�THE SENIOR CLASS OF LAWRENCE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
DEDICATION
��THE SENIOR CLASS of 1941 dedicates this L-Book to Professor
Henry L. Byerlay, head of the Electrical Engineering Department.
In any organization, whether it be a college, a factory or a
club there are always a few men who stand above the multitude.
They are the ones who have combined leadership, friendliness,
and a tireless ambition into one outstanding personality. Such a
man is Professor Byerlay. Through his work i n building the laboratories a n d
improving the classes for the electrical engineering
students, the thirteen men receiving
Bachelor of Science degrees from his department w i l l always
remember him. For his inspiring
talks, whether i n the lecture room or at some informal " b u l l
session", none of the students at Lawrence w i l l forget him.
We seniors, especially, owe much to Professor Byerlay, or as
all his pupils call him, "Doc". There is probably no teacher we
have w o r k e d harder for or learned more from. Even with the h a r d
work there weren't any classes w e enjoyed more than his. We
hope that he w i l l accept this dedication as a small d o w n payment
on our debt of gratitude.
��IN R E T R O S P E C T
Nine years ago Russell E. Lawrence founded this institution.
It was at the depth of the worst depression this country ever experienced.
But w i t h a group of men whose vision and idealism
equaled his own, he b e g a n the task of creating a college of engineering w h i c h w o u l d offer not only the theoretical aspects of
engineering, but also make available to the student the opportunity to become proficient i n the practical side of the profession
before graduation.
Those early years were difficult.
The few members of the faculty a n d administration worked long and hard, and oftentimes w i t h the prospect of recompense very remote. But gradually, as the need of a n institution of this type was felt, the enrollment climbed, the faculty was increased, the laboratories
were built up, a n d needed improvements were made.
In 1935, w i t h the future of the college assured, Russell Lawrence
was suddenly stricken and passed on. He h a d finished his job.
Very few i n this graduating class knew Russell E. Lawrence
personally, but a l l , without exception, have been influenced b y
his ideals a n d philosophy as exemplified through this institution
he founded.

�FOUR, FIVE, a n d more years ago, this present Senior class
entered Lawrence Tech. Some started i n day school; some i n
night school.
As freshmen, w e encountered trouble the first week i n the
form of sophomores. The hazing w e l d e d the classes together into
a unit, a n d gradually, each class began to assume a personality
quite distinct a n d different from others. (And remember the school
in those days. The south w i n g was a maze of empty nooks and
crannies—ideal hiding spots from pursuing sophs. There was
the reading room where reception room a n d offices are, the
recreation room i n place of the library, while the fourth floor was
empty a n d used chiefly for chalk a n d eraser fights. V a n the
Bussum held sway i n the News office, a n d Miss Dooley h a d no
good looking assistants.)
Sophomores—and the w o r l d was ours. Friendships were
formed a n d numerous activities entered into. Classes grew
smaller as failures a n d drops took their toll. The w o r l d was taken
apart a n d put together i n daily b u l l sessions. Those of us i n night
school kept p l u g g i n g along, w i t h little time
for activity. School itself was our recreation
(Remember the four m a n basketball games
at noon, lunch at Palmer Park, fraternity
pledging, a n d skip days.)
Pre-juniors—and the half-way mark. We began to specialize
a n d school took on a new interest. Although w e didn't know it
our rah-rah days were ending. Soph-frosh rows were beneath
our notice. Paramount was interest i n our subjects. (Remember
the school a n d fraternity dances, the Moonlights, the football
and basketball games. Founders Days, a n d Bingo parties.)
Juniors—the J-Prom gave us a chance to express ourselves.
We could see the end of the r o a d ahead, w i t h lab reports a n d
tests, study a n d work, obstructing the w a y . (Remember the J-Prom
—the music a n d atmosphere, the large crowd, the G r a n d March
a n d the favors—and w e made money.)
Seniors—at last we're tops. Looking forward to graduation
day, yet hating to see it come. In the past years many changes
a n d improvements were made at the college. Not so apparent,
but just as factual were the changes i n ourselves during this
period. The influence of the school a n d its components upon our
concepts, ambitions, a n d personalities perhaps can never be
measured, but suffice it to say, w e shall always be grateful to
Lawrence Tech.

Buchan Haven, Scotland
Our little Scotch friend from Buchan
Haven was k n o w n as a "fleetfoot
honey" w h e n he p l a y e d the backfield, or rather the backfield p l a y e d
him.
He managed to wane a golf stick
long enough a n d talk loud enough
until he got the captainship of the
golf team, a n d w e mean talk.
When the Senior class needed a
good
tightfisted
Scotchman
for
treasurer, guess who was chosen.

Brother of Prof. E. J., he has a reputation to uphold, both as to scholastic ability and clothes. You should

�THOMAS ANTHONY SIMMS. B.M.E.
Detroit, Michigan
Mr. Thomas Anthony Sims is one of
the many married men i n the senior
class. He didn't say how many i n come tax exemptions there were (oi
should w e say draft deferments?) It
is rumored that w h e n he got married fourteen w o m e n committed suicide. One look at this handsome cuss
is enough to convince anybody.

Wiley J. Voorheis, B.M.E.
Mishawaka, Indiana
The Mishawaka flash, the one and
only Wylie Voorheis. Since he came
to the b i g town, he is somewhat of
a slicker, a Dude or something.
Since he became "city broke" he's a
regular cutup.

NICK M. WASCHE, B.M.E.
Detroit, Michigan
Nick, the woman hater, until about
a year ago. Of a sudden he began
sprucing u p and our spies reported
dancing lessons once a week. His
experience i n the 440 y a r d dash has
served h i m well; he can outrun, out
j u m p and out whistle any instructor
i n the city. There is one thing he'll
never outrun—a determined female.

We have tried for three months to

chances are that Mr. Wulf is the

�WHEN A N ENGINEER designs a structure that must last for a long
time, he is very particular about the foundation. He uses only the
best materials that he can obtain.
The foundation of a college is the faculty. A n engineer, the
late Dean Russell E. Lawrence, designed our school, and he
realized the value of a good teaching body. He believed that
every instructor should not only have a degree, but that he should
also have some industrial experience. His motto for our school
was Theory a n d Practice.
Although Dean Lawrence died i n 1934, his ideals still live on.
Almost every one of the faculty members
FACULTY
has h a d extensive practice i n his respective
field.
The full time instructors are supplemented
by
several of Detroit's best engineers w h o teach one or two
classes i n night school that are directly concerned w i t h their
everyday professions. The students of our school thus get the
benefit of a teacher w h o really knows his work.
We seniors appreciate the time a n d energy the faculty has
expended on our education. M a n y of them have made a deep
and lasting impression on us. We w i l l remember them not only as
teachers but also as helpful friends. They have our most sincere
thanks.

�ONE OF THE greatest assets any school can have is a number
of active clubs. This is especially true of technical schools where
clubs provide good outlets for students wishing to discuss problems pertaining to their respective fields.
Lawrence Tech has a good round variety of clubs i n which the
students can meet a n d discuss problems of mutual interest. There
is the soaring
ORGANIZATIONS
society
for aviation enthusiasts,
the radio club
where
the "hams" a l l gather.
the chemistry club which is usually raising a stink about something or other, and all the rest whose pictures are on the following
pages. Each of these organizations was founded for a definite
purpose and each of them is active i n his field. Their job is
to take some of the drudgery out of learning and they do their
work well.

S T U D E N T COUNCIL
The student council is the student governing body of the school. A l l classes
and all clubs a n d organizations w i t h a membership of thirty-five members or
more are represented on the council. Dr. Graeffe is a member of the council
representing the faculty a n d administration.
The president and vice-president are elected i n a college-wide poll and
inaugurated at the A n n u a l Meeting of the council.
The duties of the council include the publishing of, and responsibility for,
the Lawrence Tech News and the L-Book, regulation of social activities, selection of candidates for the honor fraternity, Lambdo Iota Tau, and responsibility for the Founders Day program.
In addition, the council a w a r d e d keys to deserving members of the Tech
News, gave a n All-Sports banquet to the letter men, and put u p a social
calendar.
E. John Knapp and Wlliam Shortt represented Lawrence at the East Central Regional Convention of the National Student Federation held at Michigan
State on A p r i l I I , 12, 13. The mutual exchange of ideas not only proved of
benefit to the school and council, but the activities and responsibilities of this
Council proved surprising to the other delegates representing some thirty colleges. The boys came home w i t h a greater appreciation of our student form
of government.
The new constitution, which was d r a w n up b y C. Leland Gunn and Don
Winner, was adopted b y the council after approval b y the administration and
passed along to the student body for their approval at the spring election. The
annual election was held i n M a y for the first time to eliminate the lame duck
sessions i n the fall. This cut d o w n the terms of the 40-41 council to five months,
but i n spite of that they managed to accomplish a good deal.

T H E T E C H BOWMEN
In October, 1940, the Lawrence Tech Archery Club was organized and, i n

DEBATING T E A M
When one sees a group of individuals gathered in the h a l l talking loudly
and making many expressive motions, almost invariably the main proponent
is a member

of the debating team. It takes three

the other hand the m i l d mannered C. Lee Zwally or John Ries can
On
easily
discuss many of the less violent subjects w i t h such mental giants as Dean
Hendrickson or Professor Roy Smith and emerge w i t h a grin expressing, " W e l l ,
he understands me n o w . "
To prove that debating is financially helpful, Anton Joen talked the Vickers
Aircraft into a job as prospective chief engineer. Another veteran debater
Albert Busch, has just been drafted. It w i l l be interesting to see if he can talk
his w a y out of that.
Intercollegiate debating has not been accomplished this year because of
the illness of Professor Sherwood Price, the debating coach. However, w i t h
Mr. Price's return next year, the members look forward to a full schedule of
intercollegiate debating.

L A W R E N C E T E C H NEWS
Just as the "L-Book" presents the history of the school year to the
students of Lawrence Tech, "The Lawrence Tech News" presents the
events as they happen on the campus week b y week. The paper is published
bi-weekly b y undergraduates of Lawrence, w i t h the Student Council as the
sponsor.
When the school year began, the Council appointed Don Winner to the
position of Editor-in-Chief. Immediately, Winner appointed Murray Johnston as
News Editor; Ralph Carlson, Features; Duane Duff, Copy; Richard Bork, Sports;
Bob Dixon, Exchange; John Bounker, Business. Later i n the term Ed Donley was
appointed Photographic Editor and Julius Klinec, Assistant Sports Editor. The
reporting staff was made u p of Bishop, Zwally, Emig, Lusky, Starr, Murray,
Webb, Jackson, Banes.
To publish a bi-weekly paper w i t h a staff taken mostly from night school,
is a very difficult task. At the beginning of the year it is a l l very fine; but later,
when the Professors are more insistent about assignments a n d back work, it
is a rather tough proposition. This year conditions were worse for a night staff, w i t h everyone w o r k i n g overtime on defense projects. These are
some of the reasons which forced Don Winner to resign the Editorship at
mid-year.
�JACK BOUNKER
DICK BORK
Realizing that the position required too much of one man the Student
Council appointed Richard Bork a n d John Bounker as Co-Editors. They i n turn
secured more a i d from the day-school i n oder to publish a paper that was more
interesting to a l l the students.
Throughout the year the staff has tried to cover a l l the activities on the campus a n d has succeeded i n doing an adequate job. The biggest handicap has
been that some of the organizations have not supplied the staff with enough
information, either before or after an event, to have complete coverage.
Nevertheless, b y reading this volume of the "Tech News," one could get a full
story of the school year.

�What w e refer to as the Chem Club is i n reality the Lawrence Institute of Technology Chapter of Student Affiliates of the American Chemical Society. The
chapter was reorganized this year to include both d a y students a n d night
students i n its membership.
The Chem Club is a vital, g r o w i n g organization made u p of students who
are eager to explore the ever-widening fields of chemical activity.
The objects of the club are these: "To afford an opportunity for the students
of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering i n Lawrence Institute of Technology to
become better acquainted (with each other a n d w i t h Chemical Engineering
practice), to secure the intellectual stimulation that arises from professional
association, to secure experience i n preparing a n d presenting technical material before chemical audiences, a n d to foster a professional pride i n
Chemistry."
Guest speakers, most of w h o m have been L.I.T. alumni, have presented interesting talks on such subjects as O i l Additivies a n d Greases, Industrial
Spectroscopy, a n d Properties of Fuels.
The club has gone i n a b o d y to several meetings of the Detroit Chapter of
the American Chemical Society. A t these meetings they have been privileged to hear some of the outstanding men i n Chemistry, among w h o m have
been Dr. Ewell of Purdue University, a n d Dr. Whitmore of Pennsylvania State
University.

VARSITY CLUB
The Varsity Club consists of over one hundred letter winners i n the various
intercollegiate sports engaged i n b y the Blue Devils. The purpose of the club is
to promote good sportsmanship and to create a goal for all undergraduates to •
work t o w a r d i n their athletic ventures. The Varsity Club is the very active organization which sponsored the last Homecoming Dance, which was b y far
the most successful ever given b y any Lawrence Tech organization.
They have given out over $600.00 i n varsity sweaters during the past year
a n d they w i l l have given out another $500.00 i n sweaters before this term
ends. This is a marvelous bit of work that has been performed b y this club
through sponsoring moonlight excursions, dances, and other means of entertainment for the student b o d y which proved to be a p a y i n g proposition.

TELEVISION SOCIETY
The Television Society during the past year has added a video signal generator and an iconoscope camera. This completes the equipment necessary
for the televising of scenes and line subjects.
The 112 megacycle transmitter has been rebuilt and a seven tube receiver has been added, making possible the transmission and reception of pictures.
In cooperation w i t h the glass laboratory, cathode ray and other tubes are
under construction for television research.
A L U M N I ASSOCIATION
The Alumni, Association was founded in the fall of 1937. The association as
it now exists is the result of combining all previous efforts extended t o w a r d
organizing the L.I.T. Alumni.
The purpose of this organization is to perpetuate the aims and ideals as set
forth b y Russell E. Lawrence, the founder of the Lawrence Institute of Technology, a n d to keep alive, after leaving school, the friendly spirit a n d m u t u a l
cooperation engendered at school.
The closed activities of the A l u m n i included industrial trips, stag parties,
snow parties, and picnics. Each regular meeting, held the second Monday of
each month, was accompanied b y talks b y men i n industry, success stories
b y men of our o w n group, or pictures on technical and other subjects. Another
activity w h i c h is' carried on throughout the year b y the Association is the contacting of our members wherever they m a y be.

LAWRENCE LENSMEN
The Lawrence Tech camera club, which was founded i n 1937 b y a group
of camera enthusiasts, has shown remarkable progress during the past year.
Inspired b y Mr. Byerlay the club sought a n d obtained permission to handle
the drink dispenser which is located on the second floor. The profits derived
from this machine a n d monthly dues has enabled the lensmen to obtain considerable new equipment, including a Solar enlarger w i t h five-inch interchangeable lens, a large Albert easel, a n d a Kodak safety lamp. They are now
considering the purchase of a print dryer.
At their semi-monthly meetings, interesting a n d instructive lectures are
presented b y George Noe, of General Motors camera club.
The club is active throughout the summer as well as during the school year.
Last summer several trips of photogaphic interest were made b y its members.
Contests are later held to settle any disputes as to w ho is the best photographer.
The Lawrence Lensmen extend this invitation to students w ho are interested i n this hobby to attend our future meetings.

SOARING S O C I E T Y
The Soaring Society of Lawrence Tech was founded i n 1933 b y Professor
Bates a n d Jack Laister for the purpose of giving its members practical training
in the science of b u i l d i n g a n d flying gliders and sailplanes.
A l l of the gliding activities of the Detroit area are centered around Lawrence Tech a n d its aero shop. Every one of the ships of the Detroit Glider
Council have been either built or repaired i n this shop.
In the past year Tech has been represented i n three major soaring contests,
the Southwestern Soaring meet at Wichita Falls, Texas, the National Soaring
Contest at Elmira, New York, a n d the American Open Soaring Contest at Lockport, Illinois. The "Lawrence Tech" a n d the " M i d w e s t " flown b y Professor
Randy Chapman a n d Bill Putnam represented Lawrence at these meets. Guy
Williams, Herb Abrams a n d Bob Plettenberg were i n the ground crew.
A t present the "Lawrence Tech" a n d the single-place utility glider are
being reconditioned for the new season.

RADIO C L U B
The Lawrence Tech Radio Club, w i t h its five years of activity can rightfully take its place as a veteran among school organizations. Under the capable direction of Professor H. L. Byerlay, the club operates its o w n licensed
radio station w i t h the call letters W 8 Q O A .
The station is located i n the club rooms i n the basement of the south w i n g
of the b u i l d i n g a n d may often be heard on the amateur bands, particularly 80
meters, using code a n d phone w i t h its RCA transmitter. Recently club members have treated the club rooms so as to improve the acoustics. In addition, a
library of the latest radio periodicals has been started for the enjoyment a n d
benefit of the members.
Both day a n d night students are members of the club, which holds its meetings i n the Electrical Lab. every second Friday evening. Although most of the
members hold amateur licenses, membership is welcome to any Tech student
interested i n radio. The small initiation fee and yearly dues enable the club to
purchase new equipment as desired.
The Radio Club is especially proud to be the first winner of the Founders
Day Cup. Given last year as a trophy to the organization w i t h the most interesting exhibit. The Club w i l l be on its toes a g a i n this year i n order to retain
the cup.
Among the activities of the club are a candy machine a n d a display cabinet
i n the hall which is kept u p to date w i t h bulletins a n d photographs of current
interest i n radio.
The Radio Club w i l l continue its activities i n the interest of the school a n d
to provide a worthwhile activity for the students of Lawrence Tech.

L A W R E N C E T E C H BAND
The Lawrence Tech Band was formed i n January, 1940, after two previous
attempts at organization. The college was fortunate i n securing the services of
Thomas E. Sadler as its bandmaster. Mr. Sadler is former president of the
Michigan division of the American Bandmasters Association. President E. G.
Lawrence appointed Professor Roy A. Smith as faculty advisor.
Thirty men attended the first meeting, half of w h o m h a d no previous knowledge of music at all. However rehearsals began immediately, one hour a day
and four days a week. Soon a creditable unit was w h i p p e d into shape.
The band played at a l l school functions, such as Founders Day, Graduation, assemblies, a n d athletic events. The first out of town trip was to G r a n d
Rapids to play at the Lawrence-Calvin basketball game. It was a momentous
occasion for the members of the unit and signified the confidence of Mr. Sadler
in the quality of the group. The sound of their alma mater "Dear O l d L.l.T."
proved a n inspiration to the team.
The organization has access to a library of music that is equal to any similar library i n the country. It has g r o w n from thirty men to over forty members i n a year's time, a n d similar increase is expected next year. Martial music
does put into its listeners a spirit a n d confidence, a n d this has been apparent
at Lawrence athletic events w h e n the b a n d makes a n appearance.
Mr. Sadler a n d the men i n the b a n d have w o r k e d long hours to achieve
their success. Much credit must go to Professor Smith for his advice a n d counsel, a n d to the student manager of the b a n d . Wilbert R. Leonard, for his time
and energy spent.

L-BOOK STAFF
The Student Council is financially responsible a n d the Senior Class morally responsible for the publication of the yearbook.
The Seniors elected William Bishop unanimously to direct the affairs of the
1941 L-Book. W i t h the approval of the class, he selected George Johannessen
as Business Manager and Murray Johnston, Assistant Editor i n charge of
Photography.
The rest of the staff included Ralph Carlson, James Happ, Don Winner,
Ralph Emig, John Chung, Wilbert Leonard, Gerald Dorow, and Dave Anderson.
The writeups for the organizations were written b y members of the organizations themselves. A n y changes made were done so in the general interest
of length
and
style.

RIFLE TEAM
One of the most successful Tech teams this year was the Rifle team.
The team was responsible for the second Big Ten invasion of Tech. With an outstanding record of nine victories, t w o defeats, and one tie, the results of
matches with the biggest and best teams in the country, the team was looking
forward to participation i n the National Inter-collegiate shoulder-to-shoulder
matches. The amazing rise of Tech's standing from fifty-fourth in the nation to
ninth, warrants the highest expectations from the team in this match.

�FRATERNITIES play a prominent part in American College Life
and have a marked influence upon their members.
Young men, having the same background, tastes and aspirations, naturally form among themselves enduring friendships and
FRATERNITIES
develop as 'esprit de corps.'
A fraternal order takes great
pride i n the achievements of
its members i n competition
w i t h members of similar organizations on the campus i n scholarship, athletic contests, or i n other student activities.
This spirit is developed to a remarkable degree at Lawrence
Tech, for fraternity men form the backbone of all the important
school activities.

Oh, yes, I remember it was back i n '38; to be exact it was November, 1938—
let me see—it started off this w a y — a group of energetic a n d active students i n
the day school realized the need for a new fraternity i n our A l m a Mater. The
desirable men w i t h fairly high scholastic averages a n d good organizing
ability were invited to a meeting i n the Architectural study. With the a i d of
Dean Hendrickson they began the first steps for the actual formation of the
fraternity.
Then came March 5, 1939. With a charter, 14 members, a n d the support of
the college, they started their fight for existence, as we a l l have to do sooner
or later. Now after three years y o u can see for yourself that they were the
busiest and most progressive fraternity. As for membership they now have
about 39 men, a new house, high scholastic standing, an ever-increasing popularity a n d also lead an active social life.
The activities of the fraternity have been many and varied. They include
a summer picnic, a Hallowe'en party, scavenger hunt, annual dinner, pledge
mixers, house-warming party, stag parties, roller-skating party, and the hotdog concession at the football games.

This year witnessed the founding of the fourth social fraternity at Lawrence
Tech. Delta Sigma was organized i n response to a demand for more social
fraternities on the campus. Like all n e w l y formed social bodies, Delta Sigma
encountered the usual amount of obstacles which beset the organization of
such groups. However the charter members succeeded i n shaping the fraternity into a small a n d compact group with a definite program to follow,
Delta Sigma looks forward to a successful and useful role i n the extra-curricular life of Lawrence Institute of Technology.

In the month of January, 1940, the varsity fencers at Lawrence Institute of
Technology, realizing the need of a fraternal order which combined the promotion of both athletic a n d scholastic endeavor, added the Lawrence Tech
Chapter to the National Fraternity of the Scimitar, the m a i n chapter of which
was organized at the University of Illinois. Chapters have since been formed
at the University of Michigan a n d at Michigan State College.
The objectives of the Scimitar are threefold: to promote interest a n d competition i n National Collegiate Fencing; to promote higher scholastic endeavor;
and to further the best ideals of sportsmanship. It was w i t h these ideals i n
mind that the fraternity was installed at Lawrence Tech, w i t h the initiation
handled b y the University of Michigan.
Active membership i n the fraternity shall be extended only to those i n their
second year of fencing at Lawrence Tech. Honorary membership may be conferred b y the unanimous vote of the active members of the fraternity upon any
man w h o has rendered or w h o m a y render distinguished service to the cause
of fencing.
Dr. Edwin Graeffe has been appointed faculty advisor because of the work
he has done i n furthering interest i n fencing at Lawrence a n d also for the
excellent coaching he has done i n previous years, especially i n 1939 when the
Lawrence Tech team w o n the John L. Osis Intercollegiate Championship Cup.
�LAMBDA IOTA TAU
The honor society at Lawrence Tech was formed to encourage a h i g h
scholastic standing a n d increase active participation i n extra-curricular activities. The name was appropriately chosen from the Greek letters representing L.I.T.
Founded i n 1934, the fraternity is governed b y the Student Council which
approves the selection of all candidates.
Membership keys are a w a r d e d annually to Seniors who fulfill the requirements for admission. To be eligible, the candidates must have at least a " B "
average. In addition he must have participated in a prescribed amount of
extra-curricular activities.
The membership is necessarily limited to students who have achieved a n
enviable scholastic record combined w i t h service i n the various phases of
college life.

�INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL
The Inter-fraternity Council was organized this past year for
the purpose of promoting a closer relationship among the Fraternities and promoting activities w h i c h shall be of benefit to all
fraternities.
Each meeting is conducted b y a member of one fraternity w i t h
each fraternity having charge of successive meetings.
Thus far, the council has regulated rushing a n d pledging. The
by-laws are still in the process of the original drafting. Plans are
already i n the progress of the Inter-Fraternity Ball w h i c h w i l l be
an annual Occasion.
�THE FOLLOWING pages are dedicated to those men who have
represented Lawrence Tech in the various collegiate sports. The
spirit of sportsmanship and fair play that these men showed in
. their competition was a credit to their school. These fellows, who
spent many of their few vacant hours in practicing deligently at
one or more of their sports, deserve more credit than they generally received They participated in nearly every collegiate sport and engaged some of the leading
collegiate teams in the country.
The impression that a school's teams make on
the general public is all too often the impression that the public
has of the school. The men of our teams have made a fine impression and have enhanced the reputation of Lawrence Tech.
The "Blue Devil" teams have built up a fine reputation for winning teams in the collegiate world, but what is even more important, they have developed a feeling of respect for their teams
by such good sportsmanship whether, winning or losing.

The 1940 football season was a success as the "Blue Devils" ended the year
with a record of 6 victories and 3 defeats. As far as the Michigan-Ontario Collegiate Conference was concerned, the boys ended w i t h 3 victories and 1
defeat. This was good enough to give them a three w a y tie for the championship with DeSales and Assumption and it enabled them to a d d another victory
monument to the trophy case.
The varsity gridders held their week of training at Camp Rankin, near Port
Sandillac on Lake Huron. By the time the team returned to Detroit everyone
was in excellent physical condition. At Camp Rankin, Coach Don Ridler found
several promising prospects amongst the new gridders. The most promising
of these were Jack Dowd, tackle; Emil Neeme and Bob Coogan, guards; and
Jack Coogan, a halfback.
The Lawrence Tech team opened its season against a strong Hillsdale team
which hadn't been beaten i n 3 years. The "Blue Devils" finally emerged with
a 19 to 9 victory, after a t w o touchdown rally i n the last period. This game was
played at Hillsdale under the lights. Besides this victory the "Blue Devils"
boasted victories over Grand Rapids University, Defiance, St. Mary's, Assumption, and Ferris. The three defeats were by Wittenberg, DeSales and Indiana State.
The "Blue Devils" lost a rather unexciting game to the Indiana State
teachers College i n Terre Haute, Indiana, b y the score of 20 to 7. This victory
for the Hoosiers gave them their revenge for the 20 to 13 beating Tech handed
them the previous year. The game was more of a punting duel v;"ith Tech putting u p a better fight than the score indicated.
The gridders w o n their first M.O.C.C. game of the year b y defeating Assumption College at Windsor, Ontario, in a night game 10 to 0. The "Blus
Devils" lone touchdown came i n the second period w i t h halfback Bob Utter
plunging over from the five-yard line. Charles Archer took care of the rest of
the scoring b y booting the extra point and then b y kicking a field goal from
the twenty-yard line in the d y i n g minutes of the game.
�Lawrence Tech opened their home football season b y trouncing G r a n d
Rapids University 27 to 12 at Ives Field. This game also marked the first showing of the newly formed Lawrence Tech Band, which put on a g r a n d show
during the half. The "Blue Devils" really outclassed the "Lancers" b y running
u p a total of 27 first downs a n d scoring i n each period.
The "Blue Devils" took the lead i n the M.O.C.C. race b y defeating Ferris
20 to 0 at Big Rapids, Michigan, before a large Ferris homecoming crowd.
Lawrence Tech was held scoreless i n the first half b y the strong Ferris defense,
but i n the second half their defense cracked a n d the "Blue Devils" smashed
through for three touchdowns. Ferris was completely outplayed as Tech gained
16 first downs to 3 for Ferris.
Lawrence Tech lost their Homecoming game to the "Fighting Lutherans"
of Wittenberg College b y the score of 20 to 0. The Wittenberg eleven was
one of the strongest amongst the smaller schools i n the mid-west; i n ten games
they were unbeaten a n d untied. Tech battled Wittenberg on even
terms throughout the game except for a few times i n the first half w h e n the
"Fighting Lutherans" scored a l l of their points. Both teams made 17 first downs,
w i t h Tech getting 10 i n the second half to 0 for Wittenberg.
DeSales College defeated the Blue Devils i n the last home game of
the year b y the decisive score of 33 to 7. This put the M.O.C.C. race i n a threew a y tie for first w i t h Lawrence, Assumption a n d DeSales sharing the top berth.
The game was much closer than the score indicates.
Lawrence Tech i n v a d e d Ohio a g a i n for their last game of the year and returned w i t h a 26 to 2 victory over Defiance College. Coach Ridler ended this
very successful season b y using his entire squad i n this last game. The "Blue
Devils" p l a y e d brilliant football a n d justy deserved this victory.
At the end of the season the coaches of the M.O.C.C. met to pick their
annual All-Conference team. Lawrence Tech was very well represented w i t h five members on this team: Al Schreke, guard; Walter Nowacki, tackle;
Fred Dupke, end; Harry Awdey, halfback; a n d Jack Coogan, halfback. Incidently, it should be noted that this is the third year i n a row that Dupke has received this honor, Awdey and Coogan were easily the best halfbacks. Awdey
slightly more experienced, was an excellent passer a n d runner. Coogan was
the find of the year. Jack hailing from Dearborn was b y far the most deadly
blocker a n d tackier i n the conference.
The Detroit Free Press picked an All-Metropolitan Detroit team a n d a g a i n
Lawrence was represented. This time it was " b i g " Jack Dowd to receive the
honor b y being given the tackle post on the first team. Dupke a n d Ribbentrop
were placed on the alternate squad.

��The next night Lawrence Tech met Edinboro State Teachers College at
Edinboro, Pennsylvania, i n their final game of the Eastern invasion. The "Blue
Devils" dropped another decision after they h a d been leading during the entire
game b y the score of 46 to 44. Edinboro killed a l l of Tech's hopes b y sinking a
basket i n the final seconds.
The "Blue Devils" took second place i n the M.O.C.C. race b y defeating
Assumption College at Windsor, Ontario. This was the roughest game of the
season w i t h tackling a n d tumbling being very prominent. A pair of graduates
from last year's freshman team, Sam Lieberman a n d Paul Ribbentrop, stole
the scoring honors for Lawrence b y scoring 10 points each. The "Blue Devils"
led throughout the game w i t h the final score being 47 to 34.
The cagers reserved their best p l a y of the year for the home fans as they
defeated the favored DeSales five at the Hackett Field House b y
the score of 47 to 38. The Lawrence hoopsters functioned smoothly and turned
on the power from the very beginning as they sprinted into an early lead which
they d i d not relinquish. The p l a y was extremely fast a n d the game was the
best ever seen at the Hackett Field House. Sheldon Harris stole the show as
he scored twelve points b y m a k i n g brilliant baskets that brought the spectators to their feet.
The Lawrence Varsity cagers established a record as they soundly
trounced a Cleary College five, b y the score of 73 to 16. This is the highest
score that a Lawrence five has made i n the school's history. Coach Ridler substituted freely, a n d could have made the score a lot worse. The highest previous score was the 70 points scored against Cleary last year.
The Lawrence Tech "Blue Devils" extended their string of victories to six
as the "Purple Raiders" of Assumption College fell to the smart a n d fast moving
Tech quintet b y a 43 to 25 score. One of the most evident features of the game
was the fast play a n d excellent b a l l handling which Ridler's boys displayed.
This game gave Lawrence four victories i n five M.O.C.C. games.
The Blue Devils defeated a strong Illinois Tech team, b y the score of 40 to
36 at the Holy Redeemer Gym. Lawrence was trailing b y seven points w i t h
five minutes to go when Chuck Havill put some spirit into the team b y making
two of his left-handed shots off the side of the backboard. Then the boys really
clicked as they scored eleven points to none for Illinois i n those last five exciting minutes. This game h a d one of those typical story book endings.
The "Blue Devils" lost their final game of the year to the strong Calvin
College team before 2,500 spectators at the Hackett Field House b y the score
of 49 to 36. This game, p l a y e d before the largest home crowd i n Tech's history,
gave the M.O.C.C. championship to Calvin, Tech placing second. Calvin
scored seven points before Lawrence was able to score a point. The outstanding play for the "Blue Devils" was furnished b y D'Arcy O'Neill, p l a y i n g the
backboard hard a n d p l a y i n g the best defensive game of the team. Breene, of
Calvin, led a l l the scorers w i t h 17 points. Calvin showed its excellent school
spirit b y the attendance of 200 of its o w n rooters.
�This was a very successful season for the "Blue Devils" cagers as they w o n
13 games while losing only 9. Coach Don Ridler deserves a lot of credit for
this teams fine showing a n d next year he should have even a better season
with the entire team returning w i t h the exception of Ken Reas w h o has played
his four years of varsity basketball.
Ken Reas was named captain of the All-M.O.C.C. team at his g u a r d position b y the coaches at a meeting held at Assumption College on March 17,
1941. Reas also climaxed his collegiate basketball career b y being named on
the first team of the All-Metropolitan Detroit Collegiate team. D'Arcy O'Neill
was named on the second All-M.O.C.C. team while Sheldon Harris received a n
honorable mention on both the All-M.O.C.C. team a n d the All-City team.

The 1940 Lawrence Tech baseball team h a d a very successful season w i n ning four games while losing only two. The team was coached b y Don Ridler,
with Julius Klinec acting as manager.
The "Blue Devils" opened their collegiate schedule b y p l a y i n g host to the
Cleary College nine. Walter Nowacki almost reached baseball's hall of fame
by holding Cleary hitless through six long innings, then the Cleary second
baseman hit the b a l l over second base for Cleary's only hit of the game.
Nowacki h a d to be content w i t h his one-hitter as Tech went on a rampage
scoring eleven runs to one unearned r u n for Cleary. Jim Smith and Floyd Guest,
first a n d second basemen respectively led the "Blue Devils" attack b y collecting three hits apiece.
�Tech then journeyed to Alma to battle the A l m a College team. Frank Wummel started on the mound for Lawrence and received credit for the 8 to 6 victory although he was relieved b y Nowacki i n the sixth inning. Sheldon Harris,
regular shortstop, was the individual star both at bat and on the field.
The baseball team resumed their traveling, this time going d o w n into Ohio
to engage Findlay College in a double header. Tech lost the first game w h e n
Findlay rallied to score 5 runs i n the eighth inning and drive Nowacki off the
mound. Sheldon Harris again led the Tech attack b y rattling out three h a r d
hits. John McHugh was injured i n the early part of the game w h e n he ran Into
the fence while chasing a w i l d ball.
Bob Collins pitched a two-hit shutout as Tech defeated Findlay in the
night-cap of their doubleheader, 7 to 0. Frank Wummel was the batting star
of the game as he collected 3 out of 6, one being a long, w e l l hit homerun.
Harris provided the fielding thrill of the game w h e n he went to deep short to
throw out a m a n w i t h a potential r u n on third base. Billy Goldberg took over
the catching assignment and between him and Collins they kept the Findlay
hitters off balance throughout the game.
Lawrence Tech entertained the Toledo University nine at Northwestern Field i n the last home game of the year. Frank Wummel w o n his second
game of the year b y holding Toledo to five hits. The "Blue Devils" w o n the
game b y blasting out eleven hits to give them q 7 to 4 victory. Ray Cassmere
got Tech's longest hit of the year, a homer that scored another r u n ahead of
h i m for a n early lead. Floyd Guest also starred at bat b y getting two doubles
out of four trips to the plate.
Toledo University got revenge for the defeat Tech handed them b y defeating the "Blue Devils" 4 to 0 at Toledo. Tech's hitters were practically helpless against Toledo's Negro pitching ace. This game ended a very successful collegiate baseball season.
Lawrence Tech then sponsored a team in the Detroit Baseball Federation
Class A. This team, w h i c h was the same team as the collegiate nine, had a
successful season i n the Class A and w o n a good share of their games.

The 1940 Tech tennis team was built around three experienced juniors:
Ralph Emig, Dannie Taras, a n d Clayton Schultz. The team was well prepared
for their spring matches because of the thorough training they h a d received
at the Hackett Field House under the direction of Coach Peterson during the
long winter months.
The opening match of the year found the Blue Devils losing to Kalamazoo
College on the slippery floor of the Hornet field house. In the following matches
the netters performed much better; they defeated St. Mary's and tied
the Wayne University Frosh, a n d then lost two close matches to Highland Park
Junior College, one to Calvin, a n d one to the Wayne Frosh.
�At the Conference meet held at Grand Rapids, the "Blue Devils',, handicapped b y an unfavorable draw, ended the first days singles matches b y trailing Calvin and St. Mary's b y three points a n d Ferris b y four points. Then on
the following day the number one doubles team of co-captains Ralph Emig
and Dannie Taras, took matters into their o w n hands and w o n the Michigan-Ontario Collegiate Conference doubles championship without losing a set to
their opponents i n the entire tournament. This netted the ' Blue Devils" six
points a n d a tie for second place i n the team standings w i t h St. Mary's. Ferris
w o n the team championship, while Alex Gorski of St. Mary's w o n the singles
title for the third straight year.

GOLF--1940
The team of 1940 was without doubt the finest that ever represented Lawrence Tech on the fairways. Proof of this statement can not be found i n comparative scores, but from the assurance of Capt. Dave Anderson and Marvin Fawley. These boys ought to know, both h a v i n g played for Tech since '37.
Kenny Kerr, a newcomer to the game, took over the number one slot usually
occupied b y either Anderson or Fawley. He is the smoothest little golfer ever
seen at Lawrence. Harry Awdey of football fame alternated at the number two
slot with Dave Anderson a n d turned i n some swell scores. Another newcomer,
Larry Freese, gave Marvin Fawley a battle for the number four slot. The
M.O.C.C. tournament was held at Grand Rapids, w i t h Ferris dominating the
match from the very first tee a n d Lawrence h a d to rally brilliantly i n the afternoon round to take third place, w i t h DeSales taking second. W i t h these four
veterans as a nucleus, Tech should have a banner year i n '41.

TRACK--1940
The Lawrence Tech track team performed remarkably w e l l considering the
lack of interest shown in this sport. The runners practiced daily at Ford Field
and were in excellent condition for their spring meets. The boys received
their b i g disappointment when all their meets except the M.O.C.C. meet
were rained out.
The Tech track team finished second in the Conference meet right behind
Calvin. Calvin w o n the M.O.C.C. championship for the second straight year.
The meet was held on a slow, rain-soaked track at Belle Isle i n Detroit. The
"Blue Devils" squad placed at least one man i n every event, but they didn't
take enough firsts to w i n .

FENCING-1940-41
The Lawrence Tech fencing team composed of Roland Rogers (foil, epee,
saber), Peter Camilletti (foil a n d saber), Ted Mayer (foil a n d epee), and King
Clifford (foil a n d saber), h a d a comparatively poor season. The team was
handicapped b y the loss of Eugene Jakubowski a n d Marion Kolasa, a n d the
fact that there were no graduates of last year's freshman team capable of filling the vacancies.
The "Blue Devils" opened the season against Cranbrook College on our
home floor. The Tech fencers emerged victorious b y the commanding score of
15 to 9. Roland Rogers a n d Peter Camilletti, the t w o veterans, led the Lawrence attack b y accounting for 10 of the points; Rogers collecting 6 while Camilletti was gathering 4.
The fencing team then suffered three defeats i n a row b y Northwestern
University, Cranbrook College, and Michigan State College. The strong Northwestern University team defeated Tech 15 to 9. Rogers a g a i n starred for Tech
by collecting 6 of the team's nine points.
The loss to Cranbrook was excusable as both Rogers a n d Camilletti were
unable to take part i n the match because of their work. Michigan State College
defeated Tech b y one point, 9 to 8. Rogers was responsible for 5 of the 8
points registered b y Tech, while Camilletti collected the other 3.
Next year's team should a g a i n fill the prestige developed b y Lawrence
Tech fencing teams of the past. Dr. Graeffe w i l l have available several members of this year's successful freshman team to battle the varsity for their positions.

�RIFLE TEAM
The Lawrence Tech rifle team was composed of members of the Rifle Club,
who because of excellence i n marksmanship were chosen to represent
the school i n varsity competition. The members of the team were chosen on
each man's o w n merit, which insured m a x i m u m efficiency i n the collegiate
matches.
The "Blue Devils" w o n 10 matches out of their schedule of 17, while losing
6 and tying 1. The Tech riflemen h a d matches w i t h the strongest teams i n the
country. Washington State, Georgia Tech, University of Chicago, Ohio State
University, University of Michigan, a n d the University of Illinois are among
the teams which Lawrence has shot w i t h this year. The Rifle Team also boasts
of victories over t w o "Big Ten" teams; the University of Illinois a n d the University of Chicago.
The Lawrence Tech Rifle Team, after this very successful season, is now
ranged ninth i n the national standings for collegiate teams. This is a wonderful
record for a school the size of Lawrence Tech. The team is led b y Captain
James Whateley and Manager Orval Opperthouser.
This year as i n the past the b i g event of the year was the National
North Central Regional Shoulder to Shoulder shoot-offs held at Chicago. Over
a hundred colleges were represented at this meet, which included a l l
the major teams i n the nation.
Next year a league composed of the University of Michigan, Ohio State,
and Lawrence Tech, plus two or more colleges not yet named w i l l give Lawrence its most active season.
FROSH FENCING
Dr. Graeffe h a d great difficulty i n finding enough material for his freshmen
squad, because most of them worked on Saturday, the only day to practice.
Graeffe tried every means he knew to get more fellows to try out for the
team, but each Saturday found merely a handful of students present. In disgust he decided to try to assemble his class during the noon hour which proved
to be the missing link i n the process of training his fencers for future participation on his varsity team, which is always considered one of the best teams i n
the country.
The noon hour class was organized early i n Section "C's" second term, for
beginning fencers w h o were unable to attend the Saturday afternoon sessions. At its first meeting the class unanimously elected Roy Morris and Don
Roesch, manager a n d assistant manager, respectively.
When the class h a d progressed sufficiently, members were chosen to represent Lawrence Tech i n matches against high school fencing teams i n the
metropolitan area. Graeffe is developing some fine material that he w i l l be
able to use on, his next year's varsity team. The one member of the team that
looks like the most promising varsity fencing material is Jack Zimelow, a varsity tennis player.
�B. B. BASKETBALL
The Lawrence Tech intramural program sponsored a team in the Highland
Park "BB" Recreation League, under the direction of Julius Klinec. This "BB"
team gave a creditable performance a n d finished the season w i t h a record of
8 wins a n d 5 defeats. The "BB" boys qualified for the playoffs a n d advanced
into the championship round where they were beaten b y the strong "Time-Outs" b y one point.
The best exhibition of basketball given b y the Lawrence Tech "BB" team
was their 34 to 32 victory over the previously undefeated "Time-Outs." The
game, played at the Hackett Field House, was the best "BB" contest played
there that year, according to Mr. Myron, Recreation Director at the Highland
Park center. The "BB" boys established some kind of a record w h e n they scored
10 points i n about 2/ minutes. Chester Popularski threw i n the w i n n i n g basket
12
w i t h about 50 seconds to go. Julius Klinec led a l l the scorers w i t h 16 points.
The Lawrence Tech "BB" team led the Highland Park Recreation League
during the first round a n d placed second i n the second round playoffs. Julius
Klinec, the Lawrence Tech five's manager a n d star player, led the entire
league i n scoring a n d was closely followed b y Bernie Cohen and Chester Popularski. These boys deserve a lot of credit for the fine b r a n d of basketball they
showed despite the poor support given them b y the student body.
FROSH B A S K E T B A L L
The Lawrence Tech Freshman basketball team h a d a very successful season
under the direction of Coach Jelsch. The Frosh w o n 14 of their scheduled 25
games against some of the toughest competition i n the state. Some of the
tougher opponents met b y the freshmen were: Calvin Reserves, Ferris
Reserves, Western State Frosh, Wayne Frosh, Highland Park Junior College,
University of Detroit Frosh, a n d the Ditzler Color Co., the Class A champions
and only undefeated Class A team.
The Frosh pulled an upset b y defeating the Calvin College Reserves i n a
game p l a y e d as a preliminary to the varsity game between the two schools at
the Hackett Field House. The contest was a see-saw affair which found the
Tech freshmen i n front at the end of every period, a n d they finally emerged
the victors b y a 41 to 36 score. This brought the Frosh revenge for the 52 to 42
defeat handed them at G r a n d Rapids on an earlier date.
The Lawrence Tech Freshmen also boast of two victories over the Wayne
University Frosh, one over the Ferris Reserves a n d the Highland Park Junior
College. They also w o n playoff births i n the Highland Park Class A League.
Clair Dunderman was the leading scorer and also b y far the fastest man on
the freshman team. He looks like good varsity material and he may be the one
that Ridler w i l l use i n place of Ken Reas, the mainstay of the varsity team for
the past four years. There were also some other fine players on this team that
w i l l be worthwhile additions to next year's varsity basketball team.

INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL
The Intramural Basketball League season opened w i t h six teams participating; Blitz-Kriegers, Spit-Fires, Top-Hatters, Kromas, Badgers, a n d the A l l
Stars. There were many good games i n this unusually fast league with the
Top-Hatters, the Spit-Fires a n d the A l Stars dominating the play.
The Top-Hatters ended the regular season on top with a record of five wins
and one defeat. The Spit-Fires ended their season a good second with four
victories a n d one defeat. The two top teams then engaged i n a three-game
tournament for the championship of the league. The Spit-Fires emerged victorious i n the first of the three-game series b y defeating the Top-Hatters 47 to
39 i n a fast, exciting, h a r d fought game.

�DEDICATION
"Education must be lifelong" is the motto of Professor John S. Rackway,
genial chairman of the Drawing Department. Always willing, always helpful,
alays considerate, and always conscientious is "Uncle John," under whose
tutelage all students must directly or indirectly come.
Ready to aid every student, "Uncle John" carries an amazing assortment
of knowledge and teaching experience under his portentious "belt." Starting
his teaching career at the Municipal Engineering School of Berlin, where he
later occupied a professor's chair. Professor Rackway fled the inhumanities of
the Nazi's to teach the refugee Chinese students in Shanghai. From China he
was called in 1940 to teach at Lawrence Tech.
Though amazingly versatile in his knowledge of Mechanics, Strength of
Materials, Physics, Engineering Drawing, Music, and Architecture (what he
terms "frozen music"), he still finds time to be an active member oi various
engineering and educational societies in addition to collecting stamps, directing a choir, translating technical German works, studying architectural history
and remembering the first and last names of most of his past and present
students.
For wit and wisdom, "Uncle John" acknowledges no peer; for his untiring
efforts in making us realize the importance of the dictum "to learn is to learn
thinking," we, the class of 1949, respectfully and gratefully dedicate this book
to Professor John S. Rackway.
�FOUNDER
Russell E. Lawrence, 1889-1934
The story of Lawrence Tech is a unique one i n the history of the development of engineering schools.
Starting i n a n unpretentious building w i t h a handful of students, the faculty and administration worked
day and night to fulfill a dream—Lawrence
Tech of Today.
A n d the dream was achieved. Students
from the four corners of the w o r l d now gather i n the halls a n d classrooms i n preparation for the educational accolade awarded i n graduation. Yesterday a n d today are realized; Tomorrow awaits.
You, the Graduates of 1949, are the Lawrence Tech of Tomorrow. To y o u have been given the tasks
of tomorrow's achievements. You have been endowed w i t h the golden seeds of yesterday's knowledge. It is your task to make this knowledge blossom forth into the tree of fulfillment. G u a r d it jealously for it embodies the hopes of

�The pathway to life and responsibility is paved in three
integrated parts: environment, individual, and education. The first
two portions are combined and solidified by the time the student
enters a school of higher learning. The third is in the formative
stage and awaits the final mold and polish that can be added
only by those instructors who, by their example, teach us to
think independently and to use the tools of knowledge for their
final application in our future life. These embody the qualities
of the faculty of the Lawrence Institute of Technology.
Thus, what we are upon graduation and what we shall be in
our future lives is the example of the devotional ideals of these
men. That they have succeeded we know; that we shall uphold
the quality of their example is the task set before us.
Therefore, we, the graduates, gratefully take this opportunity
to present the faculty and administration of the Lawrence Institute of Technology.

�Registration day i n the fall of 1945 was a strange morning
in the halls of Lawrence Tech. Greetings and shouts of welcome
could be heard a l l over the school as groups of war-worn veterans came back to the school i n which they had started their
engineering education. It was strange to be back in a sanctuary
of study; it was familiar to them and yet everything was new.
For the next two years, other groups came home and took
their places i n the class rooms of Lawrence Tech. Here they
joined pre-war friends and other classmates, readjusted themselves to students' life, and continuously strove towards the goal
which they had set for themselves.
This, i n brief, is the story of the men pictured on the following
pages. Young men who carried the banner of freedom on the
battlefields of the w o r l d so that they could practice that ideal i n
the classrooms of American colleges.
These are the graduates of 1943. Respect them. They have
conquered once and they are to conquer again.

Alpha Gamma Upsilon is the second oldest social fraternity on the campus. Lawrence Tech's chapter, Epsilon, founded i n June, 1933, is the fifth chapter of A l p h a G a m m a Upsilon. This year, with the
founding of the tenth chapter the fraternity has attained the status of a national organization.
This year the fraternity has the largest a n d most active membership list i n its history. Alpha Gamma
men have participated i n m a n y extra curricular interests here at Lawrence Tech. A m o n g these are
their activeness i n student-government which can be seen b y the high percentage of members holding
responsible positions i n undergraduate organizations.
The fraternity's journalistic zeal paid off as the "Epsilonian" w o n the Journalism cup a w a r d last
year. The chapter paper is a strong contender a g a i n this year.
Included in the past season's social calendar were b o w l i n g leagues, bridge tournaments, challenge
games in all sports and a Christmas Party given for needy children.

As the 1949 school year comes to a close the members of Phi Kappa Upsilon can look back on a year
of merit and ahead to a promising future.
A healthy and active fraternity can be one of the greatest assets of Lawrence Tech; this is the prime
purpose of the fraternity. Phi Kappa has been pledged to the betterment of the school and its activties
from its founding and each passing year has shown progress to this goal.
The progress that has been made since its reactivation after the return of the members that were
in the service has been largely due to the men that are leaving at this time due to graduation; the job
ahead of them was big and they have done well.
The fraternity activities of the last year included two pledge seasons, the annual dinner dance, the
inter-frat dance and several picnics.

Chapter is composed of night school students a n d the Beta Chapter is made up of day school students.
Rho Delta Phi is purely a social fraternity, but it takes an active interest i n a l l school affairs and
endeavors at a l l times to promote the interests of the school and to promote cooperation and good will
among a l l of the campus groups.
The Rho Delts took a n active lead i n the setting u p of the Inter-fraternity Council and its associated
activities. The Rho Delts have taken an active part i n student government and publications and have
placed m a n y leaders i n other campus groups.
The year 1949 was a banner year for the Rho Delts. The fraternity reached a record membership
with two good pledge seasons. This year marked the launching of the A l p h a Omega Chapter for alumni members.

�INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL
Members of the four fraternities on campus raise up their voices i n unison displaying the integration
of a common ideal of brotherhood among men. This scene took place at the A n n u a l Inter-Fraternity
Dance where all the fraternities combined their promotion talents to put on one of the highlights of
the combined fraternity social season.
Realizing that all the fraternities on campus were basically formed for the betterment of high ideals
at Lawrence Tech a council composed of representatives from the four fraternities was formed to correlate certain activities and interests for their m u t u a l benefit.
One of the primary functions of the council is to screen a l l pledge candidates for scholarship and
regulate the opening dates of the rushing season. The council also keeps record of a calender of activity
dates and in conjunction with the Student Council facilitates a smoother and more enjoyable social season for the active Tech student.

A desire to encourage interest and advance their knowledge i n the field of astronomy prompted a
group of students, sponsored b y Mr. Thomson of the M a t h Department, to organize the Astronomy Club.
Since their organization i n September of 1948 the members have designed and constructed a 6 inch
reflector telescope as one of the constructive projects planned b y the group.
In conjunction with the telescope construction, the members conducted a tour of the Observatory at
Cranbook Academy. While there the members observed many stellar phenomenon including double
stars and the rings of Saturn through an eight inch variable power telescope.
Since the formation of the club, the members have h a d the pleasure of hearing many interesting
lectures pertaining to the field of astronomy. Here at Lawrence Tech they heard Dr. Brewington's
interesting account of "The Expanding Universe" a n d M r . Bagby's lecture on "The Extent of the Universe." The group also journeyed to A n n Arbor to hear Dr. George Gamon, who is a n expert on Astrophysics, lecture on "The Evolution of the Universe."
In addition to the lectures given b y prominent members of the faculty and experts i n the field, the
members held seminars and round table discussions on topics i n the field of astronomy for which they
have special interest.
The club has shown itself to be one of the most r a p i d l y growing organizations on campus with an
increasing number of activities planned to accommodate the interest here at Lawrence. A n interest
in the field of astronomy is the only requisite for membership i n the club.

The purpose of this organization is primarily to facilitate the exchange of knowledge in industrial
engineering problems and to give the student engineer a clearer understanding of how such problems
are met and dealt with in actual practice. The society also keeps abreast of new ideas and important
events i n the industrial field.
This has been done in the past by tours through local industrial plants, lectures by men who are
engaged in this type of work, literature from various companies and State examinations for registered
engineers.
At present the Industrial Society is in the process of reorganization. The primary purposes will, of
course, remain the same and many of the old functions will continue as in the past. Fortunately, however, there is expected to be a broader and more complete coverage of interesting material available to
all members of the society.
Prof. L. C. Bagby, Industrial Engineering department head, and Dr. Edwin Graeffe, Dean of the
Business Administration School, are faculty advisors for the society.

Membership in the Civil Engineering Society at Lawrence Tech has become a "must" for students
majoring in the field of Civil Engineering. The society has been instrumental in the development of
the Civil Engineering department and has done much to advance the required relations between classroom work and the latest developments in the field.
Field trips during the past year have taken members out to actual job sites where professional
methods and techniques can be observed and made valuable to the engineering student.
The members also carry out experimental tests and prepare soil specimens for use in the laboratory
sessions. The compilation of data of this nature has proved invaluable to the student as well as the
engineer in the field.
Affiliation with professional groups and the obtaining of current periodicals and data have been another important factor in bringing about closer ties with the latest practices.
The society is primarily technical and membership is open to all students majoring in civil engineering. The group functions through the Civil Engineering department with Mr. McClurg currently acting
as its faculty advisor.

The rapid growth of the Aeronautical Engineering Department at Lawrence Tech gave rise to the
need for an organization of professional standing for the advancement and dissemination of knowledge of the theory and practice of the aeronautical sciences.
The Lawrence Tech Student Branch of the LA.S. has been very active in the encouragement of professional consciousness by presenting films, sponsoring lectures and attending national discussion
meetings.
Some of the films presented during the past year have featured the theory and characteristics of
rockets, jets and gliders. Highlight of the year's activity was the Second Annual Dinner at the Rackham Engineering Memorial in conjunction with the Tri-University Aeronautical Paper Competition.

Since its inception i n 1946, the Lawrence Tech Soaring Society has made enviable progress in the
advancement of motorless flight at Lawrence Tech. The present society, under the sponsorship of Prof.
George Martin, is a re-organization of the pre-war Soaring Society.
Beginning with a lim.ited amount of materials a n d facilities, the Soaring Society has constructed and
flown a Midwest utility glider, now being used for training purposes. The Society has acquired a set
of v/ings for converting the present glider to an intermediate sailplane. Plans are now being made for
the construction of a second fuselage for use with the sailplane wings. This w i l l make it possible for the
society to represent the school at the National Soaring Meet during the summer of 1949.
The members are now eagerly attempting to l o g sufficient flights to obtain their private licenses.
They hope to accomplish this feat b y summer of 1949 to enable the society to sponsor an intercollegiate
gliding meet, a project which a l l the members are anxious to see realized.
The society has m a n y other plans for the future, plans which, it is felt, w i l l make the Lawrence Tech
Soaring Society the most active a n d progressive organization i n this area, and truly an asset to Lawrence Tech.

Top news story of the year was the account
of the acquisition of the aircraft engine testing building, which the school h a d acquired
from the W a r Surplus Board. Headlines from
the TECH NEWS for the last year would read

The Lawrence Tech Television Society consists of a group whose main interests are the technical
details of television, receiving and transmitting practice. They have built their own receivers and are
currently w o r k i n g on a high frequency transmitter. They have built a l l their own testing and checking equipment, most of which during the time w h e n materials were very hard to get and most item.?,
were made b y hand from the basic r a w materials.
Membership is not limited to Lawrence Tech a l u m n i , for students and several outsiders have joined.
The group has been i n existence slightly over 10 years and has pioneered the use of television in education. The complete presidential inauguration was received on a projection type receiver, both at Lawrence Tech and at the Lincoln High School i n V a n Dyke, Michigan. The work done is entirely voluntary on the part of members as well as the support of the organization and its equipment. Meetings
are held the first and third Thursday of each month.

The Lawrence Tech L-Book, that final and
most prized addition to every Techman's
library, is proof for their coming generations that at least Daddy was exposed to
a formal education.
The make-up and compilation of copy for
this year's annual was accomplished with
the mutual cooperation of each and every
staff member. Frank Marra as Editor with
the able assistance of an editorial staff
composed of Sam Dabich, Floyd Little,
Charles Gray, and Jack Beamish have each
contributed a proportionate share of their
time and efforts towards the common goal:
that of presenting, i n behalf of the Senior
Class, a year book worthy of the extensive activities and concerted efforts of the
students of Lawrence Tech.
The staff expresses us sincere and humble
thanks to the m a n y organizations and active groups that cooperated i n the completion of this year's book.
I n addition to the editorial staff the diligent labors of Photographic Editor L. John
Hocking, Sports Editor Walter Bazylewicz,
and Faculty Advisor Mr. Carl Einhorn, can
only be realized b y being on the staff of a
publication such as the L-Book.
We, the staff, submit this book to you,
the Graduate and Undergraduate members
of the student body, i n hope that it fulfills
its purpose; that of recording for posterity
the pleasant and fond memories coupled
with the persistent striving for knowledge
of your college days. Someday i n the far
future, m a y y o u shed a tear over the wilted
and dusty pages i n fond recollection of the
days "back at Lawrence."

�The Greeks followed the m a x i m that a "sound mind i n a sound
b o d y " was the best formula for success. This has been carried
over into the life of the Lawrence Tech student. After pursuing
full schedules during the week, the men pictured on the following
pages have found time to devote themselves to basketball, baseball, fencing, golf and other sports as representatives of the
school.
It is a natural truism that the impression g i v e n b y a college
team to the general public is often the sole impression of the
school that the public retains. I n fostering favorable impressions
and i n awakening a l i v e l y school spirit, the Blue Devil teams
have been more than successful. Their exhibitions of good sportsmanship a n d fair p l a y , w i n n i n g or losing, have enhanced the

�BASKETBALL
The 1948-49 basketball season, packed with spine-tingling thrills, found the Blue Devils of Lawrence
Tech with a season record of 15 victories as compared to 10 defeats.
The Blue Devils had played the toughest schedule in the school's history and proved itself a basketball power to be respected by large universities and state colleges.
Following the successful pattern of the 1947-48 season. Athletic Director and Coach, Don Ridler presented the Detroit sport fans as well as Lawrence Tech students with a season of big name basketball
contests along with many evenings of sparkling entertainment. Once again through the auspices of
Charles Bauervic and Arlington Motors the Tech home contests were broadcast by Al Nagler and televised over WWJ-TV.
The basketball season, in conjunction with its great entertainment program, started off with a bang
on Dec. 3, 1948, when the Blue Devils played host to Carnegie Tech. The Blue Devils outscored the
Tartars by a score of 55-44. The brilliant post-game stage show featured Louis Armstrong, Ethel Waters, Fletcher Henderson, Jack Teagarden and the Day, Dawn and Dusk Trio.
Coach Don Ridler's dream of Lawrence Tech having a big time basketball team was realized to
some extent, as 9,300 fans jammed the State Fair Coliseum to witness this game and the entertainment
program.
The Blue Devils continued their winning ways by trouncing Tri-State College of Indiana 83-43 at
Hackett Field House.
In the third game of the season Tech's rampaging Blue Devils, led by senior Carl Campbell, defeated the North Dakota State Bisons by the sound score of 65 to 52. The 6,000 fans that witnessed the

Tech victory were treated to a piano recital b y the nationally famous Jan August.
In the fourth game L.I.T. took on another state college
of the West. The South Dakota State Coyotes gave the
boys a fight to the finish but again led b y Campbell, the
Blue Devils emerged victorious b y the score of 55-51.
Buddy Moreno a n d his orchestra, and a great stage show,
were on h a n d following the game to round out the evening.
The powerful Arkansas State team invaded the Coliseum, only to have their dreams of victory snapped. The
game ended w i t h Tech on top to the tune of 64-54. The
entertainment followed with l o y a l students and fans enj o y i n g Leroy Smith a n d his Chocolate Revue.
I n the sixth game of the season Tech played South
Carolina University. Once again the Blue Devils court
formula proved effective as another victory was chalked
up—66-53.
The seventh victory came after a hard fought 45-43
encounter w i t h the University of Colorado- Walt Maconochie came up with the winning basket with five seconds
remaining i n the contest. Walt's sensational 40 foot shot
received the thunderous approval of the packed Coliseum. The evening also brought the music of Ray Garrell a n d his orchestra coupled w i t h an entertaining stage
show.
The sensational New Year's Eve Party was a huge
success as Tech downed the University of Delaware quintet, 66-48. Gene Krupa a n d his orchestra supplied the
music for 6,000 dancing people who greeted the New
Year i n a n d cheered out the old. This fabulous party
was complete with balloons, noisemakers and a l l of the
trimmings necessary for such a gala celebration.
�At this point in the season, Lawrence Tech was on
the exclusive list of unbeaten major colleges with only
twelve others having survived defeat.
On January 6 the Blue Devils took their first road
trip of the season. The squad traveled by plane and the
take off, via the American Air Lines, was a shaky one.
The entire squad felt the wind squalls all the way to
Syracuse. The results at Hartwick College were just as
sickening as Tech ran into a foul-calling spree which
saw a total of 34 personals called against the Blue Devils
who had averaged about 12 personals a game previously.
In the end Hartwick edged out Tech 73-68.
At Syracuse on January 8, Tech ran into a red hot team
which hit over 70 per cent of shots taken. The final score
indicated as much with the Syracuse Indians victorious
by a 91 to 39 margin.
The Blue Devils returned to slap down Tiffin University 84-47 and to take on one of the nation's leading
quintets in Baldwin-Wallace University. The Yellow
Jackets were red hot, having just downed the national
invitational finalist. Bowling Green University, and the
leading team of the East, namely. La Salle College. L.I.T.,
who walked on the court as the underdog, toppled the
powerful Baldwin-Wallace team in a breath taking game.
Dave Talbert pulled a "Maconochie" and popped in a
basket with five seconds remaining in the overtime period
giving Tech a stunning upset victory.
The 12th victory in 14 starts, came at a cost to John
Carroll University. The Blue Devils produced another
thriller as the score indicates. Tech 69 — John Carroll 68.
January 29 found the Blue Devils in new surroundings.
Lawrence Tech forced to vacate their home coiurt at the
Coliseum, squared off against Niagara University at the
Olympia stadium. This game furnished a thrill a second

as it ventured into a double overtime before Niagara
managed to best the Blue Devils 72-70 for Tech's third
loss in 16 starts.
Tech hit the road after this classic at Olympia. The
Blue Devils failed to change their road luck as they
bowed to St. Bonaventure 47-36 at the Memorial Auditorium in Buffalo, New York.
The Blue Devils on a Southern swing were tripped up
by Florida University 64-58 in their third overtime battle
of the season. Then the first road victory came as Tech
downed John Stetson 71-67. The next evening the Blue
Devils managed to quell their "road-trip-jinx" and defeated Florida Southern 72-58.
The fourth game of the Southern Invasion found the
Blue Devils tiring as they were downed by Tampa University 66-61 after holding the lead for 37 minutes of play.
Cumberland College of Nashville, Tennessee, was
easy prey as the Blue Devils rolled on to win 94-57 with
the entire squad figuring in the scoring.
The toll of playing ten games in seven days proved
too much as Lawrence Tech bowed to a scrapping Tennessee Tech team 64-59.
The long trip home after the Southern Swing found
the Blue Devils facing St. Bonaventure after but one day
of rest. The visitors' slow tantalizing style of play subdued the Tech cagers as they wound up on the short end
of a 58-41 score.
Led by senior Norm Hankins, Lawrence Tech recovered their vim and downed the University of Virginia
quintet 71-56.
Creighton University took the honors at the close of
the reqular season by edging Lawrence out with a close
score of 45-41.
�Lawrence Tech climaxed the season with a n invitation
to represent the State of M i c h i g a n i n the National InterCollegiate Basketball Tournament at Kansas City. This
marked the third successive year a n d the fourth time i n
six years that Lawrence Tech h a d been selected to represent the State. Tech fought a terrific battle but lost to
San Jose College of California 63-52.
The end of the 1948-49 basketball season at Lawrence
Tech left the Blue Devil fans with applause a n d praise
for the team, Coach Don Ridler a n d a successful sports

fans were provided w i t h m a n y thrills as the future Varsity displayed a fine style of basketball.
The highlights of the season were victories over Highland Park J. C., Flint J. C., Hillsdale J. V., Mich
i g a n N o r m a l J. V., a n d University of M i c h i g a n J. V.
1948-49 FROSH SEASON RECORD
�BASEBALL
Standing (left to right): Joe Knurek, Bill Bowman, Ray Mawhorter, Ray Chojnowski, Bob Ulles, Coach Bazylewicz, Jim Loepp, John Fontanesi, Bill Di Bartolomeo, and Don Jendrusch. Bottom row: Felix Polan,
Don Harlow, Edmund Wojciechowski, Lillord Cobb, Dick Sinko, Irv Cohen, and Bob Theisen.
The 1949 season brings out a team composed chiefly of veterans under the tutelage of a new coach,
Walt Bazylewicz. This is Walt's first venture into the the realm of squeeze plays, cut-off plays, batting
orders, temperamental b a l l players, and the lingering headache of starting pitchers. Spring drills have
shown that Bazylewicz is quite capable of moulding a spirited, w i n n i n g team from the ranks of returning varsity letter winners.
A brief tour of the diamond reveals the following players and their respective positions.
The pitching staff is led b y southpaw Lillord Cobb and two snappy righthanders, Jimmy, "ala Blackwell, "Loepp and Ray "boom boom," Mawhorter. For the important relief roles; Lefty, Bill Bartolomeo,
and nev/comer. Bob Ulles, round out a well-balanced staff.
,
Behind the plate the catching duties are shared b y Bill Bowman, spark-plug of the Blue Devil squad,
and Don Harlow, who is p l a y i n g his first season w i t h the varsity.
^
Around the horn we have Dick Sinko, whose freak accidents are synonymous with his first base position. A n unbeatable keystone combination composed of Bill Hane, a valuable clutch player, and Ray,
"Spider" Chojnowski, a smooth fielder and hitter. A t third base are two capable veterans. Bob Theisen
and Irving Cohen. For added strength a new addition, Don Jendrusch, serves as utility m a n about the
infield.
Looking out to the Blue Devils' outfield, we find Edmund Wojciechowski, a colorful left fielder with
a mania for vicious hitting; "Big John" Fontanesi, a h a r d hitting right fielder, and Felix "the cat" Polan.
�The 1949 season w i l l offer a real test to the Blue Devil squad as can be seen from the following
schedule:
�FENCING
Left to right: Paul Engle, Leon Yulkowski, Earl Williams, James Campoli (Coach), Dick
Yasenchak, Richard Stickley, Al Petrilli, a n d Tom Howell.
The past season revealed the fencing
team i n its strongest position since its inaugural after the war. It has been organized on a self-sustaining basis with the
team members coaching new candidates.
This eliminated the dependency of the team
on a n y one individual a n d resulted i n finer
skill on the part of a l l team members involved.
The training of freshmen helped fill the
gap left b y the loss of three varsity members
of the team through graduation.
The team completed the season with an
enviable record of six victories to one defeat.
The loss to the University of Illinois marked
the first time the electrical epee had been
used b y the Lawrence Tech team.
�The closing out of this season brings to
a close Coach Jim Campoli's collegiate
fencing competition. He organized and
coached the team during his three years of
competition and was instrumental in establishing Lawrence Tech as a fencing power.
He was ably assisted in his coaching duties
by Dick Yasenchak who will foster the team
after Campoli's graduation.
Yasenchak has achieved a perfect record
for this past season chalking up 21 individual victories without a defeat. This record
is unequalled in the entire MidWest collegiate fencing circle.
Along with a winning season of collegiate competition, Tech fencers have been
highly successful in State fencing tournaments, winning nine out of eleven contests.
INDIVIDUAL S E A S O N RECORD
Coach James Campoli
�GOLF
Standing (left to right): Harold Helms (Captain), William Kargetta, George Warner, and Bob Lund. Bottom row: Pete Gurski, J. MacDonald, and Al Tunia.
Harold Helms and George Warner, Tech's two mainstays, are this season's major hope for a good
showing. Of the first five games played this season Tech's Blue Devils can boast but one victory.
The victory over Michigan Normal marked the first time in fifteen years that Tech has come up victorious over the golfers from Ypsilanti.
Last season Helms' polished performance netted him a record of 10 victories, one defeat and one tie
game. His action in the early sessions of this season's schedule indicates this record may be bettered.
The schedule this season is set up as a challenge with Tech meeting the rougher competition in
the earlier games. Six of the scheduled eleven games remain to be played at this writing.
TEAM SCORES
L.LT.
�TENNIS
Back row (left to right): John Landis, Don Ryder, Ed Larson, and Harry Braga.
Front row (left to right): John Blossom, Ralph Emig (Coach), and Marvin Smith. Not
pictured: Adolph Swiecki, Mike Kosowan, and Ted Malpass.
This year's tennis team, under the expert tutelage of Coach Ralph Emig, jumped into their schedule
by capturing victories in four of the first five games scheduled. With veteran Blue Devil court-masters
as John Blossom, Harry Braga, Don Ryder, and Marvin Smith returning and talented additions like John
Landis and Adolph Swiecki, Tech's racketeers have shown victories over Ferris, Hillsdale, Canisius,
and Niagara.
With five of the season's ten scheduled games played at this writing the Blue Devil's only threat to
a victorious season lies in the match with Calvin, who have handed Tech their only defeat to date.
Veteran John Blossom entered this season showing better court action and will probably complete
the season undefeated. Harry Braga's fine form has made him a consistently unbeatable mainstay of
the squad. This season also showed Don Ryder as the most improved player on the squad.
Top doubles combination for the season were composed of: Blossom and Smith; Braga and Ryder;
and Landis and Swiecki.
�RIFLE TEAM
Standing: (left to right): Jim Whately (Coach), Lew Alward, Ray Jupp, Bob Dean, Lee Brooke,
and Carl Thompson. Bottom row (left to right): Ray Keranen, Ralph Wilhelm, Jim Cumming
(Captain), Tom Howell, Richard Macan, a n d Richard McBrien. Not pictured: William Finlayson.
Tech's Rifle Team completed this year's season of rough competition w i t h a season record of nine
wins and five losses i n their postal matches while losing the three scheduled shoulder-to-shoulder
matches.
This season's team showed victories over Iowa State, University of Dayton, Harvard, University of
Wisconsin, Cornell, Louisiana State, a n d University of Alaska. The three shoulder-to-shoulder matches,
which were a l l played a w a y , were lost to Ohio State University, M i c h i g a n State, a n d University of
Michigan.
The five high men for the season who w i l l receive varsity letters are Lee Brooke, Jim Cumming,
Ralph Wilhelm, Bob Dean, a n d Tom Howell.
Team scores for the postal matches are compiled b y running off a practice elimination of the members of the Rifle Club. From the resulting scores the ten competing members are chosen. Of these ten
men the five best scores are chosen for competition i n the match.

�DEDICATION
"There are, generally speaking, two kinds of students and, therefore, eventually, graduates; on the
one hand, those who do just enough to get by, and, on the other hand, those who do more than the
minimum required".
Earl W. Pellerin, architect, and head of the architectural engineering department since the founding
of Lawrence Institute of Technology in 1932, unceasingly expounds to students the above axiom.
Certainly, in his own life, Mr. Pellerin early realized the consequence of that axiom.
His extensive
studies and travels in the interest of his selected profession; his wonderful execution of ecclesiastical,
residential, educational, and commercial buildings; his awards in architectural competitions; his many
varied other activities and ofFicerships of organizations, all are evidence of a continuous, untiring effort
to "do more than the minimum required".
But to those of us who are close to Mr. Pellerin, we are mostly impressed by his wanting to do his best
for the student.
Long, late hours are kept in the classrooms, at the meetings of the architectural
groups, in creating projects for the school, and in helping students solve their varied difficulties.
You have shown us, the Class of 1953, for these several years the merits of working dexterously for
good things, Mr. Pellerin. You have taught us the rewards that con be ours for "doing more than the
minimum required".
As we prepare to leave our beloved Lawrence Tech, we see the challenge offered by the world. Those
of us who possess what you teach will respond, meet the challenge, and do our best for a better world.
In appreciation for your great efforts and accomplishments in educating us, we, the graduating class
of 1953 humbly dedicate this yearbook to you, a great educator, a great architect, and a great man.
Earl W. Pellerin.

However, what really has transpired in these
What changes have been experienced?
A poem by Rudyard Kipling, entitled IF, enumerates some of the prerequisites to becoming a mature individual.
Each of these is a hurdle that must be surmounted by all. To instill these require-
ments into their students is the aspiration of all institutions of higher learning.
Lawrence Tech has realized this aspiration!
Our short stay here has shown us how to meet our
challenges unflinchingly and with determination to see them through. What was our gain? Simply
this; we have become men and can confidently say, "Ours is the Earth and all that is in it".

IF
If you can keep your head when all about you
are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
but make allowance for their doubting, too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting.
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies.
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
and yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream, and not make dreams your master;
If you can think, and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet triumph and disaster
and treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truths you've spoken
twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools.
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
and stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools;
If you can talk to crowds and keep your virtue,
or walk with kings—nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
with sixty second's worth of distance run—
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
and—which is more—you'll be a Man, my Son!
Rudyard Kipling
�Lawrence Tech is now entering the third decade of its existence. This is true because a courageous man of high ideals realized that a school was needed which would
teach not only the theoretical aspects of engineering but would give the student an
opportunity to see the practical side of this wide and essential field. During these
twenty-one years since its founding, the"phrase "Theory and Practice" has become a
byword of Lawrence Institute of Technology.
The man was Russell Ellsworth Lawrence. The year was 1932, the depth of the
economic depression. Determination and extreme belief in his convictions no doubt
motivated this man to found a school when almost all economic and educational
activity was dormant. Surrounded by a group of men whose ideas paralleled his.
Dean Lawrence embarked on the long road of recognition and renown.
The early years were extremely difficult. Hours were long and compensation small
If at all forthcoming. Gradually, as the need for this type of institution was realized,
enrollment took an upward swing. New courses were offered, the faculty was increased, and new and better laboratory facilities were made available.
Three short years after the founding, in 1935, Russell E. Lawrence was suddenly
stricken and passed on. The loss was keenly felt but his job was finished; the future of
Lawrence Tech had been assured.
Very few of the graduates of this institution have had the honor of knowing Dean
Lawrence personally, but all have been profoundly influenced by his ideals and
philosophy. His is a lasting monument; the Lawrence Institute of Technology.

���A number of years have gone by since a group of students v/ere adorned
with the distinguishing beanie of a Freshman at Lawrence Institute of Technology.
Now a portion of this original group are about to become Bachelors of Science in various fields.
The mortality rate of this class has been unusually high. This was probably
due in part to the unsettled world situation and the selective service. Some
succumbed to the lure of high wages of industry; still others found the
curriculum too difficult. At any rate, many who started did not finish.
Much credit is due those who make up the Class of '53, therefore, the following section is devoted as a standing monument to their achievements.
These men are members of a select group chosen by the age old method
devised by nature; the survival of the fittest.
Humanity will take note of
these men in the future for their place in the world will be a noted one.

FIRST GRADUATING CLASS
OF THE
INDUSTRIAL TECHNICAL INSTITUTE
The Technical Institute was founded three years a g o to meet the ever increasing demand for technically trained personnel.
The programs offered closely parallel the engineering college curricula but more emphasis is placed on
applied and practical, rather than theoretical study.
The technician's job is a vocation requiring skillful application of a high degree of specialized knowledge together
with a broad understanding of operational procedures.
It requires sound judgment under diverse and sometimes
adverse situations and frequently leads to supervisory positions.
The Technical Institute offers the following courses and the graduates are a w a r d e d a diploma of an Associate Engineer in these fields: Automotive Technology, Building Construction Technology, Electrical and Electronic Tech.,
Industrial Supervision Tech., Mechanical Tech., Production Tool Design Tech., and Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Technology.
On the following pages are pictured the men who successfully completed the Institute's curriculum.
They comprise
the first graduating class of ITI and on their shoulders lies the task of establishing a good reputation for their alma
mater.
In future years, the Technical Institute will no d o u b t be as well known in its field as Lawrence Tech is in engi-
neering circles.

�STRICTLY CANDID
When this book is picked up in years to come and the graduate looks at
the portraits of the professors in the various departments, he will in all
probability remember these men only as the calculus, the mechanisms, or
the thermo prof he had as a senior. Most of the distinctive mannerisms,
witticisms, and facial expressions that make the difFerence between the
man in the portrait and the very definite personality this man is will be
forgotten.
The purpose of this feature is to capture and present the expressions and
actions of some of these men as seen through the eyes of a student.
The yearbook staff, in printing this feature, hopes to repay these men in
some measure for the small portion of their personality that leaves with
each graduate. We hope to do this by rekindling their memories in the
mind and heart of each graduate that opens this book.

����SENIOR STAG
The Senior Stag is the last get-together of the Seniors before each
goes his way after graduation. A
dinner, entertainment by instructors, and an evening of beer and
cards usually makes up the program.
Arrangements for the Stag were
made this year by Chairman Jerry
Roll and President Gerry Larson.
Attendance was heavy and an enjoyable evening was spent by all.
With the help of the pictures on
the following pages it is hoped
that the '53 Senior Stag will long
be remembered.
Mr. Erneman and Mr. Pellerin congratulated the graduates on their
accomplishment.
�Mr. Rackway and "Doc" Graeffe
entertained with some of their very
humorous stories.
���COLLEGE DAZE
The names of Gropp, Wasek, and Lewis have become quite familiar at LIT. Cartoons
that these men so proficiently drew have appeared in the Tech News at regular intervals
and have added much to the general good feeling around the campus. In this respect
we, the students, have been rather fortunate.
So that some of these gems of college life would not be lost, the L-Book staff made
use of the Tech News morgue and picked out the best cartoons that were printed during
the years of our undergraduate work. They are presented on these three pages to
remind thfe owner of this book of his gay college days.
�"No, Penelope, I MUST do my homework"
"Of all the fools! I had 8 7 % until I took it back to
Prof. Menzel to check a correction!"
"Beely." "Here!" "Boswell." "Here!" "Colder."
"Here!" "Chipsom." "Here!" "Drane." "Here!"
"Humphrey." 'Here!"
"Hey, Pinetop! Wonder where Bagby goes during
our tests? Not that I mind, of course . . .!"
"Wait a minute, will ya!! Prof. Menzel wants these
drawings in by tomorrow!"
�"There, there, there . . . the hell with Thermodynamics"
"The soup's cold, Bentley! You want a hamburger instead?'

As a result, there is no want for

The J-Prom is another dance that
Founder's Day is always a big afFair whether it
takes the form of an open house or an all school picnic.
Sports tournaments
sponsored by the Athletic Department are eagerly awaited and the school
band offers an interesting diversion from study for musical students.
Among the more technical lines the professional societies are numbered.
SAE, SAM, CES, and ACS with their technical and dinner meetings offer
many chances for social contact.
In this group are also found the "EE"
Club, Soaring Society, the Math Club, and the Architectural Club.
For students that are politically inclined, the student council and class officer
groups are made to order.
These organizations make up the student
government.
Not to be forgotten as a dominant source of social activity are the fraternities.
Since there are five such organizations on campus, they warrant a
section of their own which will be found further in this annual.
�JUNIOR PROM
According to tradition, the biggest affair of the school year
at Lawrence Tech is the J-Prom. In keeping with this precedent, the Junior Class of '53 outdid themselves in putting over the best J-Prom anyone could remember.
It was held at the beautiful Latin Quarter and the
swing and sway was supplied by Don Bari and
Orchestra.
A surprisingly large attendance made the
Prom a lively one indeed and a date
hard to forget. During the intermission
President Lawrence presented Lambda lota Tau and Alumni Achievement awards to deserving men.
To the men at the helm of
the Junior Class, now
Seniors, Lawrence Tech
can say, "A good
job well done."

As with all affairs of this type, much preliminary work must be done in order to insure success. Advertising,
tickets, and favors had to be prepared. A good band and a nice location were of prime importance.
Credits for these jobs go to the following men of the J-Prom Committee: Gordon Gerlitz and Jerry Roll,
Publicity; Norm Hallman and Wallace Hansen, Tickets; Robert Harrison and Stan Kukawka, Favors; and Stan Kedzior, Band.

large sign r e a d i n g " W e l c o m e General M a c A r t h u r " .
��GOV. WILLIAMS SPEAKS
At the June 1952 commencement exercises the principal speaker was the Governor of the State of
Michigan, G. Mennen Williams. His interesting talk was accepted with enthusiasm by the graduates as
well as by the relatives and friends present.
Just before President E. G. Lawrence conferred degrees on the graduating class, he presented the
Governor with the mantle of an Honorary Doctor of Humanities.
�Founder's Day Picnic
Founder's Day chairman, Jerry Roll, made himself
very popular by distributing the food and drinks.
Observance of Founder's Day took on a different form this
year. Instead of the usual display type open house affair, a
student and faculty picnic idea was realized. Bloomer State
Park was the chosen site.
The baseball diamonds were in continuous use as interfraternity and interclass Softball tourneys were staged.
As an added incentive for exceptional play, a new Softball was
offered for each home run scored.
A dismal day weather wise affected attendance slightly but
did not dampen the spirits of those present.

FRESHMAN INITIATION
The years of 1952 and '53 saw a revival of a custom that became dormant during
the years when ex-GI's were a predominant element in the school enrollment. This
custom is the traditional "Frosh" Initiation.
With an unusually active Sophomore Class as the administrators, Lawrence Tech
witnessed the most hilarious initiation of many a year.
This fall the Frosh were identified by certain distinguishing marks. They wore the
time-honored beany, a name card, and had their right pant leg rolled up to the knee.
Their duties were to show respect to the upperclassmen, to carry matches for cigarettes,
and to have a supply of nickels for the coke and candy machines.
On Friday of Frosh Hell Week a Kangaroo Court convened to deal with breaches
of the Sophomore Law. Each accused Frosh was defended by one of his peers and
prosecuted by a Sophomore. If the verdict of the jury was "Guilty", the defense
attorney shared in the sentence of the Frosh defendant, this being his punishment for
not presenting a convincing case.
The sentences meted out by the court and the results thereof can be seen in the
pictures on the following pages.

�HOMECOMING
AND
BUILDING FUND DRIVE
This year Lawrence Tech's Homecoming was combined with the building fund program. This fund raising drive, under the direction of Don
Ridler, was started several weeks before in an effort to raise $25,000
for the new school. A raffle was the means chosen to raise this amount
and the drive was to be culminated on Homecoming night. So a basketball game, dance and raffle drawing were on the agenda for this event.
First on the program was Lawrence Tech vs. Hamline, a fast moving
game ending in victory for the Blue Devils by a score of 74 to 56. This
victory was followed by dancing to Ralph Marteri's orchestra and intermission entertainment by the Ravens, a well known quartet.
At midnight, all gathered around the bandstand as Mr. C. M. Bauervic,
of Arlington Motors, drew the lucky tickets that made 25 winners very
happy.
Displays were put up by the active organizations on campus for the
benefit of the alumni and others present. Much special efFort was put
forth which proved very rewarding since the affair was a huge success
and the anticipated amount for the building fund was exceeded.
�PRE-DRIVE RALLY
The day before the building fund drive started a
series of rallies was held in the cafeteria to acquaint
the students with the facts and to get them into a
selling spirit.
Some spoke, many listened. Here is some of what
was said. "Pops" Fahey—"Now I'll tell you how to
sell these raffle tickets; hit them in groups." "Doc"
Graeffe—"I'll flunk any student who doesn't sell at
least one book." Jerry Roll—"We need this new
school so get out and push." Don Ridler—"Let's all
get behind this one hundred percent." Hal Haupt—
"Someday you'll be proud to point and say, that's
our new school—the big one over there."

���Dance
Band
The fall of 1952 saw the resumption of an activity that was
discontinued during the last W o r l d W a r along with most of
Lawrence Tech's extra curricular activities. The reorganization
was the idea of E. D. Hancock, an EE department professor. He
put out a call for musically inclined students and the result was
the formation of an easy to listen to dance bond.
The pictures shown on these pages were taken during rehearsals in the student lounge. Regretfully, a sound track cannot be included, however, these men promise to be a familiar
sight a t many of Tech's dances.
BANDMASTER E. D. HANCOCK
Strains of well known dance tunes echoed through the halls when the full band sat in rehearsal.
��The Student Council officers are Jack Korb, corresponding secretary. Jack Nicholson,
recording secretary, Jerry Roll, president, George Critenden, vice-president, Louis
Weberman, judicial chairman, and not pictured is Ernest Kostyo, treasurer.
STUDENT COUNCIL
Student government at Lawrence Tech is evidenced by the working of the Student
Council. The bimonthly meetings serve as a sounding board for student and organizational problems. During the past school year the Council has been headed by
President Jerry Roll.
Heated discussions are the rule rather than the exception at these meetings. However, in a true democratic spirit, minority yields to majority and in harmony the work
is carried on.
Any student organization must have a close liaison with the Administration to be
successful. The 1952-53 Council has chosen Mr. Hurst Wulf, of the Mathematics Department, as the Faculty Advisor. Mr. Wulf's comments and suggestions hove proven
invaluable when important issues had to be ruled on.
The committee chairmen are Hal Haupt,
social, Larry Kiselas, election, Donald McKinley, activity awards and election, Dick
Marshall, Founders Day, and Jerry Larson,
Lambda lota Tau.
�. . whereupon Jerry introduced the other new officers.
At the annual Student Council Banquet, retiring President Robert Parker passed the gavel
and his congratulations to incoming President
Jerry Roll . . .
Mr. Lawrence said a few words . . .
while the members and guests listened attentively.
After the formalities, an evening of cards
and beer was enjoyed by all present.
�L-BOOK
The purpose of an annual is to record the activities and
events of a certain year pictorially. The 1953 L-Book
staff decided that the best way to achieve this goal was
through the printing of an extra large book with many
large and comprehensive pictures and a minimum of copy.
It is our opinion that this "fruit of our labors" has served
its intended purpose quite well. However, you, the reader,
are the final judge.
Because of the ability of the men on the staff few were
needed. Art work the cover design was done by Bill Mullaly; the financial end was handled by George Hanovich. Bob Harrison and John Turchan did most of the layout in their respective sections and pics were supplied by
Stan Kukawka and his Speed Graphic. Planning and layout was done by mutual assent, and thus the 1953 L-Book
came to be.

CLUB
On the 27th of May 1952, twenty-four students and three
faculty members met in the Student Lounge to ratify and
sign the Constitution of the Math Club. This event culminated five months of organization and planning under
the chairmanship of Richard Marshall and the guidance of
Professors Bagby, Nace, and Haire.
The organization was founded for two purposes: to provide the means for carrying the study of mathematics
further than the regular curricular program; and to promote a greater interest in mathematics throughout the
school.
The activities of the past year have consisted of monthly
meetings highlighted by reports given by student members
and speeches given by members of Lawrence Tech's
faculty. The meetings have all been quite interesting and
the members have gained much knowledge about the history of mathematics and about those subjects of mathematics that are covered only slightly in the college texts.
The Math Club officers are Nathaniel Carr, vice-president, and
Richard Marshall, president. Mr. H. Nace acts
as the Faculty Advisor.
In the future the Math Club intends to bring in guest
speakers from other colleges and from industry, and to
obtain motion pictures for school-wide meetings.
Also
slated for the future is an award program for graduating
seniors who have been outstanding in their work in mathematics during their college career.
�SOCIETY FOR THE
ADVANCEMENT OF
MANAGEMENT
Today, students; tomorrow, leaders in industry. This prospective outlook
applies to all Lawrence Tech students. The Society for the Advancement of
Management constantly strives toward the fulfillment of this goal.
The LIT student chapter of S. A. M. was founded four years ago and since its
inception has helped spread the benefiis of scientific management.
This year in particular, students have ben attending meetings held by the
Detroit Chapter of S. A. M. at the Rackham Memorial Building. The topics
under discussion included union activities, labor relations, personnel problems,
and various phases of industrial engineering.
The S. A. M. chapter at Lawrence Tech is another example of the broad
background available through "Theory and Practice".
S.A.M. ofFicers are night school Vice-president Jesse Filak, Secretary Bill
Walters, President Ernie Kostyo, Treasurer Donald Payne, and day school Vice president, Wallace Hansen.
SOARING SOCIETY
Earl last fall six LIT students undertook the project of reorganizing the Soaring Society. With the help and counseling of
Professor G. P. Martin, the Society advisor, materials were obtained and the construction of the fuselage was begun.
Lawrence Tech has been known throughout the past years for
its aeronautical achievements. These included the building of
several sailplanes and the racing plane, "Chappy". The members of the new Soaring Society are determined to live up to the
noteworthy precedent that has been set.
Along with being a hard working group the members of the
Soaring Society are also quite philosophical. They have chosen
for their motto the old and truthful saying, "Keep thou thy flying
speed lest the earth come up and smite thee."
Gathered around the framework of their sailplane are the
Soaring Society ofFicers. They are Vice-chairman Gerald Larson,
Chairman Kenneth Kuhn, Recording Secretary James Lepley,
Treasurer Richard Gray, Secretary Harold DeMink, and Membership Chairman Kent DuPont.
�SOCIETY OF
AUTOMOTIVE
ENGINEERS
The Student Group of the Society of Automotive Engineers is by far t
largest group of its kind on campus. To odd to this distinction, it is als
recognized as the second largest Student Group of the SAE in the natioi
This organization was founded in 1938 and under the able direction oj
the Faculty Advisor, Dr. Gail Brewington, has accomplished much.
Activities of the group include field trips, guest speakers from industry
and joint meetings with the senior chapter. In these classifications wen
included a trip to the Ferguson Tractor Plant, a speaker on jet engine
from Chrysler, and a dinner-meeting at the Ford Motor Co. In the fall o
1952 the Senior Chapter sponsored a model engine contest. The problen
was to rebuild a two-cycle mode! engine for maximum rpm. The engira
entered by the LIT group placed fourth in a field of six.
SAE officers ore: Secretary Roger Brown, Chairman Howard Lang,
Treasurer George Dzenzel, and Assistant Chairman
Dave Reichard.
��It would seem that no other college activities bring out the school spirit and
enthusiasm in a student as much as varsity sports.
The keen spirit of
amateur competition transplants the spectator into the uniformed figures on
the playing area and so inspired the team often tastes the sweet fruit of
victory.
At Lawrence Tech basketball is king of all the varsity sports.
The Blue
Devils are well known throughout the nation and have held many enviable
season records.
Fencing and Tennis share the second place honors.
The LIT swordsmen
held the State Championship in past years and fared quite well this past
season.
The tennis team promises a full season with a crew of veteran
netters taking to the courts.
As Lawrence Tech grows in size new varsity sports will no doubt be added.
Following the example of the netters, fencers, and cagers, these new athletes will assuredly bring more honor to "Dear o l ' LIT".
Athletic Director Don Ridler looks over the basketball schedule with
Blue Devil Coach Walt "Scottie" Maconochie while
Assistant Coach Sam Smith looks on.

����TENNIS TEAM
Among the active varsity sports at LIT is numbered the Tennis Team, or as
they are more commonly called, the Racketeers.
The Tennis Team v/os reorganized several years ago by Ralph Emig, an
active participant of the game during his student days at Lav/rence Tech. Up
until 1952, Mr. Emig also coached the team and attained the enviable record of
45 wins and 33 losses.
Last year the job of coach and captain was given to John Dean, Mr. Emig
being on leave. With only two men left from the previous squad, John went
to work and whipped up a noteworthy team. Some of the better known netters
these Tech men we;e matched against this season were Adrian, Tri State,
Bowling Green, and Ohio Northern.
An experienced team will take to the courts next season since all but one
man will return. Because of this an overwhelming balance for LIT is expected
in the win and loss column.

Team members were John Dean, John Grindrod, Ernie Kostyo, Tom Solaka,

INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL
The Interfraternity Council is composed of two representatives from each fraternity
and was organized to deal with mutual fraternity problems. The main function of the
IFC is to establish rules and dates for rushing, pledge mixers, and pledging.
Chairmanship of the council rotates annually and during the last school year Henry
Lybeck of Alpha Gamma Upsilon served in this capacity. Jim Lepley of Kappa Sigma
Kappa served as Secretary.
An interfraternity picnic was the big social event sponsored by the IFC this last year.
Camp Dearborn was the chosen site and the excellent sport and picnic facilities were
put to good use by fraternity members, their families, and friends. Some of the scenes
of this affair were captured on film and appear on the following pages.
In conjunction with the fund raising program for the new school the IFC put up a
trophy for the fraternity that raised the most money through the sales of rafFle and dance
tickets. This trophy was presented to Kappa Phi Sigma by Chairman Henry Lybeck on
the night of February 14th. The KPS members edged out Kappa Sigma Kappa by only
a small margin and Rho Delta Phi placed a close third. Without a doubt, the part the
fraternities of Lawrence Tech played in the Building Fund Drive did much to make the
drive a success and bring the new campus closer to reality.
LAMBDA
IOTA
TAU
The Lambda lota Tau Honor A w a r d was instituted by Dean
Russell Lawrence in 1934, only two years after he founded
Lawrence Tech. These awards have been made annually
to deserving men since that time and have become the
most coveted of all keys.
Students who stand out in academic work are not too unusual, nor are those who lead in campus organizations. The
unusual is achieved when students can combine both successfuly. It was the contention of Dean Lawrence that this
latter group should have recognition. This feature of combining scholarship with extra-curricular activity makes the
Lambda lota Tau Honor Fraternity unique among honor organizations.
Looking over a candidate's qualifications are Lambda lota Tau committee members
Wallace Hansen, Chairman Gerald Larson, and Jack Nicholson.

�ALPHA
GAMMA
UPSILON
In 1933, with the help of Mr. Kenneth Mead, head of the Physics Department at Lawrence Tech, the Epsilon chapter
of Alpha Gamma Upsilon was founded. Epsilon grew rapidly in size and in September of 1934 a fraternity room
was built on the 4th floor. In the summer of 1937 a house was purchased in Highland Park and AGU became the
first fraternity on campus to own a house. In 1942, however the obligations concerning the chapter house became
too great. The house was sold and Epsilon again reverted to the 4th floor room for meetings.
Epsilon made the first step in the formation of an Inter-fraternity Council in March of 1940. A letter was sent to
each fraternity on the campus and a meeting was held at the Epsilon house. In May of that year, the constitution
was passed and the IFC became an official organization of LIT largely through the efforts of AGU.
On the second evening in May the members and alumni from eleven Alpha Gamma Upsilon chapters were the guests
of Epsilon for the climax to the 1952 social season—the twenty-seventh National Convention. .The kickoff for this
three day event at the Tuller Hotel was a tremendous stag party. The following morning the team from Epsilon
emerged victorious from the fraternity wide bowling tournament. That evening at the Ball in the Arabian Room,
Jerry Dauth of lota chapter reigned as queen over a court of nine other chapter sweethearts. At the banquet on the
third day, Epsilon was the recipient of the hard earned bowling trophy.
The AGU officers are House Counselor Carl Ortolf, President Ralph Klann, Pledgemaster
Vince Miller, Rec. Secretary Norman Miller, Corr. Secretary Edward Keagy, V-President
David Stack, Treasurer Richard Brehmer, House Manager Albert O'Connor, and Sgt.
at Arms James Stewart.

�KAPPA
PHI
SIGMA
Kappa Phi Sigma is the youngest fraternity on the campus. Since its inception in January 1951, Kappa Phi Sigma
has grown to more than four times its original size. This development is due to the warm feelings of sincerity and
congeniality that is shared by all of the brothers. The main functions of Kappa Phi Sigma are to provide the bonds
of true brotherhood for men who desire to be more than "just friends", and to provide a wholesome extra-curricular
program.
in the field of campus activity. Kappa Phi Sigma has become outstanding. The fraternity was awarded the RED
CROSS Blood Drive Trophy and the Intramural Basketball Trophy in two school-wide competitions. In other phases
of campus life, Kappa Phi's have been elected to positions of honor and leadership.
The past year has seen Kappa Phi Sigma conduct two very successful pledge sessions, and maintain a full social calendar. The highlights of the social season have been—the annual Halloween Party, New Year's party, two Barbeques
and two Dinner Dances held at Tassie Tavern.
We, of the Kappa Phi Sigma, ore especially proud of maintaining the association of our alumni brothers. W e find
the renewal of brotherhood at social events very stimulating.
With the coming of commencement. Kappa Phi Sigma will lose many of its active members. To these men, we bid
farewell, and may your future hold in reality that which is in your dreams today.
The KPS officers are Treasurer Don McKinley, Corr. Secretary Bill Sheppard, V-President Rudy Gengenbach, Social Chairman Gil Mack, Faculty Advisor William Burke, President Dick Marshall, Rec. Secretary John Yanik, and Chaplain Jerry Roll.

DELTA
PHI
"To develop a high standard of morals and character, encourage scholarship, and develop honor and loyalty among the students
of the Alma Mater" is the purpose of Rho Delta Phi Fraternity.
Rho Delta Phi was chartered at Lawrence Tech and incorporated under the laws of the State of Michigan in March of 1939. Since
that time it has expanded into three active chapters. Alpha representing night school. Beta representing day school, and Alpha
Omega, boasting a membership of over 200, representing the alumni. A Supreme Council, composed of representatives of all
chapters. Is the coordinating body of the fraternity.
Activities of RDP ore many and varied. The fall pledge season of Beta began with a pledge mixer at the home of Bob Harrison.
Alpha held theirs at the home of Harold Veitch. The following week fourteen "Brats" embarked on the strenuous rood to membership. During this period a hayride-weiner roost was held. Alpha sponsored a dinner-dance, and Alpha Omega held a Stag Party.
All pledges survived the informal initiation and were present at the Presentation Dinner at Huyler's L'Aiglon to receive their pins
and certificates. With the subservience of pledgeship over, the new members challenged the old members to a bosktboll game
and in retaliation for the discomforts endured beat them decisively.
Nine men began wearing the tie and pledge pin of Rho Delta Phi Fraternity after the spring pledge mixer held at the home of Rod
Sambrook. Besides the usual ceremonies, the spring schedule will include a golf meet at Belle Isle at which these pledges will serve
as caddies. This pledge season will be climaxed with the annual Presentation Dinner-Dance.
Beta chapter officers are President Richard Mitchell, Vice-president James Butera, Secretary Stan Kukawka, and Treasurer Bill Mullaly.
�The Alpha chapter officers are Treasurer Ed Priebe, Corresponding Secretary
Bob Priebe, President Harold Veitch, and Vice-President George Gravilla.
Not pictured is Recording Secretary Robert Stuart.
����The Homecoming exhibit this year was the idea of Bob Harrison.
Bill Mullaly drew up the plans and engineered the project. The whole
membership pitched in on the construction and the result was the best
looking exhibit at Homecoming. The "Future" section featured the
proposed floor plan and perspective of the Rho Delta Phi fraternity
House. This was the work and design of Don Schaening.
��Other activities included intramural as well as intrafraternity
basketball and stag parties.
