CLASS OF 1929
Sherm Little is now attending the Yale Medical School. His home is a short distance outside of New York, and it is there that he spends his vacations. Mo Heath and Tom Maynard drop in to visit him there often.
Dick Black is going through the delightful process of getting up at 5:30 a.m. to take his job as a factory man. Learning the business from the bottom up, stuyding on the side.
Al Floyd is workingin a bank in Los Angeles, and really likes it.
We had a nice long letter from Hal Hirsch —all the way from Portland, Oregon. After graduation he and Gene Zagat took a trip to Norway, and went by boat to a point 150 miles north of the Arctic Circle. Later they visited Sweden and Denmark. The rest of the summer Hal spent in England, attending the Oxford summer session lectures, finding recreation in bicycling over England and in going over to Paris to see the sights. Here he encountered Walter Scott and Gus Wiedenmayer. He writes that he is now working hard forthe Hirsch-Weis Manufacturing Company, manufacturers of out-door work and sport clothing. He started at the bottom, and has now advanced to be the "service manager." Keep up the good work, Hal!
We learn through the Lawrence (Mass.) Tribune that another classmate is rapidly rising in the teacher-coach world. C. Edward Darling of the Woodbury High School faculty—our own Chuck—is coaching the baseball team this season. Good going and good luck!
We have heard unofficially that Joe O'Leary has been reported headed for Cubasent by the United Fruit Company. Watch your step, Joe, underneath the Cuban moon!
Ray Hedger helps us out with his letter of news. Ray has gone into the life insurance business in New York. While traveling over the pavements of the down-town districts, he has met up with Charley Harden, who is also walking—doing his best to sell bonds. Bob Ramage, Ray reports, is publicity agent with Van Nostrand, publisher of technical textbooks. More news about Supe Lockwood, the great traveler. It took Supe about two months to reach the scene of his job as assistant U. S. trade commissioner in Java. We hear he reached it on a stretcher, having contracted measles on the way. He recovered, however, and is working in Singapore under the supervision of another Dartmouth man. Ray would like to have them "Fill the bowl up, fill the bowl up," for us all. Ray finishes by telling us that Chan Bete was married on February 21 to Miss Anne Conant of Brookline. Good work, Chan, and much happiness to you and Anne. It seems that Chan is bringing home the bacon by working in an advertising concern.
Leonard Doob gives a complete account of himself. Last summer he spent in Munich and Innsbruck. This year he has been studying at Duke University at Durham, N. C., receiving his M.A. this June. On the side he has been teaching "some very pretty co-eds and some very stupid college boys the theoretical basis of psychology." (Watch out for those co-eds, Leonard.) Besides all this he is doing some newspaper work connected with the local sheet. No spare time for Leonard, by the looks of things. This summer he intends to bicycle along the Rhine, ending up in Frankfurt, Germany, where he expects to spend next year studying at the Institute of International Education.
Thursday, the 10th of April, was a great day for John Clements, for on that date he married Miss Mildred Chapman, at Chicago. Best wishes and happiness to you both.
Gene Davis writes a letter full of news. He reports that he has made tremendous strides in the brokerage business in New York city. Advanced to "associate ink-well filler inside of nine short months." Nice work, Gene—keep it up. Think what the next nine months must have in store for you. He sees Mo Heath, Dan Marx, and Fred Breithut occasionally. Ken Moran is married, according to Gene. Lucky Ken, and lucky girl, whoever she may be. Frank Williams is a competitor of Jean Patou!
