THE POW WOW

President Chicago Alumni Association

Six hundred Dartmouth Alumni, several hundred of them accompanied by their wives, attended the First National Dartmouth Pow Wow in Chicago on February 22nd and 23rd.

Encamped for two momentous days and nights in the Congress Hotel, they discovered, among other things, that Dartmouth is truly a national institution—and oh, how they loved it!

Boston and New York were there on even terms with San Francisco and Los Angeles and Seattle. Atlanta and the Twin Cities and Detroit and Hanover and Denver sported green ribbons and senior canes along the famous Peacock Alley. A score of states vied with one another on the program. North, South, East and West contributed talent for the vaudeville—a quartette from Hanover, a comedian from Minneapolis, a hand-saw violinist from Cincinnati, a buck and wing artist from cultured Evanston, Dick Paul of Boston leading the cheers, Carl Pfau of Chicago encouraging to song.

And a wonderful medley of the classes. For '61 was there to patronize the infant Eighties and '24 was there to meditate sadly upon the crudities of 1900 and 1910. And all along through the Seventies and Eighties and Nineties and Naughties they were holding reunions postponed since Graduation Day long, long ago.

But it wasn't all just sentiment—of that sort—or mere sociability, or handshaking and back-slapping, or swapping high tales of the Dark Ages in Hanover —though this was woven through it all in warm profusion.

There was the business of the meeting —the definite purpose of all this Pow Wowing—the study of the Dartmouth College of today by the Dartmouth men of yesterday and the day before.

And it was a marvelously inspiring thing to note how carefully and conscientiously this was done. For every Pow Wow conference packed the Gold Room to its gilded balconies. And in the unanimous opinion of those who came and saw and listened, much good will come of it for the College and the alumni both.

President Hopkins, in two characteristically frank, clear and courageous addresses, delivered straight from the shoulder, explained what he and the faculty and the trustees are trying to do with the Dartmouth of today. He invited the alumni to join him in the work and indicated exactly where their opportunities for helpful service lie.

The impression he created was that of a man who knows what he is doing in an age of unrest and bewilderment, and his confidence was contagious and tremendously inspiring to this great group of men whose, loyalty to the College had brought them thousands of miles in the dead of winter to sit in that room and hear him speak.

The Pow Wow formally opened at 11 o'clock Friday morning—Washington's Birthday. The Gold Room was crowded to capacity, and many were standing along the walls when with gavel and gong Russell Palmer '10, President of the Chicago Association, managed to secure a moment of comparative silence and declare the meeting in session. The National Anthem was sung, Chief Chorister Carl Pfau and a volunteer chorus composed of members of all the Glee Clubs of all times, leading.

Followed a series of Wah-hoo-wahs for Dartmouth that chipped bits of plaster from the gods and goddesses painted on the ceiling. Then "Men of Dartmouth"—and the Hovey song brought the first unforgettable thrill: "They have the still North in their hearts The hill winds in their veins, And the granite of New Hampshire In their muscles and their veins—" A moment later Charles R. Webster '82 was introduced as Permanent Chairman of the Pow Wow, and the Rev. Myron W. Adams '81, President of Atlanta University, pronounced the invocation.

Nathaniel E. Leverone '06, Chairman of the General Pow Wow committee, unloosed a brilliant flood of oratory welcoming the visitors to Chicago and went through the gestures of brandishing the keys to the gates of the city.

Louis P. Benezet '99, Superintendent of Schools, Evansville, Ind., responded briefly but heartily, and the meeting was adjourned until 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

Joint class luncheons, bringing together contemporary class groups, made the intermission a colorful one. A typical luncheon was that of '09, '10, '11 and 'l2 at the University Club. More than a hundred were seated—Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen again. A brand new kind of reunion—and a joyful riot if there ever was one!

Sharply on the stroke of 2.00 Chairman Webster called the afternoon session to order and introduced "Hoppy" to the largest body of Dartmouth alumni and the fathers of Dartmouth men and visitors ever assembled in the Middle West. Dick Paul unleashed a series of cheers that were intended to be heard in Hanover—and perhaps they were.

Only the strict limitation imposed by the Editor of the MAGAZINE prevents the complete reproduction of President Hopkins' address here, for in it the high point of the Pow Wow was reached. The duty of the College to live up to its mottoes, actually translating them into action, was his theme.

"The great aim of the College," he declared, "should be to make life richer for the individual man and, through making it richer for him, inspire him with the proper incentives to make it richer for all men."

"Because of the power which the alumni have in the American college," he said, "if there is not understanding of what is being done they may lose the opportunity of being of help, and may unwillingly and unwittingly become a drag upon the College. The greatest indictment we have against colleges today is that we have men in responsible positions in the business world who use their college training to secure greater material riches. It should be used as a lever to acquire more for themselves out of life, if the colleges of America are at all to realize the opportunities that are theirs, and that being theirs, can be of constructive use to the world at large."

High praise for the faculty, the trustees and the alumni of Dartmouth was given, but it was clearly stated that the group of preeminent importance is, and must always be, the-undergraduate body.

The Lenin and Trotzky allusion which has attracted considerable attention and comment is here set forth verbatim for the first time:

"Recently," Dr. Hopkins said, "after we had brought a certain man to Dartmouth for a talk, I received a letter from a man who said we might just as well have brought in Trotzky or Lenin. I wrote back to that man and told him that if Trotzky or Lenin were available, we should be very glad to have them come to Dartmouth. If a man starts a

new movement, if a man raises some question in regard to the validity of some belief which we have regarded as sure, men will flock to that theory. There is no place in the world where fallacies in thinking will be so quickly punctured as in the college group."

Professors Charles R. Lingley of the Faculty Committee on Conference with Trustees was the next speaker. He described the growth of the faculty in recent years and told of interesting work afoot in each of the departments. Of President Hopkins he said:

"He does not consider the faculty as 164 cogs in a wheel. He considers them as 164 individual men, each with his own individual responsibility for making a contribution to the college.

"We, the faculty, shall not feel enthusiastic about you if you even think of trying to get him away from us permanently on any terms, nor shall we feel enthusiastic about you if you try to get him away too often from us. We want him in Hanover for us."

Chairman Webster announced that he had asked Major E. D. Redington, of the class of '61, to send a night letter to his classmate, President Emeritus William Jewett Tucker, expressing the love and affection and reverence and greetings of the Pow Wow body.

Nat W. Emerson 'OO of Boston, President of the Alumni Council, traced the growth of the various alumni organ- izations and told how they function in relation to various college projects. John U. Loomis '15, Omaha, Neb., a member of the Alumni Council, spoke briefly on the subject of the Council.

The ceiling, cracked perhaps by one of those heavily detonating Wah-hoo-wahs, here started leaking and amid the resulting confusion, while sopping alumni took cover, Guy H. Abbott '02, Member of the Alumni Council from Chicago, opened the discussion of the Alumni Fund.

"According to figures given us last year," he said, "there are 6055 living alumni, but only 3716 contributed 61% whose average contribution was a little over $18. Actual contributions, however, ranged from 50 cents to $2000.

"In a large proportion of cases, the men who contribute regularly are not those who have made any outstanding financial success, rather they are the men of more moderate means. There are among the contributors a big percentage of teachers, ministers and professional men of very small means to whom this fund means so much that they perhaps give out of proportion to their income. On the other hand, it is curious to find among the small contributors and the non-contributors a large percent of the men prominent in college, heroes of the diamond or gridiron, popular to the nth degree, who have been very successful."

The importance to the College of the Alumni Fund, its bearing on the problem of meeting an increased expense for faculty salaries of $40,000 per year for the next ten years, the necessity for supporting the President in the program he has outlined, the opportunity made available to every alumnus to link himself to the work of the College through his support of the fund—all of these were thoroughly, clearly explained.

The meeting was adjourned at the conclusion of this important address and the evening's entertainment was speedily under way. "Adjourned" is entirely the wrong word. The Pow Wow was the sort of gathering that gains impetus as it goes along. What happened between sessions was just as important as all that happened during the sessions. The spirit Of the occasion kept mounting steadily. Many dinner parties featured this intermission. In groups of six, eight, ten, thirty, fifty and even more the Pow Wow celebrants held forth in the dining rooms of the hotel, in other hotels, in clubs, in scores of private homes where open house was declared for all comers.

At 8.00 o'clock the vaudeville program started. The Dartmouth Glee Club Jazz Band, brought from Hanover for the Pow Wow, tuned up. So did Les Haws and his famous quartette. Jack Childs '09 and Rollie Hastings 'll "put on" their banjo and mandolin act, famous in other days; Carl Pfau '12 enacted a banana peddling troubadour; Lou Sisson 'll played soulfully upon a handsaw; Bill Terry '20 announced Embree '21 danced eccentrically; "Jake Smith uncorked a monologue. And there were many other acts.

After which the floor was cleared and the Jazz band kept playing until 2.00 A. M. Which ended the first day—but not for many. Sleep was the only scarce thing there was at the Pow Wow.

And what of the ladies? Warren Agry 'll, Chairman of the Entertainment Committee; Mrs. Louis E. Leverone, Chairman of the Ladies' Entertainment Committee, and "Ham" Gibson '97, Chairman of the Reception Committee, had done their job well. After the morning meeting, which most of them attended, there were luncheons, followed by motor trips that wound up at the Chicago Yacht Club, a bridge party and tea. The dinner parties that followed, the vaudeville and the dance concluded the exercises so far as the wives were concerned.

The Saturday morning session opened with many newcomers on the scenelate arrivals and Chicago alumni who had finally managed to detach themselves from their employment elsewhere. Things started with a hum—"The Touchdown Song," "Dear Old Dartmouth," "As the Backs Go Tearing By," etc. The volunteer Glee Club was still in good voice.

Charles G. Dubois '91, Trustee of the College and President of the Western Electric Company, was introduced as the first speaker. The paper he read was such a valuable and original contribution to the program of the Pow Wow that your Editor advises me it will be published in this issue and will be available for every alumnus to read and ponder.

The next subject brought up for discussion was the "Selective Process." Dean E. Gordon Bill, Director of Admissions, realizing that most of the alumni present were eagerly awaiting a clear, straightforward presentation of all the facts and figures bearing upon this tremendously important question in the life of present day Dartmouth, proceeded to give them just what they wanted. He told why it had been necessary to inaugurate such a policy; he stated that most of the great colleges and universities in the country have been obliged to follow suit and model their selective methods after the Dartmouth plan; he took the thing apart and explained exactly how it works. And then he proceeded to tell the alumni what they can do to make it "stand up" and produce a better type of Dartmouth man.

The two important changes that are being put into effect this year were described. This year the lists will not be closed on April Ist, as formerly. And applicants who rank in the lowest quarter of their class in the secondary schools "will not be looked on favorably." Records of the two classes that have been selectively processed were examined. The effect upon athletics was estimated.

In closing, Dean Bill stated bluntly: "The alumni must continue to realize that the Office of Admissions has no axe to grind except that of the good of the College as we see it. Above all the alumni must continue to be the most openminded alumni group in North America, and the one best educated in the real problems of their college."

W. Huston Lillard 'O0, Principal of Tabor Academy, discussed the "Selective Process" from the point of view of the secondary school.

Nathaniel G. Burleigh '11, Graduate Manager of Non- Athletic Activities, gave a complete picture of the undergraduate life of today outside the classroom. His address brought the morning session to a close. The room was quickly cleared and a buffet luncheon was served, the Banjo Club of the University Club of Chicago supplying the "orchestral din."

Eugene F. Clark '01, Secretary of the College, also secretary of almost everything of a Dartmouth nature, explained what a secretary is and what is expected of him. He intimated why live and loyal alumni ought to be subscribers to the ALUMNI MAGAZINE and discussed the important work that the Secretaries Association is doing for the College through keeping the entire alumni body intact and active along helpful lines.

Russell A. Pettengill, Chairman of '09 Finance Committee, broke into the program here with a clean-cut, crystal clear discussion of the Alumni Fund and the difficulties that are encountered by class agents and other martyrs who go forth each year to collect it. The result of his talk was a suggestion by Henry H. Hilton '9O, originator of the Pow Wow idea and the Alumni Fund itself, that the various alumni associations about the country organize themselves to stimulate contributions to the fund, and that a paid agent be secured to go about the country and personally solicit contributions. He offered to be one of a committee to underwrite the plan, and Pettengill offered to do the same. Merabers of the Alumni Council present in the meeting were asked to carry this message to the Council and urge appropriate action.

Professor James P. Richardson '99, Faculty Member of the Athletic Council, and Jesse B. Hawley '09, Football Coach, covered every aspect of the athletic situation today. While Hawley resisted all efforts to persuade him to make a Pow Wow announcement that he is going back to coach in Hanover next Fall, it seemed fairly evident to all that he means to do so—and that was a subject for much rejoicing. Motion pictures, slow-motion and otherwise, illustrating why we failed to beat Cornell last fall, were exhibited and explained in detail.

Dean Craven Lay cock '96 was given five minutes to tell alumni associations what they can do to help the College and he consumed less time than that.

"In my traveling among the alumni associations," he said, "I have tried to make this point, that it is our most serious purpose to see that no matter what the experience of the undergraduate may be, no matter whether at times he has to take the sting of discipline, when that man goes away from our green hills of the North, he will say, 'They treated me squarely; I like the college; I love it.' "

No banquet can be described—the one that night, the culminating event of the Pow Wow, least of all. Banquets are either dull or not dull. This one was not. There has probably never been a Dartmouth banquet before where there was so much outward enthusiasm, or such a thrilling undercurrent of emotion. Your eye running up and down and across that famous banquet hall caught picture after picture that registered indelibly upon the heart. Circles of faces glowing with joy and good fellowship. Men separated for ten, twenty, thirty, forty years elbow to elbow, bound to each other by the same old ties, that held them in the days of their youth. And marvelling over it.

The constant, steady, unceasing crash of cheers. Song upon song—all the best songs of all times. Then the speaking. President Hopkins, this time, with a radio receiver lurking in the blossoms on the table—a radio fan himself and nervous before an unseen audience of strangers listening in from Havana to Honolulu. Hanover listening in a thousand miles away. Alumni radio mad, who had written hundreds of letters begging for broadcasting. Dick Paul's dream of a cheer that would be heard in Hanover realized at last.

Dean Laycock, as Toastmaster, firmly gaveled order out of chaos. Bishop Ethelbert Talbot '70, pronounced the ten word invocation he had come all the way from Bethlehem to say. Judge Nelson P. Brown '99 of the Massachusetts Supreme Bench, the Rev. Ozora S. Davis '89, President of the Chicago Theological Seminary, who brought the oldest senior cane to the Pow Wow, and Fred Pattee '88 were the other speakers. Nat Emerson left the 1900 table to come forward and say for the Alumni Council that the National Pow Wow had fully demonstrated its worth and must henceforth be a permanent Dartmouth institution.

A few brief, sonorous phrases from Dean Laycock and the Pow Wow was adjourned.

This report cannot close, however, without a reference to Henry H. Hilton '90, who originated the Pow Wow idea and through whose efforts the first Pow Wow was carried through to such wonderful success. Nearly every speaker had words of praise for him and his great constructive vision which has been devoted for many years to the strengthening and upbuilding of Dartmouth College. The Fund and the Pow Wow are both Hilton contributions. It is up to the rest of us to carry on.

The following record of Pow Wow attendance by classes is unfortunately incomplete, due to the failure of large numbers to register. The Registration Committee estimates the total attendance at approximately 600, not counting the ladies, of whom there were several hundred. (Additions to this list will be appreciated by the Secretary of the Chicago Association.)
