CLASS of 1918
On the occasion of the hilarious Yale game at New Haven one caught glimpses of such Eighteeners as Curt Glover, Louie Lee, Dave Skinner, Ernie Earley, Dutch Oppenheim, Derosier, Ev Young, Jay LeFevre, Wart McElwain, and others whose presence was totally ignored when touchdowns began to come fast and furious.
We have it on the authority of Messrs. Gottschaldt and Christgau that at the Harvard game a week later were to be found such shining lights as Eddie Emerson, Ed Ferguson, Tom Proctor, Dick Cooley, Orrin Hart, Hort Chandler, Harvey Hood, Strout, Parker Poole, and other eminent Bostonians.
At the Dartmouth Club in New York the other night nine leading hot-air artists of the class were gathered for the first 1918 feast of the season. There was Al Gottschaldt, fresh from the South to attend the Harvard game; Chris Christgau, on his monthly night off from the family; Dave Skinner, champion bone roller; the omnipresent Wart McElwain; Walter Ross, from the far reaches of Long Island; Syl Morey, the Blimp; Red Wilson, the old counselor; Louie Lee, the expert on relations; and the inactive secretary, Fritz Cassebeer himself.
After the usual exchange of compliments and dissection of each other's shortcomings, Louie Lee started a dissertation to the effect that Jack Storrs has the most likely looking and best behaved son in the class. This brought exceptions galore, and when the party threatened to break up after a heated discussion of the relative merits of various offsprings, A 1 Gottschaldt quickly changed the subject to possessions, and was heard naively to remark that he at least had something that no other 'lBer could duplicate, namely,—a complete file of all the issues of The Dartmouth during the years of 1914-18. And what do you think of that?
One hears that Dick Holton is now comptroller of the East New York Savings Bank.That Ru Hesse is now the proud father of another daughter, Barbara, born on October 13 and all of nine pounds.-—That DustyRhodes is in New York with the theatre. That George Stoddard was East recently on his annual pilgrimage from San Francisco looking over the Eastern market for his cream separators.—That Johnnie Cunningham representing E. A. Pierce Cos. in Denver can be miraculously reached from any point in tfie U. S. over his company's extensive wire network.
Walt Wiley writes that he and his tribe have returned to the U. S. after seven years in Turkey. He says they went out as two and have come back as five,—two big and three little. Walt is now to be reached at 25 Fenwick St., Somerville, Mass., and would welcome the sight of any Eighteener, not having talked to any in so many years. He remarks that it is a great sensation to be back here after Turkey, but feels that there's more motion than real living in the U. S.
