Class of 1922

So many people have been polite enough to say that the Twoter was a readable paper that it was jolting to receive the following letter, after the last issue: "Dear Sir : For the last time will you please comply with previous and this request to discontinue sending me 'The Twenty Twoter' and all other literature which you send out in behalf of the Class of 1922? It certainly will be appreciated. Yours very truly, C. B. H. Brown University, '22"

Here obviously is a man who doesn't care for the Twoter. Subscriber H 's name will be taken off the list. It is easy to see that he wrote while emotionally aroused, because that seeming restraint is vitiated by an awkwardness of phrasing that no university man would permit himself. The records show that our severe critic left Hanover in 1920, which was about the time our literary style froze into that which is now so displeasing to H . The Twenty Twoter will not appear again until this dagger is extracted from the editorial midriff, which should take very little time.

When most of us are becoming querulous oldsters, it is a pleasure to observe that there is still enough vigor left in the frame of John Carleton to take part in winter sports meets all over the East, which has been John's sport this winter.

At the Dartmouth dinner in Denver recently a very compact group of 1922 men was present, Nicholson and Dewey. Magnate Shoup was out of town getting a line on Texas oil fields.

The best part of one of the recent New York 1922 dinners was a wee speech by Bill Mann, who told his stick-by-the-fireside classmates about travel in Arabia. Bill will be in this country several months, and does not yet know where his next post will be.

Had Pinney recently argued a case before the Appellate Division of the New York Supreme Court, which is no small achievement for a youthful barrister.

John Wood is living at the Dartmouth Club, New York. He labors successfully as an advertising counselor, or whatever those birds denominate themselves.

James, lest ye forget, is superintendent of the Mary Hitchcock Hospital and will have to do with the Hall House. But greatest of all his duties and honors is his post as Hanover agent, for the fifth reunion.

The importance of filling out the measurement cards for the reunion costumes we again stress. Natty and trim we want the class to look.
