THE REPORT INTENDED for the last issue of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE was lost in the pre-holiday rush. This being the case, a bit of ancient history must be rehashed first in order that the record may be kept straight.

Somewhere back there, we were visited by Don Cobleigh and the glee club. The Barbary Coast aided in rounding out for the assembled Dartmouths a most enjoyable evening. Specialty numbers, Dartmouth songs and more serious numbers were mixed judiciously by Mr. Cobleigh, who displayed a showmanship that would do credit to Billy Rose.

Prof. Tobin's talk at another Hanover speaker program went off as planned and those present were amply rewarded by the fund of information, and clarity of presentation displayed by the Professor. His subject, "M Day," was most apropos of present-day conditions.

Another of the Hanover Speaker programs is planned for the near future. For the benefit of local alumni who haven't attended one of these programs, may we urge attention to the idea behind the programs and the excellence with which the idea is being carried out. In each case, so far, a Dartmouth professor has spoken before an audience of Boston alumni on a very timely subject. The vein of future talks may vary to the literary or humourous to suit the wishes of local alumni.

Also, and most important, the annual alumni dinner is due soon. Plans are already well under way for a banquet that will meet the high standards set by past reunions.

A snow train is being considered, and if enough enthusiasm is found among local Dartmouth winter sport enthusiasts, the proper arrangements will be made.
