1933
Secretary, 31 Frederick St., Waterbury, Conn.
At this time of the year we are apt to find our thoughts turning to dear old Cambridge. You remember the Charles purling brightly between the green river banks; the happy cries of the Business School students at their simple games; the bustle (keep it clean) of Harvard Square, and above it all, the sun gleaming brightly in reflection from the spires and towers of Harvard.
(Someone has just remarked, after leaning over our shoulder, that we have forgotten that it is for the DARTMOUTH ALUMNI MAGAZINE that this piece is being written—not the Harvard Alumni Bulletin. And besides, it's all written down in NotTo Eat Not For Love.)
Well, if any clash of ideologies is likely to result from the crimson coloring of the opening paragraph indignant readers may read "Connecticut" for "Charles," "Main Street" for "Harvard Square," and "Dartmouth" for "Harvard."
1933 IN BOSTON
What really got us started on the above tack was a letter from Don Doherty (205 Kelton St., Allston, Mass.), which was significant (1) because it was the first letter of spring and (2) because it bore news of a meeting of the members of the class in Boston.
It goes: "The Boston gang of '33, fifteen strong, held the annual 'Triple "B" Session' —Beer, Biscuits, and Bull—last Saturday night (March 29). Suffice it to say—everyone enjoyed himself, although we were disappointed that more fellows did not see fit to come or reply to the announcements.
"Those present were: Karl Scheibe, Rog Moody, Eddie Home, Norm Erlandson, Vin Merrill, Bun Mudge, 'Colonel' Thompson, Walt Watson, Bob Watson, Johnnie Donovan, Ralph Keyes, Norm Payne, George Rideout, Whit Kimball, and Don Doherty.
"The meeting voted that it was desirous that some action be taken (1) On a class subscription to the ALUMNI MAGAZINE, (2) the creation of a Tenth Reunion Fund.
"The latter would entail a contribution of five dollars a year for the three years preceding the Tenth. The purpose of the Fund would be to make the collection of the class reunion tax somewhat less painful than it now is."
I probably should not mention that Don ends his letter with a plug for the Ediphone Company, by whom he is employed.
I he name Rideout mentioned above recalls to mind a clipping from the Bulletin of Til ton School which was sent to us several weeks ago. The subject matter was a letter "to Tilton Alumni everywhere," containing many a loving reference to "old T. S." and signed by the aforementioned Rideout as Counselor on Admissions. A competent-young-alumnus type picture of the voluble George was featured.
THE FUND
You have doubtless received Page Worthington's second issue of the '33 News-Letter.
We have been considering turning over to our legal department the collection of fund contributions. There would be a substantial saving in stationery and mailing expenses. You would receive a first letter and then if no money was forthcoming in thirty days, you would be served with process in the good old-fashioned way.
If you would prefer to have your contribution" extracted by other than legal means, now is the time to submit yourselves.
Bill Hitchcock while inquiring shyly about the state of our pocketbook bears the news that Hank Dericks is helping Hegman-Harris Co. build some of the structures at the New York Fair.
Bill saw Jack Robinson in New York recently. The latter is living at the Frontenac Apartments in Fleetwood, N. Y., is still with the American Airlines, and was still wearing the soaking Reunion costume and soggy cigar a la Storrs Pond when last seen.
LA PRIMAVERA DI SOUTH ORANGE
Even in these days of regimentation and bureaucracy, spring manages to push its way into New Jersey and to bring its light and warmth to the over-regulated lives of the citizens of South Orange.
April must have filled Bowman Shyvers Ellis Jr. with a new confidence in the future, because on the first day of that month he became engaged to marry Miss Margaret Maude Vanston of S. O. Miss Vanston is a Smith gal. Mr. Ellis is with Montgomery Ward & Co. in New York. (Perfume Counter.)
