CLASS OF 1910
Eck Hiestand's new business address is care of A. Hamburger and Sons, 801 South Broadway, Los Angeles, Cal.
Atkins Nickerson has left Detroit, and is now located with Stephens and Company, 521 South Spring St., Los Angeles, Cal.
Ed Shattuck writes a nice long letter, saying that they had a real get-together out in Los Angeles recently, and the "Tenners," as usual, did their share to swell the attendance. Ed has just moved into his home in Los Angeles, and he and his family have been eating ham sandwiches off the mantel and wallowing around in excelsior and sawdust for several days. All of us can sympathize with you, Ed.
Charlie Fay is reported to have "strolled down the aisle to the altar recently, but all details are lacking. Loosen up, Charlie.
Lou Wallace is sojourning in England, France, and possibly Switzerland and Monte Carlo with his wife and her parents, and it is rumored that it is purely a pleasure trip.
Fielder Jones is now associated with Chipman, Harwood, and Company, shoemakers, 564 Atlantic Ave., Boston. Fielder is reported to have reached the pinnacle of success.
Ben Williams is now busily engaged as a dry nurse for an Airedale puppy, in addition to writing an occasional story for some of our more popular magazines. A series of ten short stories recently appeared in Collier's, and your secretary can vouch for the fact that they are worth reading. Ben's ink bottle was sure full of interesting stuff when he wrote them. Let's suppose that it was ink. Here they are"None Other Gods," Nov. 5, 1921; "The Likeness of a Form," Nov. 26, 1921; "A Name in Vain," Dec. 17, 1921; Shabath," Jan. 14, 1922; "Commandment With a Promise," Feb. 4, 1922; "In Danger of Judgment," Feb. 25, 1922; "Thus Shall Israel Be Cleansed," March 18, 1922; "The Thief's Wage," April 1, 1922; "The Man Who Lied," April IS, 1922; "Folly," May 13, 1922. The list of 1921 stories in Cosmopolitan by our congenial ink puddler is below listed as a matter of record. "Buried Madness," January; 1921; "The Man Who Looked Like Edison," May, 1921; "His Honor," July, 1921; "The Coward," August, 1921. Ben has stooped so low as to admit that he will write the introductory passage to our next class report, but he says it's not his dish; that it don't agree with his digestive organs and furthermore it's non-productive. You're wrong, Ben.
Liz Prescott has taken strongly to golf, and is an ardent and enthusiastic backer of the new Laconia Country Club. It is supposed that the press agent who reported this item meant that Liz allows his friends to play on his private course.
Inky Taylor has just purchased a house in Concord, Mass. It is presumed that he is going to move into it, but the Secretary has no word from him to that effect. Let's know, Inky.
Our custodian of the class funds, when there are any, is reported to have just moved into a new home which he recently built at 134 Chestnut Hill Road, Chestnut Hill, Newton, Mass. Slip has been appointed by the attorney general public prosecutor in the matter of the disbarment of Nathan A. Tufts, lately removed as district attorney of Middlesex county. The case was heard June 5, 1922.
Walter Golde is to be conductor of the De Feo Grand Opera Company, Baltimore, Md., for the coming summer season. Members of the Metropolitan Opera Company have been selected to take part.
A column interview with Herby Wolff is given on the editorial page of the New YorkTimes of April 23. Herb is a member of the firm of Greenbaum, Wolff, and Ernst, who are attorneys for several trade associations. Herb's article dilates on the subject of fraudulent failures and bankruptcies, and the steps which are being taken by certain trade groups to combat this unfortunate situation. His article is well worth reading.
Russ Meredith attended the annual secretaries' meeting in Hanover as the representative of 1910.
Les Wiggin has gone into business for himself. He has established an agency for phonograph records, but all details are lacking. Loosen up, Les.
Earle Pierce says he is again breathing a sigh of relief, having just parted company with a landlord like you read about. Just call on Earle at 85 Brookside Ave., Newtonville, Mass.
Jim Baldwin has been engaged for three years by Lehigh University to coach baseball and football and to act as assistant in the department of physical education. He is a member of the faculty with the rank of assistant professor.
A little card recently received by the Secretary reads as follows:
"Miss Marion Frances Cutter, Mr. Hoitt Newton Charlton."
Tenners can guess the rest. Pass around the cigars, Hoitt.
If any of the class have any of the following numbers of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE, the Secretary would appreciate them. Several numbers of Vol. 1 to 7 (state what numbers you have to spare) ; Vol. 8, Nos. 3 and 8; Vol. 11, No. 3.
Ralph Paine has left Bridgeport, and has made a safe landing in Waterbury, Conn. He has become treasurer and general manager for Howland-Hughes Company, formerly Reid and Hughes, which concern merged with the Howland Dry Goods Company, with whom Ralph was formerly associated in Bridgeport. The Secretary received several newspaper clippings from Tenners in this section, and it is quite apparent that Ralph got a very fine sendoff when he left Bridgeport. The executives and employees of his former concern made elaborate demonstration of their loyalty to him and presented him with many fine gifts. Ralph, we all wish you luck.
Shorty Worcester is manager of sales for Pittsburgh district of Spang-Chalfont Company, Inc., manufacturers of tubular goods, with offices at Union Bank Building, Pittsburgh, Pa. Shorty lives at 233 Dalzell Ave., Ben Avon, Pa.
Secretary, Whitney H. Eastman, 707 53d St., Milwaukee, Wis.
