Class of 1915
Thus far the election returns have brought cheer to friends of Russell, D. Chase, Republican senator-elect to the Massachusetts Senate from Springfield, and to William N. Rogers, Democratic congressman-elect from New Hampshire. The class of 1915 extends hearty congratulations to them both.
Added honors have come to the class as set forth in the November issue of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE on page 57. One of our number has been recalled as the "Friendliest Boy in Town" just 25 years ago. If you visit Hanover today, you will find Jack Bowler has not changed in this respect, although he is 25 years older now.
Treasurer Tap reports news and class dues are scarce. It is hoped that the gentle reader will heed Tap's hint.
Dan Waugh made the headline in too many Jap papers a few weeks ago when he was accused of photographic espionage. Dan soon explained satisfactorily that he had taken pictures for advertising purposes, and quite as much to the advantage of the city of Tokyo as to the National City Bank of New York, for which he works.
Johnnie (R. C.) Johnson reports from San Antonio, Texas, that he is still messing around the oil game with all the optimism of the campus dogs around Commencement time. He enclosed two pictures which caught Phil Murdock at WORK, once as a derrick man and again as the operator of a very perverse tractor. These will be on exhibit at the next official class reunion and later will be turned over to RIPLEY!
George B. Young has formed a new law firm at 1430 Union Trust Building, Cleveland, under the name of Belden, Young, and Veach.
Bags Wanamaker is going to send his boy back East to Hanover next fall. This will put 1915 and also Mishawaka, Ind., on the Hanover map, we predict.
Again congratulations are extended to the Sutcliffes. After sponsoring three daughters, Adam is especially proud to announce this time, "It's a BOY."
The following is clipped from the San Francisco News:
"Colin Livingston, two-year-old son ofMr. and Mrs. Allan Livingston, 2730 BakerSt., won second national honors in a children's photograph contest under the auspices of 140 of the nation's leading department stores. More than 500 SanFrancisco children were entered in the localcontest, sponsored by the Emporium, inwhich Colin emerged with FIRST honors."
A look at the photo of Colin associated with the above item makes us proud of pur former class president. Is he already signed up for Dartmouth, Al?
From a former class secretary and one of his former roommates most of the following news of the Harvard game has been received. From these three initials both names should be guessed, A. W. B. Among those '15ers seen at the game were Norv and Mrs. Milmore with their two future football "Greats," Pete Winship (not unduly slim), the brothers-in-law Duze Lounsberry and Stu Hill and their sister-wives, Herb and Mrs. Potter (Herb was armed with a revolver and a flashlight, presumably tools needed in the successful operation of his restaurant, the gun to shoot holes in the Swiss cheese and the flashlight to make the pie crusts light), Bill and Marion Huntress, Art and Polly Williams, Casey Jones, Al Sherman, Dale Barker, George Martin, Johnny Pendleton, PeeWee Burnett, Russ Livermore, Bob Bigelow, Earl Clough, and Hal Corwin. Kike Richardson was heard telling the world that Halfback Jack Hill, who made the touchdown, hails from Littleton, N. H., and not Lisbon or any other place, Nashua Jack Warren kept his record for attendance 100%. Russ Rice and Speed Henderson were there too. The genial class treasurer was very much in evidence with two excellent chaperons, Mrs. Taplin and Mrs. Mason, while Jack claims he was South on business—an unusual reason in these times.
Augie Atwood was seen recently hitching along Stuart St., Boston on one and a half legs—the half leg being stiff. Augie tells of demonstrating to son John how football should be played. He says the net result was one watery knee and a resolve to let young America find out for themselves. Let this be a lesson to other has-been athletes that they are not as limber as they used to be.
Our ex-president Al Priddy has been appointed vice-chairman of the Share-the-Work Committee of Boston, a signal honor, judging from the list of other prominent men who make up the committee.
We hear that Dick Wyman runs a very prosperous nursery in Framingham, Mass., and is also very active in civic affairs there. Why don't you speak for yourself, Dick?
Turk Turner has taken on so much weight that he would be eligible to join any fat men's club in America. He is physically equal to at least two of the Turks we knew in college. He may know his accounting but not his calories. President Ray King says that he watches his ounces by regular jounces (should I say jaunts) on horseback. He has retained perfect youthful physical proportions through this simple method and recommends it to others.
Secretary, 18 So. Court St., Woodsville, N. H.
