CLASS OF 1897
Ned Wood worth was elected recently to the presidency of the Concord Y. M. C. A.
Pat Conway's little boy was, May 8, in the Michael Reece Hospital, to quote Pat, "trying to recover from pneumonia." The class will all remember what a joyous occasion it was for Pat, Peacham, and Mac about three years ago, when their heirs were born. Every one will sympathize with the Conways, and wish a quick recovery for young Pat.
Mrs. John Poor was operated on at Boston May 5 for appendicitis, by Dr. Henry M. Chase. The last reports were that the operation had been successful. Every one of the class will hope that her convalescence will be rapid.
Harry Blunt spoke May 5 before the Senior Eating Club on "Some of the Building and Architectural Problems Confronting the College." Some problems!
In connection with Herb Thyng's activities he is also business manager of the New England Dairyman, which is published to advance the interests of the New England Milk Producers' Association. This 16-page paper is a little heady for the average business man, which shows that Herb has it on some of the rest of us.
Burt Carr has been recently transferred from the Washington Public Health Service, where he had charge of occupational therapy and physiotherapy, to the United States Veterans' Bureau. Here he has the same work, and in addition thereto the work previously carried on by the Veterans' Bureau in contract hospitals, district managers' offices, etc., covering about 40 hospitals throughout the country. He is also amalgamating the two forces to establish a smooth working organization. It is keeping him busy.
Arthur O'Malley during the last year has passed through a very serious illness, and in May was just getting up from it. How serious it was may be conceived when you know that he was unconscious for six weeks. He is now however, feeling well and fit, but the necessary absence from his work as head of the department of business technique in the High School of Commerce, Boston, kept him away from the reunion this year. There are 12 men under his direction in his department, which calls for administrative work of no small amount. Every man in the class will be glad to know that O'Malley is well again.
Allen J. Smith is in the midst of extensive building operations at Enid, Oklahoma. On this account it was impossible for him to get back for the 25th. Mrs. Smith, who was born in Hartford, Vt., is postmistress at Drummond, Okla.
G. Fay Hilton is district sales manager for the Hercules Cement Corporation, 20 Lake View Terrace, Rochester, N. Y.
Secretary, Harry H. Blunt, 125 Summer St., Boston
