Washington, D. C.
A REVIEW of the Stanford game was given at the weekly luncheon, Dec. 13, by Warren Kendall '99, President of the Alumni Council, traveler extraordinary and eye-witness of the game. Christmas Week the annual luncheon was given for undergraduates home from College, with an attendance of grads and undergrads of nearly 100. Stewart Barber '34, who recently passed the District bar exam, was presented to the District of Columbia Court of Appeals by one of the numerous Dartmouth lawyers on January 10. Safford '30, is the Methodist minister at Garrett Park, Md., a suburb of Washington.
Clyde Hall '26, formerly secretary to Senator Brown, is also a resident of Garrett Park. Dave McCoy '18, returned from a tour of Florida exuded the profound cogitation that he liked summer vacations better. The bowling team, which to date is having one of its less brilliant seasons, performed brilliantly, however, at the annual banquet of the Interfraternity league, with Hobbs '33, Worthington '33, Barto '29, Pendleton '15, Jim Pimper '33, Bob Lyle '29 and maybe one or two this writer, who crashed the party, doesn't remember Herb Woods '10, spent Christmas in Conn, after sending out his usual Christmas card with the undecipherable message. Smiling Charlie Armes '34, working in St. Louis with the Association of American Railways was home for Christmas and brought his father, a Princeton man, to the luncheon. The interviewing of candidates for entrance to Dartmouth has begun with some unusually fine boys applying to Warren Kendall. A newcomer to Washington is Howard M. Shaffer '17, Commander, Supply Corps, U. S. Navy, who has been assigned by the Department to a shore cruise. Howard was glimpsed at the Cornell game with Mrs. Shaffer. Billy Wallis '94, has been doing some traveling during the last year in New England and Florida but showed up at the Christmas lunch to mingle with the boys, many of whom he started on the way to Dartmouth. Cal Milans '33, sent out a Christmas card containing a photo that might have been taken in New Hampshire, a photographic gem of trees and snow. Whenever George Morris '11, and his two coadjutors Paul Hannah '27 and Fred Pearce '15, come to lunch the conversation always picks up. Paul Redington '00, living in Falls Church, Va., has been in bad health for over a year and is much missed, as he was formerly one of our regulars. Larry Reeves '33, is one of those demon insurance men now. Bill Woodruff '31 has left the Washington Post and is doing publicity for a trade association. Duke Keegin '24 doesn't come around often enough, being one of those busy patent lawyers, but we see him on the street now and then. The Washington alumni are not settling down for a long winter's nap, but expect to be very much alive every Tuesday at the Annapolis, 12:30, and all alumni who visit Washington for pleasure or business should phone Duke Barto '29, at Metropolitan 9900 and pay us a visit.
