SPCC, (U U - LOW ' ' 1 7 ton We, the students of Worcester Polytechnic Institute, respectfully dedicate the 1949 PEDDLER to Dr. Percy R. Carpenter. Doc, as he is known to all on the Hill, has long been a familiar figure on campus. As a result of his untiring efforts. Tech can boast of one of the best small-college athletic programs in New England. In the program there is opportunity for every student to participate, regardless of individual abil¬ ity. Consequently, interfraternity and interclass competitions, together with the varsity sports, keep Doc ever-busy with the tasks of arranging schedules, supervising all activity, and try- ing to keep within a modest budget. Truly, Dr. Carpenter has done much for Tech. It is with deep gratitude that we dedicate to him this, the 1949 PEDDLER. ill hmm _irj rj ■ i i | a m HI mmmw k I j SkSBsB J ‘■ ' jfrm p5|Elpi3i 119 ■I N Ifi This is the story of the event¬ ful life of Joe Hypoid, Bachelor of Science. Joe came to Wor¬ cester Tech in March, 1946, through the courtesy of a grate¬ ful government and Public Law 346. He had recently completed a world tour which had fur¬ nished him with an unslakeable thirst, a huge collection of war stories and enough olive drab clothing to last for years. When Joe was discharged, he realized that three choices were open to him. He could write a book about his experiences, write a big thick book about Eisenhow¬ er, or go to school. Since Joe was ony a semi-literate at best he passed up the publisher ' s millions and enrolled at W. P. I. Joe spent his first week at Tech filling out the V. A. ' s forms and answering Dr. Jones ' fool¬ ish questions. He was told that he was a member of the Class of ' 49B which bothered him un¬ til he learned that the B referred not to his blood type but to the fact that there were 57 members of the Class of ' 49A who had entered in Octo¬ ber and would have the sum¬ mer off while he slaved to catch up to them. Joe spent his freshman year in Sanford Riley Hall which certainly did his stomach no good, although he is proud of the fact that he once got away with an extra piece of butter. The upperclassmen regaled Joe with tales of the fabulous Dutchy Masius. Joe, how¬ ever, was not properly awe¬ stricken by the great man. He found Physics confusing and the good Doctor amusing. Fraternity rushing came along and Joe was a little be¬ wildered by the manner in which everyone was so nice to him. He decided that these fraternity guys must see what a good personality he had. When Joe heard about Steve Ucich being President of the Class of ' 49A, he decided that he was entitled to one too, so he went out and elected John Hawley President and Ed Dion Vice-President of ' 49B. The sophomores took one look at the size of the Forty- Niners and decided that there would be no hazing. Class spirit could not be allowed to die this easily, so Joe helped pull the Class of ' 48 through Institute Pond in the Rope Pull and that very night he triumph¬ ed again in the Tech Carnival. That summer session in 1946 is a term that will live in infamy. The only event worthy of men¬ tion is the very successful Frosh picnic at Green Hill Park. This was held on July 27, and featured a softball game for the championship of nothing. The Applegate Apple-polishers soundly trounced the Carpenter Carpet-baggers by a score of 27 to 26. Joe Hypoid ' s name can be found in the box score near the bottom of page three. Near the end of the summer, Gino Santandrea was chosen to receive the Skull trophy as the outstanding member of the Freshman class. Gino was also elected President of the Class of ' 49 with John Hawley as Vice- President. In the fall of 1946, Tech had a rather impromptu footba ll schedule. Although Joe Hypoid failed to survive the first cut as a waterboy, the Class of ' 49 was well represented. On the team were: Harry Melden, How¬ ie Green, Ted Layton, Ken Muccino, Gino Santandrea, Dan McQuillan, Mai Ferson, Dean Amidon, Jim O ' Regan and Joe Winslow. Joe Hypoid began his sopho¬ more year with the firm resolu¬ tion to teach these freshmen a thing or two. After all, the Classes of ' 49A and ' 49B had been combined to form the present Class of ' 49 and this made quite a formidable force. All Joe ' s efforts in the rope-pull went for naught when the rope broke several times. The in¬ formal brawl which resulted ended in a draw. In the Tech Carnival the judges gave the nod to the freshmen for their mimic of a Henry Morgan show over the Forty-Niners ' outstanding pro¬ duction, Progress in Science. On the basketball team that year were Steve Ucich, Russ Norris, and Russ Bradlaw, while Dick Olson and Pete Kahn were among the swimming stars. Shorty Sherock ' s orchestra played for the Interfraternity Ball on February 7, 1947, which was the most successful formal since pre-war days. Joe s name doesn ' t appear on any of the spring sports squads, but several of his class¬ mates achieved that honor in their sophomore year. Frank Sanella s track team was graced by Dave Brown, Brad Hastings, A1 DeLoid, Clayton Roberts, George Howe, Sid Madwed, Phil Silvers and Ed Dreschel, while Bill Carlson, Steve Ucich, Jim O ' Regan, Don Shattuck, Fred Jenkins and A1 Hapgood were among Charlie McNulty ' s minions. Joe Hypoid, pride of the Forty-Niners, returned to Wor¬ cester in September of 1947 to begin his junior year. Joe really felt that he had arrived now. He was an upperclassman now and, except for a few misgiv¬ ings he had about that rugged junior year, Joe felt pretty good about things. Worcester Tech had another winless football season in ' 47 but the team showed tremen¬ dous improvement over recent years. Harry Melden, Jim O ' Regan, Howie Green, Ken Muccino, Ed Carpenter and Ted Layton were among the stand¬ outs from the Class of 1949. Tau Beta Pi chose A1 DeLoid, Mai Ferson and Jim O ' Regan as their junior members in their fall election. Pete Kahn, Dick Olson and Sid Madwed were mainstays of the swimming team and Bob Carlson and Steve Ucich starred on the basketball floor. Jim Peepas and Pete Kalil were co-chairmen of the very successful Junior Prom which was held in the spring of 1948. The Tech News was head¬ ed by Joe Lemire and A1 Letour- neau as Editor-in-Chie f and Business Manager respectively. Also on the staff were Mai San¬ born, Fran Bigda, Bill Julian, Gino Santandrea and Hugh Robinson. Skull chose the following from among the Forty-Niners: Jim Adams, Willson Applegate, Bill Carlson, Bob Carlson, A1 DeLoid, Ed Dion, Sid Madwed, Harry Melden, Ken Muccino, Jim O ' Regan, Jim Peepas, Gino Santandrea and Don Shattuck. The Forty-Niner ' s senior year began in the fall of 1948. This was what Joe Hypoid had been waiting for. This was the final year, the gun lap, the time when one could settle back and enjoy life at the Institute. They won ' t flunk a Senior will they? Class officers for the Senior year were: Jim Adams, Presi- J. S. ADAMS President J. O ' Reagan Vice-President dent; Jim O ' Regan, Vice-Presi¬ dent; Harry Melden, Treasurer; Steve Ucich, Secretary. The football team gave evi¬ dence that Tech is ready to emerge from its wartime reces¬ sion. Howie Green and Harry The Horse Melden captained the team and Jim O ' Regan and Ed Carpenter were the other seniors. The Forty-Niners were repre¬ sented on the basketball team by Captain Steve Ucich, Russ Bradlaw, Russ Norris and Bob Whitey Carlson. Dick Olson, Pete Kahn and Sid Madwed finished up their long careers on the swimming team. These three Forty-Niners have piled up a lot of mileage in Frank Grant ' s tank. The Masque is another group which has become increasingly active in recent years. During the Class of 1949 ' s span they have presented Whistling in the Dark, The Male Animal, Ten Little Indians, and Com¬ mand Decision. Joe Hypoid ' s stay at Tech has been indeed an eventful one. When he entered, the last remnants of the Naval occupa¬ tion forces were still to be seen skulking around the campus, but as he prepares to leave, the trade school of treasured mem¬ ory seems to be back on a secure peacetime footing. School spirit is on the increase and the school ' s teams bid fair to emerge from their athletic doldrums. Several old traditions were revived during the Forty- Niners ' senior year. Chief among these were the Sports Banquets intended to foster fellowship and to reward Tech ' s athletes. Also several new organiza¬ tions were formed on the Hill. A chapter of Pi Delta Epsilon, national college journalism so¬ ciety was formed. The highlight of the year, was perhaps the founding of the first and only chapter in this country of the I. H. E. E. This ancient and honorable or¬ ganization is a very select and secretive group of Electrical Engineering students who hold joint meetings weekly in the nearest joint. H. MELDEN S.

Permanent Mailing Address: 22 Grompian Rd., Kowloon, Hong Kong JU The Class of ' 50 assembled at the portals of greater learning for the third time this last September. At that time, we boasted a class of two hundred twenty-nine—the largest on the Hill. This number is a drop from the number in the class when we arrived as Fresh¬ men in ' 46, but is slightly greater than our Sophomore roll call. There are many among us who have returned to Tech during these three years to re¬ sume studies started with other classes before the war. At the beginn ing of this year, the class was represented in the Physics Department by five students, in the Chemistry Department by forty Chemi¬ cal Engineering students and six Chemistry students, in the Electrical Engineering Department by sixty-six members, in the Mechanical Engineer¬ ing Department by ninety men, and in the Civil Engineering Department by twenty-two members. There were eleven students from foreign lands with the class at the start of this, our Junior year. This year was started with a new feeling of achievement, for we had passed the halfway mark and could legally consider ourselves upperclass¬ men. No longer could we compete in Freshmen-Sophomore competitions, for those were well behind us. We had succeeded in presenting the prize-win¬ ning skit at the Tech Carnival, both Freshman and Sophomore years, and in winning the soccer game in our Sophomore trial, but in the long run, the sands of time and fate were not kind to the Class of ' 50 in the Goat ' s Head Competition. Our first year, Jack Brierly was elect¬ ed President; Walter Keyl, Vice-Presi¬ dent; Tom Stack, Secretary; and Harold DeCarli, Treasurer. Ed Judd repre¬ sented us on the Tech Council, and Hank Baker was elected to the post of Class Historian. The Goat ' s Head Competition was highlighted by the rope pull which was called a draw despite the obvious superiority of the Class of ' 50. The reason for the draw was the rope itself, which had never felt real brawn before and just couldn ' t take it. After the third break, the pull was abandoned. Our Sophomore year got under way with the re-election of Jack Brierly for President. Paul J. Brown was elected Vice-President; Bruce M. Bailey, Sec¬ retary; Paul May, Treasurer; and Robert Atherton and Walter Keyl, Tech Coun¬ cil Representatives. This was the year of two hundred and eleven classmates; a prize-winning skit, The Commodore —President of Hypothetical Tech, the year of victory in soccer; and a heart- breaker, clothes-drencher of a rope pull. And then came the beginning of the Junior year. The frivolities of class competition was left to two very ener¬ getic lower classes; Frosh beanies were seen on campus again. Jack Brierly, Paul Brown, Bruce Bailey, and Paul May were re-elected as President, Vice- President, Secretary, and Treasurer respectively. Walter Keyl and George Barna were elected as our Tech Coun¬ cil Representatives. G. Barna, D. Danielson, D. Dodge, G. Engman, S. Friedman, M. Horton, F. Jurczak, and W. Keyl were nominated to Tau Beta Pi. We stopped for a breather at the end of February with a precedent-setting class smoker. Attendance was gratify¬ ing and a good time was had by all. Practically the whole campus turned out for the Junior Prom held in late April. John Cocker and Neil Crowley led that event to succes as Co-chair¬ men. The formal seems to be the beginning of the end, however. Spring fever is setting in with mass epidemic propor¬ tions as our Junior year draws to a close. May the coming year be as en¬ joyable as these last three have been. JUNIORS Achramowicz, Thaddeus F., 65 Houghton St., Wor¬ cester 4 Ackerman, Carl F., P.O. Box 689, New London, Conn.

Ably led by Andy Freeland, Presi¬ dent; Richie Howard, Vice- President; Frank MacPherson, Treasurer; and Andy Ander¬ sen, Secretary, we had a sound basis for believing that it could be done. In addition, we felt that our class was also well represented on the Tech Coun¬ cil by Pete Groop and Jim Macy. Within a week after the start of the fall term, the Sophomores drew first blood by trouncing the Freshmen in the Paddle Rush. The close co-operation displayed by the victors was a thing of wonder to the be¬ fuddled neophytes. The chief instrument used in winning by the Sophomores was the war cry, “Sea Hawk, used when any of the gladiators of ' 51 were threatened by the bible bri¬ gade. Organization was once more the dominant theme as our chanting Rope Pull Team haul¬ ed the boys of ' 52 through the muck of Institute Pond in vir¬ tually record time. The icy chill was not altogether new to some of the Freshmen, since they had also been baptized under the hazing procedures rejuvenated by the Class of ' 51. The first stirrings of life from the Beanie Battalion was evi¬ denced in the inter-class foot¬ ball and soccer games. A fight¬ ing Sophomore football team was edged 13-12, while the Frosh booters held their rivals to a 2-2 tie in an overtime soccer tilt. On an even wider scale, the Sophs added to their laurels by annexing the Inter-Class Bas¬ ketball crown, knocking the younger set out of the tourney in the opener and then going on to a triumph over the Juniors in the final. Although there are undoubt¬ edly some very fine thespians in the Class of ' 51, they kept their talents well hidden in the Tech Carnival, the honors in which were swept by the San¬ ford Riley Sock and Buckskin Society. But even though the Sophomore production was somewhat short of perfection. the judges seemed quite reac¬ tionary in selecting an ancient silent movie in preference to an up-to-the-minute television broadcast in which the coveted Goat ' s Head was publicly dis¬ played with only a few timid Freshmen voices raised in pro¬ test. Having previously won the bowling match, the Sophs placated the Men of Masius by allowing them wins in both the rifle and swimming meets. Alas, these were hollow victories in¬ deed, for the Class of 1951 later clinched the Goat ' s Head in a decisive Track victory. Looking ahead to next year, we hope further to stimulate healthy inter-class competition under the leadership of our newly elected officers: Rick Ferrari, President; Richie Howard, Vice-President; Frank MacPherson, Treasurer; and Andy Andersen, Secretary. Pete Groop and Carl Johann- son are our Tech Council repre¬ sentatives, while our Goat ' s Head committee consists of Bob Wolff, Mike O ' Neil, and Charlie Lorenz.

Before After Pall bearers needed as Frosh cop Tech Carnival GlcM h Nineteen fyiffty - !W Last autumn, as has happened for 83 pre¬ vious autumns, a new freshman class appeared on the campus of Worcester Polytechnic Insti¬ tute. But this class was different—this class was outstanding; this was the Class of 1952. We soon became acclimated to our new surroundings, and even added some local color of our own by wearing red beanies and black bow ties. Having passed our first Physics tryouts with flying colors, we looked around for new fields to conquer. Our first skirmish with the Class of 1951 was in the Paddle Rush. From this mad melee of mangled men, the Sophomores emerged vic¬ torious, but only because of their previous ex¬ perience along this line. Next came the Rope Pull, a memorable occa¬ sion for many reasons. The Sophomores won the Rope Pull itself, but it is the few hours afterwards that will be remembered by many unfortunate motorists, policemen, and near-by residents. With the guidance and help of several upperclassmen, we formed a snake¬ line the length of the rope; and proceeded to wend our winding way down Salisbury Street, through Lincoln Square, and back up Highland Street to Tech. The next morning the rope was found hanging from a few of the Institute buildings—to dry, of course. Then came the football game! And it was a glorious day for the Class of ' 52! After two hours of battling. Coach Dan McQuillan ' s team of Freshmen walked off the field the winners. 13 to 12. The same afternoon, on the soccer field, ' 52 ' s band of fearless men held the vaunt¬ ed Sophomore team to a tie. Our basketball team bowed out in the first round of the inter-class basketball tournament, but not before we had succeeded in creating quite a stir in the basketball fashion world. The bowling team also went down to defeat at the hands of the Sophomores. In swimming and rifle, however, it was a different story. The Class of 1952 proved too much for the Sophomores to handle, and we scored decisive victories in both events. As a result of the competition thus far, the Sophomores have managed to garner enough points to legally possess the Goat ' s Head. This doesn ' t mean that we will stop trying, though, and before “finis is written to another year at Tech, the Sophomores will know that they have been in a battle.

As in the past, the policy of the News is to report weekly social events, athletic contests, club and class functions, and any other in¬ teresting reading matter to the students, faculty, and interested alumni of Tech. During the war and up to this year, the News had been pub¬ lished bi-weekly, but this year ' s staff successfully made the Tech News a weekly publication once again. Not only is the Tech News now on a weekly basis, but, because of the ambitious ef¬ forts of its capable staff, the cov¬ erage and general appearance has been improved and the finan¬ cial status of the paper has been made more secure. The Tech News is a member of the Intercollegiate Press and the Associated Collegiate Press, both of which are composed of the more active college news¬ papers in the country. The merit ratings and criticisms offered by these associations have been helpful in making a more success¬ ful paper. The Editor-in-Chief for the past school year was Joseph E. Lemire. The Managing Editor was Mal¬ colm A. Sanborn; Feature Editor, Gino J. Santandrea; News Editor, Francis J. Bigda; Secretary, William A. Julian; Sports Editor, John K. Mullaney; and Business Manager, Alfred L. Letourneau. Scandal 9nc ifUViated It is the sincere hope of the PEDDLER Staff that every member of the student body will be more than satisfied with the ' 49 PEDDLER. It is your yearbook, and the Staff has done its utmost to make it interesting to all who read it. At the PEDDLER Assembly last fall it was asserted that the 49 PEDDLER would be bigger and better than ever before, and, at the same time, a third cheaper than last year. The chief pur¬ pose of the assembly was to interest Tech men in buying the book. The fact that over one hundred-fifty more copies were sold than in the previous year indicates the successfulness of the as¬ sembly. There were three reasons which made it possible to sell the yearbook for only four dollars as compared with six dollars in 1948. One was, as already mentioned, the greatly increased circu¬ lation. Another was a nine hundred dollar appropriation from the school. The third reason can be attributed to the fine work done by the advertising staff in securing over $2,000 in adver¬ tisements. It would be unfair to cite any one man for his work on the PEDDLER. Everyone from the Editor down to the lowliest ad chaser or writer has worked conscientiously and well to give you what was promised—the very best PEDDLER possible. AdUuftb .... Pe p i .... Rufflx .

The strongest and most active link be¬ tween the student body and the faculty is the Tech Council. Its main object is to further the interests of the Institute in all possible ways, and its existence on the campus is a true picture of democracy in action. The Council is composed of a president, two representatives from each class, and two faculty members. The president is a senior elected by the entire student body, while the remaining members are elected from their respective classes. The ex- officio members are the presidents of classes, clubs, and other organizations on the Hill. Meetings are usually held bi-weekly, but, if necessary, they are held more often. At these meetings the Council discusses and attempts to solve in a co-operative and efficient manner all questions, prob¬ lems, and complaints brought to its at¬ tention. In addition to serving as a guid¬ ing body, the Council has control of many of the undergraduate activities. It has the power to establish election dates for all classes, assumes the direct control of all freshman hazing activities, and sponsors college rallies and dances. Thus, all student activities are brought under the control of a central organization. A co-operative and unified action is brought about by this combination of faculty and students when questions or problems are brought before the Tech Council. First Row, left to right: H. Althen, W.

A. at Worcester Tech is primarily a service organization operating without re¬ ligious discrimination in the behalf of all Tech men. The services performed by the S. C. A. are numerous. Each week it sponsors an assembly in Alden Memorial for the entire student body. The object of these assem¬ blies is to provide information and enter¬ tainment, promote Christian thought, and further Christian ideals. Among those in¬ vited to speak are local clergymen as well as authorities in the fields of education, world politics and science. Each year, the S. C. A. sponsors the Tech Carnival, a dramatic competition between the Freshman and Sophomore Classes. All acts presented at the Carnival are written on campus, produced and performed by the students and members of the faculty. Each year, also, the S. C. A. is responsible for Freshman Week. During this first week of school, opportunities for discussion, enter¬ tainment, and refreshments are provided to make the freshmen feel welcome and at home. At this time, all the new men are presented a handboo k—the Tech Bible— and a blotter. During this school year, the S. C. A. under¬ took the operation of the Canteen in the Gym, and ran it in conjunction with the Coffee Shop in the Commons. Near the middle of the year, with the backing of the school, the S. C. A. further expanded and opened Riley House as a student center. Games were provided, and the Coffee Shop was set up there as part of a large Canteen. All profit from sales goes back into the upkeep and improvement of the house. Riley House will be maintained as a student cen¬ ter until such time as a permanent center may be built. The local S. C. A. is affiliated with other Christian associations in New England and throughout the world, and its policies are guided by these larger organizations. £. Q. ).

CAMERA CLUB In line with the Camera Club policy of maintaining a complete and up-to-date darkroom, the club purchased a new print-washer which has done much to speed up developing. Thus the darkroom with all its excellent facilities con¬ tinues to serve as an ideal place for amateur Tech camera fans to further improve and enlarge upon their photographic skills. Of great interest to the members was the program of lectures held at the monthly meetings. Among these was a lecture on a phase of photography which has won many new enthusiasts—namely, color photography. The talk was illustrated with several colored slides and samples of the Do ' s and Don ' ts of color photogra¬ phy. At another meeting, cameras M m i I l | 1 1 p.} MT Jr | J I I pn ■ ' 1 k.

Snow photography, appropriately enough, was the subject of a Win¬ ter meeting. A nationally known authority on the subject, Mr. R. W. Wagner, of the Norton Company, was the guest speaker. Still an¬ other subject was the practical art of retouching negatives and prints. Thus the Camera Club con¬ tinued its high status by carrying through a well-rounded program of photographic activity. Officers of the club for the year were as follows: Frank Ataman, President; Ray Remillard, Treas¬ urer; and Vartkes Sohigian, Sec¬ retary. RADIO CLUB: First Row, left to right: E. R. Drechsel, R.

The Radio Club has now fully recovered from the effects of the slump caused by the wartime shutdown of all amateur transmit¬ ters, and has enjoyed a profitable and successful year. The well-balanced program of activities pre¬ sented by the Club has attracted a great deal of interest. The powerful transmitter operated by the Club under the call letters W1YK has enabled the members to hold con¬ versations in code with fellow amateurs in many countries all over the world. Much work has been done on a new phone transmitter that should be soon completed and put on the air, en¬ abling the student opera¬ tors to talk with similar groups in colleges all around the country. In addition to all this work, the members of the Radio Club have found time to conduct classes for all those interested in learn¬ ing the radio Morse code. As a result of these class¬ es, several Tech men have obtained their Federal licenses during this past year. To assist in this work, the Radio Club has acquired a new automatic code recorder-transmitter. The officers elected for 1949 were: Robert Smith, President; Clayt Roberts, Vice-President; and Robert Miller, Secretary-Treasur¬ er. The non-elective po¬ sition of Chief Operator was held by Clayt Roberts. Ma tefri the “BOB SMITH.CLAYTON ROBERTS OUTING CLUB: First Row, left to right: N. Taylor, W. Dick, J. Skidmore, J. Peepas.

In the past this group has participated in a most active winter sports program, but this year, due to a mild winter, they were unable to organize any meets with neighboring colleges. How¬ ever, although the club was unable to hold any official meets, many of the members per¬ fected their skills on nearby slopes when the weather permitted. During the spring and fall, the club entered into other activities such as hikes and dances which were organized by various clubs in the Intercollegiate Outing Club Association. Near¬ ly every college in the East belongs to this association. The officers for the past year were: Vernon Russell, President; Max Underwood, Vice- President; Donald Story, Secretary; Franklin P. Emerson, Treasurer; and Joseph E. Skid¬ more, Social Chairman. Baker, Archibald and Stoughton at Mt. Sunapee The Nautical Association was founded in 1936 as an informal club for sailing enthusi¬ asts. For the next two years the club was one of the most exclusive clubs on the campus, admitting only a few new members each term. In 1939 the club received official recognition from the school and took its place with the other organizations on the Hill. The Nautical Association is a member of the Intercollegiate Yacht Racing Association. Last year the association received a new impetus through the acquisition of two new twelve and one-half foot Dyer-Dhows. Until then, the members had very little chance for regular practice. The members have a racing course at Indian Lake where the twenty-five active members practice for races. In addition to participating in races, the members held regular meetings to receive in¬ struction in nautical matters and study racing rules. Professor Edward C. Brown and Mr. Albert E. Rockwood have been faculty ad¬ visors to the association. At the beginning of the year the following officers were elected: John Pierce, President; William Dewey, Vice-President; Floyd Norton, Secretary; Lawson T.

Billy Grogan Waltzing at the Newman Semi-Formal” The Newman Club, which takes its name from John Cardinal Newman, prominent English churchman, was or¬ ganized in 1915 by Dr. Charles J. Burns for the purpose oi promoting Catholic culture and Catholic fellowship among the students of the Roman Catholic faith. The club meets monthly during the school year and talks by well-known Catholic clergy and laymen are usually a feature of the meetings. Early in the year the club held a very interesting joint meeting with the Newman Clubs of Clark University and Becker Junior College in the Janet Earle Room. Father William L. Lucey, from Holy Cross, spoke on The International Society. The Annual Communion Breakfast was held on February 13th in the dining room of Sanford Riley Hall. The at¬ tendance, over eighty, was the largest in the history of the club. One big affair of the year is the annual Newman Club semi-formal dance which is held jointly with the Newman Clubs at Clark University, Worcester State Teachers College, and Becker Junior College. This year the dance was held at Worcester Tech ' s Alden Memorial Auditorium and the large attendance of members from all clubs made it very success¬ ful. This year’s very capable slate of officers were: James F. O ' Regan, President; Harold F. DeCarli. Vice-President; and Francis H. Fay, Secretary-Treasurer. NEWMAN CLUB: First Row, left to right: H.

With this motto before it. the Cos¬ mopolitan Club was organized in 1909, with the objective of promoting better understanding between people from different parts of the world and the people of the United States. Membership is open to everyone interested. This year there was a large membership consisting of foreign students. American students, and members of the faculty. The club has fortnightly meetings at which speakers talk on different parts of the world. With the many foreign students enrolled at Tech, a great variety of interesting speakers are available right on the campus. Meetings are usually held in the Janet Earle Room, but sometimes they are held in faculty homes. Among the speakers were Professor Sanger, who spoke on his internment in China during the Japanese occupation; Heikki Elo. who spoke about the German and Russian influences on his Cosmopolitan s on a Picnic country. Finland; and Andreas Devletoglou. who talked of his experiences while a prisoner of Greek Communists. 0PO F Tt «§ m, Jmd DEBATING SOCIETY: First Row, left to right: D. Danielson, P. Kahn, N.

Debating Society, since its organization in the spring of 1938. has consistently maintained an admirable record of wins and has engaged in debates with many of New England ' s strongest college debating teams. This year was no exception to the rule. The Worcester Intercollegiate Debating Tournament, held again this year, served to test the mettle of the debating team with the coveted trophy, won by Tech last year, at stake. However, the budding elocutionists were edged by a strong Holy Cross team which retired with the trophy. The Debating Society continued its active program by engaging in debates with many of the local colleges and schools. Of special note was the Patriot ' s Day weekend trip which included debates with several colleges in the western part of the state as well as schools in the eastern and southern sections of New England. The club also entered the Region 8 section of the 3rd Annual West Point National Inter¬ collegiate Debate Tournament. The subject of the year ' s debates was—“Resolved that the Federal Gov¬ ernment should adopt a policy of equalizing education in tax supported schools by means of annual grants.

Many new members, consisting mostly of freshmen, joined the remainder of last year ' s club and the men have welded themselves into a group of fine perform¬ ers as was illustrated by the many well-received con¬ certs given throughout the school year. The Glee Club opened this season on January 21, when they gave their annual concert with the girls from Becker Junior College in Alden Memorial. In March, the club went down to Storrs, Connecticut, where they gave another joint concert at the Uni¬ versity of Connecticut. In the latter part of the same month, a concert was given at the Hopedale Com¬ munity House. In April, the club gave a Sunday morning concert at the First Unitarian Church here in Worcester, and in Ma y they completed a very successful season by participating in the final pro¬ gram of the Civic Music Series. The Glee Club octet offered many well arranged songs throughout the year which made them remem¬ bered wherever they performed. The officers of the club for this year were: Walter Dick, President; Joseph Skidmore, Vice-President; Mal¬ colm Sanborn. Secretary; and Arthur Nead, Librarian. The Masque turned in a superb performance again this year. Under the able direction of Mr. Charles B. Rugg, a thoroughly competent and inspiring cast presented Command Decision ' on the weekend of the Junior Prom before a capacity audi¬ ence. This unusual drama, written by William Wister Haines, is one of the best stories to come out of World War II. Worcester Tech was one of the first schools in New England which attempted the production after it had been released for amateur use. The action depicted the conflict between the generals who planned conserva¬ tive bombing missions which would be favorable to public opinion, and General Casey Dennis, who be¬ lieved that it was necessary to strike crippling blows, regardless of heavy losses, in order to win the war. In December, the one act play Banquo ' s Chair, under the direc¬ tion of Roland Bedard, was very capably presented at one of the weekly assemblies. Another one act play entitled, The Rope, was well-received when stag¬ ed before the student body at a late spring assembly. Some of the members also par¬ ticipated in radio workshops, all of which helped make this year one of the most successful. First Row, left to right: M. Gosselin, L. Lemere, H. Demarest, P. Wild, D.

It has often been said, upon watching the Tech Band go through its paces on successive autumn Saturday after¬ noons, that Tech differs from most in¬ stitutions of higher learning in that we have a subsidized band instead of football team. The inference is, of course, that the Tech Band appears too professional for a college of this size, and well this inference is made. For anyone who has witnessd their pre¬ cision formations and smart martial air and has heard their degree of musical perfection, realizes why a statement like that might be made. With the procurement of colorful new uniforms, the Lynchmen really hit their stride and, although the call to first rehearsal had scarcely died away, their appearance at the first game led one to believe that they had been at Tanglewood all summer long. Then after a full season of performances, each as good or better than the pre¬ vious, Techmen depressingly thought they had seen the last of them. Not so, for at each basketball game music would suddenly burst forth, and upon spotting the bass-drummer gleefully producing rhythm, the rest of the non¬ marching ensemble could be found tucked away in the corner. Then, too, was their assembly concert superbly done and highly lauded. Everything considered, if the band continues their march of progress in years to come, the Trustees will be forced to rename W. P. I. the Goldman Polytechnic Institute. THE W. P. I. MARCHING BAND: First Row, left to right: P. Brown, J. O ' Connor, H. DeCarli, C. Lutz, F. Reynolds, R. Jones, B. Buckley, M. Sanborn, E.

It might, for the abnormal outside world, be hard to conceive that mortal phenomenon known as an engineer having any liking for music of any kind, but for the Boyntoni- ans, every Hillclimber here has more than a good word to say as they ably provide the necessary requirements that no canned music” could ever fill. It has always been a task for Techmen to convince onlooking “Les Femmes that each and every member is a full-fledged square engineer and that the band is not some better import from Boston and vicinity. Few among us realize that their co¬ ordination and polish are the result of many sessions on the stage. Their behind-the- scenes hours are filled with the drudgery of rehearsing, over and over, the stock arrangements—changing, adding to, and composing to fashion the final product, the product that sweetly falls on appreciative ears at appreciative times. Under the competent guidance of Ed George, these fifteen men have serenaded the student body many a pleasant hour this past year: the informal dances after the basketball games, their annual assembly concert, and the many other dances which were made successful only because of them. We are indeed fortunate in having the Boyntonians numbered among the activities here on the Hill. First Row, left to right: L. Bassett, Miss Phyl Rawding, D. Lintz, A. Anderson, G. Peet, R.

Student Branch at Worcester Tech is one of the 124 active student branches of the Society throughout the country. It serves to introduce to the students the practices of the A.S.M.E. and mechanical engineering in general. It provides opportunity for the students to meet prominent engineers in the industries and to secure engineering in¬ formation at first hand. The Student Branch conducted seven monthly meetings during the past school year, one of which was held in conjunction with the Worcester Section of the A.S.M.E. At each meeting, a lecture on some technical subject was presented by a well-known engineer with movies and slides frequently shown by way of illustration. The outstanding lecture of the year was given by Mr. Robert G. Dexter, of Barkeley £ Dexter, Boston, Mass., whose topic was Production Possibilities with ' Tailor-Made ' Automatic Machinery. A record audience of 94 attended the meeting. The Student Branch was represented by one officer at the A.S.M.E. Annual Meeting in New York on December 1-2, 1948. It was represented by a delegation of six members at the Regional Conference at the University of Connecticut on April 29-30, 1949. The Student Branch, this past year, received 141 student memberships. These included 77 seniors, 48 juniors. 17 sophomores, and 1 freshman. The officers for the year were: James Z. Peepas, Chairman; Peter Kalil, Vice-Chairman; and Tsu-Yen Mei, Secretary- Treasurer. The Honorary Chairman was Professor M. Lawrence Price. First Row, left to right: W. Hallishak, J. Skidmore, J.

Like the other engineering organizations, the A.S.C.E. gives the student a chance to meet outstanding men in their chosen field. Civil Engineering covers a broad field, which consequently made the programs for the year varied and interesting. At most of the meetings, movies were shown and a speaker was on hand to answer any questions on the topics presented. There were movies on oil well drilling and steel making that held the attention of the audience. Two of the other topics covered were the use of structural steel, and the history of Sanitary Engineering. In the spring the Chapter traveled to Tufts for the Regional Student Chapter Con¬ ference. During the day the students attended many talks by well-known engineers. The subjects were ably presented and interesting to the embryo engineers. After the meetings a banquet was served. Earlier in the year a few of the members went down to Boston to attend the parent society ' s convention. The organization was ably headed for the year by Mai Horton, President; Neil Crowley, Vice-President; Donald Kolodne, Secretary; and Frank Flood. Treasurer. John Brierly and Donald Knowlton were the delegates to the Regional Conference. First Row, left to right: Dr. W. L. Kranich, J. Snyder, P. Kahn, H. Rien- stra, E. Lemieux, J. Gwiazda, J. Beckwith, T.

It was organized with the object of putting student members in touch with the conditions and problems in the chemical engineering industry. At the regular meetings, held about once a month, speakers who are leaders in some field of chemical engineering, are invited to come and talk. However, the Student Chapter does not confine itself to purely chemical engineering. On the social side, one meeting was held in the form of a house party. Later, in March, the chapter sponsored a Unit Op Hop. This was a dance held in the Unit Operations Laboratory which helped give the party plenty of atmosphere. On the engineering side, the most important activity was the Regional Conference sponsored by the local chapter. Representatives from six New England colleges attended, helping to make the conclave a great success. i The American Institute of Electrical Engin¬ eers was formed to give electrical engineers an opportunity to keep up with modern de¬ velopments and be enhanced with the knowledge gained by their fellow members. The Student Chapter here at Tech was formed so that the students can profit by the experience of engineers already in the field and can also get an idea of what to expect when they enter the professional world. The Tech chapter holds monthly meetings at which professional engineers, instructors, or students, lecture. The Student Forum, where students submit instructive criticisms in regards to the Electrical Department for discussion, came about partly through the efforts of this organization, and is run by them. Every year, the Student Chapter holds a joint meeting with the Worcester Chapter, and the students present papers with prizes going to the winners. The winners then compete in the Regional Conference held every year. First Row, left to right: J. Fitzgerald, H. Tash- ijan, C. C. Allen, R. Miller, A. Swenson, O. Foss, H. Picard, D. Lintz, A.

O ' REGAN It does not take the newly-arrived Freshman long to realize the significance of the small white cap seen on the Tech campus. Even be¬ fore his orientation period is over, he begins to look upon the bearer of this emblem with a respect which never dies during his years at W. P. I. An investigation of the nature of Skull soon reveals the reasons for this respect which is so prevalent at Tech. Its objectives are to make a sustained effort to further Tech spirit and, toward this goal, to stimulate undergraduate interest in campus activities. Skull forwards these objectives by selecting members on the basis of outstanding personality and ability. Since these characteristics go hand in hand with leadership. Skull ' s members exert a great W. APPLEGATE A. DELOID R. CARLSON J. MEADE E. DION J - PEEPAS s. UCICH J. ADAMS K. MUCCINO H. MELDEN deal of influence on student opinion. The objectives and characteristics of Skull ' s mem¬ bers were first established nearly forty years ago. in 1911. Skull cloaks all of its ceremonies with the greatest secrecy except the annual spring pledging. Every year a large audience as¬ sembles at Alden Memorial Auditorium to wit¬ ness the “tapping ceremony. While all present maintain a respectful silence, the black-robed members of Skull line up on the stage. Then each in turn passes slowly through the audi¬ ence, finally identifying a pledge by a firm blow on the shoulder. The newly selected pledge then receives his pin from the chapter president. One indication of the honor that goes with membership in Skull is that each year a maxi¬ mum of eleven men can be chosen from the Junior class alone. The prestige of the organi¬ zation is further enhanced by several faculty members, including Admiral Wat Tyler Clu- verius. Dean Francis W. Roys, Doctor Albert J. Schweiger, Professor Arthur J. Knight, Doctor Ernest D. Wilson, Professor Hobart Newell, Professor M. Lawrence Price, Professor Carl G. Johnson, and Donald E. Smith. As a service to the school, each year Skull makes an award to the Freshman who, in the opinion of the Society, has done the most for Tech. Still, even this high award is no guaran¬ tee to future membership in Skull, and this point is always stressed at the time of the award. All this leaves small wonder then why every Freshman hopes that someday the red and gray beanie he dons on arrival at Tech will be replaced by the distinguishing white cap of Skull.

Jgm Heia Pi The W. P. I. Chapter of Tau Beta Pi was organized in 1910; a quarter of a century after the original chap¬ ter had been founded at Lehigh Uni¬ versity. Its purpose is to recognize those who have brought honor to their Alma Mater by distinguished scholarship and exemplary char¬ acter. In order to be eligible for election, seniors must be in the upper fifth of their class and juniors in the upper eighth. Two pledgings take place annual¬ ly, one in the Fall and one in the Spring. These pledgings take place during a school assembly at which time the pledges are given a wooden replica of the Bent of Tau Beta Pi which they must carry to all their classes. This ceremony is followed by an initiation banquet which this year was held in the second week of April. The speaker at this banquet was a noted patent lawyer, Mr. Clayton lenks. C. C. Allen W. C.

The honorary engineering soci¬ ety of Sigma Xi was founded in 1888 at Cornell University. The local chapter was founded on the Hill in 1908. Since its origin. Sig¬ ma Xi has grown and now has a membership of well over twenty thousand. The purpose of this society is to promote research in the sci¬ entific fields. Selected students are entitled to associate member¬ ships, while members of the fac¬ ulty are eligible for full member¬ ship. Regular meetings are held, in which men who are leaders in their own fields speak on topics of general interest. These meet¬ ings are open to all interested persons.

It is the newest of the major honorary societies on the Hill. Pi Delta Epsilon, being pledged to the promotion of student participa¬ tion in all the undergraduate pub¬ lications, is composed of members from both the Tech News and PEDDLER Staffs. It is the purpose of this young, but rising, society to ele¬ vate the cause of journalism, to en¬ courage loyalty to the Alma Mater, to aid in every way all student pub¬ lications, and to award the partici¬ pants in these activities for their efforts and accomplishments by ad¬ mission into the organization. Meetings are held regularly to dis¬ cuss problems pertaining to journal¬ ism on campus. At a meeting held early in the spring, Ray Remillard was elected President; Walter Dick, Vice-President; Hugh Robinson, Sec¬ retary; and Mai Sanborn, Treasurer. Mr. William R.

It was established in 1911 and joined the National Interfraternity Council in 1915. The pur¬ pose of this governing council is to promote harmony among chapters and between chapters and faculty. The Council meets once a month at one of the chapter houses and is composed of a delegate from each house, elected by the house, and two delegates representing the faculty. At these meet¬ ings, the Council formulates policies on rushing, scholarship, and interfraternity sports. The rushing program here at Tech is set up by the Interfraternity Council. It postulates regulations for both freshmen and upperclassmen and see that they are adhered to. All freshmen receive pamphlets on fraternities and the part they play in college life. As the social activities here at Tech revolve around the fraternities, it is imperative that the freshmen have a clear understanding of them. The nine fraternities here on campus compete each year in sports for the Interfraternity Cup. The Interfraternity Council sets up the point standards upon which the winner is determined. It also evalu¬ ates the other activities, clubs, and organizatons, in terms of points, which lead towards the General Excellence Award given each year by the presi¬ dent to the most outstanding fraternity. One of the big social events of the year, the Inter- fraternity Ball, is run by the Interfraternity Council. This year the Ball was held on Friday evening, December 10, with Tommy Reynolds and his band providing the music. The success of the Council could not be attained without the help of Professor Claude Schiefly, Chair¬ man of the Council, with Mr. Richard N. Cobb, also of the faculty, as Secretary, and Walter Keyl, Stu¬ dent Treasurer. -tytoiteAsUtH, I - VX� T ' ' «• � ?- - PA -?

At Tech, the Athletic Council is the governing body of the Athletic Association. The Council is designed to give the students a voice in the athletic policy of the Institute. Five of the ten members are from the student body. Regular meetings are held throughout the year. At these meet¬ ings, matters pertaining to policy and program are discussed, the names of those to whom letters shall be awarded are approved, and managerial staffs for each sport are elected for the following season. This year, largely through the efforts of the Athletic Council, the Annual Fall Spring Sports Banquets were held for the first time since the war. Both banquets were extremely well attended. Var¬ sity sweaters and letters for the various sports were awarded. This marked the first time that sweaters have been given to the lettermen in the minor sports. Also, the various letters and insignia were standardized to a 7 block chenille for the major sports and a 5 block chenille for the minor sports. All in all, the Athletic Council has contributed much in the past year to the furtherance and betterment of athletics here on the Hill. Bob Pritchard ' s second year at the helm of Tech ' s gridiron des¬ tinies resulted in the best season for the Engineers since 1944, as they turned in a seasonal record of one victory, an opening game tie against Fort Devens, and four losses. These statistics may not be overly impressive, but won-lost statistics aren ' t always the true indication of a team ' s caliber. Five stalwarts, namely Co-Cap¬ tains Harry Melden and Howie Green, Jim O ' Regan, Joe Winslow, and Harry O ' Donaghue represent¬ ed the Class of 1949 on the squad. The first game of the season, against Fort Devens at Alumni Field, was the harbinger of the type of team that coaches Pritch¬ ard and McNulty had whipped to¬ gether. We didn ' t win it in the scorebooks, where future Tech- men will read of a 7-7 deadlock, but in the hearts of everyone pres¬ ent we did. With some new ends in the persons of Andy Freeland, ' 51, Clem Bartlett, ' 52, and Bill Mehalick, ' 52, plus frosh Joe Jiunnis at the quarterback position and Dewey Lund, ' 51, at left half, added to the old-timers O ' Regan, Melden, Green, A1 Han¬ sen, the Kolodne brothers, and Rick Ferrari, we had the ”T party our own way all afternoon. In the final analysis, penalties cost Tech an opening game victory, as a 50 yard scoring run by Howie Green in the first canto, was nulli¬ fied by an offside penalty. First blood was drawn by the home team when Rick Ferrari re¬ turned a Devens punt 25 yards to the midfield stripe. Green made 12 yards to put the ball on the 38. Ferrari carried for three, and then Jiunnis hit Bartlett with a pass on the six. Green went over standing up on the first play, and Ferrari converted to put us in the lead, 7-0. This lead was nursed carefully until there were but three minutes left in the ballgame. At this point a long pass from Nagle to Mc- Glory covered 75 yards in one big lump for the invading Chiefs and three plays later they scored from the five. The P.A.T. was cashed in, and the final score read Tech 7, Devens 7. For their second game, the En¬ gineers invaded the lair of the Mass. Univ. Redmen at Amherst, and almost came back with their first scalp of the young season. However, after leading 7-6 for three quarters, lack of depth in the squad made itself felt, and the Techmen succombed to fresh Red- men reserves, 26-7. As in the sea¬ son ' s opener against Devens, Tech scored first. Again it was the run¬ ning of Ferrari and Green, plus the play-calling and passwork of freshman ace Joe Jiunnis. After Howie had ripped off 13 yards, and Rick had added another 18 yards, Jiunnis completed three consecutive passes, the third cov¬ ering the final eleven yards to paydirt. Ferrari converted. The home team broke into the scoring column on the last play of the first half on a freak pass that was batted around in the end zone and finally fell into waiting arms. The point try was wide, and Tech still held a one point margin. However, frequent substitutions by the Red and White were wear¬ ing down the Tech “Iron Men and the roof finally fell in during the final period as the home team scored three times. The following week, the Boyn¬ ton Hillers invaded Springfield ' s Pyncheon Park, meeting the Aces of American International College under the lights on a Friday night. This time the team was not to be denied as Tech pushed the Yellow and Black up and down the grid¬ iron, emerging from the battle on the long end of a 19-6 score. The veritable horde of embryo engin¬ eers that made the fifty mile trek to see the team play made shambles out of the goal posts in tribute to the fine play of “their boys. As for the game, it was a team victory, with everyone playing to the hilt. Again it was the fine ball¬ handling of Jiunnis, and the run¬ ning of Ferrari and Green, plus a line that could not be penetrated, that produced the win. Howie Green scored first for the invading Worcesterites, ending a 68 yard march with a six yard run. Ferrari converted to put the Engineers in front to stay 7-0. In the se cond half, big Walt Kolodne blocked an attempted punt by the Aces, and Tech recovered on the home team ' s 38. On the first play, Fer¬ rari ate up 35 yards, from which Mehalick Snags a Six-Pointer First Row, left to right: A. Hansen, J. O ' Regan, W. Kolodne, Co-Captain H. Melden, Co- Captain H. Green, R.

C. was forced to punt, and Green made a fair catch on the Tech 40. Again the Maroon and Gray was not to be held back, and drove to their third tally of the evening, with Ferrari battering his way to the double stripe from 8 yards out. The Aces scored in the final period, recovering an erratic Tech lateral on the Worcester 35. But the ball game was in the satchel for the Techsters, and they brought it back to Worcester along with the goal posts. The final score: Worcester 19, A. I. C. 6 . A few statistics will give a more complete story of how the Engin¬ eers rambled over their opposition in the contest. They picked up 19 first downs. 293 yards on the ground.and 75 yards through the air. Of this, Rick Ferrari piled up 162 yards in 20 tries for an 8.1 yard average, and Howie Green added another 98 yards in 21 at¬ tempts for a 4.7 yard average. In addition, the charging forward wall nullified seven pass attempts by the Aces, smothering the pass¬ er before he could get the leather into the air. On the following Saturday, high hopes for an upset victory against their rival Engineers from Troy, the Renssalaer Trojans, came to naught as the Trojans routed the visiting eleven, 28-6. For the first time in the season the Techmen were beaten to the punch, and found themselves behind 14-0 be¬ fore they could get their scoring machine rolling. Rick Ferrari pushed the starter, scampering 15 yards from midfield to the home team ' s 35. After a five yard pen¬ alty had set the ball back to the 40 yard line, Dewey Lund weaved his way 33 yards through the Tro¬ jan giants to the seven yard mark¬ er. from where Howie Green Ferrari Off Tackle scored his fourth touchdown of the season. The try for the point was smothered by the R. P. I. line. This game marked the first time in the season that the Tech line was out¬ played. After three games on the road, the Engineers returned to Alumni Field, to engage the Hartford Hur¬ ricanes, Trinity College, before a huge Homecoming Day crowd. Trinity had rolled over its pre¬ vious opponents by wide margins, and was considered one of the small college powers in New Eng¬ land circles. The Blue and God clad visitors started off in quick style, assuming a 7-0 lead before the old grads had settled in their seats. They upped their margin to 13-0 when a second blocked kick by the in¬ vading mastodons was scooped up by them and cashed into six points. A third score for Trinity came as a result of a pass, and the score read, 20-0, Trinity. However, the never-say-die Engineers came to life as Walt Kolodne pounced on an opposi¬ tion fumble on the 32 yard line. A long aerial from Joe Jiunnis to Bill Mehalick replaced the zero on the scoreboard with 6, and Trin¬ ity ' s lead was cut to 13 points. On the kickoff. Trinity ' s Cor¬ coran legged through the Tech defenses 76 yards to the home H. Melden H. Green J. O ' Reagan D. Lund A. Hansen J. Jiunnis team ' s four, being caught by Dewey Lund. But the Tech line showed their guts and detemina- tion by not only holding for downs, but pushing the burly Hilltoppers back to the 15 yard line. The Boynton Bombers started off the second half with a bang, as Green and Ferrari combined long runs, to put the ball on the Trinity 8 yard line. But a fumble ended the scoring threat, and the Blue and Gold took over. Following an exchange of punts. Trinity marched 80 yards to their fourth score of the afternoon. With the ensuing kickoff. Tech again start¬ ed a sustained drive, but a second fumble, on the Trinity 37 yard line ended the threat. Trinity tallied once more to make the final score read: Trinity 33, Worcester 6 . For their final game of the sea¬ son, the Engineers eleven lined up against the Arnold College stal¬ warts from Milford, Connecticut. The Red and White jumped into a quick lead in the opening period when a Tech punt traveled but 3 yards up the field, and the Gym¬ nasts took over on the Worcester 24 yard line. Four plays later the visitors pushed across the lone tally of the afternoon, and with the extra point, pushed to the fore with a 7-0 count. It was the end of the scoring, but the thrills that are so characteristic of a classic struggle as this one were yet to come. Two minutes before the half-time whistle. Tech pushed its way to the Arnold eight yard marker. But with the tying points within grasp, a backfield fumble threw a monkey wrench in the Engineers scoring machinery, as Arnold pounced on the loose pig¬ skin. The second half featured a goal line stand by the home team that left the spectators limp. Taking a kick by Jiunnis on their own 46, the Gymnasts worked their way 48 yards to the Tech 6 yard line. But four plays later, the invaders found themselves still one yard away from the precious double stripe. Instead of kicking out of danger, the Engineers gambled on running plays. Howie Green was the spearhead of the attack, covering 51 yards in five plays by himself. But once again the same bugaboo known as fumblitis strangled the surge, and Arnold recovered on their own 40. That was the last substantial scoring threat for Tech, although they got the ball once again. An interception killed this last scoring attempt, and the ball game ended two plays later. In this contest, as in others dur¬ ing the season. Tech outclassed their opponents in all but the scoring department. They reeled off 14 first downs against the visit¬ ing club ' s six; gained 187 yards on the turf, plus 20 more through the air, for a total of 207 against Arnold ' s total of 152. Howie Green was the shining light of Worcester ' s offensive, gaining 101 yards in 16 attempts for an aver¬ age of 6.3 yards per carry. In the line, A1 Hansen and Walt Kolodne were the standouts, roaming around in the oppositon ' s back- field throughout the game, Rick Ferrari, in addition to gaining 77 yards, nailed potential enemy ground gainers consistently from his halfback post. Thus ended another football season on the Hill, Tech being represented on the gridiron by a team which held its own in some rugged competition. Hats off to these Techmen who fought the battle in the best Tech tradition, and to the guiding hands of two fine coaches. Bob Pritchard and Charley McNulty. Captain Ucich and Coach McNulty. Freeland taps one in for Tech. It matters not whether you win or lose, it ' s how you play the game. The veracity of this state¬ ment may be doubted in view of the modern trend in the sports world, but it is, perhaps, a source of consolation and certainly aptly phrased in the case of the Engi¬ neers, who have just completed a court season rich in fight and ef¬ fort but meagre in victories. The Tech quintet fashioned five wins as opposed to eleven defeats, em¬ ploying for the first time a new style of play under the tutelage of Coach Charlie McNulty. The Old Guard of Tech starters included Captain Steve Ucich, Russ Brad- Firsl Row, left to right: B. Carpenter, S. Ucich, A. Freeland, R. Norris, W. Collings, Coach C. McNulty.

Howard. law, Richie Howard, and new¬ comer Bill Mehalick, with Andy Freeland and Bill Collings alter¬ nating at the fifth post. Other varsity men that often stepped into the breach were Walt Kolodne, John Converse, George Barna, and Bob Chapman. The season was inaugurated on December 11th, when Worcester Tech played host to Devens in the opener. Exhibiting a reckless Rhode Island State type of play, the Chief ' s, sparked by diminutive Joe Cassidy, surged in the second half to wrest the lead and the game by a single point, 35-34. The Boynton Basqueteers jumped into the winner ' s circle with a mid¬ week conquest over the University of Massachusetts, when they staged a Frank Merriwell finish to win in an overtime squeaker, 50-49. But all that had gone be¬ fore was but a tuneup to the grudge battle of the season when Tech entertained the Cam¬ bridge Mechanics ' Association, known to few as M. I. T., and romped ove r their blood foes, 59- 37. Steve Ucich paced the Wor¬ cester scoring with sixteen points, closely followed by Richie Howard with fifteen. But the lush days were soon followed by the lean, as Tech moved into fast company to match shots with Boston Uni¬ versity. Even so, the Tequintet came very close indeed to accom¬ plishing a major upset. Up to a point just ten minutes short of the end of the game, the heavily fa¬ vored Terriers were running true to form with a 26 point edge. At this critical juncture. Tech showed a startling reversal of form. Find¬ ing the range with eight out of ten shots, the home-breds came claw¬ ing back to slice the Terrier mar¬ gin to fifteen at the game ' s end, 51-36. The Chiefs of Devens made it two in a row as they vanquished Tech, 39-34, over their own huge court surface. In a slam-bang type of play, the lead changed hands often during the contest, with the Macmen eclipsed only in the closing minutes. The moment that Worcester ' s next opponent. Trini¬ ty, stepped out on the floor is was apparent that the men of Tech would play at the most serious height disadvantage thus far. In fact it was altitude that played the principal role in the Trinity victory. Ron Watson, six-five, and Bill Pitkin, six-three, teamed to toss nineteen and sixteen points re¬ spectively to lead their mates to a 50-42 triumph. Russ Bradlaw paced the Boyntonians with thir¬ teen tallies as Tech continued in a slump that was assuming alarming proportions. This victory gave Trinity a one game advan¬ tage in a twenty-three game series dating back to 1909. Tech took to the road in an effort to shake off the scoring hoo¬ doo as they met American Inter¬ national on the expansive court of the Springfield College Field House. Outscoring the Aces from the floor, 48-40, Tech saw the game slip away from the foul line. Surging too late in the fray. Tech could not close the gap and bowed out, 56-52. The next night Worcester Tech took part in the March of Dimes basketball jam¬ boree at the Auditorium, tangling with the Greyhounds of Assump¬ tion College. With four minutes to play in the first half. Assump¬ tion, leading by a single point, took off on a scoring spree, rolling up seventeen points in those four minutes. Tech never recovered from this rampage and lost, 55-45. But the men of Boynton did not have long to wait for revenge. Two nights later. Tech lined up against Assumption again, and this time they meted out a harsh fate to their intra-city foes. Richie Howard championed Tech ' s ech anatlie i paint cause, tossing 22 points in leading the Engineers to a 46-42 triumph. Tech continued their winning ways by lowering the boom on a slightly favored Upsala team, 52- 45. Playing some of their most capable ball of the season, the Macmen wrested the lead mid¬ way through the second canto and took the Vikings going away; Ucich and Freeland sharing the scoring laurels. With their stock at an all-time high, the Boynton Bombers set their caps for North¬ eastern, reigning as a heavy pre¬ game favorite. Once again Tech displayed their finest game, only to be disappointed in their drive for an upset in the waning mo¬ ments of combat. With but a few minutes to go. Tommy Blair of Northea stern put on a one-man show, cutting loose with 10 points and demolishing Tech ' s slender lead. In their tenth straight home victory. Northeastern was definite¬ ly extended in squeezing by the Engineers, 49-45. After their post-Christmas slump, the Tech five was at last exhibiting the brand of play of which they were capable, a fact which bode ill for their next an¬ tagonists. The victim was Hamil¬ ton College. Wielding an unac- Gbaiud (loan, , ad customed scoring punch. Tech pounced on the Continentals shifting zone to dominate the ac¬ tion in posting a 63-52 decision. Russ Bradlaw and Walt Kolodne provided the scoring impetus with 15 and 12 points respectively. Sporting a record of five and seven, the Boyntonians left on their sole extended road trip of the season. In their first trial, the Apocalyptic Horsemen of Norwich rode over Tech in the final period as they picked apart the Mac- men ' s lead and crept ahead to win, 40-35. Out of the wilderness of Vermont came the Engineers to tangle with the cultured scions of Amherst, but sad to relate, the Tech equation had achieved a minimum value as the Lord Jeffs, eased by the impotent travelers to win a scoreless wonder, 41-29. Face to face with even greater height than they had experienc¬ ed against Trinity, Tech found the Amherst zone inpenetrable throughout the evening and the long-range scoring path closed to them. Tech came close to making the front page of every sports sheet in the East in their next outing. In forcing the mighty Brown team to pull out all the stops. Tech came close indeed to tumbling the team that later went on to humble Holy Cross. Paced by the brilliant floor play of How¬ ard, Tech held the Bruins to a low growl as Brown chalked up a 52- 41 verdict. Once again the in¬ ability of the Engineers to find the basket with any consistency cost them an upset victory. The men of Tech were also thwarted in their efforts to wrest a victory from a Tufts aggregation. The Jumbos carved away at an early Tech lead to stampede to a 56-43 conquest. With but one game re¬ maining on the schedule. Tech had a record of five victories as compared with ten losses. In their last act curtain, Wor¬ cester Tech met their traditional rivals, Clark University, in the sev¬ enteenth encounter of the hallow¬ ed series. Before 1,200 near-hys- J. Converse terical onlookers, the Scarlets of Clark nipped the hopes of the Crimson and Grey at the very last, 55-51. Throughout the con¬ test, Tech was confronted by the bleak facts of a fantastic scoring average by their foes and the un¬ timely injury of center Steve Ucich. Stubbornly refusing to be outclassed, the Tequintet fought savagely to the very last claxon in the most fiercely contested game of the year. Two very familiar faces will be gone from Worcester Tech court circles next season with the grad¬ uation of both Steve Ucich, who received honorable mention on the All-New England squad, and Russ Bradlaw, a long familiar force at his guard post. These two men have been among the most consistent and often brilliant per¬ formers of Tech ' s court repre¬ sentatives. But a strong nucleus remains, and perhaps around it can be built a team that will make Worcester Tech once more a force in New England basketball. J. Y. BASKETBALL On the face of a record of three wins and eight losses. Tech ' s Junior Varsity squad might easily be shrugged off as an indifferent team. Actually, however, it was a scrappy, aggressive outfit which never stopped fighting for victory. Every game they played an arresting brand of ball, and at their best, they baffled many a supposedly superior team. The Junior Varsity opened its season with a win over the New England School of Accounting to the score of 43-3G, but could not find the winning stride during the next four games, losing to the University of Massachusetts and M. I. T. Freshman squads. Com¬ merce High School, and the Trini¬ ty J. V. ' s. Against the Assumption Frosh, however. Tech found the range and romped with a G7-29 victory. Returning again to their losing ways, they dropped a close one to Classical High, 38-34, and three more to the Northeastern J. V. ' s, South High and the Brown Frosh. Nevertheless, Tech ' s team still had one more chance to redeem themselves—and they did. Facing the Clark Freshmen in the re¬ sumption of an old rivalry. Tech ' s J. V. ' s matched the Clark squad basket for basket and took home the laurels with a hoop that con¬ nected just as the final buzzer sounded, leaving the score. Tech 44, Clark 43. H. Althen J. Kasper J. V.

As soon as school reopened in the Fall, the snap in the air and the sight of old team mates brought soccer into many minds and even before the official call went out, veterans of the previous season ' s team were seen each afternoon on the field, running and kicking to loosen up lazy summer muscles. After a week or so, when Coach Higginbottom began regular practice, he found an eager corps of players who soon were joined by new faces. Only a few afternoons of practice were needed to see that the re¬ turning lettermen formed a capa¬ ble group but they needed many experienced, shifty helpmates. At the season ' s beginning, eyes turn¬ ed hopefully towards such promis¬ ing men as Li, Robertson, Mankey, Schmitt, Hodgett, Horton, and Kwan, The team ' s enthusiasm ran high and the sparks of the team such as Fulmer, Kahn, Shattuck, and Meiklejohn had raised spirit to an eager peak. Then came the last practice be¬ fore game time. The fine points were being stressed now as each man showed more and more, the benefit of his experience. Flat footedness had been traded for nimbleness; lethargy for attack mindedness. Uniforms were is¬ sued, last minute advice given, and cleats and laces were check¬ ed for the last time. Saturday, about one in the afternoon, the Devens ' boys ar¬ rived. They were a husky crew and as they ran through pre-game loosening up exercises they seem¬ ed quite ball wise. The refs blew a warning whistle and each team huddled around its coach. Win this one, was the cry. For the Tech booters a lot depended on this game. They had the spirit. Did they have the stuff? Winning an opening game is always a great morale booster. When the game opened it was apparent that the Devens crew knew how to use their weight and their team play was good. But by the second quarter, the Techmen found their own strength, as Cap¬ tain DeLoid ma de the first score. From then on it was Tech all the way and, in spite of the two goals the opponents slipped through, the scoring by Shattuck, Underwood, Ozbas, and Li, saw Worcester walking happily to the showers at game ' s end with a well-deserved, 5-2 victory. Along with everyone else, Hig- gy was well pleased. The team had played soccer and appeared far superior to his previous sea¬ son ' s crew. However, he knew well that the next game on the schedule with Trinity would be one of the toughest. Trinity al¬ ways has a big, hard driving out¬ fit and this year had at least one All-American on the roster. Lots of practice was the need and lots of practice the Techsters got. About this time a new figure was added to the picture in the form of Jim Geddis, a Worcester resi¬ dent with long soccer experience. He was adding his coaching talent to Higgy ' s and as the season wore on he gained the friendship of all who came to know him. A real Worcester rooter, he spent his afternoons showing individual men little tricks of the game and was present at all the Saturday conflicts calling words of encour¬ agement and praise in a loud Scottish burr.

Even with two coaches, though, the boys could not hold the Trinity men and the bus ride home from the first away game was melan¬ choly with the thought of their 3-1 loss. The trouble that was to dog Tech ' s heels for the rest of the sea¬ son first showed here as time after time the Hilltoppers moved the ball to within a few feet of the goal but could not then get it into the net. In this game, also. Tech suffered a costly first injury as Pete Kahn received a nasty cut over his eye and, despite his pleading to be allowed to play, was kept on the bench for the rest of the game. At home the next weekend the soccer boys were not in competi¬ tion with the football squad for spectators as the pigskinners were away. The crowd that gathered for the occasion must have spurr¬ ed our booters on. Although faced with the toughest competition of the year, the Techmen played a brilliant game — their best of the season—and suffered no shame in losing, 3-1. If it had not been for our slow start, the home fans might well have been cheering a winner, for M. I. T. had no oppor¬ tunity to score after the first quar¬ ter and were hard pressed by Tech ' s excellent team play for the rest of the game. Another costly injury occurred this Saturday when the ancient shoes issued to fullback Tom Hodgett cost him a broken toe. The softened leather was not able to protect him in the tough backfield fighting and his defensive playing was missed for the rest of the season. Another Worcester college pro¬ vided the competition after that as Higgy took his bunch over to Clark. Although the Clarkmen didn ' t have Tech ' s class or ability, they have a reputation for fight which had been stimulated by some pre-game baiting by Boyn¬ ton rooters. As the game pro¬ gressed the spectators saw the unhappy sight of a good team be¬ ing outrun, outfought, and out- scored. With a 4-2 lead near the end of the third auarter, we had dropped behind, 5-4, when the fi¬ nal whistle blew. The Clarkmen left the field justifiably proud, while the Boynton booters left smarting in defeat and deter¬ mined to win their next and last competition. It was another bus trip this last game as we journeyed to face the Jumbos of Tufts. Predictions were that the men of Medford would be an even match for W. P. I., but our hope and determination were expected to turn the tide. Their will to win gave them a quick lead as Red Shattuck booted in a beauty not five minutes after the game ' s start. During the whole game it was drive, drive, drive, with each man running his legs off and kicking mightily. A strong, cold wind blew across the field during the whole after¬ noon and that wind must have carried heartbreak with it. They wanted to win—they knew they could. But they didn ' t. With a 3-2 lead nine minutes before the last whistle of the sea¬ son, Tech let Tufts slip through to boot the tying goal. For nine re¬ maining minutes and all through the two five minute overtime peri¬ ods, the sideliners saw the Tech¬ men play as hard as they ever had. Tech drove time and again to the very mouth of the Tuft ' s goal but could not score. Heart¬ break followed heartbreak as our forward line booted within inches of that big wooden frame. But the Tuftsters were out to win too, and in th e first overtime period scored the goal that was to win. After taking the lead, 4-3, the opponents dropped back and formed a defensive formation that just could not be broken. Though they tried their mightiest. Tech could not make the grade and once again rode home in defeat. The season ended with a record of one win and five losses. But much experience was gained by every player and, though losses by graduation will be many, the team is convinced that one more step in the long process of build¬ ing a winning team has been taken and optimism fills the hearts of the men who will follow Cap¬ tain Ozbas into attack next sea¬ son.

Sullivan, G. Messenger, R. Rodier. The men who run Cross-country run for love of sport alone. Their ' s is but a brief moment before the eyes of the crowd; the greater part of their toiling chase is run unseen and unheralded. And yet the charges of Coach Sanella wrote some glowing pages this season into the sports history of Tech. Starting the season off at a brisk clip, the Crimson and Grey har¬ riers ran the legs off Devens, 22-38, only to succumb, in succession, to the marathoners of Trinity and Renssalaer, despite the repeated appearance of Zeleny, Brown, and Howell high among the finishers. It was in the following week, how¬ ever, that the mantle of fame settled upon the shoulders of the Cross-country squad. Rated as heavy pre-race underdogs. Tech showed their heels to a powerful Boston University team, 25-31. The individual star of the meet was freshman Dick Zeleny, for the New Jersey speedster breezed through the course in 18 minutes and 41 seconds, a pace that was 8 sec¬ onds under the previous course record. Bob Howell followed Zeleny across the line to gain a second place for Tech. In their next meet. Tech bowed to Coast Guard over a wet 4.8 mile course to end the Cross-country season with a record of 2 and 3 for the Hilltop Hillclimbers. Strengthened by the acquisition of Freshmen Zeleny and Howell, both former high school champs, and backed by an improving squad of Thomp¬ son, Desautels, Messenger, and Rodier, the Cross-country team looks forward with confidence to the 1949 campaign. Coach Frank Sanella is opti¬ mistic too in regard to the ap¬ proaching Spring Track schedule, which is highlighted by the entry of Tech in both the New England and the Eastern Championships. The Track team will lean heavily on experience in an intercollegiate schedule that features dual meets with the Universities of Massa¬ chusetts and Connecticut, Trinity, and Devens. Among familiar faces in the Tech colors this season will be broad-jumpers DeLoid and Barna, Harvey Howell in the dash¬ es and hurdles. Brown and Sher¬ man in the middle distance events, pole-vaulter DeWire, Leonard and Madwed in the shot and discus respectively, and Howe and An¬ derson in the javelin. Tech again showed up well during the indoor relay season though they were not able to pull out a victory. Their clockings were impressive in the two times they ran at the Boston Garden in the K. of C. Games and the B.A.A. Meet. Captain Dave Brown, Harvey Howell, Bob Fulmer, and Dick Zeleny made up the relay team. In the first race against the Uni¬ versity of Massachusetts, Spring- field, Colby, and Middlebury, Tech finished third. At the B.A.A. Meet they chopped some time from their first clocking and finished second behind a strong Springfield team. With only one workout behind them, the indoor track team traveled up to Amherst for a tri¬ angular meet with the University of Massachusetts and the Univer¬ sity of Connecticut. With a better balanced squad the Engineers could easily have copped the meet. Tech had no men in three events, but were able to gather up points in the ones they entered. The Howell brothers were first and second in the high and low hurdles. Dick Zeleny won the mile and A1 DeLoid took the broad jump. Only Dave Brown will be lost by graduation, and so prospects look hopeful for another season. SPRING TRACK First Row, left to right: C. Roberts, S. Herman, A. DeLoid, D. Brown, S. Madwed, G. Howe, J.

At this writing, the Engineers are about to start a nine game schedule after completing four weeks of practice, culminated by two prac¬ tice games, one a 3-3 tie with Becker Junior College, and the other, a 9-5 victory over Worcester State Teachers College. When W. P. I. takes the field against Devens College on April 30, as part of the Junior Prom weekend, all of the starting team, with the possible exception of the pitcher, will be composed of men who have previously worn Tech colors on the diamond. The start¬ ing lineup will find Bob Carlson, second baseman on the ' 47 team, behind the plate; Hal “Smoky Schmucki, who patrolled left field previously, at first; Paul May, a utility infielder last year, on sec¬ ond; Captain Billy Carlson, at his customary shortstop position; John¬ ny George and Don Stewart, at their usual positions of third base and left field respectively; former second baseman, Russ Bradlaw, hauling down fly balls in center field; and Jim O ' Regan, who has alternated between catcher and the outfield, chasing flies in right. It ' s a tossup as to whether Don Shattuck, capable relief pitcher of last season, or freshman Ed Van Cott, will start the first game on the hill for the Engineers. Both have been chucking well in pre¬ season practice. Of the ten men listed, seven are returning lettermen, and all but Van Cott have had game ex¬ perience playing college base¬ ball. Therefore, much can be hoped for from this year ' s veteran nine, as they set out for a season against such opponents as Clark, B. U., Mass U., M. I. T., A. I. C., Trinity, Tufts, and Northeastern, following the Devens opener. Coach Charlie McNulty ' s squad appears well fortified at all the positions. Andy Freeland can spell Schmucki at first, if the need should declare itself, while fresh¬ man Ken Cross promises to de¬ velop into a sparkling utility in¬ fielder. In case of emergency, Russ Bradlaw can always be call¬ ed in from the outfield to take over the familiar second base position. Spare outfielders of this year ' s nine are Don Thompson, hard¬ hitting Rick Ferrari, and capable freshman, Ro St. Louis. The catch¬ ing department is three deep, with veteran Red Campbell and Joe Jiunnies, up from Classical High of Worcester, backing up Bob Carlson. Aside from Shattuck and Van Cott, the mound staff is composed of Ed Dion, Kenny Wright, Ken Turner, and George Messinger. Only six men on the entire squad are seniors, so pros¬ pects for future years are also bright. It was on a cool day, April 20, when Tech took the field for its first practice game against Beck¬ ers. The infield was cakey and slow due to rain the previous several days, which, incidentally, prevented the Techmen from getting in much-needed practice. The W. P. I. battery was Shattuck and Carlson. Before the Tech team got over its case of first- game jitters, Becker ' s leaped into a 3-0 lead in the first half of the first, aided by several Engineer errors. But that was as far as they got. The pitching became excellent as Red Shattuck bore down and only allowed one more man on base in the next two in¬ nings. The one baserunner was doubled off first when Don Stew¬ art made a sensational catch high up on the hill in left field, and the relay beat the runner back to first. Ed Van Cott came on to pitch the last three innings, and he did the best pitching possible as he set the next nine men down in order. The Tech men meanwhile got two runs back in the bottom of the first and tied the game in the last inning. Our team didn ' t show its potential power in this game. Almost a week later, on April 26, the team from Worcester State Teachers College came down to Alumni Field to engage in an¬ other practice session with the Tech nine. A high wind, blowing across from right to left field, made the judging of high fly balls very difficult. Van Cott started on the mound for the Engineers, but Ed ' s stuff wasn ' t breaking, and with the aid of several walks, the Teachers scored twice in the first and three times in the second. Tech got one back in the stretch half of the first, and then when Smoky Schmucki led off with a triple to right to start the second, he gave fair indication of what was to come. Before the side was retired, 12 men had batted, and the Engineers had scored 8 runs with a timely display of hitting. That was all there was to the scoring of the 5 inning game as Shattuck in the 3rd and 4th, and Ed Dion in the 5th, held the Teachers scoreless. Smoky led the Tech hitters in the display of their hitting prow¬ ess as he banged out a double and a triple in two official trips, also scoring two runs. Steady Billy Carlson singled twice in two trips, while Bob Carlson also got two for two. Thus, as the Engineers wind up their preparations for the season ' s first game, much can be hoped for from this year ' s Tech nine. Under the guiding hand of Coach Mc¬ Nulty and the capable leadership of Captain Billy Carlson, every¬ thing points to a successful cam¬ paign. R. Ferrari J. O ' Reagan Coach McNulty Capt. Billy Carlson VARSITY SWIMMING TEAMrF rsf Row, left to right: H. Howell, P. Kahn, T. Hodgetf, S. Row, left to right: Coach F. Grant, B. Bowen, R. Olsen, E. Johnson, B. Hayward. Tech ' s ' 49 varsity swimmers, although somewhat lacking in depth, displayed indomitable spirit throughout every meet. In every one of the seven hard- fought contests. Tech sparkled and, at times, even out-shone their opponents. The first meet of the season was lost to a strong University of Connecticut team, 47-28, but the score does not be¬ speak the fine performance turned in by the Tech stalwarts, notably Butch Brown, Dick Olsen, and Bill Bowen. In their second showing of the year. Tech ' s mermen drowned the powerful Boston University ducks, 52-22. Out¬ standing in the victory drive were Rod Lancey, Pete Kahn, and Ev Johnson, who comprised the medley relay team that took their event by half a lengh; Butch Brown, who climbed out of the Fuller Pool with a walk-away win in the 220-yard freestyle; and Bill Bowen, who took second in the same event. Sid Madwed and Dick Olsen were nudged in the 600-yard freestyle, man¬ aging to eke out a second and third respectively. Sid Madwed then pulled out the 100-yard freestyle by a hand- touch with an assist in the last lap by Ev Johnson. Tech continued to mon¬ opolize first place as Rod Lancey and Bill Bowen took first and second in the 150-yard backstroke and Pete Kahn took a first in the 200-yard breaststroke. Butch Brown and Ev Johnson then pro¬ ceeded to put the lid on the victory by a walk-away first in the 440 and a hard-fought first in the 400-yard free¬ style. To round out the auspicious occa¬ sion, Coach Grant received an unan¬ ticipated dunking in the emerald waters of the Tech tank. Third on our agenda was the aquatic assemblage from Amherst, who present¬ ly humbled the Tech crew, 49-24. How¬ ever, all was not as the score would indicate. Messrs. Madwed, Johnson, Olsen, and Kahn pulled out the four- man relay, while their cohorts were securing several seconds in the other events. The fourth start found Tech ' s intrepid Neptunian band on the short end of a 50-25 edging, with the Jumbos from Med¬ ford being the perpetrators. Rod Lan- cey, Tom Hodgett and Ev Johnson start¬ ed the day off right by taking the medley relay by ten yards, but Tufts ' finmen soon found their place and re¬ taliated with three wins in the 50, 100, and 220-yard freestyle events. These markers put the Medford men well in the lead when coupled with a first and second in the diving competition. How¬ ever, Pete Kahn gave it the old college try and emerged from the lapping Madwed, R. Lancey, M. Brown. Second waters with the second and final Tech win of the day in the 200-yard breast¬ stroke. In the fifth contest of the ' 49 campaign, the Engineers went down in ignomini¬ ous defeat, being handed their second 50-25 topping in as many starts. Sid Madwed and Rod Lancey took the only first of the contest that had any leaning toward the Worcester side of the score book, with a first in the 100-yard free¬ style for Sid, and Rod ' s win in the 150- yard backstroke. Pete Kahn and Ev Johnson also took some lower honors in the other events. The sixth encounter for the Boynton Hillers found them host to the slipstick specialists from Cambridge. Once again the guillotine fell and Tech ' s chances for a second victory rolled in the bas¬ ket. Butch Brown, Sid Madwed, and Rod Lancey were again standouts with firsts in the 440- yard freestyle, 100-yard freestyle, and the 150-yard backstroke in that order. However, we did procure a few seconds, but when the last man emerged from the turbid drink, the rec¬ ords read M. I. T. 50, Tech 24. In the final encounter, the mighty Grant men, their faces grim, their eyes set on that illusive goal—a second win —journeyed to Amherst to compete against their rival to the north, the University of Massachusetts. However, Fate had stacked the deck and in due course, a valiant Tech aggregation was scuttled by the mighty Statesmen to the tune of 46-29. Although Tech took the first event, the 300-yard medley relay, by a more than safe margin through the sterling performance of one. Rod Lancey. who, in the first lap, opened a gap which the Statesmen could not seem to breach. They soon re-established themselves by clinching several of the subsequent events. However, the Boyn¬ ton Hillers, with bulldog tenacity, came back to capture undisputed first in the backstroke and the breastroke. Rod Lan¬ cey and Pete Kahn being the key men in the show. But Massachusetts Uni¬ versity ' s representative on the boards was the outstanding performer in the northern agglomeration, adding a for¬ midable 111 points to the scorebook to insure a Massachussetts win. Looking back over the season ' s per¬ formance by our ' 49 aquatic representa¬ tives, it is difficult to say that there were certain members more outstanding than others. To witness one match would be to understand why anything short of blanket praise of these men is impossi¬ ble. The ' 49 galaxy consisted of Bill Bowen, Butch Brown, Sid Madwed, Dick Olsen, Ev Johnson, Pete Kahn. Tom Hodgett, and Rod Lancey. all of whose exploits have been previously recount¬ ed. and last but not least, Harvey How¬ ell, Tech ' s unsung hero of the boards, whose contortions brought many a round of applause throughout the sea¬ son. Orchids to a spirited team and their very capable coach, Frank Grant. FRESHMAN SWIMMING TEAM: First Row, left to right.- R. Baker, E. Palmer, L. Lutz, P. Quamo. Second Row, left to right: D. Adams, S. Rowe, F. Lux. FRESHMAN SWIMMING TEAM For the first time since the war Tech had a Freshman Swimming Team. When Coach Grant called for candidates, eight hopefuls showed up. Notable among these were Fred Lux and Stew Rowe. Lux holds the New England Schoolboy championship in the 100-yard breast¬ stroke and tried out for the 1948 Olympic swimming team. Rowe swam for one of the Navy ' s teams during the war. The rest of the team composed of Pete Quamo. Don Adams, Bob Baker. Leo Lutz, Ev Palmer, and George Sidell. came along fast. After a few weeks practice. Coach Grant saw that they were ready and scheduled meets with Worcester Junior College and Worcester Academy. In the first meet they tied the Junior College. 32 to 32. Over at the Academy they lost, but only after Lux broke the W. P. I. Freshman and also the Acad¬ emy pool record in the 100-yard breast¬ stroke. They were able to show their class again against the able Sophs. This meet was won by the Frosh, 36 to 30. Coach Grant will be glad to see these boys on his varsity in the coming season. On the mark: Edgar and Conlin of M. I. T., Brown and Madwed of W. P. I. GOLF TEAM: Left to right: R. Baldwin, P. Wentzel, W. Charow, P. Schonning, H. Mo- chon, J. Trainer, R. Sanctuary, D. Quimby. Worcester Tech ' s golf team has had the favor of Dame Fortune thus far. With the advent of an early spring, following a mild winter, the golfers have been able to put in a few extra weeks of pre-season prac¬ tice. Paul Schonning, who is Captain and Manager of the team, predicts a winning season. The squad will be handicapped by the loss of last year ' s ace. Clip Hellig, through graduation, but there is plenty of talent among both the veterans and the newcomers to balance his loss. On April 25th and 29th, two quali¬ fying rounds were shot to pick a starting team, still unannounced at this writing. With this practice, and the stiff qualifying competition. Tech is sure to present a formidable club against all opponents. The squad will jour¬ ney to Amherst on May 7th, where they open the season against Am¬ herst College. In the weeks follow¬ ing they will meet Devens. Boston Unversity, Trinity, Tufts, Clark, Brown, and will wind up the season against New England ' s finest golfers in the New England Intercollegiate Championship. At the beginning of a new season of tennis, the outstanding sentiment of the tennis team is that sunny days will prevail. Still plaguing them are memories of last year ' s stormy spring when they could play only four matches out of seven that had been scheduled. The record for the match¬ es they did play was an even split; wins for Tech over Tufts and the University of Massachusetts, and losses to M. I. T. and Boston Univer¬ sity. Still, the abbreviated schedule never really gave the players a very good idea of just how good their team really was. Coach William B. Wadsworth ex¬ pects this year ' s record to be more impressive, weather permitting. Even though they have suffered a major loss with the graduation of Buddy Dember, last year ' s Captain, the out¬ look is encouraging. All of last year ' s squad except Dember and Niel Fishman have returned, giving the team considerable depth. Strengthened by a couple of prom¬ ising Freshmen competitors and headed by Captain Howie Green, the tennis team shapes up as an im¬ posing outfit. This year ' s matches are against Clark, M. I. T.. the University of Massachusetts, Boston University, Devens, Trinity, Brown, and Tufts. TENNIS TEAM: First Row, left to right: A. Howe, E. Nahikian, H. Green, R. King, D. Krantz.

The Tech Rifle Team, although plagued by the fact that some of their top marksmen will be gradu¬ ated this year and still stinging from a bitter season record of 1 win and 8 defeats, can hardly be called an idle group. Previously the club had scheduled 10 or 12 matches, but since most rifle matches are fired in conjunction with not just one, but several schools, this year ' s number of matches was reduced. As was mentioned previously, sev¬ eral of the club ' s top sharpshooters will hang up their rifles this year. Ranking high among these men is the current team captain, Ed Dion. Ed has been with the club for 4 years and contributed in no small measure to this organization ' s ac¬ tivities. Another man was Bob Gow¬ ing, who consistently hit in the top three for the Tech aggregation. Also in this select group of ' 49ers was one Jack Malloy. As for this year ' s record, it was somewhat disappointing but in an¬ swer to this, the hearties of the Rifle Club reply, Wait till next year. ' ' As a matter of fact, this reply is not mere hearsay. Ed Green, a second year man at Tech, has been one of the most consistent scorers of the ' 49 sea¬ son and much of the 1950 hope has been placed in him. Also taking up the cudgel will be the new Presi¬ dent, Jim Marston; the Secretary- Treasurer, Don Youngdahl; and Earl Klaubert, the club ' s new Manager. One factor contributing to the marked improvement in student spirit on the campus today has been the fine work of a much improved cheering squad. Here they are shown in action at one of the home basketball games. CHEERLEADERS First Row, left to right: A. L. Fisher, W. T. Ba¬ ker, W. D. Allen, Jr., J. L. Hawley. Second Row, left to right: R. A.

Parks {Trustees of John Boynton Fund The work of the Administration and its officers is varied and extensive, but all of it is essential to the efficient operation of the college. Among the many tasks to be accomplished are the interpreta¬ tion of the Institute ' s rules, filing and recording all types of information and material, care and upkeep of the buildings and grounds, and the furtherance of public relations. Because of the promptness and effi¬ ciency with which they perform the multitudinous tasks, we, as students, are scarcely aware of their existence. The Administration is certainly to be complimented for its fine work in co-ordinating the activity here at Tech.

This enables the student to receive individual help, and consequently a better education. Partly because of this condition, Worcester Tech has been able to maintain a high rating among the engi¬ neering schools. Another contributing factor is that several of the faculty were formerly practicing engineers or consultants for industrial concerns prior to joining the faculty. Many continue to do a limited amount of consulting work in addition to their teaching duties. Students find new subject matter much easier to under¬ stand when illustrated by the practical experiences of the instructor. Then, too, many of the faculty are W. P. I. graduates themselves and have first hand knowledge of the student’s problems. Thus, by these and other ways, Tech, through its faculty, is endeavoring to give the student a sound engineering education.

His many accomplishments and his thirty-four years of service evoked respect from all the students. He was born in Hartford on March 9, 1883, and was graduated from Yale in 1905. He received his Doctor’s degree from the Sheffield School at Yale in 1912 and, shortly thereafter, came to Tech. At the age of fifty-five, when most men are content with meditating in their favorite chair, Dr. Plimpton became avidly interested in flying. This soon became his favorite hobby, and the “flying professor” spent many hours in the air at the controls of his own plane. Dr. Plimpton is survived by his wife, the former Ethel May Williams, whom he married in 1944.

Checking the refractive index of glass, or liquids, with a Refraclometer is one of the more common applications of optics in industry. OPTICS in ENGINEERING Spurs Industrial Progress In industry many of yesterday’s mysteries are today’s open books— thanks to optics. Many of to¬ morrow’s industrial problems will also be solved through the applica¬ tion of optical science. Worcester Polytechnic Institute with its excellent courses and mod¬ ern optical laboratories is well equipped to train future engineers in the science of optics. And as future engineers, many of you Worcester Tech students with an understanding of optics will be well prepared to cope with indus¬ trial complexities and apply your knowledge of this science in the interests of industrial advancement.

It is forged from 75-S aluminum alloy and is one of the largest die forgings ever attempted in this difficult material. The availability of such forgings opens new opportunities for aircraft builders to simplify and improve many structures which heretofore of necessity have been built-up assemblies—all of which will promote in¬ creased quality and performance, together with decreased costs, and thus further enhance the superiority of American aircraft design.
