Manhattan racketeers had best not fall afoul of PECK BOYNTON, whose appointment as an assistant was announced Jan. 29 by Thomas E. Dewey, district attorney of New York County. After graduation from Columbia Law School, Peck became associated with the firm of Cuthell, Appleby, Osterhout & Mills. The D. A.'s staff of 72 assistants was selected from 5,000 applications.

That tremor felt in New Haven on the morning of Feb. 2 was occasioned by news of the arrival of a potential Green backfield threat in the person of BILL MCCALL JR. The younger McCall was born in Hudson, N. Y., where Wild Bill is in the business of manufacturing refrigerator cases. The McCalls already have a daughter, Harriet, aged four.

This news from another resident of Hudson, Beany Thorn '3l, who also reports that Bill has been playing basketball this winter. Despite a waxing paunch "his team worked up into the finals oftheir league, and from what the nativessay, Bill is still damn good. He is an excellent tennis player, and relative to his oldkicking leg, I spent all one afternoon trying to catch one."

DON RICHARDSON, who also shoots baskets in his very limited spare time, rushed on to the court one evening recently to play the last two periods of a fast game at the "Y." Not until the game was over and they were both in the locker room did Don recognize one of the speedier of his opponents— Russ HOLM. RUSS is in New York working for Arthur Kudner, an advertising agency with offices in Radio City, where JOHNNY SCHNEIDER is also employed.

Don also encountered JIM WAKELIN on a recent trip to Connecticut. An instructor at Yale, Jim lives at the Graduate Club and is hard at work finishing up his Ph. D., culminating his studies at Cambridge andi on the Continent.

After a term as sports editor of the Forf Madison Democrat, NED DISQUE is now on the staff of the Waterloo Daily Courier at Waterloo, lowa, where he is "filling in as night editor and doing a little work on the city side." Ned came to his present job by a circuitous route. Graduating from the Missouri School of Journalism in the dreary year of 1933, he landed in Chicago as a district circulation manager for the Curtis Publishing Company. Late in the winter of '35 he "got mad enough to quit," and in the spring went to New Mexico, where he had a swell time selling canned goods for the Stokely-Van Camp Company, and seeing the country at the same time. Subsequently he "pitched in to work at a super-market in Albuquerque for a few months. Next came an offer with the Goodrich Company in Burlington, lowa. It sounded too good to be true, and it was." After about four months Ned "hopped to the nearest town where their was a daily paper," and began his present line of work.

Ned corresponds pretty regularly with LEON WARNER, who is married to a Smith girl and in the hardware business in Minneapolis. The Warners live in Wayzata, Minn., scene of ED JUDD'S marriage some months back.

Among the policy-pushers GRANNY BROWNING is with New York Life at 60 East 42c! St. and STU THATFORD is with Liberty Mutual. JIM HANNAN is in the claim department of the Hardware Mutual Casualty Cos. in Newark, N. J., and lives in Jackson Heights, L. I. DON SIMPSON is also selling insurance in Newark, and residing at 3 Wooten Road, Essex Falls, N. J., having come East from Cleveland, where he was with Sears Roebuck.

A Chicago class dinner held early in February showed a preponderance of professional talent. Among the legal minds attending were JOHN WRIGHT, DAVE STERN, 808 ACKERBERG, TOM KIDDOO, and FRANK JABUREK. DR. JOE BENNETT and DR. HANDY AUTEN held forth for the medicos, while FRANK WESTHEIMER represented the teaching fraternity. Among the "unskilled workers" at hand were RAY BROOKBY, 808 COCHRANE, STAN LEACH, GENE FITCH, SAM MOORE, and JOHN SHELDON, the last-named supplying this report. The dinner was voted a great success, and plans were made to have a mixed party at the time the musical clubs come out in the spring.

Sheldon reports having seen a goodly quota of '32's. "Every Wednesday evening," he writes, "I bowl on a team with BUNNY RICH, STEVE HARWOOD, and WayThompson From time to time I havelunch with DAVE KIRBY, whose engagementto Adelaide Ball of Winnetka was recentlyannounced. Ev MEAD also just announcedhis engagement. BILL MORTON is in andout of Chicago with his Chase Bank job,and recently spent a couple of weeks inNew York. JIMMY SWARTCHILD is still inthe' wholesale jewelry business and alwaysvery busy.

"Just before Christmas RED TUCKERcame through here on his way to Nebraska,Utah, and points west. Several weeks agoAL KEYWORTH was here for the FurnitureShow, and a few days later JERK ELLIOTwas in town from Montana for the samepurpose. Jerk was one plane ahead of theone that crashed out west a few weeks ago.

"CHARLIE DOERR, who has been in Milwaukee since June, is leaving that cityabout the 20th, and for the next couple ofyears may be moved around the country.His immediate destination is somewhereon the Pacific Coast."

WHIT DANIELS writes in further emendation of last month's report from HOWIE SARGEANT on New Year's in Hanover.

"The skiing was excellent," he reports, "and to slumber again in the quiet comfortof the Tower Room was a joy I'd almostforgotten."

Whit also comments favorably on the new order of things at the Hanover Inn, particularly with reference to the New Year's partner obtained for him from Woodstock by the Sayres. "That she was25 years old, considerably more than passing fair, and still uninitiated to Dartmouthis a biystery to me," he writes.

Of classmates encountered, Whit relates: "DENNEY is teaching and studying towardsa Ph.D. Lou CRONE, he told me, has apoultry farm and is managing to makeboth ends meet—which is indeed creditable in that occupation. Sargeant is editorof the new Federal Home Loan BankBoard Review. BILL LEVI / ran into browsing around the library. He and his wife areliving in Norwich, where many others ofthe faculty have migrated—among themWarner Bentley, Maurice Longhurst, andAlex Laing. Herb West's new modernistichouse is one of the show places of Hanover.Doc Bowler is retired but vigorous as ever,and a bad man to compete with in a pokergame."

MARVE CHANDLER is recovering from a scalp injury sustained when he fell half way down the serpentine Thunderbolt Trail on the northeast slope of Mount Greylock in the Eastern amateur downhill championship, held on Feb. 6.

ADE NITSCHELM, whose "Glenwood-on- the-Saco" is in the heart of the New Hampshire ski country, writes of much activity in the Pinkham Notch region.

"There are all kinds of trails and slopesaround us, and we have one of the best skischools in the country a few miles away.Hence we have been doing a very goodwinter business. We had ideal skiing during the holidays. JOE BOLDT and wife wereup for that week with some friends. I spenta few days over in Hanover recently andsaw quite a bit of DICK STOIBER, who isteaching geology. He and five other instructors are living very much in style inProf. Vernon's house for the year; he hadanother traveling summer, visiting all theScandinavian countries and Russia, busying himself with geology all the time. BRUNO SAIA is holding forth at his new College Inn, and reported good business andgeneral satisfaction at living in Hanover. FRANK GILBERT spent the summer in theoffice of the Stevens House at Lake Placid,and this winter is at the Forest Hills Hotelat Augusta, Ga.; he is going strong in thehotel business. CHARLIE MEYERS is in N. Y.with his father in the Globe Coat andApron Supply Cos. Up here for a week inFebruary, he stopped to see BILL LIESON in Springfield and Hanover on the way."

Ade furnishes the belated news that he and wife have been enjoying parenthood for some nine months (Ruth, born April 7). The Nitschelms have an indefinite plan to spend a month or two this spring taking their own suburban on an auto-camping trip to Mexico, and would like another couple to come along for company and to share expenses.

More news about skiing activity is forwarded by JOE BYRAM, now in Worcester with the Mechanics National Bank.

"CARL WARD and I have done quite alot of skiing this winter around the neigh-boring trails on Wachusett, Peterboroyandalso Bristol, N. H. Carl is with the StateMutual Life Insurance Cos. I see BEN HILL now and then. He's with the MassachusettsProtective Insurance Cos. and bowls ontheir bowling team in the Business Men'sLeague. We have a team, too, in the bank;in fact Ben and I bowled against eachother the other day. Ben's a better bridgeplayer than he is a bowler!

"I bumped into 'T' THIBAULT the otherday. He is here in Worcester and is connected with the Norton Company. He saidhe was engaged to a girl who lives, I believe, in Detroit; she is teaching school atthe present time, but they are planning tobe married some time in the spring. I saw BEN DREW over New Year's when we bothstayed at the 'Black and Blue Trail Smashers' Camp' at Bristol, N. H."
