Announcement is made that the American Machine and Metals, Inc., has succeeded to the business of the Manhattan Electrical Supply Cos., Inc., and that Charles K. Woodbridge of Prince and Whitley, formerly president of the Dictaphone Corporation and of the Kelvinator Corporation, has become president and director of the American Machine and Metals, Inc.

A letter from William M. Sabin, Box 400, Bisbee, Arizona, announces that Bill has left Morenci, Arizona, where he has been for eleven years, and has returned to Bisbee. Bill is in the mining business, which he has followed ever since he left college. This month he leaves for Honolulu on a vacation, this being his third trip to the Hawaiian Islands. He extends an invitation to any 1904 men traveling in the vicinity of Bisbee to drop off and see him, and hopes that he may meet some of the men of the class in California at the time of the Stanford game.

The address of Harry H. Nichols is Lock Box 44, New London, N. H.

Gene Sewall, Ned Robinson, and the Secretary took a trip to Nova Scotia the early part of June, and, going in 40 miles from Yarmouth to a private fishing camp, enjoyed some very fine fishing.

The following sons of 1904 men have entered the freshman class at Dartmouth: Bradford S. Brennon, Daniel C. Colesworthy, Jr., and L. T. Herman.

Of further interest to '04 men is the fact that seven '05 sons are also in the same class, Adams, Clough, Day, Keady, Knibbs, McClary, Wilmot; and there are several from the other classes who were in college in our day.

The Secretary recently sent a letter to the class for detailed information, and announced a prize of an extra ticket to the HarvardDartmouth game to the one first answering the letter with all the desired information. The prize went to Ralph Sexton, who on the day he received the letter, boarded a train for Springfield and spent the evening with Mrs. Johnson and the Secretary, and gave a full account of himself and family. Two sons grace his family, and at least one of them will be able to get to the game—ticket will be awarded Friday night, October 24, when the class holds its annual round-up at the Parker House, starting at 6 P.M.

This morning, October 3, a letter was received from Captain B. H. Hinman of the U. S. Army, stationed in Washington in the office of the Judge Advocate General. Rosy's children are all in school, the daughter finishing high school this year and the two sons in the grade schools. He expects to be held in Washington until the summer of 1932, and invites classmates to call on him when in Washington.

Dave Austin's hotel at Waterville Valley, N. H., is a regular hang-out for 1904 men; Charron, Robinson, Willis, Gray, Rolfe, and others recently spent considerable time there, all improving their golf.

Charlie Davis writes that friend wife and himself celebrated on September 29 their 23rd wedding anniversary. Their older son, Charles, is taking up Y. M. C. A. physical training, and the younger is finishing high school this year. Charlie is one of the old stand-bys of the New England Telephone Company, and has been with them for nearly 25 years.

Matt Rock from New York writes that his son is now hard at work with a firm of expert accountants.

Three members of the class are now members of the Alumni Council: Woods, Turner, and Bartlett. A recent letter from Ned Bartlett announced he would be on the Coast at the time of the Harvard game, but on his trip West hoped to contact a number of the class.

Secretary, 1387 Main St., Springfield, Mass.
