APRIL 1930 Arthur P. Allen

Nate Sherman's particular pride is his herd of Guernseys on his farm in Pembroke, Mass. Give him a chance and he will tell you of his cow which took first honors in Class B for milk and butter fat.

I have just heard that Joe Davidson, who went West for his health about a year ago, is in the Fitzsimmons General Hospital in Denver, Colo. I have no further word about him except that he is improving. I hope to hear from him soon.

Hap Hinman's mention of Howard Bushway called for the following letter to Pineo:

My dear Young Man: I notice Happy Hinman mentioned my name in his letter to you. That is all right by me if it doesn't happen again.

I shall be at the reunion, and I expect to come with a cane and wheel chair. That is my reason for addressing you as above. You see, I became a grandfather last December, my daughter having married F. Ellsworth Baker of New York, a Harvard man, January, 1929.

So if you feel like getting up a fund to erect a fitting shaft or memorial to the first grandfather of the class I don't know as I would offer any serious objections.

It would be a nice way to start the reunion.

Sincerely yours,

(Signed) J. HOWAKD BUSHWAY

Don Bryant was elected president of the Pullman Trust and Savings Bank in January. Don has been with the bank since he finished with the Tuck School in 1911, with the exception of the time he spent with the army during the war. He started in as bookkeeper, and has been successively assistant cashier, cashier, and vice-president before being elected to the head of the bank.

Jim Everett sends in the following: "Crossing Broad Street last Monday, I ran across Mr. Royal W. Hyde and Mr. Richard Carpenter, who were having a very earnest discussion punctuated by suitable gestures. I learned that Royal is a 'bull' on the market, and Dick Carpenter a 'bear,' and as a neutral party, I was perfect as an impartial referee. Dick is with Ralph Leonard and Company, specialists in bank stocks, and is editing an investment paper which the firm sponsors. I tried to get him to promise to come back to the reunion, but he wouldn't definitely do so, although he said he would arrange to be there if he possibly could. I think Dick has changed less than any member of the class that I have run across yet."

Max Holmes is now making his home at 69 Edgar St., East Orange, N. J., and is operating the Holmes Oil Company, 1108 Broad St., Newark, N. J., being engaged in supplying fuel oil.

Jimmie Frame was reported in Boston late in January, and from all accounts is the same old Jimmie.

At the annual dinner of the Chicago Alumni Association 1910 was represented by Billy Williams, Mac Kendall, Don Bryant, Jack Dingle, Tom Heneage, and possibly by others whose attendance failed to register with our Chicago correspondent.

Knapp is manager of a big Sinclair Oil territory at Clearwater, Fla., where he has been for some years.

Beezle Parker is now with Perry, Shaw and Hepburn of 141 Milk St., Boston. Just now he is aiding with the restoration of the colonial town of Williamsburg, Va., spending about half his time there.

Al Doggett has taken over the work of the publication office and press service of Hampton Institute, but doesn't intend to let this interfere with his hunting and fishing.

Charlie Noone's boy, Roger, entered Davidson College, Davidson, N. C., this year, but hopes to transfer to Dartmouth next fall.

Chad is still in Montana, and runs a dude ranch during the summer. (This ad ought to be worth a rebate if I ever get that far.)

Robert Van N. Johnson passed away January 1, at a Chicago hospital. He had been practising dentistry in Chicago for some time.

Frank Morrissey is now living at 165 Warwick Road, Melrose, and is still teaching in Boston.

Ralph Paine was recently elected president-treasurer of the Howland-Hughes Company of Waterbury, after acting as treasurer and general manager for the past eight years.

The Boston alumni dinner was well attended, though Tenners were not quite as numerous as in some years past, unless they were scattered. Those noticed were Buck Allen, Jim Everett, Doc Foster, Art Lord, Don Bryant (a stray from Chicago), Nate Sherman, Jerry Groves, Else Jenness, Bones Jones, Dave Childs, Ben Hunt, Hal Sprague, Lou Wallace, Ed Shattuck, George Thurber, Ray Gorton, Les Wiggin, and Art Allen.

Indications are that the reunion is going to be very much a family affair, and there will be many wives and children present. Many of the class members will take this opportunity of initiating their older sons into the 1910 fellowship.
