Class of 1910
Herb Coar is living at Kingston, Mass. .... Dave Colwell is a salesman in Akron, Ohio, living at 206 Caslerton Ave
Lieut. Commander Ernest Small is stationed on the U. S. S. Oklahoma at the San Pedro, Calif., naval base .... Vice-Pres. Jack Richmond of the Irving Trust is an enthusiastic Dartmouth man, and could probably run his old Exeter-Dartmouth "440" in about 81 seconds or minutes right now .... Barrister-Insurancer Gay Gleason attends insurance executives sessions all over the country .... but he took time off to "special train" to Hanover's Norwich game .... on which train also were such dignitaries as 01' Doc Foster from down in Me., Josephus Downey, Hon. Chas. Fay, and Allen Pope Salmon of Bostontown . . . . M. Fall, Maiden att'y-at-the bar, missed the train .... Chemistry Prof. Andy Scarlett addressed Hanover Rotary Club on "Petroleum" .... WheelChair Tom Leonard of Nashua captured the Democratic councilor nomination in the Fourth New Hampshire District with a total of 2997 to 644 for his opponent at the September primaries .... when we returned to the Corey Hill Hospital in Boston a short time ago to have 15 weeks of casts removed (adv.: information on that subject furnished gratis), it was with no small amount of both pleasure and disappointment that we found a note from Johnny Finn, New Jersey educator, awaiting us ... . pleasure at Trombone John's thoughtfulness in calling, and we'd give our best shirt to see him again .... disappointment at not seeing him; if we had known that he was coming, we might have remained there an extra week or so ... .
another 1910 educator paid us a fine visit, Julius Warren, newly elected superintendent of schools in swanky Newton, whose home address is now 125 Plymouth Road, Newton Highlands .... same old Julius; matured; looks like a successful educational or professional man, which he must be or he would never have pulled down that job .... with him was a swell little 12 yr. old gent named Dick, who's going to Dartmouth one of these days . . . . Julius said, "The unpleasant feature incoming East was breaking the associationsand interests that bound us to Ohio forseven years. As far as quality is concerned,the Dartmouth crowd in Cleveland cannotbe surpassed. They are a great bunch, andfurnished some of the happiest associations/ have ever had." .... just about that time we received a San Francisco Palace Hotel envelope in which was an anonymous poem, best unprintable in part, depicting a Lake Erie farewell cruise to Julius on Juddy's Yacht Decision .... it smelled of Pineapple Hank's fine Eye-talian hand .... the lake was rough, "When all goodBaptists kneeled to pray" .... that's enough.
While mentioning educators, and 1910 has a notable field, we wish to mention these new addresses: Herrick F. Kidder, McDonough School, Pikesville, Md.; Fred Rainey, Simon Gratz High School, Philadelphia; Malcolm Bissell, associate professor of geology, Univ. of Southern California, Los Angeles .... Atkins Nickerson is in investments at 614 So. Hope St., Los Angeles.
New addresses: Chan Baxter, P. O. Box 1413, Tacoma Wash.
John Cassidy, 80 John St., New York. Howard Fogg, 713 Greenwood Ave., Wilmette, Ill.
Henry Harrison, 2031 Stout St., Denver. Alfred Moriarty, 116 John St., New York. Doug Mower, 120 College St., Burlington, Vt.
1910 Steals Show
Ever a virile and prolific tribe, 1910 gave Dartmouth's freshman class more sons than any other class .... last year tied with 1906 at 7 each; year before leading with 14 sons .... and this year at 14 again, far ahead of the field .... read the names:
Father Dick Boerker "Obbie" Coleman Howard Fogg Ed Higbee Lester Moses Rollie Reynolds "Ossie" Shenstone Nate Sherman "Shing" Sherwin Edgar Stix Ben Williams Billy Williams Herb Wolff "Shorty" Worcester
Son Allan E. John P. Howard L. Jr Richard C. Charles W. George R. Joseph C. Vining A. Richard H. Robert L. Ben Ames Jr. Lewis M. Jr. Alfred R. II Francis Jr.
This makes two sons each in Dartmouth for Ed Higbee, Rollie Reynolds, and Ben Williams .... more power to the class! Dave Johnson also has two there at present .... if all Dartmouth classes came through like 1910, the College would have to extend its quarters .... and there are plenty more in the process .... the late Bill Dussault has a mighty smart son, Bob, in Boston Latin, headed Hanoverward .... another is "Bud" MacPherson, second son of Jim and Louise, finishing up at Exeter this year even though he was ac accepted as one of the "junior selections" for Dartmouth class of 1939, no small honor in itself .... a darned sight more than his old man ever dug out of the books .... there certainly is no heredity there, and we'll argue that question out any day with Naugatuck U. S. Rubber Walt Norton as referee, which reminds us of a "feed" we had one night on banks of the 01' Connecticut with said Phi Bete Morton, Oratorical MacPherson, "Babe" Steward, and AllAmerica Guard C. Tobin, all men of vigorous intelligence and unfathomed stomachical capacities .... Vining Sherman, son of Nathaniel, is playing quarter on freshman team coached by Sid Hazelton '09, who urges him to be faster, be faster . . . .
can you imagine anyone of our time in college urging a Sherman to get more speed?
The fact that James Richard Everett, one-time class president, father of a fine family, vice-president and general manager of the Wonalancet Company, well-known cotton mills, got a group picture of himself, wife, and kiddies in a Boston newspaper brings forth this crack from Art Allen, who served as secretary during Jim's term of office, "I can understand thewrite-up about Julius Warren, but howdoes a Democrat like Jim rate this publicityin a Republican paper? I wish that youwould speak to him about it." .... which we did, Arthur .... and able James told us privately that a friend stole this oldtime picture from the family album and had it run in the Herald as a good Irish joke .... which reminds us that this same Boston Herald uses 1910 rather nicely .... not long ago it had a picture of Deborah and Betsy, young sailing daughters of Larry and Miriam Bankart . . . . and in mid-August there was a picture of Cynthia Johnson, attractive daughter of our own Ollie Johnson and wife, well known in social circles as Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Ames Johnson .... Cynthia was mounted on a mighty fine white horse, which had won first prize in a certain class at the Cohasset Horse Show .... Ollie's Christmas card last season had a reprint of a family picture showing Mr. and Mrs. Johnson and five children, all seven well mounted, with the two youngest on ponies .... the Bankarts are also great horse folks, Deborah taking a whole string of first prizes this summer at shows in Lenox, Westchester, Biltmore, and a few similar places.
REUNION CHAIRMAN BILLY WILLIAMS
"Just as the banks established ChristmasSavings Clubs, start your own ReunionSavings Fund. We are the '25 Year Class.'Let's live up to expectations! Reune, makethis the 'Greatest' of all Peerades, 'beefaway the years at Dartmouth, a thrillingplace of eternal youth. Revisit the oldspots, loaf across the grand old Campus,and realize with, pride that it is yours."
Billy's son, Lewis, is on the freshman B squad .... Micky Holmes son, Stephen, is on freshman squad at Harvard .... something went wrong, even though Max Lucius is a rabid Dartmouth man .... his oldest daughter, Lucille, is a freshman at Simmons .... Hoitt Charlton is seeking a position that has a reasonable prospect, and we sure hope that he lands one .... his education at Exeter and Dartmouth plus sixteen years in publicity, selling, credits, and collections should make him a valuable man for someone .... Joe Davidson says that except for hot summers, Arizona has a perfect climate .... Joe has a rather unusual but highly interesting collection of covers from the ALUMNI MAGAZINE .... a most worthwhile idea.
Pres. Pineo, V. P., N. Y. Dartmouth Club; pres. of Insurance Co.; outdoor cooking expert; renowned hunter at bridge, duck blinds, and golf greens; with a young daughter, Katherine, in Low-Heywood School in Conn, and two sons in the Dartmouth incubator; is a smart feller all right enough, but one doggone poor penman, even though he claims my eyesight is "cock-eyed" when I read his letters . . . .
his letters are so good, ordinarily, that they deserve a "Newer Deal" in handmanship .... for example here is an extract worth passing along .... "If one pausesto think much regarding economic and social complexities, he gets dizzy. I have forsome time tried to let each day be sufficientunto itself, and not waste my energy worrying about the future or things which Icould not influence."
The Tobin family spent the summer at Stockbridge, Mass., and the class will be glad to know that Mrs. Tobin is much improved in health after many years of suffering .... young Jack Tobin is at Choate School .... Massachusetts has 95 Tenners; New York comes next with 43; and Illinois third in line with 21 . . . . Herb Woods is with the government in Washington .... Fletch Rogers lives in Toledo .... has anyone seen Walter Golde in or around N. Y.; or Harry Sandberg; or Guy Perry?
The "Shorty" Worcesters and Paul Alberts had cottages side by side at Lake Fenron in Wisconsin with a series of weekend Dartmouth reunions that included the "Mun" Coles, Don Bryants, and others .... in addition to having a freshman son at Hanover, "Shorty" has a junior daughter at Wheaton College .... and another son junior in high school, getting ready for Dartmouth .... by the way, "Shorty" is one of those agreeable souls who never blamed "Clothespins" for flunking him in English 16 ... . first two checks received by Treas. Judd in his current collecting campaign were from the Honorables Bill Tucker and Herb Wolff in N. Y., something of a record for the city which enjoys reputation of taking and not giving much change back .... any Tenner can do the class a real favor by sending a check to Juddy .... Jim Porter has been a frequent visitor to his old home in Maiden, where his father, a former M. I. T. professor, is quite ill . . . Ralph Paine, Waterbury merchant of note, has been elected president of American Retailers, Inc., a closely united group of stores organized for buying and research purposes, representing a retail sales volume of over one hundred million dollars .... young John Dingle, son of our Jack, is back at Hanover for his second year.
Send in some news .... the shelves are bare.
Secretary, 168 Hill St., Barre, Vt.
