We have news this month of three brethren in Kappa Phi Kappa.

Kappa Phi Kappa, as you will remember, is the athletico-educational fraternity.

Whit Kimball, who has been a frequent source of news of late is now the big figure in Manchester (Mass.) sporting and educational circles in more ways than the one which first comes to mind. He is now principal of the Manchester High School. Needless to say, his natural gravity has been greatly increased by this promotion. It is a sad duty to report that his beer drinking has suffered.

John Donovan, teaching economics at the Newburyport (Mass.) High School, has had his contract for the football coaching job renewed for another year. Our informant also made mention of a "budding romance in Dorchester."

It is interesting to note that John's team played Whit's team last year and that the game, appropriately enough, ended in a scoreless tie.

Jack Smart will leave off his teachingcoaching at St. James School this June to become one of the founding fathers of the Redding Ridge School for Boys at Redding Ridge, Conn.

VINCULA MATRIMONII

On March 27, Norm Erlandson was married in Scarsdale, N. Y., to Miss Margaret Helen Johnston, Wellesley '36, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alva Johnston of that town, Mr. Ernest S. Davis Jr. of Middletown, Conn., was best man.

Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Hurley's daughter Eileen was married to Bill Forbes on March 20 in South Bend, Ind.

Miss Alice Holmes of Chicago became the bride of Jack Robinson, the noted cat fancier, in that city on March fifth.

Mr. and Mrs. J. Edwin Blaney of Salem, Mass., have announced the engagement of their daughter Eleanor to William GibbsBates of Hartford, Conn. Mr. Bates, it appears, is with the Hartford National Bank and Trust Cos. Miss Blaney is of Smith, vintage of 1933.

Howie Porter will be married in the fall to Miss Marjorie Matthew of White Plains, N. Y., Wellesley and Katharine Gibbs.

Yesterday we received a post card from Nassau, Bahamas, which left us a bit bewildered. On one side was a photograph of what purported to be Dirty Dick's HotelBar. From the bottles which were prominently displayed at the bar and on the tables, the patrons appeared to be drinking, among other things, champagne, rum, Johnny Walker Black Label, Vat 69, Seagram's, and Sherry. And if that doesn't leave you dizzy, try this message from Hagan on the other side of the card. "I was taking the Hudson Tube from Jerseyto New York and wound up here. Theseengineers can do anything. Maybe I'll takea taxi from here to Havana."

If you had read the last ALUMNI MAGAZINE with great care you would have noted the following items. Spang and Willis attended the small, select Dartmouth Night celebration at Cambridge University, (in England, of course) Ford Say re is sponsoring an alumni college with lectures and stuff (optional) this June George Davis is a partner in an applegrowing enterprise Ed Freeman and Swede Branson were among the skiers at Stowe, Vt., on Washington's Birthday. .... Manny Sprague has been elected president of the Bridgeport Alumni Association Phil Whitbeck is treasurer of the Rochester group WinHobbs, Dick Lyon, and Page Worthington are prominent in the Washington organization.

We saw Connie Corcoran recently. He reported that his newspaper was prospering and that all was well in Methuen.

Henry C. Smith is engaged in Underground Construction for the Public Service Gas & Electric Cos. in Newark. He lives at 20 Lexington St., Apt. G-2, Unit-5.

Bob Taylor styles himself a manufacturer. His address is now 3450 Vista Ave., Cincinnati.

Bob Fox is a salesman for the Colonial Beacon Oil Cos., and his new address is 8 Windsor St., Andover, Mass.

ALUMNI FUND

Hal Smith has taken over the management of the 1933 Alumni Fund campaign, which will be well under way when you receive this abbreviated contribution. All indications point to an unusually successful year, and it is our hope that 1933 will finish in a more prominent place in the roll of the recent classes.
