CLASS OF 1910

Prof. Andy is working hard with 1910's Alumni Fund quota—it is tough, tough, tough—but he is making progress—his assistants and Tenners are backing him upmuch more will have to be done to raise our quota of $5,135—which is the Greatest of Any Class—and about $5OO greater than that of our nearest competitor, 1911—because our class was the largest of all time up to our date and for a few years afterwards-Bill Minsch and A 1 Dickerson put out a bulletin to the agents explaining X plus G plus 1910 minus the World Debt equals $5,135—darned if I could follow it throughbut Bill used to be O. K. when he was in the bookstore with Bill Garby a coupla hundred years ago and A 1 Dickerson, not long out of college, is too young to be otherwise—so 1910's QUOTA IS $5,135—Believe It or Not—Take It or Leave It—and old 1910 is TAKING IT—and RAISING IT, TOO.

Andy has the following men assisting the agents—"Wilk" out in that "Here I Come" state—Minnesota Nick—U. S. Rubber Norton—Alderman Meredith—Deacon Fosterand, well, if I gave the next man all of the titles he rates, the ALUMNI MAGAZINE would carry a Bankart supplement.

If any Tenner can excape this crew plus Prof. Andy and his sub-agents—Gay Gleason, Jim Nourse, Ray Seymour, Harry Mitchell, Dave Johnson, Lew Williams, and Guy Spokesfield—he is JUST PLAIN GOOD.

No one but a bloated stockholder like Pipestone Ben would discover that "Bones" Jones—candy-iteer—signs the notices of "Annual Stockholders Meeting of Frank G. Shattuck Cos. Owning and Operating Schrafft's" as "Hazen W. Jones, Clerk."

Karl Maerker, district manager of the A. T. & T. subsidiary at Pittsburgh, is president of the Pittsburgh Kiwanis Club, which is no mean honor in itself. It shows that Karl must be a real lad among his fellow citizens.

Just received a notice from Cuba this morning that Allan Fowler is changing his address from Apartado 89, Chaparra, Cuba, to Halesite, Long Island, N. Y. It looks as though Allan had received a good break which is bringing him back to the states again.

That good Tenner, Art Lord, sent me a clipping from the Newton Graphic, stating that "Buck" Allen, wife, and son Douglas are on a month's cruise to the West Indies and South America. "Buck" has been very successful at the Rivers School in Brooklinealso with his camp at Wiscasset, Me., which is known as "Camp Chewonki—The Salt Water Camp for Boys from 8 to 15." It opens the 17th season on July 1.

Everett Robinson spent a week's vacation at the Middlebury Inn in Middlebury, Vt., so as to enjoy the delights of a Vermont winter.

Howard Bushway, semi-retired business man and one of those few "Babsonicals," who foresaw the crash and unloaded the major portion of his holdings in his business in 1929, is spending considerable time trying to get his two-year-old grandson to select Dartmouth instead of Harvard, where the boy's dad went. Howard's one year with us meant fully as much to him as four years did to others. He left college, got married, and worked his way up through to a real success with his own company—the Bushway Ice Cream Company. Howard says that you get just about as much out of life as you put into it.

Homer Mills who was also with us freshman year, is associated with Howard.

Rev. Louis Nissen is a man with a real mission in life. During the past few months we have carried on a delightful correspondence—and it is our opinion that more than one Tenner would obtain real enjoyment from a visit with Louis, who lives in Pittsfield, Mass.

John Vander Pyl is now living at Moline, Ill., where he is on the executive staff of the Troy Laundry Machinery Cos. Andy Scarlett will miss his assistance with the Alumni Fund work.

Attorney Tommy Leonard, school comitteeman and chairman of the sub-committee on athletics at Nashua, N. H., is busy trying to solve a knotty problem. During the 1930 football season Nashua High athletes ran up doctors' bills of over $l,OOO, because of an epidemic of injuries. Parents and the school could not stand the expense, so football was doomed. To save the game last fall a citizen came forward and bought a policy insuring every member of the squad against injury. Oddly enough, the injuries were few, and it is said that the insurance company made a little money. Decreased attendance has cut revenues. No school funds are legally available for treating injuries. This problem interests more than one school. We understand that in the Middle West the state athletic associations take out blanket policies, which cost around 50 cents per member of the squad.

Word has just been received from Mrs. Williams that Billy has just been through a long illness and is now convalescing after five weeks spent in the Presbyterian Hospital at Chicago. The sympathy of the entire class goes to the chairman of our Twentyfifth Committee—and Billy will have the kindly thoughts of Tenners when they learn of his sickness.

Bill Grant has resigned his position with the F. M. Hoyt Shoe Corp., and is now seeking a new connection. Bill sure knows the shoe business.

Bob Woodcock and Harold Benjamin have called on Nick Carter a couple of times this winter. "Bard" and Nick also get together occasionally.

Walter Price has completed his three years' study of the technique of tone production with Mr. Oscar Seagle and is now ready to stand alone. Walter is quite elated. His big job now is to get started through the right channels.

Charlie Noone, Chattanooga lawyer of note, always puts interesting thoughts in his letters. A recent one contained: "Life, as its cycle moves on and on, presents a never ending responsibility. As we pass each milestone, we are prone to feel our burdens growing increasingly greater. We look askance at our neighbor's pasture—it always looks greener, but he has his burdens and other, if not the same, responsibilities. Did you ever think how the wind blowing in one direction could make two boats sail to opposite ports? A little skill and hard application will pilot us as we voyage through life over many rough places. The ultimate goal is best attained through courage."

We have maintained contacts with Joe Davidson over the past year or so. He is improving in health. Joe has a host of friends and well-wishers in the class who would rejoice at seeing him with us in Hanover for the next reunion.

When Johnny Hobbs is not stepping ahead in real estate or golf or Rotary or something else, he is hitting a fast pace in military affairs. As a result of his army work, which started with the training course at Dartmouth in 1917, he has been promoted recently to a captaincy in the Officers' Reserve Corps.

We hear that Jack Bates, erstwhile of Somersworth, N. H., and Dartmouth College, is one of the "big shots" in Oklahomawealthy—from oil—semi-retired—raises polo ponies in Texas—is the best polo player west of the Mississippi—and a whole lot of other titles and ranks. BUT as a correspondent he is a fine oil magnate—so the whole class claims.

Gay Gleason and Charlie Bardwell called on "Easty" in Milwaukee recently, but it so happened that our former secretary was in Cleveland chewing the fat with "Cheever" Comey at the time. "Easty" reports "Cheever" as a solid citizen interested in church work and school life, which are so vital in a family raising program.

It is well for Tenners to make plans to attend the annual fall round-up, which will be held undoubtedly at time of the Harvard game according to century-old custom. During the fall many distant Tenners visit Hanover and Boston. A bit of forward planning on their part will give them an opportunity to be welcomed into a group of fifty or more Tenners—and have a most enjoyable evening of reuning.

Art Bucknam, when not acting as principal of the Walsh School in Waterbury, Conn., interviews boys who desire to enter Dartmouth. Strangely enough and with no little sentiment, he had to interview Ralph Paine's son, who is preparing to enter the freshman class this fall. Some day some alumnus will have to do the same job on Art's young son. It is just about the height of alumni ambition to have a son enter the College—and 1910 is about to enter the period when it will have a very substantial representation on the College roster.

25 YEARS AGO

Dartmouth closed the most successful spring baseball trip in its history—winning every game—with no set-ups, as you will see.

Washington and Lee was defeated in the first game of the season 9-3—line-up was "Dutch" Schildmiller, lb; Ken Merritt, rf; Harry McDevitt, cf; Percy Skillin, If; George Grebenstein, 3b; "Kid" Richardson, ss; Walter Norton, 2b; "Micky" McLane, c; "Skinny" Beckett, p; Shoppelry, c; Mc-Duffee allowing a hit—Schildmiller and Mc-Devitt connected for three hits each while Grebenstein and Richardson got two each.

Univ. of Virginia was taken for a ride in the next game 4-3, largely through Capt. Skillin's effective pitching—allowing only 5 hits. Ken Merritt got two hits out of Dartmouth's eight. Virginia had bases full with none out in the seventh. Two runs scored before the side was retired. Line-up was same as in first game, excepting Smith, who replaced Skillin in left field.

The next day, April 11, Annapolis was trimmed 8-2, with Johnny Glaze and Sid Hazelton allowing only five hits between them. Kid Richardson made three hits, while "Dutch" Schildmiller, Ken Merritt, Harry McDevitt, and Capt. Skillin got two each. The feature play was a triple play started by Walter Norton catching a line drive with one hand, throwing to Schildmiller, who returned it to Richardson in time to get the third man. Line-up was same, with Porter Smith and Grebenstein covering third, and "Mickie" McLane and Shoppelry catching.

On April 12 Georgetown was defeated 4-3—the game being featured by the cool pitching of "Skinny" Beckett, who allowed six hits—same number being made by Dartmouth. McLane caught the game, and Capt. Skillin played left field.

Dartmouth opened the home season with a 7-0 victory over Norwich on April 22 McDuffee pitching a strong game, allowing but two hits. Kid Richardson featured the game with a home run and a three-bagger. Smith played third and Shoppelry caught.

Mass. Aggies were taken into camp 4-0 on a wet field—the game being played on the Campus. Johnny Glaze pitched a strong game, allowing two hits. Dartmouth made five hits—two of which were by Schildmiller. The line-up was Schildmiller, lb; Merritt, rf; McDevitt, cf; Skillin, If; Grebenstein, 3b; Richardson, ss; McLane, c; Norton, 2b; Glaze, p.

College was settling down after the spring vacation—Hanover mud was drying up-Tommy Leonard elected captain of freshman baseball—William Jennings Bryan addressed the College on "Public Speaking"—Dartmouth was dropped by Princeton from the football schedule—the Brown baseball affair will be in the next issue—The Dartmouth claims that alcove bedrooms are "unsanitary"—also darn cold, as we can testify after a year in New Hubbard—it commented on "Dartmouth undergraduates are prone to lament the fact that the College is so remote from civilization and society"—and "Place Dartmouth in or near a large city and whatever the spirit, it would not be the present Dartmouth spirit; whatever the alumni, they would not be the alumni they are now."—1910's literary genius is showing up through "For Sake of Her" by W. B. Knapp and "The Deputy" by Russ Palmer in the Dartmouth Magazine—Hamp Howe's spring hoss business fell off because of muddy roads —"Lefty" West says that if Tenners knew as much then as they know now, it would have been a cinch to pass even Eric, the Red—and no one attempted to label 1910 as morons 25 years ago—John Bredemus, pole-vaulter, who vaulted to Princeton at end of freshman year, always had an audience when he threw footballs, because in those days any man who could throw one as far as a man could kick was a novelty—and speaking of football prompts us to ask outof-season who will ever forget the way Heinie Bullock used to run through, over and under the varsity when he played for the second team—1910 learned who trained Arthur Duffy.
