1929 THE FABRICATOR JOHN LADINO New Bedford High School Chemistry Advertising Manager Fabricator HAVE you ever seen an old fashioned boy at Tech, well, let me introduce a quiet industrious member of the chemistry quartette. Yes — he ' s our advertising manager and I am sure the Old Gold cigarette people would find that John would be an asset to them. I forget to say he is also qualified as a caretaker, so Twardy says. It appears John, being of a thoughtful nature, takescare of Twardy ' s apparatus, lest the sneaky 2nd year chemistry class relieve Twardy of his beakers, graduates, etc. (J. A. excluded). In all seriousness we are sure Mr. Broadfoot will miss John ' s assistance in making those delicate dye trials. Did you ever hear Ladino burst forth with It ' s all a joke now fellows. You ' ll realize your mistake later. When John starts rubbing elbows with the Duponts, I think he will lavishly bequest a trifle of his surplus currency for the construction and maintenance of a cafeteria at Tech . It appears Ladino is not quite satisfied with the lunch facilities offered in Room 10. (27)

THE FABRICATOR 19 2 9 General Course EDWARD FARROW Absence makes the heart prow fonder Phi Psi ' ED ' is the only student in the history of the school known to have finished his course in one year. That is, Ed was absent three days to every one present. He certainly must have believed in that caption written above. Possessing in his person all that allures the taste and charms the eye, it was he who first directed the attention of the feminine pulchritude towards Tech . A review of his affaires du coeur finds them to be as numerous and as varied as those of King Solomon. He has set down many rules for the procedure of modern Don Juan ' s, foremost of which is Find ' em, fool ' em, and — and — and forsake ' em . It was he who first let us understand that water was made to wash with and not to drink and has often-times staged exhibitions showing the nature and quantity of beverages fit to be consumed by the particular young man. Casting levity aside we are sure that Ed ' s winning personality will lead him to success in his chosen field. (26)

THE FABRICATOR 1929 ADOLPHE TWARDOWSKI Editor-in-Chief, Fabricator Chemistry Cacoethes Loquendi LET us introduce to you the Senior Class ' most accomplished exponent of the forensic act. Twardy , as he is more affectionately known by his classmates, has success- fully proven to us during the last three years that if a man but use his gray matter and tongue properly he can very easily cope with any situation, no matter how intricate or at what great odds. We may add that his most common application of his formula is in getting out of work. For references, see Mr. Brooks. It is his less serious nature however, which attracts to him hosts of friends. He appreciates nothing much better than listening to a good joke and echoing his approval with that hearty contagious laugh that is so characteristic of him. Perhaps this accounts for the unparalleled harmony when he and Farrow get together either in the Lab or some other secluded, yet accessible, rendezvous. Incidentally, Twardy is no slouch at telling stories himself. Let us not be led astray into believing Twardowski is only an intellectual grind , either, for the Maroon and Gray has to look back years in her baseball records to find a guard of the keystone sack to compare with him. It was upon the realization, and appreciation of this young man ' s executive and literary ability by the Senior Class that they elected him to the highly-honored office of Editor-in-Chief of this year-book. Enrolled in the Chemistry course but showing great versatility along other lines, we feel that it is only a matter of time before he ' ll be in some highly esteemed position bringing more honors upon old Tech .
