CLASS OF 1927

With the present football season in full swing, the various games should provide opportunity for many '27 gatherings, impromptu or otherwise. Will each gathering kindly call the meeting to order long enough to elect a secretary and instruct him to forward the minutes, together with other details, to your scribe. The business depression seems to have seriously affected our supply of copy for this column. Nevertheless, here goes what we have.

The perpetual students at the various "Ambulance-chasing Academies" have finally been released. Among those who successfully passed the bar exams in Massachusetts are Shorty Oliver, Larry Duncan, John Rintels, Bob Voorhis, and Charlie Bartlett. Unfortunately we have not received the reports from New York, Chicago, and way stations, but undoubtedly there are many others who are also deserving of hearty congratulations for having successfully won their three-year legal battle.

Larry Duncan is now practicing in Concord, N. H., in the office of Robert W. Upton.

Charlie Bartlett is with the firm of Bartlett, Jennings, and Smith in Boston.

Don Colby is in New Haven, practicing law with the firm of Bristol and White.

Leaving the barristers for a while, we come to another profession, and find that Chuck Brewster has taken a church in Elkader, lowa.

News comes from out Albany way that on September the 20th, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas I. Van Antwerp announced that their daughter Cornelia had signed on the dotted line to marry one Joshua A. Davis of Albany, Kane, and almost any other point.

The other day we received an interesting piece of literature from the "Sunshine State." It was called the "Wrangler," the official gazetteer and bazoo of the San Francisco Alumni Association, and it was particularly trying to impress its readers with the fact that there is to be a Dartmouth round-up in that city at the time of the Stanford game. Any Twenty-sevener in the vicinity at that time should get a rousing welcome, for at the foot of the Bulletin was written, "Editor, A. T. Clifton, Jr."

Harry Wallace married Miss Elizabeth Mathews in Charleston, W. Va., on September 20. They are now living in Binghamton, N. Y., where Harry is driving a gang of West Virginian toughies to a bit of wild-cat drilling, for the Reserve Oil Corporation, a subsidiary of Columbia Gas and Electric. Harry claims to have struck gas in Ithaca, N. Y.—another Dartmouth victory.

Hughie McGrath is an insurance broker in the big town (New York) with the firm of McGrath and McGinness

Bob Dalrymple is also selling protection out in Syracuse, N. Y. Sheldon Yoorhis seems to be one of the native sons who has wearied of the "Sunshine State," for we hear that he is now located in New York. What he is doing, however, he fails to state.

Nat MacDougall is now living in Boston, and is working as a salesman, but he does not report whether it is bonds or insurance. The odds are fairly good that it is one or the other.

Gordon Smith is still free-lancing with the products of his pen in and about Greater Boston. We have seen several of his cartoons recently in the Boston Post.

This seems to bring to a close all the information we have either in writing or in our memory. There are still a goodly number who are unaccounted for. Even though your modesty forbids, there are many of us who would really like to know of your where- and doings, so how about loosening up a bit?

Also it is time to renew your subscription to this MAGAZINE, if you have not already done so. The letter from Gus Cummings enclosed in this copy will give you all the dope. Why not DO IT NOW!

Secretary, Waban, Mass.
