1928 THE TECH REVIEW 5 JOSEPH CARMINE ALTIERI There he goes my old “pal Joe.” Little Joe, the small boy with the big voice, came to us four years ago from Laurel Hill Ave. Grammar School. Each morn- ing at 8:28. you can see him with his friend Archie, leaving his famous “Westcott” in some parking space, and then hurrying up the stairs to 3-7. Although Joe has not taken any active part in athletics, he has sup- ported them financially and also all our class socials. As to his favorite subjects, mathematics tops the list. After completing his high school career, he intends to spend one year at Kingston and then transfer to M. I. T. CARLO AM ELIO Carl came to us several years ago from Federal St. Grammar School. During his stay with us, he has gained friends by the dozen. Carl was obliged to leave Tech after finishing his sophomore year, but a few years later, he came hack and completed the course in one and one-half years. His share in athletics has been financial. Carl is a great lover of swimming and is an expert in this sport. As to his future, he is un- decided at present, hut we shall not he surprised to see him enrolled in some collegiate institution. JAMES ANTHONY ANDERSON This determined looking young man is “Jimmie.” He came to us from the George Clinton Calef School in 1924 and he has made an impression on all with whom he came in contact. “Jimmie” is a studious chap and although working after school has prevented him from taking active part in athletics, he has given freely to the support of them. He waxes eloquent over mathe- matics and lunch. He can usually he seen with “Duke.” “Jimmie” plans to enter the business world after grad- uation. and we shall probably hear of him later as a successful business man. GEORGE EARL ANDREWS, JR. Four years ago, after graduating from Peace Street Grammar School, George made the “lucky strike” of choosing Tech as his future temple of learning. Throughout his high school career, he has maintained a high grade in all his subejets and is now one of the sharks of our class on “math” and chemistry prob- lems. With the help of Mr. Aust, George has kept our stock room functioning for the past two years. George’s interest in electricity has prompted him to further his knowledge in a higher institution and accordingly we shall see him next fall climbing the hill to Bruin land.

6 THE TECH REVIEW 1928 JOHN KENNETH ANDREWS There goes John with a stack of books under his arm. John made a good choice and came to Tech from Asa Messer, a short four years ago. His favorite study is chemistry, with electricity holding second place. Dur- ing the past year John has worked in the Tech office aiding it to maintain its high degree of efficiency. Al- most invariably he travels with George Andrews. No, they are not related to each other. In the fall, R. I. State College will conduct John further along the path of knowledge. EDWARD FRANCIS BAGLEY Stand hack hoys here comes “Eddie” who can often he heard calling, “Hev, Duffy,” to his friend Flynn. Eddie’s hobby appears to he the girls, hut lie’s a regu- lar fellow and that’s what really counts. “Eddie” at- tends all of the student dances and socials and he is certainly some “stepper.” After 2:30 “Eddie” can he frequently heard lecturing his Pal “Spen” on the yeas and nays of their social engagements. Next fall “Eddie” will continue his investigation of hooks in some higher institution of learning. Freshman Soccer: Orchestra '24, '25, '26, '27, '28: Dramatic Club, ‘27.

NICHOLAS ANTHONY BAR BIER I “Nick” is the possessor of many sterling qualities which make him not only a good student hut also a true and willing friend. He has shown his ability to work by winning his place in the Honor Society during his three and one-half years stay at Tech. Among his favorite subjects are French, commercial drawing, and physics. The Boston Art School will next assume the direction of this young man’s abilities next fall. French Club, '27, '28; R. I. Honor Society. EVERETT MICHAEL BATTEY “Crash! Pop! Tinkle!” — —? — —?! “What’s that?” Oh! that’s just “Professor” Battey breaking another test tube or something up in 5-13. This emi- nent young chemist came to us three and one-half years ago from Laurel Hill. His is a bland countenance, even when arguing with “Uncle Dave” Hill. He haunts the student dances and socials in person as well as being “there” with a fat purse and therefore is quite a popu- lar “stude.” “Eve” intends to go to the college on the hill, where no doubt he will try to find some elusive atom in the chemistry “labs.” R.
