CLASS OF 1919

The ruts of business may be deep, the cold winds of new responsibilities may impede the way of Nineteener at the wheel of venture, but the hearth of old Dartmouth ever glows, bidding him welcome, and speeding him onward.

Frau Faulkner announces the proud possession of Jeanne Faulkner, born November 13, 1922. Another in our midst is just one more for a better Tenth Reunion.

Milt Tucker became a partner in the building business of A. H. Tucker and Son, Milton, Mass., on January 2, 1923. That is beginning the new year right, Milt.

John J. Fornacca Margherita Pucci Sposi Epping, N. H., U.S.A. Genova Genova, 2 Dicembre, 1922 Via Ugo Foscolo, 11-6

That's John's wedding announcement, recently received. Salute, John,, bona fortuna e il presto returno con la tua sposa a vecchia Dartmouth ! Sure, come back quick.

The Secretary regrets that a nasal operation in December prevented his having for these columns more material in the January number of the MAGAZINE. Hence, some of these announcements may be found among the archeological records in Butterfield.

"Spider" Martin is now in the New York office of the Western Electric Company, stores department (or something like that). He and Bob Paisley have a wigwam over on the Brooklyn seaboard, a few minutes' walk as the geese fly from Brooklyn Bridge. Try and find it!

Freddy McCrea on the Golden Horn sends bounteous welcome to all forlorn Nineteeners who in this shivering East would roll up the shekels and trip for the feast that awaits them when the few Dartmouth men in Frisco get hold of them. Apparently distance does not mitigate the verdant ardor of John Wheelock's. protégés. Freddy says he's all packed for the Fifth Reunion.

"Shorty" Lyon is selling candlesticks, coal hods, fern dishes, cutlery, pie tins, can openers, soup ladles, and such jewelry for the Jones Brothers Hardware Company in Little Rock, Ark. From any radio booth call Little Rock 4-4001, and he will ask you something.

"Bud" Curran is selling real estate, including boat landings, in Huguenot Park, New Rochelle, movie props in Mamaroneck, and Woolworth buildings in . Rye. He is temporarily located in Pelham, and can be found in New York state.

On the eve of the Harvard game, approximately sixty (according to the nickel tips side of coffee cups) good 'Nineteeners took food at Louis's in Boston. A fine time was had, etc., etc.

New York '19's, the night before Cornell broke the redskins' tomahawk, turned out some twenty men for a class supper. Here definite plans were presented concerning the Dartmouth Club of New York city. This is a beacon light that every Nineteener can well afford to keep lighted.

Don McCaslin and wife are in Louisville, Ky. Don is a salesman for the Dennison Manufacturing Company.

Tracy Kohl has an interesting letter in TheDartmouth for January 6, describing his work with the America Relief Commission in Russia. The Secretary expects more news from Tracy as soon as mails come through.

Freddy Ives, Evanston, Ill., 1125 Davis St., to be exact, is married, lives with his wife there, and has a vocation, namely, publishing. That's all is known on the first writing. Perhaps the Remington will get more information next time.

Worthy causes for Nineteeners' support:

Alumni Fund Memorial Field Fund Local Dartmouth Club The Alumni Magazine The Dartmouth (daily) and all others

Jimmie Bear, assistant manager Detroit Clearing House Association, "yearns for news —will offer two bucks for some." He knows only one Nineteener, P. K. Watson, in ten miles. He offers a good suggestion: "How's for an alphabetical line-up on 1919 members, short, pithy, and spicy. If information is old, those who read it will or should hasten to bring it up to scratch."

K. C. Bevan says he's a refrigerating engineer with the Automatic Refrigerating Company of Hartford, Conn. And further he has traveled so much over Kentucky, Virginia, and West Virginia he has not had time to take unto himself a wife. If that's a refrigerating engineer, K. C., what must be an automobile salesman?

Chet Caswell is a mortician in Worcester, Mass. If we have our cryptox regulated correctly, you have one on us, or else your hand writing needs chains for skidding less roughly. Anyhow, Chet, we're glad to know the Dartmouth Club at Worcester is booming,—as per census card.

It would be well for all Nineteeners to read Curtis' Life of Webster, especially Vol. I, pp. 26-46. When, towards the end of lives well spent, such men as Webster, all through the ranks including General Streeter, turn their daily thoughts toward Dartmouth, perhaps it would not be amiss for the younger generation to look to her more often for inspiration.

Rog Clark is in the insurance business, is married, and living in Princeton, Ill.

"Ole King" Cole is married, and living in Dorchester, Mass.

George Rand and Mai Drane have a reputable clientele of fashion plates on Broadway—hence the prodigious success of Rand and Drane, clothiers, New York.

"Jigger" Merrill is a forest ranger in the Stanislaus National Forest. He writes: "Recently talked to juniors and seniors of a local high school about Dartmouth. It's some job to jolt them out of the idea that any college can possibly be better than U. of Cal, or Leland Stanford. My big- chief is a D. man, and his whole force—about 300—vote him a heman, and he's all that."

"Ken" Johnson is assistant publicity manager of "The News," that midnight vaudeville for commuters between Yonkers and Atlantic Ave. That's a great institution, Ken, and a good opportunity for you to bring the old school before a few millions.

Our treasurer, Max, has to thank many Nineteeners for their class dues, but not all. It will be well worth while to have all paid in to assure a copy of the complete class directory in the hands of every Nineteener.

"Charlie" Warner is teller in the Park Savings Bank, Chevy Chase, D. C. Expects to be married in Pembroke, Ky., next June, and herewith invites every Nineteener to the wedding.

"Eddie" Seward is a lumber salesman in Los Angeles, Cal. He is still single, as shredded wheat is too high. The latest despatch advises that Rollie Foss and Freddy McCrea are both looking over the California bungalows for which Eddie's company supplies lumber.

The Secretary's mail box has always room to receive notes, cards, letters, and even bills from Nineteeners. If the American eagle doesn't shed even pinfeathers, send your information C.O.D.

"Row" Pollard sends a letter, check, and promise to attend the Fifth all the way from Delhi, India, where he is one of the representatives of the Standard Oil Company of New York. Nineteeners are now in China, Russia, India, France, Italy. What other points not yet heard from?

Phil Bird and eight or nine others took in the alumni dinner at Symphony Hall. Not so good! Any how, Phil's petit brother was not so bad!

New York, it is rumored, had a 1919 get-together sometime in January. More particulars forthcoming would be appreciated.

The Boston Herald in an editorial queries upon the apparent "clannishness in business" of college men from Dartmouth, Williams, Colgate, Maine, and the like. It is apparent the writer of that article either made a wild stab at filling up newspaper space, or else he has never learned to analyze the "heart beat" of a "smaller college" man to find the reason why.

Charlie Mills writes from Grand Rapids a welcome note of dope for the MAGAZINE. He has completed a three-year term as instructor of English in Robert College, Constantinople. During 1921-22 he was registrar of that college. At present he is instructor in English in the Grand Rapids Vocational School. We'll be glad to see you at the Fifth, Charlie, and in the meantime would appreciate a note describing the many interesting things you did and saw while in Turkey.

Stubby Stoughton now trips it down to Nova Scotia to enter on the payroll of the Cape Breton Electric Company at Sydney.

Charlie Harney is now a member of the firm of that name, makers of fancy ladies' footwear in Lynn. Now that business is booming, his thoughts are turning towards matrimony. Charlie will give us the date later.

Henry Wilkinson invites the class to have their next reunion in the Orient, and guarantees an unlimited supply of Pain Killer. He recently met up with Norris Hodgkins and Charlie Biddle, both of whom have jobs some-where in China, Japan, or the Orient. More particular details are lacking just now.

"Jim" Bradley is an instructor in Manchester High School. Can you remember when Jim did the "Cy Young" trick on the campus diamond? Just food for smoke dreams.

Don Eldridge, with George Wyman and Company, South Bend, Ind., is one of several in whose hands the control of that company passes. It is among the must successful dry goods businesses in the Middle West. Don has been advertising and sales manager of this outfit for the past three years, and will continue this line, also assuming the added duties accruing to an owner.

Class solidarity is built up when each member feels himself responsible for a bit of news to his column, an occasional "chow" with classmates in his vicinity, and a trip to Hanover to keep the "old days" vividly alive.

Mr. and Mrs. J. Hobart Westcott of Brooklyn announce the engagement of their daughter, Miss Helen Dorothy Westcott, to Chester Whiting Demond of Manhattan.

The engagement of Miss Eleanor Harding Robinson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Godfrey H. Robinson of Boston to George Hartwell Ludlow of Evanston, Ill., has been recently announced. Ludlow, who left the class to enter upon war service, is now in the class of 1923 at Tech.
