CLASS OF 1903
Morley Knight Dunn with law offices at 580 Fifth Ave., New York, and home address at Rockville Center, N. Y., responded to a letter from me in a most interesting way. Mrs. Dunn, remembered most pleasantly at recent reunions, is still endeavoring to arouse "Mike" in time for the early morning train for New York besides furnishing inspiration for a family of four children. Knight, the oldest, is attending an agricultural institute, Tristram is at Kent School, Danny is still in the local high school, while Gene is at Miss Thomas's School in Connecticut. "Mike" reports having seen Ray Brown, "Bolz" French, and "Bucky" Lewers on occasions in New York, and the '03 delegation at the Yale game in New Haven.
Herbert L. Kelley, M.D., on the staff of the admiral commanding the U. S. Naval Forces at San Diego, Calif., reports a most enjoyable respite from active shore duty of several years. The sea duty will end in August this year, however, and "Kel" is in a state of uncertainty as to his next assignment. If the Navy Department will take our advice, and the Secretary of the Navy frequently sails a fast stepping boat in our harbor, "Kel" will come East.
Timotheus Lyman, or just plain Tim with an M.D. attached, reports in a happy vein from Sacramento, Calif., where surgery demands every spare moment away from Dartmouth gatherings at San Francisco and Los Angeles. Tim allowed that that Palo Alto gang had never shown any indications for the practice of his specialty, but he thought that possibly in another ten years there might be a different crop out there. Tim always was a great kidder.
Prof. Ernest Rutherford Groves, University of North Carolina, spoke at the Old South Forum in Boston on a Sunday afternoon in December last on the subject "Will the Family Disappear." His answer in brief, "There is no evidence to justify this belief, for the family has been and still is the best anchored of all our social institutions. It is not passing, but changing."
Stanwood Cobb has recently edited and published a collection of philosophical poems written by a Chinese friend, Wu Ming Fu. The collection is titled "Wisdom of Wu Ming Fu." Born in China, educated in several of the universities of this country, Wu Ming Fu developed a most remarkable philosophy of life. A lover of nature and of children and with unusual command of the English language, he was able to express himself in a manner rarely dreamed by most poets. The small book is published by Henry Holt and Company, New York, and should be of interest to all Potholeskers because of the masterful manner in which Stan has presented the collection of verse.
Secretary, 198 Humphrey St., Marblehead, Mass.
