It is a privilege to be able to say "howdy" to each member of the class at this time, if in no other manner than through the columns of this MAGAZINE. Much as he would like to, it is next to impossible for your Secretary to contact each one of you during the year either in person or by letter; and yet he still clings to his fondest hope, which is that he will receive a word from each and every Fifteener between now and this coming June. Don't let him down.
And now an attempt at news, real or synthetic. Stan Llewellyn, manager of the Waterlee mill of the Kendall Company of Camden, S. C., sends word that he is hungry for the sight of good Dartmouth men, Fifteeners especially. It does not seem possible, but rumor has it that Stan is just about as bald-headed as is your Secretary. No regrets are there, Stan? .... Bernard O'Day, who for years past has been located in Kenmore, N. Y., turns up all of a sudden in the Canal Zone, and is connected with the Public Works Dept. in Balboa Larry Leavitt '25, head- master of Vermont Academy, Saxtons River, Vt., informs us that Chan Foster's son, Stephen, is doing fine work as a stu- dent there, preparatory to entering Dart- mouth. That's fine R. F. D. Pleas- anton, Buckhorn, New Mexico, is his address, so says none other than Milt Ghee. We have known for years past that ranch- ing was Milt's hobby, but we did not ex- pect him to make a business of it just yet. Anyhow, we O.K. the move. And speaking of Milt brings up an incident mentioned in Red Grange's recent book, "Zuppke of Illinois." Previous to one of the games while coaching at Oak Park High, Zuppke in his customary pep talk stressed the im- portance of "hitting their man a?id hittinghim hard." Milt took this seriously, and on the first play met his man with an upper-cut to the chin, a tactic not entirely acceptable to the officials, Milt being slated for the showers. Zuppke prevailed, however, and Milt's football career had started Word comes to us that Ed O'Shea, formerly of Plolyoke, Mass., has taken up residence in Brooklyn, N. Y., his address being No. 579 Carlton Ave Art Rowe, of that wide-awake DDD gang, ls pursuing his calling of chemist with the DuPonts, at Old Hickory, Tenn., and can be reached at 804 Clark St. Another old-timer has come to life,— none other than Ralph Davenport. Ralph is in Washington, D. C., and is living at the Hotel Commodore Phil Murdock, for some years past with the CocoCola Cos., Chicago, is now associated with the Preferred Mill Products Cos., 166 W. Jackson Blvd., Chicago .... and the new address of one of our good Bostonese, Bud Whitney, is 1980 Commonwealth Ave., Boston Stu Hill writes us from Denver in his usual cheery and optimistic style that he is now a bona-fide resident of that City. Stu has been none too well for several years back, and decided that Colorado could do him no harm, so last August he and family went bag and baggage to Denver. Apparently no harm has been done, for he writes that they are pleasantly located, have made some good friends, he feels much better, and is encouraged that the move was a good one. What more can we ask?
For the benefit of those who have not been receiving the MAGAZINE during the year we might say that an organization is already being perfected for our twenty- fifth in 1940. Bill Huntress is chairman of the general committee, and he advises us that Don Bennink, as chairman of pub- licity, will fire a few opening guns shortly. Charlie Griffith is chairman of a special committee whose aim is to build up some sort of a permanent class fund for the benefit of the College, beginning with our twenty-fifth. More will be heard from these gentlemen at later dates.
Just as we are writing these notes word comes from Walt Meader of the death of Phil Smith. We are extremely sorry that no further information is at hand, so a more extended notice will have to await the next issue. Needless to say, the sympathy of the class is extended to Phil's family and close friends.
Norvie Milmore is in a stew, for which no one can blame him,—we must blame ourselves, that's all. Of those who have been on the active list one time and another only about 25% of the class have come into the fold this year on the class dues and MAGAZINE combination. It can be nothing but carelessness,—both the class and the magazine are worthy of support. Let's somehow get hold of ourselves before another year starts in.
