HORMIDAS R. BOUCHER New Bedford, Mass. Mechanical Bushy is one of the youngest and smallest members of the class. He is known as the midget powerhouse whose mischievous ways have established him deeply in our memories. FRANCIS P. CARNEY New Bedford, Mass. Mechanical Many are the times we have been held spellbound as Magician Carney performed a few sleight-of-hand tricks right before our eyes. A quiet, hard working fellow whom we are predicting someday will be a professional magician. How about a free pass Frank? ROBERT CLARKE New Bedford, Mass. Mechanical Clarky is a quiet, hardworking fellow who possesses a rare creative ability. He designed, built, and operates a Baby Whale outboard motorboat. His likeness to Charles Laughton, the cinema star, is very noticeable and often commented upon. ALICE MARGARET CUMMINGS Buffalo, N . Y. Special We don ' t know much about Margaret, as she has only been in school for a year. Nevertheless she has proven to be cheerful and good natured. and we certainly wish her the best of luck in her life ' s work. 15 Fabricator, , 38 1=

THOMAS P. BARRY New Bedford, Mass. Chemistry Delta Kappa Phi Red-headed Tom disproves the saying that red hair and a fiery temper go together. His temper is very conspicuous by its absence. A baseball luminary, he has led the Textile sluggers in the home run department for the past two seasons. Does imitations of Baby Snooks and Charlie McCarthy on certain occasions. Treasurer 1; Baseball 1, 2, 3; Basketball 1; Advertising Manager Fabricator. FRANK M. BARYLSKI New Bedford, Mass. Mechanical One of the few electricians Mr. Foster has turned out, he is equally as smart in shop and drafting. Genial Frank certainly looks like a future big leaguer in the game of successful living. CHRISTOPHER A. BEST New Bedford, Mass. General Phi Psi Stew is a quiet, well mannered chap who seems to pos- sess that which most of us lack — culture. His life-like sketches of the fairer sex are greatly appreciated during most every lecture, but we are very much puzzled as to how he ever came to be called Stew . CHARLES E. BLOSSOM New Bedford, Mass. Chemistry Delta Kappa Phi Bud ' s surprising, and sometimes upsetting bits of in- formation on any and all subjects up for discussion, have placed him in the position of being both an amateur politician and an agitator at the same time. The course of any argument usually depends upon his point of view. Plays saxophone and clarinet in a dance band, and is recognized as an authority on swing music.

HENRY M. CURRY New Bedford, Mass. Chemistry The lad with the dancing feet and eyes, he alone knows the secret of solving the most elusive of chemical problems to the accompaniment of a swing band. Has achieved some sort of a record for successive attendances at a cer- tain Wednesday night dance. The possession of unlimited vitality rounds out and supports Henry and his nightly schedule. Chaiiman Dance Committee 3; Prom Committee 3. CHARLES DeMELLO New Bedford, Mass. Special Charlie is one of the quiet members of the class. Very seldom seen or heard, he can usually be found in the testing lab wondering what is on the slide under his microscope. ROMEO W. DESORCY Acushnet, Mass. Mechanical A swashbuckling buckeroo who believes in burning the candle at both ends and fortunately never gets burnt. He often spins quite a yarn to the class about his lathe at home — we wonder. LOUIS L. GAGNON New Bedford, Mass. Chemistry Delta Kappa Phi Generally found in the middle of every argument up- holding the minority opinion. Was instrumental in organ- izing a local Social Justice Union. An avid student of American History, but violently opposes the country ' s bank- ing system. Has the courage of his own convictions, and sways you by the force of his argument. Tennis 2. Fabricator. ' 38 16
