When the football application blanks arrive from McCarter's office, Munro comes back from the last of a long succession of fishing trips, and notes become due for the ALUMNI MAGAZINE, we Jinow that the summer rest period is over and the long grind begins.
The Alumni Records Office supplies a tiding or two as follows: Richard Brown has a new address at 72 Windsor Rd., Wellesley Hills, Mass.; James Carter is chief clerk of District No. 9 of the Railway Mail Service, St. Paul, Minn.; Francis Allen now at 44 Gramercy Park, N. Y. C.; Norm Weaver at Middleburg, N. Y.; Hen Shields in the air conditioning business with General Electric at 11 East Merrick Rd., Freeport, N. Y.; and Gin Mullen at Box 726, Westhampton Beach, L. 1., which sounds like a temporary affair for summer sunning.
Art Brentano is running a bookstore on Fifth Avenue, which doesn't seem entirely new somehow; Dick Seward is in the wholesale redwood lumber business in Los Angeles, Calif., living in San Marino; Hal Janes—new address, 9 Holman St., Waltham, Mass.; Certified Public Accountant Larry Aldrich is living at 97 Bradford St., Rye, N. Y.; Richard Wilder is claims supervisor of the Social Security Board, Manchester, N. H.; and Jim Stevens is with the Otselic Valley Nat'l Bank, So. Otselic, N. Y.
Walter Aylsworth reports his address as R. F. D. 2, Princess Anne, Md., and his business as operator of a summer resort; Wilbur Johnson is at 428 Walnut St., New Orleans, La.; Chuck Eaton has a new address at 111 Gordon Rd., Waban, Mass.; Milt Tucker is an architect living at 1511 22d St., N.W., Washington, D. C.; and Wally Baker is now at 3090 Woodbury Rd., Shaker Heights, Ohio.
The approaching football season is the breeding time of class news. Just now we are destitute except for the above and a few words about our coming Twentieth Reunion. We have heard so much from 'l7 and '18 about how colossal were their affairs that we have, got scared and are starting good and early with the business of making them look their own puny size. It is Spider's desire to have things pretty well organized before the Harvard game. With this in mind the Executive Committee is now being formed. Your President has appointed Louie Munro and Elmer Pilsbury co-chairmen, and before these words reach you they will have their committee together and will have had several meetings. Munro as you know has served as chairman of reunion committees since you were a small boy and has the experience of the ages laid away in his bald skull in neat strata, which disclose to the geologically minded the history of the class. Pilsbury brings to the job a fresh viewpoint, a genius for organization, and a mean ability to play the piano, should the committee wish to sing at any of its meetings. Start saving now and get braced for the pressure to be laid on.
The only other tidbit of news was gleaned from a recent article in the Boston Post. It dealt with the life of Congressman Joe Martin of Massachusetts, chairman of the Republican National Congressional Campaign Committee, and stated that he had wanted to go to Dartmouth but could not, and so chose the next best thing in sending his two brothers there—one of these is, in case you wouldn't know, E. E. (Spider to you) Martin, our illustrious class president.
