CROLY, JOHN T., is head of the Science Department at the Southern Arizona School for Boys, Tucson, Arizona.
The collective hats of '32 should be off this month to 808 GOULD, whose wife presented him with twins on Oct. 15 at the New York Hospital. Mrs. Gould is the former Elizabeth A. Jackson of St. Paul, and the infants will be named Robert Stone Jr. and Judith Adams.
A little overwhelmed by it all, the new father of two (2) was given appropriate felicitation at the first '32 get-together of the year held at the Dartmouth Club in New York on Oct. 20. The event was something of a departure from the usual run of class dinners, being in the nature of a Dutch supper and beer party, held in the club room upstairs. The vast consumption of lager, the fluidity of the speeches, the general spirit of informality and a remarkably fine rendition of Ronald MacDonald by a dozen or so bitter-enders attested to the success of the innovation.
HANK BARBER, the Boston behemoth, has quit wrestling, and in his own words is "glad to be out of it." Hank related that his final decision to quit the mat game had been reached after a broken ankle sustained late this summer put him out of commission for six weeks. The former Dartmouth tackle, having passed his broker's exam, is now selling general insurance, with offices in the Central Savings Bank Bldg., 73d St. and Broadway, New York. He will be glad to see any of the boys.
WHIP WALSER brought the crowd at the beer party news of his recent experiences in Europe. While his tour took him to many exotic spots, he was particularly smitten with the gayety and color of Hungary. In Budapest he saw the suicide bridge made famous by the song "GloomySunday," but Whip didn't jump. Elsewhere, he climbed precipitous peaks in search of the elusive Edelweiss. The traveler also enthusiastically reported a visit to Mme. Cleri's in Marseilles, where he saw a wonderful picture show—so wonderful that he stopped in to see it again on his way back. Whip landed in Boston on Oct. 18, and took in a football game with CAL GEARY before returning to New York. Cal, he reported, spent part of his summer vacation with RED DRAKE in Newark.
In addition to those mentioned, '32 men attending the New York gathering included PLERPONT, COLTMAN, HANNAN, CHANDLER, MARCUS, DANIELS, BAKER, WARREN MOORE, HATCHER, FOX, ELIAS, DON RICHARDSON, BLADWORTH, NORTH DAVIS, BENNETT, WEINSEIMER, MARSH, RUSHMORE, PEARSON, JOHN ZIMMERMAN, ART ALLEN, KRAMER, STEVE WARD, FINDLAY, BOLDT, WEISENFLUH, GARDNER, CARDOZO, SONNY FOLEY, MORRY HUBBARD and your correspondent. Hubbard spoke briefly about the advantages of the new club building.
Another tourist recently returned is TOM WOLLAEGER, who spent five months abroad this summer, most of it driving a Ford through Central Europe and Scandinavia. Arriving in New York early in October, Tom drove through Hanover on his trip back to Milwaukee.
The '33 yachting contingent was swelled this summer by ART ALLEN, who had a small racing sloop in the Eastern Connecticut Racing Association. In three starts Art was shellaced twice, winning the third. NATE PEARSON, although personally yachtless, got plenty of sailing as a member of the Corinthians. Nate regretfully turned down an offer to go to the South Seas, but had plenty of fun plying up and down the coast.

He gives the story to a reporter, who is glimpsed for a second furiously pounding away at his typewriter. The reporter is DON MACPHAIL.
Manchester was the scene of the matrimonial highlight of the month—the wedding of PING FERRY to Jolyne Marie Gillier, daughter of Mme. Charlotte Gillier of Toronto. Eyewitness OWSLEY retails the following report: "Ferry got married onOct. 23 at the Congregational church inManchester. The bride: Jolyne Gillier ofToronto. Two of the bystanders: DON MACPHAIL and C.
