CLASS of 1903
Judge Wm. W. Grant was last June elected to the board of trustees as alumni trustee. During the full term on the Alumni Council "Babe" had done much in the Council and among the Western Central associations. The class is proud of the honor which has been given him. At the alumni dinner at Commencement "Babe" delivered a speech in behalf of the parents of the graduates (Wm. W. 3d graduating), which called forth great applause.
A letter from Leigh W. Kimball shows most decisively that "Kimmie" still has a most intimate interest in Dartmouth and all her "doings." Kimmie is teaching at Rutgers College in the department of Romance languages. He reports his family well and his youngest daughter—13 years—"keeps herself almost as well informed about the Big Green Team as the average undergraduate."
John Crowell, soil of Jack, has written your Secretary a mighty fine letter, and has promised to come on to our 30th reunion in 1933. Jack has graduated from the law school and is about to enter upon the practise of law in some place as yet undetermined. John's letter read like a "chip from the old block," and I know we shall all enjoy association with Jack's boy. John's address is 7639 Eastlake Terrace, Chicago, 111.
"Meat" Hanlon, "Bucky" Lewers, John McElroy and Ned Kenerson enjoyed a foursome on the links at Hanover during the commencement of June. The last named with his unerring drives down the fairways showed up the golf of all the others, though "Meat" claims an alibi. Still "Meat" does love those straight shots of Kennie's.
Dr. Laurence Swan and his family enjoyed their vacation period at Konomo Point, Essex, Mass., where Laurence owns a summer home. Your Secretary dropped in on Laurie one evening and found him cleaning his pistols, with which he claims to shoot with a considerable degree of accuracy. Laurie says he spends his spare time from surgery at this sport, and judging from the number and variety of short arms in his arsenal he should be able to defend Konomo Point against any force.
"Pip" Howard took an enforced vacation in the Brockton Hospital (Mass.) this summer for a period of three weeks, due to an insect bite with an infection sequence. "Pip" had a pretty rough time of it for a while, but came through nicely and is once more engaged in his building work. Congratulations, "Pip," on the successful turn of events, from the whole class.
Charlotte and Ned Kenerson are reported as having made a 2000-mile automobile trip through Canada this summer. Here's hoping we shall hear about some of the 'O3 boys up in that part of the British Empire when we get Ned for a fifteen-minute talk this fall.
Dr. Lewis H. Haney, director of the Bureau of Business Research, New York University, has attained to a position of note as economist, financial writer and adviser, and practical forecaster. The New York Times, January 11, 1931, speaks of him as an outand-out forecaster. The Evening Journal (N. Y.) has this summer printed a series of articles by him written while making a tour of this country, giving an unbiased survey of business conditions as they actually are. A new book, "Business Forecasts," published by Ginn and Company, has received wide commendation. The following data were gleaned from the book pertaining to the record of Haney:
"Lewis H. Haney, Director of Bureau of Business Research, New York University; author of "Business Organization and Combination," "The Business of Railway Transportation," and "History of Economic Thought"; financial writer for the New York Evening Journal; editor of the Textile WorldAnalyst; regular contributor to the Iron Age; economic expert for the National Association of Purchasing Agents; and adviser to several investment trusts."
