Curran The morning tune-up has just begun throughout the halls of Tech as we come upon one individual who finds life a bit complicated. No sooner does he open his locker, when he glances up, revealing an extremely puzzled countenance. Do you recognize him? Of course, he is Ronald Babineau, a senior at Tech. It’s small wonder that Ronald seems a little perplexed, con- sidering the many responsibilities and the arduous work confronting him as sports editor of the Tiger. Ronald is worth his weight in gold as a member of the staff because of his knack for writing copy and his vast knowledge of athletics. Not only does he write about sports, but he takes part in them, also. For example, Ronald is one of the foremost players on the soccer team. Goodness, how time flies! Ronald looks at his watch, slams his locker, and hurries to his homeroom. Ruth E. A. David Homer M. Curtis, Jr. Marshall J. Davin Marie C. Deveneau Eleanor B.

Tech students with time off during lunch period to see Liberty Bell. As we listen to the Senior Sonata ever revealing the story of Tech, we become aware of its golden oppor- tunities. We Techites recently experienced one of these opportunities when we all had a chance to view an exact replica of the original Liberty Bell which is located in the old State House of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This privilege was granted to us by the United States Treasury Department. The bell was set on the back of a large truck on Elliot Street, and all students could see it during their lunch periods. There was quite a turnout of students to see the bell and it is small wonder when one realizes how interesting and unusual an event it was. The Liberty Bell has cast upon it this prophetic inscription: “Proclaim liberty throughout the land unto all the inhabitants thereof.” Many years after the bell had fulfilled its purpose by summoning the people together to listen to the old but inspiring message of freedom in 1835, it cracked while tolling for the funeral of John Marshall. It has since remained an object of veneration and will always signify liberty throughout the land. Indeed, the inspection of a replica of our Liberty Bell has proved instructive and timely. Norman E.

A long line is waiting, but two freshmen — lucky ones — are up ahead; Robert Breveglieri is at the left, and beside him is a much surprised redhead, Walter Barker. We can depend on Bob and Walt to help cheer our team at the next game. Behind the boys is Carole Miller, another promising freshman. Carole and her twin Candy are going out for cheerleading this year. They show lots of ability. These twins may be future cheerleaders. Who knows? Oh my, the bell has rung and the medley is gradually diminishing. Left to right: Mr. McMahon, Robert Breveglieri, and Walter Barker start ticket sale for game. A. Bruce Dutton Harold F.
