CLASS OF 1924
The Lonsdales are living together again, that is, they get their mail at the same address. Ralph now resides at 20 Haddon St., Bridgeport, Conn., "care of Stan."
If you see Larry Harter breezing around New York in a different Packard every day, think nothing of it. He has deserted his Park Avenue residence at the Advertising Club to become assistant service manager of the Packard Motor Car Company of New York. The class still has, however, one Park Avenue representative. Henry Kelly holds forth at 1133, and jaunts downtown to 413 West 14th St., to his daily stint as "merchant."
Jerry Wheeler seems to be in for a cold winter, up in Alberta practicing geology. His headquarters are 220 Traders Building.
If you're trying to find your way around Providence on your way to the Brown game and strike Adelaide Ave., look for the Westminster Unitarian church. Ev Baker became the pastor there this summer.
Unless the night court runs into overtime, Les Haws, attorney-at-law, should have a head start on the boys fortunate enough to see the Navy game, November 30. It's a short run from 339 W. Lancaster Ave., Ardmore, to Franklin Field.
Wylie Jones leads the soap peddlers out in Detroit for the Proctor and Gamble Company.
Bill McNiff qualifies for the faculty this fall, teaching in Miami University at Oxford, Ohio.
Congratulations are in order. The class figures twice in the announcement of the engagement of Chambie Strong and Miss Dorothy Morgan, Vassar '2B, of Milwaukee. Miss Morgan is Bob Morgan's sister, and the first member of her sex to be granted by the Outing Club an honorary membership. Next most important fact, Miss Morgan will spend the fall and winter months in Concord, N. H.
To the '24 Club of New York, a medal for steady growth throughout the summer. Charlie Holbrook, president, Sam Stickney, secretary, and Bill Fawcett, treasurer, sunk thirty-six members and collected their dues from June 5 to September 25, including Bob Buswell, Ed Donaldson, Bob Fistere, A 1 Hadlock, Dick Henry, Bill Knox, Perry Moody, Mony Monahan, Jim Reid, Merritt Smith, Mac Stevenson, A 1 Stopford, Paul Synnott, Ed Willi, Stub Reed, Curt Bird, Charlie Altman, Bill Buettner (dark horse of all candidates), Johnny Proctor, Bill Smith, Fred Friedeberg, Doug Craig, Norm Rosie, Phil Marston, Doni Coyle, Leo Stone, and Ed Howe. The members take on hay the first Tuesday evening of every month at the Dartmouth Club. The boys in the Pawn Shop district around Wall St., gather every Friday at the Planters' Restaurant, 124 Greenwich St.
Bob Benjamin stepped off just in time to receive the best wishes of this column. He married Miss Esther Cake of Chicopee Falls on September 27. We had a letter from Bob earlier in the month telling of his appointment as assistant manager of the Boston office of the Mutual Trust Life Insurance Company. The Benjamins will live at 302 Mt. Vernon St., West Newton, Mass.
Dave Dyche signed up at the New York Dartmouth Club this summer while making an investigation of some concern for his company, Arthur Anderson and Company, public accountants, of Chicago. He travels the country with the title of industrial engineer.
Alex Gibson picked out Toulouse, France, for his marriage to Miss May Huberich last June. Only the police of that town kept him from receiving our best wishes. The letter came back covered with unintelligible French, signed by the head of the gendarmes. We know he's not in jail at least, because he has since reported that he lives at 135 West 238 th St., New York city.
Bob Towse has made a brave attempt to live near his work. He resides at 183 and hangs out his M.D. shingle at 189 South First St., Fulton, N. Y.
Stu Eldredge is the commercial art impresario of department stores, car cards, and posters, with headquarters at 10 East Ninth St., New York city.
Ockie Hecht dropped in on us last May in New York from Guatemala, Havana, Honduras, and Alton, 111., and reported great prospects for the future foreign business in American-made bottles which he sells for the Owens-Illinois Company. Since May he has covered almost twice that number of countries.
John Fleming recently brightened the mail bos with a "news-full" document. John is an attorney in Los Angeles with offices in the Quinby Building, 650 South Grand Ave., and makes the eighth of the class located there. Mark Joslyn, also a lawyer; Harry Brough, Emory Pratt, Ash Castle, a manager of the Biltmore Hotel; Walt Allen, chain manager of the General Exchange Insurance Corporation; Leon Rothschild, selling Northwestern life insurance; A. M. Smith, and Freddy Eaton, overseer of distribution of an automobile turntable, are combating the movie influence of the environs.
Fred Shaneman holds forth in Seattle, selling for the Great Western Electro Chemical Company.
It would be a foolhardy secretary who didn't hold back something for the ensuing issues of this MAGAZINE. All thanks are extended to the three members who replied to 75% of the four letters written to them in search of news.
