted in more than just a face-lifting and a swelling of ranks. Thirty-one Waverly Avenue has passed from the mediocrity of a house to the distinction of a home. Omicron Pi is once again a fra- ternity in every sense of the word, both in tangible and intangible details. Through its development, it has in turn developed the initiative and resourcefulness of each of its members, who have contributed their time and energy to make it grow.

And then Bacchus presided while merrymaking prevailed. Greetings and salutations were exchanged as were sagas of achievement and conquest, of journeys made to distant lands, and of new-found wisdom acquired in textile fields during thesummer months. Mighty were the tales told by the men of the brotherhood of Phi Psi! These historical events came to pass in the second week of September, A.D. 1948. The first formal meeting of the season was attended with a spirit of reorganiza- tion and of eagerness for renovation of the fraternity house. Plans were laid down for the season, and committees were appointed for the fulfillment of these plans. Prominent in the social calendar this year were the week-end open house affairs. With the advent of the rushing period, a Hallowe ' en party, two smokers, and the annual Monte Carlo party were held for the entertainment of prospective pledges. Phi Psi was honored at one of the smokers by the presence of brother Coach Morey who gave an impromptu but enter- taining talk on the life of a football coach with particular emphasis on the pathos of all concerned just before that big game. Harold Hart, the executive secretary of the Grand Council, made Gamma Chapter the first stop in his annual pil- grimage to the nine active, and the ten alumni chapters throughout the country. Reminiscing on events that occurred in the early part of 1948 brings to mind the fun and misery of Hell Week, the winning of the inter-fraternity bowling trophy, the tying for first place in the softball league, that memorable fraternity formal, and the annual fraternity convention in New- Bedford with Beta Chapter as host. card sharks Slave labor 81 X Ba eacUl When the roaring din of another base- ball season had subsided to a mur- mur, when the last uniform had been checked in and stored away, and when the score book had been brought up-to-date, Textile ' s record for the 1948 campaign was eight games won and nine lost. Those who followed the progress of the team faithfully, realize that the record alone does not give a true account of what actually occurred on the diamond during those spring afternoons. For the most part, the team was made up of an equal number of returning vet- erans and new, untried rookies. The for- mer were memb ers who had played for the last three years. As has been true every year, many gaps were left that had to be filled. On the whole, the rookies came through, although the team did not really hit its stride until the second half of the season. This fact is readily borne out by the record of five wins in the last seven games. In fact, at one point during the season, the team was so impressive that an un- precedented event in the history of Tex- tile journalism almost occurred. It seems that, during a more pessimistic moment, Chuck Whitehead, the Sports Editor of The Text, had promised Coach Yarnall that he would print a special edition of The Text devoted strictly to the exploits of the baseball team should they win four games consecutively. One can well imagine Chuck ' s dilemma on May 14 when the scalps of Becker, New England College, and Assumption were already collected and by the most decisive of margins. At this point, the General Staff 84 team was averaging 13 runs per game! The next game was scheduled with Keene who had always been a soft touch for Textile. However, New England ' s un- predictable weather saved the day — for our Sports Editor, that is. Yes, it poured and our game with Keene was postponed for a future date, at which time, inci- dentally, we were victorious. A tough and powerful Tufts aggregate snapped the team ' s winning streak at three games. This season saw its share of close and exciting ball games intermingled with a few run-away affairs. By far, the most exciting and enjoyable game of all, from a spectator ' s point of view, was the Suffolk game played at Textile Field on April 27. This fiasco proved to be everything that a baseball game should not be. The teams played slovenly, errors were made at crucial moments, the umpires were con- Watch the garment Yourrr oout Chipper 85 W , i « Back Row: Mgr.

Mathieu, Mendrala, Prof. Cushing tinuously harangued, and before the con- test was over, both teams had swarmed out on the field during a hotly contested decision. Only by some miracle was a brawl averted. The Terriers emerged a 7 to 4 victor and all observers of the ball game were treated to the type of sporting- event that those from Brooklyn have been privileged to see under Leo Durocher ' s fiery leadership. Tensely fought and much better played games were those at the start of the season with Devens and Amherst. These were close pitchers ' battles in which the batters were throttled for most of the game. A comparison of scores shows the rise and fall in the caliber of the playing of the team during the season. The opening game was lost to Devens by a score of 3 to 2, whereas a return game near the close of the season saw Textile taking the hon- ors 8 to 7. In a slugfest against Assump- tion, L.T.I, handily won 15 to 2 at Lowell, but lost at Assumption 10 to 7. The over-all picture of last year ' s team showed that it had acquitted itself well. Next year, Rusty Yarnall will once more have to rebuild his team almost from scratch. He will have only a small Pepper Game m i i 86 nucleus of players returning since gradua- tion and the draft have depleted our stock i94 Schedule once again. It is encouraging to know that the pitching staff of Milt Charatz and Ed Mendrala will still he intact for another season. Of course, it was inevitable that sooner or later Jim O ' Donnell and John Scotty McKniff would leave and they will be sorely missed as will Bob Mathieu and Gene Barreto. However, Paul Angelo, Roger Murphy, Bill Piekarski, Joe Du- charme, and Phil Sugg are still with us; and with any kind of contribution from the freshmen, Textile can look forward to another successful season from its baseball heroes under the able guidance of Captain Milt Charatz.

As the last of the winter ' s snows dis- appeared, a clarion call was issued for candidates for the golf team. After the dust had subsided, the team manager, Nat Glade, had eighteen hopefuls eyeing the ten openings on the squad. Disap- pointment for those shooting from 95 to 155 followed, for the ten successful aspir- ants claimed scores ranging from the upper 70 ' s to the low 90 ' s. Those not chosen for the team were offered the opportunity to caddy for the wearers of the Red and Black. The Vesper Country Club, in Tyngs- boro, with its convenient 19th hole and its one-armed bandits, offered a beau- tiful 18-hole course for practicing and also for home matches. In comparison to the two-match schedule of the previous season, the team manager was able to arrange for six matches to keep the boys on the ball — golf ball, that is. The contests which were of particular interest to Textilites were those with Fort Devens and with Worcester Acad- emy. Against a heavily favored Fort Devens team, which rolled on to place third in the New England standings, the Terriers took 3 of the 9 points. Danny Robson and John Hayes accounted for Second Row: Robson, Hayes, Siru .ik. Whitehead Front Row: J. Evans, Kelly, W. Evans 88 those three points with golf rivalling the efforts of big-time professionals. John Huckabuck Dulken scattered the pre- ceding foursomes several times with his drives, but the other team still won. As the season rolled on, a subtle form of chicanery was attempted on A.I.C. when they came to Lowell for a match at Vesper. The visitors were tendered a dinner and overnight accommodations at the Omicron Pi house. The impromptu stag party which followed the dinner went for naught since A.I.C. took 8 of the 9 points home with them. At the Juniper Hill course in North- boro, Textile easily won the match with Worcester Academy, the final score being 63 2 to 234. In a driving rainstorm, Parker Sneaks Barnes and Dick King captured 23 2 points between them as did John Hucky Dulken and Frank Stru- zik. The remaining l} £ points were latched onto by John Red Evans and Chuck Whitehead. This year should be a banner year for the Red and Black on the links since Parker Barnes, the low man on the golf totem pole, and Bob Dinan were the only members to don cap and gown at gradua- tion. The remainder of the divot-diggers and their caddies will be on hand this spring to battle the freshmen for places on the Terrier golf team. 1948 ScUeJUde L.T.I.

Jungle Warfare 89 tf-aotball 9 Into mothballs, once again, go the Red and Black jerseys and helmets; but into our memory books go the scenes and events that brought mingled emotions of hopefulness and hopelessness, joy and sadness. The 1948 season was not a mo- mentous one when scores are taken into consideration; but from the standpoint of innovations, this year was second to none. For the first time, a Textile team was led, not by a four-letter man, but by a four-name man, Captain Evangelos Deme- trius Demosthenes Stavrakos. Always a great team man, Lucky seemed to get the most out of his team-mates by threat- ening to sing Und Beef Stew right on the field of play. In direct defiance of the repeal of Day- light Saving Time, our effervescent Di- rector of Athletics, Lester Howard Cush- ing, caused the installation of floodlights upon the roof of Kitson Hall. When the shadows started to have shadows, the lights were turned on enabling Rusty Yarnall to view the successful efforts of such stalwarts as Ramsbottom, Murphy, Rosenkrantz, and Canova in their quests for starting positions in the backfield. A Big YEAH TEAM The Angel I 90 By the time the 60th minute of the first game had rolled around, most of the student body of Textile had seen the in- troduction of several unprecedented addi- tions to the record book. Aided and abetted by two he-Terriers, six of the co-eds were unveiled in the roles of cheer- leaders. These beauties must have in- stilled the will to win in our team; for win we did over New England College, 7 to 0. The score occurred on a Dana Ramsbottom to Paul Golden Gloves Johnson pass after about three minutes had elapsed in the first quarter. For posterity and for the purpose of As Thousands Cheer allowing the coaching staff and team to view any errors in the execution of plays, Georgie Spicer photographed the entire game and all of those that followed. The motion picture camera used was obtained through the efforts of numerous groups and individuals. The thing which clinched this as one of the season ' s most memorable games was the display put on by the freshmen at half time. An ancient spinning wheel was borrowed from The Pickout Office Mu- seum. Filing solemnly onto the field, the frosh formed a circle about the wheel; and then, upon bended knees, they made plain their devotion to the symbol of the science which would occupy their thoughts for the next few years. The big green and silver clad team of Bergen Junior College, which rolled on to an undefeated season, jolted our pride to the tune of 41 to in a game that threat- ened, for a while, to fill all of the empty beds in nearby hospitals. The student turnout for the first two games was terrific, but the gathering of fans huddled on the stands on the night when St. Michael ' s took home a 12 to game in a driving rain storm really touched Professor Cushing ' s heart. The big event for the trip-loving mem- bers of the team was the jaunt down to the Big City. Chasing all wandering musicians out of Lewisohn Stadium in Manhattan, C.C.N.Y. also chased Textile to the tune 91 Back Row: Rottenberg, Canova, Levinson, Pooley, Johnson, Ramsbottom, Lawson, McKniff, Huff Second Row: Merrill, Rosenkrantz, Guidotti, Platnick, Milgram, Grady, O ' Donnell, Limberg, Roberts, O ' Brien Front Row: Lewis, Coffin, Pantell, Brunelle, Capt. Stavrakas, Kaufman, Murphy, Terris, Rudolph of 13 to 0. Undampened by their failure to break into the win column again, the boys went out on a 24-hour pass to see the sights of New York. Big Al Canova and Roger Murphy were startled into wide- open pockets by the amount of money it took to buy their way out of a New York nightclub. Perhaps the bringing of Dave Morey and his T formation to L.T.I, was one of the most surprising and most welcome events of the campaign. The squad took to this style of play very readily, and from then on, although victories were not achieved, the scores showed the steady improvement of the team. On the night before the Clarkson Col- lege game in Potsdam, New York, the Terriers took a liking to a waitress in the inn at which they were staying and kept her there dancing until the coaches rustled the boys off to bed. With the gridsters safely tucked in bed, guess who escorted the cutie home. Working from the T formation the next day, the wearers of the Red and Black were taken by a 38 to score. A captain without a team was Lucky Stavrakos when he was ejected from the rough game with Devens. The bright side of losing, 19 to 0, was the progressive development of the T formation. This improvement was more pronounced the next week when L.T.I, played excellent ball although losing to A.I.C., 7 to 6. The final game of the season showed the Terriers in their classiest game of the Hitting the road campaign. The line played sensationally, with Lucky , Ira Pantell, and Cy Mil- grim each playing (50 minutes and with Larry Coffin and Paul Johnson playing just a few minutes less. Our two quarter- backs Skippy Mckniff and Lenny Plat- nick went into the game with genuine crib notes. These were small patches of paper which contained a listing of plays readily accessible for immediate use and which were affixed to their pantlegs with adhesive tape. Tom Huff and Irwin Volin will cross the stage to receive their sheepskins this June, but with these exceptions, the entire squad will be back again next fall. With such strength of players, with a fighting captain such as Lucky Stavrakos, and with such an inspiring coach as Dave Morey, how can next season ' s team lose a game?

Other records that stood excellent chances of being surpassed were student attendance and enthusiasm at the home games. Dave Pfister, in his third year of varsity competition, was captain of this year ' s team. The first half of the season saw Dave cavorting at the center position, with Don Leitgeb, high scorer at press- time, and Irwin Needle, recently returned from the army, flanking him in the for- ward spots. Jack Godet and Sid Rudes, at the guard positions, kept the scoring by the opposition at a minimum. When Coach Dave Morey was faced with a dire lack of guards upon the loss of Godet, Leitgeb ably took over the vacant spot. Pfister was then made into a forward and Al Lyons, a demon under the backboards, started at center. This combination was equally effective as the scores from then on indicated. The exceptional playing of the first team was almost equalled by the stellar performances of their reliefs. Doug Grady gave a wonderful imitation of St. Vitus ' Dance when he was very capably guard- ing the L.T.I, baskets. Those three tall men, Mike Besso, Joe Morris, and Abbie Smoler, almost had to bend downward in order to shoot a basket, in sharp contrast to the plight of little Don Aldrich who practically had to use a stepladder in order to contribute to the scoring. Whether the last-period rallies on the part of the team provided the necessary stimulant for the enthusiastic cheering by the home crowd or whether the cheer- ing prodded the Terriers to victory was difficult to determine. The Becker game was an excellent example of this situa tion. At the beginning of the fourth period, Textile was trailing by eleven points. With Al Lyons taking practically every shot that Becker missed from the back- boards, and with the brilliant ball-hand- Look See? 94 ling of Leitgeb and Rudes, Textile was able to tie the score. Everyone except the L.T.I, players thought that the comeback was for naught when Becker got another basket, but a foul shot that passed through the hoop and a beautiful backhand goal by Sid Rudes with less than forty seconds to play was enough to pull the game into our win column. Games such as that with Becker oc- curred, not once, but four times in the first nine contests. Worthy of note is the fact that Textile won all of those first nine games which were played on home ground. On the road, however, the re- D for Dave Who fired that shot? 95 get oft my back suits were not as good with three losses in four times away. A new ruling which was made this year and which at times proved to be amusing was the requirement for a player to raise his hand after he had committed a foul. At first, the spectators believed that the player doing so wished to be excused from the floor for a moment. However, Don Leitgeb and Coach Morey used it as an excuse to wave to each other. Before the start of every game, the coach took the entire squad behind the stands and instilled the will-to-win with a two-minute pep talk. It was evident that those minutes were well spent be- cause the Terriers showed their dogged refusal to come out on the short end of the scores. The entire varsity squad will be on hand again next season. This year ' s jay- vee team, which won twice as many games as it lost, has several varsity pros- pects and it is possible to envision a top- flight season next year.

Grady, Treasurer the same old GRIND ON t he eighth day of September 1948, a record-breaking freshman class of one hundred and sixty-eight men passed through the arched portals of L.T.I, and began a three-day orientation in the mores of Textile. This briefing included introductions to the President and mem- bers of his staff, brief resumes of the vari- ous courses by the respective department heads, and presentation of the traditional red and black freshman skull caps and bibles. After a reprieve of one week, during which the embryonic Textile men and women supposedly became acquainted with their schedules, the Sophomores introduced the hazing period. The high- light of this was a demonstration of freshman inferiority begun at the dormi- tory by the rallying of the unfortunate frosh and concluded at Kearny Square with the serenading of the even more unfortunate citizens of Lowell. Field Day arrived eventually and with it, revenge. Although neither class won the main event, the football game, the Freshmen managed to accumulate eight points in track and other contests, thus attaining a two-point victory over the Sophs. With hazing terminated as a result of this triumph, the Freshmen found time to indulge in the pleasanter diversions at Textile. The most unforgettable of these was the All-Textile Banquet. The music of the Textile dance band, on exhibition for the first time, and the wit of M.C. John Robertson combined to produce an atmosphere encouraging to fraternity among students and between students and faculty. The evening greatly strength- ened a resurging school spirit. Only one thing remained to be done to complete the introduction of the new class, and that was accomplished through the combined efforts of Dean Williams and the dean of Lowell State Teachers College. A couples dance was arranged to be held in the L.T.I, auditorium, and a date bureau was organized to facilitate 102 introductions between students of the two institutions. Members of the class who had not formerly had the opportuni- ty became acquainted with some of Lowell ' s more attractive features. Fraternity rushing started in earnest and life became a series of stag parties and socials. Fortunately, Hell Week, that misnamed period of college life which engenders so many reminiscent stories in postgraduate years, arrived to terminate festivities. Freshman elections, held in the midst of these other activities, proved to be unexpectedly hard-fought contests. Color- ful campaigns staged by two major factions included a mass rally at the dormitory on election eve. In the light of a huge bonfire and accompanied by gun salutes from the roof of the building, each candidate extolled his virtues and promised great things. The results were satisfying to everyone. Two candidates from each faction w r ere elected. It should not be inferred that a Fresh- man ' s time is devoted entirely to the pursuit of happiness and girls. The scho- lastic requirements are high, as is attested to by the recent acceptance of L.T.I. into the Association of New England Wittle Weavers Colleges; and every student strives to meet them. The class is confident of its ability to place several men on the Dean ' s List and to maintain the standards set by previous classes.

Reilly, President Arthur P. Miller, iee-President Paul Girouartl, Secretary Robert A. Fitzgerald, Treasurer This year, the Class of ' 51, sophisti- cated by two terms at Textile and firmly established in school activities, slipped easily into its proper place and resumed the pursuit of knowledge. With admirable discretion, however, most of the members set aside some time for the fulfillment of social and moral obliga- tions. The latter, of course, consisted mainly of assisting the Freshmen in their adjustment to college life. In this, the Sophomores were only comparatively successful ; for although they were benevo- lently lenient in regard to the wearing of the caps and the observance of restric- tions, the unappreciative Frosh capi- talized on their youth and stole an 8 to 6 Field Day victory. Socially, the class was more fortunate. The two main events, the All-Textile Banquet and the L.T.I.-L.T.C. Dance, were memorable occasions. A fine roster of speakers, a plentiful supply of turkey at the banquet, and the syncopated rhythms of the Textile Dance Band at the dance, made both occasions thor- oughly enjoyable. The fraternal organizations offered their own diversions from the scholastic one up, two down Qz-. 0000001 A 106 grind. Hush season, stag parties, and dances received maximum a I tendance by those Sophs who were brothers and by those who hoped to become pledgees. Hell Week ' which climaxed these gath- erings was indescribable. The class election, which began in- auspiciously, developed into a major political contest. The candidates an- nounced their platforms with varying degrees of promises. The corridors were decorated with a great many campaign posters proclaiming the qualifications of the candidates. The effectiveness of the various appeals for support was deter- mined at the polls by the election of our present officers. In the field of athletics, the Sopho- mores were particularly active this year. As though trying to efface their ig- nominious defeat on Field Day, the sophomore varsity men outdid themselves. Capably assisted by members of the other classes, they compiled more vic- tories for the Institute than it has had in many years. Through all these activities and asso- ciations, and through its educational pursuits, the Class of ' 51 has developed Buzz-z-z-z in two years a quality of spirit unsur- passed by any group at Textile. Fully realizing that classes come and go and are soon forgotten, the Class of ' 51 is dedicating its activities and spirit to the enrichment of the tradition and the repu- tation of the school. wide awake in class 107 Back Row: Angelo, Andrews, Hacker, Besso, Carter, Hekker, Canova, Chadwick.

Members of this class took part in all school activities, both scho- lastic and athletic. Several of the mem- bers of this class were outstanding per- formers with the Textile teams in foot- ball, basketball, and baseball. The frater- nities and Textile ' s one sorority are well filled with Juniors.

Two years ago, when the body of stu- dents first arrived, they were the usual bewildered Frosh, confused and lost amid strange surroundings. As the years passed, this group of individuals became, perhaps, more organized and co-ordinated than any other class in the history of L.T.I. Several of the members of the class of 1950 have qualified for scholarships. Bob Sloane was granted the Owens-Corning tribute. John Petersen, another member of the class who is active in extra-cur- ricular work, especially for The Text and The Pickout, happily clutches the golden egg of the Chicopee Company. The Student Council, actively backed in its embryonic form by various individ- uals from this group now has its four highest offices filled entirely by people from the Junior class. Bob Sloane was elected President, with Don Leitgeb, Gay Lemire, and Herb Mahoney filling in as Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer respectively. The class elections, held soon after the beginning of the school year, were notable for the interest aroused. Prelimi- nary campaigning resulted in the appear- ance of posters in all corners of the school with both single candidates and party tickets competing. Election day brought votes from nearly every member of the class and when the final results were tabulated, it was found that Luddy Rebenfeld had been placed in the driver ' s seat, with Al West as secretary. The closeness of the results of balloting for Vice-President and Treasurer necessi- tated a second trip to the polls for run- offs for these offices. Petersen, Cummings, and Laureti vied again for Vice-President, with Cummings being chosen. Lebowitz and Dotty McCarron tilted for Treasurer, with li ' l Dotty winning the honor of counting the ducats for the next year. President Rebenfeld immediately began work on one of his pet schemes, that of forming a cabinet composed of a member from each section. He felt that many of the policies of the class and the results of official meetings were not circulating as they should among the students and reasoned that cabinet members from each section would be able to extend his Make mine moonshine 110 Eager Weavers Dye-pot dilemma • m contacts. This cabinet, while still in the embryonic stage, is rapidly becoming an actuality and may prove to be another first for this group and a pattern for all succeeding organizations. Although the Class of 1950 has not held any social functions this year, several events are scheduled for the spring months. These events, should they prove as suc- cessful as have past functions, will be long remembered by all who participate. The Class of 1950 looks forward to the prospect of being Seniors and to eventual graduation. Without doubt, this group will aid the forward movement of Textile immeasurably, and as alumni, will carry the good name of the Institute through- out the world. How does it work? Side order of spades f ? ' j ■ J p % 1 111 Eureka! We found it! Schizophrenia was the diagnosis of the American Society of Psychiatrists at their convention late in 1946 upon hear- ing the symptoms of the Class of ' 49 at Lowell Textile Institute. The Class of ' 49, the first postwar class, started in a normal manner in Sep- tember of 1945. The class was a mixture of recent high-school graduates, former L.T.I, men returning from the armed forces, and other veterans not previously enrolled here. In January, it happened. Another freshman class loomed upon the scene. A split personality! This group, composed entirely of veterans, gave TEXTILE INDUSTRV Class Officers John A. McCartin, President David H. Pfister, Vice-President George D. Kenniston, Secretary Julian B. Gregg, Treasurer L.T.I, two freshman classes not properly in phase with one another. That eminent psychiatrist K. K. Fox began treating this neurotic condition by having classes for the January Fresh- men throughout the summer so that they could join the September Fresh- men to form the largest Sophomore Class up to that time. Socially, the class followed the usual pattern by promoting a gala dance each year and lending its support to the social functions of other classes and organiza- tions. Present plans indicate that college life will be terminated by a wild week of social activity by the class in an effort to build memories never to be forgotten. Since its inception, the Class of ' 49 has left its mark on almost every phase of school activity. Extracurricular ac- tivities, athletics, the Student Council, the publications, the Textile Players, the A.A.T.C.C., the Engineering Society, and all the rest have grown and improved with the help of the forty-niners. Scho- lastic ability was shown to be of high caliber when over twenty percent of the class was elected to Tau Epsilon Sigma. But all of this is behind us. What lies ahead? Most of us do not even have an inkling of the future. In years to come, Knit one Purl Jones will we be compared to those hardy indi- viduals, the original forty-niners whose search for fame and fortune preceded ours by a hundred years? Here, we have received the tools and equipment; the gates swing open on new horizons. The gold rush is on; and the gold is where we find it. Towels for L.T.I.

To all these people, the editors wish to express their appreciation and gratitude for making this work possible and for converting our hopes and plans to a reality. To the very competent staff, both editorial and business, for their tireless en- deavors and help in the planning, editing, writing, rewriting, and correction of every page, with special note to the business staff for providing the solutions to our many financial problems. To Professor Russell M. Fox, our faculty adviser, for his advice and guidance that helped us see the light on many a dark day. To Mr. Louis W.

As manufacturers of a famous line of equipment they have built a reputation for careful engineering and precision work, both of them prerequisites in textile ma- chinery. The president and founder of the firm, Dr. Robert Reiner, has served the hosiery and allied industries from the ranks up until today he heads a progressive organization of the best engineers and craftsmen in the field. INI any of them are Reiner veterans of many y ears service. They have become perfectionists in the making of precision hosiery and other textile machines. The Reiner plants occupy 70,000 square feet of modern buildings. They are located right across the Hudson River from New York City and can be reached in ten minutes by bus from Times Square. Take bus Nos. 61, 67, 167 from the Times Square Public Service Terminal at 260 West 42nd Street, New York City. Get off at Pleasant Avenue, Weehawken, New Jersey.

NEWTON UPPER FALLS 64, MASSACHUSETTS NEW YORK OFFICE - WOOLWORTH BUILDING 158 Monsanto ' s Syton improves woolen and worsted spinning efficiency Now, woolen and worsted spinners speed produc- tion, improve strength and quality of yarn, and cut costs with Monsanto ' s Syton VV-20. HERE ARC SYTON ' S ACTUAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS mh Reduces twist without strength loss 4 Reduces ends down on the spinning frame and loom Kf Produces loftier yarn C9 Cuts spinning time and cost Cj Produces more uniform yarn lij Reduces aging time after oiling WHAT IS SYTON? HOW DOES IT WORK? Syton is a colloidal dispersion in water of sub-microscopic silica which is simply added to the spinning emulsion. By increasing the interfiber friction, Syton reduces the tendency of the individual fibers to slide by one another. The improved fiber drag increases strength and results in better and more uniform draft control.

Reg. U.S. Pat. Office 161 from start Pholo Irom Ewing Oallowoy What is the story behind good woolens that can satisfy the manufacturer, the retailer, the customer? We all know that it is the finish that counts— whether it be in a track meet, a political race, or in woolens. At American London we have spent many years developing THE AMERICAN WAY — American London ' s shrinking conditioning system. And THE AMERICAN WAY means: An exclusive system of shrinking and conditioning that retains or improves the original fabric so that uniform weight, uniform finish and uniform shrinkage can prevail throughout the season— so that there is no guesswork from the first cutting to the finished garment. Our staff of experts determines what process each fabric requires and the end result is a shrinkage-resistance and desirable finish that means more selling power, more wearing power for every woolen stamped with the American Seal of Approval. We believe the only way to finish is first— first in guaranteed satisfac- tion—first in all-out service to the trade. Ask for-THE AMERICAN WAY.

Thus, 1949 finds the Geigy organization one hundred and eighty- five years old.

The typographical error is a slippery thing and sly. You can hunt till you are dizzy, but it somehow will get by. Till the forms are off the presses it is strange how still it keeps; It shrinks down into a corner and it never stirs or peeps, That typographical error, too small for human eyes, Till the ink is on the paper, when it grows to mountain size. The boss he stares with horror, then he grabs his hair and groans; The copy reader drops his head upon his hands and moans — The remainder of the issue may be clean as clean can be. But that typographical error is the only thing you see. 196 s+ ■ v. .TT ' -i: .. MW ftSfi Ac : 7 1 904 Lowell Tech. Inst Ref.
