Class of 1925
The Boston dinner, which has been mentioned before, we believe, materialized very successfully about six weeks ago,'on approximately the twenty-third of March. The dinner part was at the University Club, and fifty-one classmates partook of the food, after which they departed en masse to witness the HarvardDartmouth 2-2 hockey game.
Twenty-five formed the only organized Dartmouth cheering section, ably led by the stentorian voice of Frank Wallis. The contest itself was about the best hockey game ever played by any colleges, and you have doubtless read of it elsewhere.
The list of those lucky enough to be in this party is as follows : Parker Merrow, Dick Holden, Bill Thompson, Whit Campbell, Rog Wyckoff, Bernie Levison, Andy Edson, George Stevens, Morrie Morrison, Joe Leavitt, Lang Spring, Jock Brace, Fred Weston, El Kirouac, Norm Strickland, George Sprague, George Moore, Tippy Tower, Art Smith, Bill Beacham, Pete Peterson, Bob Tucker, Jake Penney, Ed Griffin, Bob Reynolds, Bill Sleigh, Frank Wallis, Gordon Churchill, Bob Sharp, E. E. Richards, Mott Garlock, Bill Hartman, Bob Canfield, G. E. Megathlin, Les King, A1 Hollenbeck, Larry Bankart, Homer Tilton, Stan and George Chamberlain, Curt Abel, Pete Haffenreffer, Fred Smith, Don Lawson, Bill Jenkins, Lyn White, Lou Kimball, Charlie Haywood, George Mansfield, Don Hunt, and Polly Nute.
A permanent organization of the class of '25 in Boston was formed, with the following making up the executive committee: Don Lawson, Freddie Smith, Lyn White, Bill Jenkins, and Lou Kimball, the financier. More gatherings are therefore to be expected if these fellows don't forget about it. They did nobly the first time, so we are not doubtful about the future.
Stan Chamberlain and Homer Tilton brought their wives to the hockey game. We shall have to start a social column for such items.
The occasion was Pete Haffenreffer's farewell appearance in Boston. He started West to some mine in Utah shortly afterward, and thoughtfully stopped off in Chicago long enough to attend the Dartmouth Monday luncheon there.
Larry Bankart has also left Boston, and is now continuing' the wool business in Philadelphia.
Lou Kimball of Frigidaire, besides giving the initial impetus to the class dinner, is helping Woody Wilson as an assistant class agent for Boston. Don't forget, by the way, to let your class agent or Bob Strong in Hanover hear from you on the Alumni Fund proposition. It's a good place for any money any man has.
George Stevens is another of the Dartmouth gang to join the ranks of Frigidaire, his father having added this department to his ice business. If they don't like it one way, .he can sell them the other way.
Ty Werner has been awarded the Henry Elijah Parker Fellowship by the College. This is a $1,000 fellowship to be used for the pursuit of advanced studies.
Harry Foster has been reappointed to the George E. Chamberlain Fellowship, which he has held during this past year and which is for the value of $1,000.
Church Bacon has recently been made a daddy, and can now brag about his wonderful daughter. He is in the real estate game in Cleveland, with Van Sweringen's.
Pete Kelsey, whose address was given as the Sun Insurance Office, was named as the man to whom you were supposed to send your check if you wanted any tickets to the Dartmouth Musical Clubs concert in New York last month.
Percy Williamson and Larry Larrabee have become resident members of the Dartmouth Club of New York city, and the names of Buck Snyder and Charlie Fitch appear on the list of non-residents.
This club has on its program regular dinners and luncheons for 1925. Incidentally, if you find yourself in New York with a lot of ability and no job, the club has an advisory committee on employment, which is eagerly waiting to connect men and jobs as they should be connected.
Jack Whitbeck is in the New York office of a Philadelphia bond house.
Parker Merrow is still running his thousand and one in Ossipee.
Bill Calvert is about to finish at the Columbia Medical School. Bill has brought honor upon himself by becoming the president of his class there.
Not to be outdone by any mere metropolitan groups, 1925 in Hanover had a good dinner at the Inn with sixteen men present: Jack Spring, Jack Norris, Win Edgerly, and Harry Crawford from the medical school, Brad Foss and Bill Chism from Thayer, Ed Childs, Bull Kelley, and Steve Ryan from Tuck, Professors Ernest Brown of citizenship and Canfield Hadlock of chemistry, Stub Dwinell of the D.C.A., Lane Goss of the bank, Ty Werner of the chemistry department, and Frank Akin and Jim Curry, graduate students. Adjournment was made afterwards to the Sunday evening movies. A motion was passed reciprocating the regret of Pete Blodgett, Stebbins, Les Eaton, and Curt Wright, who are also in Hanover, at their inability to attend.
Lee Jamison is with N. W. Ayer and Son in Philadelphia, and rejoices at working in the United States, even that part of it. He attended the basketball game there in which Dartmouth defeated Princeton to win the basketball title, and reports seeing these others on the job: Bill Pugh, Woody Wilson, Carl Bridenbaugh, Lew Goas, Bucky Friedmann, and Beany Statzell.
Eddie Edwards looks like a regular on the pitching staff of the Braves. One of the March issues of The Dartmouth carried a paragraph telling how he struck out Babe Ruth in the Bambino's only appearance at the plate in an exhibition game between the Braves and the Yankees during the training period.
Our congratulations are extended to Lane Goss, whose engagement to Miss Constance Woodworth has been announced. Miss Woodworth is the daughter of Edward K. Woodworth of Concord, N. H., and is a junior at Vassar.
Congratulations also to George Scott, who was married to Miss Hazel Beatrice Carll of Waterboro, Me., in March. Scotty and his bride are living in Plymouth, N. H., where Scotty teaches and coaches at the Holderness School.
Secretary, Greenwood Inn, Evanston, Ill.
