If it is proper for one department to compliment another, then I point to with pride the work being done by the book reviewer of this magazine, Herb West, formerly right wing of Round Robin. Gene Hotchkiss sent a Christmas card
showing photographically the huskiness of his three boys. For the last ten years the Hotchkiss card has contained visual evidence that while Dartmouth football material may not now be what sport-forsport's-sake advocates like Orr wish, there is a day coming when burly boys will again be students in Hanover.
