Dave Johnson and wife visited Hanover in June .... Dave's sons, Dave Jr. and Blake, are senior and junior, respectively, in College this year, which means that the Johnsons will be right in Hanover for the reunion .... Blake, who has been active in Dartmouth dramatics, was elected to Green Key .... Dave likes to browse among the ALUMNI MAGAZINES time and again, and follow the various Tenners in their activities .... which is a very common practice among us all ... . the MAGAZINE establishes and maintains contacts which can be had in no other way in a widely scattered group of men .... it fills a very satisfying position in Dartmouth lives.
But we sure cannot run this dog-gone column without your help .... we've got to have news, and more news, for the next eight issues .... it's the only thing which will cool our fevered brow along about the first of each month .... so unbend your salary wings, and send your scrawl, scratch, or mark to us.
"Beezle" Parker is having the splendid privilege of spending several months in Hanover as federal inspector of the PWA projects in that district .... Ralph Paine and wife paid us a nice call recently . . . . "Caesar" Young's son Jim did a great job pitching for Brooklyn Poly Prep during the spring .... we hope that he will be pitching for Dartmouth in a couple of years .... "Caesar" maintains his interest in Dartmouth .... young Bruce, who pitched for the freshmen this year, is a Poly Prep boy, and we have heard of a nice athlete, Hull, entering from there this fall .... one of the big events in New * England Tenner circles is the return of Julius Warren to his native state . . . . Julius was selected from a horde of educators for the Newton, Mass., superintendent of schools, and is now settled with his family in their new home .... he has had a long line of educational successes since graduation, including service in the high schools at Rutland, Schenectady, Brockton, Brattleboro, Gloversville and Springfield, and seven years as superintendent of the Lakewood, Ohio, schools .... he is recognized as one of the outstanding men in school administration . . . . another classmate has received fitting recognition of his ability, Harold Washburn having been promoted to the rank of full professorship in French at Dartmouth, where he has conducted very popular courses for some years .... Tom Leonard, the Grand Old Man of the Golf Links, got out his wheel chair and followed a few tournaments this season .... his perserverance was pretty good, Tommy always using whatever shots were necessary to sink his putts .... but lo and behold, the G. O. M. had to go and sink himself a hole in one, and acquire fame .... don't worry, you guys, he'll tell us all about it at the 25th next June .... Walter Norton comments, "Lucky stiff! I can trimhim at golf, and Geo. Underwood can takehim on at skiing, and if George breaks aski, Lennie McClintock will finish the job." .... and that's not all for the Leonards of Nashua .... young Thomas J. Jr. shot a 76 in the N. H. Junior Golf Tournament!
Nate Sherman, as general passenger agent of Hen Teague's Mt. Washington Cog Railway, handled a large number of customers this season .... that's a trip worth taking .... we might include it in our reunion plans .... the 10 second Sherman family will be seen again soon on the Dartmouth track team, for Nate's oldest son is entering College this fall .... the lad made quite a name for himself in Boston interscholastic circles last spring .... we do not have a complete list of Tenner sons entering this fall, but "Shing" Sherwin's son, Dick, is on the list, as is Billy Williams' son, Lewis .... we hope to have a complete list for the next issue .... Mr. and Mrs. Art Allen's very capable daughter, Priscilla, enters Mt. Holyoke this year, her high school work having been of such high grade as to eliminate entrance exams .... Art's 11-year-old son says that he doesn't want to go to Dartmouth because there are no girls there .... Does any Tenner ever see "Louie" Belcher or Sam Mathewson or Reuben Copp? All are in the vicinity of New York, as are Walter Phelps and Ed Stix .... we would welcome word about any or all of these men.
Clarke Tobin, always a great Dartmouther, will be 110% on hand at the 25th .... he sent us the following, which was given to him by another loyal Dartmouth man, Arthur Livermore of the class of 1888 .... it's worth passing along . . . . "The pessimist sees it blue. Thequitter has his alibi. The man of couragegoes down fighting, but the thoroughbredsees it through."
The class extends its sympathy to Harry Sandberg, whose wife, Blanche, passed away on May 15 ... . "Sandy" is with Speak-O-Phone Recording Studios at 29 West 57th St., New York .... Ray Gorton has golfed considerably this summer .... Ted Hill has gone and done it . ... on August 6 Ted was married to Miss Julia Hutchins Faulkner of Keene, N. H., the wedding taking place at the summer home of the bride's brother in Castine, Me Hoitt Charlton is in the "pink" of physical condition after having spent a year on his uncle's farm in Nova Scotia .... Hoitt and family are now living at 83 No. Hancock St., Lexington, not far from Sid Bull, the well-known apple-raiser .... Earle Pierce is getting ready to go footballing this fall, as is Earle Jr., in whose veins runs some of the Dartmouth-Bankart-football blood, which, plus the Pierce portion, makes a keen combination.
Fritz Rainey, archeologist, author, educator, and lecturer, has had a tough physical break .... a few extracts from his letter will tell the story better than I can . ... "A year ago last April I injured myback. This injury became progressivelyworse, turned into multiple neuritis andnervous breakdown, and finally put meout of commission at the end of the firstsemester. Although I am not out of thewoods yet, I feel that ultimately I shalllick the darn thing. It has given me at leastone interesting experience. I was put undertwilight sleep for five days last month torid my system of the morphine that hadbeen pumped into me for two months. Before I got to bed, the doctors fattened mefrom Ilbs. to 200 lbs. After my five days'nap I weighed 14$ lbs. which I find decidedly easier to carry around .... notthat I am indulging in long hikes, but it isoccasionally necessary for me to leave mychair for a visit to the bathroom. I havebecome very fond of my chair. Not beingable to sleep in bed, I have slept in it forsomething over four months. I do not believe that I have seen a member of ourclass in ten years. It would be a most piousdeed if any should visit Philadelphia togive me a buzz on the telephone and comeup for anything from a square meal to aweek-end. Ten-derly, Fritz Rainey." Fritz has a nice place in the Philadelphia suburbs, and any Tenners ever reaching that section should call on him by all means .... from our own experience we know well what Tenner visits mean to a fellow who is laid up ... . we had some mighty fine visits with classmates and other Dartmouth men at our summer home in a Boston hospital .... the old human carcass can stand an awful lot of punishment, but no man is ever down and out as long as his outlook on life is good .... and there is nothing which fortifies human perspective like friendships .... and no friendships have ever been found to excel those of the great Dartmouth family.
An idea o£ how Andy Scarlett rates with the undergraduates at Hanover is given in the Steeplejack, a publication which runs a column describing some of the good courses which should be taken ....
"Chem. i ... . Good, solid, toughcourse. Prof. Scarlett, who lectures, hasamazing faculty for remarks which ties upthe subject with the Great World."
Bill Taylor, Chicago industrialist, pens: "Some of us Westerners muse longinglyover the beauties of Winnepesaukee,Champlain, Moosehead, and the North Atlantic Coast." .... Bill, with every other-Tenner west of the Connecticut and south of White River Junction, is coming to Hanover for the great 25th next June . . . .
808 MCPHERSON '35 A GOLFER
Bill Brown's son, Robert, made the summer cruise to England with the Tabor Academy group .... which reminds us also that the MacPherson twins, Sis and Bud, toured Europe .... Sis going with some Girl Scouts, she being very active in that organization .... and Bud in a Y. M. C. A. group .... Bob, the Dartmouth junior, son of Jim and Louise MacPherson, summered with his parents at their Duxbury summer home, and played some plenty fine golf .... Otto Taylor vacationed ifr Maine .... anyone tripping to California should look up Ed Shattuck, who is now Pacific Coast manager of George H. Morrill Cos., the big printing ink manufacturers .... Ed's office address is 130 Fremont St., San Francisco, with residence at 343 Ranelagh Road, San Mateo .... Ed will probably load up his car and come East for the reunion .... we'll miss him at the football games . . . . "Bucky" Allen is running a fine school at Brookline .... the Rivers School .... he has doubled the enrollment during his five years' headmastership, depression and all ... . summers he runs his boys' camp at Wiscasset, Me. .... he sure knows boys .... one of his star pupils is "Else" Jenness' 11 year-old son, Jack, who has led his class consistently .... "Bucky's" own son, Jack, stands 6-2, is only 16, graduated from Rivers this year as an honor student, but on account of his young years is going to round out at Deerfield before entering Dartmouth in 1935 .... Gay Gleason and wife vacationed in New Hampshire .... Gay is a wellknown Boston attorney who has specialized in insurance work .... Howard Bushwav sent some of his famous "Bushway Icecream" in the form of pecan rolls to us while we hospitalized during the summer .... wouldn't be surprised to see him in Hanover next June .... Walt and Isabel Norton have two lively youngsters in Nancy and Patsy .... Nancy is a most unusual baseball fan for a young lady of her years .... she follows big league games, knows batting averages, idolizes Wally Berger, and would like to enter Dartmouth .... Natt Emerson is one of Hanover's respected citizens .... Harold Marsh conducts farming on an extensive scale at Sheldon, Vt any Tenners happening to be in that section should look him up ... . and Harold March, another Tenner with similar name, lives in the fruit belt at Middleport, N. Y., where he conducts a wholesale fruit business, domestic and export .... both of them are due back for the reunion.
DON'T FORGET .... WE NEED NEWS .... WE'VE SHOT THE WHOLE WORKS IN THIS ISSUE!
