CLASS of 1910
Johnny Shambow is now with the United Shoe Machinery Company in their branch at Salem Depot, N. H. I understand he is a special industrial engineer.
Leo McCusker has deserted the beauties of Los Angeles for the excitement of Chicago. He is with the Klmg-Gibson, Quinlan Company and lives at Eastgate Hotel.
Ray Cutler is now commuting from Jersey instead of Brooklyn. He is living at 84 Alpine Terrace, Ridgewood.
Billy Williams evidently isn't very much perturbed by Chicago racketeers. He writes: "Life continues on its even way. I have nothing startling to report. I continue as treasurer of Williams and Cunningham, and as the parent of three sons who seem to like the thought of going to Dartmouth—when, as, and if able."
I looked up Bill Harlow in Hyde Park the other Sunday afternoon when out riding. You will remember he is (as far as I know) the first 1910 man to have a son in Dartmouth. Bill was much interested in hearing about members of the class, and would be very glad to hear from some of you. I think we can look forward to having him with us the next reunion. Bill has two more youngsters who hope to follow in their brother's footsteps. Bill also told me that Chan Baxter was married about a year or so ago. He seems to have kept it a profound secret from the rest of the class. Now it is discovered perhaps Chan will give us more details.
Hank Haserot, the Pineapple King, is on his regular spring trip to Europe selling shiploads of pineapples. I understand that Hank handles most of the annual crop of Hawaiian pineapples.
Jack Bates is operating a concern doing contract drilling for oil. In their spare time they use the profits from the contract work to drill wells of their own. For gambling this beats speculating in the stock market with your spare change.
The sympathy of the class goes out to Jim Everett in his recent bereavement. He lost his mother last month, which was particularly hard because of the fact that he lost his father only last July.
The class has always been interested in Harold Pineo Jackson's middle name, usually with the accent on the "Pineo." It is therefore interesting to learn that the "James Pineo" referred to on page 444 of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE for May, in the article captioned "Dartmouth's Home Town Celebrates," was the oldest brother of Jackson's maternal progenitor, Peter Pineo. Peter was admitted as a member of Dr. Wheelock's church, June 7, 1741. The two brothers were sons of the original James Pineo, a French Huguenot, one of the early settlers of Columbia, Conn.
In the announcement of the summer catalogue of the Graduate School of Education of Harvard University, the name of Julius E. Warren appears as instructor in the field of elementary education. This will be Julius' second offence, as he taught at Harvard last summer. His regular job is superintending the schools of Lakewood, Ohio, where John C. Mitchell is high school principal.
Chan Baxter writes, "Even though no news I am sufficiently 'New England' to see that every stamped post-card is used. When are you coming out here on another purchasing agents' convention or something? You then could get an accurate check on families, dogs, golf, etc. Family, wife only; dogs, none; radio, none; golf, exceptional (though am not saying in what way). Have enjoyed seeing the ALUMNI MAGAZINE and your notes. Was especially interested to see Bill Harlow's boy is in freshman class, as we roomed together in Fayerweather freshman year."
Ralph A. "Shing" Sherwin writes, "Your mailing piece would do justice to our superadvertiser, Russ Palmer. I have a warehouse here in Worcester for distribution of contractors' equipment through Worcester county, parts of New Hampshire (the most important being Hanover), and Vermont. We have a quartet of Tenners here, Woodie, Hiram Cushman, Jim Nourse, and I."
