Get set for the 25th a year from now! This isn't too early to begin to plan to return and to bring with you some other 1911er who otherwise may be unable to come. Our campaign will start in earnest next fall, when you will be reminded each month of the many attractive reasons for making this the best reunion yet.
Jim Mathes ends depression! At least four copies of the Washington Post, dated April 10, were sent in to 1911 headquarters, due to the fact that the paper contained a prediction from Jim that the long anticipated boom is actually on its way, and that we are at the threshold of the biggest upturn since 1936. Jim even goes back to the Napoleonic wars to prove his point. Jim says, "After lean years we have been through it is a marvelous elixir. Our mental state is like that of a person who awakens from a nightmare to find that the haunting visions have vanished." Now, return to the first paragraph and reread it. There should no longer be any hesitation as to what your plans are to be a year hence.
A letter from Larry Odlin states that for the past year and a half he has been engaged on special work in the Navy Department in Washington which he has found extremely interesting, but that the time is coming later this summer when he must again return to sea duty, although he is going to squeeze in a trip to Hanover before that.
Bob Shackford has reappeared at his old address at 12 Granada St., Alhambra, Calif. The latest information on Bob was that he was with the Fernstrom Paper Company in San Francisco.
Don Hoffman has become associated with the Gilman School in Baltimore, Md. This is a well-known day school in Baltimore where Bud Hoban was in charge of athletics for many years.
Steve Rossiter sent in the information that Walter Harriman is in Manchester, N. H., living at 16 Hayes Ave.
The new minister of the Grand Avenue Congregational church in Chicago is our own Ernest Morrill. Ernest resides at 1305 North Hamlin Ave., Chicago.
We can't get George Byrnes to admit it himself, but he is doing a swell job with the Van Beuren Corporation, Motion Pictures, 1262 6th Ave., New York City.
If you want the day's baseball scores and all the hot dope on the big events of the day athletically, turn your dial on your radio to 59 at 6:15 and 11:05 PM- Eastern Daylight Saving Time. You will hear the voice of Jack Ingersoll, who is now connected with Station WEEI in Boston. Jack reports a pleasant month in New York, where he saw a good deal of Moon Scanlon, Warren Agry, Chub Sterling, and the newly married Jack Steeves. Jack was one of a dozen or more Eleveners to attend the annual New York dinner.
Of interest to Eleveners is the fact, already published elsewhere, that young Bob Keeler was selected as one of the six juniors at Dartmouth who will next year be Senior Fellows. Bob has made a fine reputation for himself at College in spite of the reputation which one Keeler of an earlier vintage left behind him. He is of Phi Beta Kappa rank and will next year be manager of the hockey team.
