The Editor DARTMOUTH ALUMNI MAGAZINE:
Dear Sir:
A need for a Dartmouth Club at M. I. T. has been felt for some time and the actual first steps were taken by Wallace Ross '09 and Will I. Levy '19. Records obtained from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology showed thirty men graduates of or transfers from Dartmouth at present studying at the Institute and to these postals were sent announcing a meeting to be held Wednesday afternoon, December Bth. Without further notification, twenty-three of the thirty attended the meeting, this fact in itself being taken as evidence of the general interest in the project. The meeting was quite informal as it is proposed the organization of the club shall be. It was then decided that the club should hold its meetings occasionally, possibly once a month, perhaps once in two months. The following officers were elected:
T. W. Proctor '18, President. Wm. Thompson Smith '19, SecretaryTreasurer.
The purposes of the Club are threefold: To afford an opportunity for the Dartmouth men at "Tech" to become better acquainted with each other and in general, so far as is possible, to fulfill the social requirements of this group; to help Dartmouth in making easier the entrance of Dartmouth men at Tech and in making sure of the meeting and entertaining of visiting athletic teams representing the College; to help Technology by pointing out to those interested the advantages of further training at such a specialized technical school after graduation from Dartmouth.
The Secretary of the Dartmouth Club at M. I. T. will be glad to hear from anyone contemplating studying at Tech and will do all in his power to give desired information and advice. For such purposes he may be reached by addressing letters: Care of The Technology Christian Association, Cambridge Mass.
Yours truly,
