Class of 1915
Good old Treasurer Taplin is reported to be somewhat discouraged at the telling effects of the depression, at least funds have been coming in rather slowly. On the other hand, it appears that we have nearly too members who are already hoping to attend the big 20th Reunion in Hanover next June. It is probable that the reunion committee will base their plans on a probable attendance of about one hundred, unless the enthusiasm continues to grow in such proportions that a larger number can be safely expected. "Tap" attended the Vermont game and reports having seen Kike Richardson and Jack Bowler. Apparently the rain did not dampen their enthusiasm.
Bob Fredericks spent a vacation recently in New Hampshire and reports a pleasant trip up Mount Moosilauke.
Senator Rus Chase was successful in the Republican primaries, and we hope to be able to announce in the next issue his success in the November election. Rus reports attending the Norwich game, where he saw Johnny Mullin.
Ray King has established himself in some very luxurious new quarters, and from all reports is making an enviable reputation as an attorney in the state of Massachusetts.
Dick Clarke's excuse for not having sent news to the Secretary for this issue is that he has been interrupted by one Adam Sutclilfe. Both are expected to contribute at least fifty words for this column in the next issue.
At the last 1915 dinner held in the Dartmouth Club in New York, Charlie Griffith, Roy Lafferty, Rus Livermore, Dan Waugh, Ralph Brown, John Healy, and Kel Rose' were present. The date assigned for the regular monthly meetings this winter is the third Wednesday for this month, the place at the Dartmouth Club in New York. Any '15er who happens to be in town should make an effort to attend. These meetings will be an excellent clearing house for discussion of ideas pertaining to the reunion, and Chairman Kel will certainly appreciate suggestions.
Among the changes of address which have been sent to the Secretary recently are the following: Bud Whitney, 100 Maples Road, Brookline, Mass.; William Lang, 18689 Purnell Ave., Rocky River, Ohio; Throne Pray, 118 West Avington Ave., Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia, Pa.; Clare Mower, R. F. D. 3, Rockford. Ill.; John Harriman, U. S. S. Langley, care of Postmaster, San Diego, Calif.; Les Dunn, Zoological Institute, The University, Oslo, Norway.
Walt Wanger is certainly making good at Hollywood. The latest report from Wall is that he is associate producer of M-G-M and directly in charge of Garbo's new picture. Incidentally, it should be remarked that Walter has also received his A.B. degree.
Ray King has entered into a law partnership with Edwin H. Lyman Jr., with offices in the Springfield National Bank Building, 1537 Main St., Springfield, Mass.
Jigs Donahue recently reported that he was very homesick in Paris, due to the fact that he will not be able to return for our 20th Reunion. He hopes to be back in about five years. Well, Jigs, perhaps you can stay long enough at that time to make the 25th Reunion.
Newspaper reports indicate that Ed Dewing received the largest vote of any primary election candidate in Norfolk County. Ed's success in the recent prominent criminal cases in Massachusetts has apparently made him a popular prosecutor. We hope for your success also in November.
The Secretary has been informed that. there is one member of the 1915 class who has a son now in Dartmouth. This information has not yet been confirmed. It is hoped that we will be able to clear up this mystery next month.
The most recent report from Frankie Rohrs stated that he was at 1328 Madison St., Denver, Colo., and in very poor health. We hope that he has recovered before this time. Why not drop Frank a line of encouragement.
If you wish to have more news in this column, why not contribute a little bit before the tenth day of the month?
Secretary, 18 So. Court St., Woodsville, N. H.
