Class of 1923

At this time next year our fifth reunion will be almost at hand. It is not too early to begin talking and making plans right now. This fifth will be by far the biggest Twenty-three gathering since June 1923 and really should be bigger still with over one hundred wives to swell the numbers.

Our third will never be forgotten by those who were present. The fifth will be even better so please keep it in mind.

The carnival brought back several Twentythree men: Brooks Palmer, George Vanderbilt, Charlie Morrison, George Fuller, Mr. and Mrs. Charles (Cap) Palmer, and Mr. and Mrs. James Landauer. No other class had as many back, not even Twenty-six.

Jim Landauer claims that the New York crowd are putting on some wonderful class dinner. Their last gathering at Christmas time was attended by forty men. I would suggest the boys in other parts of the country getting together more often.

No doubt by this time the Alumni Fund notices have been received. Our showing last year was creditable but not entirely satisfactory. The percentage of men contributing fell off from the previous year. Kip Couch is working hard on this drive and it is our duty to back him. The entire alumni body see the returns each year and a poor showing would greatly injure our standing.

Here in Boston we are planning a dinner and theatre party. Plans- are now under way and it is expected that a large crowd will turn out.

The second Harvard-Dartmouth hockey game brought out a big crowd which included several of our own members :—Sherm Clough, Frank Doten, Jiggs Donahue, Red Lee, George Fuller, and several others.

The game itself was the best college hockey game seen in Boston since Harvard and Yale played three overtime periods a few years back. Both teams were very evenly matched and as the editor of the Boston Transcript said, "It was one of those close thrilling contests in which there is glory enough for both teams and it is far better that the tie score stand than that a mistake on the part of either team should have given the game to one side or the other."
