The following addresses are wanted. If you know them send them in. If some other alumnus can give the secretary information, please do so.
Alley, W. W., non-grad; last address, Middletown, Conn.
Day, Arthur, M. D., 234 Fifty-second St., Brooklyn, N. Y.
Hilton, G. Fay, 23 Delaware Ave., Albany, N. Y.
Wallace, D. D., 164 Wall St., New York city.
Announcement of J. R. Woodworth's death has reached the College with no particulars.
It will interest the various old '97 members of Theta Nu Epsilon (T. N. E.) to know that the "Green Key," a recent sophomoric unit, has been instituted in Hanover for friendly and particularly reception committee purposes to visiting teams. It will be recalled with some degree of pleasure that old T. N. E. stood for some of these purposes!
Peacham Blanchard is attempting to make a pool on some delectable liquor which he claims will be raffled when young Peacham, young Pat Conway and young Dick McCornack graduate from Dartmouth, around 1942. Applications for tickets should be sent to Blanchard.
The Secretary's Greek is too poor to translate an article appearing in that language. Dick Boardman apparently subsidized a Greek newspaper to publish his photograph and the history of his life alongside that of a similar highbinder. I judge that if Dick hadn't said he was to "weather" at East Blue Hill, Maine, this summer, the impression would gain ground that he was in jail. Dick's two boys, Dick and Donnell, are headed toward Exeter.
Merrill Boyd is leading a quiet life since he left the class secretaryship. He says so.
Paul Clay and Cap Holt are both working hard for the Alumni and Memorial' Field Funds. Class subscriptions are inadequate in numbers. Have you helped as yet?
Gibson, after severing his connection with the Woman's World, has bought a controlling interest in an established advertising agency, and is now vice-president of the Kling-Gibson Company, Inc., 220 South State St., Chicago. Gib's son, Harold, evidently has some pi his father's business ability, for he has organized an orchestra known as "Hal's Harmony Hounds." They play for dances and entertainments.
Lull was appointed chief engineer of the Atlantic System of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, in September, 1920. His daughter, Barbara, is studying the violin under Leopold Auer in New York city. Outside criticism states that she promises to make a name for herself in musical circles and that her work for a sixteen-year-old girl is phenomenal.
Maben's new address is SO Pine St., New York city. He is to write up Delta Alpha history. Will other members of the class give side lights on Delta Alpha wanted for College records?
Kelly was East at the convention of Physicians' and Surgeons' Association in Boston ill June. He was in fine health and good spirits.
Rowe's daughter Ruth contemplates entering Wheaton next year.
O'Malley has been teaching evenings in the Northeastern College of Boston. This in addition to his duties as head of the commercial department of the High School of Commerce.
Harold Shattuck this year completes twenty years of teaching in the civil engineering department of Pennsylvania State College, with the present rank of associate professor and railroad engineer. He is also borough engineer, and is now building a large extension to the town sanitary system.
Semp Smith insists that Kid Folsom has bought a large farm down near Leland Stanford University where he spends his weekends. It is impossible to confirm the advice.
Hiram Tuttle claims that the only manager that came through this last year all right was prevented by a fit of sickness from doing what he intended to do, so that he now lives on a reputation for far-sightedness.
Bill Ham's really great achievement in Bridgeport has been along the line of beauty. His insistence on planting trees around his model part of that city has gained him the nickname of "Tree" in the local papers.
Roy Ward is still in Worcester. He is secretary of the Worcester Medical Milk Association, and has been for ten years, as well as secretary of the clean milk stations of Worcester.
Secretary, Harry H. Blunt, 10 High St., Boston
