Class of 1921

Have you sent that check for the Alumni Fund in yet to Corydon Litchard our class agent, at 1200 Main St., Springfield, Mass.? 1921 needs your help in raising its quota this year, and all sums are being gratefully received from one buck to—well the sky's the limit. Cory has three men helping him collect this year. They are G. Harry Chamberlaine, care of N. W. Ayer and Son at 200 Fifth Ave., New York city; Harland F. Manchester, care of the Boston Herald, Boston, Mass.; and Kenneth H. Thomas, 658 Woodlawn Park. Chicago. Ill., and a check sent via any of them will serve just as well.

Two class dinners have been held since we last wrote our notes. The Springfield, Mass., gang got together Monday, February 21, and the Boston crowd Wednesday 7, the 23rd. Ten men turned out in Springfield, and that is very nearly 100% of the 1921 delegation in the Springfield district. The movies of the Fifth Reunion were shown, and then after dinner the meeting was adjourned to the scene of the Dartmouth-Massachusetts Tech hockey game, which was played in Springfield that night, and the Twenty-oners had the pleasure of watching Dartmouth trim the Engineers 7-0. Those out for the dinner and the game were: Ingham Baker, Hal Bolles, Jake Garfein. George Harris, Cory Litchard, Carleton McMackin, Ray Mallary, Art Oppenheimer, Ned Pearson, and Dr. Jim Smead.

The dinner of the Boston clan of 1921 was held at Louis' Cafe. Arrangements were handled by a committee consisting of Chick Stiles, Tom Norcross, Harland Manchester, and Dan Ruggles. In addition to the above those present included Russ Bailey, Hoyt Marsden, Ralph Baker, Russ Goodnow, Red Stanley, Charlton Johnson, Lorin Goulding. Bill Spencer, Fran Cosgrove, Dick Barnes, Charlie Stickney, and Paul Sanderson. After the dinner the gang went to the Boston Arena and watched the Green hockey team make a thrilling last minute comeback to tie Harvard at two-all.

Pick Ankeny, Red Ege, Dewey Gruenhagen, and Rynie Rothschild represented 1921 at the annual dinner of the Northwest Alumni Association held in Minneapolis January 31. And they set a record which it will be hard for other '21 delegations to equal for all of the Twenty-oners present were elected to office in the Association. Pick was chosen a vice-president Rynie was re-elected treasurer, and Dewey and Red were made members of the executive committee of the organization.

From Minneapolis also comes news of the arrival on February 7 of Miss Dorothy Lewis Gruenhagen, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dewey Gruenhagen. Miss Gruenhagen weighed seven pounds at birth.

'2l is assured of another representative on the "big Green eleven" along about 1948 if one of its latest legacies, Norman William Crisp, Jr., takes after his dad. Norm, Jr., was born January 13, 1927, in Rochester, Minn., where, as reported last month, Norm, Sr., is now associated with the Mayo Clinic.

Before we leave the subject of class dinners any further behind, we don't want to neglect that held in Great Falls, Montana, late in February by the Great Falls Club of the class of '21, which consists of Vin Corwin and Sherry Sherwood. We really should say "consisted", for early in March Sherry moved away to Ogden. Utah, and left Vin as the entire membership. The reunion movies were shown at the Great Falls dinner, and Vin and Sherry were reported as declaring that they'd get back for the Tenth or bust. Sherry is now in charge of the Royal Milling Company's recently purchased plant at Ogden. "This puts me on the direct line from the East to California," Sherrewrites, "and so when the Eastern 'money changers' go to California to take their 'well earned' rest, I will expect them to stop off and say 'hello'

Not to be outdone by the New York alumni, who chose Ort Hicks as their secretary, the Chicago alumni have also chosen a Twenty- oner for that same post. The new secretary in Chicago is Hal Braman. He succeeds Bill Terry. Hal is a cost accountant for the Dallas Brass and Copper Company of Chicago.

News of weddings past and future continue to reach headquarters. Among those of the "past" is that of Bob Derby, who was married last June to Miss Marjorie Steele Emmes of Peterboro, N. H. They are living in Peterboro, where Bob runs a bookstore "a la Brentano."

In the "future" division is news of the engagement of Miss Dorothy H. Wellman, Vassar '24, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James A. Wellman of Manchester, N. H., to Bob Burroughs. Their wedding is set for this month. Bob is manager of the Exeter, N. H., factory of Gale Bros. Inc., shoe manufacturers.

'21 will have another member on the Dartmouth faculty next fall when Jack Hurd returns from Oxford, where he has been studying for the last two years. He will become an instructor in English at Hanover. Before going to England Jack was on the editorial staff of the Boston Globe. His work abroad has been on a fellowship from Dartmouth. Jack was married in Paris last June to Miss Eleanor Frost.

The Rev. Hugh Penney's church figured in a recent union of Congregational churches in Providence, R. 1., and Hugh is now pastor of the union church, which bears the name Plymouth-Union Congregational church.

No longer can the General Electric Company number among its able employees our own Artie Anderson, for Artie recently resigned from its advertising department to accept a position as contact man for the advertising agefrcy of Young and Rubicam, who have offices at 285 Madison Ave., New York.

Ort reports getting track of Norm Hubbard recently. Norm left Hanover freshman year to join the Navy. After the war his doctor refused to let him return to the mountains, so Norm decided that if he could not go to Dartmouth he would not go to college at all, and he entered his father's insurance firm. He is still with the same firm, and has an office at 11 John St., New York city.

Among the first persons to use the new wireless phone service between New York and London was Doc Rosenthal. Doc is now a partner in the New York banking firm of Ladenberg, Thalmann and Company.

Dr. Walter Wolfe 'has joined the list of Twenty-oners who have been heard on the air.

Walter has been recently appointed adjunct psychiatrist to the Mt. Sinai Hospital New York city, psychiatrist to the Jewish Board of Guardians, New York, and to the Hunt's Point Child Guidance Bureau, New York.

Al Laffey sends in a little news of the gang in Detroit. "The '21 group in Detroit although small keeps in contact every week by attending the Tuesday luncheons of the Alumni Club," Al writes. "Fritz Bornman, George Forman, Joe Vance, and myself are often in the bunch as a unit." Al is connected with the outdoor advertising firm of the Charles W. Wrigley Company. Joe Vance is lawyering in Detroit, and Fritz is vice-president of John Bornman and Son, printers. George is a member of the Thomas Forman Company.

When you read of the victorious achievements of the teams of South Dakota State College of Brookings, South Dakota you may know that they reflect the good teaching of none other than Bert Ekberg, who used to give some busy afternoons to Dartmouth's gridiron rivals back in 1919. Bert is now athletic coach at the South Dakota institution.

Incidentally quite a few Twenty-oners are helping educate the youth of the Middle West. Howard Flewelling is a member of the English department of Carleton College at Northfield, Minn., Perry Mitchell is assistant professor of business policy and secretary of the School of Business Administration at the University of Michigan, and Ken Smiley, who deserted us part way along the course to get his degree from Bowdoin, is dean of men at the University of North Dakota.

The '21 material sent out in February to David Seegal was returned marked "address unknown. " The last address we have for him is 39 St. John St., Jamaica Plain, Mass. Any clue as to his wheareabouts will be greatly appreciated at this end of the line.

Incidentally our February broadcast requires a word of explanation. Due to an error, the envelopes we had printed and directed did not prove large enough to hold the New York Dartmouth Club material, so Ort and yours truly decided there was nothing to do but leave the Club's broadside out. It will be sent you at a later date. And in the meantime Mac Rollins '11 suggests that non-resident memberships at $10 a year are very desirable things for any of you who visit New York frequently.
