Bill O'Leary has charge of the Americanization work in Lawrence, and is doing great work. His field is a large one, as Lawrence boasts of more than forty-five different nationalities among its population. When Bill gets after them, they have to be Americans or nothing, and he has been a big factor in putting down the Red element.
Gus Hartigan is head of the A. F. Hartigan Company, which is one of the leading engineering construction companies of Chicago. He made a Christmas visit to Boston, where he called on several of the fellows, and to Hanover, where he was royally entertained and shown around by "Hoppy". Gus is a very enthusiastic '01 man, and says the latch string is always out in the Windy City, and look him up.
Johnny Ward is getting to be a very famous hunter. He goes to Maine, where he has a camp, every November, and comes home with several wild deer that he has got the better of, and partridges galore. He generally takes some other member of the class with him to prove that there is no chicanery about his marksmanship. This is also attested by the fact that he is the champion trap shooter of the Tedesco Club at Swampscott. This fall, after killing all the game around Lawrence, he went to North Carolina, and made such inroads on the quail that the sport is spoiled there for at least two years. Johnny is president of the Chamber of Commerce at Lawrence, and at present is having an argument with President Wood of the American Woolen Company in regard to why prices are so high in Lawrence.
Jack Andrews is a sergeant in the First Motor Corps of the Massachusetts State Guard, and during the policemen's strike in Boston had charge of automobile traffic. The Boston papers spoke in the highest praise of Sergeant Andrews' handling of the heavy traffic on the day of the Harvard-Yale game, and says it was due to him that every one got to the game on time. He was on duty for eighty-seven days.
Secretary, James H. Kimball, Hingham, Mass.
