CLASS OF 1901
December, 1928 Everett M. Steens

Harold P. Hathaway is now with the New England Oil Company, with headquarters at Haverhill, Mass. The family still continue to reside .at Shawsheen Village, Andover, Mass., near neighbors of the George Frenches.

Louie Crone's daughter, Ernestine, graduated from the Connecticut College for Women, New London, last June. Louie, Jr. has entered Dartmouth in the class of 1932.

Copied from the New York Dartmouth Club Bulletin:

"Verson Gooch, the personnel sleuthhound of the United Fruit, has just sent us a copy of their house organ containing a story about his adventures in search of big strong boys who crave a life of excitement bearding the banana in its native jungle. Well, those of you who think bananas grow with the bananas hanging down will learn differently on the cruise.

"Another important factor in the greater use of the Club is the work of the house committee, of which Harry B. Gilmore 'Ol is chairman. This committee has met regularly and acted efficiently, and in general is responsible for the improvements throughout the house."

There are a number of 1901 boys at Tabor Academy, Marion, Mass., this year. Charlie Prescott, Johnnie Ward, and Gene Clark have each a boy there, while Tom and Warren Bishop are both there, and Ben Greer has a nephew.

The announcement has come to hand of the organization of the firm of McMillan and Rhodes, investment securities, Fidelity- Philadelphia Trust Building, 123 South Broad St., Philadelphia. You will of course recognize our old classmate Eddie McMillan as the senior partner. Both partners have for many years acted as investment consultants to an extensive conservative clientele, and a continuance of this service will be afforded by the new firm.

However disappointing the result of the Harvard-Dartmouth game may have been to the followers of the Green, the class of 1901 seemed to recover their drooping spirits in short order, as they gathered for their annual family party at the Algonquin Club, soon after the game. This party was a typical 1901 gathering, no formality, but a general good time, giving all an opportunity of renewing the old friendships that are growing dearer each year, knitting us closer and closer into one big family. It was good to have the children too; we hope they will always feel they are a part of the class; we certainly so consider them. Who was there, you ask. Well, about all the regulars, with some that are not always able to make it. Henry and Lucia Salomon came up from Providence, bringing Ethel and Tommie Remsen, Chan and Mary Cox, with Hoppy, Celia, and Ann Hopkins, and Nancy Cox, Gene Maguire, and Gene, Jr. From Andover came the George Frenches and the Hatha ways; Jim and Roxy McCarten all the way from Newport, Vt.; the Brooklyn delegation comprised the Bishop family, Bunker, Pearl, and the two boys, Tom and Warren; New Hampshire was well represented, with Ed and Ecna Hunter from Hanover, Ben and Mrs. Bond from Rochester, Gene and Mrs. Leach from Concord, and the Steve Stevens from Nashua. Ben Greer and Mrs. Greer were over from New York, Helen and Ernest Eddy from Hartford. Deacon Hildreth, the Crowells, Warner, Nan and Ruth, with a young man guest and Miss Soulee, Henry and Mildred Taylor, T and May Wood, Rolfe and Mary Smith and son and daughter, Andrew and Mrs. Marshall, Arthur and Mrs. Sampson, Louie Crone and guest, Johnnie and Alam Ward, and Jim and Floss Kimball. The thanks of the class are due the committee for the excellent arrangements, which we trust were satisfactory to some of those who have been kicking about the inactivities of the aforesaid committee. Special thanks are due Johnnie Ward for the courtesy and privilege of the use of the suite at the Algonquin Club.

The Secretary noted others of the class at the game who did not make the dinner, ineluding Pa and Mrs. Rollins, Harry Clark, C. W. Fletcher, Burke, Harland and Mrs. Cate, Ned and Mrs. Warren, Ted and Mrs. Hancock, Verson Gooch, Charlie and Mrs. Prescott, Gardy Cobb and Miss Fletcher, Harry Cook and son, and Rochester Woodman.
