1930 THE TECH REVIEW 80 Tech Hi Y The l ech Hi-Y is composed of the out- standing Juniors and Seniors. This society is organized to promote better sportsman- ship in athletics, and for the purpose of “helping to create, maintain and extend high standards of Christian character throughout the school and community.” Our l ech Hi-Y is only one of many Hi-Y’s all over the United States. Each member of the club is pledged to help the other fellow. 1 he Hi-Y has been of great service to our school in many ways, the most apparent one being the semiyearly publishing of the Freshman Guides. These booklets contain a great deal of information about the school and are given out to enter- ing Freshmen so that they may better ac- quaint themselves with their high school. Weekly meetings of this club are held in the Providence Y. M. C. A., under the direction of Mr. Cranston, our advisor. The present officers are: James Raymond. President; Kenneth Knowles, Vice Presi- dent; Donald Jeffrey, Treasurer; Raymond Westcott, Secretary. Our present enrollment is approximately twenty-five. Membership to this club is ob- tained by invitation only. Raymond Westcott, Secretary. Sketch Club 1 he Sketch Club formed early last spring by Mr. Ralph C. Scott for the pur- pose of creating an interest in landscape sketching, had thirty-five members enrolled at the beginning of the present school year. I rips were made to various parts of the city, particularly the waterfront, one afternoon each week, where sketches were made from nature. The results were most gratifying, several showing marked ability and talent. High lights of the year were—a talk by Mr. Antonio Cirino of the R. I. School of Design on landscape painting; a chalk talk by Mr. George Channing Darling, and a visit to the Providence Art Club.

00 TIIE TECH HE VIEW 1930 The 1929 football campaign was a huge success. To begin with there were about six regulars back in the line-up, and out of forty or more other candidates. Coach Walter Parker moulded together a great eleven. This team was victorious in seven of its scheduled games and lost one which was to Waltham. It defeated Worcester Clas- sical, R. I. State Freshmen, Central Falls, Lynn Classical, Rogers, East Providence and our traditional rival, Hope. It was rated as the best schoolboy eleven in the state. It placed six men on the All- Conference team. Captain Seymour, Ro- telli, Jorjorian and Garbecki captured first team berths, while Gardner and Dwinell made the second team. Hand, Platt, Mail- loux, Ward and J. Souther received hon- orable mention. The team scored 207 points to their op- ponents 33. Captain Seymour was high scorer of the team and of the state. Quite a few of these men graduate, but we lcok to Coach Parker to develop a fine team next year. At a meeting of the letter men Spencer Gardner was chosen captain for next year. Coach—Walter Parker Captain—Walter Seymour Manager—Myron Swanson Tech Defeats Worcester Classical, 12 to 6 The football season opened with Coach Parker’s charges facing the heavy Worces- ter Classical team at the Cranston Recrea- tion Field, October 5, 1929. It was a hard-fought contest, as the score indicates, with Tech winning by the score of 1 2 to 6. On the second play of the game, Capt. Seymour was injured and was taken out of the game. Garbecki then took over the quarter-back position, doing a fine job, while Mailloux filled in Garbecki’s half back position. The highlights of the game were tl.J forward passes from Platt to Jorjorian. Platt picked up a fumble and ran sixty yards for a touchdown, which was not allowed as the new rules forbid it. Tech scored in the second and third periods, while Worcester scored early in the first period. The summary: TECH (12) WORCESTER (6) Jorjorian, 1. e J. Souther, 1. t.,. .1. t. , Hodgekinson (Capt.)
