CLASS OF 1912
To those members who have been turning the pages of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE looking in vain for news of 1912, "we," the secretarial staff, beg your pardon for the disappointment caused. Certain unfortunate circumstances made necessary a moratorium on 1912 news to the MAGAZINE, which lasted longer than was anticipated.
First must be mentioned the great party given by Mr. and Mrs. Jim Erwin in their beautiful home in Englewood. It was Saturday, June 8, and the first guests arrived around one o'clock. The weather was none of the best, and made inadvisable a croquet match at which Jim had hoped to be able to show his skill. An elaborate buffet luncheon was served soon after the greetings had all been made. Assisting in "hosting" were Mr. and Mrs. Tom Davidson '20. The afternoon passed all too rapidly, and it soon became necessary for those with long trips home to make their party bows. All in all it was just the kind of a party you would expect of Jim and Mrs. Erwin, and every one wants to come again. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Joe Doe, Randy Burns and Manuel Garcia (all alone), Dud Redfield and Mrs., Dick Remsen, Mr. and Mrs. Jogger Elcock, Mr. and Mrs. Dutch Mahlstedt, Fred Goodrich, Mr. and Mrs. Hutch Biery, Doc and Mrs. O'Connor, Mr. and Mrs. Slim Eaton, Carl and Mrs. Rollins, Doc and Mrs. Worcester, and Warren Bruner from Chicago.
The congratulations of 1912 are extended to Dick Remsen in his recent election by vote of the alumni to membership in the Dartmouth Alumni Council. Dick is elected to take the place of Doc O'Connor, whose term had expired.
Announcement has been received of the admission to partnership of Glad Nead to the law firm of Warner, Stackpole, Bradlee, and Cabot, located at 84 State St., Boston.
A letter received from Heinie Urion gives the news that Jimmie Oneal is now a gentleman of leisure and located in California. Heinie was elected president of the Council of Phi Delta Theta at the convention at Nashville last December, having served on the General Council for the preceding five years as treasurer.
On April 1 there was born to Mr. and Mrs. Gary Garrison a son, William Wyckoff, and although somewhat tardy we welcome the new addition to the Dartmouth legacy. Jack Cronin is now located in New York at 420 Lexington Ave., residing at 443 First Ave., Pelham, N. Y.
Warren Bruner has been availing himself of the air service between here and Chicago. A forced landing on a recent trip hasn't discouraged Warren, and as his New York office is becoming a big factor we are glad to have him with us very frequently. Once more we extend congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Bruner, on the event of the birth of a daughter Imogene on March 28.
One of the happiest news events to be received was the announcement of the marriage of our own Johnny Baxter to Miss Dorothea Fraser on the 15th of June, at West Hartford, Conn. We extend our very best wishes to Mr. and Mrs. Baxter for their happiness.
Art Lowell has been heard from, and we now have his address as 214 Prospect St., S.E., Grand Rapids, Mich.
Nat Whitmore is now located at 10 Dana St., Cambridge, Mass.
We have a long, fine letter from Brian Robie, "Desert Rat Musician," written from the Red Elephant Mine in California. Brian is one of the Old Faithfuls, ever ready with his contributions to aid in the work of the College and class. There is no one to whom we can point with greater pride for loyalty and sacrifice.
Irv Putnam is now located at 7209 Piatt Ave., Cleveland. Tex Morris' new address is 1619 Myrtle Ave., San Diego, Cal.
Husky DeMerritt is in business with Libby McNeil Libby Company, at Honolulu, pineapple canning. His residence is 2521 Upper Manoa Rd., Honolulu, T. H.
Guy Lewis is in the contracting business in Lancaster, N. H.
E. Ross Millring is a consulting chemist at 200 Doremus Ave., Newark, N. J. At the Dartmouth-Syracuse track meet held in Hanover on May 4, Jim Erwin, Gardie Bullard, Roy Lewis, Doc O'Connor, and E. A. White were able to hold a small reunion on Memorial Field.
News has just been received from Dick Remsen that he has been successful once more in obtaining his quota at 100% for the Alumni Fund. Too much credit cannot be given to Dick for the wonderful work he has been doing, and he certainly deserves the thanks of every one of us for the manner in which he has each year maintained our position. The following message was dictated by Dick over the phone: "I want to thank each and every member who has been of help to me in raising our quota this year. It has been particularly a hard year with an increased amount of $500 over last year's quota, and without the help which so many of the class have given me we should not have reached the full amount. Not only can I assure you that every single contribution is most gratefully acknowledged in Hanover, but I personally appreciate the co-operation given to me in this important work."
