40 THE TECH RE VII 1930 CHARLES 5 WWWVXKER Art for art’s sake, this neaili g ess little phrase, which never has been clearly dAi led, Mils adequately the person and vocation of our artist Charlie.” He is familiarly known as the m«fit micent lember of our group, which no doubt accounts tb 'the lack of class static” from his part of the loom. Ims rumored that Charles is not at all repug- ffcir sex, yet from all external appearances he fely called bashful? Charlie is also inter- iedboat and automobile design, but his decora- l ech show in the last analysis that his future lies brush. Commercial advertising is his chosen pr ession.

1930 TIIK TECH REVIEW 39 FRANKLIN S. WALKER An interrogative, “Is that right?” accompanied by a hearty “liar, har,” and you know it’s Franklin. One of “Frank’s” favorite sports takes place in the 1 1 :07 dash for 1-1, in which he is usually the winner. “Frank” favors elec- tricity and English. He almost always has his themes ready, when they’re due. We can find “Frank,” with “Bill and Henry, almost anytime, discussing some elec- trical problem. Lately, it seems that “Frank” has a yearn- ing for R. I. State; we wonder why? Franklin is con- sidered to be one of the it” boys, and this must be the reason why he has made so many friends. Northeastern University will undoubtedly claim “Frank” in the fall. Shimming Club, '27, '28, '29; Swimming Team, '29; Social Committee, 4B, 4A; Home Room Representative, 4A.

This dignified young gentleman came to us from Newport, R. I. “G. B.” is not a performer on any of our teams but he is seen at all the games, cheering lustily.

1930 tiip: tecii review 41 The Cheering Squad ‘‘Yea, Rah! Rah! Yea, Rah! Rah! lech! lech! Team! ream!” No, it’s not a cyclone broken loose; it’s lech’s Cheer Leaders. Our Cheer Leaders. I he importance of Cheer Leaders as an incentive to school spirit cannot be over emphasized. Can you imagine a football game without our four loyal enthusiastic Cheer Leaders present to help us cheer for Tech? The honor of being chosen a Cheer Leader is not something which is just con- ferred upon you; it is something which is attained. When you enter High School as a Freshman, even though you may be greenest of the green, your training for that position should begin right then. Go to your school games. Get into the spirit of the thing. Or, even still better than attend- ing the games, participate in athletics your- self. Don’t sit on the sidelines and watch somebody else do the work. Do something! When l ech chooses her Cheer Leaders, she does not choose those persons who languidly inquire when the last hockey or football game was; she chooses those who have school spirit. Then, too, we must take into considera- tion the effect of cheering on the players themselves. Can you imagine anything more discouraging than a team out on the field to win the victory, and upon glancing over toward their school section, beholding about fifty students to the rival school’s five hundred? When a person is playing for his school in the finals, after months of rigorous training, he wants his school there to support and back him up. He wants the assurance that the school is interested in what he as an individual is doing. Will not the wild enthusiastic yells of his class- mates give him new energy, and serve to spur him on more determinedly toward the goal? And that’s what Cheer Leaders are for. To put the spirit into the crowd. Are you doing your part? C’mon lech, let’s go! Yea, Rah! Rah! ’30! Helen E. Kinnecom. Time—Its Value Of all the natural gifts of life, time is most precious, for upon time everything depends. We have millions of moments of time, but we waste—oh how many thou- sands of them! How many people there are who, though even painfully thrifty as regards money matters, throw away mo- ments of time as if they were of no con- sequence. l ime waits for no man. A moment is here, and then gone forever, so
