1928 THE TECH REVIEW 31 DANIEL CARL ADOLPH JOHNSON Look closely at this solemn (?) son of Tech. “Dan” came to its four years ago from Sackett Street School. He has two noticeable weaknesses: one for studying; the other, for athletics. ()utside activities have hindered him somewhat from the latter, lmt he has shown his ability as a member of the hockey team. “Dan’s” fa- vorite subject is “math,” but his marks show that he has done well in all his subjects. He hopes to enter college in the fall, and we wish him luck in his quest for knowl- edge at the higher institution. Hockey, ’28. NELS HAROLD JOHNSON “Hal” Crash! Bang! “What is all that noise around here?” “Oh! It’s only ‘Hal’ coming to school on his motor- cycle. In the short time he has been with us “Hal” has endeared himself to a goodly number of our class. Being a member of the “Silent Sextet.” he may be seen anytime or anywhere with one of its members. “Hal” has l een to all the socials and many of the student dances. He is one of the high lights in that respect. His favorite subject is mechanical drawing. After graduating “Hal” expects to go to Lynn to probe far- ther into the mysteries of mechanical drawing. “Has the last bell rung yet” is a familiar cry in 3-12 as “Don” comes hurrying in at 8:29. During his term of enlistment at Tech, “Don” has attracted many friends of both sexes. “Don” is not a performer on any of our teams but he is seen at all the games cheering lustily, and always at his side is that “Certain Party.” He says he is not partial to any subject, and after graduation he will enter Bryant and Stratton’s in search of further knowledge. Class Treasurer, 4A; Chairman Class Ring Committee; Stu- dent Dance Committee, 4A; Tech Review Board 4B, 4A. MARY ALICE KASPARIAN This dignified mademoiselle came to us from Candace Street School .four brief years ago, during which she has augmented the number of her well wishers. Al- though Mary has not participated in any of the sports, she has regularly strengthened their financial backing. She and Rebella are kindred spirits. This quiet (?) little girl confides to us that she likes dressmaking and domestic art. After leaving Tech, Mary intends to train for the business world. DONALD SPINK JONES

30 THE TECH REVIEW 1928 HARRY WARNER HUNTINGTON “Wumpus” “Wumpus” is a product of Peace Street Grammar School. He has attended all our socials and no student dance would he complete without his services as bouncer. Biology and art are his favorite subjects although he gives some attention to the rest. “Wumpus” and “Henry” usually arrive at school about 8:15 A. M., after which time one may find him strolling through “Lovers’ Lane.” The Pratt Institute of Fine Arts will he his next Alma Matter. Student Council, ’25; Tech Art Club President, ’25, '26; Tech Dramatic Club, ’26; President, '27: Debating Society, '26, '27; Student Dance Committee, ’28. FRANK IACONO “Ike” “Zing, Bam, Bang.” Oh! its all right, hoys, nothing has started except Ike’s racing car, “Dynamite.” Ike as he is called by some of his friends, is a quiet honest, studious chap. Although he has not participated in athletics, he has contributed generously towards the community chest. He excels in chemistry, shop and Italian. He never omits student dances or socials. After school, with a few of his friends, Ike races off in his high powered car. In Septeml er, he expects, with his friend Gemma, to enter Rhode Island State College. Home Room Representative, ’25; Track, ’26; French Club, '26; Italian Club, ’28. REBELLA MARY IANNUCCILLO This sedate young lady, with the solicitous expression on her face, proves that good things often come in small packages. She is diminutive, hut she has earned an Honor Society pin. Rebella has worked conscient- iously while she has been in Tech, hut has always been responsive to the needs of her neighbor. She delights in test tubes and Bunsen burners. We wish success for Rebella in whatever she decides to do after leaving Tech. R. I. Honor Society; Italian Club, '26, '27. CHARLOTTE AM El LA JOHNSON “A friend in need is a friend indeed.” This adage may well be applied to Charlotte. She is a “shark” in geometry problems. Charlotte is a very active athlete, and is naturally so intelligent that she doesn’t have to worry about her lessons. Although Charlotte is un- decided as to her future, we are convinced that she will succeed in whatever she attempts. Basketball, ’26, ’27, ’28; Hockey, ’28; Volleyball, ’28; Base- ball, ’25.

32 THE TECH REVIEW 1928 REALM MADEROS KECHIJIAN Here is a serene and unassuming youth who is on the best of terms with all of us. Although interested in sports, he has never taken part in them, but has con- tributed financially to their support, lie isn't exactly a “bookworm,” but ingeniously pulls through his studies fairly well. Providence College will be his Alma Mater. Good luck to you, old boy! HAROLD KELMAN “Hecla,” “Kelly” Well, who doesn’t know Harry? It is through Harry’s wonderful attributes that he has made so many friends. “Kelly” is an outstanding musician, and so at socials and student dances, he is always present with his “sax” to provide the sweet melody. Harry also applies his technique to a small black instrument, which he pleases to call a clarinet. Since Harry is a hard worker, we feel sure he will be successful, and in the future we expect to see him impressario of one of the world’s most famous orchestras. Glee Club, ’26, ’27; Senior Orchestra, ’28; Tech Band, 28; Tech Varsity Stampers, '28; Senior Day Orchestra, ’28. ALBERT FREDERICK KETTLEBAND “Al,” “Jickey” Crash! Bang! Oh, that’s only “Jickey” Kettleband, taking his daily slide down the pond Street stairs. 'This dli line to “Tech” from jovial candidate for Broad i e GnilujC) 11 is jolly countenance and plea aiiGits nave won him a place in our regard. “Jickey’ xlaims that English, girls, and loud neckties are his nost interesting subjects. “Jickey” has never “scorned delights and lived laborious days” in order to study, but he has succeeded. He is undecided about his future, but we know he will “make good.” CATHLEEN ALLEN KIERNAN Whose merry laugher is that we hear resounding through the corridor? Why that is Cathleen’s. She may look stately, but you will learn that she’s jovial. Cathleen was ill and had to stay from school for six months, but she has kept up with the class. She has attained high marks in all her studies, but claims nutri- tution and French her favorites. We are sure she will be a kindly, competent attendant to her patients at the Rhode Island Hospital, where she intends to study to become a nurse. French Club, ’26, ’27; Hockey, ’24.
