"Bob" Leavens was in Boston the last of May, attending the Unitarian Conference. He has been very successful in Omaha, both in his church work, and also as a member of the Alumni Council, representing the Middle West.
Carl Owen has been of very great assistance in securing subscriptions to the Alumni Fund, from the members of the class located in and about New York.
To those of the class who were in Hanover, the Commencement of 1920 was a very happy occasion. This was made especially so by the very informal supper given on Sunday night by President and Mrs. Hopkins at their home, to the members of the class of 1901 and their wives who were in Hanover. It was indeed a great pleasure to meet wit Hoppy and his wife in their home, and partake of their hospitality. We can assure them it was greatly appreciated. Besides President and Mrs. Hopkins there were present Ed. and Mrs. Hunter, Gene Clark and Mrs. Clark, Jim Dewey and Mrs. Dewey of Quechee, Vt., Mr. and Mrs. Stevens, Rolfe Smith, Irving French, Rubber Thayer, and Warner Crowell. Squash Mclntyre and Mrs. Mclntyre were in town for the day Tuesday, and Gardy Cobb drove over from Strafford for one afternoon.
Jimmie McCarten has been elected president of the Newport National Bank at Newport, Vt.
James B. McIntyre is assistant general superintendent of the warehouse department of the Illinois Steel Company, Chicago. Mac has charge of the fabricating shops and ail technical and erecting work. He has been with this concern ever since graduating from Thayer School, and has climbed the ladder from draftsman to his present position, simply by making good. It is said that Squash has become a great golf enthusiast.
Earl F. Whitaker is now with the Robert Grant Company, New York city. Their business is mostly exporting tool steels to China and Japan.
Ed. Hunter is busy in Hanover building two fraternity houses. He also has some large contracts in Woodstock, Vt., including the construction of model dairy buildings, and a power house for the Woodstock Inn.
Paul Eckstorm is chief clerk in the trust department of the State Bank of Chicago. He is also the owner of a 600 acre farm in Asheville, N. C., and there he spends part of his time, being interested in cattle raising.
The annual summer outing of the class, such as was held at Ipswich last year, had to be given up this summer, because of the inability of securing proper accommodations, together with the other events occurring in the month of June. The Committee felt that after such a successful outing of last year, it was good judgment not to attempt such a function unless it could be carried out with equal success. It is planned, however, to hold such an outing each year.
Plans are being .formulated, and some preliminary arrangements have already been made for the Twentieth Reunion of the class of 1901, which will be held in Hanover next June. This promises to be one of the best reunions pulled off by our class, and we all know the ability of our reunion committee. Every one should begin to make plans now, so as to be in Hanover when the celebration starts.
Secretary, Everett M. Stevens, 127 Federal St., Boston
