1908

From

Larry Griswold is slowly recovering from a long illness. He is spending the winter with his wife and daughter in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and expects to return to his home in Batavia, N. Y., about May x. Larry writes that he has made marked improvement in the southern sunshine, attends occasional horse races in Miami, goes to the movies, loves the warm breezes, and on the whole is a very contented invalid, though eager to get back to work.

Ralph S. Pease denies that he has made any news, but writes that he sees the classmates in Boston occasionally. In case you didn't know, Ralph is a successful stationer in Boston's Back Bay.

Dr. Clayton Royce, now at 102 a Park St., Jacksonville, Fla., joins Griswold in bragging about the Florida climate, and says he is now counting his age from Sept. 11, 1934, when he "stood off a coronary occlusion." Any classmate who has ever stood off a coronary occlusion, even a little young one, knows what that means.

George Squier's boy Bill was one of 20 juniors chosen for the Dragon senior society last month in Hanover. Hal Snow's boy Sam has been conspicuous in the front line of the champion Dartmouth hockey

team this year. Mike Stearns says what we wrote about him for the February issue was a gross overstatement. Also he is anxious that classmates know his firm is Shulton. That's how we wrote it, but some editor, typesetter, or proofreader changed it to Shelton.

The Wichita Eagle of March 5 carried a picture and long story about Dr. Harold O. Rugg, who was to deliver an address in the Kansas city on March 17. Except for slightly thinner hair on top, and a bit more on the lip, the picture looked just like the "Rugg, H. O." who led the class in German and mathematics in 1904.

Francis Asbury Robinson of Des Moines was in Hanover for a few hours the last of February, in conference with college officials on problems of landscaping.

If you spend an hour in Rome (N. Y. or Italy); Syracuse (N. Y. or Greece); Rio, Moscow, or Madagascar, the fellow you're most likely to meet is Tat Badger. He's all over the map. Here's an extract from the letter he wrote during a stop-over in Boston between South America and Europe:

"Mrs. Badger and I took a vacation cruise on the Nieuw Amsterdam, leaving New York on January 14 and going to Rio, one of our ports of call. We had the distinct pleasure of being greeted by 'General' Knox, who had made all arrangements for motor guide, at cetera, which contributed greatly to the enjoyment of our trip while in Rio. Unfortunately, the 'General' had an attack of grip which confined him to the house, and so we did not see much of him. He seemed to have fully recovered, however, before we left, and joins me in sending greetings to the class.

"You may have noticed the article in the February issue of Fortune called the Houdry Invention, which deals with a new method of cracking petroleum. We have been fortunate in being connected with the development, and have had a very busy time meeting the demands made on our organization in connection therewith, as we were fortunate in being selected to handle, largely, the commercial phases thereof.

"Alice and I are sailing for Europe February 2g on a business trip. I do not know just how long we will be away. If I find anything of interest, I'll drop you a line."
