1930 THE FABRICATOR JOHN THOMAS ALLEN Springfield Springfield, Mass. Chemistry Delta Kappa Phi; Class President (3) ; Chemical Society President Chemical Society pJOW when I was in the Gas Works, or in Springfield are the famous, familiar words uttered by the eminent chemist, John T. Bossy Gillis Allen. John is a very popular boy and all the teachers take great delight in learning a few things from Jawn. He is very often seen in consultation with Mr. Smith, and according to the outcome of our class activities, we sometimes wonder if it ' s Mr. Smith or John Allen who is running the school. The class recognized in John, a second Bonaparte in his achievements, so we elected him Class President, and we will never regret the election. In the laboratory he is a chemist par excellence. What he doesn ' t know is a job for the Research Chemist. He is also a pugilist of renown ability; ask Friedberg his sparring mate! You can always hear his clear ( ?) Irish tenor harmonizing with Jakie ' s ?? until Mr. Busby decides that he has heard enough of this agonizing outburst. Casting levity aside, we have no doubt that John will rise to prominence in the chemical world, and some day we will see John in his own laboratory as Chief Chemist. He has our best wishes for success. (25)

THE FABRICATOR 19 3 CHARLES J. AGRELLA New Bedford, Mass. Designing Soccer (2), (3); Baseball (1), (2), (3) A. young boy entered New Bedford Textile School three and a half years ago and shyly stepping up to the desk to register, said, Charles Agrella. From then on the boyish feature receded and Charley is now a tower of strength. Ask Gilbert, he knows from experience. Charley and Mr. Broadfoot had many wonderful debates over the term Degrees twaddle in the Dyeing Class, and the mystery of Ohm ' s Law at last became a well-known fact to Charley. Charley distinguished himself in Soccer and Baseball. In Jacquard, Charley was the first to finish painting his weave and cutting his cards. His original Color Plate was on exhibition, as also was his Design book. The ice up at Buttonwood Park felt elated when Charley stepped upon it and began his fancy steps. Charley ' s one ambition is to be a skating instructor. Femininity regard him as a runner of strength, and well they might, for any- thing athletic sees this young man from the West End (where men are men and the ladies are glad of it). Best of luck Charley from the Senior Class ! (24)

The one and only Stanley Allen, better known as Sam . This young man is the school ' s greatest Electrical fiend, as you will find him at the New Bedford High School Wireless Station experimenting or making new friends over the air.

As Manager of the Fabricator Advertising Department, Sam has ac- complished quite a good deal. He has proven to Tech. , that besides being a chemist he is a business manager.
