Class of 1923
velopments and information that you will want to have will be chiefly available in the MAGAZINE.
eral Alumni Luncheon is worth the trip to Hanover.
To some readers this will be the first copy of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE that you have seen in quite a time. Those who are consistent subscribers know and enjoy the full value of the MAGAZINE, and those who are not subscribers this year are receiving this copy at the expense of the class. There are two reasons for this action, and while it takes a substantial chunk out of the class treasury, we hope that the results will be more than worth while. First of all, it is our desire to reacquaint you with the ALUMNI MAGAZINE and let you see for yourself that it contains a great many articles, pictures, and news in which you are interested. Furthermore, a bargain rate is available to you for all remaining issues this year. For the small sum of $1 you can get about $20 worth of good reading. The second reason for sending this free copy is so that you may be informed regarding plans for our Fifteenth Reunion next June, and will know that future de- On Friday night of reunion week-end it is planned to have a dance in conjunction with the classes of '18 and '28. On Saturday morning a baseball game .will be arranged with one of the other reunioning classes, and on Saturday afternoon we will provide Hanover with one of its best street parades. In the evening there will be a class banquet. For those who care to there will be plenty of time for golf and bridge. The class will be housed all together in one dormitory, in front of which will be erected a large-size tent and in which will always be found a goodly supply of beer on tap. On Sunday there will be an outing at some appropriate location near Hanover, and Joe Pollard, who is chairman of a committee arranging this activity, has already put in a requisition for a bright, sunshiny day.
Mrs. Ted Caswell is chairman of the wives' reunion committee. She has appointed about ten assistants, whose duty it will be to see that wives have as much fun at reunion as their husbands. In this connection she is arranging a dinner party to be held on the same evening that the class banquet takes place, and it is expected that the group will have a theatre party thereafter.
If you don't have a good time during the reunion week-end, there will be only one reason for it, namely, that you didn't attend the reunion. If the past 15 years have made your bones brittle so that it is inadvisable to undertake the business of stealing from second base to third, or carrying a bass drum in the parade, reunion will Still be a source of great satisfaction for renewing old friendships and making new ones.
There will also be the usual Commencement activities, including a concert by the Glee Club and a dramatic presentation by the Dartmouth Players. The President's reception is always delightful, and the gen- Pin a dollar bill to the subscription form which is part of the insert found in another place in this MAGAZINE. Get reacquainted—and point towards Hanover for Friday, June 17.
The first request for a reservation has been received, and when it comes from such a distant spot as Bellingham, Wash., that is news. Nate Carver, who is secretary and treasurer of the Warnick Lumber Company of that city, states that he has never before attended a reunion, but has positive plans for being on hand for the Fifteenth. There is no question about it, he is certainly in line for winning the long distance prize, and with such enthusiasm as Nate has displayed, I am sure that the Fifteenth will be our biggest and best reunion.
Ward Hilton, who is in the insurance business in Chicago, recently sent me a clipping from the National Underwriter which displayed a picture of a very business-like looking individual whose name is Paul F. McKown, and in support of the aforementioned business-like countenance, the following statement was made:
"Paul F. McKown, who was recentlyappointed Pacific Coast fire manager forthe St. Paul F. & M., has been located inSan Francisco for his company just a year.Heretofore he has been assistant managerof all underwriting departments in thePacific Coast division. Previously for ayear he was located at the head office asmanager of a new production department.He started with the St. Paul in the headoffice in 1923 after graduating from Dartmouth College. He gained experience withvarious underwriting departments andhad a brief experience as special agent inVirginia, District of Columbia, and Maryland, with headquarters in Richmond.While in the Wisconsin field, he was aleader and served as most loyal gander ofthe Blue Goose."
Did you ever hear of Starr Bailey, or Craven Coulter? Sherm Baldwin says that he hasn't, and it was only after an exhaustive investigation that he learned that these two gentlemen were none other than Fred Bailey and Ike Coulter. It seems that they were attending a party some place or other, all sober, which made the whole thing more confusing to Sherm. Fred has deserted the investment counsel field, and is now a radio advertising manager in charge of station WORL with headquarters at the Myles Standish Hotel in Boston. He is now living on Howard Ave., Braintree, Mass. Ike Coulter is a reporter for the Clinton Daily Item and is the father of one son 11, another 9, and a daughter six months.
The following item regarding Henry Moore is from Sherm's recent letter:
"Every year about this time it seemsmost fitting to comment on the really marvelous job Henry Moore is doing as wintersports editor of the Boston Herald. Froma very meager beginning, which only afew years ago consisted of one smallweekly column, Hen now writes a largedaily article and on each Friday has afull page devoted exclusively to wintersports. As a result of a lot of ground work,he has lined up throughout New Englanda group of competent observers who report daily snow conditions to him, andthere is not a new wrinkle in ski equipment or ski terrain that misses his attention. Hen is an ardent and expert skier,so that his news is not only interesting butabsolutely authentic and is more or lessa bible for New England skiers."
FIFTEEN YEARS AGO THIS MONTH
February 27 Old Timers' Day was originated. '23 started a tradition. There was a dog show at the watering trough. One entry was an assembly of old bones mounted suitably on skis (barrel staves).
The Carnival show was "The Sahara Derby." Book and Lyrics by T. H. McKnight and S. J. Flanigan. Music by H. A. Sullivan. Production staged by H. H. Mills.
Officers of the Dartmouth Outing Club who put on a great Winter Carnival were H. H. Bishop, president; J. R. Titcomb, vice-president; and R. C. Roberts, secretary.
Tim Cullen was badly hurt in the Penn game, which Dartmouth lost 17-19. (Tim is now a magistrate in New York City.)
From Johnny Foster's diary. "Feb. 75. 30 below zero."
