Since it is a tradition of the N. W. Association to hold it's annual meeting in March, Dartmouth Night has not been observed here in past years. A last minute decision to observe this tradition, starting this year, brought out some twenty loyal Alumni for dinner, and everything, at the famous Covered Wagon of Minneapolis.
