Class of 1901
New York Tribune, Sunday, May go, 1937. "Belfast, Me., May 29—Mr. and Mrs.George Pingree of New York, formerly ofFontainebleau, France, are among the earlyarrivals at their estate in North-port, justbelow Belfast. They purchased this place,formerly known as Hillside Farms, lastseason. It was the property of the late IraM. Cobe, utilities operator of New Yorkand Chicago. The Pingrees have renamedthe estate Belvedere. Mr. and Mrs. Pingree are planning to do much entertainingthis summer, and early in June are expecting the Count and Countess Enso d'Urbania, of Paris."
The Dartmouth Club of Lowell and the Dartmouth Association of Nashua enjoyed an outing at the Vesper Country Club at Tyngsboro, Mass., Thursday, May 27. Deacon Hildreth and Steve Stevens were the only representatives of the class on attendance, but they were able to get together and compare notes. It seems that Deacon is still very much of a camera enthusiast and served as chairman of the camera committee at the Apple Blossom Festival in Westford held the middle of May.
Ralph Hunter has an appointment starting next February as resident in neurology at the Massachusetts General Hospital, and will also serve part time teaching at Harvard Medical School. Ted Hunter was invited, with other Dartmouth men, to form a skiing party in Chile this summer.
The Thayer School has recently published a list of the alumni, and this was made possible through the kindness of Mrs. Robert Fletcher and Miss Mary Fletcher, in memory of Robert Fletcher. The account of the forming of the school and the record of the life of "Bobby" was written by Donald Doan, Louie Crone's son-in-law.
Ted Hunter was a member of the invited U. S. team of skiers that sailed for Chile this summer, and showed them down there how the trick is done. Ted had some very fine write-ups in regard to his work.
Harold H. Lane (Dolph's second boy) has been appointed an instructor in astronomy at Dartmouth. He studied at Harvard following his graduation from Dartmouth, and has been teaching the past two years while working for his degree, Doctor of Philosophy.
Walter S. Young, serving as President of the board of trustees of Pickerton Academy, Derry, N. H., presented the diplomas to the graduating class of 1937.
"L. O." Merrill has been appointed to the board of trustees of New Hampton (N. H.) School, his old prep, school. He still lives in Pittsfield, and seems to enjoy life. He looks after some estates and carries on a big garden. The Secretary stops in to see him occasionally, and "L. O.'s" interest in all the class is evident by his many questions in regard to them and theirs.
Word has been received of the death of George M. James (Jones). See Necrology for particulars.
Everett M. Stevens Jr. graduated from Tabor Academy, Marion, Mass., in June and has entered Dartmouth with the class of 1941. His younger brother, Charles, will attend Tabor for the next few years.
Jim McCarten is back in New York City with the Home Owners Loan Corp., at 330 W. 42c! St. The New York crowd will enjoy having Jim with them again. He is a regular attendant at the class lunches held at the Dartmouth Club, the first Thursday in every month.
"KIM" Hall graduated from the College in June, and now plans to take a year or so graduate work in chemistry at Cornell.
Quite a number of the class were in Hanover for Commencement this year, and a good time was had by all, with no set program to make one feel they must follow. We noted Chan and Mae Cox, Henry and Mildred Taylor, Johnnie and Alma Ward, Gene and Katherine Leach, Howard and Gene Hall, Harry and Grace Gilmore, Eddie Hunter, Steve Stevens, and Zeus Marshall.
We copy the following from the New York Times:
"The draftsmen of the Constitutionworked on the principle of Montesquieu,that government should consist of threebranches, legislative, executive, judicial.The old order changeth. Though the number three continues, the divisions are to bethe legislative, the executive, and the laborunio?is. The judiciary will take the placeof the electoral college as the vermiformappendix of the body politic. The threedivisions, however, will not be independent, but rather will express the holdingcompany idea under which the unions willcontrol the executive, and the executivethe legislative, in a resplendent Americandictatorship by the proletariat.
Secretary, 37 Berkeley St., Nashua, N. H.
