Class of 1927
As you all know, the Alumni Fund drive is now well under way, and Class Agent Cummings is busier than the proverbial one-armed paperhanger. With the organization Gus has worked out to assist him in the drive, '27 can't help but come out nearer the top than it ever has before. The following men have agreed to take charge of their respective territories: Dinty Gardner, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Delaware; Bill Abbott, Illinois; Al Clifton, California, Washington, and Oregon; Josh Davis, New York and New Jersey; Larry Duncan, New Hampshire; Blondy Lashar, Connecticut; Rog Braman, Rhode Island; Bob Funkhouser, Ohio: Bill Hoge, District of Columbia; Ed Watkins, Michigan, Kentucky, and Indiana; Charlie Huntley, Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico; and Rog Bury, Bill Spinney, and Doane Arnold, Massachusetts. Some of these district leaders have divided up their lists and have secured the assistance of others in their territories. For example, in New York and New Jersey, Josh Davis has helping him Carl Schuster, Lee Greenbaum, Les Kilmarx, Harry Wallace, Cebe Lee, Ken Ballantyne, Guy Bostwick, Sam Wormser, Brownie Freeman, Don McCall, Ed Fry, and Elmer Worth, besides several others whose names have not as yet come to us. These classmates are giving liberally of their time and effort. May your interest and loyalty equal theirs with the result that '27 will have the highest percentage of contributors that it has ever had.

Rumor has reached Boston from down in New York that Guy Bostwick is to be married some time early in June. Harry Dwyer is another Greater New Yorker who we understand is slated for early nuptials. Harry is now living in New Rochelle.

The monthly publication of the Dartmouth Association of Northern California, called "Squeaks from the Golden Gate," records that Roily Howes has been elected assistant secretary of that organization. Other members of that association from our class are Francis Bruguiere, A! Clifton, Bruce McKennan, and Jim Murray.
Bob Williamson, one of Boston's better printers, has recently turned some of his talents to politics. He has been elected to the Republican Committee of the town of Norwood, and has already become recognized as boss of his ward.
Don't forget that contribution to the Alumni Fund.
Secretary, 158 Waban Ave., Waban, Mass.
