Win, manager of real estate department of Workingmen's Coop. Bank, and a grandpop in his own name, modestly admits that his two-year-old granddaughter is smart like himself .... and the old man is coming to the reunion Josephus Downey, with Kaler, Carney & Liffler at 200 Franklin St., Boston, has lost 18 abdomen-ical lbs., looks younger, and wants to shrink 111/4 more Dick Boerker's daughter, Huldah, is a freshman at Univ. of N. H.; being a great outdoor girl, and deprived of Dartmouth admittance, it was the nearest thing she could get to Hanover, where her brother, Allan, is happy in his dad's footsteps .... these Boerkers all run to chemistry and "Cheerless" Richardson, Dick having had the sombre-named professor some decades ago, wife Irene, studied under him at summer school, Huldah uses his book at N. H., and Allan is in his class at Dartmouth .... with Hanover air, in and out of the laboratory, "Cheerless," who was a good egg at that, orter be good for another Boerker generation .... Dick's book, "Our National Forests," written 15 years ago, and the only one on the subject, has been supplied to each of the CCC camps, meaning additional royalties Ben Hunt has two youngsters, aged 31/2 and 134 yrs "Bones" Jones and wife Bermuda-ed, as did the "Slip" Powers and Lew Wallaces .... "Slip's" son, Sam (named for his Dartmouth grandfather), graduates from Exeter this June, enters Hanover in the fall, and shoots a lousy 75 in golf . . . . we rather opine that his presence at the reunion might act as a sedative on Messrs. T. Leonard, W. Norton, at al .... it kinder looks as though there were going to be some mighty tongue-tied folks around Hanover along about June, or some awful big story-tellers . . . . in the first place, Tom Heneage is coming from Chicago; then Insurancer Roge Farwell of Natick who weighs several firkins, fishes, lies, and don't play golf, considers himself a skeetshooter, willing to "shoot for fun, money,or marbles with anyone who will make myweight" .... the Skiing Bankarts, who will challenge any family in the class for downhill running (note: if it were bareground, downhill running for individuals, we'd like to nominate certain old-timers who made world's records from Hanoverian chicken coops, gardens, and apple trees, two nights weekly all season, and never got ketched) .... and of course, Ben Williams, a recent curling convert, will be with us to uphold his new athletic love, or demonstrate golf-putting by looking at the hole instead of the ball .... the Hon. Jas. Everett, who claims he heard Ray Gorton sucking soup at the Boston dinner, telegraphs to all Tenners, "Damnthe torpedoes! Full steam ahead! Hanover!June!" .... and thus speaketh a wise Irish Demmykrat .... and good ol' "Mac" Kendall, prominent railroader, is coming even if he has to "ride blind baggage." All in all, it's
YOUR 25TH!
T. Heneage attended Chicago-Dartmouth dinner, and behaved like a gentleman, as did Dick Hursh, Bill Taylor, "Easty," Billy Williams, and Howard Fogg, all of whom will be in Hanover in June. . . . . Geo. Thurber, who still likes 1910 a little, has been elected president of the Second National Bank of Nashua (it's that big good-looking building on a street corner .... if you need any money, don't pass it up ... . and Nashua's Dartmouth mayor, Al Lucier, has his office upstairs, too .... never a dull moment when those two boys are around .... P.S Geo. will be at the reunion .... he was also elected president of Jim Everett's Wonalancet Company Reunion Chairman Billy Williams, who is striving hard to put on a great, good-time, plenty of-beefing, inexpensive affair in June, has won several bridge prizes in Chicago's University Club Jim Porter was called to Maiden by his father's death. .... Sid Whipple, who made reporting history in covering Hauptmann trial for United Press, has published a 50,000 word book, "The Lindberg Crime." .... New York Herald Tribune says "Brilliant job ofsummary reporting . ... a decent humanattitude and a sharp eye to pick out theessential from the masses of details . . . .he appears to have no doubt of BrunoHauptmann's guilt; and his summary ofthe trial may convince some who still havefaint doubts." .... Jim Lowell's good wife, Helen, spent part of winter at Lake Wales, Fla Jim suggests that the New Deal furnish us a new set of brains to follow the adjustments .... by the way, Ben Williams has a peach of a fishing story, "Old Men's Pool," in a recent issue of the Saturday Evening Post .... Ben and family spent Easter vacation at Sea Island, Ga he works hard at his writing .... we have given you a peep behind the scenes with our professors, lawyers, and doctors, and here's one with our bestknown author .... a quotation from Ben's interesting letter (on curling mostly), "I get to my office every morning aboutan hour, or maybe two hours, earlier thanmost hard-working business men, do eightor nine hours' work in about five, andfor the rest of the day am too tired to domuch of anything else" .... and boy, can we hear this sound down here in Fla., "The necessity of putting on chains to getout of our garage and down the hill toBeacon St., and then listening to thosechains rattle over perfectly snowless streetsall the way to town and back .... annoys me intensely" .... Ben's right . . . . that always did "grip" this customer; among many others .... at N. Y. Dartmouth dinner were Pres. Pineo Jackson, "Tobe," Bill Tucker, Ed Raabe, "Lighthouse Lenny" McClintock, Otto Taylor, Ray Seymour, Jack Richmond, Thayer Smith, and Dinny Pratt "Inky" Taylor has formed a new law partnership with Franklin R.

Here's something to shoot at! "Monty" Fall has been with New Eng. Tel. & Tel. Co. 25 years this November. Our heartiest congratulations to both! And "Monty" gets pleasure out of life. In mid-Feb. he took his n-yr. old daughter, his younger sister, and two nephews, Parker (a Harvard freshman) and Albert, on the special "Dart mouth Snowbird" train to Hanover .... now Parker talks of little else than transferring to Dartmouth next fall .... same as Micky Holmes' son, Steve Longhead Larry Bankart, wise and successful, says a mouthful, "If we can help'people tokeep their heads, the boat will not sink,and eventually, everyone will have a life, but may the good Lord guide us! .... Gay Gleason has been hopping around Washington, Harrisburg, Augusta, and Concord, busier than usual with legislative insurance matters .... our sympathy goes to Mrs. "Buck" Allen, who has been confined to the bed with heart trouble since last fall but is now improving • • • • she and "Buck" sure can take plenty of pride in that 6-ft. son, a student, footballer, and hockeyteer, now at Deerfield and heading for Dartmouth this fall. ... Ed Loring promises to tell at the reunion how he slept, and snored, while his house was being ransacked (an awful mess was made of our own house by a sole burglar when we were down here last winter)—for the past week we have had a coupla breaths of real Hanover Jim MacPherson's son, Bob, who made his hockey "D" this winter, and his roommate, John McKernan, next year's basketball captain and a young friend of ours from Barre paid us a surprise visit, having sailed into Miami on a spring vacation trip Doc Bowler and wife are still at Miami, and he's a great guy—you can have lots of fun with him just as enthusiastically conversational on all things pertaining to Dartmouth and health-building as he was when you fellers wTere in short pants and had fuzz on your chins-the College is giving him a well-merited testimonial dinner early in May-Nate Emerson, tall and quiet, was honored by Hanover citizens with a re-election for three years to the Hanover School Board.

Come any old way you can get thereeach and every man sure is going to be welcome, and is needed for the "bull sessions' lots of things to be argued—and few settled, according to good Dartmouth traditions—thanks to Schoolmaster Johnny Mitchell, former pitcher of note, we have a clipping from the Sodus, N. Y., Record (and you just can't beat those old hometowners) that points with pride to the success Maynard Teall has made in the legal profession, citing his work in the Mellon tax case 1910 had two offsprings on the freshman relay team, Messrs. Sherman and Higbee, sons of Nate and Ed "Bard," the Minneapolis lumberman, is due at the reunion, and his older son, Monty, will enter Dartmouth in fall of '36—his lumber concern is just completing its two largest contracts, one for all o£ the woodwork and cabinet work in the North Dakota state capitol, and the other for similar work in the New York State Hospital at Bulfalo, each an interesting and difficult experience in itself, dealing with all phases of the NRA (and 7A) and the public works de partments of two states some fifteen hundred miles apart—in closing this month's batch of items, we ask you to not forget that whole-souled, reliable, hard-working, good old Andy Scarlett and his efforts with the Alumni Fund—give what you can, and let your conscience be your guide—beyond that it is nobody's business—we just sort of have an idea that 1910 will give Andy his customary success.
