'18ers in France
HORT KENNEDY is Treas. of new Am. Ambulance service—JACK HURLBUT on Board of Governors of Anglo-Am. Ambulance Corps of Cannes. Says GEORGE HULL in Paris- "After 18 years in this blessed country where the people are very regular and life very sweet, I find myself temporarily up a tree. You see my business is mainly with children for special milk and the children have all been evacuated from Paris in case friend Adolph wants to be nasty and drop eggs on us. Naturally things are not brilliant for me and I am sitting here twiddling my thumbs and wondering what to do next. The genial frog seems awfully careless but one thing he understands very well how to do is to make War and this time both the French and the English have a bellyfull of Hitler and are going right out to clean up. I shall stick around Paris throughout the War and in case any of our friends want me to try and peddle their plunder over here, I'll see what I can do.". .. .Thanks to GEORGE M.DAVIS and ever faithful AL GOTTSCH, we find a story in a recent issue of Sat. Even. Post—"The Permanent A.E.F." Excerpts "George R. Hull, formerly of Hanover, N. H. is the American Milk Man' in Paris. The Necessary Luxuries Cos. distributes certified milk and cream not only to American customers but also to French, who have gained a new conception of what rich milk and cream can be. A Franco-American daughter is Hull's favorite client.". .. .
FAMILIES OF DEPARTED 'IBERS APPRECIATIVE. You will recall your class recently sent to families of '18ers who have left us, but not forgotten, copies of a memorial AL. MAG. Appreciative replies came from Mrs. Charlie Echterbecker, Lynn Seiler's father, Hal Eadie's brother, Monk Drabble's mother, Paul Hawley's family, George Kane's mother, and Ralph Barrett's mother, from whose letter I quote "Yourletter in regard to the 1918 class of Dartmouth touched my heart very deeply.Words are inadequate to express my appreciation to your class for their thoughtful kindness I sincerely wish the bestin life for each one of the 1918 class and Ithank you with all my heart for the beautiful spirit remaining in your memories forthe departed comrades, and for your kindness to me "
HELPING THE FINNS WITH HOOVER—Mary Stoddard engineered a benefit concert, lined up all the talent herself, got Herbert Hoover on the program and netted an alltime high for one performance of $3000. Now, says George, maybe Mary can find time to sew buttons on my B.V.D's
TWO CHRISTY SHOWS—Mr. and Mrs. FRANCIS T. occupied Box 66 at the annual Horse Show—Chris (V.P.—Rockefeller Center) continues to act as Counsel but has opened his own office for the general practice of law at 30 Rockefeller Plaza. . .. .T. REED MONTGOMERY (Monty to us) the cross-country runner of yore—Boston English High, Wildcat Division A.E.F., now Vice President of Boston Brewing Co.—America's oldest (an ideal man for every reuning committee) TOM P.CAMPBELL, the Denverite who promises to be back east next June for Dick's graduation, touched a new high in '39 with his silver output from the Creede Mill of which he is head JAY LE FEVRE LASSOSGUNMEN—no squeal from Director Jaysus when gunmen looted the New Paltz Savings Bank of $18,300 cash plus $54,000 in securities in January 1935—said Jay "those things are normal in a quiet town like ours—and put us on the map" Now—after a brief 3 yrs.—they have the "stick up" boys in the hoosegow waiting for the next unruly citizen to cut up a bit NIPPER KNAPP in politics or what? Rumor seeps in to watch him. Night clubbing around Broadway in Jan. we learned that Nipper is very active in American Legion affairs (Vt.) from JOHNNIE THAYER in Centerville, Md. "am now Editor of Queen-Anne's Record Observer— a county newspaper—married again recently—very busy—very happy—very poor.". .. .BUDFROST is putting on tons of health at Hanover and his son will be due at Dartmouth next fall JIM T. DUFFY JR., President Read Machinery Co., York, Pa pushed '39 sales over a million or 4 times greater than '35 when the company was reorg. under present mgm.,— (an all-time record anywhere, Jim) JAKE BINGHAM reports running into WOODIE HULBERT teaching Somerville youth skiing (wife, Clifford, sings solos in Medford, (Mass.) church. Now isn't this column worth $3.50 of yours to Stumpie? If you're shy on cash, we'll pay your $3.50 class dues if you'll write the news for the next issue—any takers?
APOLOGIES TO THE CLASS—'IBs limit is 3 columns in this MAGAZINE they've given us more—so back comes bouncing "overage"—so please excuse delay in some news items.
JONES HANDS IT TO FISH—a note from Stan to Bob a few months back "I cannot resist adding one more jewel to your already blinding diadem! To state that I am proud of you is a master piece of selfabnegation. And I am sure that every other son of a b— in the class of 1918 is feeling just a little bit better about himself—and the world in general—as a result of your untiring, unselfish efforts in behalf of the catafalque of his youth—and pushing 1918 to the top of the heap in the Alumni Fund campaign."... .Also from RAY HURLEY, (Steam Saver Corp.) "Delighted to learn of 'lßs success in Al. Fund—sure success was due to tilling the soil so thoroughly here in Chicago—and from CORT HORR (Pres. Dart. Club, Central N. Y.). "Certainly you are entitled to the everlasting thanks of 'ißers for pushing our class into the rarified stratosphere of the 3rd place out of some 60 classes." ON YOUR MARK; GET SET—for fixing a spot in your budget right soon now for Bob Fish's Al. Fund campaign.
