Class of 1915

Just "Who Is Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf," say Dan Waugh, Turk Turner, Eddie Rice, Dale Barker, Kike Richardson, Jack Mason. Walt Meader, Joe Harris, and a considerable contingent from New York and way stations attending the Yale game. Especially glad to have heard from Joe Harris, who has not been in our midst since 1915.

The "Night - before - the - Harvard - game" party, held jointly with 1914, was a huge success, with the following fifteeners present: Henderson, Jordan, Foster, Bull, Lounsbury, Hill, Martin, Slade, Sullivan, Jonnie Johnson, Sutcliffe, Bennink, Fuller, Meader, Rice, Mason, Richardson, Barker, Priddy, Mullin, Downing, St. Clair, Warren, Shea, Wyman, Clough, Atwood, Jones, as well as the Secretary and some of his Harvard friends who had fallen by the wayside. The Stadium was not thoroughly canvassed but in addition to the above, Griffith, Page, Milmore, Sisk, Williams, Fitts, Noyes, Cavanaugh, and Burnett were seen. Harry Burnett says that he is back in the 1915 fold for good. After the game, with the help of "Hudson's Bay" Ross, Cloughie and his side-kick, String Downing, organized a party at the Arlraont Country Club, Arlington, Mass. Apparently some of those attending started immediately for New Haven, as we have seen a piece of a goal post not large enough for a toothpick for a doll, sent to us by Cloughie.

What a pleasure it was to see Aug Atwood at Boston, after two years' suffering from a spinal injury, most of the time of which he had been hospitalized—with the necessary braces, weights, etc. He is now his old self again, for which the class is thankful.

From all reports, our new treasurer, Norvie Milmore, is doing an extra good and grand job. It is reported officially that his broadside was the best issued, and that 1915 will maintain their previous records for magazine subscriptions.

Speaking of claim to fame, Hugh "Roney" Rowell, assistant professor of health education, Teachers College, Columbia University, seems to have the class stopped on hobbies. At his home at Tarrytown, N. Y., he has some eighty antique clocks, as well as the world's smallest circus, a miniature circus known to all circus people and fans, and frequently exhibited in New York. In addition he is an contributor to various popular and scientific magazines.

And now for news from here and there.

• • • • Jack Bowler, our genial classmate and dean of the Medical School, has spent a good share of the fall in Minnesota (Rochester, we assume), where undoubtedly 116 has learned more tricks of the trade, • • • . and so we go, but as our very efficient ex-secretary, Hal Davison, says: "Wemust have news with which to fill this column," so a word to the wise should be sufficient.

Secretary, Orleans, Vt.
