1922*
A recent letter from Cliff Watson confirms the announcement in a past issue, of his move to Charlotte, N. C., as manager of southern sales for the Emmons Loom Harness Co. Cliff's letter mentioned that Marilyn 15, Joan 13, Mrs. Cliff and himself have found a home at 235 Fenton Place. Good luck in your new position.
Coward-McCann, Inc., New York publishers, have announced the appointment of our own Cecil Goldbeck as editor. Congratulations!
Red Hall, famed legal light of Rochester, N. H., announces that his law firm has been enlarged—to wit: Cooper, Hall and Grimes.
Ed Ford has recently moved from Chicago to 4 High Street, Avon, N. Y. The meager information reaching us indicates Ed to be a salesman but I cannot pass on further information unless Ed himself will be good enough to drop me a line with further details. How about it?
Recently word has reached us that Bill Angell has been elected Vice President of the Vermont State Medical Society. Congratulations!
At long last comes word of Bernard Steel, via a lengthy clipping from the Berkeley (Calif.) Gazette of January 4th, this year. The Steels are living at 965 Indian Rock Avenue, in Berkeley, with daughters Beatrice 18, and Helen 14. The Steels have lived in France for 19 years and for several years he was a publisher in Paris operating under the firm name of DeNoel and Steel, turning out novels, anthologies and books on psychology. Later he sold his interest and moved to Nice, dividing his time between a 600 acre farm and the radio business. Their home was particularly interesting inasmuch as it was more than 500 years old, being part of a Cistercian Monastery. In June of last year, when Paris fell, the Steels gathered up such personal effects as they could pack in their car and reached Bordeaux the day it was being bombed. Finally they crossed into Spain and sailed for the U. S. aboard the Manhattan. Bernie is taking agricultural courses at the University in Berkeley and becoming acclimated again, along with his family, to the U. S. A. The Class wishes the Steel family all prosperity and success.
A letter full of interests about other Twoters has recently come from Dick Litchfield. He was instrumental in promoting some enthusiasm for a class get-together and on the night of the recent Harvard-Dartmouth basketball game, the Bill Gallaghers, Bill Bullens, Carter Hoyts, Haskell Cohns and the Dick Litchfields were on hand to follow the team. I think Dick deserves a medal for promoting this get-together and your Secretary would like to have reports of other similar gatherings in Boston and elsewhere. All a group gathering, either stag or mixed, needs is a spark plug—so go to it. Dick also reports that he and Mary and Betty Ann, 9, have gone to Hanover several times in recent months. Dick's business is booming, one of his show pieces being the giant rubberized canvas lake for the annual Sportsmens' Show in Boston.
The intinerary of a recent business trip took me through Springfield where I had the great pleasure of having luncheon at the University Club with Herm Carlyle, ace hardware merchant, Harvey Moses, bank executive, and Bob Baldwin, top flight insurance man. Other Twoters that were contacted were unable to join us, much to our regret.
This luncheon, or something, must have been too much for your Secretary because the next day, on arrival in Boston, the Flu bug floored him for four days but the time spent as an invalid was brightened considerably through visits from Haskell Cohn, Carter Hoyt, and Carroll Dwight and a long 'phone conversation with Len Morrissey.
Reports have recently reached us that Max Budnitz is now head man of Robert Automotive Supplies in Springfield, Mass., having purchased control recently.
The Eastern Amateur Ski Ass'n,—Chairman Bob Booth—supervised a ski school for amateur ski teachers under the auspices of the D.O.C. in Hanover.
Hallam (Hal) J. Clark is connected with Harvey Whipple Co., oil burners, 55 Sacred Street, Springfield, Mass.
Recently arrived on your Secretary's desk is word to the effect that Win Ranney has published a booklet on the subject of Gladiolus.
Returning from Boston a short time ago, I had the great pleasure of meeting Blaylock (Blay) Atherton and wife, Kay. They were on the . train to Washington for the Inauguration and Blay was resplendent in his new Major's uniform. He was recently appointed to the staff of Governor Blood (The Governor Blood '11, of New Hampshire) and was looking forward with anticipation to the gala event ahead. Blay is an agent for the New England Mutual Life Insurance Co., resident in Nashua, N. H. He and attractive Kay have three girls, the oldest of whom is in high school.
One of the most interesting parts of your Secretary's job is, in his roamings around the country, to contact other Twoters or to run into them unexpectedly.
I had great hopes, until the flu bug knocked me down, of visiting with Twoters in Buffalo, Providence and Portland, Me. Don't give up hope boys—or run for cover, according to your inclination.
Did you know that Phil Bingham is an assistant professor at the University of New Hampshire—that Dave Caldwell's new address is 1 Wyman Court, Winchester, Mass., and that the Grant Store in Erie, Pa., is managed by Ralph Brucker.
Evidently, Albert (Al) Acker has changed both address and occupation. The only report available is that he can be reached through General Delivery at Atlanta, Ga. Al, speak up please and let me know where you are.
See you next month! O. K. Herb West—Take it away!
Do You REMEMBER WHEN?
It was our freshman year when the well known Gene Markey '18, and Werner Janssen '21 wrote the Prom Show Oh! Doctor. A swell show, wasn't it?
T. A. Lend, now general manager of the Eagle Printing Ink Co., W. L. Caldwell, R. P. Hallett, now a physician in Gloucester, Massachusetts, and E. E. Petot, now a district manager for Hormel & Co., packers, on April 12, 1919, running in the Interclass relay, came in third?
It was during the same Spring that Professor Frank H. Dixon, who had been twenty one years at Dartmouth in the Department of Economics, resigned to go to Princeton where he has remained ever since.
J. H. A. Zuckerman and G. L. Clewell made their dramatic reputations, according to the Dartmouth critic who was, I believe, Kenneth A. Robinson, in CheatingCheaters. Herluf V. Olsen, now Dean of Tuck School, played the part of a detective. Do you remember, Herluf?
On the 19th of April the Phi Delta Theta house was damaged by fire?
The late W. R. Gray, this same spring, was made Dean of Tuck School, and later a trustee?
J. P. Carleton made the tennis team, number four, and in his first match against Williams won handily against R. Harden? BEVO, the "all-year-round soft drink" was popular with the Class of 1922. Do you remember this awful beverage?
Secretary, 736 Delaware Ave., Bethlehem, Penna. GREETINGS TWOTERS!
