The publicity committee reports that as a result of the circular letter sent out the first of February in regard to the twentieth Reunion in June, over sixty favorable replies have been received already.
Goochie, writing from Cuba," says he will leave there about the first of June, so as to be in Hanover in time for the Reunion, and he also inclosed a photograph, and made the following notation on same: "She may come with me."

Johnnie Ward, Jim Kimball, and Gillie, with their wives, and Capt. French recently spent the week-end at Hanover, and enjoyed the delights of Hanover in winter. While there the publicity committee completed some arrangements for the Reunion.

John Ward, who joined the Boston Athletic Association as soon as he moved to Boston, has already made his presence felt, and a recent issue of the Unicon, the Association publication, spoke of him as one of the new shooters showing great promise (no, not crap shooting); and on January 29 he won the club trophy and the hundred bird scratch. Those of us who have known him are not surprised, for he has always been strong for the birds, and we expect him to bring even greater laurels to the class. Jim Kimball and Cap French have also joined the Boston Athletic Association, and it is planned to use the club house for more frequent meetings of the publicity committee.
