As a boy, he attended the Washington Grammar School. Upon graduating, he entered Maiden High School for a four-year course. He enrolled at Harvard, Cambridge, in 1909, receiving his degree of bachelor of arts in 1913. During his last year at college, he studied mathematics and philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. During this same period, he also worked for Pro- fessor Percival Lowell, the well-known astronomer. The following year, he left the Bay State upon receiving an appointment as instructor in mathematics and German at the University of Maine. At this time, he entered the field of student activities by assisting the musical organi- zations. In 1915, he entered upon two years ' work with the United States Investor, a financial journal published in Boston, as assistant editor. The call of government upon the entrance of the United States into the World War was not unheeded. After a short stay in Camp Devens as a private in Uncle Sam ' s army. Private Joseph Spear was commissioned second lieuten- ant in the Field Artillery. After graduation from the School of Fire, Fort Sill, he was appointed instructor in Gunnery and Ballistics at the Field Officers ' Training School, Camp Taylor, Kentucky. The war over, Lieutenant Spear accepted an appointment to the School of Engineering, Northeastern University, as assistant professor of mathematics, in the year 1919. He received a well-deserved promotion to the rank of full profes- sor in the same department two years later. In 1921, he was married to Miss Gertrude Mandelstam of Brookline, a graduate of Simmons College with the Class of 1913. For the past two years, he has served the school in the capacity of director of student activities with a success which was to be expected, judging from past achievements. 1923 CAULDRON In all his contacts with the students and members of the faculty of the School of Engineering, Professor Spear has conducted himself in a way to excite the admiration and respect of those who know him, and, as he is one of the most active forces in the School, this includes everyone. Among students and alumni alike, one of the outstanding memories of Northeastern days has been and will continue to be that of the energetic, dynamic personality of Joe Spear. liable of Contents FACULTY SENIORS JUNIORS SOPHOMORES FRESHMEN COLLEGE YEAR ATHLETICS PUBLICATIONS ORGANIZATIONS MUSIC FRATERNITIES BUNK ADVERTISEMENTS xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: FRANK PALMER SPEARE, M.H., LL.B.

WILFRED ALBERT YOUNG Baltic, Conn. 80 Gainsboro St., February 16, 1901 Boston. Mass. Electrical Windham, Conn., High School Willie has never been tempted by any of our student activities, but has, held consistently to his studies during his four years at Northeastern. He has won for himself many friends among the fair sex, most of whom have been decidedly conspicuous by their absence from the basketball games. Now, be careful. Ralph, for we have our suspicions as to the reason, we have. We, the Class of 1923, have seen a greater change and a larger increase in enrollment in the School of Engineering than any other class in the history of the school. We have seen the school grow from an enrollment in 1919 of approxi- mately 350 students to the present 1923 enrollment of over 900 students; like- wise the number of the faculty has increased from a total of 18 professors, in- structors, and assistants, many of whom served only part time, to a total of 31 members who devote all their time to the needs of the school. OUR FRESHMAN YEAR The Class of 1923 entered the School of Engineering in the fall of 1919, firmly convinced that it was the liveliest class to ever pass thru the portals of Northeastern; and subsequent events would tend to prove that those convictions were not entirely unfounded. Officers during our freshman year were as follows: Division A, President, E. C. Converse; Vice-President, A. L. Douglas; Secretary, J. D. Brown; Treas- urer, W. J. Robinson. Division B, President, J. E. Johnson; Secretary, O. G- Caswell; Treasurer, N. B. Dyer. Professor Joseph Spear was elected Faculty Adviser in both divisions. Freshman activities started during the first school term of Division B- The picture of the four classes of Division B was to be taken on the steps of the Art Museum in the Fenway; the upperclassmen ordered the freshmen to stand in the back rows of the picture, but we freshmen did not take kindly to orders, so the upperclassmen attempted to enforce orders, whereupon a very informal scrap ensued, during which many clothes were soiled and torn, and the cam- era man was forced to flee for the life of his camera. As an outcome of this scrap the freshman-sophomore rush was instituted at Northeastern, the first one of which was held a week after the attempted picture at the Art Museum, and consisted of a pole rush, bag rush and tug-of-war. The pole rush and bag rush were furious events, and the points were running even up to the tug-of- war, where, by a great surge of strength, the Class of ' 23 dragged the Class of ' 22 thru Muddy River, thereby winning the first official Freshman-Sophomore Rush at Northeastern. Division A did not fare so well with their rush, however, and were defeated. 67 1923 CAULDRON The first of our social functions, for which we were to become famous, was in the form of a banquet and smoker, held at Healy ' s Hotel, and was the most successful stag party run by the class. Entertainment was furnished by speeches from members of the faculty, music by the school orchestra, entertainers from Keith ' s circuit and last, but not least, Healy ' s famous Kabaray Kweens. At the Midwinter Social, Feb. 19, 1920, the freshmen gave the w-hole school a surprise when, in the very middle of a dance, the orchestra stopped, then played a most mournful dirge. Then in the door filed a group of freshmen in deep mourning, bearing a casket which contained the sophomore colors; the casket was deposited in the center of the floor, and amid the wailings of the mourners, last rites were said for the sophomores. The spirit of the freshmen was further shown on this evening by the wrest- ling team. Altho it was the initial appearance of the wrestling team and altho it met defeat at the hands of Tufts, it is interesting to note that all but two of the members were from the Class of ' 23. Probably the most significant event insofar as it affected us was celebrated on March 26, 1920, in Bates Hall, when the whole school assembled, and by means of much noise, music, and merriment announced to the world in general that the bill giving the Engineering School the privilege of granting degrees had passed through the Massachusetts Legislature. In the spring of this same year, summer school for all students but seniors was inaugurated; and the lease for the use of the Gainsboro Building was signed to accommodate the freshman class entering in the fall. The Freshman Dance on April 16, 1920, was the biggest shock to the pride of the upperclassmen, for Who could imagine the freshmen holding a dance at the Copley-Plaza? Unique dance orders and favors were provided that even- ing, and these, combined with a buffet lunch and perfect music, made the even- ing one of the most enjoyable in the history of the school. Athletically the Class of ' 23 was represented by a championship basketball team, and five men (Converse, Dawe, Huntington,. Kneupfer, Thompson), who stood highest on the list in the number of points won for general all-round athletic ability, were presented with sweaters at Field Day on May 29. On this day B. A. Root, ' 23. was presented a college pillow for the greatest number of points won at Field Day. Thus ended our most successful freshman year. OUR SOPHOMORE YEAR For officers to guide us through our sophomore year the following were elected: Division A, President, E. C. Converse; Vice-President, A. L. Douglas; Secretary, R. L. Donnelly; Treasurer, W. J. Robinson. Division B, President, 69 70 1923 CAIXDRON J. E. Johnson; Vice-President, N. B. Dyer; Secretary, T. A. Stevens; Treasurer, B. A. Root. Professor Joseph Spear was unanimously re-elected Faculty Adviser. On Sept. 21, 1920, Division A greatly outnumbered, suffered defeat in the Freshman-Sophomore Rush. October 8, the Sophomore Banquet was held at Healy ' s Hotel. October 27, Division B, altho outnumbered two to one, won a very closely contested rush from the Class of ' 24, by the score of 179 points to 140, thereby making two successive victories. The wearing of freshman caps and the observance of freshman rules was established as a precedent by the sophomores. On November 19, a Sophomore Smoker was held at the Old Heyward, dur- ing which an improvised football game became so interesting and strenuous that it caused the floor to sag to such an extent that it threatened to break. Sev- eral unruly freshmen were kidnapped, and brought to the smoker, thereby making the work less and our enjoyment greater. The following day, November 20, the Class of ' 23 proved itself able to stand a strenuous night before, without any ill effect, by romping away with the interclass track meet with a score of 50 points, against 38 points for the juniors, the next highest cl ass. December 17, another informal Sophomore Smoker was held in the Gainsboro Building, at which four more or less unwilling freshmen furnished the amusement. During the month of January, 1921, the name of the school was changed from Northeastern College, Cooperative School of Engineering to North- eastern College, School of Engineering. Yet again in the spring of 1922, the name Northeastern College was changed to Northeastern University. These incidents are but a few of the outstanding events which have wrought such changes in the growth and character of the school since our enrollment as freshmen. . On the coldest night of winter, Jan. 18, 1921, the school showed its con- fidence in the ability of the sophomores to put on a good time, by making a journey to Whittier Hall in the Wilds of Everett to attend one of the famous informal dances of the Class of ' 23. Not one person who attended regretted the journey, altho as one was heard to remark, I wouldn ' t be surprised if they ran the Junior Prom in East Weymouth. The biggest surprise of the year came on May 13, at the annual Sopho- more Dance. This dance was greatly advertised by the announcement that a live baby was to be given away to the couple holding the lucky number. Pro- fessor Joseph Spear proved to be the lucky (?) party, and was presented with a 71 72 al923 CAULDRON live baby pig, much to the amusement of all present. The pig was subsequently farmed out to be fattened at Natick and was consumed by the Class in the fall of 1921. The final event of sophomore history was at Field Day, when a couple of sophomores slept at Riverside, the night before and at daybreak fastened the 1923 banner to the mast head. It was during this year that L. Bushnell, with the aid of a half dozen men who could play and a half dozen who could not play, undertook the stupendous task of creating a band. With tireless enthusiasm, despite obstacles that would have discouraged any ordinary man, Bushnell persevered in his pet endeavor. Gradually results began to show, and we find in the senior year that the band is one of the chief matters of pride for the Class of 1923. With such sopho- mores, it is no wonder that the class felt confident of achieving almost any goal set. OUR JUNIOR YEAR Officers for the Class of ' 23 for the year 1921-1922 were as follows: Division A, President, B. F. Keene; Vice-President, A. L. Douglas; Secretary, A. E. Everett; Treasurer, C. M. Huntington. Division B, President, B. A. Root; Vice- President, K. H. Aimo; Secretary, R. F. Reed; Treasurer, E. J. Perry. The first event of the junior year was Pig a-la-Gainsboro, which means that the Class Pig, which had now grown to a real hog at the Natick farm, was consumed with the fixins in the Gainsboro Building. After all present had gorged themselves, a few humorous talks were given by the faculty members, a bit of syncopation was dispensed by the Class Orchestra, then All went home but very few slept. Later in the year, a cup was donated to be presented to the winner of an interclass track meet, which was held March 28 and 30, 1922. The Class of ' 23 easily won this meet, and therefore have the distinction of being the first class to have its name inscribed on the cup. The cup was later given a pedestal of honor at the Junior Prom. Friday, April 28, 1922, the Junior Show was held in Bates Hall; it con- sisted of various acts put on by classes, fraternities and other organizations, all under the auspices of the Class of ' 23. This was the first time that a class ever conducted an entertainment of this sort, and it was hoped that it would become an annual affair. On May 13, an informal smoker and get-together of the class was held in Room 311 G. During the evening, plans for the activities of the class during the senior year were discussed; eats, smokes, and cards were in order and a general 73 74 1923 CAULDRON good time was enjoyed by all. The following Monday, May 15, the Junior Prom, the crowning event of the year, took place at the Hotel Somerset. At nine o ' clock those present passed thru the receiving line, which consisted of President and Mrs. Frank Palmer Speare, Dean and Mrs. Carl S. Ell, Prof, and Mrs. J. B. Pugsley, Prof, and Mrs. Joseph Spear, after which the ladies were given a dainty bracelet with dance order attached, and the men received a Northeastern Uni- versity watch charm. Dancing was in order at ten o ' clock, until twelve-thirty, when a buffet lunch was served, after which dancing was again enjoyed until the strains of Three O ' Clock in the Morning ended the most enjoyable night of the college year. OUR SENIOR YEAR Officers for the senior year were as follows: Division A, President, Joseph E. Johnson; Vice-President, David Milne; Secretary, Albert E. Everett; Treas- urer, Clarence M. Huntington. Division B, President, Joseph E. Johnson; Vice-President, Orville G. Caswell; Secretary, Linwood L. Reed; Treasurer, Charles C. Russell. The one aim of a senior is his degree, so leaving the social activities to the under classes, the Class of ' 23 buckled down to preparation for the Ultimate Goal. However, a senior must have some diversion, so a class smoker was held in Room 300 G. February 15, the Senior Theatre Party was held at the Majestic Theatre, with practically the entire class present. The program was very enjoyable, and all left that evening with happy thoughts of Casazza and Lulu. Here we leave the accounting of the contributions to the History of North- eastern as made by the Class of 1923. Ever will linger the memory of our Alma Mater. — L. L.

This is the day on which the famous Cauldron steams majestically into the press, and it is therefore the beginning of another college year which has all the indications of being the best yet in the annals of Northeastern. Although many fine men who have helped so much to make Northeastern have received their sheepskins and have left us, they have handed down to us the results of their efforts, enabling us to start from a higher level than they did. THE YEAR BEGINS When the curtain rose last April, a sensation of bustle and activity was immediately conveyed to the onlookers, particularly due to the active members of the Class of 1923. Joe Johnson and Al Dawe led in theclosely contested race for the honorable position of President of the Senior Class of next year. The Northeastern Senate, after many investigations and proposals, ac- cepted the Senate insignia, a gold watch charm in the form of a scroll, with the word Senate written in script diagonally across the front. On the back, hori- zontally, beginning on the top is engraved Northeastern, on the next line is Engineering; then a short space, the student ' s name; below, to the left, is the student ' s degree — B.C.E., etc., and year of graduation. Dean Ell delivered a very interesting lecture on Bacteriology to the fresh- men, who received it agreeably, and it is to be hoped that they have guarded themselves against the bacteria, which are liable to infest new green freshmen. The baseball team came to the foreground with a well-earned victory over Middlebury College, 5 to 4. But the varsity baseball team was not alone in it s victory, for slightly behind them the freshman team defeated the Tufts fresh- men by a score of 4 to L A very instructive lecture was given at the B. S. C. E. meeting by Channing Howard, a well-known Boston civil engineer. His subject was The Geographical Formation of Old Boston, in the course of which most of the listeners learned facts about Boston which every Bostonian should know, but probably does not. The A. C. S. also was entertained, first by Herman C. Lythgoe of the Food and Drug division of the State Department of Health, who spoke on The Vitamine Bunk, and next by Prof. A. A. Blanchard of M. L T., whose subject was The Transmutation of Elements into Helium and Hydrogen, but not into Gold. Both lectures were very instructive, although it was thought that the latter speaker would have made an even greater impression had he told how to change Helium and Hydrogen into Gold. GENERAL EDWARDS General Edwards, the well-known leader of the Yankee Division, received an ovation such as few speakers are accorded, when he appeared as a special lecturer in Bates Hall at the mass meeting. He illustrated, by many instances of overseas service, how the character of the American youth of today stood the acid test of active foreign service. A so-called full-time plan was announced by Dean Ell, and from all indica- tions it promises to place before the future engineers a list of subjects which will prevent the men from falling into the rut of narrow-mindedness. The trouble in the past has been that when a man takes engineering, he be- comes an engineer who has practically no knowledge or acquaintance with the world outside his chosen profession. Another point is that many of the students of engineering never become engineers, but turn to profitable businesses, in which very little knowledge of engineering is necessary. On pursuing the administrative subjects, the student, of course, is devel- oped into a much better engineer than he would have been without this addi- tional knowledge and interest. FRESHMAN MINSTRELS The Junior Spring Show was produced with unusual success, due to the combined help by every fraternity, class and musical club. The hit of the even- ing was made by the Freshman Minstrels, a real, honest-to-goodness, one-act minstrel that would bid fair to raise the roof of any vaudeville house; in fact, this was proved a few weeks later when the same team was engaged and lived up to their reputation in putting on their show at the Star Theatre in Concord, New Hampshire. As very often happens in this part of the country, i.e., New England, it rained practically the whole time the baseball team was on one of its trips to Vermont and Maine. In fact, it was only possible for the team to play one game while on the trip. The contests in the Engineering Conference sections to determine the best speaker of each section, when first announced, created considerable enthusiasm among the upperclassmen. After the close of the contest, cups were awarded to the men who had been chosen by a vote of the members of each section. The number of active and intelligent men has increased, as is shown by the latest addition to the Senate of six men, who went through all the necessary steps in fine style. Junior week came to an end in a blaze of glory as evinced by the wonderful Junior Prom, which was held in the prettily decorated ballroom of the Hotel Somerset. The dancing started about ten o ' clock and continued until twelve- thirty, when nourishment was supplied to the happy dancers. At one-thirty the strains of dance music floated out, and recalled the couples from their intermission. With the help of the fine dancers and music, the time slipped speedily by. 129 130 1923 CAULDRON The week previous to May 19th proved to be one of the best in the record of the baseball team ' s history. They won three consecutive victories; the first from Norwich, with a score of 4 to 2, the second from Rhode Island, with a score of 4 to 1, and the third from Clark, with a score of 6 to 5. On Wednesday, May 24th, many Northeastern students and their friends took advantage of the opportunity afforded through the efforts of the Delta Society to attend the Pops on Northeastern Night. The program was a very good one, and held the attention of the engineers by its excellenc e. At a mass meeting on May 25th, those who were competing for the prizes offered to the three best speakers, held the interest of the student body, by pre- senting their speeches with the ability of those with much experience. At the second annual banquet of the Tech staff, Mr. W. N. Parsons, other- wise known as Bill, was unanimously elected as editor-in-chief. The Senior Staff Officers were presented billfolds, by E. F. Maloney, at the conclusion of Dean Ell ' s speech. W. N. Parsons in turn presented Mr. Maloney with a silver cup, suitably engraved, as a token of appreciation for his faithful work during his term of directorship. Edward J. Perry was duly elected our doughty Editor-in-Chief and the then-juniors commended themselves on their choice. May 27, Miss Gertrude Nightingale made her entrance into the world, and while making a lunch of her baby blanket, let a Tech interviewer understand that this wasn ' t such a bad world after all, and started in by giving him a smile that bids fair to start things later on, when she comes to;visit Dad for shop- ping money. On May 29, Howard T. Engstrom was chosen as 1922 Senior Orator at a contest in Bates Hall, and those who heard his commencement address all agreed that the choice was the best possible. June 2, the freshmen held their Hop, to the magnetic (so called in the Tech ) tunes of Jack Penniman ' s orchestra. Not being much on dancing, we have often wondered just why these functions were called hops. The twelfth annual Field Day was held on June 10th, at Riverside. It has been said that since the Northeastern Field Day was instituted, there is sure to be rain during the early part of June, and it is suggested that we change the date to some more congenial time, suc h as December, for instance. Oh, these field days, with their baseball games, canoe races, tilting, diving, and field events, especially when you can watch Prof. Joe Coolidge (built short) take the quarter-mile away from A. E. Smithies (built long). Field Day is the time of the year. Then there ' s the lunch that she brings, made by herself, some- 1923 CAULDRON times, and the canoeing. It ' s no wonder so many of our seniors get married just as soon as they leave school. Then there is the new institution, the flag presentation. This is one of our few ceremonies. Ceremony, as you must understand, being very distasteful to the engineer. They even think it a disagreeable duty when it comes to wearing a cap and gown. On the 16th was held the 1922 Senior Banquet, when the class elected their permanent officers. About this time came the awarding of the coveted N to the athletes who kept our Alma Mater afloat the previous year. Several ' 23 men received their let- ters at this time. The 18th of June was the date of the Baccalaureate Sermon, given in the Old South Church, by Rev. Tichliter. The men elected to the Athletic Association were Albert E. Everett and Allen S. Dawe, presidents of their respective divisions. The seniors set sail for Plymouth on June 19th, but had just about the same luck as the voyagers on that first trip some three hundred years ago — they did not. They came back from their stormy trip, accusing each other of feeding the fishes. We don ' t know, but it sounds fishy to us. Then on the 20th was held the Senior Ball, at Whitney Hall, Ciikudge (can ' t get away from that name) Corner, Brookline. SEVENTY-THREE DEGREES ' The grand finale was, as usual, the Commencement in the Boston Opera House, when the whole University weaned its seniors and gave them a gentle shove out into the wide, wide world. There is pathos in the last class meeting. 132 the last banquet, the last classes, and — oh, shucks. Seventy-three degrees were granted to engineering students, fourteen of which were granted Cum Laude, which is to say, we understand, with honor. For those left in school, however, things do not end with commencement, and the Class of ' 23 was already starting to pick up what ' 22 had laid down when they elected their officers. Now comes the summer, with vacation and summer school mixed, so that the only way to tell when to go to school and when to vacate is by watching your tuition bills. Along here, I believe, was when the Cauldron board sent out its first call for snapshots of the ' 23 men, and they ' ve been hollering since. HIPPO CLUB There was another incident about this time, which only goes to show the fine brotherly spirit of the Class of ' 23 (certain members). There is a certain infinite value to brotherly love that can only be estimated by those who have experienced it themselves, and who possess that finer quality of inter-racial and even greater love for animals. Evidence of the presence of this quality in cer- tain members of the school appeared when certain of them joined in organizing a sort of branch to the Boston Post Hippo Club. By herculean efforts and earnest endeavor they raised the sum of 10 cents among themselves, and forwarded it to this great cause, receiving special commendation in the column of the Post. Doubtless, these gentlemen have spent long hours in the Franklin Park Zoo, gazing at the baby Hippo, and philosophizing on the power of the mighty dol- lar, or 10 cents, in this case. SUMMER SCHOOL Summer school is a necessary evil. When students have sat in the drawing rooms in the main building, with the thermometer hitting the top, and the cir- cus band playing without, who can help insisting that summer classes are an evil? Through the summer school, work had been going on to complete the Caul- dron staff, and by September every office had been taken care of. On Tuesday of the first week of school, Dean Ell welcomed the largest class of freshmen ever enrolled at Northeastern. Professors Pugsley, Spear and Nightingale acquainted the new men with the function and scope of their re- spective departments, and it was here that the freshmen got their first inkling of the coming freshman-sophomore rush, to be held the following Tuesday. Friday of the same week the new men were welcomed into the social life of the University at the Freshman Reception in Bates Hall. Here the embryonic collegians were introduced to the captains and coaches of the various sports; cider, eats and smokes were in order, and the freshmen were further acquainted with the ways of Northeastern. The following Tuesday the Freshman-Sopho- more Rush was held in the Fenway and proved to be one of the most interesting ever held. Despite the loss of their leader, the yearlings won the pole rush, and tug-of-war, the two most important events of the day, and they also scored a win in the six-legged race, but the sophomores came thru well in the obstacle race, winning the first four places. The final total of 260 to 50 gave the yearlings the meet by a large margin. Early in October it was announced that Dr. DeWitt G. Wilcox, M.D., F.A.C.S., had been engaged as school physician. This appointment enables Northeastern men to obtain expert medical advice at no expense to themselves, by making arrangements thru Professor Spear. On October 14 the freshmen, by defeating the seniors in baseball, clinched the title of Interclass Baseball Champions, thereby earning the right to have their name inscribed on the Interclass Base- ball Cup. The following Tuesday the first call for track men was issued by Coach Zeller and 60 men reported for the squad. _ On the last Sunday of October a large number of Northeastern students and their friends enjoyed the first Northeastern Sunday of the year. The well- filled hall certainly testified to Dr. Crane ' s reputation as a speaker. The first meeting of the newly formed Social Science Club was held in Boys ' Hall, with about 85 men present. President Speare and Professor Carver of Harvard were the speakers. A most interesting and instructive evening was spe nt by all, and the possibilities of the club certainly looked very strong. The election of 12 men to the Senate, the honorary society of the school, marked the peak of achievement of 9 seniors and 3 juniors. The Antonio Gorriaran Trophy was presented to the Engineering School by the father of a member of the Sophomore Class. The trophy each year will be won by the man who scores the greatest number of points in outdoor inter- collegiate track meets. The cup represents a fine interest in and enthusiasm for athletics on the part of the donor, and also furnishes additional incentive to our athletes. The gift was accepted on behalf of the School by the General Athletic Committee. The Sophomore Class obtained sweet revenge for their defeat in the class rush, by winning the Freshman-Sophomore Track Meet by the overwhelming score of 53 to 15. The freshies were able to obtain but one first place and two second places, while all the other points were cornered by the sophomores. Our soccer team, formed and organized thru the diligence and ceaseless work of George Frost, certainly made a fine showing when it won its first game by defeating M. I. T. at Tech field by the score of 3 to 2. 1923 CAULDRON Shortly after the opening of the pledging season, the names of 18 lucky men were announced as pledged to some one of the five fraternities at North- eastern. Early in December the General Athletic Committee awarded class numer- als to 20 men for work in track and baseball. The first big social event of the season was the Sophomore Hop, held at the Chateau, December 8. Art Tornquist, the well-known dispenser of syncopation and rhythm, furnished music, and the sophomores furnished the favors, a combination not to be beaten , so it was with lagging steps that we left the floor to the strains of Home, Sweet Home. The Sophomore Class nosed out a win in an interclass track meet by a margin of two points over its nearest competitor, the freshmen. It was with regret that we learned of Miss Pendleton ' s resignation as Secre- tary to the Department of Student Activities, and we all wished her success in her new position. The Radio Club, which had been going ahead by leaps and bounds, finally received permission to build their aerial from the roof of the Y building to the shed in the rear, thereby having an aerial second to none in this vicinity. Many chins were seen to drop when the Senate requirements were set on a higher basis. Needless to say, more studying has been done since. Not only did the Senate push the fellows to study more, but when the notice appeared that all athletes were to be checked up on scholastic work, oh, boys, maybe the dust wasn ' t kept off the books. The new year brought joy to all seniors, with the official announcement that they would have the last week of school off; this meant a successful and joyful Senior Week. On January .5 the Class of ' 23 held their first get-together in the form of a smoker in 31 IG. Plans were at that time announced for a Poverty Dance, to be held at the Beachmont Bungalow on April 28th, and for Senior Week, which had been set as June 9-17, inclusive. The Tech, whose work grows better with time, found it necessary to increase its staff, so added seven men to insure Northeastern of having a wide- awake weekly. The poor old shingles, which had been the cause of many discussions from the time they appeared, were finally discontinued, so that each organiza- tion could award its own shingle. On January 12 the Class of ' 26, Division A, leaped into the blaze of glory by conducting a most successful dance at the Chateau. Sunday, January 21, was booked as Northeastern Sunday, with Pres. Frank Palmer Speare speaking in Bates Hall. Our Glee Club, under the leadership of T. A. Corliss, ' 25, made its initial appearance on January 28 at the Maplewood Church in Maplewood. The month of February brought forth a new body of freshmen to North- eastern. They were given an enthusiastic welcome at a smoker in room 311G, 135 1923 CAULDRON under the auspices of the Student Activities Committee. Many of the prominent students in the school were there, and gave a short talk to the new men. Dramatics were at last introduced to Northeastern by the Alpha Kappa Sigma fraternity, when they presented the comedy Three Live Ghosts in Bates Hall, February 2. This play led to the formation of a dramatic society in the school. Having by this time collected many stray articles, the Lost and Found department realized the necessity of advertising such, as the student activities office was getting cluttered up with somebody else ' s utensils. After much talk among the Mechanical Engineering students, a student branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers was formed on February 5. Because of the good time had by all at the Round-up last year, it seemed as though every one was now talking about the coming Round-up, which is over a month away. This sure proved the saying A satisfied customer is the best source of advertising. The dancing season now being at its height, was pushed up another notch by the Class of ' 24, who held their informal dancing party at the Chateau on February 19. This dance certainly showed that a successful Prom would be looked forward to by all. Cooperation is the keynote of success was proved at the smoker given in 311G by the Division A, ' 26, in behalf of their new brothers in Division B. For the first time in the Engineering School, a Bible study class was formed, which meets every week in the Conference room. Seniors again appear in the social circle by having a theatre party at the Majestic Theatre, February L5. The comedy The Blushing Bride, which was given, could easily have had its title changed to The Blushing Seniors (?). Nevertheless, an enjoyable evening was had by all. Weekly lectures, under the auspices of the Radio Society, have fixed that club in the asset column for Northeastern. Having been plugging away for the last few years, the members of the band were at last rewarded for their unfailing efforts. They accompanied the basketball team on its New York trip and sure left an imprint wherever they played. A student branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers was formed at Northeastern by members in the electrical course. Thru the efforts of those students interested in dramatics, a Dramatic Society has been formed, and they have consented to give their first production at the Minstrel Show in April. Look out, here comes a doughnut, duck; hey, toss me a bottle of tonic; I got mine, I don ' t know about you guys. We are now in the midst of the Eats at the Round-up, at the Boston City Club, and because over one hundred per cent of the student body was present, there is no need to try and explain the kind of a time that was had by all. We sure were fortunate to be able to hear such a speaker as the Honorable Frank G. Allen. 137 3 25 1923 CAULDRON At the Round-up a new Northeastern song, written by C. J. Ginder, ' 21, was first sung, and it was heartily received by the students. This is the first new song for two years. Realizing that more school songs were needed, the announcement has been made that a contest would be run by the school, with the hopes of getting more songs. Prizes of fifty and twenty-five dollars have been set. Speaking of money reminds us that many men are now preparing for the tryouts in the Public Speaking Contest. The winners are awarded prizes of fifty, twenty-five and ten dollars, and three five-dollar awards. Sel Coombs says it ' s an easy fifty. On March 14, the Delta Society held a theatre party at the Copley Theatre, and it is needless to say that the theatre was sold out. Once again the Senate has absorbed another group of students, eight in number, three seniors, three juniors and two sophomores. During this year many new activities and clubs have been started at North- eastern. At this time we have been informed of the organization of the Federal Board Club, which is composed of Disabled Veterans of the World War. It sure is tough luck to be a freshman, especially after the rush on March 13, which was won by the sophomores, 241 2 3 to 158 1 3. Because of the weather the rush was held in the gym, and although it was interesting to watch, it was nothing like the outdoor rushes of a couple of years ago. Those were the happy days. Plans are under way for the Junior Prom. Better start to save now, if you expect to buy an invitation. March 17 might have been celebrated because of St. Patrick, but those who went to the Sophomore Hop at the Somerset that night celebrated and then unanimously agreed that the sophomores knew how to make a dance . successful. The track squad, having finished their indoor season, is given a week ' s lay-off. The Class of ' 25, realizing that an organization was needed in the school to impress on freshmen the traditional customs, organized such a society, called the Sagitta Society. This is to be a permanent society in each sophomore class. Now that the snow has left the tennis courts, the tennis pros are plan- ning a tennis tournament, with hopes of establishing a tennis team at North- eastern. Ahead looms a minstrel show, coming April 14, sure to be a tremendous success, with abundance of laughs at real jokes, at the antics of real clowns; with abundance of enjoyment at the strains of real music made by Northeast- ern men ; with abundance of pleasure at the clever dramatic work of home-bred engineers. Still further ahead gleam the glories of senior week, the last prome- nade, the trip by water, the solemnity of commencement with caps and gowns, the dignity of oratory, the crowning moment when the fingers clasp tightly the coveted sheepskin, and the degree long hoped for is at last a reality. 1923 CAULDRON ROUND-UP STAFF Here let the curtain descend. This act is but one of the earHest for our alma mater. In years to come, doubtlessly more imposing records will be writ- ten, more impressive chapters penned than that which chronicles the events of 1922-192.3. But to us, graduating, none will ever be so dear as this. With hope for Northeastern School of Engineering that she may expand and grow mighty in the realms of the intellect, that her sons may throng abroad into all the chan- nels of scientific endeavor, that her name may be proudest in the role of uni- versities, let the curtain descend, let the chapter close. As we scatter to the four winds, we are still Northeastern men, more so even than when we sat in the shadow of the college buildings.

Tasker A. M. Thompson J. H. Torrey W. H. Young A. M. Zak It can be said truthfully that Track has been the most successful of our major sports. Under Coach Joseph W. Zeller it was proved during the 1921- 1922 season that the track team had real merit and was in a winning streak. This season it has been even more decisively proved that the team ranks as one of the best of its class in New England. TRIANGULAR MEET In the opening triangular meet with B. U. and W. P. I., held in our own gym, early indications of a winning strength became apparent. We completely outclassed W. P. I. and lost the meet to B. U. by only 4| points in the closing event, a thrilling relay. TWO VICTORIES Our class in indoor dual meets became apparent when we completely snowed under the strong M. A. C. team to the tune of 53 to 24, and when we soundly trimmed the C. A. C. speedsters by a 46 to 31 score. The outdoor season bids fair to be fully as successful, with the team keep- ing up to its standard set on the indoor track. THE COACHES The coaching staff has been materially strengthened by the addition of Mr. Parsons of the 1922 squad, who took the place of Mr. Goodridge. Coach Zeller has handled the field events and is gradually strengthening that department. Mr. Parsons has trained the sprinters and runners, and with the development brought about under Coach Zeller last year, has been able to make the runners the main point winners. 1923 CAULDRON THE SQUAD A real point winner has been uncovered this year in Joseph H. Torrey, ' 25, who donned a pair of track shoes for the first time last year. He has filled the hole left by the graduation of Coombs so successfully that our former captain ' s record of 5 1 5 seconds in the 45-yard dash has been tied, and his record of 36 seconds flat in the 300 has been very nearly clipped. Torrey has twice been a double-point winner, and has run anchor on the relay to the delight of the track followers. A great deal of credit for the success of the season is due to Captain Fundin, who has worked hard with the men and who has turned in consistent wins in the 600-yard run. His understudy, Seaman, another new one at the game, is a comer, and will show up to advantage next year. In the 1,000-yard run, W. N. Parsons has taken first in nearly all of his races, and has lowered Nyman ' s last year ' s record by 2 seconds to 2 minutes, 31 2 5 seconds. Young and Caswell have both been consistent winners in the high hurdles, and that department is well taken care of. Brooks has come up to his last year ' s performance in the shot put, and has given us first places in that event. The high jumpers, headed by Davidson, Christenson and Clerke, are still in the middle class, but have been able to pull down points in all the meets. Shaw has performed creditably in the mile, and has been a consistent point winner. OPEN MEETS Early season condition of many of the men was made possible by their entrance into the open meets held during the winter in Boston. The open Y. M. C. A. meet, B. A. A. games, K. of C. games, American Legion games, and the N. E. A. A. U. championships saw Northeastern men entered. Penn Relay Carnival at Franklin Field, April 29, 1922. Running against Carnegie Tech, Rensselaer, Stevens and Brooklj n Tech, our mile relay team, consisting of E. Parsons, Pierce, Fundin and Coombs, placed third. Captain Coombs at anchor made a great fight for second place against Rensselaer. Eastern Iritercollegiates, Springfield, May 13, 1922. A squad of twelve men were entered to uphold Northeastern in this meet, which was won easily by Boston College. We did very well, considering the competition we were forced to meet. Coombs placed second in the broad jump by a great leap, and Flood, newly developed in the pole vault, tied for fourth place. B. A. A. games, Feb. 3, 1923. The mile relay team. Young, Seaman, Fundin, Parsons and Maurette, repeated the performance of last year, finishing a close second to Rensselaer, with Worcester Tech a poor third. Young led off, but in spite of his best efforts, gave Seaman the baton with ten yards to make up. He 147 1923 CAULDRON lost another ten yards. Captain Fundin, running third, showed great power, and cut the lead to ten yards. Parsons showed the results of his conscientious train- ing by slowly, but surely, creeping up on the Rensselaer anchor man, who flashed across the tape, a scant two yards ' winner. TUFTS MEET, May 24, 1922 In the first outdoor meet of the season. Northeastern piled up double the points of its more experienced rival. Score: Northeastern 78, Tufts 39. Our versatile Captain Coombs starred in winning the 100-yard dash, 220-yard dash, broad jump and second in the high jump, with a total score of 18 points. Young, Shaw, W. Parsons, Davis, Brooks and Kelley all took first places in their events. The freshmen entered all, did well and scored 11 points among themselves. SPRINGFIELD MEET, May 27, 1922 The team was defeated for the first time of the season by the strong outfit from the Y College, by a score of 85 to 32. Coombs ran second to Dosting in the 220, who was forced to equal the intercollegiate record of 22 seconds, and won first place in the 440. W. Parsons and Brooks showed their mettle against strong opponents, in winning the 880 and discus respectively. Westhaver and Shenk turned in a good performance in the two-mile. 4i 148 1923 CAULDRON TRIANGULAR MEET, March 10, 1923 B. U. W. P. I. The indoor season 1922-1923 was ushered in very successfully at the tri- angular affair between Northeastern, Boston University and Worcester Poly- technic Institute. Our fliers divided the honors with B. U. in gaining three first places in the separate events, but lost the meet to B. U. in the relay by the close score of B. U. 34, Northeastern 29 , W. P.

MEET DUAL, March 8, 1923 Northeastern swamped M. A. C. to the great satisfaction of the student body. The final score was 53 to 24. Torrey, who began to show his worth in the Triangular meet, was the individual star, winning the 45-yard dash, 300- yard run, and running a close thrilling race as anchor on the relay against MacCready, the M. A. C. star whom he had previously defeated in the 300-yard run. He equalled the Y and college record of 5 1-5 seconds, in the dash. Caswell came through in the high hurdles with a win, and Parsons lowered his 1,000-yard run record, although not pushed. Davidson, Gierke, Brooks, Shaw and Captain Fundin handed over points. 149 BASE BALL 1923 Jiageball ea on Coach Madison P. Jeffery Captain Edward J. Cotter, ' 25 Manager Donald C.

With the first game with Tufts College a month away, they started to get into trim. Practically a new team had to be formed, as only Captain Cotter, Ellms, Dawe, Ayles and Gargaro were the veterans who were left from the previous year. On this account, too much can- not be expected from the team at first, but in the end it bids fair to be even better than last year ' s. The coach is not worried about the pitching staff, as Captain Cotter ex- pects even a better season than that of last year, as his injured back does not bother him any more. Ellms, on the job, ready to give his best, does not seem to be affected by his injuries of last year. Richards, a sub-pitcher last year, looks as if he can give a good account for himself, and a newcomer, Shuman, who pitched for Boston College High, is expected to win games with his pitch- ing and hitting. Of the veteran infielders, Ayles, Riccio and Dawe are showing that they will give a good account of themselves. Smethurst who came out last year, but was forced to quit on account of injuries, is capable of taking ex-Captain Rob- bins ' place on the initial sack. Rothwell of Huntington School, Hanson of English High, Flynn from Concord and Jones and Young, who were substitutes last year, are fighting for their respective positions in the infield. Gargaro, the only veteran outfielder, will be with us again this year. The contest for the remaining two positions lies between McCool, Letourneau and Hearty. The outfield offers the biggest problem, as an entirely new trio has to be formed. The contest lies betw een Gargaro, McCool, Letourneau and Hearty. With these prospects, Coach Jeffery ex- pects to bring out another strong club. 1923 CAULDRON 1922 BASEBALL SEASON At the beginning of Northeastern ' s second baseball season, fifty candidates reported to Coach JefTery on Tuesday noon, February 21, in the gymnasium. There being no facilities to hold inside baseball practice, the men could only have a light work-out to get their muscles in shape. In addition to this hard- ship, when the outdoor practice was called, the weather made it impossible for the men to go outside. The men had to play several games before getting into form. Under the cooperative plan of the school, it is indeed hard to keep the men in trim, and watch out for their weaknesses. However, Coach Jeffery in- sisted on a schedule that would make the men give the best that was in them, rather than play the soft and so-called cream-puff games. It was not expected that the team would be unbeaten, but it is much more to their credit that they played the brand of ball that is expected of strong teams, considering the serious handicaps that our squad had to undergo. In early season, Ellms strained himself so badly that he was unable to play regularly. Cotter, Robbins, Rosenblatt, Jones and Newman made it possible for Northeastern to return many victories, Cotter doing the bulk of the pitching. In the first game of the season against Tufts, Cotter held the Tufts team to only three hits, and two runs in six innings. In the Boston College game, the team got over its nervousness, and Reilly allowed only nine hits and six runs in the entire game. Then the team received opponents that were nearer their own strength. The games they won showed that they could play good ball and win. In the Springfield game. Cotter allowed nine hits and seven runs, while our team got twelve hits and four runs. This was against a team that defeated both Harvard and Tufts College. The crowning game was with Rhode Island State at Kingston, North- eastern winning 4 to 1. We got nine hits to the opponent ' s four, and our boys outplayed them in every direction. SUMMARY OF THE SEASON Northeastern 1 Tufts 5 Medford . . Northeastern 1 Harvard 16 Cambridge .

Stewart, ' 26 J. W. Urquhart, ' 25 155 1923 CAULDRON BASKETBALL Basketball has experienced without a doubt the most successful season since it became a varsity sport, several years ago. The success of a year depends upon several factors, of which the winning of a majority of the games on the schedule is but one. The team upon all appearances has been truly representa- tive of the Northeastern Engineering School and has always fought from the opening whistle to the finish of the game. The team began the schedule by giving the Brown five the surprise of the latt er ' s career, and stimulated by a promising opening, annexed the following games. The turn of the season came with the M. L T. game. The Northeastern men fought desperately with the engineers from across the river, and from be- ginning to finish the game was thrilling to watch. Lack of a man capable of shooting fouls cost the Northeastern boys the victory by a scanty one point, 20 to 19. The loss of Stewart, the brilliant back, was a handicap to be faced. Despite this, the team made a fighting drive at each opponent, and was only defeated when the final whistle blew. The New York trip turned out well for the team. Facing the best fives in the east, each game was nip and tuck from the opening minute. At the City College of New York, the Northeastern quintet was complimented upon its showing against the finest college five in the country. Much credit must be given Coach Jeffery for the splendid showing of the team and for the fighting spirit exhibited upon all occasions. 156 1923 CAULDRON BASKETBALL SCHEDULE Northeastern 17 Brown 21 Providence Dec. 12, 1922 Northeastern 29 Mass.

Nicholson Farnham W. Smith Captain Coach Manaoer The game of soccer football was introduced in the school last fall, and has proven that it will be a permanent sport at Northeastern. The initial organization of the team was made by George Frost, a former English player of sterling ability, both as leader and player of the game. His in- sistent calls for players resulted in a squad being formed. The fall outdoor practice was held in the field next to the main building. A short time after the squad was organized, Frost was recognized officially as captain and coach of the team. He met with several handicaps, but overcame them with his untiring work. Interest in this team was shown, not only by members of the school, but also in other athletic circles. D. A. Nicholson, a former soccer player of greater Boston fame, became interested in the team and offered his services, which were soon accepted. It took him a short time to prove his worth as a coach, and the team began to improve in great strides. Under the combined coaching of Nicholson and Frost, a team was trained and prepared to start playing games. Farnham W. Smith, ' 23, was elected manager, and soon after a game was scheduled with the M. I. T. freshman team. The first game resulted in a victory by the narrow margin of 3 to 2, and proved that our men could face an organized team and win. The indoor season opened at the Commonwealth Armory, with the 110th Cavalry team. The result was a 2 to 2 tie. Confident that we had the better team, the horsemen were challenged to play off the tie. The challenge was ac- cepted and the team carried away a 3 to victory. Manager Smith is now working on a schedule for next fall. The team will practise all spring in preparation for the fall games, and the undefeated squad expects to prove that soccer should become a major sport at Northeastern.

Pierce, the Radio Club has developed re- markably during the past year. The membership has grown and the interest has increased. The radio members have been more engaged in the study of the principles of the new science than in merely listening in on concerts, services, speeches, etc. The aim is to develop in the membership of the Club an intelli- gent understanding of the fundamentals, so that original ideas for the improve- ment of the present apparatus and methods may be forthcoming. The enthusiasm of the charter members of the Club may be confidently expected to spread among the members of the college during the coming year, and big things may be predicted for the lusty infant of 1922-23. A very complete outfit of equipment has been installed, so that ample oppor- tunities are offered for serious study of the Science. 177 1923 CAULDRON Clje CfjcSfi Club The Chess Club has enjoyed a vety successful season. Two tournaments have been held and the membership has grown to a total of thirty. In addition to the arranged tournament games, the members have been active on the squared board, moving the kings, knights and pawns from early morning until deep into the night. President. .

Caesar. The Club was organized by one of the new Division B freshmen, Joseph C. Whitcomb. The idea took hold, however, and the Club is by no means a freshman affair. Whitcomb is the acting chairman of the Club. The plans of the Club include the production of one-act plays at the various school activities, such as smokers, receptions, shows, concerts, etc. An arrange- ment is tentatively made for a joint program by the Glee Club and the Dramatic Club for the coming winter. The cast for the first play follows: . Caesar Brutus S. O. Maxwell Cassius E. W. Fowler Caesar . . . K. S. Smiley Trebonius M. E. Wheaton Antony E. G. Crockett Casca L. F. Merrill Lucius L. P. Cramb First Stage Hand J. C. Whitcomb Second Stage Hand Carl H. Nelson Manager J- C. Whitcomb 1923 CAULDRON agitta otitty of optjomoresi Founded March, 1923 by the Class of 1925 The purposes of this society are to promote inter-divisional activity in the Sophomore Class, and to enforce rulings regarding the Freshman Class, instruct- ing the latter in the customs and traditions of Northeastern. The society is honorary, — the members each year electing their successors from the Freshman Class. It is expected that this society shall make its presence felt in the years to come, as a great force for the preservation of Northeastern ideals and traditions. CHARTER MEMBERS S. O. Maxwell J. H.

A trip to New York and New Jersey was the high point in the season, and praise duly rendered and well deserved was lavished upon this typical Northeastern group. Numerous performances were offered upon various oc- casions, always with success. The honor of opening the Round-Up program was awarded to the Blowers. Clarinets Daniel McKewen Alvin F.

Leavitt 189 The Orchestra opened up its 1922-1923 musical activities with a great deal of hope, some promising talent, but no leader. It was not until almost two months had passed, that L. Rabinowitz was chosen leader. Under his control, the organization has risen from a swell jazz team to a symphony orchestra of thirty pieces. Three leading compositions undertaken and performed publicly by the Northeastern Symphony Orchestra were: The Overture to the Poet and Peasant. The Overture to the Racoczy, by Kaler Bela. The Overture to the Tannhauser, by R. Wagner. INSTRUMENTAL QUARTETTE Mr. Rabinowitz, in an attempt to introduce Chamber Music, organized an Instrumental Quartette, the members of which were as follows: Violin, L. Rabinowitz ' 24 Cello, Sanderson ' 26 Viola, Beckley ' 26 Piano, Schenk ' 26 The music undertaken varied from Mozart ' s Sonatas to the light melodies of Rubinstein. Conductor L.

The assistance of Prof. Joseph Coolidge has been greatly appreciated, and under his tutelage the progress of the club has been rapid. Other appear- ances than those listed were at the Alumni Smoker, the University Club, the Freshman Reception and Mass Meetings. PERSONNEL Leader T. A. Corliss ' 25 Manager M. A.

Appearing at the Round-Up and at the Minstrel Show and Spring Concert, it has made enviable records for itself. Under the leadership of C. T. Holland, a verve and zest has been added to the music given by the organiza- tion, so that there is real musical pleasure to be gained from listening to its work. In time, perhaps it wi ll not be too much to expect that the Banjo Club become a major musical organization. While the instrument does not permit performances of the world ' s best music, still it is capable of much in the hands of well-trained musicians. 196 1923 CAULDRON pEta (iamma Cpsilon Local Fraternity Established 1919 PRATER IN FACULTATE Chester J.
