Schwieger COeclb ication The Class of 1951 respectfully dedicates this yearbook to Professor Francis Joseph Adams. A graduate of JF ore ester Polytechnic Insti¬ tute in 1904, “Pop” Adams has been associated with the faculty of the Electrical Engineering Department continuously since that date. Pro¬ fessor Adams lias always set for the student the same high standards of thought and character that he imposes upon himself. To a man possessing a rare measure of warmth, ability, and personal integrity we dedi¬ cate this volume. On September 22, 1947, 203 of us gathered in Alden for our aca¬ demic overture; we knew nothing, we hoped for much. On Com¬ mencement Day, 122 of the origi¬ nal group, representing 60.1% of the class, will receive their diplo¬ mas. It is interesting to conjecture what has become of the other 81. Chronologically our class history would read something like this: The Class of 1951 won the Goat’s Head twice and never lost a Rope Full or Paddle Rush. In our fresh¬ man year, our football team, sparked by youngsters Stan Miller and Andy Freeland, shut out the Class of ’50, i2-o. The following year we were not so fortunate; ’52 shaded us 13-12. Our record in soccer is 0-1-1; our first year we were blanked 2-0 by the experi¬ enced Sophs, our second we were held to a 2-2 deadlock in a game which extended into two overtimes and near darkness. Outstanding for the ’51 hooters were Bob Ful¬ mer, Sam Winther, and Ken Mayo. Tom Hodgett coached the team in the second year. Despite the fact that ’51 has more than its share of characters and beer-hall Barrymores, we were never solid hox-office when it came to Tech Carnivals. Our two pro¬ ductions, Hellzapoppin’ written by Bob Wolff and Owen Ott, and Pall Bearers, They Satisfy scripted by Bob Allen and Bill Baker, nevertheless were outstanding dra¬ matic efforts. Andy Freeland was the recipient of the Skull Freshman Award, pre¬ sented annually by the senior soci¬ ety to the outstanding member of the new class. Rick Ferrari was runner-up for the trophy. Certainly one of the outstanding class achievements was our con¬ sistently fine showing in the Inter- Class Basketball competition. De¬ feated in the finals the first year, the courtiers of ’51 swept through to the championship in the next three years. Prominent in a tri¬ umphant cause were Richie How¬ ard, Andy Freeland, Don and Walt Kolodne, John George, Jack Dil¬ lon, Pete Groop, and Halsey Griswold. I11 our freshman year, 120 of our number were pledged and initiated into the nine national fraternities represented on campus. The Class of 1951 has heen char¬ acterized by strong and active leadership and exceptionally close class spirit through its years at the Institute. Our first leader was Jim Macy, who as Class Chairman be¬ gan our organization and com¬ pleted the writing and acceptance of our constitution. Our first com¬ plete slate of officers was headed by Andy Freeland as President, assisted by Richie Howard, Vice- President; Andy Andersen, Secre¬ tary; Frank MacPherson, Treas¬ urer; and Gerry Atkinson, His¬ torian. Our Tech Council dele¬ gates have been Pete Groop and Carl Johannson. An old and respected Tech tra¬ dition was reborn when ’51 re¬ instated the Freshman Hazing pro¬ gram. Previous classes had taken a single look at the size and pug¬ nacity of the incoming men and had decided to forego any hazing tactics. A hazing committee, head¬ ed by Phil O’Connor, drew up a code of behaviour, containing, among others, the stipulations that the Freshmen should wear beanies and bow ties, carry Tech Bibles at all times, and know quite thor- oughly the Tech songs and cheers. Infractions were penalized by total immersion in the baptismal waters of Institute Pond. In the class elections held at the termination of the sophomore year, Rick Ferrari was elected to take the gavel as Class President. Re¬ maining executive offices were again filled by the incumbents: Howard, Andersen, and MacPherson. Considerable emphasis and effort in our junior year was spent in the preparation for and execution of the Junior Prom, the first “Coronation Ball”. Queen for a day was Miss Joanne Rebert, es¬ corted by Bob Baldwin. Chair¬ men for the regal event were Gos- selin, MacPherson, Allen, Freeland, Bassett, Anderson, Howell, Horton, Esten, and C. Johnson. Music was provided by Enoch Light and orchestra. As Juniors, many in our class became increasingly active in extra-curricular fields. Owen Ott became president of the Masque, which in our tenure has produced Ten Little Indians, Command De¬ cision, See How They Run, and John Loves Maty, Gerry Atkinson was Editor-in-Chief of the Tech News and president of the Tech Council, Art Fischer was elected president of the Glee Club. Walter Dennen headed the Peddler staff. Bill Dewey skippered the Nautical Association and Bob Allen direct¬ ed the activities of the Student Christian Association. President of the Newman Club was Bill Mu- fatti. The following members of ’51 were presidents of the various honor and professional societies: Bob Busch, Tail Beta Pi; George Saltus and Roger Wye, Eta Kappa Nu; Walt Dennen and Don Lewis, Pi Delta Epsilon; Harvey Howell, ASME; Carl Johannson, AIChE; Karl Kalbfleisch, AIEE; and Don Kolodne, ASCE. At Skull’s Spring tapping cere¬ mony ten from the Class of 1951 were chosen for the Institute’s highest honor: Gerry Atkinson, Lee Bassett, Bob Busch, Rick Fer¬ rari, Andy Freeland, Pete Groop, Harvey Howell, Don Kolodne, Jim Rich, and Roger Wye. Tapped the following Fall were John George, Bob Fulmer, and Walt Kolodne. Tau Beta Pi, whose ideal is “to mark in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their Alma Mater by distinguished scholarship and exemplary char¬ acter . . .” pledged Gerry Atkinson, Lee Bassett, Bob Busch, Rick Fer¬ rari, Andy Freeland, Jim Grenier, Halsey Griswold, Harvey Howell, Donald Kolodne, Leo Lemere, Nick Nakikian, and Roger Wye. Later added to the society were Charles Bouchard, Dick Coffey, Pete Groop, Rod Lancey, Ed Lewis, Don Lewis, John McKeogh, Tony Stefanov, Rog Swanson, and Henry Taylor. Pi Delta Epsilon, the national journalism fraternity pinned white carnation and lead type on Andy Andersen, Gerry Atkinson, Dick Coffey, Bill Cunneen, Walt Den¬ nen, Frank Flood, Tom Hodgett, Bill Horney, Charles Lorenz, Paul O’Neil, and Paul Radasch. Eta Kappa Nu, Gamma Delta chapter, an honor society in the field of electrical engineering, was founded on the Worcester campus in the Spring of ’50. A roll of the charter members includes Andy Andersen, Gerry Atkinson, Charles Bouchard, Andy Freeland, Jim Grenier, Leon Hoogasian, John Marley, George Saltus, Don Stock- well, Roger Swanson, Joe Thomas, and Roger Wye. Initiated in their senior year were Dick Brow, Dex¬ ter Cate, Irv Orrell, and Jack Writer. In the senior year, Sigma Xi, a society which has as its objective the promotion of research work in scientific fields, selected as asso¬ ciate members Gerry Atkinson, Charles Bouchard, Bob Busch, Bob Cochran, Andy Freeland, Jim Grenier, Don Kolodne, Bill Linder, John McKeogh, Nick Nahikian, Don Sands, John Simonds, and Joe Thomas. It has been our privilege as a class to play a significant part in the upward trend of Worcester Tech sports. Those of us present in Springfield on that November evening in 1948 when Tech de¬ feated A.I.C. for its first grid vic¬ tory since 1944 will long remember it. I’m sure. The succeeding rec¬ ords of Worcester’s football teams, while playing essentially the same schedule, is an indication of their improvement. In ’47 Tech had a 0-6 record; in ’48 1-4-1; in ’49 3-3; and in ’50 4-3, a winning season. Advancement and improved cali¬ ber of play has been commensurate in other varsity sports. It will be a long time before the glory that surrounds the ex¬ ploits of two great Tech athletes will tarnish; that pair being, of course, Rick Ferrari and Richie Howard. As Coach McNulty phrased it at one of the Sports Banquets, the pleasure in knowing sportsmen o f their stamp is that they are men first and athletes second. And Mac was applying this not only to the two named above but to many others in many sports who have played their final game for Tech. Rick and Alan Hansen were co¬ captains of the football team in ’49; Don and Walt Kolodne ran the team in ’50. Other members of ’51 who wore the crimson and grey in the Fall were Andy Free¬ land, Stan Miller, Dewey Lund, Ralph Auerbach, Ralph Gabarro, and Jim Rich. The basketball roster is headed by Richie Howard, who captained the squad as a Junior and paired with Andy Freeland to co-captain Tech as a Senior. Richie played four years of brilliant ball and is Tech’s most well-known and re¬ spected player in the Worcester area. Playing beside Richie and Andy, was hard-working pivot man Walt Kolodne. On the baseball diamond, in Tech ' s third major sport onr class was represented by captain John George, Don Stewart, and Andy Freeland in the infield, Rick Fer¬ rari in the outer pasture, and Ken Wright and George Messenger on the mound. Also adding to Tech’s prestige in the Fall is the soccer team, and men of ’51 were largely responsible for the team’s successes over the past four years. Outstanding for the hooters was halfback Bob Ful¬ mer, who captained the squad in his senior year. Packing the scor¬ ing punch up front were Manny Ozbas, Walt Bretthauer, and Olie Lunde, while Tom Ffodgett and Kirk Leonard at fullback and Joe Sisson in the nets strengthened the the defense. Over a four year span the team’s record has been 0-7, 1-5, 2-5, and 3-2-1. In Worcester’s minor sports ’5iers were prominent: in Track, Harv Howell, Hugh Lovell, Don Sasek, Herb Hayes, Bob Fulmer, Jack Dillon, Jack Reid, Stillman Mackay, Bob Rodier, A 1 Anderson, Kirk Leonard, and Halsey Gris¬ wold; in Swimming, Marshall Brown, Rod Lancey, Herb Hayes, Ev Johnson, and Tom Hodgett. Ed Nahikian captained the tennis squad, teaming with Gerry Atkin¬ son, Sam Winther, and Manny Pappas. Bob Baldwin captained the Golf team. Phil O’Connor led the exuberant cheerleaders, in chorus with Bill Baker, Art Fischer, and Owen Ott. A unique form of athletic en¬ deavour was the Boynton Hill Lacrosse Club, organized, trained, and inspired by Jim Rich, which without official sanction turned in an unequalled winning perform¬ ance with a 15-3-1 performance. Backing up Rich are Auerbach, Don Knowlton, Walt Bretthauer, Ken Mayo, Paul Radasch, Carl Luz, and Dick Foltz. And so here we are. We have smiled through Sanford Riley cook¬ ing and dawn bull-sessions, fra¬ ternity initiations. Goat’s Head soirees, informal chapel services at Tim Bowlers’, the good Doctor Masius and two interminable years of physics, innumerable beer bouts and stag parties, “that Junior year”, and the suspense which comes as a prelude to Commence¬ ment. We have seen the passing of the Saturday class, the production of a highly entertaining and effective film eulogizing the virtues of Tech by the Alumni Office, the passing of the era of the veteran and the return to normalcy, and the im¬ minence of another national emer¬ gency and a heavy draft demand. We came early in the morning and toiled long in the vineyard. WILLIAM JOHN ACHRAMOWICZ “Bill” ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING A.I.E.E. 3, 4. Permanent Mailing Address 87 Ward St., Worcester, Mass.

The first three days at Tech were spent in orientation from which we learned of a rival, the class of “53”. We were to follow a set of fifteen rules which were set down by the Sophomores. We also learned of the “Gem” of the campus—THE GOAT S HEAD. On the first day of school we bedecked our¬ selves by law and strolled out on campus. What a sight we were with red and gray beanies with matching bow ties and garters, rope belts and pants rolled up 14 inches from the ground. We still remember that the Sophomores could not make up their minds whether it was red day or gray day. Nevertheless, we learned to tie a bow tie. In the first Freshmen-Sophomore contest for the Goat’s Head, the Sophomores, using their experience, won the Paddle Rush after a stiff Hattie. Our next meeting, which was the Rope Pull, the Sophomores again were victorious and dragged us through Institute Pond. However, at our next meeting, the football game, it was a different story, for the Sophs went down to defeat 7-6 to an inspired Frosh eleven. On the next day however, the Sophs retaliated and we went down to defeat 4-1 to their soccer team. At mid-year our class was increased by twenty- one new freshmen. Soon, however, old rivalry sprang up again and the Frosh reluctantly de¬ feated the Sophomores in basketball 45-41 and swimming 43-23. However, the Sophomores came back and we were beaten in the bowling and rifle matches. The sophs also showed a little more talent and were chosen winners of the Tech Carnival. Although the Sophomores are at present ahead of us for the Goat’s Head, we are still very much in the running with tennis, golf and track yet to be run off.

In the first Freshman- Sophomore battle, the Sophomores proved that practice makes perfect by taking the Pacldle Rush. Overconfident from this victory, they soon faced a series of set-backs. In retaliation we took a 7-0 victory in football and then pro¬ ceeded to give the Sophs a thorough cleansing in the cold clear waters of Institute Pond in a near record time of six and one cpiarter minutes. The Sophomores now realized that they had underestimated our class as once again victory was ours; this time in basketball. Finally, the Sophs tasted victory as they won swimming, bowling and the rifle match. Without delay, the Freshmen came back and, under the leader¬ ship of Don Oliver, won the Tech Carnival Cup by a unanimous decision of the judges. After putting up a tough struggle, the Sophomores finally nosed us out winning the Goat’s Head by a score of 10-9. Although defeated, we were not discouraged as the Sophomores soon discovered when they realized that the Goat’s Head had fallen into the hands of the Freshmen. Near the end of the year, election of class officers was held. The following men were elected as our class officers: Dave Hathaway, Treasurer; and Mike Shebeck, Tech Council Representative; Harry Brown, President; and Dave Holmes, Vice-President. At the Spring Sport’s Banquet of that year, Dave Holmes was awarded the Skull Trophy with Mike Shebeck receiving Honorable Mention. This past Fall the Freshmen were aptly intro¬ duced to life on the Hill as Stan Stanton and his Hazing Battalion gave a streamlined look to the indoctrination. Not only this, but we ob¬ tained immediate possession of the Goat’s Head by solving the riddle presented to us by Skull. After our easy victory in the padclle rush we introduced the Class of ’54 to Institute Pond via the rope pull. One of the most thrilling events of the year was the frosh-soph football game with the freshmen obtaining their first victory by defeating us 7-6. The battle then became touch-and-go with the frosh winning swimming and basketball while we scored vic¬ tories in soccer and bowling. Again under the supervision of Don Oliver, the sophs retained the Tech Carnival trophy with that superior production, “Chicago”. In the field of varsity athletics the Class of ’53 has contributed much to the ranks of Tech teams. Ted Fritz, Jim McKay, Dave Holmes, George Abdow, John Gregory and Mike Shebek stand among the gridiron mighties. On the basketball court Harry Brown, Hank Vasil, Danny Hoch and Shebek represent our class, while Phil Kaminsky, Stan Andrukonis, Brown and Shebek carry the class banner on the base¬ ball diamond. Among Tech’s track squad can be found milers Bud Madigan and Don Post. Ian Davidson, Fred DeBoer, Dave Beech, and Ken Haaland are numbered among the soccer hooters. Scanning the minor sports reveals swim¬ mers Dave Jenney, Sy Vershon and Mel Seddon, and tennis ace A 1 Mclnnis as representatives of the sophomore class.

The class of 1952 entered its third year at Tech with Harold Althen, pres.; Warren Palm¬ er, vice-pres.; Ed Samolis, secretary; and Bob Chapman, treasurer. Bill Mehalick and Bill Lloyd were the Tech Council representatives. One of the first details attended to was the Goat’s Head, which had been won after an up¬ hill struggle which finally ended with a victory by our tennis team for the deciding point in the competition. We were very ably represented on the varsity teams during fall and winter sports. At the fall Sport’s Banquet, Joe Jiunnies and Ed Majewski were elected football co-captains; Warren Palm¬ er, soccer captain; and Ron Thompson, captain of the cross-country team. Interclass basketball was a repeat performance of the freshman year. Once again the class of ’51 outscored our team in a close contest. A very enjoyable weekend was passed on the occasion of the Interfraternity Snow Ball, but naturally our thoughts turned to the biggest social event of the season which was still to come. Under the leadership of Charlie Thrower and his committee, plans were made for the Junior Prom. The second annual Coro¬ nation Ball was truly a memorable affair. Looking to the future, the big question is how many will be able to return for the senior year? Several members of the class have already been called to active duty and many more are deferred until the end of the school year. We can only hope that enough men will return to make the coming year as successful and enjoy¬ able as the past three have been. Althen, Codings, Dickinson, Jams, Lanou, Reid, St. Louis, Samolis, Sarli, and Seidel be¬ came members of Tau Beta Pi. Althen, Chapman, Jiunnies, Mehalick, St. Louis, and Willard were tapped for Skull. DIRECTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1952 Adams, Donald H. Adamsky, Robert F.

Morgan Helge S. Johnson The prestige of a school depends to a certain extent on the Adminis¬ tration and its officers and the way in which they discharge their functions. The prestige of Worcester Polytechnic Institute is high among the colleges of the United States. Need more be said? Their work which extends into many fields often requires expert handling. Of the many functions of the Administration, a few are interpretation of the Institute’s rules, care and upkeep of the buildings and the furtherance of public relations. Because of their efficiency, one seldom hears about the administration, but that does not mean that they are inactive.

Of these, five are degree granting depart¬ ments while the other five supply the essential non-engineering courses which are so necessary for the rounding out of an engineering education. The heads of the departments are responsible for administration of their own departments. In addition, they teach and advise students taking courses in their respective departments. Their willingness to see students and to discuss their problems, is one of the many reasons why students at Worcester Tech have such a high regard for the Staff. Theodore Harding Morgan Professor of Electrical Engineering and Head of Department Andrew Hall Holt Professor of Civil Engineering and Head of Department Gleason Harvey MacCullough Professor of Mechanical Engineer¬ ing and Head of Department Ernest Dana Wilson Professor of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry and Head of Department Raymond Kurtz Morley Professor of Mathematics and Head of Department Allen Elwood Parker Professor of Physics and Head of Department Albert James Schwieger Professor of Economics, Govern¬ ment and Business and Head of Department Percy Robert Carpenter Professor of Physical Education and Head of Department Leland Leavitt Atwood Professor of History and Modern Languages and Head of Department Edwin Higginbottom Professor of English and Head of Department The faculty of Worcester Tech is over 100, thus giving a faculty student ratio of about one instructor for every eight students. Because of this, students are able to get individual help with their problems if necessary. Many of the instructors are themselves graduates of W.P.I. and are therefore in a very good position to understand the problems of the student engineers. In addition, many mem¬ bers of the faculty have had experience in industrial and consulting work. This enables them to teach with a knowl¬ edge of what is required of the newly graduated engineer in industry. This is a very important phase of teaching. For these reasons and many others, Tech is giving its students a sound fundamental engineering education.

This is rightly so, as any man chosen to its ranks is one who has done his Alma Mater proud. Consideration of personality, character, ability, and the contribution to the college are all made in selecting members. Virtually, it is the greatest honor an undergraduate can attain at Tech. The society plays an important part on the campus scene as shown by its objectives, that is, to further Tech spirit and to stimulate worthwhile undergraduate activities. Its presence is felt in a leadership capacity at many student affairs and gatherings. Skull has been a part of Tech since 1911 . Being a secret society its ceremonies and ritual arc unknown except to those in its fold. The fact that only eleven men may be chosen from the Junior class also indicates the great honor of entering Skull. The ceremony to pledge new members A. F. Freeland 1’. Groop H. L. Howell D. Kolodne J. E. Rich R. E. Ferrari L. H. Bassett G. F. Atkinson R. A. Busch is held at an assembly in the spring and is very im¬ pressive. The members of Skull, donned in black robes, line up on the stage. Then, each in turn, slowly passes through the audience, and upon reaching the man marked for membership signifies pledging by a firm tap on the shoulder. Several faculty members also claim title to Skull. These men initiated in the past are: Admiral Wat Tyler Cluverius, Dean Francis W. Roys, Doctor Finest 1). Wil¬ son, Doctor Albert J. Schvvieger, Professor Arthur J. Knight, Professor Hobart H. Newell, Professor M. Law¬ rence Price, Professor Carl G. Johnson, Professor Donald G. Downing, Professor Edwin Higginbottom, Donald E. Smith, Coach Robert W. Pritchard, Coach Charles R. McNulty, and Professor William R. Grogan. In keeping with its aim to further Tech spirit, Skull presents a trophy each year to that freshman who it feels has done most for the college. However, even this bestowal does not signify that future membership in Skull is assured. W. J.

Chapter of Tan Beta Pi was organized in 1910 , twenty-five years after the original chapter had been founded at Lehigh University. It is the purpose of the Society to mark in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their Alma Mater by dis¬ tinguished scholarship and exemplary character. Distin¬ guished scholarship, while the primary requisite for admission, is not the sole criterion. After the scholastic requirements have been fulfilled, the selection is based on integrity, breadth of interest both inside and outside of engineering, adaptability and un¬ selfish activity. In order to be eligible for election to Tan Beta Pi, Seniors must be in the upper fifth of their class and Juniors in the upper eighth. Two pledgings take place annually, 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. As a pledge project, each pledge has to obtain the signature of each member of Tau Beta Pi upon a card attached to the Bent. Soon after pledging, a huge replica of the Bent always finds its way onto a prominent spot on the Tech campus. Tau Beta Pi is the leading engineering honor society. There are eighty-five undergraduate chapters, and over 65,000 members have been initiated in leading technical colleges. The officers of Tau Beta Pi this year were the following: Robert A. Busch, president; Richard E. Ferrari, vice-president; Roger E. Wye, recording secretary; Leon H. Bassett, corresponding secretary; Gerald F. Atkinson, treasurer; and Leo E. Lemere, cataloguer.

St. Louis SIGMA XI Sigma Xi began its illustrious existence in 1886 at Cornell University. In regard to engi¬ neering, it is comparable to the liberal arts honor socitey, Phi Beta Kappa. Since the formation of the national society, well over twenty thousand members have been initiated into its ranks. The chapter at Tech was first founded in 1908 . Sigma Xi was founded for the purpose of recognizing those undergraduates who have shown by their high scholarship and achieve¬ ments promise as future scientists in the field of research. In addition this society strives to promote research in all scientific fields. Seniors pledged to the society become asso¬ ciate members while the right to full member¬ ship is reserved to faculty members and gradu¬ ate students. However, asso¬ ciate members receive most of the benefits of the society. Once a year in the fall, pledging is held for the select group. High scholastic averages and research ability of the student is the basis for selection. Regular meetings are held periodically at which time authoritative speakers present technical material of special interest. In the past, some of these meetings have been held in conjunction with other out¬ standing societies. The meetings are open to all interested in learning about latest technical developments.

ETA KAPPA NU Gamma Delta Chapter of the national elec¬ trical engineering honor society, Eta Kappa Nu Association, has celebrated its first anniversary after a year of concerted effort and remarkable success. Installed June 2, 1951, the chapter became the 50th of the Association, now boast¬ ing of 53 college and 12 alumni groups. The honor of membership in the society is given to those electrical engineering under¬ graduates in the upper third of the Senior class and the upper fourth of the Junior class, who have demonstrated marked ability, as evi¬ denced by scholarship and individual attain¬ ments, and who possess qualities which indi¬ cate success in their chosen profession. Eta Kappa Nu was founded in 1904 at the University of Illinois by a group headed by Maurice L. Carr. While the qualifications for membership stimulate and reward high scholar¬ ship, Eta Kappa Nu has a far broader purpose than merely to award a badge of distinction. As conceived by its founders and as carried forward by its membership during more than two generations, its aim is to assist its members throughout their lives in becoming better citi¬ zens. In return, it is another purpose of the organization that its membership be a con¬ structive force, helping fellow members and non-members alike in improving the standards of the profession, the courses of instruction, and the institutions where its chapters are established. Last Summer, chapter President George Saltus resumed active status as a petty officer in the U. S. Navy off Korea. This left the infant chapter dismayed only momentarily. Soon the responsible office was filled by the then Vice-President, Roger Wye. The other offi¬ cers are: Recording Secretary, Andrew Andersen; Corresponding Secretary, Gerry Atkinson; Treas¬ urer, Roger Swanson; BRIDGE Correspondent, Charles Bouchard; and Faculty Adviser, Mr. Owen Kennedy.

Wye PI DELTA EPSILON Pi Delta Epsilon is the national honorary collegiate journalism fraternity. The local chapter was founded only three years ago. Since Pi Delta Epsilon is pledged to promote student participation in all undergraduate publications, it is composed of members from both the Tech Nexus and the Peddler Staffs. In addition, members of the Faculty and others thought to be aiding the cause of Pi Delta Epsilon are also elected. The honorary members of the organi¬ zation include Prof. William R. Grogan, Neil T. Heffer- nan, Dr. Wilmer L. Kranich, Prof. John H. Mackenzie, Prof. Albert J. Schwieger, Dean Paul R. Swan, George V. Uihlein, Jr., and Dr. Ernest D. Wilson. The purposes of Pi Delta Epsilon are to elevate the cause of journalism, to encourage loyalty to the Alma Mater, to aid in every way all student publications and to reward the participants in these activities for their efforts and accomplishments by admission into the organization. Pledging takes place twice each year, in the Fall and in the Spring, at a school assembly. At this time the pledges are given a white carnation and a printer’s slug on which the words “Pi Delta Epsilon” are cut. They wear the slug until the time of their initiation. Meetings are held regu¬ larly at which matters of interest to Tech publica¬ tions are discussed and methods for overcoming problems are devised. It has become a custom for Pi Delta Epsilon to sponsor an “Inter-Frater¬ nity Song Fest” every year. The winning fra¬ ternity is awarded a tro¬ phy which it keeps for a year. The election of officers takes place at the last meeting of each academic year. This year ' s officers were as follows: Donald C. Lewis, president; Thomas Hodgett, vice-president; Richard A. Coffey, Jr., secretary; William L. Horney, treasurer; and Paid M. O ' Neil, historian. Prof. William R. Grogan was the faculty advisor. MEMBERS A. C. Andersen W. B. Dennen, Jr. W. L. Horney G. F.

THE I.H.E.E. “To create and promulgate a healthy aca¬ demic spirit and actively to participate in worthy college endeavours, to provide an atmos¬ phere of good fellowship and joyous comraderie, to encourage a fuller social life, to stimulate and nurture a cultured interest in the Seven Lively Arts, and to prevent an oversupply of maltose beverages within the city limits of Worcester . . .” The immortal lines above are abstracted from the Grand Charter of Alpha Chapter of I.H.E.E., a secret and exclusive society existing within the Electrical Engineer¬ ing Department of Worcester Polytechnic Institute. The history of the young group may be traced to certain inspired disciples of the Class of 1949. In the old, happy days of Saturday classes, certain Senior E. E.’s with kindred tastes would wend their way to the Boynton, there to while away the idle hours in philosophical discus¬ sion. Gradually ideas began to take shape with¬ in the band of putting their relations on a firmer and more permanent basis. Reaching for an old wine list, the Founding Fathers care¬ fully copied out the first draft of the Charter and Constitution of the I.H.E.E. Indicative of the scope of the organization is its committee posts; Choreographer, Song Di¬ rector, and Poet Laureate, and its manifold activities, which include a skit of broad humor presented at the Lacrosse Show, Swiss group singing at the Club Varsity, and a basketball game staged with the ACHERS, which punctu¬ ated the Formal Weekend. The I.H.E.E. holds weekly meetings at which important business is transacted. G. F. Atkinson R. W. Baldwin A. B. Brown W. A. Ellsworth, Jr. P. B. Edwards A. F. Freeland MEMBERS R. D. Fulmer, Jr. R.

ACHERS “Malt does more than Milton can To justify God’s way to man—” A. E. Houseman During the Fall of 1950 the student body was enriched with the spirit and color of a new organization. It was in October that two enter¬ prising and enthusiastic Juniors, struck with th e exigency of an informal safety valve to relieve scholastic pressure, met before the small group of founders to present their proposal and aspi¬ rations. The place of meeting was selected for its prevailing spirit of camaraderie, which is so much a part of this unique society. A prop¬ er place for the founding, indeed, for one must “say Grace” before being served. Although its membership is restricted to undergraduate chemical engineers, its outstand¬ ing spirit is continually being displayed, such as during the Inter-fraternity Ball week-end. At this time the Achers opposed the IHEE in the first of a series of annual basketball games, the game affording an interlude of risible enter¬ tainment and demonstrating the campus-wide interest of the Achers. During the Spring three men were pledged at a striking ceremony in the unit-operations laboratory. Those chosen for the honor were: Gary Geissler, A 1 Mahassel and Phil Cromme- lin, men who have indicated a sincere interest in good fellowship and Joie de Vivre. Symbolic of the Aspirant Chemical Engi¬ neers’ Risibility Society are the black derbies, red suspenders, white shirts and black-velvet string ties, worn by all members during the day of a meeting.

PEDDLER “A major tenet in advertising states that if the importance of a product is to be stressed properly, the consumer should first be given a high type of entertainment.” And thus it was that the Peddler, in an effort to interest the students in the yearbook, presented their annual “good will” assembly in the fall of 1950. Besides the usual contents, this 1951 yearbook contains four new sections: classmates who are in the service, photographs and articles dealing with the background and standings of Inter- Fraternity Sports, graduate students at work on their projects, and a greater social coverage. This yearbook is not valuable to the Seniors alone but to every class on the Hill. A student who has in his possession the four yearbooks printed during his college career has a com¬ mentary of his life at school that can be read and re-read many times in future years. In such a collection are the memories of sore throats from thrilling football games, flashbacks of ex¬ citing moments in the Alumni Gymnasium on basketball nights, the twitching of old wounds accumulated in Freshman-Sophomore competi¬ tion, dreams of soft lit dance floors, and above all the never to be forgotten Tech spirit which is the foundation for the whole book. This year’s staff of: Walter Dennen, Editor- in-Chief; Donald Lewis, Managing Editor; Paul O’Neil, Business Manager; Dr. Albert Schwieger, Faculty Advisor; and a multitude of writers and ad chasers, hope their efforts have been success¬ ful in bringing to you this 1951 Peddler.

Each week the staff of the paper has conscien¬ tiously gathered and presented “all the news that’s fit to print”. During the past year the paper was enhanced by the display of a greater photo coverage, especially that of the athletic contests held on Alumni Field. Once again this year, according to tradition, the winter and spring formals were covered with special edi¬ tions lampooning life at Tech. The unique Daily Record edition with its scandalous but spectacular news for the winter formal certainly created the desired humorous effect. The high rating of the paper in collegiate circles is indicated by its membership in both the Intercollegiate Press and the Associated Collegiate Press. These organizations are com¬ posed of those college papers which are espe¬ cially active and present their material in a professional manner. Much credit must be given the staff which did such a capable job throughout the past year. These men were: Editor-in-Chief, Gerald F. Atkinson; Managing Editor, Donald C. Lewis; News Editor, Richard A. Coffey; Feature Editor, Paul M. O’Neil; Secretary, Andrew C. Ander¬ son; Sports Editor, Richard E. Ferrari and William J. Cimonetti; Business Manager, Wil¬ liam L. Horney; Advertising Manager, Thomas Hodgett; Circulation Manager, William J. Cunneen.

TECH COUNCIL The Tech Council is the main directive organization of student activities on the Worces¬ ter Tech campus. It is dedicated to the collabo¬ ration of the student body and the faculty in the functions of the entire school. In carrying out this task, which it does competently, it is exemplary of democratic action. The Council is comprised of two classes of membership, the ex-officio and elective. 1 he ex-officio members are the president of the Institute and the presidents of the classes, clubs, and associations on the Hill. I he elective mem¬ bership consists of two faculty members and ten undergraduate members elected from the respective classes, the president of the Council being a senior who is elected by the entire stu¬ dent body. Meetings are held bi-weekly in the Green Room in Alden Memorial. At these regular and well attended meetings, any problems, ques¬ tions, and complaints of the students are fully discussed and, if possible, expediently settled. In addition to its function as a steering com¬ mittee, the Council also has control, directly or indirectly, of many 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. It has, for example been discussing the possibility of establishing a permanent goat’s head committee to settle any disputes arising from its possession. I he Coun¬ cil has also voted Worcester Tech a member of the Intercollegiate Council of Worcester, which promises to stimulate intercollegiate activity in Worcester. Thus, as a student-faculty linkage, the Tech Council has all student activities brought under the control of a central governing organization.

MASQUE With Owen Ott as Thespian leader and E. W. Hollows as advisor, the Masque, during 1950 and 1951, continued to progress steadily up¬ ward, under the realm of new improvements. The organization got off to a fast start on November 21, when, at a meeting of the club it was decided to combine the business, and also to revise the point system, only those who have accomplished the most for the organization in credit hours of work will be awarded their keys. On December 8 and 9, “The Intercollegiate Drama Revue” was presented for the first time in Worcester at Alden Memorial Auditorium. A “brain child” of Gus Gosselin and Owen Ott, the dramatic progam presented four one-act plays put on by Clark, Worcester State Teach¬ ers, Holy Cross, and Worcester Tech. The Boynton Hill actors blended their talents in a farce entitled “Scrambled Eggs”. Charles Hedenstadt ably acted as student director. One of the oldest and best loved traditions of the Masque is the annual presentation which is given during the formal weekend. This year the club presented “John Loves Mary”, which provided a very entertaining evening. The cast consisted of Owen Ott, John Gregory, Carl Luz, Hank Demarest, John Leach, Ralph Auerbach, Ann Sweeney, Jean Leslie, and Beverley Brooks. Front row, left to right: D. Eisenberg, R.

Green, opened this year’s heavy schedule in November with its annual concert at the Hopedale Com¬ munity House with the Girls’ Glee Club from Becker Junior College. In January the W.P.I. songsters journeyed to Storrs, Connecticut, where they gave a combined concert with the UConn Glee Club. The next month another concert was given with UConn, this time at Alden Memorial with Worcester acting as host. The second week in April, the combined W.P.I. and Becker Glee Clubs presented a con¬ cert in the Civic Music Series at Horticultural Hall in Worcester. As an added attraction in this concert, George K. Borski, accompanist for the Tech Glee Club, presented a fine program of piano solos. The next two weekends found the club on the road giving concerts at the House in the Pines and Bridgewater State Teachers College. In addition to these and other regular concerts, the Glee Club sang at various special assemblies during the year. The W.P.I. Octet also had a busy year sing¬ ing at concerts, assemblies, and at two formal dances. The officers of the club for this year were: Arthur Fisher, president; Stillman Mackay, vice- president; Thomas McComiskey, secretary; Richard Englund and Leigh Hickcox, librarians.

MARCHING BAND When the Tech Band goes through its pol¬ ished performances between the halves at foot¬ ball games we wonder if maybe the Lynchmen have secretly been rehearsing solidly throughout the summer in preparation for their precision formation and smart martial air and has heard their degree of musical perfection might easily suspect that they had. After a full season of performances on the football field, the band takes a short rest only to make its appearance again at all the home basketball games. Here we find the ultimate in musical precision timing. During the minute time-out periods the band strikes up a number at a tempo calculated so as to finish at precisely the same instant the time-out period ends. In fact, it is rumored that the people at the timers bench rely on the band rather than their rela¬ tively inaccurate stop watches to determine when to sound the horn indicating the end of the minute rest period. The Tech Marching Band, however, is not limited in its ability and activity to playing at sports events only. A highlight in the series of assembly programs is the annual band concert which was given in January this year. At these concerts a large non-marching ensemble is added to the band. In addition to this concert a Pops Concert was given on May 4, which was also superbly done and highly lauded. Front row, left to right: D. Young, D. Jenney, L. Sanborn, G. Feet, R. Gilbert, 1).

A mellow woodwind sec¬ tion, smooth brass section, and solid rhythm section combine to turn out the most danceable music this side of the Skull I omb. Anyone who has attended a basketball game, school dance, or Engineering Society party has certainly marveled at the band’s arrangements of Tuxedo junction, Cherokee, and Penthouse Serenade. The ease with which these musicians present their sparkling renditions is actually the result of endless hours of practice. The finished product is only the effect of innumerous re¬ arrangements and additions made on stock arrangements. Unfortunately, the Boyntonians are losing one of the finest pianists in the history of the organi¬ zation when Lee Bassett graduates in the spring. This light fingered lad will long be remembered for his work on the “eighty-eight”. There will also be a large gap left in the woodwind section since George “Clarinet Polka’’ Anderson is to receive his diploma in June. However, as per usual, the incoming Freshman class will provide replacements for the missing players. And so, next year, when the lights are dimmed follow¬ ing basketball games, or when the footlights come up on the Alden stage, the air will again be filled with the musical notes of Tech’s inimi¬ table Boyntonians.

DEBATING CLUB The debating season was opened this year with a practice tournament at the University of Vermont. This tournament was held in November and the W.P.I. team made a very good impression. An intecollegiate debating tournament was held in Worcester at which all the city teams participated. T he various schools were represented by novice teams. The officers of the debating group this year were as follows: President, Edward Kacmarcik; Manager, Wil¬ liam Bicknell; Secretary, David Hathaway; Treasurer, Thomas Rothwell; Facidty, Mr. D. E. Johnson; Technical Advisor, Professor Claude K. Schiefley. Front row, left to right: W. Adams, S. Dodge, D. Hal lock, A. Brown, Is.. Lang, C. Roberts, G. Randig. Second row: H. Chapell, S. Becker, R.

RADIO CLUB The Radio Club has recently enlarged its equipment by the construction of high fre¬ quency transmitters which will replace its 200- watt transmitter, station W 1 YK. These more powerful transmitters will enable the members to make radio contact with fellow amateurs in many countries all over the world. They have also been conducting tests on television inter¬ ference. The club meetings this year have con¬ sisted mainly of code practices for members who do not yet have their licenses. Various lectures were arranged for the club, the subjects ranging from precise frequency measurements to commercial broadcast prob¬ lems, which was presented by Don Howe. The officers of the Radio Club elected to serve this year are: Ashton B. Brown, President; Ken¬ neth Lang, Vice-President; Dave Hallock, Secre¬ tary-Treasurer. Front row, left to right: Ralph Webster, Philip Schoppe, William Dewey, Robert Oram. Second row, left to right: Elmer Com jo, David Young, John Herz, Melvin Seddon. NAUTICAL ASSOCIATION College, Bowdoin, Tufts, and Trinity, and was headed only by Middlebury. Although edged out of glory in the finals by schools such as Brown, Harvard, and Amherst, Tech had done very well. Later in the season Tech entered the Eastern Mass. Hexagonal Regatta. Sailing against first rate competi¬ tion, Tech, although not the top team in the meet, did reap some glory in defeating its city rival, Holy Cross. Undoubtedly the most exciting meet of the fall season was held at Lake Champlain with the University of Vermont as host. W.P.I., McGill University, and the home team finished in a thrilling three way tie. During the past, the Association has been under the capable direction of W. Dewey, Commodore; F. Norton, Vice Commodore; and C. Flanagan, Secretary. These officers have been ably aided by J. Beckwith, faculty advisor. Returning members of the Association were very well pleased by the excellent interest that was shown this Fall by the Freshman Class, some doze n of which turned out for the club. This outstanding showing obviously had fine results for Tech crossed the finish line at the Freshman Championship Eliminations ahead of Boston Front row, left to right: P. Radasch, R. Lanou, J.

With the advent of the winter snows, the members spend a great deal of time at various ski centers in New Eng¬ land, as well as on nearby slopes. Skiing parties are organized among members, and trips are made to such places as Sunapee and Franconia during Christmas and mid-term vacations. During the fall and winter the organization enters into such activities as hiking and mountain climbing. Since many of these events are held together with schools such as Colby Jr. College and Mount Holyoke, they prove to he most enjoyable. Dances are also sponsored by the group.

NEWMAN CLUB ‘ ror tne purpose of promoting Catholic culture and fellowship among the Catholic students” the Newman Club of W.P.I. was founded. It is a means by which all men with a common religious background may come together so that they might better know each other, and it is under this principal that this Club operates on the Hill. Led by the organization’s Chaplain, Reverend Father Brabson and the officers Bill Mufatti, President; Bill Cimonetti, the V.P.; and Ed Samolis as Secretary- Treasurer, the group has a well-rounded schedule of activities. Many fine talks were given on such subjects as “The Mind and Its Relation to the Body”, “The World Situation Today”, and “The Philosophy of Laughter”. Socially, the year started off fairly well with a joint disc dance with Worcester State Teacher’s Club. It was followed by one at Fitchburg State Teacher ' s College, and was climaxed by a Newman Club Formal held in Alden Memorial.

COSMOPOLITAN CLUB The Cosmopolitan Club was organized in 1909 for the purpose of promoting better understanding between people from different parts of the world and the people of the United States. This year’s activities were highlighted by the annual banquet held by the club in October. Brief talks were given by Dr. Wilson, head of the Chemical Engineering Department, Professor Phelps, Club Faculty Advisor, Dean Swan, Assistant Dean of Admissions and Students, and Bob Ripley, Club President. Another outstanding meeting of the year was held at the home of Dean Howe, Dean of Admissions and Stu¬ dents, where the Hon. Andrew B. Holmstrom, Mayor of Worcester, addressed the group. The club has met monthly throughout the year, during which time various speakers have brought information to the group concerning customs or political and social problems of people in other countries. This year’s very capable officers were: Robert Ripley, President; Dexter Cate, Vice-President; George Ching, Secretary; Philip Randall, Treasurer; and Jon Stein- grimsson, Recording Secretary.

The S.C.A. ai Worcester Tech is one of the most active societies on the hill. Operating mostly behind the scenes, this unsung organiza¬ tion provides many of the conveniences avail¬ able to Tech men, regardless of their denomi¬ nation. Probably the best known service provided by the S.C.A. is the Student Center, located in the Riley Lane, the Canteen and Coffee Shop has become one of the most popular spots on the campus. All profits from sales go toward up¬ keep and expansion of the facilities. A com¬ fortable lounge, magazines, and games are all available to the students. A refreshment stand, run in conjunction with the Coffee Shop, is operated at every basketball game. Each year, the S.C.A. sponsors the Tech Car¬ nival, a dramatic competition between the Freshmen and Sophomores. Each class writes and presents a short skit, and the producer of the better one, as judged by a faculty committee, is presented with a trophy. The faculty itself also puts on an act and this is usually the high point of the evening. The S.C.A. is responsible each fall for the Freshman Orientation program, which includes the making up and printing of the “Tech Bible’’ and the blotters. These are distributed at no cost to the student to all Tech men. The weekly assemblies held in Alden Memo¬ rial are also aranged by the S.C.A. A varied and interesting program of music, speakers, and movies is presented throughout the year. The local S.C.A. is affiliated with other Chris¬ tian organizations throughout New England, and it contributes to worthy organizations such as the American Red Cross, World Student Service Fund and the Student Christian Move¬ ment.

CAMERA CLUB Deeply buried in its mysterious darkness un¬ der Boynton Towers is the throne room of the preservers of memories. For here with their solutions and tools the shutterbugs transform black paper into things of beauty to be gazed upon in later years, to bring back memories of happier days, to recall the smiles of old friend¬ ships, and to take us back to the places we loved so well. For theirs alone is the power that holds the key to fond recollections. Founded thirty years ago when organizations were not so plentiful on the Hill, the Camera Club has survived to emerge in this era as one of the best equipped and most interesting activities on the Campus. With Professor Mac- Cullough as advisor and led by Vartkes Sohi¬ gian, President; Tom Bradley, Secretary; and Vung-Kwan, Treasurer; the members were treat¬ ed to a well rounded schedule of activities. Fhe club has nearly completed a three-year plan to completely modernize their equipment. A new Omega enlarger and hoards of small items from trays to thermometers were pur¬ chased from dues and a grant from the school. Negotiations are under way for larger housing facilities at Student Riley House. This year has seen a group of members ini¬ tiated into the Holy Order of Developing when enough students were found to warrant classes. There has also been a selection of lectures by county photographers, the Worcester Photo Clan, and Telegram and Gazette officials to en¬ lighten the group with their knowledge of the subject. This spring saw the group journeying to Mount Waclmsett and other scenic spots on field trips. This was somewhat new on the activities list but has proven highly successful. Fhe climax of the year was reached on model night when competition was keenest and prizes were awarded to those having the best overall pictures. Front row, left to right: L. Bassett, D. Tavares, W.

VARSITY CLUB At the beginning of this year, Tech letter- men began breeding thoughts concerned with the betterment of athletics on the Worcester Campus. A small nucleus of Tech athletes wrote many colleges asking about their policies on the sub¬ ject. From this thought and work, the Worces¬ ter Tech Varsity Club began to grow. 1 ’he Varsity Club organized and propagated itself into the daily life on the Worcester 1 ech Campus late this year. I he club stretched it¬ self over the framework of the executive council made up of the captains of the different sports and “play ball” was called. The Chairman’s ball landed in the hands of Richie Howard, assisted by Secretary Dick Zeleny, and 1 reasurer Don Stewart. The first play of the game was the opening of the first night club on the Worcester lech Camp us. Club Varsity set things awhirl with the dancing of the guests to the music of the Boyntonians and the two floor shows. The floor shows featured name stars of the New England entertainment circuit. The ova¬ tions from the audience called back the enter¬ tainers again and again. During the shows, the culinary desires of the guests were satisfied by agile waiters who had trained on the sporting surfaces of Tech. During this time out, let’s have a resume of the purpose of this tenderfoot organization, lhe “lettermen” pledged themselves to maintain the highest possible standards in athletics at Worces¬ ter Tech. They have opened a passage to the proper authorities for the submitting of sugges¬ tions for the improvement of athletics. 1 his compact group intends to encourage enrollment of outstanding athletes with good moral and scholastic standing at the Institute. As always, the “lettermen” will be promoting close and cordial relations with other institutions in ath¬ letic activities.

The Student Chapter of the American Insti¬ tute of Chemical Engineers was organized with the object of putting student members in touch with the conditions and problems in the chemi¬ cal engineering industry. Meetings are held about once a month and usually feature a sj eaker who is a leader in some field of chemical engineering. This year a series of talks was presented on the tojric, “The Chemical Engineer in Industry.” The Tech Chapter also participates each year in the New England Regional Conference which was originated at W.P.I. in 1949. The A.I.Ch.E. does not confine itself to engi¬ neering interests, however, but goes further and sponsors social events during the year. This year the chapter held the “Unit Op Hojr,” a dance in the Unit Operations Laboratory with atmos¬ phere aplenty. There was also a picnic to wind uj) the chapter’s activities for the year. The officers of the A.I.Ch.E. for the year were the following: Carl E. Johansson, President; Joseph Jiunnies, Vice-President; Richard A. Coffey, Jr., Secretary; and Richard Zeleny, Treasurer.

The need to give the student a broader viewpoint, to present some of the challenging practical problems involved in in¬ dustry, brought forth the inception of the stu- ent branch of the A.I.E.E. During its monthly meetings professional men in technical fields and instructors present talks or demonstrations. Mainly through the Tech chapter, the Student Forum came into being. Each year students in the Electrical Department receive the oppor¬ tunity to present constructive criticism in regard to courses or administration policies. The popularity of the “Spark Dance” held by the local group is making this social affair a yearly must. Along with dancing and refresh¬ ment, spectacular demonstrations, especially with the high voltage equipment, inspire with awe the members and their dates present. In addition each year the student branch holds a joint meeting with the Worcester Na¬ tional Chapter. This affords an opportunity to learn more about the organization in which many students upon graduation will play an integral part. Professor Donald C. Alexander is advisor for the Tech chapter. Officers for the past year were: Chairman, Karl H. Kalbfieisch; Vice- Chairman, Lester W. Lloyd, Jr.; Secretary, Don¬ ald J. Corey; Treasurer, Walter F. Jaros, Jr.; Program Chairman, Aime J. Grenier.

AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS The Student Chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers is a society which gives the members a chance to learn more about their profession, and also gives them the sociability that comes with the grouping together of com¬ mon interests. During the past year the W.P.I. Chapter has received a commendation from the parent society for the work of the previous year. Meetings are held once a month when out¬ standing men in the field speak on their special¬ ties. Within the year speakers have included an Army Engineer, a Sanitary Engineer, and the Army Colonel who was responsible for the re¬ building of Cherbourg and also was the first to bridge the Rhine in 1945. This year the Chapter has 100 per cent mem¬ bership from the department. Freshmen are invited to all the meetings enabling them to learn what the field of Civil Engineering has to offer. In the Spring a regional conference was held at the University of Massachusetts with papers being presented by students and talks being given ' by members of the parent society. Officers for this year are: Jack Tracy, Presi¬ dent; Frank Flood, Vice-President; Dave Holmes, Secretary; and George Hill, Treasurer. Ray Fenno will be the delegate to the Regional Conference.

The American Society of Mechanical Engi¬ neers here on the hill is one of over 125 student branches of that Society established throughout the country. Membership is open to all students majoring in Mechanical Engineering who are interested in broadening their knowledge in this field. Monthly meetings are held throughout the school year, at which time a lecture on some technical subject is presented by a well-known authority. In this manner students are able to meet prominent engineers in the industries and to secure first-hand information. Members receive the Society’s monthly publi¬ cation, Mechanical Engineering, an excellent magazine which brings them up to date on the latest improvements and advances in industry. A service provided for the students by the ASME is the operation on the “Coke” machine in the student lounge in Higgins. All revenue from this project goes towards refreshments for the meetings and other expenses of the student branch. One of the more novel social events of the school year was the combined clam bake and dance held at the Alden Hydraulic Lab. last fall, which was also sponsored by the Society. Everyone who attended had their fill of deli¬ cious clams and a fine evening of dancing. Looking to the future, the ASME is planning another get-together in the spring.

FOOTBALL 1950 Overcoming pre-season and mid¬ season injuries the football team came through with the best season in the new jrost war era of college football. This was a team built up by Coaches Pritchard and McNulty for the last three years with the addition of new men during the past two seasons. Pre-season practice started the day after Labor Day—two sessions a day being the order—culminating with a scrimmage against Amherst at Am¬ herst. The Crimson and Gray opened the season against an unknown, an Army team from Fort Devens. This game was scheduled last spring before the Korean situation. The Devens team cam e to Tech with much football experience behind it. A good per¬ centage of the team were members of the Tennessee National Guard with many names of national football prominence on the roster. The Army scored first after partially blocking a Tech punt early in the first period. Again in the opening period their star halfback, Lund, broke loose off tackle and scampered sixty-eight yards to a touchdown. Tech came roaring back with Dave Holmes blocking a Devens’ kick to score a safety. Taking only eight plays Tech marched down the field after the kickoff, with Fer¬ rari taking the ball over for the first TD of the young season. The Engi¬ neers score again in the second canto on a Shebek to Abdow pass, making the score 16 to 12 for Tech to end the first half. Devens pushed the ball over for the final tally of the day in the third period. Tech just couldn’t make their offense work inside the enemy twenty yard line during the last canto. Twice they had four downs inside the twenty but were not able to cross the last white stripe and the game ended with Devens on top 19 to 16. The Mass. U. Redmen invaded Alumni Field the next week hoping to avenge their 7-6 defeat of the pre¬ vious season. Early in the second period Chris Martin fell on a Mass. U. fumble on their six. In two plays Tech drew first blood with St. Louis scoring from the one and Redmen recovered an Engineer fumble on the Tech twenty-six and scored three plays later on a ten yard run. What proved to be the deciding point was missed by the Mass. U. kicker. An inspired Redman team came back after the half and racked up two quick touchdowns, capitalizing on runs for one and passes for the other. Neither of the conversions was missed and the third period started with the Boynton Hillers down 20 to 7. On the second play of the fourth canto Walt Kolodne recovered a Red fumble and two plays later Joe Jiunnies threw a pass through the hands of a de¬ fending halfback into the waiting arms of Dave Holmes who fell over the line for the score. Ferrari com¬ pleted the conversion. Late in the period the Engineers took to the air and scored the tying point on a pass from St. Louis to Abdow. Though almost out on his feet from an injury received earlier in the game Rick came in to boot the ball through the uprights for the deciding point of the game and the second straight win for Tech over the powerhouse from Amherst. In one of the roughest games that Tech has been called on to play, the Aces of American International Col¬ lege threw away the rule book and heat the Engineers into submission 18 to 6. After the conclusion of this game Rick Ferrari was lost for the season with a fractured elbow, and A 1 Ferron, Ted Fritz, and George Abdow had broken noses. Walt Kolodne had to leave the fray, also, with a badly bruised wrist. Mrozack of the Aces intercepted a St. Louis pass early in the first period and raced sixty-one yards for the first score. The conversion was missed. The Engineers were forced to punt during the series of plays after the kickoff. Now the Aces look over on their twenty and were pushed back to their six. Forcing themselves out of the hole by concentrating on the ends, the Aces scored their second touchdown on an eighty yard run by their star back Salvucci. A.I.C. now led 12 to o. The Techmen had trou¬ ble with their offense and a punting dual ensued, Shebek being able to keep the Aces in the hole. Trying a passing attack the Crimson and Gray still couldn’t seem to roll. In the sec¬ ond period Mrozack had a 100 yard punt return nullified by an offside, and Salvucci also had a TD called back due to a clipping penalty. Late in this period Salvucci was able to bull his way across on a fifteen yard end run, making the score 18 to o, A.I.C. An inspired team from Worcester took the field for the second half, but was not able to break through the hard charging A.I.C. line. This period proved to be a stalemate, but late in the game the Engineers sprang to life. Passes to Shebek and late Mehalick plus runs by two Freshmen, Malloy and Eldridge, set up a touch¬ down. Eldridge scored the only points of the day for Tech on a six yard off tackle play. The attempted con¬ version by St. Louis was blocked. Tech was way ahead in the statistics column at the end of the game with eleven to one first downs. A.I.C. was penalized 107 yards during the game. and it was a battered but not spirit¬ less Tech team that trekked back from Springfield. After this game football relationships with American Inter¬ national College were broken by Doc” Carpenter. The following week the Crimson and Gray travelled to Troy, New York, to take on the Trojans of R.P.I. Up to this the Cherry and White had been winless and were hoping to snap a three game losing streak. A team which later lost to Coast Guard 27 to o was able to beat W.P.I. 13 to o, handing the Techmen their third and last defeat. The first period was scoreless, but an R.P.I. lineman inter¬ cepted a Tech pass early in the second period and ran to the Tech seven. Three plays later Schindler, a lanky end, caught a pass and crashed over for the six points. The try for the point after was missed, and at the half the Engineers from Worcester were on the short end of a six to nothing score. R.P.I. kicked to Tech to open the second half and George Abdow fum¬ bled the ball after being tackled hard on his thirty yard line. The Trojans Co-Captains Walt and Don Kolodne of R.P.I. took over here and ran the ball over in a few plays for their sec¬ ond and last TD. The conversion attempt was completed and the after¬ noon scoring ended with the Cherry and White in the saddle 13 to o. Tech’s ofEense sprang to life at this point but was unable to push the ball over the all important last white stripe. At one point Tech was deep in Trojan territory only to have the Trojan fullback intercept one of the five Tech passes that were gobbled up by the opponents. Jim McKay was able to grab an R.P.I. fumble on the thirty, but another Tech fumble nulli¬ fied this chance. I11 this game the loss of Rick Ferrari was sorely felt. Twenty-five passes were attempted by Tech with only seven completions. Before the largest crowd of the sea¬ son, a goodly percentage of it being alumni returned for the Homecoming festivities, the Techmen showed their greatest spirit of the present cam¬ paign and clunked the Cadets of the Coast Guard Academy 6-0. This was the hardest fought game at Alumni Field this year; the Engineers stopped the hard running fast backs from New London time and time again after they had broken away for long runs. On the first plsy of the game Spadafora, one of the Cadet speed¬ sters, broke away to the Tech thirty- five. A see-saw battle now ensued; two plays after the run by Spadafora, George Abdow intercepted a pass to stop the Sailors. After a Tech punt Ted Fritz fell on a fumble on the Coasties’ twenty-five but the Engineers could not capitalize. The running of Shebek, Abdow and Malloy was now featured and at one point Tech had the ball on the opponent’s four yard line. There the Cadet line cracked down and the score was denied. After Joe Jiunnies had completed two long passes, the Crimson and Gray was down inside the Sailors’ ten, but couldn’t drive across for a sceond TD. As the first half ended the Coasties were on the Tech thirty-five throw¬ ing dutch passes. With the second half barely a minute old, George Abdow took off over his right tackle and didn’t stop until fifty-five yards and a TD later. The conversion attempt by Tom O’Connor was blocked and Tech was up 6 to o. The Sailors came back right away and by capitalizing on speed were able to get inside the twenty-five but no further. As this fruitful period ended the hall was in the Engineers’ possession on the Cadets’ twenty. Ed Majewski recov¬ ered a Coastie fumble on the Engi¬ neers’ twenty-five. The crowd well remembered the previous Coast Guard games when the Cadets were able to pull victories out of sure defeat in the final seconds. Every time the in¬ vaders got the ball, the Engineers dug in and were able to take it way or to stop the attack. Thus the game ended with the Cadets in possession on the Tech thirty. With Mike Shebek and Jack Malloy providing the punch, Tech paddled their way through the mud of Alum¬ ni Field to a 19 to o victory over Lowell Textile. Their spirit was not dampened by the poor weather, though it took until the fourth period for them to score. Making his first appearance since the Mass. U. game, Chris Martin only lasted one period before breaking his big toe and be¬ coming sidelined for the remainder of the season. After receiving the kickoff, Tech passed into the hands of a defender, and Lowell drove to the seven before being stopped. Only once after this were the invaders able to cross the midfield stripe. The re¬ mainder of the first period was a punting duel with neither team able to get footing in the mud. Early in the second period Tech was able to slip and slide to the Weavers’ nine before they were stopped. Just before the first half end¬ ed the Engineers drove to the three on fourth down just inches short of the ten yard chain. The third canto was much like the first two, with the rain and mud hampering both offenses. After being bogged for three periods, the Tech team came to life. Joe Jiunnies passed to Mike Shebek from the Lowell forty-five, and jug¬ gling the ball for five yards Mike out¬ distanced the defenders to put Tech in the lead 6-0. Tech recovered Lowell fumble four plays after the kickoff, and with¬ in three plays Jack Malloy scored on a run around his right end from ten yards out. O’Connor’s attempt for the points after was again wide. Lowell was completely done in by now and the Engineers were able to Shebek off-tackle Abdow on a pitchout take over again in Lowell territory. Taking off over left tackle, Jack Mal¬ loy raced thirty-two yards for the TD. Page passed to Peterson for the point and the game ended with Tech victorious 19-0. Showing their best pass offense of the year the invaders from Worcester dumped a light Norwich U. team 21 to 6 at Northfield, Vermont. Both teams fought for an opening in the first period, with the Horsemen going to the Engineers’ six once. The first score came midway in the second canto, when Joe Jimmies flipped a nice pass into the arms of Dick Hall on the twenty-five. Hall picked up speed and crossed the last stripe un¬ molested. Tom O’Connor hooted the point. This ended the scoring for the first half. Throughout the third period the Crimson and Gray forces were able to keep control of the hall in Nor¬ wich territory. As this canto was drawing to a close Jiunnies flipped one of his direct hits to Dave Holmes in the end zone. Again O’Connor’s hoot was good. Early in the fourth period Tech started a march from the midfield stripe. Combining the running of Malloy, Shebek and Eld- ridge it became first and ten on the ten. There Jiunnies pitched his third touchdown strike of the day to Bill Mehalick. O ' Connor completed his third straight conversion and the in¬ vaders led 21 to o. On the kickoff the Norwich receiver fumbled and the Engineers drove to the eleven before they were stopped. Two plays later DiSalvo of Norwich broke around end from his six and scampered ninety-four yards to the only Horseman score. W.P.I. took command again and after a beautiful run by Shebek, they were on the Norwich fifteen. The game ended three plays later with Tech in pos¬ session on the five. The season was thus ended with a 4-3 record in favor of Tech. Over the last three games only once was the opposition able to score against the W.P.I. line; and Tech scored one more TD than the opposition through¬ out the campaign, gaining the end zone thirteen times. St. Louis scores SOCCER With the start of the school year last fall the Class of ’93 Field once again became filled with determined Tech soccer enthusiasts, busily pre¬ paring for a rugged 1950 schedule. Returning to the team were a goodly number of veterans, led by Capt. Bob Fulmer, and along with them some very promising newcomers. Thus, be¬ cause of this combination of experi¬ ence and talent, hopes for a good season rode high, even although the schedule pitted the Boynton Hillers against such standouts as Trinity, Tufts, and Boston University. Under the able guidance of Coach Edwin Higginbottom and his assistant Jim Geddes, the long practice sessions found the boys starting to work well as a unit, and soon the Tech forces were faced with the prospect of open¬ ing their season against a very strong Trinity team. The game was played away, and despite the fact that the final gun found us on the short end of a 3-0 score, the team performed exceptionally well and showed a great deal of promise. Although unable to score, our boys did keep the ball deep in Trinity territory for a good part of the game. In fact, almost the en¬ tire second quarter was played at the Trinity end of the field, but our offensive just didn ' t get started and was unable to hit the nets for a score. The next game on the schedule found our forces playing the Univer¬ sity of Massachusetts hooters. After the Llniversity Redmen had taken an early 2-0 lead, Couto broke the Worcester team’s scoring ice by kick¬ ing one in on a spectacular scoring play. Our defenses, led by Fulmer, Hodgett, and Palmer, tightened from here on in and allowed but one more score. However, our own offense failed to click and our fighting forces fell again, 3-1. On the following Saturday the Tech eleven travelled across town for the yearly duel with its city rival, Clark. Beaten in their two previous starts, the Technren were up for this one and were pointing hard for a victory. At the very outset the Tech Booters quickly took a 2-0 lead as a result of scoring drives by Couto and Malas, a newcomer to the team. The Engi¬ neers continued to play spirited ball and maintain their lead for the re¬ mainder of the contest, and except for one defensive lapse late in the game which resulted in a Clark tally, they held the rival scorers at bay. The Saturday of Homecoming saw the Worcester booters tangle with the Tufts team in one of the best games of the year. Worcester jumped into Front row, left to right: A 1 Foss, Warren Palmer, Warren Ellsworth, Rod Horton, Capt. Bob Fulmer, Tom Hodgett, Elmer Corujo, Bob Lanou, Mehmet Ozbas. Second row: Don Adams, Gordon Willard, Dave Tavares, Nasuh Malas, Ion Davidson, Ken Haaland, George Seidel, Fernando Couto. Back row: Asst. Coach Jim Geddes, Manager Bud Mackey, Coach Edwin Higginbottom. Midfield Action an early 1-0 lead by virtue of Couto ' s scoring drive. The tally resulted from a lightning kick from the left side which zoomed past the goalie straight into the nets. A short time later, however. Tufts came roaring hack and scored twice to take the lead from the home eleven. Worcester rallied strong¬ ly in the final period, hut was abso¬ lutely luckless. Time after time, the Techmen were plagued by near misses with the result that they dropped their third game of the sea¬ son, 2-1. Next on the Techmen’s schedule were the Boston University Terriers. The game, played in the rain and mud of the Class of ’93 soccer field, saw our forces battle their opponents to a heartbreaking 1-1 tie. Corujo, teaming up with Ellsworth, put the Boynton Hillers in the lead until the third period when B.U. broke through our defenses and scored the tying goal. Although Worcester came with¬ in a whisker of tallying on two more occasions, this was the extent of the scoring, and the Engineers had to settle for the tie. The soccer finale of the 1950 season saw the Worcester Tech forces romp to a 5-0 win against M.I.T. The boys from Cambridge possessed a good record going into this one, but once the Boynton hooters got going they were unstoppable. The Techmen had little trouble solving the invaders’ de¬ fenses as Corujo led the scoring de¬ luge with two tallies, and Fulmer, C.outo, and Horton each chipped in with one a piece. Defensively, Palm¬ er turned in a sterling goal at goalie and received a great deal of assistance from his teammates. This game proved to he the last for four seniors on the squad. They were Captain Bob Fulmer, Tom Hodgett, Kirk Leonard, and Rod Horton. Captain Bob Fulmer Seated, left to right: William Mehalick, Robert Chapman, Richard Howard, Andrew Freeland, Harry Brown, Richard Hall. Standing: Coach Charles McNulty, Joseph Fratino, Douglas MacLaren, Henry Vasil, Daniel Hoch, Michael Shebek, Manager Charles Lorenz. VARSITY BASKETBALL The close of the 1950-51 basketball season saw the Worcester team end up with a .445 season, winning eight of the eighteen games on the schedule. Once again the away-courts proved a jinx while the friendly home court produced a better brand of ball. The schedule contained a number of new teams as compared to last year and was lengthier. Included was a road trip over the Christmas holiday which saw the Tech team meet Stevens Institute and Upsala College. Possi¬ bly the highlights of the season were the wins over the city rivals, Clark and Assumption, and the cherished win over the highly rated Jumbos of Tufts. I11 all, Coach McNulty brought his charges along to be a strong club at the close of the season, many of the losses at that time being by the barest of margins. On hand was last year ' s entire start¬ ing squad including co-captains Andy Freeland and Richie Howard. The latter did not join the quintet until January, and needless to say his ser¬ vices were sorely missed. Also up from last year’s team was center Harry Brown, a sophomore; and guards Bill Mehalick and Bob Chapman, both juniors. Up from the jayvee squad were forward Dick Hall and guard Mike Shebek, both of whom proved themselves true varsity material. Two other sophomores, reserve guard Dan¬ ny Hoch and center Hank Vasil, added to the roster. Two freshmen forwards rounded out the squad, Joe Fratino and Doug MacLaren. The former proved a valuable asset tak¬ ing over a starting slot prior to Howard’s return. Sickness mid-way through the season sidelined the promising MacLaren. Once again the spunk and fight characteristic of all Tech teams was evident as the 1950 quintet did battle on the court. None can say the team led by Howard and Freeland didn’t do Tech proud. The Boynton Hillers opened the hardwood campaign on the right foot by downing a Fitchburg State Teach¬ ers’ quintet, 59-52. The result was a ■ good send-off for the season, though there were some moments of doubt along the way. Dick Hall and Joe Fratino kept the home team in the game during the first half with 8 and 11 points, respectively, while Hall teamed with co-captain Andy Free¬ land for a total of 20 more important points in the second stanza. When all was said and done, Tech had over¬ come a 27-30 deficit to go on to win. The team journeyed to Amherst for their first game away and ran into a little difficulty being nipped by the Redmen, 54-49. The teams kept pace with each other during the first half with the result a 22-22 score at inter¬ mission. Center Harry Brown shone with his 9 of the 22 points in the first half and then going on to add 10 more in the second stanza. The difference proved to be the five free throws scored by the host team in the final stages of the game. The men of Tech returned to Alumni Gym only to be frustrated in a ding-dong battle that saw two overtime periods, losing out by 66-57. Unable to click consistently, the home team fell behind the NYS Maritime Academy and trailed by six at half¬ time. However, with Hall and Fra¬ tino leading the way, the gap was closed and the final buzzer found the two teams deadlocked at 48-all. At the end of the five-minute overtime the teams were still tied, 54-54. It was Chapman who came through with a timely push to keep the Boynton Hillers in the fray. However, the quintet weakened by the loss of key players via the foul route couldn’t stem the tide and ended the short end of the final score. During the Christmas recess the Techmen tangled with Stevens Insti¬ tute and Upsala. The Macmen held a 26-25 lead over the Stevens five at intermission, but the second half proved disastrous for Tech and they lost, 63-45. At Upsala, too, the boys couldn’t get started and trailed 45-19 at the half. The Techsters were un¬ able to cut into the Viking lead in the final two quarters and thus dropped a 76-63 verdict. A11 aggressive court quintet re¬ turned to action in Alumni Gym after the Christmas break to easily take the measure of the neighboring Assump¬ tion by a 64-48 margin. A feature of the game was the return to the line¬ up of co-captain Richie Howard who had been sidelined for studies for the Action under the boards first five games. His presence seemed to provide a spark as the home team led throughout and the outcome never seemed to be in doubt. Howard paced the scorers with 15 points. Traveling next to Springfield, the Tech qu intet dropped a 63-49 verdict to A.I.C. Off to a slow start, the Roynton Hillers were down by twelve points before finding the range. The Engineers trailed by nine points at halftime, with the Aces opening the gap throughout the second half. Dick Hall hit the chords for 16 points for the Macmen. The next game with Trinity cer¬ tainly proved one of the better games of the season from the spectator view¬ point. The partisan crowd in the Alumni Gym was treated to a second half comeback seldom seen in basket¬ ball circles today. The Engineers entered the second stanza on the low side of a depressing and seemingly impossible score of 27-44. New press tactics paid off so well that the score was knotted at a 60-all count with less than five minutes to play. Brown, Howard, Hall and Shebek were stand¬ outs in the uprising. However, Brown for two points HOWARD fatigue took its toll and the Macmen fell to a 70-66 defeat. Breaking back into the win column once again, the Tech array upset a favored Northeastern squad, 67-50. The teams matched baskets for the first 20 minutes, but for the remain¬ der of the contest the Techmen could not be bested. The McNultymen dis¬ played fine team play in winning this one, the top scoring honors going to Dick Hall with 16 points. Back on its home court the Tech team next met the hapless New Eng¬ land College array and proceeded to romp with ease. All of the local squad got into the scoring column, with Brown and Howard hooping 23 and 11, respectively. The visitors had diffi¬ culty solving the full-court press and at times were beset with the 10 second infraction for inability to move the ball past mid-court. The final buzzer saw a 70-32 score. Following the mid year exams the Tech hoopsters resumed their sched¬ ule to take on the visiting engineers from M.I.T. The result of the three week vacation showed as the visiting delegation set up a fast pace and took the measure of the locals. At half¬ time Worcester trailed by seven, 32-25, and when the final buzzer sounded the invading engineers from Cam¬ bridge had moved to a 13-point ad¬ vantage. Brown was high man for Tech with 12 points. Final score: Tech 47, M.I.T. 60. The McNultymen got back in the win column by defeating Lowell Tex¬ tile on the latter ' s home court. It was the fifth victory for the Tech men. After getting off to a slow start, Mehalick and Howard caught fire and tallied with 13 points to put the Boynton Hillers out in front at the half-way mark, 24-14. Although the Lowell team came close to tieing up the count, Howard dispelled all fear of an upset by tallying three straight hoops with but four minutes to play. Howard was high with 18 points; Mehalick followed with 14 markers. Final score: Tech 45, Lowell Tex¬ tile 41. Next, the Macmen were host to the neighboring Clark team in a game which was typical of the inter-city rivalry. Similar to last year’s tilt, the contest was hotly contested and fin¬ ished with a slim margin between the two teams. The Tech men came out on top of the 50-46 score. Certainly worthy of mention was the defensive play of Howard on the visitors’ top scorer, George Vasil. Bob Chapman was the fair-haired boy who put the clincher on the battle with two con¬ IN FOR A LAYUP secutive pitches with less than three minutes to go. Howard led the Tech scorers with 14 points while Brown followed with 12. This victoiy was certainly sweet. The 14th game of the season saw the Engineers lose to a very strong Amherst team to the tune of 65-52. The Lord Jeffs put on a dazzling dis¬ play in the first stanza, hitting on 13 out of 25 tries. The Macmen caunfit fire in the second half but it O was not enough to best the Amherst quintet. Brown and Hall were high for the locals with 13 and 12 points, respectively. A slow first half on the part of the Tech team gave a halftime edge of 11 points to the host Coast Guard quintet in their meeting at New London. As was the case in many previous tilts, the Engineers roared back in the second half. The locals went ahead twice in the closing min¬ utes of the game only to fall into defeat as Coast Guard’s Cloutier hit the chords for a two-pointer with but 13 seconds remaining. Co-captains Freeland and Howard were high with 11 and 10 points, respectively. The Boynton Hillers returned to Alumni Gym only to find themselves a 20-point underdog to a tall Wil¬ liams quintet. Fight and a never-say- die spirit kept the Tech team in the game all the way although coming out on the low side of the final count, 53-47. The zone defense set up by the Macmen presented an ever-press¬ ing problem to the boys from Williamstown. Brown led the local basketeers with 15 markers while Howard followed with 14. The biggest upset produced by the Tech team was that at Medford when the locals downed a highly-favored Tufts quintet. Once again the Mac- men spotted the rivals a generous lead in the first stanza, and then fighting uphill to overcome the disadvantage. Just before the close of the first half the Jumbos were ahead by 15 mark¬ ers, but a Tech surge cut the gap to only two points. Just before the final gun, Harry Brown hooped two to tie up the score causing the tilt to go into overtime. In the overtime Brown and Howard combined for 9 points. Brown finished with an im¬ pressive 25 points while Howard hooped 2t. Final score: Tech 70, Tufts 68. The curtain was lowered on the 1950-51 season with an easy win over the VR-6 Naval Air Transport Squad¬ ron Badgers attached to the Army base at Westover. Howard, playing the last game of his brilliant col¬ legiate career, put on a typical spark¬ ling display. He was all over the floor, stealing the ball, setting up plays, and connecting when they counted. His 16 point total gave him top scoring honors in the victory by a 52-36 count. Front row, left to right: John Leach, David Gilbert, Roger Osell, Walter Reibling, Charles Horne. Second row, left to right: Thomas Kee, George Kay, Coach Robert Pritchard, Alan Costantin, Neil Gleberman. J.V. BASKETBALL The 1950-51 edition of Coach Bob Pritchard’s J.V. while not living up to the standards set by last season’s squad, did turn in several creditable performances. Their play was hard and determined throughout the cam¬ paign, and although the going did get a little rough at times, their spirit was always undaunted. Undoubtedly, the Junior Boynton Hillers’ finest performance came against a very strong Trinity five, sup¬ posedly one of the best J.V. squads in New England. Although the Tech team did come out on the short end of a 73-67 score in this one, they did add a great deal of prestige to their season’s showing. Other highlights of the season were a 42-41 win over the Assumption J.V. and a 45-44 tri¬ umph over the Clark J.V. The squad was composed chiefly of freshmen and included some very fine talent. On the starting five, little Dino Sharos led all scorers by reason of his phenomenal shooting. The Fitchburg flash could shoot from any position and was one of the biggest reasons for the fine showings of the team. Aiding Sharos up front was Dave Gilbert whose board work and point getting were always outstand¬ ing. In the center slot was John Leach who continually turned in fine performances, while the peppery guards, Rog Osell and Bill Zerlin dis¬ played fine defensive work and cotdd always be counted on for points when they were needed. Aiding the first stringers on the squad were several capable replace¬ ments. Walt Reibling, Tom Kee, Chuck Horne, and Howie Latimer did see considerable service and performed creditably. With such a large number of fresh¬ men on the squad, there was a defi¬ nite lack of experience in the 1951 team. However, with the game ex¬ perience gained in last season’s con¬ tests, these boys should make the prospects for success in next year’s season extremely bright. RIFLE TEAM Seated, left to right: Marshall Kidder, Donald Youngdahl, Prof. W. F. M. Longwell, Michael Hoechstetter, Ronald Dennis. Standing: William Schoeneman, Henry Strage, Gilbert Nersesian, Howard Raphaelson, Burton J. Gens, Harold Lake. RIFLE CLUB In this year’s matches the rifle team has shown well consistently. The team is much stronger than last year’s and is improving. Some new equipment has been ob¬ tained this year. This includes six new M-i’s and a new rifle. The army is supplying some of the ammunition, and the school is subsidizing more. With this aid the team has been able to hold practice more often. Also, improvements have been made in the range and fluorescent lighting has been added. There is a great deal of interest in the Club, which the year numbers about fifty members. The prospects for the team are very good for next year as there are no seniors on this year’s team. The W.P.I. team is a member of the New England Intercollegiate Rifle League. Their record at the time of the writing is 2 and 4, but they have all been very close matches. Two of the matches were lost by less than ten points. There will be several out¬ standing matches later in the season, including the Eastern Intercollegiate Championships in New York. (Two Tech men placed very high last year in this tournament.) A drive for new members will be held this spring and summer when the Club has the use of the Shrewsbury outdoor range. This year’s officers are as follows: President, Don Youngdahl; Treasurer, Walt Levine; Manager, Earl Klaubert; Coach, Bob Chiabrandy; Faculty Ad¬ visor, Maj. W. F. Longwell. Seated, left to right: Don Adams, Bob Lunger, Harvey Howell, Mel Sedden. Standing: Coach Frank Grant, Seymour Vershon, Stuart Rowe, Dave Jenney, Tom McComiskey, Mgr. SWIMMING Though the 1950-51 swimming year cannot be considered a successful one it can by no means be judged a com¬ plete loss, for though no victories were posted, much was gained in the experience and much promise dis¬ played toward future competition. Handicapped by the elements which caused illnesses and a postponement and by injuries, Coach Grant had his hands full just getting a squad assembled, to compete with such strong teams as Coast Guard, Trinity, B.U. and Amherst. The class of ’51 was represented by splashers Howell and Quamo. The men of U.Conn. provided the first test of the year and proved to be too much for the Tech mermen to handle as they built up a 55-22 advantage. It was a contest which saw the Polymen gaining only two firsts, Rowe and Seddon doing the honors in the free style and breaststroke re¬ spectively. These two men went on to gain top scoring laurels for the year, Rowe with 46 and Seddon 25. Contest number two found the Engineers floundering against a swift Amherst aggregation who yielded but one first place to W.P.I., and that to Stu Rowe in the 100 yd. freestyle event. The Lord Jeffs amassed a total of 56 points to P.I.’s 19. The following week another combine from the same town engaged and dunked the Grantmen for their third loss in as many encounters. The U. of Mass, swimmers demonstrated all around superiority and rode off with a 47-27 victory under their belts. Four days later the Engineers came through with their finest performance of the year, putting up a great strug¬ gle before finally bowing out to the Jumbos of Tufts College. Stu Rowe turned on the steam to come through in fine style, winning both the 60 and the 100 yd. freestyle events. But even this feat was outdone as Cy Vershon, the third ranking point getter, cleaved out a new Tech backstroke record in the good time of 2-38.5. However, now as during the rest of the season the proper balance was missing and the Techmen fell short again, suc¬ cumbing 43-32 for the fourth straight loss. Returning after the Winter recess minus the services of Johnson and Jenney the mermen found the going even rougher with the Terriers of Boston U. as the first opponents. Harvey Howell of the locals kept a little spark alive by copping the div¬ ing event and Cy Vershon back- stroked his way to a first to raise the hopes even further. Mel Seddon also came through in the backstroke, but here the good fortune ended and the Terriers went on to dominate the rest of the meet and win by a 45-29 margin. Apparently not fully recovered from a combination of the flu and previous dunkings, the Polymen journeyed to Trinity to take on the powerful Bishops. The host team proved to be very uncompromising to say the least, in handing the Engineers their worst defeat of the year. Rowe could save little face in winning the only first for the Grantmen in the freestyle. The men of Hartford racked up a total of 59 points to the 15 of W.P.I. March 3 marked the date of the finale, this time against the Middies of the Coast Guard Academy. Once again the high scoring trio of Rowe, Seddon, and Vershon came through, but as always the balance was lacking and the Techmen could do little else to up the score. Cy Vershon shone once again as he broke his own record and established the new mark of 2-34 for the backstroke. At the completion of the regular season, the three mainstays men¬ tioned above journeyed to the New England Championships in Boston on March 10. Vershon and Seddon put up valiant efforts but were forced to bow in the preliminary. Rowe, how¬ ever, by virtue of placing third in the prelim gained a berth in the semi-finals. The lanky junior could make but fourth in this trial and con¬ sequently bowed out. While the freshmen did not have a regular schedule, there was much in evidence along the line of talent as may be judged from the interclass and EF. competition. Whittle, Boyn¬ ton, Wildt, Walters, Catineau and DeFalco seem destined to bolster the future endeavors of Coach Frank Grant. These men with holdovers like Brown, Adams, Lancey, Ernst, Jenney and Lunger could well re¬ verse the record another year.

TRACK During the fall season, while foot- ball was taking much of the sports spotlight, one could observe each day Tech’s cross-country team in action. These runners could be seen running on almost any part of the campus try¬ ing to get in condition for a short but rugged season. Led by Junior Dick Zeleny, who won all but one race during the season, the harriers finished with a season’s record of two wins and four losses. The season opened after only one week of practice and Tech was de¬ feated by University of Mass, by a score of 22-39. Zeleny took individual honors by winning while Bud Madi¬ gan and Don Post also placed well for the Engineers. However, Tech bounced right back and defeated Amherst College 25-31 as Zeleny set a new Amherst course record. Other finishers in the first ten were Post, Madigan, Bob Howell, George Mes¬ senger and Ronnie Thompson. The following week Tech again tasted de¬ feat. This time at the hands of a strong Coast Guard team by a score of 20-39. Zeleny again came through to win but the Coast Guard won easily by taking the next five places. The next meet which was against American International College was won easily by Tech by a score of 16-47, as Tech runners took seven of the first eight places. Then once again the tide was reversed as the Northeastern runners defeated the Engineers 20-41. Zeleny who was at his best for this meet established a new course record of 18:24. How¬ ever, the record was not to last long because the next week it was broken by five seconds. But unfortunately Zeleny did not break his own record. For the first time in the season he had been defeated. Johnson of Provi¬ dence College had beaten him and also helped his team to win the meet 25-32. Fortunately Tech can look for¬ ward to a stronger team next year. The only loss will be George Messen¬ ger who has completed four years of running with the team. During the winter Tech’s relay team participated in two relay races CROSS COUNTRY TRACK TEAM Front row, left to right: Francis Madigan, Ronald Thompson, Richard Zeleny, Donald Post, King Killin, Richard Kirk. Back row: Coach Frank Sanella, Manager Robert Luce. at the Boston Garden. The first one was the K. of C. meet in which Tech placed fourth in a five team relay race. Running for Tech were Herby Hayes, Bud Madigan, George Messenger and Dick Zeleny. In the B.A.A. games Tech was third in a four team race. That time the order of runners was Messenger, Hayes, M a d i g a n and Zeleny. This, however, was not a criterion of the ability that the run¬ ners possessed. Of all the teams that they participated against Tech was the only team that didn’t have a hoard track on which to practice. However, they still made a good Tech showing. Since Messenger and Hayes will he leaving. Coach Sanella will have to groom some new runners for next year’s team. Later on in the winter Tech’s in¬ door track season started. Their first meet was against University of Mass, at Amherst, and they defeated the Redmen by a score of 61-34. Harvey Howell, Hayes and Zeleny did the main hulk of the scoring for Tech. The following week, with only eleven men, the team ventured to Lewiston, Maine, and defeated Bates College 52-47. This was probably the biggest upset that a Tech track team experi¬ enced. Behind most of the way, Tech rallied and won the last event with Hayes and Bobby Howell placing first and second. Zeleny, Harvey Howell, Messenger and Warren Palmer also contributed heartily to the scoring. The following meet against Amherst College at Amherst was the first de¬ feat that the indoor team has had in two seasons. The Lord Jeffs defeated Tech 61-43. Harvey Howell led the scoring with three first places but Amherst proved to be too strong in the field events and swept both the high and broad jumps. However, the team ended the season on the bright side by defeating Trinity at Hartford 59-45. Once again Harvey Howell and Zeleny led the scoring. Howell set new cage records in both the 40 and 220 yard dashes while Zeleny lowered his own previous cage record in the 880 yard run. Others prominent in the scoring were Messenger, Madigan, Palmer, Leonard, Bobby Howell and Hayes. This victory gave Tech an overall season’s record of three wins and one loss. During the spring track season Tech faced University of Mass., Coast Guard, Trinity, Bates and sent several runners to the N.E.I.A.A.

Captain Stewert and Coach McNulty VARSITY BASEBALL With a stiff nine game schedule, containing some of the stronger teams in New England, the Worcester Tech baseball team is still hoping to better its respectable five and four record of a year ago. At this writing, Coach Charlie McNulty has pared the squad down to a workable size and is con¬ ducting daily inter-squad games in an effort to find a well-balanced start¬ ing nine. On the whole, prospects appear good, with most of last year’s squad once again returning along with several promising freshmen. The pitching is strong: the infield, espe¬ cially the keystone combination ap¬ pears sound, while the outfield, still uncertain, appears to be adequate. It remains to be seen bow the hitting will stand up. The Engineers open their season on April 25th at the Coast Guard Acad¬ emy and before that time, Coach McNulty must solve three major prob¬ lems: catching, third base, and a starting outfield. The first two problems were caused by the absence of last year’s captain, third baseman Johnny George, and catcher Bob Carlson. Both men com¬ pleted their four years of service for the Crimson and Gray last season. This was indeed a double loss, since both men along with the returning Mike Shebek were the only members of the team that hit over 0.300. Oth¬ ers missing from this year’s scene will Ross Chapin, Ed Van Cott, Phil Kaminsky and John Coupe be outfielders Hal Schmucki and Don Thompson. The former was a big powerman, whose timely hitting will also be missed. A tentative starting lineup, if one could be named at this early date, would once again find Harry Brown covering the initial sack. At second base, smooth fielding Don Stewert will lead the team as captain. Hard hitting Mike Shebek will once again cover shortstop and make life miserable for enemy pitchers. The hot corner posi¬ tion is still in doubt, but either sophomore Vyto Andreliunas or fresh¬ man Dick Page will probably get the nod. Pitching is perhaps the strongest point of the team and could well be responsible for that hoped for win¬ ning season. Ross Chapin, Phil Ka¬ minsky, and Ed Van Cott have all had previous experience. On the basis of last year’s performance, Chapin rates the title of ace of the staff, but both Kaminsky and Van Cott were developing fast towards the end of the season. Backing up the big three will be John Coupe, George Kay, and Ed Baldyga. The former, a sophomore, saw some service a year ago as a reliever, while the latter two axe freshmen. The catching department finds two freshmen battling for Carlson’s vacant berth. They are Joe Fratino, a pep¬ per pot from Endicott, New York, and Dick Valinski, a local boy. Both men have had previous backstopping ex¬ perience in high school. All positions in the outfield, accord¬ ing to Coach McNulty, are wide open. Holdovers from last year ' s squad in¬ clude Rick Ferrari, a three year vet¬ eran, Rollie St. Louis, a hard hitting Junior, and Sophomore Stan Andru- konis, a converted pitcher who saw service in the outer pastures towards the end of last year’s campaign. Three newcomers who could easily break their way into the starting lineup are Freshmen A 1 Costantin and Doug McLaren, along with Junior “Buzz” Moore. All three have been impres¬ sive in recent workouts. Other infielders likely to see much service this season are Sophomore Bill Raszka and Freshman Roger Osell. After the Coast Guard encounter. Captain Stewert will lead his mates against Clark, Lowell Textile, Massa¬ chusetts University, Northeastern, Tufts, Assumption, American Inter¬ national, and Trinity, in the finale here on May 26th.

VARSITY TENNIS Experienced men, good playing weather this spring, and a large turn¬ out combine to indicate that a good season is in store for Tech’s tennis team. Although the loss of A 1 Howe, last year’s captain, through gradua¬ tion and Paul Crowley and Ed Weth- erholt to the service left gaps which will be difficult to fill, Coach Wads¬ worth is optimistic over this year’s prospects. This year’s array is led by Edwin Nahikian, an extremely capable per¬ former who has been rewarded for his services with the captaincy. Be¬ hind Ed are A 1 Maclnnis and Don Kranz from last year’s squad and Gerry Atkinson, who was sidelined last spring by illness. The remaining two positions are open for compe¬ tition. This year for the first time a city tennis champ will be crowned, for the director of athletics has scheduled matches with Assumption, Clark and Holy Cross. This should be added incentive to spur the team on to great heights for it is certain that the players would like nothing better than to bring the first city crown to Boynton Hill. This year’s schedule includes match¬ es with American International, Mass. State, Tufts, Assumption, Clark, Holy Cross, M.I.T. and Trinity. Front row, left to right: George Abdow, Cal MacAusland, Capt. Don Quimby, Coach John Bjork. Back row: Tom Ellis, Jim Hodder, Ed Travis. GOLF TEAM The golf team has played a large part in making available to the stu¬ dents a well-rounded spring program of activities. The team benefits great¬ ly by the proximity of many fine courses and always strives to give the school an outstanding representative in this field. The average fan might glance at the overall golf record of last season and not be too impressed. However, there were many individual perform¬ ances which were worthy of credit, foremost of which was the showing made by Ed Travis in the New Eng¬ land Intercollegiate Golf Champion¬ ship at Oakley C. C., Watertown. Playing some excellent golf, Ed ad¬ vanced all the way to the quarter¬ finals, only to be edged out on the nineteenth hole in a tense and excit¬ ing match. Incidently, Hinchla of Boston College, the winner of this close one, had been champion of the tournament for the preceding three years. The outlook for this year is de¬ cidedly optimistic. Along with Travis and J. Hodder, last year’s number two man, there are many faces famil¬ iar to the Tech golf fan among those returning for another season with the team. Capt. Quimby, McAusIand, and ex-Capt. Baldwin are golfers who have done a consistently fine job. Baseballer j. George and footballers G. Abdow and S. Miller are expected to bolster the potential strength of the team. Everyone acquainted with this or¬ ganization seems to agree with the feeling of Faculty Advisor, John Bjork, that this year the Tech golf team will definitely be a constant threat to any and all opponents.

BOYNTON HILL LACROSSE CLUB Lacrosse, ever increasing in popu¬ larity in New England, has come to Tech with the founding of the Boyn¬ ton Hill Lacrosse Club. Tech students and faculty have shown much interest in the sport and have helped, with enthusiastic sup¬ port and interest, to promote our new team. The Boynton Hill Lacrosse Club, an independent team made up of Tech students, has come a long way since its inception, in 1949. Lacrosse came to l ech that year when six stu¬ dents who had played the game at prep schools and other colleges felt that they should carry on the sport while here at Tech. The spirit of the game was quickly caught by other students, and, when the snow went off that year, twenty-five Boynton Hillers started to form themselves into a team which was to have a very encouraging first season. In the early stages of the team’s development, the group decided that a faculty advisor, who might develop into a team coach, was essential. The man for the job was obviously “Spike” Staples of the M.E. department, whose interest in student affairs and ath¬ letics, and whose participation in ath¬ letics, while an undergraduate, were well known. Though “Spike” had never played lacrosse, his enthusiasm and thoroughness in studying the mechanics of the game, and his ex¬ perience with the team have made him a valuable mentor, and a re¬ spected figure among the players. Mainly from the consideration of finances, the Institute has, thus far, been unable to add the sport to its list of regular athletics. The boys took things into their own hands; after first locating a field for practise, with the support and help of students and faculty, raised the funds necessary to cover team expenses for the first two seasons. The players buy their own personal equipment. Last Fall, the team, with the help of other talented Techmen, staged “Passing Fancies”, a variety show in the style of old-time vaude¬ ville. The show was locally acclaimed as top entertainment. Equally im¬ portant, perhaps, is the fact that the show was a financial success, enabling the team to carry on the 1951 season. But the principal aim of any team is to win games. In this department, too, the Boynton Hillers have done a creditable job. In their first season, 1949, the cl id) lost oidy one game out of seven to a strong team from Brown. point, played a stronger game than was seen in the first two seasons. Be¬ hind the ten usual starters is a strong array of lacrossemen who have devel¬ oped with the team, as well as a complement of newcomers. Squad strength is thirty men. At this writing, the stickmen have made a good start on the 1951 season by defeating Tufts 7-6 in a rough- and-tumble contest, and have beaten the Brown team, at last, by a com¬ fortable 9-4 margin. Teamwork, quick passwork, clearing and defense play look better this year than in the two previous years. Games yet to come, in the 1951 season, at this writ¬ ing, are with Trinity, Lowell Textile, Amherst and the Boston Lacrosse Club. In the second season, the stickmen again came out well ahead. Winning nine of their eleven games, the team was again unable to take tbe Brown aggregate. Wins over Trinity, Middle- bury, and Amherst marked high points of the 1950 season. The prospects of another winning season, in 1951, appears certain. Heavy scoring co-captains. Shorty Ellsworth and Jim Rich, are back in their at¬ tack positions, along with George Seidel, who is starting his third sea¬ son of lacrosse with promise. A 1 Foss, always a tremendous asset in field play and in scoring, is again center midfielder, and, with Don Knowlton and Ken Haaland, will make up a smoothly operating midfield. On the defense, bruisers Brettbauer, Lam- phear and Stanton make a formidable barrier around goalie Carl Commins. The four defenders have, to this INTERFRATERNITY SPORTS TENNIS 1. Theta Chi 2.
