DARTMOUTH CLUB OF DETROIT
On Friday night, October 7, the Dartmouth Club of Detroit met for dinner at the Board of Commerce to celebrate Dartmouth Night. This meeting took the place of the fall business meeting. Out of town guests were Merrill '74, of Concord, N. H.; Vail '21, of Evanston, Ill.; and Sonnenburg '21, of University of Detroit and Marquette, Mich. About twenty-five of our own members were present. After dinner Mr. Merrill said a few words reminiscent of the Old Dartmouth of the Seventies.
The resignation of C. C. Hitchcock as secretary on account of business pressure was read and accepted. Charles G. Bennett 'OB was elected to fill the gap for the remainder of the year. There being two vacancies on the executive committee, A. R. Maynard '05 and C. C. Hitchcock '16 were elected to fill in. It was agreed to run private wires from the Cornell, Penn., and Syracuse games—inviting the local alumni of the opposing teams to join us on those days. There was some discussion as to a Christmas dance, and whether or not to have the Musical Clubs 'again, the heavy overhead expense of the Clubs being quite a burden for an association of only sixty-five men. A motion was made and passed to invite Dr. Hopkins, Dean Laycock, or both to address us on their Western trips this year. The Secretary spoke in favor of the Memorial Field Fund, urging all members to support it without fail.
Meeting adjourned after reading Secretary to the President Larmon's bulletin and the wire sent to President Hopkins by our Secretary. The singing of the Dartmouth Song closed the evening.
