ASSOCIATION OF PACIFIC COAST

The thirtieth annual meeting of the Dart mouth Alumni Assoqiation of the Pacific Coast was held on the evening of the 21st of April, 1911, at the Tait-Zinkand Café, San Francisco About thirty loyal sons gathered to welcome our honored Hanover friend, Professor C. H. Hitchcock, the guest of the evening. We were glad to learn of his new home in Honolulu and that the Dartmouth spirit is much in evidence there among the new men.

In the absence of President Frank Morton '80, Charles H. Ham '71 presided in the election of officers for the ensuing year. George H. Strong of the class of '59, one of the most loyal and enthusiastic Dartmouth men on the Pacific Coast, was elected president for the coming year, Charles H. Ham '71 and Henry M. Lull '97 as vice-presidents, L. A. Sprague '07 secretary, X. C. Morehouse '01 as chorister, Major Robert M. Thornburgh '97 D. M. S., to fill the vacancy on the executive committee.

One feature of the evening was the unanimous re-election of C. S. Wright'57 as treasurer of the Association for the thirtieth time. In 1881, the year of the founding of the Coast Association, C. S. Wright was elected the first treasurer, and because of his warm feeling for Dartmouth men and activity in all affairs that called for Dartmouth love and spirit, has been given the honor each succeeding year. Selden C. Smith '97 acted as toastmaster of the evening, and with his good wit provided an intensely interesting list of speakers. The men as called upon gave a little inside knowledge of their respective professions and told of the opportunities in the various lines for Dartmouth men coming to the coast.

On the first Saturday of each month the Dartmouth Association holds its monthly luncheon at 12130 in the Tait-Zinkand Café, and all visiting alumni are especially requested to bear this in mind and join u.s. We are "getting together", averaging about twenty-five each month, and it gives the twenty men who have come to the coast within the last two years a splendid opportunity to meet the older men and feel that they, too, are a part of the life and spirit of good old Dartmouth.

With best wishes from the Dartmouth Alumni Association of the Pacific Coast.
