1938*
It's with considerable regret that we report that Bud Walls was involved in an automobile accident on icy pavement, and at this writing is still laid up in the hospital at Highland Park, Illinois. Late in February a hemorrhage developed and it was necessary to remove an eye. While his condition is reported as improved there is still much to be hoped for in his recovery. Bud's done such a swell job on the Alumni Fund as Class Agent that we hope everyone will pull with him in relieving him of many of the tedious details of this year's work. I hesitate to say any more about it for fear of over-sentimentalizing, and we can't help but feel that with his fine spirit he will come through, and we realize again how fortunate we are in having him as one of us.
It's too early to report on the '38 Night dinners and we'll have that in our next. The same goes for the Glee Club Concert in New York. I was in New York for just about time enough to change my shirt and to have lunch with Mattimore and Mays, who are enthused about the prospects of a snappy year for '3B activities in New York. So far we've upset all records for attendance at get-togethers, dinners, dances and other activities at the Dartmouth Club. Whitey is going great guns with W. S. Mays & Co., gradually taking over the management of the general insurance department. Matty's now writing a column of his own for Conde Nast, in addition to selling advertising space. Look for him in the April 1 issue of Vogue having his Ascot tied in preparation for a wedding. Matty says he was plied with scotch to get him in the proper mood. Whitey's further set to take the marriage vows with Tommy Millett late in June. Speaking of magazines, did you all see the shot of Walls in the Feb. 12 issue of Life at a roller skating party?
Jack Hull was best man at Win Mayo's wedding February 24 to Ruth Du Mond of Yonkers. Ruth is president of the Junior Assembly of Yonkers, and Win is now manager of the Wilder Mfg. Co. in Leominster. As for Johnny Johnson's activities in Africa, he's now moved from Accra to Lagos, on the Gulf of Guinea. Ray Berquist's engagement to Jean Kimball of West Medford is real, and Ray is now Safety Director and Ass't to Industrial Relations Manager at the Eagle Pencil Co. in N. Y. That's the neatest title of the month. Did you hear Bill McMurtrie on the air for the Columbia Workshop, March 7th? He was the clown named Buster Johnson who pulled the lines of "Hey, wait a minute, etc." The same stuff he pulled in college. He's done a few sales promotion surveys, notably Marvels Cigarettes and Dole Pineapple. Last heard of he was following a horse named "Foxster" through Mexico. Joe Fogarty's still pounding for the Bar at Columbia. Keresey's still there too, though you'd never know it. Latest news I've had of him he'd announced his engagement to some girl. Paul Ossen's a little better correspondencewise. Here are parts of his letter. "Spent last summer doing research work in the Jackson Memorial Cancer Laboratory in Bar Harbor. All set for B. U. Medical School this fall. And another thing, since you always have some passing remarks about us bald headed guys, I would like to announce that we are starting a club called "The Brotherhood of those Denied by Nature the Blessings of Hair—or as it is known in Spain, 'The Committee for the Protection of the Hairless Ones.' All those interested in joining the club, and all those who think they might be bald in seventeen years, write, but please enclose a check. Personally, I think it is so swell an idea that I've already made myself president and TREASURER of the organization." Last seen Reno and Soule were at the Williams Carnival. Jim McKeon is still with the local daily in Ansonia, Conn., working on national advertising and promotion. Reports spending an evening at the Taft with Slattery and Mook, Slattery still operating out of Bronxville.
Here's more congratulations, though we saw it coming. The engagement of Sox Calder and Becky Holmes, Fairlawn, Ohio and Wells. It's, my girl too. Paul Halstead married Marion Loizeaux (New York City and Darien) on Feb. 3. Paul's an instructor of aeronautical sciences at the Roosevelt Station School, Mineola, L. I. This is what I call cooperation, though. Bill Blees is playing one of the leading roles in one of the best musicals to hit New York, and I don't know anything about it until he pops out on the stage in front of my eyes. He's playing the role of Jojo Jordan, the Harvard All-American, in Too Many Girls, and he does a swell job. He made his Broadway debut in What a Life. Then in Ring Two, and was assistant stage manager in the same,—and now.
And here it is. Lew Moorman is marrying Betty Slick in Oklahoma City, the 19th of March. Boy, how I'd like to be there. Ben Walkley is playing squash for the Montclair A. C. We're certainly hitting the social columns these days. Engagement of Joe Schaeffer and Emma Langer, Smith '4O. She's the daughter of the former Governor of North Dakota. Joe's handling railroad and airline advertising for the Herald Tribune. Nobody's lost their youth yet. Dick Holt says when he hit the Vassar Junior Prom he thought he was back in the Wigwam. Bob Carroll, Johnny Merrill, Kingsbury, and Pete Barnet were there in all their glory. As for Carnival, it looks as if Holtz and I were the only ones to miss it. Spent February in Miami and could have sworn I saw Russ Spang there. At any rate I saw a million women, and they all knew Mallory. Bruce Tompkins is an advertising copywriter for W. W. Garrison & Co., Chicago. Ev Wikoff is reservations agent for American Airlines in Cincinnati, Bob Coffin is operating his father's farm in Newport, Vt., breeding livestock. Sawyer Rank is proprietor of Linwood Stamps, St. Paul—a foreign postage stamp dealer. John Sinclair is a special representative of Sinclair Refining, Chuck Wyckoff is at M. I. T., Bob Chickering is at Indiana University in the Institute of Politics, and Dune Buttrick is with Lee Rubber and Tire Co., in Boston. Roge Warfield is with the Fuller Brush Co., in Cambridge. Bill Olmstead's still doing fire protection engineering for Atlantic Mutual. Wendell Lake says he's been going out occasionally with Helene and Chris. Who is this guy Chris, and who's Helene a friend of? Jim Chandler and Don Badger are working for Gulf now, Johnny Meachem is selling wholesale Coal for C. L. Amos Coal Co., and Frank Brett's doing a good job with life insurance and the Connecticut Life. What's this about Osterhout getting married? This last from Johnny Jameson who's now living in Alexandria, La., buying and selling oil and gas leases and royalties—says he can spend your money as fast as you can. Yours truly is in North Carolina at this point, thinking of Hanover, and expecting to be back in Houston soon. Fran Worcester is a statistician for Northwest Paper Co., in Cloquet, Minn. This is how he reports Borneman at work. "I found Borneman behind the shirt counter in MarshallField's giving the works to a little blueeyed thing. He was leaning over the counter and a stack of shirts getting very confidential with her, patting her on the shoulder and smiling his most beautiful smile. I waited a half hour while he poured it on hot and heavy—incidentally, he sold her half the store." Says Terry Hollerin is selling flour in Duluth. Phil Harty's wedding, and also that of Anne Piper is set for May 18th. Cravens says, "What a blast." Also reported is John Hirst's wedding. No details.
What do you think of the baby's picture? I want you guys to be proud of him. See you soon.
