The March monthly reunion was held at the same place as the February one, with twentyfour men present. Nearly ten other men had planned to be there, but were delayed at the last minute.

There was no special speaker, but Baketel, Kimball, and Richter spoke informally, and everybody present was asked to stand on his hind legs and tell what he was doing. It was found that almost every kind of business was represented, from bankers, lawyers, and steel kings, to men who are still students in graduate school. Sherry Baketel took up the matter of the proposed Dartmouth Club House in New York. The sentiment was almost unanimous in favor of it.

The gathering broke up at 9.30, before Baketel had a chance to sell any insurance. On April 5 the annual dinner of the New York city alumni was held at the Hotel Commodore. 1920 had the largest number present from any one class.

The following men went through the eight courses together : Bill Bishop, Johnnie Bedford, Spenc Blake, Eddie Bowen, Leslie Birch, Paul Canada, Mart Coon, Charlie Crathern, Tom Davidson, Ralph Gibson, Al Haas, Buttons Hill, Don Harris, Russ Keep, Dick Kimball, Frank Johnson, Jack Mayer, Al Osborne, Paul Richter, Roy Rubel, Bill Ryan, Artie Stern, Gerry Stone, Pat Shea, Bob Van Iderstyne.

The new Dartmouth Club in New York city was given a great deal of publicity, and definite plans for raising the necessary $50,000 were explained. Dick Kimball and Sherry Baketel are the official agents for the Club for 1920.
