1909*

"Art" Sporborg made the front page of the Boston papers by leasing an ocean front estate at Miami Beach to Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt. "Art" has been in the real estate business for many years at 1620 Lenox Avenue, Miami Beach.

"Bob" Stone recently lost his father, Edward H. Stone. Mr. Stone was in his 89th year and was the co-founder and chairman of the board of directors of Stone & Forsyth Company, paper manufacturers, of which company Bob is vice president.

"Reggie" Colley (Dr. Colley to nonclassmates) has recently had his responsibilities in the Bell Telephone Laboratories enlarged. He is now head of the Timber Products Division and as such is responsible for studying the types of timber products used by the Bell System and methods for the preservation of such materials. As "Reggie" expressed it, This is an illustration of how far a pure botanist can getfrom his profession. "Reggie's" new address is 463 West Street, New York City.

I recently put "Dick" Lord on the job of digging up some information on one or two of our classmates. As a result, I secured the following story of "Phil" Chase's activities. "You ask me what I am doing and the report is that after a quarter of a century in the travel business advising those who wished to take a trip how best to do it, I found it expedient to sell out when Hitler went into Austria. If I hadn't done so then, you can see that by now I wouldn't have been able to raffle off the business at a dime a ticket. The past year I have been busy on liie assumption that a great many people have clever ideas which they do not know how to make effective. Ideas about gadgets that might save time or labor, and incidentally be remunerative if on the market: my contribution being Ways and means for bringing worthwhile ideas to the attention of those who would benefit from them. Among them is a trick cigarette case that holds a full pack and also keeps matches at hand. Also a slipper for a penny a pair that prevents contact of the feet with the dirty slabs of a public shower, thus preventing spread of foot troubles. And now a new process of reproducing bronze and other metallic finish effects in high, three dimensional relief which has many useful ramifications in the arts and business displays made of pulp." "Phil" is located at 36 Pleasant Street, Watertown, Mass.

Karl Hammond is now selling high class printing for the Pond-Ekberg Company, State and Andrew Streets, Springfield, Mass. He has recently gone with this concern and reports that he is meeting with a fair amount of success and is happy in his work. If any of our classmates know of high class printing to be done from a leaflet to a beautiful treatise on Decorative art in color, Karl has something worthwhile to sell and knows the subject well. Karl was recently in Hanover to see his boy who is attending Dartmouth and is just recovering from bronchial pneumonia. The boy was a member of the Dartmouth Skating Team this year and true to the old spirit went out of a sick bed to enter the events at the winter carnival. He did his stuff and then went out like a "light" at the end of the race with a temperature of 104—and back to Mary Hitchcock where he had been previously confined. Just another chip off the old block, that good Dartmouth timber that takes root in the north country we know so well.

"Chet" Brett and Martha are comfortably situated at 138 Marlboro Street, Boston, having recently moved from Brookline. Martha says that "Chet" is getting athletic and tries to walk to town to keep in shape. Those of you who met "Chet's" son at the reunion this year will recall that he was going to Australia to begin to learn the wool business. Because of the war, however, this scheme was given up and he has gone back to Dartmouth for another year.

I ran into "Art" Shoppelry for the first time in a good many years. He is now sales manager of Thorp & Martin Co., 66 Franklin Street. He was, if you remember, connected with Remington Rand, Inc. for almost 2i years and has been with this new connection for about 2 years.

"Freddie" Carroll has been very active of late heading up the drive for Finnish Relief in Boston. He seems to have succeeded in raising a considerable sum of money. You will also be interested in the following write-up which I received from "Doc" Foster of the class of 1910 regarding a recent speech which Freddie gave in Portland, Maine. "In December Freddie Carroll, '09, an old roommate of the Tri Kap House days, made the principal address at a testimonial dinner for Mr. Roland Clarke, a local banker, who has been elected president of the First Division of the National Bankers' Association. Freddie looked handsome and poured out one of the most amusing, most appropriate after dinner speeches that we have had in Portland since our beloved Tom Reed finished his career. Fred quoted Latin and without a tremor made his own free translations right in the lap of President Sills of Bowdoin who sat next to him. He recited several verses of poetry and told dialect stories pertinent to the situation. In fact, the Cream of The Muscovite Team never spell-bound his cohorts more effectively. It was a rare treat to see and hear again the popular star of the Dartmouth Dramatic Club of 1908-1909. Every member of that star-studded organization would have been proud of the old trouper that night."
