CLASS OF 1903

Mike Dunn called on the Secretary on October 21. He was in Chicago attending a convention at the Edgewater Beach Hotel. A good talk resulted.

Kenerson took hold of the festivities for the class attendant on the Harvard game. He planned a golf game at the Winchester Country Club, with whoever of the class wished as his guests at luncheon and golf. There followed the stag dinner in Boston that (Friday) night, with the game Saturday afternoon, and the usual family dinner Saturday night. The Secretary was unable to be present, and has heard from nobody as yet as to the results of the plans. It is to be hoped many of the class were present.

Tink Erwin, deputy commissioner of education for the state of Vermont, was elected president of the Vermont State Teachers' Association at Rutland in October.

In the theatrical news it is reported that Helen Ford, whose last engagement was as star of Peggy-Ann, has returned from Europe and will start rehearsals for a new musical which Fields, Rogers, and Hart are writing for her, and which Lew Fields and Lyle D. Andrews will produce.

George Patch is located at the Cranbrook School, Birmingham, Mich.

Frank Wentworth has a new address at 1864 Yosemite Road, Berkeley, Cal.

Ralph Neal is with the U. S Post Office, at the Burlington Street Office, Boston.

In our last letter, we reported that Bertram Mudge, son of our classmate, Otis, is studying as an exchange pupil from Tabor Academy in Germany for the summer. The Boston Globe of August 5 states that Bertram, like all good American boys, wanted to get a football to limber up for the fall season. He could find none in all Germany and finally had to send home for one. Sounds like Otis, doesn't it?

Charlie Luce has a new address at 58 Manchester St., Nashua, N. H.

James Geraghty is a paper mill superintendent at the Croker Division, American Writing Paper Company, Holyoke, Mass. He lives at 533 Beach St., Holyoke.

The Tirrell Prize at the end of the last school year was awarded to Harrison Rice Linnell, class of 1931. Oh. yes, this prize is for physical improvement. Remember Doc, freshman year? Finest physique in the class, I'd say.

A list of memberships in the Dartmouth Alumni Association of the Pacific Coast is at hand. Three of our men are listed, viz., Lyman, F. W. Wentworth, and Williams. Since this was printed, Follett has joined them. Of our neighboring classes, there appear C. W. Davis and Kircher, 1902, and Belknap, Perkins, Root and Sharp, of 1904.

C. E. Morrison is with the American Colortype Company at 207 West 25th St., NewYork, in the sales department. His home address is 2060 East 28th St., Brooklyn.

Meat Hanlon was working before the primary for the nomination and election of Robert Leach to the lieutenant-governorship of Massachusetts on the Republican ticket.

A recent clipping from a Boston paper shows Bergengren as a leader in the Credit Union National Extension Bureau. He planned a trip to Germany, where the Credit .Union movement originated. At one meeting Roy hobnobbed with Edward Filene. This is a movement to give borrowing power to people of integrity and clean record, without security. The experience of one New York bank which has inaugurated the plan is that the percentage of loss is less than on strictly commercial loans. This is a good work, Roy; power to your elbow.

Winfield Rice is still located at the Boys' High School, Marcy and Putnam Aves., Brooklyn, N. Y. He has a new address (residence) at 400 Clinton Ave., Brooklyn. This school strikes us as the alma mater of such well known classmates as Ed Schlatter and Hy Ruppel, and probably several others.

The teachers of West Windsor District, Vermont, consisting of the towns of Ludlow, Plymouth, and Shrewsbury, had a meeting at Black River Academy in September. Erwin addressed the meeting as deputy commissioner of education for the state.

A card is received from the Averys on their Alaska trip, mailed from Atlin, B. C. The picture shows a dog team hauling a sledge across the snow.

Henry Porter states that he is located at 25 West 43dSt.,New York,in civil engineering. His home address is 9 Halcyon St., Yonkers, N. Y.

An editorial in a Manchester, N. H., paper of some months ago, traces the relationship of Andrew Jackson to his illustrious namesake and kin. Andrew Jackson's father went to North Carolina from Ireland, and a cousin at about the same time went to New Hampshire. His descendants live there today. Our classmate is one of them, and his brother Robert (Dartmouth 1900) is the leader of the Democratic party of New Hampshire. Our Andy, as we have all heard him say, was born on January 8, the anniversary of Old Hickory's victory at New Orleans, and of course he had to be christened "Andrew" from that fact. The editorial in question states further that Andrew is planning a trip around the world.

An item from a recent Newton Center paper states that Alderman Fitts, chairman of the buildings committee of the City Council, is trying to get his committee together to consider the tearing down of two old school buildings, which has been recommended, and the erection of a new building.

How many men are coming to the Pow Wow in Chicago? Of course it will be all over by the time this is published, but it is to be hoped the class will send a good delegation.

Secretary, 1033 North Shore Ave., Chicago
