CLASS OF 1916
Again the season for news and gossip of the class is in the offing. Football games and dinners are our chief source of information on the Balmacaaners. Still we do get an occasional letter, and once in a while some stray member goes far afield and finds himself in Rhode Island, and comes to me to find his way out.
The Jenisons send in a "Table of Contents." Chapter IV is Lucetta Lenore, born July 14. "Austin writes, "Has the class of 'l6 got any other examples of four, or am I just getting started?"
Ed and Marjory Craver answer with Edgar Greenleaf, born June 27—their fourth. Louis and Mary Bell's third is named Louis Hemenway, Jr., and was born July 26.
Jack English, Ed Kiley, Fred Bailey, and Ted Walker have stopped at the airport to check up on us this summer. Ted and Alice and Fred took a flight with us. Jack is again in Boston cleaning up for and with Brookmire; Ed works out from New York; Ted, with Cliff and A. Lincoln Filene, runs Boston's department stores; and Fred still keeps the city's linen clean.
A week ago Mr. Filene again gave the boys a golf outing at the Weston CountryClub. I had to leave after lunch, and delegated the job of writing up the affair to Ted Walker. As yet I have not heard from him. Rumor has it that Alex Jardine won the tournament.
Some of the boys are moving around: Capt. Willard S. Paul, Infantry School, Port Benning, Ga.
Harry Goldman, Everlast Sporting Goods Corporation, 33 Union Square West, New York city.
Cap Mason, Sears Roebuck Company, Kansas City, Mo.
Nat Harris, W. T. Grant Company, 215 South Main St., Memphis.
Handsome Harold Tuttle, accountant, 33 Littleton Ave., Newark, N. J.
Jack Dancer, General Electric Company, Schenectady.
Lt. Barrett Studley, Naval Air Station, Pensacola, Fla.
The next to leave the thinning ranks is Abe Lincoln. Miss Elizabeth Barker Almy of Tiverton, It. 1., is the cause of his changing from a condition of single boredom. They plan to be married this fall.
These scribblings were started last night in Rhode Island and are being finished at the Hanover Inn. Sally and I flew up to the June's new airport this morning to hang around this wonderful town for a couple of days. We're just leaving to watch the team practice.
No, I am not scouting for Brown.
