Baltimore

BY THE TIME these notes are printed the outstanding Dartmouth event of the year in these parts will be a thing of the past, but we are still looking forward to it and making plans to contribute to its success. Although there has been no great amount of publicity up to the present (October 8) concerning the DartmouthNavy football game to be played here on the 14th, there is evidence that a goodly number of Dartmouth supporters will be on hand in the fact that the large block of choice seats placed at the disposal of Don McPhail's committee has been oversubscribed. On September 13th our members were guests of the Naval Academy Alumni at a meeting which was made an exclusively Dartmouth-Navy affair. Mr. Langdon D. Pickering, former Commander in the U. S. Navy, and father of Fred Pickering, Dartmouth '3B, presided most efficiently and graciously, calling for brief remarks from officers of the Dartmouth Club, officers of the Navy Club, coaches of the Navy team, Captain McKee, Director of Athletics at the Academy, and several representatives of Baltimore civic interests and publicity agencies. All agreed that the game would be a good one.

Our invitation to one and all to attend our tea dance after the game has been accepted by at least one Hanoverian, Sydney Junkins 'B7, who writes me that he is game for the tea, if not for the dance.

"Winter Carnival," the Dartmouth carnival picture came to Baltimore in September. On the opening night our president, Bob Hazard '29, and the theatre manager put on an interesting little sideshow, an actual long-distance telephone conversation on the stage of the theatre with the producer, Walter Wanger 'l5, in Los Angeles, winding up with an invitation to the latter to fly across to Baltimore to see the Navy game.

New faces we are glad to see at our meetings are those of Emlyn Marsteller '3B, Howard Mickey '3B, James Miller '3B, Max Wolff '32, and John Kindergan '3B.
