Class of 1911
The following letter, which indicates the great interest which Charlie had in 1911, was received from Mrs. Lingley, and I know it will interest all of you.
"The spray of exquisite flowers whichcame from the class of 1911 at the time ofCharlie's going had an especial significancefor me because we had both so much appreciated the honor shown him in hiselection to membership in the class. Itwas one of the happiest of his many happyexperiences at Dartmouth, and I havenever forgotten how you all treated us atthe reunion as if we were real members ofthe class and not just adopted.
"I wish I could tell you what a help suchexpressions of affection and sympathy havebeen."
Having received indirectly a complaint that Bob Sanderson was not receiving his ALUMNI MAGAZINE, prompt inquiry was made, and the fact discovered that Bob is now living the year 'round in Pittsfield, N. H. Many know that Bob's father and mother maintained their home there and spent much of the summer in Pittsfield. Recently Bob has turned this into a year 'round residence, and I understand maintains a fine stock farm.
Since Brad Patten has become assistant director for medical sciences in the Rockefeller Foundation, he has moved from Cleveland to Scarsdale, N. Y., and is located officially at 49 West 49th St., New York City, in the offices of the Rockefeller Foundation. One of the advantages that Brad will have in his work is that of traveling to all parts of the world, as his job will call for the making of investigations in many of the remote corners of the earth.
Les Waldron has a new business address at 27 West 60th St., New York City.
Accompanied by a pleasant-looking check, Les Hawkridge recently had an interesting letter from Heinie Chase, now captain in the 27th Infantry and located at Schofield Barracks in Honolulu. Heinie writes: "We have been in Hawaii almosta year and a half and are enjoying thetown. Under present conditions will be outfor another year and a half. We have hadmost beautiful weather all this winter, verylittle rain, almost every day warm andsunshiny. The island of Oahu, whereHonolulu and Schofield Barracks are located, is highly scenic. We are 25 milesfrom Honolulu." He proves this statement by accompanying photographs showing the Chase family lolling about the beaches under the palm trees. Since these arrived in Hanover when forty below zero was the prevailing temperature, Heinie's ideas of the world seemed strangely irrelevant to the real situation.
A letter from Bob Keeler really gives less news than can be obtained from young Bob in Hanover, who is continuing to make ail excellent impression on all who come in contact with him. Marge chose the coldest period of the winter to visit with her family at Texarkana, but has returned to Lima, which is now the Keeler head- quarters. It is apparent however they all miss Cleveland, although another friend writes that Bob is very happy in his new job as executive vice-president of the National Bank of Lima.
Elt Norris sends in the new address of R. F. D. No. 2, Chagrin Falls, Ohio. The last tetter from Elt indicated that he was becoming a breeder of high-grade chickens, and I expect he is still continuing to improve the strain.
Fred Sprague, that tooth-yanking individual from Melrose, Mass., turned up in Hanover during Carnival attired in ski togs, and looked and talked very much like the real skier, although I must confess that every time I saw him his skis were adjacent but not attached. Anyhow he had a young daughter with him that really could ski and again, this, without any insinuation, as I said I did not see Fred on skis.
It seems that George French is of the marrying kind, at least the account of the following wedding would so indicate:
"Miss Dorothy F. Griswold of 90 DaleSt., Waltham, Mass., a member of thesuite of honor at the 1932 Dartmouth Winter Carnival, and William A. Carr of BayState Road, Boston, were married here today by Judge George M. French, a friendof the bride's father.
"The ceremony was performed in JudgeFrench's office. Attending were the bride'sfather, Ernest H. Griswold, head of E. H.Griswold Co., accountants of Boston, thebride's grandmother, Mrs. Henry J. Griswold of this city, and a sister, Barbara Griswold of Waltham. The couple met inMaine the early part of last summer.
"The bride was graduated from WalthamHigh School, the National Park Seminary,Washington, and Gibbs Secretarial School,Boston."
I hereby certify that Heinie Chase's name has been added to the Honor Roll, where he may well be classed as the most distant class news agent on present record.
Secretary, PROF. Hanover, N. H.
