JUNE 1932 IT'S OUR FIFTEENTH WAH HOO! WAH HOOU
And the gang in New York have already had a couple of meetings and are getting out maps and diagrams of the best routes to Hanover in June. The 'l7 Club of the Metropolis have assumed all details for planning the dance, and in addition will manage and stage a stupendous revue and vodvil spectacle in the Nugget. Chuck Gilmore reports most extraordinary talent being engaged. They meet again on May 2, and all 'l7ers within reach of the New York Dartmouth Club on that evening are most cordially invited.
Also down in Philly a small but "selective process" group are putting in the finishing touches on a banquet program that will prove the final push around the corner of hard times.
Not to be outdone, the Boston gang are bearing down on a picnic program. The committee there objects to calling it a mere picnic, however, and assert it is to be a sixring athletic and non-athletic CIRCUSRODEO MEET.
WALTERS MAKES 'EM OVER
There was an article in the Boston Transcript this spring giving the details of how our Doc Walters was saving kidneys. I don't mean he's saving them as souvenirs; but fixing them up so that the original owner can keep on carrying them comfortably right where they belong. It seems that before this type of surgery was developed, if one of these organs went bad it usually had to be removed. This of course left you with only one kidney, and if anything happened to that—why, there you weren't. Now if you have one that is good and one that is a bit sickly, Doc can remodel the bad one, and you still have some velvet to work on.
ROBIE—A BIT SCOTCH
Through devious channels we received a copy of a recent issue of the School ArtsMagazine, containing an article by one E. E. Robie. This article described how two or three rooms in Bud's school in Stamford, Conn., were entirely bare and unfinished. Thereupon he goes to the head of the art department in the schools and persuades him to put his advanced pupils at work on the walls of these rooms. Result—two welldecorated rooms and no increase in the budget for the city of Stamford. I'll bet Bud wangled it to get a couple of rooms in his house done at the same time.
DARTMOUTH—AND 1917
During the days when Dartmouth was growing and money rolling in, '17 didn't write a very good record of being back of the College financially. Now, when there is a real emergency, let's show that we aren't laying down. Every man in the class can chip in at least a dollar to the Alumni Fund.
