Class of 1890

After leaving college James Fitzgerald studied law and was admitted to the bar. He practiced law for several years in Connecticut, and went to Nevada in 1904. He was admitted to the Nevada bar, and shortly thereafter became associated with the Nevada Consolidated Copper Company and was connected with them for over thirty years. Last year he was appointed labor commissioner by Governor Kirman, with headquarters in Carson City. I understand this position is quite a prominent one and corresponds somewhat to our Workingmen's Compensation Board here in Massachusetts. Fitz is also one of three members of the Industrial Insurance Commission ex officio, and of the National Reemployment Service. He was largely responsible for the Nevada Industrial Insurance Act of 1931, published in a forty-page pamphlet. Fitz referred in his letter to three Dartmouth men in his state—Chauncey Smith, the state superintendent of public instruction; Wright, who has charge of a large ranch at Elko; and Clyde Souter, a prominent lawyer in Reno. Fitz has two daughters, one a teacher in the Grasslands Hospital, White Plains, N. Y., and the other is married and lives in Reno. She has one daughter.

Well, our local election is over, and the Secretary was re-elected town treasurer for another three years They don't seem to want to "shoot Santa Claus" after he has served fifteen years.

Secretary, 34 Gray St., Arlington, Mass.
