Class of 1917
Nineteen years ago we returned to Hanover to start our last college year—a year that was disrupted by the War. As a class we have not been able to reorganize entirely and overcome this handicap; however, it was well demonstrated during and since our Fifteenth Reunion that some progress had been made in this direction. Now our Twentieth is just ahead of us, and now is the time to think and work towards the goal of making this our greatest reunion, thus making further progress towards solidifying and strengthening the unity and potency of our class organization.
President Baxter is about ready to announce further details of reunion plans, particularly the reunion committee. We understand that Slats has chosen a large committee of representative men from every section of the country to stimulate interest and secure cooperation of all Seventeeners from coast to coast. All of these announcements will be given to you only through this column, so it is vitally necessary for everyone to subscribe for the ALUMNI MAGAZINE immediately.
Anyone wishing a copy of the 1917 freshman class picture (taken at dawn behind the gymnasium) or the 1917 senior picture may now secure it from Sunny Sanborn, 49 Federal St., Boston, at a cost of one dollar and one dollar and a half respectively.
At the annual secretaries' meeting last May, Hal Tobin, instructor in political science at Dartmouth, addressed the Association on the subject of "Practical Political Training in College," giving an extremely interesting description of the present aims and purposes of this work as it is now being carried on at Hanover. Two new members were admitted to the Alumni Secretaries Association from our class:— Slats Baxter as secretary of the Dartmouth Alumni Association of Southeastern Massachusetts, and Ev Robie, representing the Connecticut Association.
Indirectly we recently learned that Art Stout is residing at Uplands, Bangall, N. Y., where he seems to be leading the life of a country squire, meanwhile doing some newspaper work, writing for the Poughkeepsie Eagle News.
From the College we received the information that Dr. Earl R. McCarthy had died on April si, 1936, at Chicago. See notice in Necrology.
