Worcester

ON TUESDAY NOON, December 28th, the Dartmouth Club of Worcester were hosts to the undergraduates and applicants for admission to the College from Worcester County. A splendid group of 21 undergraduates, 11 applicants, and 34 members answered the roll. After the serious business of eating and chatting, our President, Gordon S. Butler '30, called the meeting to order to introduce the speakers, Walter S. Young 'ox, and Marshall E. Roper 37.

Mr. Young, who is superintendent of schools in Worcester, can always be depended upon for a fine talk and did not fail us. After touching briefly on the high spots of the history of Dartmouth, he went on to explain the privilege of membership in the Dartmouth Fellowship and the increasing responsibilities incurred therein. We were all extremely interested to hear him say that in order to select the proper students for enrollment in the various high school courses offered under his jurisdiction that he was using a selective process system patterned very closely after Dartmouth's. In view of Mr. Young's position, it seems particularly fitting that he should give the talk addressed primarily to the undergraduates and applicants. They gave every evidence of being keenly interested in everything he had to say.

Marshall Roper, who this year is completing his second year of Tuck School, gave us a resume of the athletic situation in Hanover. He covered all the major sport teams and by adding bits of campus gossip here and there gave a talk that was of great interest to all of us who are other- wise dependent upon the sporting pages of the newspapers for such information.

At the conclusion of the meeting it seemed the unanimous opinion that it was the best of similar meetings for many years. —SHERMAN BALDWIN '23.
