CLASS OF 1925
Another college year commences. We have on deck as our chief interest the football season, but this issue of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE chronicles many events of the summer in connection with the College which command the attention of all of us. If you meet any class member who has neglected to renew his subscription to the ALUMNI MAGAZINE, suggest that he send in his two dollars on the grounds that in spite of the class notes which appear in this journal it is worth while because of the merits of the other news and the various deserving articles which it contains.
News of 1925 which has collected during the summer months is not very extensive. We plan to continue the class bulletins this year, and if one has not appeared by the time this is published it will be because the necessary material has not accumulated. We are planning a drive for news, so drop the Secretary a line as to your whereabouts and recent activities. Three bulletins will be published during the year, one to burst forth at some as yet undetermined time this fall.
Nate Bugbee last July entered the Springfield office of Harris, Forbes, and Company of Boston. He reported at that time that he one day met Al Perkins strolling along Springfield's streets, and discovered Al was traveling for Appleton Company, publishers.
During the summer Schuyler Foster, Lou GoVe, and Bob MacCready did a "See-America-First" by touring the country in a flivver. Bob had been teaching Math in the Elizabeth, N. J., high school, to which he planned to return. Lou was in business in Amesbury, Mass. Fos completed a year of teaching English and history to the M. I. T. freshmen, and this fall is studying political science at Chicago University on a Dartmouth fellowship.
Francis Brown is also in the teaching game now, having been appointed as an instructor in citizenship at Dartmouth.
Eddie Edwards, who started the season with the Providence team, was with the Boston Braves the latter part of the summer, and did himself proud on at least one occasion by licking the Chicago Cubs 3 to 1. The newspaper men gave Eddie due credit for holding the Cubs down in expert style.
Charlie Graydon spent the summer in a camp some place and was last reported as taking up the printing business.
Dutch Jerman was headed for the Harvard architectural school, and was planning on rooming with Monty Montgomery and Whit Campbell, both of whom are in their second year of law work at Cambridge. Bob Sharp has also returned to Harvard to continue his work in English.
Lyn White is still teaching, but in a different place. He has changed from Kent's Hill Seminary in Maine to bookkeeping at the Bryant and Stratton school in Boston.
Our congratulations are extended to a considerable list: Sherm Barnett is engaged to Miss Elizabeth Pope, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry A. Pope of Wilmette, Ill.
Neil Williams is engaged to Miss Helen Forbes of Buffalo. Miss Forbes is a graduate of Smith College, class of 1925.
Ben Werntz was married September 4 to Miss Margaret Sterling of Cleveland, Ohio. Ben is still in journalism, but has left the Cleveland Press and is now with the Times in the same city.
The marriage of Miss Ruth Ellis Yelverton of Schenectady, N. Y., to Chet Bolles, our own president, on September 15 has been announced.
Karl Lipsohn was married September 4 to Miss Beatrice Ruth Papin of Burlington, Vt. Karl and his wife are living in Maiden, Mass.
Secretary, Greenwood Inn, Evanston, Ill.
