CLASS of 1912

With this first issue of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE for the new year we should have a fine, long column of news accumulated during the summer months. Unfortunately this is not the case, and all we can hope for is more cooperation in the future in this respect.

We had to read all through a long article in a recent issue of the Saturday Evening Post, to learn that George Hoban is president of the Maryland Football Referees Association.

It took the front page of the New York Times to tell us that Leslie Snow was elected one of the new vice-presidents of the new Chase National Bank merger.

It took a special issue of the Garden City Blow Out to advise us that Dick Remsen's drive of a new golf ball won a driving contest at Cherry Valley, followed by the further success of victory with his oldest boy in a father and sons tournament.

Thanks to Connie Snow we are all glad to know that Doc Burnham has recovered from a quite serious operation last June at the Lebanon hospital.

Through the Alumni Records at Hanover we are advised of several changes in address namely: Nat Whitmore with the Fred W. Mears Heel Co., Auburn, N. Y.; Pat Lovell now with Marshall Field at 200 Madison Ave., New York; Carl Rollins still with N. W. Ayer, but now located at 500 Fifth Ave., New York and living at 77 Stuart Place, Manhasset, L. I.; Randy Burns at 20 N. Broadway, White Plains, N. Y.; Phil Drake at 405 W. Castle Place, New Rochelle, N. Y.; and Hal Harman at the Central Y.M.C.A., 55 Hanson Place, Brooklyn, N. Y.

We had the pleasure of a personal visit from Shep Shepard, visiting New York from Chicago.

One of the best first aids to struggling secretaries is the old stand-by, Warren Bruner. Never too busy to be thoughtful of others and ready to help. Warren has just completed a fine job in office layout work right in the Secretary's own office. With absolutely no space to work with, and furniture that only had sentiment to recommend it, his firm, Bruner and Simmons of New York and Chicago, have so rearranged and redecorated the offices of the class of 1912 as to invite the most critical inspection. Laying out the offices of some of the largest banks, all of the layouts of the new Board of Trade Building in Chicago, and thousands of large and small offices have put Warren in a class by himself. You can learn all about the mysteries of his business by reading a series of articles he is writing for the New York Real Estate Board.

As you greet each other at the football games, remember that some of the boys in other sections of the country will be listening in through this column, and they won't be able to hear a word unless you speak up.

Secretary, 1452 Broadway, New York
