FEBRUARY 1930 Natt W. Emerson

Ed Storrs is no longer connnected with Rand, McNally. He resigned his position last spring. Ed was in Hanover for a time during the summer, but returned later to Chicago. He is treasurer of his church, and the ties of many years keep him in that city. Ed is living very comfortably on his income, and is enjoying a leisure which very many of us would like to have.

Bradlee Rich is getting along very well with the rest cure which he is taking in Providence under the guidance of Art Ruggles. Arnold is going through the training course at Jordan Marsh, while staying at home taking care of his mother. We expect soon to see Bradlee back on the job, but not working quite so strenuously as he has in the past.

Paul G. Redington has been getting into the lime-light quite regularly in connection with his responsibilities as head of one of the most important departments in Washington. His picture appeared in many of the metropolitan newspapers in connection with his recommendations for the coming year. If any of the children of 1900 are interested in birds and game or fishing, Paul has some very interesting bulletins which he would be willing to send them.

The Secretary received a copy of the '99 class report, which is right up to the usual standard to which that class has attained. We appreciate the very kindly and generous reference to the 1900 Outing Club house. We are pleased indeed that the class of '99 used it during their reunion and found it so delightful.

Charlie Proctor's older boy, Charles, is in New York city qualifying for the aviation business. The first step is that of learning to fly, and we expect very soon to hear that he has qualified and has his license.

Judge Davis's second boy, Bob, is a senior at Exeter and expects to enter Dartmouth in the fall. His brother, John, will be a senior.

Clarence McDavitt, senior, is very active in Boy Scout work in the city of Newton. He is one of the executive officers of the Norumbega Council of Scouts and is doing a very useful bit of work.

Harry Hutchins has been in New Haven a great deal during the fall. It is rather significant that he should be active there at the time when Dartmouth played Yale.

Walter Rankin is making some very exhaustive plans for the organization of our thirtieth reunion. This is just an advance notice to put this event down on your calendar as one which you cannot possibly afford to miss.

An announcement was received of the marriage of Edith Frances Grassie to Guy Andrews Ham, Jr., which took place on Tuesday, October 15, 1929, at Millerton, N. Y. So the second generation of the Guy Andrews Ham family is settled and married. We announced earlier in the year the marriage of the oldest daughter, Geraldine.

Mr. and Mrs. Robert Jackson of Concord, N. H., have announced the engagement of their daughter, Sarah Branch, to Mr. John Clark Coonley, Harvard '28. Mr. Coonley is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Coonley of Milton, Mass.

Roger Dunlap seems to be having a wonderful time in Lancaster. He is president of the Kiwanis Club, chancellor commander of the Knights of Pythias, chairman of the DeMolay Advisory Council, and active in other social orders. The membership of his church has almost doubled, which is surely quite an accomplishment in a town of 2000. Roger has two grandsons, Roger and John. His younger daughter, Catherine, is a freshman at the University of New Hampshire. His son-in-law is assistant manager of a Kresge store in Quincy, Mass. He is a Dartmouth '24 man.

Mr. and Mrs. Edgar R. Cate of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, have announced the engagement of their daughter Dorothea to Andrew M. Rankin of Boston. Somehow or other, we sense the influence of our twenty-fifth reunion.

Secretary, 10 State St., Boston
