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.
