The Survey Graphic for May contains an illuminating article on "Psychoanalysis and Humankind" by Dr. Martin W. Peck. We suspect this doctor belongs to us.

Roy Hatch's son, Winslow R. Hatch, was awarded one of the two Morrill Allen Gallagher fellowships at Dartmouth. These fellowships are the most esteemed prizes which the College can give. They are awarded seniors. Young Hatch is president of the Outing Club. Roy's freshman son brought home the "all-around" medal from the spring interclass meet, having won four firsts. Rumor sayeth that father Hatch is much puffed up.

A merger of the Standard Steel Car Company and the Osgood Bradley Car Company under control of Pullman Incorporated, involving a capital and surplus of $400,000,000, has been consummated, and J. Frank Drake, president of the Standard Steel Car Company, becomes chairman of the board of Pullman Incorporated. The Springfield Republican of December 28, in giving an account of the projected merger, gives this history of the proposed chairman of the board:

"James Frank Drake, proposed chairman of the board of Pullman Incorporated, was educated in the public schools of Pittsfield, and later graduated from Dartmouth College. His first business connection was that of secretary of the Board of Trade of this city. After approximately five years in this position, he became secretary of the Phelps Publishing Company of this city, and in 1914 was made treasurer and a director of the company. During his fifteen years' residence in Springfield Mr. Drake became affiliated with several important business interests in executive and directorial capacities, covering both the industrial and realty fields. A keen interest in civic and political affairs brought Mr. Drake the election in 1907 to the Common Council on the Republican ticket. This post he held for five years, and in the election of 1910, after nomination by both the Republican and Democratic parties, he was chosen president of the Common Council. Although the youngest member of that body, Mr. Drake was again chosen president both in 1911 and 1912. During his terms of office in the Council, Mr. Drake served on many of the most important committees of that body. In addition to his business and civic interests in this city, Mr. Drake was an active figure in the world of sports. For two successive years, 1905 and 1906, he managed the Dartmouth- Brown football games played in Springfield. Records of the Springfield Country Club show that Mr. Drake was an active member of that organization and a representative of the club on its tennis team."
