1901*

Frank Lowe was laid up through the month of September with a bad case of sciatica in his back left leg (or so he says) but is now getting around a little.

Col. Frank Halliday is now located in Atlanta, Georgia, where he is Corps Area Judge Advocate, Fourth Corps Area, but he expects to retire from the Army next January.

An interesting letter is at hand from Bob Leavens, and the following paragraph is of interest to all. "Sometime I hope to have the pleasure of taking a 1901 man to our cabin in the mountains. It is located on Echo Lake in the high Sierras, at an elevation of 7500 feet, and on a Cove known as Dartmouth Cove. Echo Lake is in Eldorado National Forest. The United States Forest Service as you may know, has a liberal policy of providing desirable location for summer residence purposes at a rental price which is hardly more than nominal. We have the use of fifty foot frontage on the Lake, a grove of Lodgepole pines, a fertile meadow, an unfailing stream of water, and cliffs rise at the rear to an elevation of an additional thousand feet. In 1925 Frank Wentworth '03, Selden Smith '98, and I signed for the use of adjacent lots at this location. At the time of the signing I pointed to the location of the place on the map and asked the forest ranger the name of that cove. 'lt hasn't any name,' he replied; 'you folks can name it.' Without an instant's hesitation and in fact without having thought it out in advance, we asked to have it called Dartmouth Cove, and it is so known and named on the maps. The stream is called Redington Brook, named by us for Paul Redington '00, who at that time was Forest Supervisor for all the National forests of this region."

The usual Family class party was held at the Algonquin Club, Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, after the Harvard-Dartmouth Game, Saturday, October 28th. There were not as many out as usual, we missed the regulars that are usually in attendance. But a good time was had by all. Jim Kimball, aided and abetted by Chan Cox, was in his old form, and had his usual supply of stories, told as only Jim can tell them. Eddie Gibbons and Jack Andrews had some personal experiences to relate. It was an opportunity for Tommie Remsen to introduce Inez to the class, and we only hope she likes us as well as we liked her. Tommie's rendition of Alouette was never better.

The thanks of the class are due Johnnie and Alma Ward for the privilege of using this now very familar meeting place, and its excellent service.

The Boston Herald editorially remarks, In explaining why he favors the repeal ofthe embargo against the export of arms,ammunition, and planes, President Hopkins of Dartmouth used an expressionwhich goes to the very heart of the Sovietand Nazi doctrines. He spoke of "systemsof government which maintain themselvesinternally by assassination and establishment of medieval serfdom and externallyby terrorism and war." That is an apt characterization of what President Hopkinscalls the "Berlin-Moscow code" and he expressed the views of a great many whenhe declared that "neutrality is a relativeterm" and added "I wish such legitimateadvantage as may exist for one group orthe other to work for the sponsors of peaceas an international code rather thanagainst them, as now." President Hopkinshas said more in a few words than therepealists and the embargoists have saidin a hundred long speeches and bulkybooks.

Rockies and returned by the way of California and the Grand Canyon.

William Carroll Hill attended the annual meeting of the Amateur Skating Union of the United States of which he is honorary president, in Chicago, last month. During his visit he called on Philip Fox who showed him over the Museum of Science and Industry of which Fox is the director.

A sad accident caused the death of the wife of Sewall E. Newman on October seventeenth, when she was caught in a brush fire in the Middlesex Fells, within a short distance of her home in Winchester, Massachusetts, and burned to death. As Mabel D. Corey, she and Newman were married in 1906. Two daughters survive. "Rock" is engaged in the real estate and insurance business, and has had offices in Boston for many years. He is also a former member of the board of selectmen of Winchester. The sympathy of the class will go out to him for his bereavement.
