Class of 1926
Seen at the recent Musical Clubs concert at the Biltmore Cascades, classmates, Jack Roberts, Walt Moore, Hub Harwood, Charlie Jost, Edwin Dooley. Seen also were films of the 1926 Winter Carnival. Recent publicity with the Glee Clubs as you will have noticed uses the picture of Del's gang. In fact a lass from Northampton practically died when she discovered that Del was no longer leader of this club. But then we have always said there's nothing like college for a young girl, it makes them so quick.
The good old night boat from Boston brought Richard Mann and William Barclay to New York for a brief survey of that city.
Came also to N. Y., Richard Burlingame after a tour of drygoods merchants throughout the East for Buffalo's only real store. This fellow settled derby on rear of head and told of Abbott learning banking after a fashion, of Jack Dunn helping out in a law office but at present on a short jaunt to Bermuda for relaxation, of Mr. and Mrs. Oberlander's journey to Niagara Falls in Burlingame's Ford.
Another card from world-traveler Hartley reveals this information: Tunis—"Bill Uehlein and myself the jump here from Italy after kissing his Reverence's ring in Rome and find it hard to wander through the markets when we are both nearly broke—of course Bill had to annex an expensive cane so I countered with spats and a derby. We went out to Carthage and found it was really destroyed, now green fields 'splotched' with ruins."
Reports from Art Alexander reveal the interesting information that he will soon start to work.
Actual conversation with Bob May results in the news that he has transferred his advertising interests from Macy's to a well known house of advertising where he will soon be vice-president.
Filling the gap left at Macy's by May is Robert Stopford, a Dartmouth boy of '26 who as a youth sold doughnuts in Flushing.
Notable indeed must have been the '26 gathering in Chicago. Says the card from Del, "26 Good Guys '26 from the Grand Old Class will gather for supper, etc., etc." We in N. Y. sent regrets, but it must have been good.
Oh, by the way, that card that Sid sent you, fill it out if you don't mind and send check to Mr. Hayward.
Edward Chaffin has come to New York to live with Edward McClintock. Mr. Chaffin will attend to the eastern interests of the Walker Advertising Co. Bib Hudgins is in love.
There will not be any formal '26 reunion at commencement, but there will be a 1926 dinner at Mrs. Walker's Saturday evening, June 16, for those of the boys who are in Hanover then. This will be a good time and will be well worth attending. So please drop your secretary a line in case you can be there.
