Vermont

DARTMOUTH ALUMNI in Vermont gave a sample of what Dartmouth football and campus life are like to a dozen preparatory school boys at a special meeting held on the evening of Feb. 2? in the National Life Insurance Company's assembly hall, Montpelier. The boys were the guests of the alumni for the showing of the movies on "Football of 1937" and several reels from "Life at Dartmouth."

At a business meeting, Vermont alumni nominated Richard E. Pritchard '14 for the Alumni Council to succeed himself, a fine nominating speech being made by Willsie E. Brisbin Jr. '29 of Burlington who recommended Candidate Pritchard "despite the fact that he is my cousin." It was voted to assesg $1 dues on all members of the Vermont Alumni Association and the treasurer was instructed to collect it. The treasurer's report showed a considerable deficit amassed.

Phil Conti '37, now teaching at West Lebanon, N. H., high school, was at the meeting (his folks live in Barre) and Phil served as raconteur for the football pictures. Phil, who as starting player on the Big Green in 1935 and 1936 knew all the players, added materially in interpreting the game.

Barre alumni brought up several members of the Spaulding High school basketball team, among them Phil's kid brother, Reno Conti, and former Dartmouth Capt. John McKernan's brother, Gordon. The Spaulding boys the next night came through with a rousing victory in the crucial game of the season. The Dartmouth spirit, no doubt.

Barre has added two Dartmouth men to her thirty already ready and willing to Wah Whoo Wah. Harold Goldberg '37 is in the movie business and Winston N. Prescott '25 came up from Nashua, N. H., as assistant manager of the Montgomery Ward store.
