News that should appeal. At our headquarters, So. Massachusetts, Mrs. (Ma) Smalley will again cater for our get-together on June 13th.
Mrs. Little in sending in regarding Squash tells she has been in the hospital but is now back in Moore's Corner with her mother who also has been very ill but is now some better.
From Mrs. Watson came the following about her grandchildren. "Jimmy broke his leg, then came down with chicken pox, is still in bed and the cast will be on for several more weeks. Now little Peter is ill with the chicken pox."
From a classmate dear to all who know him intimately but who wishes to remain anonymous comes the following sonnet!
An Old-Timer's Tribute
The college opens gates to world's best
thought, To science, art and wisdom of all time, To dreams and visions for which man has
fought, To laws and acts that aid our racial climb. Ripe scholars give rich color to the quest For knowledge, inspiration and true zeal. They spur our youth to face the hardest test-
In turn to place more pilots at the wheel. The search for men well qualified to
guide— The constant clamor for a better world-Cannot be met by dull, scholastic pride, Which fails to see the human scroll
unfurled. In training minds that may be called to lead
Old Dartmouth aims to meet this vital need.
