Class of 1924
One look at the Guest Book at the cabin of the Dartmouth Outing Club of Boston, located in the "wilds" of Groton, Mass., indicates a fervid interest in this offshoot of the parent organization in Hanover by Don Wilbur, Walt Emerson, and Red Hopkins. Don is secretary of the organization, and at a rough guess spends at least two nights a week there.
Alex Gibson, who administers French to more than one or two Dartmouth candidates each year at Horace Mann School in New York City, also gets a Hanover slant on Manhattan College's prospects for the football season. Right near his home, Frankie Smith, assisting Chick Meehan again this fall, goes into an occasional huddle with Alex. All plans were made to attend the reunion, Alex unfolds, but the expected arrival of Barbara Jean kept him close to home. Following this 4th of July event he drove to Vermont via Hanover, which was thoroughly deserted, however, when he got there.

EXCERPTS FROM The Dartmouth, DEC., 1923 Dave Perry presided at a meeting of the Dartmouth College Club and introduced William Jennings Bryan, who spoke on "Science Versus Evolution," and who opened his remarks by a blast at the editorial of Hal Cowley's appearing in the paper the morning before regarding Mr. Bryan's views.
