4 English 1 1 luh School EDWARD F. DUNN Red Carrots Baseball 1—2—3 fe w I ' ln Psi „ mi i ' si licral Cotton , rextile school woke up one morning three years ago to find that it had on its roster, this collegiate chap from Roslindale. Soon after his arrival here lessons and hooks were forgotten, and all the boys studied under his tutilage, how to be collegiate. His whole three years were taken up in bobbin throwing, indoor golf and in trying to ascertain whether or not Hardy ' s girl reads a magazine or a newspaper. Red is a great Ladies ' Man, as he certainly gets the ladies. His nerve combined with his good looks (?) got him in with the most prominent families in Xew Bedford. Xext year Red intends to hit for the south, and you can bet on Red making good. EVERETT G. FINNELL Xew Bedford High School Dinty E. G. Football 1 — 2. Class Treasurer. Delta Kappa Phi Chemistry This likeness is none other than that pride of the Chem. Lab. and des- pair of all the fair maidens. Dinty Finnell, R. C. What the R. C. stands for any chemist knows, but they ' re a clanny bunch and we couldn ' t get it out of them. Dinty tosses a mean basket with the K. K. K. — but Mr. Brooks can toss him for a fall anytime in advanced Organic. He reached his real stride last fall, when he worked up to an M. S. D. degree. (Master Sock Dyer.) Dinty contributed considerable to the wear and tear of the floor at Little Bournehurst. but that ' s all over now, and we expect great things of him. even if he does think that photographers still use head-clamps.

HENRY COLLINS Phi Psi Pawtucket Higfh School Bis? Dick Driver General Cotton Football 1 — 2 Class Secretary Contrary to all reports. New Bedford got its first showing of The Covered Wagon when Henry wheezed into town behind his six horses. He pulled them up in front of the school for backward boys, hitched up to a hydrant because he had balloon tires, kicked the mud of Pawtucket off his feet, and sauntered in. The records show that Henry has stayed in town only one week-end in the three years, which goes to show how the iron hand of the other sex can control him. He is easy prey for a good looker, on condition that she is a blond. But on the other hand, the girls are lucky, for he is a manly boy, as Horace once said. An revoir. Driver, don ' t forget to grease the wheels after every trip. WALTER F. CURRY Holy Family High School Joe Business M°t. Fabricator Delta Kappa Phi Chemistry Joe came into our midst three years ago and announced his ambitions of becoming a chemist. He first came into prominence as a member of a local brass band, but soon gave that up and settled down to diligent study. His greatest work has been on artificial silk. He says that nobody knows very much about that subject, even to himself. Joe is the original humorist in the small lab, and is also the proud pos- sessor and wearer of the pants, renowned throughout the school. He is one of our shining lights in the laboratory, and we know that he will knock starches and sizings for a row of loops when he gets out in the mill. [ Tzventy-four]

EDWARD FOSTER New Bedford High School Ed Pres. of A. A. — 2 Pres. of Tennis — 3. Delta Kappa Phi General Cotton This example of perfect purity hails from somewhere in the direction of East Fall River, coming to Textile from the local High School. Ed is the peer of them all in the rough art of tennis having won the cup offered by the Chinese Club to the champion of the tennis tournament. He also went in strenuously for indoor sports, having won his letter in bobbin-throwing. He was a very able assistant to Capt. Pressman in this sport. As soon as he can borrow the money we expect him to get married but we fear that he will be one of the few; (who want to borrow money.) New Bedford Hisrh School HUDSON E. HARDY Harold Lloyd Phi Psi General Cotton Three years ago. Hardy deciding work was unnecessary, signed up at Tex, so that he would be able to obtain a good insight into the art of climb- ing ladders. He has succeeded — in falling off them. Before coming here he must have magnetized his head, as his superb dome has a great affinity for bobbins etc. In his first year he proceeded to blow up the chem. lab. by holding a match to a beaker of benzine and this caused several reactions, one of which was the reduction of his coat to ashes. Lately Hardy has been hanging around the Empire Restaurant. We wonder why. However, as a student Harry has made g ood. He knows his stuff, and his mechanical turn of mind will some day give us the opportunity of saying that a great inventor graduated from Textile. [Twenty-sir]
