Dartmouth Club of Baltimore

The regular monthly meeting of the Dartmouth Club of Baltimore was held in the club rooms of the Blackstone Apartments on November 7th and took the form of Ladies Night. We experimented with this form of meeting sometime ago and it met with such hearty approval and huge success that it has now become a fixed part of our season's program. Each time more and more of the ladies attend and we feel that the idea has done much to bring together the Dartmouth family in this locality.

After a fine chicken dinner we were treated to three reels of Dartmouth movies. The pictures dealt with the winter sports enjoyed at Dartmouth and featured scenes at the king of all events, Winter Carnival. We were most fortunate in having Win Hatch '30 present who followed up the movies with an interesting talk on the Outing Club. Win was an Outing Club man from head to foot while in college and consequently was able to present a most vivid picture of the activities engaged in and sponsored by that organization. He had been to Hanover recently and told us about the great development being made in the form of Alumni Outing Clubs throughout the country. By the time Win was through it would have taken very little to induce everyone to make a migra- tion en masse to Hanover to enjoy the thrills of skiing through the hills.

We were greatly honored to have as our guests Mr. and Mrs. Shortlidge. Mr. Shortlidge is headmaster of Tome School whose hockey team has twice captured the trophy offered by the local Dartmouth Club to the winner of the preparatory school hockey league composed of teams in and around Baltimore. Several boys have entered Dartmouth from Tome School and Mr. and Mrs. Shortlidge have become enthusiastic members of the Dartmouth family.

On October 23rd Mr. and Mrs. Robert C. Hazard '29 became the proud parents of Robert Jr. We understand that the youngster already is being put through strenuous calisthenics and is being brought up on a strict diet of "Beat Yale."

With the hope that) this article may be read by some Dartmouth men who may be in this vicinity we announce our next meeting which will be held at the Blackstone Apartments, 33rd and Charles Sts., on the evening of December 7th. It will be strictly a stag gathering with dinner at 6:30. We can assure anyone who comes a most cordial welcome and an enjoyable evening with as enthusiastic a crowd of Dartmouth men as ever assembled anywhere.

Secretary.
