Class of 1911

The new class agent's name is Edward Withby Pearson. He was born October 23, 1924. John says it is a relief to have the second generation take over the job of collecting money from hard-worked classmates. When announcement was made of this fact at the class dinner at the City Club in Boston the day following the event, it was voted to send flowers to the mother, although an amendment changed the flowers to a silver cup for the son himself. Since the son is unable to use it intelligently as yet, his father makes grateful acknowledgment of it in his place.

Two very successful reunions were held at the time of the Harvard game, followed by a third at the Brown game in. Hanover. At the class dinner at the City Club, fifty-three classmates joined in the soup and martial music. At the Saturday night party at the University Club, nearly a hundred were entertained at dinner and by various classmates as well as the orchestra. It was one of those famous good parties that the class has enjoyed for the past few years at the time of the big game. Pat Partridge and Mac Rollins in their original song hits a la Mr. Gallagher, etc., were good. Make no mistake about that. Also Bob Kimball, in an exposition of what a Ford may do, sent us all into gales of laughter. The night of the Brown game, about fifty of the class with wives had dinner together at the Plaid Pig, one of Hanover's famous tea houses.

It was a great pleasure to see "Spunk" Troy's genial countenance on these various occasions, he having come East via the Panama Canal for his usual fall visit.

There were about fifty classmates also at the Yale game, although there was no special class party held in connection with it.

Les Gibson still continues his connection with Wood, Putnam, and Wood Company although he is now living at 8 Cliifside Terrace, Maiden, Mass.

Announcements were mailed November 1, telling of the birth of the firm of McNally and Stucklen, a partnership to conduct a real estate and insurance brokerage business with offices at 60 Congres.s St., Boston. They will specialize in residential and business properties in the city. ,

Warren Patten was an enthusiastic 1911 rooter at the Harvard game. It was good to see Warren with the gang once more, and we were sorry that the recent death of his brother- in-law, a good Dartmouth '06 man, prevented him from attending the rest of our functions. Warren is now permanently located in Boston at 530 Lawyers Building, where he is to enter into the practice of law, specializing in that kind of law which will take him to Washington fairly often. You see, not being a lawyer, I don't know what kind of law that is. Warren has also been the active campaign manager for Frederick W. Dallinger, who was one of the Republican nominees for .election to the Senate.

The usual large-sized, expensive type of envelope was recently opened to give out information relative to one John Jackson Boynton, who on October 9 married Margaret, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Shaw, of Claremont, N. H.

Dick Chase has left his father's business in Lakeport, N. H., to accept a position with the Standard Steel Car Company as purchasing agent in charge of all lumber purchases. He has gone to Hammond, Ind., where he will remain for the present. His wife and family plan to spend the winter in Florida, and will join him in the. spring.

Mexico has been very prominent in the class news lately. At the time of the Harvard game, a telegram was received from "Brownie" Wilder, sending Wah-Hoo-Wahs for the team with best luck. At the same time, "Gabe" Campbell called on our ex-treasurer, Butts, to say that he brought the best wishes of the Mexico City delegation to the classmates in this country. It seems that the three 1911ers there, "Gabe," Brownie," and Henry Smith, are the only Dartmouth men in Mexico City, so they have frequent 1911 reunions with varying degrees of success. "Gabe" reports that Henry Smith has recently acquired a daughter.

In the last number of the MAGAZINE, the Secretary neglected to state that "Bendy" Griswold's wife formerly went by the name of Miss Rhena Morrow of Bayside, Long Island.

The latest information with regard to Sarge Eaton is that he is now located at 1073 Clay Ave., Pelham Manor, N. Y.

Dave Swain and his wife pleased their classmates in Hanover by spending a week there between the Harvard and Brown games.

Ed Poole has reported an additional fact with regard to himself, namely, that there is an Edward Junior, who was born in September, and is now learning the Dartmouth Song.

Dutch Irwin writes that the Cleveland 1911 crowd is very happy. They have lunch together every Saturday noon, and he says are the best Dartmouth gang in the country.

Frank Dodge will spend the winter at St. Petersburg, Fla., where he will again manage the Hotel Soreno. Frank and his family have just closed one of the most successful seasons that the Mountain View House has ever had. The Dodge hospitality is such that apparently people continue to come back for more.

Tom Wanty is living at the University Club, Grand Rapids, Mich.

Major James B. Montgomery, known to most of us as "Monty," is now located at the Fitzsimmons General Hospital, a government hospital in Denver.

"Windy" Batchelor sends his dues in from Guthrie, Okla., which seems to be a new address for him.

Jack Ryan has moved to 699 Prospect Ave., Milwaukee.

Gerry Barnes' business card indicates that he is with the firm of C. H. Williamson Company, Inc., insurance brokers, 220 Sansome St., San Francisco, Cal.

A word of appreciation is certainly due "Wee" Kimball for the way in which he helps make active classmates of his many friends. "Wee" has found much interest in the use of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE, and has even increased the ranks of regular contributors since he has started his fall drive.

Secretary, Burleigh, Hanover, N. H.
