CLASS OF 1905
Plans for the twenty-fifth reunion of the class are assuming definite shape. Hitchcock Hall has been allotted to us for our class headquarters. We are well acquainted with Hitchcock, as we lodged there for our tenth and fifteenth reunions, in 1915 and 1920 respectively. In those years it was back of Crosby Hall and it is still, but now it should also be described as facing on Tuck Drive, where much of the new development of the College is taking place. A common room, although small, makes Hitchcock especially attractive.
Saturday and Sunday, June 14 and 15, are to be the big days. On Saturday a golf tournament is being arranged for the morning, the Class Day exercises and the President's reception come in the afternoon, and the evening will be crowded full by the class supper and the college dramatics, followed by a reception by the class to all the other classes in the Trophy Room of the gymnasium. A tea dance somewhere and a swimming party in the college pool are possibilities for that day which may appeal especially to the young people of the class.
On Sunday the day will be pretty fully occupied by the picnic at the Lake Tarleton Club, where we are to have our dinner at noon, sharing all the facilities of the Club with the class of 1910.
Monday is Alumni Day. The alumni luncheon will be held on Monday at noon, instead of on the following day, as has usually been the case heretofore. This is a change which ought to please the alumni, as it will enable many more to attend than usual. The only events planned especially for the class of 1905 on Monday are a memorial service in the morning and the class pictures immediately after.
The class has recently had quite a heavy attack of presidentitis, for instance: Dr. Halsey B. Loder is president of the Medical School Alumni Association; James A. Vaughan is president of the Northwest Alumni Association; Walter H. Lillard is president of the Alumni Associationof Southeastern Massachusetts; Lafayette R. Chamberlin is president of the Dartmouth Club of Boston; and Harold D. King is president of the Dartmouth Club of Baltimore.
Dr. Harry L. Watson was reappointed last November to the New Hampshire State Dental Board. This is Harry's sixth term as a member of the Board.
Eliott Frost's son, Granger, is a student at the Brooks School in North Andover, Mass.
Joseph M. Clough, Dartmouth '31, was taken on the spring baseball trip. He is a candidate for first base. William P. Clough, Jr., was one of the group of boys at Tabor Academy who were taken on a "land cruise" during the spring vacation, visiting Gettysburg and several other battlefields, Washington, Annapolis, Valley Forge, and New York. Besides being a scholar and winning a place on the cruise, young Bill won his letter in hockey last winter.
Henry K. Norton contributes the leading article in the Outlook and Independent of March 26, 1930, on the subject, "Birth Control or War?"
Major George Haven Putnam, the aged publisher, who died recently, was the father of Mrs. Robert C. Falconer.
Herford Elliott took a trip in February around the Caribbean Sea which included Trinidad and the northern end of South America.
Thomas F. Eastman is "lost" as far as the Secretary and the Alumni Records Office of the College are concerned. Mail has been returned from the State Line Generating Company, 72 West Adams St., Chicago, from 7919 Merrill Ave., Chicago, and from 1618 Columbia Ave., Chicago. Can anyone sug- gest another which will yield better results?
Secretary, 511 Sears Building, Boston
