"With a Record Load"
subject: World War, 1939-1945; Clippings (Books, newspapers, etc.); United States. Navy
description: In the top corner of the clipping, it reads "With a Record Load." Below that is the byline, "Flying Boat Mars Hops 4375 Nonstop Miles Over Water, Maryland to Natal, Brazil." Below that is a banner image of a large aircraft with what appears to be a crowd of people below its wings. The picture is captioned, "The giant Mars, with men clustered like dwarfs atop and beneath her wing." In two columns of text reads the story: "Flying nonstop from Patuxent River, Md., 4375 miles to Natal, Brazil, the Navy's huge new flying boat Mars has surpassed all existing records for overwater flight and air cargo transportation, Secretary Frank Knox announced yesterday. Knox said the performance of the gigantic craft was so good it is likely that the Navy will order others to be buit to help meet the ever-increasing need for fast cargo service. In addition to the long overwater hop to Natal, the Mars set new records for air cargo--35,000 pounds---and for the heaviest load ever lifted by a plane--148,500 pounds gross at takeoff from Patuxent River. On the flight to Natal, which the Navy said took 28 hours and 25 minutes, the Mars carried 13,000 pounds of Chirstmas mail for the armed forces. From Natal the more than half a million letters were carried to the Mediterranean war fronts in smaller cargo planes. The Mars returned to Belem, Brazil, with 23,000 pounds of cargo; flew from Belem to Port of Spain; Trinidad, with 35,000 pounds, and from Port of Spain to Bermuda with 27,400 pounds. The cargo included war materials labeled 'Priority A-1,' which, the Navy said, 'rides ahead of admirals.' It traveled at an average speed of 161 miles an hour. The Navy said the speed was far from maximum because minimum engine power was used to conserve the power plants, which are still experimental."

Comdr. William E. Coney. His first and second pilots were Lieuts. Joseph A. Baker and Kenneth W. Winsor. Lieut. (j.g.) Leon Shloss, USNR, of Washington, was security and liaison officer. The plane's four Wright Cyclone engines deliver 2200 horse power each. It has a wing-span of 200 feet. The two-deck hull, which is 117 feet long, has the capacity of a 15-room house. It was built by the Glenn L. Martin Co. of Baltimore and accepted by the Navy on a few days before its historic flight."

"A Legend of Mt Tom"
subject: Chicopee (Mass.); Mount Tom (Mass.); Springfield (Mass.)--Colonization; King Philip's War, 1675-1676--Fiction
description: A 19-leaf booklet, hand-bound with (possibly brass) pronged fasteners (removed for digitization. The booklet is a typed poem, with annotations and corrections in pencil and in ink, as well as one small insert with a note. The covers are the same paper as the inner leaves, and the title is hand-written in ink. The back cover is blank, but a brief note written in ink on the last page dates the poem to June 30, 1905. While the poem refers to a real moment during King Philip's War (the siege of Springfield, MA, in 1675, everything else mentioned is a fictionalized narrative and utilizes racialized tropes and language. [Interestingly, it references a colonist named Patience Worth; while there is no record of her being real, in the 1910s there was a sensation surrounding a woman who claimed to be in contact with a (deceased) Patience Worth via a ouija board, through which Patience dictated novels and poetry.] *Processing note: the insides of both covers are deliberately blank; we refrained from scanning the blank reverse of inner pages to reduce the file size.

Chicopee Library at Market Square, circa 1913
subject: Chicopee (Mass.); Chicopee Public Library
description: A black and white photograph of the "old" Chicopee Library at Market Square. As described by the MA Historical Commission: "Located on a rectangular lot adjoining the City Hall, and facing Market Square, the Chicopee Public Library is a Classical Revival building constructed of red pressed brick with trimmings of white granite. It rises two levels from a rusticated stone basement to a low hip roof which is covered with sheet copper. Its main facade is dominated by a recessed, ionic columned (in antis) and pedimented entrance. A broad flight of stone stairs leads to the entrance, which in turn is flanked by tall, fully enframed and console bracketed, tripartite windows. Its corners are accented with large quoins and it is encircled by heavy, classicized stone cornice." There is a man standing on the steps who appears to be a workman, wearing a long white garment that suggests he is a painter. There is a car parked in front of the building, and a dirt pile that suggests this was taken during construction.

Scrapbook of the Operation Little Vittles Committee
subject: Berlin Airlift and Operation Little Vittles
description: Operation Little Vittles was a goodwill mission to drop candy to German children during the Berlin Airlift of 1948-1949 and was headquartered in Chicopee, Massachusetts. This scrapbook is a record of the Operation Little Vittles Committee and provides information about the group of volunteers who were involved. The scrapbook contains official minutes of their meetings, the committee’s constitution and rules of operation, newspaper clippings, handwritten letters in German from children who received candy during the drops and a few photographs. The Little Vittles committee was responsible for coordinating and gathering candy and handkerchiefs to be delivered to Westover Air Force Base. From there the supplies were brought to Germany to be dropped to children in West Berlin. Operation Little Vittles came out of the Berlin Airlift, an operation by the United States and England that brought food to the people of West Berlin during the Soviet Blockade of Germany. Little Vittles was started by Air Force Pilot Gail S. Halvorsen after he handed out candy to a group of children and saw their reaction to his gesture. On the next flight he dropped candy tied to handkerchief parachutes. This grew to regular drops of candy by Halvorsen and his crew. As news spread of the operation in the United States the Little Vittles Committee was formed to handle the volume of candy and handkerchief donations as well as bring the supplies to the air force base in Chicopee.

Chicopee City League Baseball Scrapbook 2
subject: Chicopee; Baseball; Chicopee City League; Sports;
description: The Chicopee City League Scrapbook Two is a collection of newspaper clippings from the local newspapers dedicated to the 1950 through the 1952 Chicopee City Baseball League seasons. The adult city league existed in Chicopee from the 1930s through the 1950s and drew crowds in the thousands. The 1950 season consisted of five teams: the Fairview Boys Club, the Chicopee Falls Dodgers, the Chicopee Falls Tigers, the Nativity Athletic Club, the Sandy Hill Vets (they dropped out half-way through the season) and the Colonels Athletic Club. The 1951 season was marked by turmoil and only two teams played each other on Sundays, the Tigers and the Dodgers. At the end of the 1951 season four teams, the Tigers, the Dodgers, the Colonels and the Palais D’Or agreed to have a playoff series t determine the champion of Chicopee. Palais D’Or won the series. The 1952 season consisted of four teams, the Chicopee Falls Dodgers, the Chicopee Falls Tigers, the Palais D’Or Athletic Club and the Colonels Athletic Club. The city league was originally an adult league, but teenage players were allowed in the 1952 when too many players joined the armed services and the older players wanted to play in the “semi-pro” Tri-County League. The articles are clipped and pasted into the pages of the book, often with more than one article on a page. There are some dates with the articles at the beginning of the book. The articles are arranged in chronological order from the initial planning meetings to the end of the regular season and through the playoffs of each season. The statistics from several games and the rosters of the teams are also clipped and pasted among the articles.

description: Forty-Sixth Regiment of Infantry-Mass. Vols. Chronology This regiment was raised in obedience to a call for 300,000 additional troops for service during a period of none months. The original order of President Lincoln, dated August 4th 1862, required that this force should be raised by a draft; but by the patriotism and liberality of the people, the quota of the State of Massachusetts was filled without resorting to that expedient. The town of Chicopee took early measures to obtain this required number of volunteers, and in public town meeting voted to pay a bounty of $100 to each man who should enlist to fill up the quota. Enlistments were promptly and rapidly made, and in a short time the town furnished one hundred and nineteen men for nine months service. One hundred and five of these were enrolled in the 46th Regiment of Infantry’ their names are appended, together with the letters of their respective companies:_ David E. Grimes 312 Co. D George H.

Mustered into the service of the United States on the 21st. of June, 1861, at Springfield, Mass. Promoted to Corporal of his company while the regiment was encamped at Brightwood. He shared the fortunes of the regiment from Springfield to Brightwood, thence to Fortress Monroe, and up the Peninsula. In the Battle of Fair Oaks, May 31st. 1862, about three o'clock in the afternoon, McGrath was struck in the left breast by a spent ball, which passed through all his clothing but did not penetrate the flesh. He fell to the ground, completely unconscious. Private W.H. Day of the same company raised him up, and succeeded in reviving him so that he drank some water. But he told Day to go on and leave him, as he could not live long. "Tell mother", said he, as he fell back to the ground, "that I died doing my duty". He was, therefore, left on the field by his comrades, as they believed, to die. He recovered his strength, however, so that he crawled off the field; and late at night, when the company were on the retreat, they were surprised at finding him alive. In spite of the severe contusion which he had received, he rejoined his companions and persisted in performing all his regular duties. In the Battle of Malvern Hill, July 1st., 1862, late in the afternoon, during some skirmishing, he was shot through the groin. The field hospital, to which he was carried, was taken by the enemy, and he, with others, made prisoner. The rebels transferred him afterwards to Richmond, where he died in the Libby Prison about a week after the battle.

Mill Workers at Boarding House
description: Boarding houses were run by matrons who strictly enforced the rules of the house including a 10pm curfew, temperance, and weekly church attendance. Mill girls were charged approximately $1.25 per week to live in overcrowded boarding houses with as many as six girls per room, which permitted virtually no privacy. Female operatives worked twelve hours a day and earned $3-$5.40 dollars per week. Many of these young women sent their wages home to their families, but some simply saved their earnings for their future nuptuals and household neccessities. For recreation, the factory girls attended reading and writing classes offered specifically for them, joined reading circles, knit, and went shopping.

Carter Mansion Album
subject: Chicopee (Mass.)
description: A photo album of the Carter mansion, formerly located at the corner of Church & Grove Sts in Chicopee. Built by Elias Carter (1781-1864) circa 1837, it was the home of the Carter family including Elias's son Timothy Carter (1809-1890), who helped establish Chicopee as separate from Springfield in 1848. Elias built another home following Timothy's marriage to Eliza Harriet Bayley (1822-1903) in 1843, and Elias moved into the "new" home (not pictured in the album), while Timothy and his new family remained in the "old" house. The mansion remained in the family until 1923, when the property was bought by the Chicopee Falls Elder Council of the Knights of Columbus #927. The mansion was eventually demolished sometime in the 1950s. The album is bound in grey paper, and holds 13 black and white images of the home (interior and exterior), as well as a seated portrait of Timothy W. Carter.

Chicopee Pubic Library at Market Square, circa 1913 (original)
subject: Chicopee (Mass.); Chicopee Public Library
description: A black and white photograph mounted on ivory cardstock of the "old" Chicopee Public Library at Market Square. This is likely the original photograph that appears in CPL-HistMisc-003, as it is mounted in the style of early 20th-century photography. As described by the MA Historical Commission: "Located on a rectangular lot adjoining the City Hall, and facing Market Square, the Chicopee Public Library is a Classical Revival building constructed of red pressed brick with trimmings of white granite. It rises two levels from a rusticated stone basement to a low hip roof which is covered with sheet copper. Its main facade is dominated by a recessed, ionic columned (in antis) and pedimented entrance. A broad flight of stone stairs leads to the entrance, which in turn is flanked by tall, fully enframed and console bracketed, tripartite windows. Its corners are accented with large quoins and it is encircled by heavy, classicized stone cornice." There is a man standing on the steps who appears to be a workman, wearing a long white garment that suggests he is a painter. There is a car parked in front of the building, and a dirt pile that suggests this was taken during construction.

description: Article reads: "New Third Fleet Arrivals; CARRIERS, CRUISERS AND DESTROYER BRING 3728 HOME FOR DISCHARGE; The second contingent of the Third Fleet sailed into a fogless San Francisco bay yesterday with 3728 high-hearted men bound for discharge and civilian clothes. In contrast to the thick haze which greeted last week's fleet arrivals, yesterday's weather was as bright as the hopes of the new-comers. Tug whistles grunted hoarse welcomes, and a small, but enthusiastic, crowd lined Golden Gate bridge to watch the fleet units steam in. Leading the parade of victorious American warships was the aircraft carrier Bon Homme Richard, followed by the famed Yorktown, better known as the 'Fighting Lady.' The light cruiser Oakland and the destroyer Buchanan arrived in that order. Forty-three planes swooped and roared over the ships. They were from the Santa Rosa air squadron. The Yorktown presented a striking picture, as her crew lined up on deck so that their white caps spelled 'Fighting Lady.' Both carriers had their flight decks half loaded with planes, their wings folded. The usual homecoming pennants fluttered from their masts. Overhead, a blimp joined the aerial welcoming party. 'The Fighting Lady,' so named for her heroic war roles and from the stirring motion picture based on her experiences, will play a prominent part in Navy Day ceremonies next Saturday. The public will be allowed aboard her at the Alameda Naval Air Station, while the Bon Homme Richard also will be open for inspection at a San Francisco pier during the celebration. The city of San Francisco will play host to Third Fleet personnel on Friday evening, with a party scheduled at Civic Auditorium. In Oakland, the Chamber of Commerce will honor Captain A. P. Calvert, skipper of the Oakland, at a Navy Day luncheon at the Hotel Leamington. Harold Boyd is chairman of San Francisco's 'Welcome Home' sub-committee, and Harry Ettling, stage manager of the Golden Gate Theater, wil [sic] manage the show at Civic Audi…

Chicopee Manufacturing Company
description: Before there were cotton mills and factory girls in Chicopee, the potential for water power created by the unique location of the Chicopee River and the Chicopee Falls attracted wealthy investors from Boston to the agricultural village community of Chicopee. In 1822, the Belcher Iron Works, a small iron manufacturing venture located at the Falls sold a large portion of its land and water rights to The Springfield-Boston Manufacturing Company, the first industrial cotton mill established in Chicopee. The Springfield-Boston Manufacturing Company, soon to be known as the Chicopee Manufacturing Company, incorporated the next year and immediately began building the cotton mill, a dam, a canal, a machine shop, and tenement housing for the hundreds of mill operatives soon to be employed at the mill.

Chicopee, Chicopee City Directory, 1875-1876
subject: Chicopee (Mass.) -- Directories.
description: CHICOPEE AS once a part of Springfield proper, and now so closely allied to it in its business and social relations, as to still make it substantially a. prominent branch of the growing family which cling to "the old folks at home." It has, nevertheless, a name and fame of its own, most worthily won, and in point of industry, enterprise and intelligent thrift, ranks among the first New England manufacturing towns. We append a brief sketch of many of its prominent industries and business establishments THE DWIGHT MANUFACTURING COMPANY. OF the manufacturing interests of Chicopee, the Dwight Company is the most important, occupying seven large mills, and furnishing employment, at the present time, to 1,500 operatives. It was organized about 1833, with a capital of $1,200,000 which has remained unchanged to the present time. The first mill was begun July 15, 1833; the last one, June 8, 1844. Originally, there were three separate corporations, but these were early combined in one. The total number of spindles, now in operation, is 110,000, of looms, 2,671. The stock is nearly all owned in Boston, as it has been from the first, and the avowed policy of the management is to allow the outside world the least possible knowledge of their affairs. John A. Vernon of Boston, is president, Charles W. Freeland of the same city, treasurer, G. W. Bedlow, agent, and Minot, Hooper & Co. of Boston and New York, are the selling agents. THE AMES MANUFACTURING COMPANY. Second in magnitude of its operations, though first in public interest, is the Ames Company, located on the Chicopee River, just above the Dwight Company's mills, and close by the Center Depot, on the Chicopee Falls branch. It was organized in 1842, with a capital of $30,000, James T. Ames and N. P. Ames, of Chicopee, and J. K. Mills, Edmund Dwight, founder of .the Dwight Manufacturing Company, and Ignatius Sargent of Boston, being the principal Stockholders. Mr. Dwight was its first president. Its early history shows a ste…

subject: Chicopee Public Library Librarians-- Chicopee (Mass.)
description: A purple-ish sign with text reading: "This exhibit came to me in a dream. No, really. I was asked to put together an exhibit for January, and I agreed knowing that I’d have a few months to figure it out. I’m prone to stress-dreams; they usually take the form of: 'it’s the end of the semester, you signed up for Advanced French [I don’t speak French], you never attended class, and now you’re failing and there’s no way to fix it.' Super fun. After I agreed to put an exhibit together, I immediately had a dream that it was suddenly January, I’d forgotten about the exhibit, and now my coworker and I were scuttling around the Library with burlap sacks, stealing the tchotchkes off coworker’s desks to put on display. It was very cartoonish and honestly hilarious, and out of that dream (and sharing it with coworkers), this very real exhibit came to be. Librarians are fun people. We’re a little weird, and we also tend to collect things. The things on our desks not only enliven our spaces, but also tend to have stories attached to them. Some were gifted by patrons or friends, others were acquired in the wild and brought in. Whatever they are and however they came to be on our desks, we hope you enjoy them as much as we do. This was a collaborative project in every possible way, and it couldn’t have come together without the help of everyone at the Chicopee Public Library—especially Chuck, who mediated between myself and the printer. Thanks, y’all, for going along with my deeply silly idea."
