The responses to the Committee's letter have been most gratifying, and it looks as though the parade to Hanover will assume the same proportions it did in that glorious fall of 1929 to make, what Don Cobleigh called, "One of thesilliest-looking bunch of freshmen that hasever hit the town." We have over one hundred definite "yesses," some fifteen wives, and even a couple of friends. On the basis of the cards the program had better stay pretty much as it is. Our Secretary Monagan asks why we shouldn't see Dewey in the nude, and your very able Committee will take care of arrangements. "Sigh" Sturm, who will be remembered by any of us who used to plug along on the third, fourth, fifth, or sixth freshman football teams, announces he is bringing "a perfectly good wife and miscellaneouschildren." A few of the outstanding members of the class who have signified their intentions of being here are Jack Trost, who is coming all the way from Wisconsin, Ward Donner, Ken Spang, Charlie Schell, along with Charlie Jones, and Bill King, Danny Rollins, whose duties are already well outlined, Jack Robinson, who is bringing a wife, Bill Quinn from Canton, Ohio, Harry Osborne, Johnny Meek Jr., who has been here recently to extol the virtues of the Yale Law School, Hal Mackey and no wife, Hawgood, Moates, Hanley, McKee, the one and only McKane, Cliff Johnson, who is also to be remembered as a member of one of the various freshman football teams, Frank Hardy, whom we hope will assist with the music, the great Hagan, Pete Grace, all the way from Missouri, Ed Foley, who along with McKane, McGregor, Dewey, Douglas, and Neibling, will keep things going, John Davidson, Don Woods from Chicago, Johnny Faegre from Minneapolis, and a host of others. There has been a slight addition to the program which will make Friday more interesting, and that is a ball game with California, which has been changed from Thursday, the sixteenth, to Friday, the seventeenth. The picnic site has been thoroughly gone over. The tents are all ordered. The beer is contracted for. The sound truck is already signed up. And the whole town is waiting in anticipation. We can't let them down. All we need is about seventy more definite "yesses" to have a recordbreaking reunion. Those of you who haven't sent cards, please keep them coming as it will help us considerably in arranging the show.
