THE ANNUAL spring meeting of the Dartmouth Club of Worcester was held last evening at the Quinsigamond Boat Club. One of the largest turn-outs since President Hopkins' visit in 1926 formed a most interested and appreciative audience for our two guest speakers, Dave Camerer and John Handrahan. Naturally the main topic of the evening was football and both speakers were introduced by Judge James C. Donnelly '05, who was one of the first of the long line of great Dartmouth ends. Dave's talk covered his three years under the Blaik regime with particular emphasis on last fall's campaigns while Johnny told us of his trip to the coast as a member of the All-East team. Following their talks they showed us six reels of the coaches movies including the entire Yale game and the second half of the Princeton game. These were all in slow motion and Dave and Johnny kept up a running fire of comment pointing out the many highlights and explaining the reasons for the success or failure of many of the plays. Now all we drugstore quarterbacks have to do is wait until next fall when we fully expect to spellbind our neighbors in the Stadium or Bowl with our intimate knowledge of sliding tackles, charging ends, and the intricacies of KF 69.

Owen Hoban '99, the newly elected president of the Dartmouth Secretaries' Association, gave one of his fine talks on the function and general background of the Secretaries' Association while Benjamin B. Hill '32, who represented the Worcester Club reported on the meeting itself. Both added fine pleas for the support of the Alumni Fund and ALUMNI MAGAZINE.

Officers for next year were elected as follows: President, Gordon S. Butler '30; Vice Pres., C. Lane Goss '25; Secretary, Sherman Baldwin '23; Treasurer, Howard M. Booth '24; Executive Committee: Royal I. Blanchard '27, Paul R. O'Connell '27, C. Jerry Spaulding '24.
