CLASS OF 1911
David Hedges, our class baby a title which perhaps he will not now appreciateis entering college this fall after a successful year at Tabor Academy. He is spending the summer as a counselor at a boys' camp in Boulder, Colo.
Warren Agry has been advanced to the position of advertising manager of Good,Housekeeping. Speaking personally, however, this seems more like a compliment to his good wife, Marion.
Cap Caproni, the specialist in steel structure, has moved his office to 1044 Chapel St., New Haven, Conn. Cap was a house-party guest at the Theta Delta Chi house during spring house party week-end. Cap said it was a grand success.
Jake Lovejoy is now located at Naugatuck, Conn., where he is in charge of something or other in the United States Rubber Company. Further details concerning Jake will appear in a coming issue of the class report, when we have further chance to check up on him.
"Boli" Sherwin has returned to his old love, and is manager of the five and ten cent store, owned and controlled by P. W. Woolworth & Co., in Southbridge, Mass.
Rumor has it that Les Waldron has located in New York city, but again, further details are missing.
"Doc" Wyman, skinnier than ever, is returning to Honolulu this fall as instructor in drama at the University of Hawaii.
Sam Aronowitz claims that he is going to stick to baseball hereafter, as football seems to come at the wrong season. Perhaps the announcement has not been made that Sam is now president of the Albany Club of the Eastern League.
David and Anna Swain have just adopted a three-months-old son by the name of Richard P. Swain.
Robert G. Moffatt has recently sent in the news to the alumni office that he is a journalist with the Baltimore News, Baltimore, Md., in which city he resides at 1208 Linden Ave.
On the tag end of a letter Steve Rossiter writes: "How are you and have you got a goatee?" What in the world can he mean?
Our friend Art Gray writes as follows: "I have your note of the 29th, and this afternoon we are going to play a little golf with 'Motorcycle' Gibson. I feel like telling you about it now, because after he gets through with me I might not feel so much like it.
"I was down to the Charles River Country Club the other day, and was introduced to a fellow named Chet Butts. I had to be introduced because he had gained so much weight I didn't know him, and he was so unkind as to say in reply to me, that if he hadn't been introduced to me he was not so sure he would have known me either.
"They tell me that Pat Hurley is packing up his kit bag to spend the next few winters in the land of the 'midnight sun,' otherwise Alaska.
"Bowker, as near as I can make out, has returned to the soil. Nobody sees him unless they go down in back of his house and see him delving in his garden, always dressed to start the evening in white linens, which generally get dark with the sunset.
"If you are ever down this way don't forget we would really like to see you. Just think, in nineteen years you haven t found out where we live."
It is refreshing to have a bit of news from the Worcesterites.
This message has been received from the man himself: "Kay Nead has so far progressed on the road to health that he returned to work on April 23.''
Bob Sanderson was recently elected president of the American Steel and Heavy Hardware Association.
In addition to Alumni Councillors Wee Kimball and John Pearson, Jack Coggins and Ken Clark and Elizabeth seemed to be about the only 1911's to come back here for Commencement, to experience the preliminary thrill incidental to the reunion next year.
I was pleased recently to receive an invitation from R. J. Barnhardt, Roy's oldest boy, to his high school graduation in Lima, Ohio. Our congratulations to James, and to Mrs. Roy on her success in bringing up her large family.
An interesting letter from Al Wheeler describes an eventful visit to Bert Shurtleff. You will enjoy reading it at a later date. The reason for the announcement is that Al says he accepted this second-hand invitation given by Bert appearing in the columns of this MAGAZINE, and further, that Bert really meant it, and moreover, that Bert is doing a whale of a job in putting Salmon Palls on the map.
Our efficient Washington representative, reporting on 1911-ers who have passed through the city the last few months refers to Hugh Kenworthy, whom he accuses of motoring about the country trying various golf courses, on the theory that he is on a business trip. Also he referred to the fact that Walt and Tib Reilly made their annual visit on their way South, but were disappointed in finding Washington in winter temperature.
The June 25 issue of the Boston Herald carried a picture of Mrs. Robert Peary and her grandson, Edward Stafford, Jr., and stated that they were to spend the summer in Maine.
An earlier edition of the Boston Herald contained an excellent account of our friend, Dick Paul, sitting at the head of a table, surrounded by a bevy of good-looking ladies, the idea being that he was conferring on Legion convention matters in connection with the Legion's convention in Boston this fall.
Secretary, Hanover, N. H.
