In early September our safari sets out along the route which rewards the survivors with exciting experiences and newly opened horizons. For the bashful, bewildered freshmen, inexperienced novices, the trek is through mysterious realms occasionally brightened by the grinning juniors. The juniors, or experienced hunters, are familiar with the sudden turns in the trail, but the deeper secrets of the surroundings remain unknown. The expert huntsmen, the seniors, are confident of achieving their goal, symbolized by the Tech tiger. Their three years of hard work mingled with pleasure are rewarded by the capture of the tiger . . . the rounded ae and unforgetable memories of good times that only Tech can offer. So follow us to capture the Tech tiger spirit on the trail that we have blazed below. PEhet Organizers: 7c. eee ep eM eee iin. 6 Guidesiand ‘Routes 2 oo cena eee en ee rere fe Expert: Hunters 2...

JACKSON : Helping Dr. Gans is Mr. Jackson who works hard to keep our trek running smoothly. He is known by all for his never ending wit and great enthusiasm. His short bouncing figure can be seen here and there taking care of his numerous duties or cheering Techites on to victory at a game. He too has the unquenchi- ble spirit of all Tech. One of Mr. Jackson’s biggest and most rewarding jobs is producing Tech Tantrums. He always manages to arouse enough enthusiasm in the student body to stage a nigh perfect performance for a sellout crowd. Another job of his is managing the Student Patrol which keeps law and order in our midst. With these two capable organizers, Tech just has to be the wonderful school it is. DR. GANS Heading our expedition is Dr. Gans. We are very lucky to have such an excellent organizer. His combined humor, understand- ing, leadership, and enthusiasm make him popular with pupils and faculty alike. He is more than just the principal with a ruling stick in his hand. He is a true and sympathetic friend to all who come in contact with him. Besides his regular administrative activities, we often hear him tickling the ivories in the assemblies or in spare moments. He is very capable at both the piano and the organ. His enthusiastic spirit is with him everywhere. We can spot him at a game cheering for our striving teams. This combination of abilities explains why our expedition is such a well organized one. Seated, left to right: Thomas H. Candon, Jean S. Bailey, Ethelle C. Friedman, Muriel F Jefferson, Pasquale V.

It seems quite obvious that they don’t need three years to reach the goal, for they all have obtained the Tech Spirit. | They have made themselves an important part of our safari, participating enthusiastically in every- thing that comes along. This group of nine includes Miss Freedman, Miss Jefferson, and Mrs. Bailey; Mr. Romano, Mr. Hall, Mr. Candon, Mr. Wilke, Mr. Holley, and Mr. Hannigan. To you newcomers, the members of the Tech Tiger give a hearty ‘‘Wel- come’’. FAREWELL DR. LEO GANS HAROLD W. SCHELLENGER ALEXANDER D. DAVIS RETIRING TEACHERS Most regretfully we bid farewell to Dr: Leo Gans, the man who has so ably led us through all our vicissitudes and triumphs these last four years. We indeed wish him many productive and happy years with the American Book Company to which he has transferred his talents. With regret also we say good-bye to our long-time friends and guides. Mr. Alexander D. Davis and Mr. Harold W. Schellenger. For years Mr. Davis has skillfully guided our boys through the intricacies of mechanical drawing, and found time and patience likewise to act as dispenser of bus tickets. To Mr. Davis we sincerely wish a return to health and renewed vigor to enjoy his well-earned leisure. Mr. Schellenger, besides expounding the mysteries of mathematics, has been invaluable as locksmith, and as photographer extraordinary. May he in the future enjoy many years of leisurely photography. OFFICE STAFF Oo Left to right: Mrs. Marilyn Foy, Mrs. Dorothy Angers, Miss Stella Gilwech, Mrs. Ella LaBarre Before our Tech safari sets out, our plotters and planners, the office and guidance workers, must labor mightily to outfit our party properly. To Mr. Lynch and Mr. Sprague had fallen the heavy burden of planning a different type of program for 900 upperclassmen and 600 freshmen. Mr. Lynch helps the college preparatory and technical boys plot their courses and colleges, and Mr. Sprague guides the general boys. As Secretary of the Lions Club and Executive Secretary of the U. S. Revolver Club, respect- ively, Mr.-Lynch and Mr. Sprague should prove invaluable on our Tech Trek. Miss Whittemore ably counsels Tech girls in school and on the job. Conducting aptitude tests is Dr. Theinert’s job. Dr. Theinert, a veteran traveler, and Miss Whittemore, our moun- tain climber, feel quite at home on our safari. Mrs. Angers is secretary to our “‘grand and noble” chief guide, Dr. Gans. Mrs. LaBarre keeps the records of the absentee explorers and has charge of the daily bulletin of jungle flashes. All our provisions are ordered by genial Mrs. Foy. General office superintendent is Miss Stella Gilwech. This able staff of plotters and planners is bound to make our Tech Trek a success.

Keeping us happy, healthy, and well fed on our Tech Trek are two important groups of people. The first helps to satisfy our appetites and the second keeps our school.a clean and attractive place in which to study. We all enjoy lunch period for it is at that time that we can relax and chat with our friends. Our hunger is satisfied by the tasty food served by our capable cooks. The kitchen staff is headed by Elin Tillan. Assisting her are Ida Bolduc, Hilda McCombe, Josephine M. Saracino, Goldie B. Deyo, and Mary E. Lura. Every safari needs people to keep the equipment in good working order. Keeping a watchful eye on things is Mr. Atherton, Head Custodian. Helping him are Bridie L. Aiken, Domenick Bianchi, Vernoll E. Bigelow, Nellie B. Connors, David A. Duncan, Mary Feriola, Mitchell J. Kochanek, William M. LaVallee, Jr., Chester E. Marlowe, Gerald J. McCarthy, Thomas P. O’Connor, Carl I. Persson, and Francis J. Sears. Here at Tech we are proud of our well swept classrooms, neat halls, clean water bubblers, constant heat, workable windowshades, and well kept grounds.

Guyer and Celeste Adams using linguaphone. sentences. Why take a foreign language? We need more than English to carry us over our trail. We can choose among French, Spanish, and German. In -French, pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar are of primary importance. Each year brings us nearer to our goal, the ability to understand and converse with any Frenchman we may meet. In Spanish classes we’re learning all about Spanish verbs and vocabulary, trying to understand the Spanish of other classmates, and trying to make ourselves understood. Then we read in Spanish. Now here’s a new trick. We’re being recorded as we read. The German classes too, are busy. What are those papers? They’re newspapers, and all in German. What an ingenious way to learn vocabulary and the various constructions of the German sentences! Also, it gives a good view of current happenings in Germany. Leaving behind us the foreign language rooms, we Front, left to right: Mr. Newhall, Miss McCarthy feel we are almost natives of the countries Rear: Mr. Mitchell, Miss Jaede we have studied. | For the past ten to twenty-six years our Paul Corish, Ohannes Atanian showing some of the Spanish speaking guides, Senor Mitchell, Mademoiselle Jaede, countries in South America.

Through ewer their valiant efforts we have learned much 4 French, German, and Spanish. whi However, after a grueling day on the trail these people enjoy a change from their duties. When Miss Jaede and Miss McCar- thy get home they indulge in housekeeping and gardening. Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Newhall read, paint, write books, and take part in sports. During their vacations both men and women like to travel. These teachers have a hand in such Tech activities as club and class advising. We give thanks to these guides who DAS made possible the attainment of our goal. 12 ENGLISH AND LIBRARY i ; Y a a AL ? Front table, left to right: Malcolm George, Elton Holden, Joyce — Seated, left to right: Stanley Bandoski, Martha Heiden, Frank Sullivan. Desk: Marcella Mitchell. Standing: Mrs. Brazeau. We’re off; over the trails, twisting and winding, through our three years of English. As novices we encounter leering at us various dark shapes of compositions, differ- ent forms of literature, and our old friend grammar. These are all aids to getting us acquainted with our guides and fellow novices. As experienced hunters we continue with these old friends and also branch into re- search, learning its methods and values. Now expert hunters are we. Preparing for the outside, we learn how to write business letters, and how to conduct our- selves at interviews. All our college aspir- ants really settle down to the job of learning all they can before their College Boards. One bright spot on our long journey is our school library. Supervised by the genial Mrs. Brazeau, ‘“‘Mrs. B”’ to all, this is a joyful, restful spot to every weary traveler. Here we have a chance to borrow books or magazines or to cram for that approaching test. Our library is the place for peace and quiet when our Trek hits one of the hardest points. This year, along with the newly arrived novices, have come four ‘‘novice’’ guides to the English department. These teachers are Mr. Holley, Mr. Candon, Mr. Hall, and Mr. Wilke. These men coming from Illinois, New York, Maine, and Vermont enlarge the geographical distribution of teaching exper- ience in the department. All their knowledge adds to the already accumulated knowledge of our old friends. The hobbies of our newcomers correspond and add to those of the teachers who have been here at Tech. They are sports, oil painting, woodworking, stamp collecting, and photography. A l- though these men have just come to Tech they have already found that such extra- curricular activities as class advising, Hi-Y, and yearbook vary the routines of the day. Smola.

We’re on our way, but first—have we a back- ground of science to solve some of nature’s mysteries? Let’s look at our guides. Miss Potter and Miss jefferson, bird lovers, spend much time with the Allen Bird Club. Mr. McMahon, a fit athlete, was at one time an amateur boxer. Mr. Allen loves camping and travel. Mr. Northrup and Mr. Butler indulge in the outdoor sports of swimming and golfing. For entertainment we can always call on Mr. Romano to play the piano; or Mr. Case, the guitar. You see our guides are not only expert in their designated field but are a part of everyday life. Freshmen cutting up — Left to right: Beatrice Henrich, Patricia Attleton, Rosalie Evangelista, Marti Sabin, Natalie Aldrich, Maureen Flaherty. Standing: Miss Potter. Misses Potter and Jefferson help us with biology, the study of life. We'll see plenty of that along the trail. Miss Potter, secretary of the New England Biological Association, and Miss Jefferson, with her Bachelor of Science and Master of Education de- grees, are authoritative guides. What about building temporary encampments? Physics, the science of nature and its properties, explains the natural laws governing utilization of a material with energy. The boys, our strong arm helpers, especially need physics. Guides Allan, Reid, Butler, and McMahon are interesting -and helpful in _teaching these fundamentals. Seated, left to right: Mr. Reid, Miss Potter, Miss Jefferson, Mr. Mc- Mahon. Standing: Mr. Romano, Mr. Allan, Mr. Northrup, Mr. Butler, Mr. Brooks. la ch oat S SE Measuring tuning fork vibrations: Nelson Pease, Robert Ander- son, Robert Hedin. Witty Colonel Brooks, an outstanding member of the chemistry staff, has countless references and has written books which we use in our study of the subject. Messrs. Reid and Northrup, no less capable, have their college degrees and experience with other travelers over the years. Chemistry deals with composition of materials and the changes they undergo chemically. Without knowledge of chemis- try we would have few materials with which to start our trek. Chemistry explains many strange occur- rences in nature such as precipitation and combus- tion. For the expert hunters in this field there is science review which furthers study of physics and general science presented by Messrs. Allan and McMahon. eeeeee DEPARTMENT Left to right: Denise Delivorias, “OSCAR”, Roger Willis. Physiology, a study of the human body and its functions, taught by Mr. Reid, ties in nicely with hygiene, the care of the body, which is taught by Miss Pott er and Miss Jefferson. The study of foods is an interesting phase of hygiene. Mr. Romano tips us off on the weather and trail conditions through his meteorology and physiography classes. Elec- tronics, an increasingly important study, deals with radio waves and electrons. Mr. Case is the instructor in this field. We now see how important sciences are on our trek. We are fortunate to have the facilities to accommodate them and the brains to absorb them. Chemistry test.

At sewing machines, left to right: Laura Misenheimer, Sandra Marston. Cooks and seamstresses would of course come in handy on our trek. Naturally they would be good ones if they trained in Tech’s Home Economics Department. To lead them we have well adapted guides. Mrs. Bailey, a new addition, (the name is new to her and she is new to us) loves swimming, sailing, and domestic activities such as knitting. She took a special economics course at New Jersey to widen her knowledge. Miss Miller belongs to many home economics associations including the National Voca- tional Guidance Association and the Adult Education Council. She enjoys traveling. Mrs. Parks, the seamstress, collects pewterware as a hobby and helps with the costumes for our annual Tech Tantrums as does Miss Borrner, the chef specialist, who also belongs to many clubs and is a professional cake decorator. Each has her college degree and each is well suited to her particular phase of instruction. Home economics is not only cooking and sewing, but includes home management as well. In this Left to right: Jean S. Bailey, Beatrice Miller, Helen Borrner, Goldie Parks. HOME ECONOMICS 16 SERVING MEAL Left to right: Eleanor Stephens, Dawn Roberts, Barbara Ridge- way, Arlene White. Serving is Joan Riendeau. class Miss Miller teaches the girls (no boys are welcomed) how to balance a budget, a science in itself, and how to tackle most domestic problems facing a married couple with a home. Both Miss Miller and Miss Borrner take charge of cooking classes. Girls in groups of four bake anything from popovers to apple pie, and can vegetables and preserve jellies in their individual kitchens. | In sewing classes miracles take place. Under the guidance of Mrs. Parks and Mrs. Bailey, girls transform thread, zipper, buttons, and yards of material into suits, dresses, or skirts on one of the many sewing machines. Pattern drafting is an art which few master. However, under the skilled teaching of Mrs. Bailey, the girls draw their own original designs or copy name brand designs, draw up patterns to their own measurements, and proceed to sew the result. With the modern equipment and the eagerness of young women who love homemaking, our Home Economics Department grows yearly. As we climb the stairs to the second floor we are greeted by hearty outcries. Hurrying to find the source of the clamor, much to our amazement we see only a discussion of the vital problems of the day in the history classes. We see eager combatants rising to hold forth with vigorous differences of opinion as the classes learn of the practical points of history. Many of our incoming freshmen are taking an orientation and social studies course to help them to grind through their initial year. These are the groups often seen passing through the halls of our Spring- field Museums or walking our halls attempting to straighten out the maze of corridors. When we become juniors we enter the United States history classes not only to become familiar with the cycle of events and passage of time for our nation but also to gain an understanding of current events and problems. Now we walk toward 231 where in economics Seated, left to right: Nancy Ludden, Gloria Hartzell, Roger Willis, Clifford Sias, Dominick Yacovone, Robert Couture, Charles Thurber, Joan Trombly. SOCIAL STUDIES Reardon, Miss Grady. Standing: Mr. Hannigan, Mr. Doane. the problems of our nation of capitalists are discussed and studied. In this class seniors become acquainted with the problems of business and commerce. Another senior history course, modern history, covers just about everything since the time of Columbus. We have two new guides in the history depart- ment this year, Miss Freidman and Mr. Hannigan. Miss Freidman who spends her working day in Room 231 came to Tech after teaching social psychology at Bay Path. She teaches’social studies, economics, and United States history here at Tech. In her free time she enjoys music, especially Dixieland jazz. Mr. Hannigan entered Tech this year after eight years of teaching at St. Michael’s College in Wi- nooski, Vermont. Mr. Hannigan, now teaching United States history, may be found in Room 224. We wish these newcomers to Tech’s fine social studies department, many happy years with us. a - 5 Org A aL if Sn te Atebh-e@tveertt Coe ACO = f ‘ se v rf eC cé-2 Mr. Hannigan’s social studies class meets State Treasurer Fur- colo, and Representative Thomas Gray, Seated, left to right: Miss Friedman, Miss ay 2, Cf te LC LIO of Jf. j Seated, left to right: Perry Best, Mary Kelly, Stanley Sprague, Miriam Allen. y btiija: BHU LF hy oO re | ” , y Vy at Standing, left to right: Bushey, Hentai own.

This is the extensive mathematics department which offers a wide range of studies. In the General Course are Mathematics 101 and 121 for freshmen and seniors respectively. College Preparatory students find their three years of mathematics taken up by Geometry 10C, Algebra 11C, Trigonometry C which is a half year course, and Solid Geometry, Advanced Mathematics, or Review Mathematics C. The Technical students have two different courses. In one are Algebra 3T and Geometry Principles in the first year, Trigonometry T and Shop Mathematics in the second, and Strength of Materials with Review Mathematics T in the third. The alternate course offers Geometry 10T, Algebra 11T, and Trigonometry T with Shop Mathematics or Strength of Materials for seniors. First row: Dy� Vigneault, D. White, P. Porowski, C. Debien, B.

They hold excellent degrees ranging from B. S. to A. B. S. in engineering and M. S. in civil engineering. We find them taking active part in outside activities as well. They sing in the choir, play the piano, hold positions in clubs and organizations, and participate in sports. . In this fascinating group we find Miss Miriam Allen, Mr. George Andrewes, Mr. Perry Best, Mr. Benjamin Bushey, Mr. Theodore Chase, Mr. Henry Hewitt, Miss Mary Kelley, Mr. Harold Schellenger, Mr. Stanley Sprague, Dr. Helen Theinert, and Mr. Arthur Woodworth. Through this course and these teachers our students set out well prepared for their following years.

MECHANICAL Among the high schools in America, Tech’s Mechanical Drawing Department ranks as one of the best. This subject is taught by men who are experts in their field and who participate in many outside activities. These superb guides, Mr. Davis, Mr. Mackenzie, Mr. Duffin, Mr. Bushey, and Mr. Reynolds, enjoy hobbies such as gardening, photo- graphy, and music, and are members of prominent clubs about Springfield. The freshmen familiarize themselves with and learn to manipulate such tools as the T-squares, compasses, triangles, and French curves. These novices also learn the fundamental rules of drawing and apply them to their own drawings, which pri- marily deal with the simple parts of machines. The juniors learn the methods used in drawing the surfaces of different geometric figures, which are the basis of sheet metal work. Later, these experienced Left to right: Mr. Hansen, Mr. Duffin, Mr. Biscaldi, Mr. Mac- Kenzie, Mr. Henry. DRAWING hunters are taught the principles of sectional draw- ings and apply this skill to the drawing of more intricate parts of machines, such as valves, yokes, and tool posts. Finally in the hands of the experts, the seniors learn the essentials of gear designing, a very interesting and complex phase of mechanical drawing. For the seniors who have special talents in designing, Tech offers a course in architectural drawing in which these students apply their drawing skill and knowledge of mathematics to the designing of beautiful homes. With this well-rounded education, many Tech- ites eventually obtain high positions in engineering firms and proceed to design and invent countless projects important in our world. Thus, Tech’s Mechanical Drawing Department gives its students the knowledge and the confidence that are required of a professional draftsman.

MACHINE SHOP Tech is unique in that it offers a full high school course for college and for work experience in five trades: mechanical drawing, woodworking, auto- motive engineering, machine shop, and electronics. The first project in machine shop is learning the names and functions of the lathe parts. Preparing pieces for the lathe teaches all the simple operations onit. Students begin with the simple projects such as screwdrivers and progress to the more complicated useful tools. Our print shop renders valuable ser- vices by printing report cards, permanent record cards, and other forms. Auto shop teaches per- severance through the medium of an automobile engine. Automotive theory is learned through taking an engine, capable of running, completely apart and reassembling it to running order. That our machine shop teachers are well-edu- cated, experienced, and well-rounded personalities is evidenced by their college degrees, both bachelors and masters; by their previous teaching in schools of Vermont and Connecticut, University of Massachu- setts, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology; and by their participation in such hobbies as mining, cutting, and mounting semi-precious stones, home workshops, and mountain climbing.

Francis Meade, Donald Rivette WOOD The guides through the wooded sector of our trek have many interests including fishing, hunting, and woodworking, not to mention directing our ever busy stage crew. Besides guiding Tech’s hunters, our woodshop teachers have taught in many other schools and have themselves studied elsewhere improving their professional standing through in- creased knowledge and added degrees such as Bach- elor of Science and Master of Education. From preliminary training in the simple pro- cedures of setting up a lathe, turning a rough piece of wood to exact measurements, beading, and rigid Charles Winslow, Walter Hansen, John Loiko SHOP specifications in general, the students progress to more complicated projects like inlaid bowls. In the pattern making shop a knowledge of the uses of wooden patterns in industry, and of the types of patterns is the first goal. Having mastered these ideas the pupils start actual shop practice. For those thoroughly interested in woodwork an advance course is offered which produces some really beautiful pieces of furniture. Tech is proud of this training program offering to all, whether college preparatory or general, the valuable experience of woodshop.

Class in design with Miss Roy. In the lodgings of the art department, we find facilities for classes in poster, crafts, design, freehand drawing, interior decoration, and fashion drawing. Under the able guidance of Miss Ida Roy and Miss Helen Norrgard, Tech’s maestros of brush and paint, students have the opportunity to develop talent along varied lines. Materials are available for instruction and experimentation with every medium within reach and reason. Those who are design-minded can create design masterpieces to their heart’s content. Into their schedule come block printing, textile work, abstracts, geometric shapes, and all sorts of imaginative crea- tions. For anyone talented in poster work, there is plenty of room for ingenious advertisement for the many and varied Tech activities. We are conscious of this group’s work on many occasions throughout the year. Looking to the future, some students prefer to plan interior decorations or to design ravishing outfits to dazzle any interested males. Planning to remodel your room? Or to create a wardrobe? You know where to apply. For any Techites who just plain like to draw, freehand drawing class is just the thing. Field trips out on the trail and an exhibition of monthly ‘‘bests’’, judged and shown publicly, are part of the regular schedule of this class. The crafts class offers students talented with their hands a good chance to prove their ability. Into this field come metalwork, leathercraft, weaving, and a variety of other crafts. In any predicament with yearbook, dance decorations, poster designs, or wardrobe planning, a helping hand will be gladly and expertly extended by either Miss Norrgard or Miss Roy. Miss Roy, as an artist herself, has excellent theories which help her students to master tech niques of brush, pen, paint, pencil, and ink. Her skill is an incentive toward improvement in student work. Miss Norrgard is well known for her prowess with materials for posters and displays, and stunning scenery for Tantrums.

Patricia Hanson + a : 2 4 TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL From the music department we hear the rumble of drums, blaring of brass, and the soaring of high voices drawing everyone to future entertainment and excitement. Looking in on this class we find a mass rehearsal in progress for one of Tech’s big shows. To the left we see the Boys’ Chorus numbering sixty voices, and the Girls’ Chorus of eighty, who perform for the P. T. A., in Tantrums, and in Tech Turns to Music. In the middle, getting ready for the grand finale, is our orchestra, grown in the last three years from eleven to thirty instrumentalists. Here too is the band of forty-two pieces which in addition to regular school activities as assemblies, games, etc. also played during President Truman’s visit and in various parades and outside concerts. Our band owes much of its city-wide popularity to long hours of after school practice and drill. The Tech Swing- sters, who are a selected sixteen piece dance band are also the backbone of Tantrums. Moving to the right we notice the Tech Chorale, our largest selected musical group of one hundred voices, which presents many fine renditions of classical and popular arrange- ments for the Christmas Assembly, Holy Week, and Graduation. In front is the Tech Choralette, a selected group chosen to participate in both school and community Christmas programs, and to sing for such organizations as the Motion Picture Council. At the tap of a baton, all is quiet, and Mr. Lee Crabtree, the guide and director, steps forward. An all-round musician, Mr. Crabtree not only holds two degrees in music education but also has worked under Fred Waring and directs the Nurses’ Chorus at Springfield Hospital. Frequently, he can be seen playing any instrument from the clarinet to the piano, or heard singing any part from bass to soprano. We salute this exceptionally fine, hard worker with the genial personality.

Bachelor of Science and Master of Education are the most prominent. One Bachelor of Arts degree belongs to Tom Carey. These expert guides also have num- erous interests in other activities than their teaching and coaching. Although spending much of their own time on teams and on building a good name for the school, they also find time for enjoyment of other things without com- pletely disrupting their personal lives. John Kalloch likes genealogy; Bill Lawler enjoys golf, tennis, hunting, and fishing; Milt Orcutt hunts, fishes, works in his garden, and directs a day camp; Tom Carey is active in the Ameri- can Legion.

To keep our bodies fit for the long, three year trek in Tech, gym is a required subject. The classes are taught by two highly trained teachers, Mrs. Richardson and Miss Gray. Miss Gray received her Bachelor of Science at Sargent in Boston University, Master of Edu- cation at Springfield College, and has done graduate work at Smith. Her hobbies are photography, reading, gardening, most athle- tic sports, and traveling. Last summer she traveled all over Europe. Mrs. Richardson, the other instructor, has her Bachelor of Science from Russell Sage and enjoys music, sports, and her little girl. After school sports are divided between these two teachers. Squad leaders from the after school club help conduct the classes. Skills and calisthenics are a part of almost every lesson, but conduct as well as physical ability is believed an impor- tant factor in every class. In the fall, feminine tigers are seen trouping up to the Armory for field hockey. Games are played in the gym when the weather is bad and for a short while after cold weather sets in. During the winter months the girls have self- testing activities and the grades are kept and compared from year to year. Folk and square dancing follow, providing the girls with lots of fun and a chance to invite the boys for a hoe-down. Modern dancing rounds out the dancing program. Next come the favorites: basketball, apparatus, stunts and tumbling, and volleyball. By spring, when tigeresses start going out to play softball, they should be pretty muscular and have their bodies as well as minds improved by this part of Tech’s Trek.

TY p | N G To help us keep our maps and notes neat and helpful, typewriting is taught by Miss Shea the typing guide of Tech. Miss Shea who has her Bachelor of Science and Master of Education degrees, last summer took a refresher course at Boston University. She has previously worked at Perkins Machine and Gear Company and taught evening school at Commerce. All this puts her in an excellent position to help her students understand how to apply typing to business, school, and everyday life. The course is designed to make the typewriter so familar that it can be used more quickly than a pencil or a pen. The mechanics of the machine itself are learned along with speed in the operation of it. Speed, rhythm, accuracy, and arrangement are learned by typing actual themes, notes, etc. Front row, left to right: Shirley Harty, Arthur Gaskins, Angelo Spanos, James Tranghese.

HIGH SCHOOL DRIVER EDUC Counte4y) ° AUTOMOBILE SALE 3 | Left to right: Shirley Flint, Shirley Harty, Gini Mould, Mr DRIVER ED. Every year the Juniors, both boys and girls, have their regular Gym periods interrupted for about four weeks to take a pre-driver course. In these classes the gym teachers provide instruction on the rules of the road and the mechanics of a car. After successfully completing the pre-driyer course by passing the written examination, these pupils are ready, in their Senior year, for training given in actual road operation of a car by ‘‘Chief”’ Walmer, driving instructor for the Springfield schools. When they have overcome their ‘‘shakes’’ and have become accustomed to the car, Mr. Walmer sends them on to the official state examiners. As the written exams have been passed before these pupils go to the Registry of Motor Vehicles, only a road test is given by the officials from that depart- ment. Graduates of Tech’s ‘‘drivers’ trek’’ pass. Left to right: Raymond Broboski, a) he BD Cowley AUTOMOBILE SALES Ce : ke . . Walmer. WARNER ACHIEVEMENT MEDALISTS Judith Beverly Skinner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edris Skinner of 68 Florence Street, has been awarded the Warner Achievement Medal for three years of conspicuous achievement in service to her school and her class, and in scholastic attainments. Judy’s happy combination of the qualities of orig- inality, steadiness, industry, and co-operativeness make her a deserving recipient of this honor. DONALD J. McLAIN JUDITH B. SKINNER Donald J. McLain, grandson of Mrs. Charles Freeman of 74 Boylston Street, is the other recipient of the Warner Achievement Medal. As class president, Council president, and patrol chief, Donald has displayed exceptional qualities of leader- ship and civic mindedness which, combined with his high scholastic record and personal integrity, have earned for him this high award. 28 THREE YEAR HONOR STUDENTS Congratulations go to these boys and girls who have maintained honor ratings throughout their three years at Technical High School.

SENIOR Having graduated from the ranks of both the novices and the experienced hunters, we are now expert hunters; much nearer our goal of capturing the Tech Tiger which symbolizes the spirit of Tech, the work, the pleasures, and the rich experiences gained. Our first milestone on the jungle route is a new type of class meeting, designed to combine business and pleasure. This “‘brain-child’’ of the class of ’53 gets off to a good start with a cartoon and genial Joe Visconti’s imitation of Tom Carey as he intro- duces the class officers and the business at hand. To climax this senior get-together are Cliff Monigle and Barre Toelken with their side-splitting comedy numbers. Another novel introduction is the use of live decorations (Ann Foster and Jean Payne as scarecrows) at our informal dance, ‘‘Harvest Ball’. Our fugitives from a hayfield really pep things up RESUME with a lively Charleston. En route in April is the semi-formal “‘Top Hat’. The ‘‘Sportsmen’’ rhy- thmically play as the dreamy couples dance the evening away in the transformed gym. Our class officers, Joe Visconti, president; Margie Hall, vice- president; Maggie MacDonald, secretary; and Judy Skinner, treasurer, seem to be particularly enjoying themselves. Also in April is our banquet at the Highland Hotel. Our senior class produces a cleverly worded class will and prophecy, and a nominal sum as a class gift. The ballot and Class Day, at which deserving seniors receive awards, are two of our final activities. With the Senior Prom and Graduation, having finally captured the Tech Tiger, we bid a sad but a farewell to the halls of Tech and the Tech rek. THE BIG DAY 85 co BOOK % for!

FRESHMAN FACTS LEADERS Left to right: Miss Grady, advisor; Thomas Laurino, treasurer; Deborah Schimmel, sec- retary; Robert Chase, president; Mr. Romano, advisor. November was a big election month for everyone including the freshman class. An assembly was held for the purpose of instructing students on election procedure, and the qualifications needed by candi- dates for the various offices. The next few days, everyone was busy affixing his John Hancock to the qualification papers. At another assembly the qualified candidates were presented to the rest of the class, and delivered their campaign speeches. This set off the election campaigns. Posters adorned walls, and slogans hung from buttonholes, belts, and anything handy. The conversation of the freshmen was aimed strictly at the election. At last the long awaited day arrived when each freshman voted for the man of his choice. The election results showed popular and well qualified Bob Chase as president. The other officers were Patricia Aldrich, vice-presi- dent; Deborah Schimmel, secretary; and Tom Laurino, treasurer.

A summer of hard work by Dick West, Executive Editor-in-Chief of Tech News, with the help of Editor-in-Chief Beverly Hotis, and many other departmental heads enabled the staff to publish a welcoming issue of Tech News for the first day of school. This was the first such issue in the history of the staff. The News course is set up in regular class form. Many of the periods are devoted to teaching good journalism. In addition, a new ‘‘Frosh’”’ training system has been set up. Mr. Black, advisor, holds after school classes for pupils who are interested in work- ing on the Tech News staff next year. This will provide trained personnel ready to join the News next fall. Seated front row, left to right: Phyllis Santaniello, Beverly Streeter, Rose Santaniello, Craig Preston. WISCla!

This box is used as a place for readers to put ideas, criticisms, or compliments on the work being done by the staff.

The greatest Tech show ever, took the audience on an imaginary visit from the Tropics to a New York Nightclub, North Carolina, and the Polar Regions. With a dramatic fanfare, the cheerleaders leaped through silver doors to open Tantrums X. Tech tiger cubs “‘Itchie’’ and ‘‘Scratchie” continued their usual mischievous deeds throughout the songs of Diane Ferver and Hank Larsen in jungle surround- Be, and Jerry Henderson’s interpretation of Agasu’s ance.

We also witnessed an exciting fight between seaman John Bellas and ‘‘Beau Brummel” James Foster. _ Hits of the show were talented North Carolina girls: Caroline Spivey singing folk songs, and her sister Frances narrating. Cliff Monigle and Barre Toelken outdid themselves with their hilarious comedy number. In the polar regions we saw toe dancers and a clever act on parallel bars; also dancing penguins and tumbling polar bears. The faculty’s Gay Nineties Revue was, naturally, enjoyed by all.

Sports Awards Senior Awards ASSEMBLIES Because of the schedule change our call to assembly was not heard as often this year as last. To make up for the lack of quantity, this year’s assemblies reached a new high in quality. Following are some of this past year’s outstanding assemblies. The Mem- orial Day Assembly featured some of the outstanding members of the class of 1952 in a moving tribute to the school’s fallen heroes. At the Senior Awards Assembly seniors. re- ceived rewards and commendations for their work at Tech. One of the outstanding Orientation Assemblies was the Boy-Girl Relations Assembly, featuring four seniors who attempted to solve some of the problems met by 10th graders. Shortly afterward the Why The Chimes Rang BOY-GIRL RELATIONSHIP PANEL 1952-1953 letter winners on the soccer and football teams were honored. Every three years at Christmas time the Dramatics Club and the Music Department join forces to produce “Why the Chimes Rang’’. Under the guid- ing hands of Mr. Doane and Mr. Crabtree the performers thrilled us all. The big political caucus of the year takes place in the form of the Good Government Assembly. The Student Council nominates eligible seniors who present their qualifications to the student body. This year that body elected Art Andrewes to represent Tech. To put on a successful assembly is a difficult task and all those who helped out ™ — . ree a this year deserve the highest praise.

One of the important organizations in Tech High’s Jungle is the Student Association, commonly known as the S. A. Although little is known about this group, they are responsible for the fair distri- bution of funds among the many organizations and activities which are active here. Let us take a better look at the board. Composed of faculty advisors and student representatives from the various classes and activities, it is headed by Dr. Gans with Mr. Henry Hewitt holding the purse strings. Among those receiving help from the S. A. are the three Perhaps one of the smoothest and most efficient organizations in Tech is the Student Patrol. The patrol was organized many years ago to guide traffic through the halls, to assure a neat lunchroom at the close of each lunch period, to help close our doors to unwelcome visitors during the day, and to assist Our advisors with our many class activities. Ea ch year the members of the patrol elect officers who, with the guidance of our advisors Mr. Jackson and Mr. Lynch, will lead_ them through the classes, the Girls’ Athletic Association, Tech News, Tech Tiger, Student Council, Student Patrol, Tech Store, Tech Tantrums, and the Music Department. It is interesting to note that the Student Council, Music Department, and Tech Tantrums are good sources of S. A. income. This year’s membership drive found the Freshman Class leading with 531 and the Junior Class coming in second with 408. This board gives needed financial aid for our Trek. STUDENT PATROL following school term. Don McLain, this year’s chief in charge of the patrol, has had the assistance of five captains and eleven lieutenants. Yet, without a worthy group of patrolmen to work with them, these officers would be unable to guide the patrol through a successful year. The sixty patrolmen on this year’s squad certainly have cooperated with their leaders and together they have created a truly great patrol for ech. Q Chief McLain and Tech’s Finest. As our supplies begin to run low, we pay a visit to the trading post, The Tech Store, to stock up on pencils, erasers, book covers, and rulers. We trekkers can find the trading post open each morning from eight o’clock to eight-thirty. During this time, the traders will be glad to sell us anything from decals to Tech banners. We can also buy air cushions, pennants, stickers, compasses, and Tech pins. Every Monday and Tuesday there is a sale on bus tickets, those essential little items we STUDENT COUNCIL Our student council is the clearing house for the trekker’s disputes and complaints. The group com- prising our council is elected annually and consists of seven representatives from each class. The advisor, Miss Reardon, directs the group, requiring that Roberts’ Rules of Order be obeyed precisely. One sees some hot arguments debated during the short meetings. Last fall the council elected from among them- selves a president, a recording secretary, and a corresponding secretary.

What would the stage crew do without the amiable Charlie Winslow, who is always brimming over with energy, to guide them? Numerous functions around Tech depend upon Charlie Winslow and his stage crew. These stage hands, besides taking care of the production of all our assemblies, do all the odd jobs around Tech. The largest chore which con- fronts these students who prodtice miracles is the production of Tantrums, which requires at least a month’s devotion of hard, enthusiastic work.

These students run miscellaneous errands for the regular office clerks who, besides doing such jobs as keeping attendance records, records of students’ programs, and ordering school supplies, are constantly bothered by having little things arise. For these they have student helpers. These students devote time from a_ study period which, besides helping the regular office staff, will benefit them in applying for future employment.

These students also have a choice of earning a little money or gaining school credits, as well as gaining many friends while acquiring knowledge by being members of the staff.

PRO MERITO SOCIETY SENIORS z vat JUNIORS ‘Knowledge is the one thing that no one can take from us’’, stated Dr. Gans at the annual induc- tion of all freshman Pro Merito students on February 18, 1953. Our principal, in commending the achieve- ments of these honor students, also praised the labors of the many other high guality students in the freshman class. The eighty-one who were added to the fold of the Pro Merito Society set a recent record for the percentage of new members in any one freshman class. At an earlier meeting, the one hundred and fifty junior and senior members elected Pat Moriarty, president; Leon Charkoudian, vice-president; Con- stance Northrup, secretary; and Jean Vancini, treasurer. 122 Traditionally, the Pro Merito students from all the schools in Massachusetts hold a state wide convention each spring. This year Technical High School was chosen for the annual meeting place. Pat Moriarty, our local president, presided over the meeting in which the delegates determined the society’s policies for the coming year. Also on the program were a tour of our school and recreation for the entire group. That Tech ranks with those schools having a high percentage of honor students is, we feel, an indication that our school is truly a school of high learning.

Many students earned membership by working on these projects in woodworking, home economics, art, and music classes. Other activities included membership in the Inter-school Council and aid to needy children everywhere. You can be proud of your part in this organization. Clifford Monigle, Savino D’Amato, Linehan. TECH TURNS This year Tech’s traditionally fine instrumental and vocal groups presented selections appealing to all ages and degrees of musical intelligence. Con- trasting with last year’s All-American program, this year Tech turned to the international level. Despite religious and political differences throughout the world, music is still a universal language. The orchestra opened the program effectively with a minuet, E-flat Serenade by Mozart, and Chaconne by A. Durand. There followed a program of familiar orchestral and vocal compositions, folk songs, and popular pieces, representing such great composers as Sibelius of Finland, Bach of Germany, and our own Rogers and Hammerstein. Participating groups were the Tech Chorale, boys’ and girls’ choruses, Orchestra Boys Chorus TO MUSIC and the Tech band. Featured were the Tech Choralette and a boys’ quartet which sang a humor- ous German number, ’’ Johnny Schmoker’’. Appeal- ing chorus numbers were Morley’s ‘‘April is in my Mistress’ Face’’, Chafe’s ‘‘Song of Galilee’, a South African number, ‘‘A-round the Corner’’, a Swedish rendition of “‘O Little Star in the Sky’’, Sibelius’ “Song of Peace’, and a medley called ‘Scottish Pipers’’. The band played stirringly the ‘‘World Peace March’, “Strains from Erin’, ‘‘Broadcast from Brazil’? and the Mexican march ‘‘Zacatecas’’. The whole theme for ’53 was built around the Lae by Whitney and Kramer, ‘‘No Man is an Island’. Chorale Quartet: Donald Rivette, James Denning, Richard LaFrance, Brad Chatfield; accompanist: Barbara Robitaille. 126 TECHS Hi-Y: To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character is the pur- pose of the Hi-Y, a club for fellowship, sports, and fun. Tech Hi-Y meets Wednesday evenings for Diversified activities: educational, social, and athletic. Membexs discuss teen-age, political, and college problems, and attend various conferences. Some meetings are exclusively of a social nature characterized by a feeling of friendship with many stimulating con- versations. Hi-Y officers are James Donovan, president; Roger Clifton, vice-president; David Leslie, secretary; Richard West, treasurer; and William Harris , Chaplain. Advisor Tom Candon says, ““Tech Hi-Y is a very enthusiastic group, co-operative, friendly, and fun to work with.”’ Political Science: This club is a newly formed group under the supervision of Miss Ruth Grady. The club took an active part in the November fourth election by assisting in clerical work, running errands, etc. for candidates of both parties. It has also represented Tech in the A. I. C. Model Congress and in the Connecticut Valley Debating League Assembly. Robert Barta, a club member club won fifth place in the Hamp- den County Voice of Democracy Contest. Physics: To give interested Techites a chance to explore and develop further their interests in the field of physics, Mr. Manning Case of the science department organized the Tech Physics Club. The club has three main aims: to expand interest in science, to acquire laboratory techniques, and to con- struct equipment and apparatus for school and personal use. With these aims the club has planned and carried out such activities as construction and repair of radios, amp- lifiers, and other physics and electronics equipment; and has undertaken field trips to see what is being done in the field of electron- ics and physics. The club officers are William Krupke, president; Neal Schermerhorn, vice-president; and Evert Lindgren, secretary. GEWIBS _Radio-Drama Club: “Okay kids! quiet! time’s flying . . . one minute .. . thirty seconds . . . okay, you’re on!”’ “Sh! we’re rehearsing too, you know... Now what was that line? Oh, yes...” By now, you, the reader, should be thoroughly confused as to what is going on, but you see it is just one of the regular Thursday meetings of the drama club. Here amid the usual confusion of promising young stars, our Techites learn what makes stage and radio dramas run. It is the many weeks of hard work that may enable our young enthusiasts someday to have the thrill of hearing, “Curtain going up!’ Tech Choralette is an extra curricular group of selected hard working vocalists who meet on their own time every Tuesday night in the music room. Of course under the direction of our own music maestro, Lee Crabtree, the choralette turns out only the finest of musical programs. This year the choralette brought sunshine to the Golden Age Club and delighted the Motion Picture Council and the P. T. A. with four inspiring programs. Choralette also sang with the band at the local junior high sch ools, performed in Tech Turns to Music and at the Western Massachusetts Music Festival in Turners Falls, and caroled at the Nativity Scene in Court Square. Chess Club: For two years the idea of reviving our Chess Club has been simmering in the heads of several people. This year the simmering has come to a boil and a chess club has been re-organized. Every Tuesday afternoon, from 3:00 to 4:30, the fifteen soon-to-be chess players gather in room 208. Here they join in an informal get-together, getting acquainted with other members and with the game. Mr. Newhall and the experienced players teach the new-comers. At the end of the year comes the big match to select the best of the club. Of course, ‘“‘to the winner go the spoils!’ 127 Photo Club— Kneeling, left to right: Angelo Passidakis, George Disc Jockey Record Hop Fox, Richard Weiner.

The ten members have been meeting twice a month to gain experience in printing, developing, and enlarging with the equipment in Tech’s own darkroom and chemicals supplied through the club’s treasury. Program plans also include lectures from the Eastman Kodak Com- pany and a project in toning pictures. G. A. A. The G. A. A., or Girls’ Athletic Association of Technical High School, is a very active organization which sponsors not only after-school sports and good fellowship for girls, but also an occasional dance for both girls and boys, as evidenced by this picture of the Disk Jockey Record Hop. Rifle Team Our school’s rifle team is made up of the Boys’ and Girls’ Rifle Clubs. This is the first year that the girls have had a separate club of their own. The clubs meet and shoot at the Trade School Rifle Range on alternating Wednesdays. “Two-gun Sprague’’ is the advisor for the club which provides Tech with its crack marksmen and women.

Tech provides for this with a com- plete sports program which includes competi- tion with outstanding high schools in Massa- chusetts and neighboring states. One of the more popular sports is football which re- quires brawn, brain, and speed from its performers. This year, as formerly, the Tigers were guided through a rigid schedule by Mr. Carey and his assistants, Mr. Ambrose and Mr. Loiko. Also upholding their share of the team’s burdens were managers Frank Morey, Richard Gladden, and Michael Visconti. Numerous injuries and a lack of experienced veterans obliterated Tech’s expectation of a victorious season; however, their spirit and stamina received commendation by all. Leading the attack for the Tiger eleven of 02 were Lloyd Lemke and Chet Boulris, a pair of hard working players whose excellent performances earned them positions on the All City football squad. Offensively the Bengals operated mostly from a single wing, but occasionally worked from the T to baffle —Boulris, 52, carries the mail; Munsell, 40, blocking; Charles 48. the opponents. Relying on teamwork and skillful tactics, the Tigers opened the season against Pitts- field; unfortunately a revitalized Shire City squad subdued a surprised Tech squad by a 39-0 shutout. In the following game, Chet Boulris imbued the Tech eleven with suffi- cient momentum to register a 13-0 triumph over Trade.

The Tigers renewed their victory chant with a 24-18 win over a stubborn Turners Falls team. However, a speedy offensive by Holyoke proved sufficient to beat Tech to the tune of 27-7. The Westfield Bombers continued to pull the Big Cat’s tail by a convincing 33-0 score. Regaining their stride, the Tigers exploded for three touchdowns in the fourth period to romp over the Classical Bulldogs, 21-6, and remain unbeaten in the Interschool League. With the city champion- ship at stake in the last and most vital game of the year, the determined Techites were overwhelmed 35-6 by a superior Cathedral eleven. With the season completed, sixteen of the twenty- eight varsity members are seniors. They include co-captains Dick Goldich and Frank Munsell, Isaac Best, Bill Ellis, Bob Conway, Bill Ashley, Bill Chaclas, Gib Hubbard, Larry Cuoco, Andrew Griffin, Joe Visconti, Robert Hughes, William Blan- chard, Frank Priest, Robert Kouril, and Leonard Malone. Other varsity participants who will tote the pigskin of ’53 are Richard Tavernier, Sam J uliana, Lloyd Lemke, Dino Sbalbi, Mico Di Lorenso, Chet Boulris, Emilio Cava, Richard Russell, Jack Trincer1, Bob Chase, Robert Tassinari, and Albert Belniak. Though seldom mentioned and over shadowed by the varsity squad, our Junior Varsity players well deserve to have credit bestowed upon them for their excellent sportsmanship and fine performances. The team had a successful year by downing Trade, Cathedral, and Westfield while losing only to Classi- cal for a season’s record of three victories and one defeat. With their performances serving as a preview prospects look bright and prosperous for the coming year. To all the coaches and members of both teams our sincerest congratulations.

BASKETBALL Jumping Johnny 132 Again, as always, Tech put out a fine team to compete in what is today one of the faster and more popular of the sports. Basketball is not only fun to watch and to play but also draws millions of fans annually to cheer their favorite teams all over the country. Annually Tech puts out exceptional teams to compete in this trying game which requires split-second thinking and endurance as well as muscular co-ordination. Again coached by the amiable Bill Lawler the Tech basketball squad battled their way almost to a championship position. December 5, 1952, started an exciting basketball season for the Bengals with a flashing 38-26 victory over Cathedral at the pre-season jamboree. After trailing by a point at the completion of the first half the Bengals soared back with 25 points to trim the Panthers. Continuing their marvelous tactics at Drury, the Bengals swamped Drury High in a decisive 60-29 victory. Marching over Lockwood High with a 79-46 victory the Bengals showed New London High some of that famous “Tech Spirit’? by leaving New London with a 74-57 victory behind them. After trouncing teams away from home the Ben- gals continued their winning streak by pulverizing Trade with a full court press that left Trade re- covering from a 69-47 defeat. Away from home again the Bengals once more were victorious as they shaded Pawtucket, Rhode Island High 68-63. No team seemed to be able to stand up to Bill Lawler’s boys. Back home again the Bengals breezed through their first Interschool double-header against Com- merce, leaving Commerce with wondering eyes and a 72-32 defeat. Marching on to Classical for a tough game, the Bengal sharpshooters pulled Tech ahead with a 56-48 victory; then on to a game with their arch-rival Cathedral. This game, filled with intensive pressure, was a close game, but the light shown on Tech as the Bengals squeezed by with a 33-31 victory leaving a frustrated Cathedral. Back at Tech, Commerce tried to get their last crack at the undefeated Bengals, but try as they would they could not stop that inevitable ‘“‘Tech Spirit” as it smothered them 64-38. On marched the Bengals to stop the Trade Beavers cold in the last quarter, in a nip and tuck game for the first three quarters, to a final score of 63-54. While the Beavers were still re- covering, the Bengals were on the other side of the bridge stifling the West Side 66-53. This game looked bad at first but the Tech team sprang back after a pep talk from ‘‘Uncle’’ Bill Lawler. Then came what could easily be called Tech’s “Waterloo”. Holyoke, in the last half, streaked ahead to dampen the “Tech Spirit”? by a score of 58-51. This defeat did not stop Tech for long for they sprang back for the closest game of the year against Classical. After the close victory of 50-49 over Classical, the Bengals ran headlong into another staggering defeat, this time with Cathedral. To avenge their previous defeat, Cathedral surprised Tech by overrunning the Bengals 67-64. The Tigers seemed to be in a slump for Salem High pulled away in the last quarter to score the Bengals’ third defeat : : at 70-66, leaving Coach Bill Lawler and his ex- 1 asperated apprentices the saddest bunch of people ‘ possible. Co-Champions of the Inter-School League, the He’s a juggler too. team had a good season and deserves high commen- dation for the way they upheld Tech’s reputation as a team to be reckoned with by all other teams.

Baseball, the most prominent spring and summer sport, steps into the limelight as warmer weather approaches. John Kalloch, our capable baseball mentor, and his assistant, Bill Lawler, led the Tigers through the almost even season of five wins and six losses in 1952. To open the season the right way, the Bengals walloped Trade 19-5. The most damaging blow of the tilt was a bases loaded double by Bob Avis which ‘“‘put the game on ice’’. Clutch hitting by Snyder gave him five runs batted in on two singles. Bill Chaclas was “‘hot’’ at the plate with five hits in six times at bat. Then the Tigers smothered Com- merce 17-8. The wonderful beginning came to an end when Pittsfield, despite the brave efforts of Caplette on the mound, handed Tech its first defeat by a 6-2 margin. A tremendous home run by Steve O’Brien did not offset loose play in the field and Classical was able to “‘cash in” and trim the Orange and Black 17-4. Tech retaliated by taking advantage of Cathedral’s miscues to defeat the Panthers 9-1. The second round of intracity play began as did the first. A creditable pitching performance by Hubbard along with a triple by Chaclas and a magnificently executed squeeze play by Germaine, which added two runs, enabled the Tigers to finish victorious over Trade 3-1. The number two was lucky for Tech and unlucky for Commerce: two doubles, two triples, and two home runs, the latter in the sixth inning by Caplette’s hitting the first, and one out later, Germaine’s hitting the other. This with the combined two hit pitching by Cap- lette and Lempke, spelled defeat for the Raiders as the Kallochmen walked over them 14-4. Ina seesaw battle against Hartford Public, Tech was unable to Germain safe on squeeze play against Classical. 134 Duke Snyder safe at Ist. vs. Trade hold a 6-2 lead in the final innings. Two big, scoring innings at the end for our opponents made possible S p R N G-| 95 ) their 10-7 victory. Returning hit for hit for four innings the Tigers then suddenly stopped moving. Classical, however, kept up a consistent fight and was thereby able to deliver us a 9-5 setback. Avis, Chaclas, and Germaine each banged out two hits against Cathedral’s pitching, but all in a losing cause. Fehnel, Hamill, and Hubbard on the mound for the Orange and Black were unable to check the Panther onslaught and fell to defeat before an 18-7 decision. The last game of the year ended far differently from the opening game of the season. Of four Tiger pitchers, Ellis, Caplette, Fehnel, and Cheetam, only the latter showed the necessary control. A triple by Chaclas was one of the in- teresting highlights of our 12-3 defeat at the hands of rival Holyoke. O’Brien and Markoski each had two hits and one run batted in. The third run was accounted for when Cuoco singled with a man in scoring position. The well prepared schedule which began April 21 and ended June 5 made the participants and spectators more aware of the varied opportunities open to Techites. The squad consisted of Bill Chaclas, Bob Avis, Irv Hamill, Archie Williams, Larry Cuoco, Bob Cheetam, John Anderson, Frank Munsell, ‘‘Red”’ Germaine, Steve Markoski, Gil Hubbard, Steve O’Brien, Dick Caplette, Paul Landry, Bill Ellis, Dick Fehnel, Duke Snyder, Frank Bauchiero, Dave Hackett, Ron Rondoletto, and Lloyd Lempke. These boys, holding the Tech spirit high, went through wins and losses knowing they played for the honor of Tech. ns ‘ang al om 4 fan ae ar } eres, =! 4.

Not to be outdone by our football heroes the soccer team rolled out its array of tricks against its adversaries. Coach John Kalloch, starting with an almost completely new team, developed a formidable squad. Compiling a season’s record of six wins, five defeats and one tie, Tech’s booters missed the city-championship by one goal to Classical’s unde- feated, untied squad by a score of 1 to O at Forest Park and took second place in the five team race. Tech dropped the opening tilt to West Spring- field, 1-0. The next two contests against Cathedral and Ludlow Tech won handily by 4-1 and 3-l respectively. Then Classical squeaked out its first one-goal victory from the hard-fighting Tigers. When the final whistle blew, Classical had split the uprights with two goals while Tech scored one. Both Commerce and Trade lost to Tech by scores of 1-0. The Beavers of Trade had been favored to take SOCCER Trumbull scores vs. Trade.

Cathedral, the youngster of the soccer league, fell before a murderous onslaught as Tech piled up seven goals against the Panthers’ one. After dropping a close one to West Springfield, the team played that game in which they lost the city title to Classical. In what might be called a post- season game with Commerce the Tigers, without the incentive and spirit that guided them through a hard schedule, could but tie the Raiders in a scoreless game. In another anti-climactic game Trade de- feated Tech by a score of 2-1. The squad, underclassmen primarily, had its star in Dick Gonyea , the second highest scorer in city competition. Playing on the 1952 squad were Paige, Enstrom, Gauthier, Gonyea, Murray, Hollis, Buffum, Frey, Rusak, J. Verellas, Kaplinger, Trum- bull, Hubbard, Ballard, Spellacy, Hutchins, Klett, A.

Two outstanding swimmers returned to head Milt Orcutt’s mermen. They were Larry Scheesher and Roger Clifton. Scheesher has established him- self among the top ten high school swimmers in the country in his perfection of the two hundred yard event although he is only a junior. Tech’s aquamen opened their schedule by meeting the University of Connecticut freshmen. Swimming out of their class against the power packed frosh, Tech was still able to place its two outstanding swimmers. Scheesher was second in the two hundred yard event and third in the one hundred fifty in- dividual medley. Clifton took two second places, one each in the fifty yard and one hundred yard freestyles. Final score was 61-10. The aquatics squad again went out of its class against the Springfield College freshmen. This was a fairly exciting meet for Tech as it kept pace with the frosh. Scheesher took laurels in the two hundred yard event and the backstroke. Two firsts, one in the forty yard and one in the one hundred yard freestyles, were won by Clifton. The meet was lost uM the last event when the college frosh won the relay. Seemingly content with tough opposition, the Tigers met Williston Academy. The All-American visitors completely outclassed Tech. They also broke two prep school records. Rex Amby broke the one hundred yard freestyle in 52.4 seconds. Their medley team finished in 1.40.2 minutes to break another record. Tech’s swim twins, Clift n and Scheesher, were the only winners for Tech. After swimming out of their class for three meets, the mermen started in their own class. The first Tiger victim was Holyoke. Clifton took honors in the forty and one hundred yard freestyles and Scheesher, a first in the two hundred yard freestyle. Pope won the one hundred yard breaststroke; and Left to right: Roger Clifton, Robert Berg, Richard Ortlinghaus, Jerry Murphy.

The Tigers subdued Classical as Tech’s aquatwins again flashed brilliantly in their respective events. Following events with Deerfield Academy, Classi- cal, and Holyoke saw the duo of Clifton and Scheeh- ser pacing the mermen. In the Holyoke meet, the Tigers positioned almost every participant in some event. At the State Championships, Gardner dethroned Tech as two year champion by a 38-34 margin. They were able to accomplish this in the last relay despite the efforts of Murphy and Hanson who picked up considerable yardage which had been previously lost. Scheesher broke the two hundred yard record by four seconds. a = Jules Saler in a Jacknife. 139 The three man team of Bannon, Clifton, and Scheehser placed third in the New England Tourna- ment. Scheesher nosed out Gordon Sellick of Maine for the two hundred yard title in 2.04.1 minutes. He was also third in the individual medley and Clifton was fourth in the forty yard freestyle. Privileged to swim at the Eastern Interscholastic Championships at Princeton, Scheesher won the two hundred yard event and Clifton was second in the fifty yard freestyle. Team members were Arnold Hanson, Robert Berg, Robert Altieri, David Young, Jules Saler, Roger Clifton, Richard Lieberman, David Pope, Douglas Bannon, Richard Ortlinghaus, Jerry Murphy, Emil Ludwig, Edward Salamano, David Wilson, and Larry Scheesher with Donald Rivette and William Harris as managers. Larry Scheehser HOCKEY Guided by coach Tom Carey, Tech’s pucksters faced a tough season and emerged with an impressive record despite the fact that they dropped the City League laurels to the Classical Bulldogs. The Tigers battled to win five and lose four. Tech started the season against their top oppo- nent, dropping a hard-fought contest to Classical by a score of 5 to 2. The Trade Beavers failed to find the nets at all as they were completely defeated 11 to 0. The next victims were the Cathedral Panthers. The newcomers to the league fell to Tech by one marker 3 to 2. Then the out-of-town clubs went into action. Holyoke made no headway as the Paper-City puckmen tangled with the Tigers. It was smooth ice most of the way with Tech coming out on top by a score of 6 to 0. Chicopee was no more successful against the high-rolling Techites, though they did score two goals to our seven.

This year the league operated in a different manner from last. Last year two rounds were played with the winner of each playing a playoff match for the Western Massachusetts championship. This year, with many more teams participating, only one round could be played. The first four teams entered a playoff series to decide the champion. In the first round Tech humbled Chicopee 2 to 0. Then two contests were lost, one to West Springfield by a score of 11 to 5 and one to Classical 7 to 6 as Tech gained a fourth place berth in the final analysis.

BOWLING One of the best participation sports at Tech is bowling. There are three teams: girls, boys, and faculty. Each of these participates in a local league. Among others at Tech the boys’ bowling team will soon be sporting the highly coveted chenille, indica- tive of the city championship. Under the guidance of Tom Carey the boys from Tech play in the inter-school league. This year they became city champs winning eight and tieing two. Two rounds of four matches each are played. Two games are played with Commerce, Trade, Cathedral, and Classical. Outside of the league Tech defeated Ludlow twice. Lenny Cutler not only pulled off the highest average for Tech but also was the top bowler in the city with a single string average of 96.9. Playing on the regular team were: Andrew Griffin, Frank Morey, Bob Cheetham, Tom Laurino, and Captain Len Cutler. headed by William Sitnik. The managerial staff was Left to right: Mr. Chase, Mr. Reed, Mr. Hewitt, Mr. Black, Dr. Gans, Mr. Northrup, Mr. Romano, Mr. Mackenzie. At press time the girls’ team had not yet entered into league play. However, the girls, coached by Mary Grey, bowl throughout the season by them- selves. Under the auspices of the G. A. A., about seventy girls participate. The five girls with the highest scores enter the inter-school tournament and play Classical, Cathedral, Trade, and Commerce. Many of this large group may be seen at the Apre- mont or Chestnut Bow! alleys from time to time trying out their skill. Many members of our beloved faculty also attempt the sport. We have two faculty teams participating in the Schoolmasters’ League. This league, made up of sixteen teams, is composed of men teachers from most of the area schools. Playing on the faculty teams are Doctor Gans, Raymond MacKenzie, George Reynolds, Herbert Northrup, Theodore Chase, Howard Reid, Henry Black, and Henry Hewitt. At press time the final results had not yet come in. 141 Left to right: Charlotte Johnson, Marie Vona, Barbara Chase, Dorothy Jenkins, Beverly Filley, Mary Lou Burgess, Mrs. Richardson. right: J.

TRACK A high-geared Pittsfield team rolled into action and handed our Tigers their first track defeat in five years in dual meet competition. An eleven point margin separated the two teams as the meet ended with Pittsfield 56, Tech 45. Rallying, the Orcuttmen then completed the rest of the season undefeated. Classical was buried 65-43 by the Tigers. Trade offered little opposition as they fell before Tech 39-14. Of eleven teams competing in the Western Massachusetts meet, Tech placed second. Drury, with 2614 points, beat our trackmen out for first place by 5 points. Classical of Springfield placed third, only one-half point behind the Tigers. The thin clad lads from Tech continued their supremacy with a convincing victory in the city championship. Tech, defending titlists, accumulated 49 2 3 points to chalk up their fifth win in as many years. Richie Clark posted the lone meet record in the shotput, topping the previous record of forty-five feet by two and one-half inches. Other Tech winners were Bob Vancini in the javelin throw, Ike Best in the high jump, and John Bellas in the pole vault. In the track events the Tigers placed two winners. Hugh Trumbull won the 440 yard run in 58.7 seconds and Dan Hickey took the laurels in the 880 yard run with a time of 214 minutes. Team members included Dan Hickey, Leon Hickey, Gus Chrisanthopoulos, Richard Hausamann, Richie Clark, Isaac Best, Hugh Trumbull, James Mears, Dave Wilson, James Stovall, John Bellas, Robert Kiley, Larry Scheehser, Richard Perkins, Robert Vancini, Richard Raymond, Garry Murphy, Peter Whitney, Arthur Ragland, Conrad Hesse, Harold Setian, Donald Brown, Andrew Griffin, Donald Truman, Arthur Gaskins, Bruce Stewart, George Sanderson, Robert Kenyon, John Holow- chuck, and Henry Sullivan who was manager of Milt Orcutt’s squad. 142 Richard Raymond, winner of the high jump. TENNIS Weather interference caused our tennis schedule to be curtailed. As a result, only three meets were recorded for the entire season. On May 16, Classical submerged Tech under a 6-0 decision. The following meeting with Classical also proved bad from our point of view. David Shaw made Tech’s lone tally as we again fell before our foes 5-1. The following couple of meets were postponed because of inclement weather and were never able to be rescheduled. Our meeting with Westfield on June 4 added another setback to our column. A close 3-2 decision enabled the opponents to carry the meet. Although going down to defeat, the faithful Tigers gave their best. Those always ready and willing to donate their abilities to Tech were Craig Preston, David Shaw, Howard Subnick, Richard Gould, and James Kocot. GOLF Golf, a fast growing sport among America’s youth, has taken its place as one of Tech’s top sports in the past few years. Under the expert guidance of Coach Tom Carey, our golf team took on its first opponents at Franconia Golf Course, meeting Chicopee. It was close all the way but Chicopee managed a few more points than the driving Bengals. Tech went on to set up a record of five wins, six losses, and one tie. This appears less impressive than it actually is. After a poor start Tech went on to win five out of its last six matches. Classical and Commerce fell to Tech and another city crown came to Tech. Playing on the team were James Grochmal, Jack Simpson, Joseph Megliola, Arthur Ouimet, Harry Crane, Charles Thurber, and Arthur Vallincourt. Grochmal chips to the pin. 143 Team: Preston, Subnick, Shaw, Kocot. nick: serving; Shaw: returning.

Tech’s Tigerettes are offered an extensive variety of healthful activities to keep them physically fit. Yes, our Physical Education Department is a popular spot, for here is found a sport to fit each person’s individual taste. Early fall finds the girls trudging up the hill to the Armory where sports are held until c old weather. As soon as the snow leaves, they again take to the Interpretive Dancing out-of-doors. There is plenty of room to enjoy games of soccer, field hockey, and softball. In the gym, basketball, apparatus, tumbling, badminton, and modern and folk dancing are taught. Those interested in a particular sport have the opportunity to participate after school, earning G. A. A. credits GIRLS’ SPORTS areata sna acta Important work that is very seldom recognized is that of the office cadets. These girls have the duty of recording attendance, preparing records, running Pep Squad 144 Field Hockey errands, and filling out mark cards, thus lightening the many duties of the instructors. ; This department plays an important part each ‘G) i R [_ S S p O RT S year in Tech Tantrums. Selections are made of girls who are interested and outstanding in modern dance and tumbling, or some ‘“‘specialty’’. These groups have added a great deal to the show and are eagerly looked for each year. Driving education courses are offered in connection with the gym classes. Driving theory is studied in the classroom. Upon completion of the course, students go out in the dual-controlled car under Chief Walmer’s supervision. In this way, experience and knowledge are combined in the effort to make our highways safer. As you can see, the Girls’ Physical Education Department plays an important role, not only as recreation and exercise during our trek, but as an integral part of many other functions. . eye i as Rane wee i faa Swimming Apparatus 145 rn i NU G.

Since its inception in 1885, it has expanded to a present day enrollment of approximately 850 full-time students. Some of the College’s major achievements are its Overseas Extension Divisions currently located at Bermuda, Dhahran in Saudi Arabia, and the Azores. These were established during 1950-52 with the cooperation of the United States Air Force. The most recent development at the College is its participation as the “advanced vanguard” in a nation-wide program being con- ducted by the Mutual Security Agency of the United States to better acquaint foreign student- workers with the functions of democracy by allowing them to work and study here. American International College is a member of the New England Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, and is recognized by the American Council on Education and the American Medical Association. It is also registered by the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York. 163 Compliments of A FRIEND LANDEN SON Third National Bank Building Ninth Floor Springfield, Mass.
