A letter from Len Manley, president of the Woodbury Co. Savings Bank at Sioux City, lowa, notes that we here have been having a real old-fashioned New England winter, while Sioux City has had almost no snow and the ground, in February, was entirely bare and much too dry. Len has been busy since the reopening of his bank, and on February 19, as the deposits had been increasing so satisfactorily to over the million mark, a new statement was issued.
Chet Dudley sent in his check for class dues to Bob Conant from Chicago. This, fact and his address given as 135 So. La Salle St., confirmed a rumor that he had gone from Boston to Chicago. We will report again as soon as we receive the letter from Chet he promised to write.
From the Naval Hospital at Chelsea, Mass., Rollo W. Hutchinson has been transferred to the U. S. Submarine Base,. Coco Solo, Canal Zone. Rollo, evidently too bashful to write, simply sent in his revised address.
We met Eddie Sides the other afternoon, in Boston as he was starting back to Hudson, where he is with the Firestone Footwear Company. He has a son, a junior in high school and a football player, who will be headed for Hanover in two years. We spent a long time talking about Hanover and calling to each other's minds various incidents in the lives of Dave Logan, who is now in Norwalk, Conn., Tom Lawrence Sullivan, who is around Boston, Mose Ewing, now in Georgia, and many others.
Nor Catterall was in Boston during the storm of February 18 to 21, and thus was able to take in the regular class luncheon at the Chamber of Commerce Building on Wednesday noon at 12:30. Bill Towler was in town for lunch on March 8, during one of his "collection trips," as Bill Appleyard calls them. Towler, Linscott, and Wilkins held an impromptu class meeting and talked over suggestions for the annual reunion in June in Hanover. More about this in the report of the reunion last June, which we hope to have in the mails before long.
