Westchester

FLASH! The Westchester Dinner scheduled for February 29th has been postponed to Thursday, April 4th, due to the fact that the Dartmouth Alumni Association of New York, fitting its date to coincide with a speaking tour of President Hopkins, found it necessary to elect February 15th as the date for its Dinner at the Hotel Commodore.

Prexy Sid Flanigan phoned Dean Neidlinger and explained the situation. Pudge was grand about postponing his engagement with us, and agreed to April 4th as an alternate date. Many thanks, Dean!

Announcements will be mailed. If you don't get one, give us the works—also your Westchester address—at the Dinner (not by mail).

Incidentally, this date falls during the Spring recess, and Westchester undergraduates will be royally welcomed. We'd like a good turn-out of Dartmouth Fathers, too, even though their loyalties may be previously pledged to the Universities of Chicago, Hard-Knocks, or what have you. So if you know any, bring them along.

Our Westchester organization is entitled by statute, and by virtue of the fact that we are an up and coming factor in the movement to beat Cornell, to nominate a candidate for a vacancy soon to occur on the Alumni Council. Well, due deliberation decided us on Walter Beach Humphrey '14. Walter has for years been known and admired as an artist whose work has graced the pages and covers of the best in American publications. Recently he has come even more prominently to the attention of Dartmouth men by reason of the well-deserved commission he received to do the murals in Thayer Hall. That he did a magnificent job is the verdict of all who have seen them.

But above and beyond that, and of more vital interest to us, Walter is a staunch and devoted son of Dartmouth. We could find no better candidate. So, man and boy, let's get behind Walter Beach Humphrey; let's (to coin a phrase) "put our shoulders to the wheel."

Our Editor-in-Chief, Sid Hayward, hasn't yet told us that he is getting fed up on advertising the Hotel Roger Smith in White Plains without getting paid for it, so we're going to say once more—that is where we hold our monthly Monday meetr ing—first Monday, at 7:00 p.m. So, boys, "Come Out, Come Out, Wherever You Live." Especially them there Hudson River lads.
