1903

Leigh W. Kimball, once band leader and "Kimmie" to us all, writes interestingly of his professional duties at Rutgers and brings out the fact that the probable closer relations with Spanish America have doubled the enrollment in Spanish classes this year. As a result after a lapse of nine years he is again teaching the language. Changes have also taken place in the family life. In a letter of a few years ago Kimmie told of building a house large enough for the family. In the meanwhile here is what seems to have happened: Mary, the oldest daughter, has made it possible for Kimmie to join the Grandfather's Club, and has moved from under the parental roof. Hilda is now engaged in social service work in Pittsburg, Roland is with the Nash (Truck) Man'f'g. Cos., and Irma is married and lives just across the line in Pennsylvania. Kimmie it's time to get out the old clarinet and run over a few lullabies for the youngsters.

The 5-class dinner on the 15 th of March was a standout among Dartmouth Alumni events. To Bob Harding '05 our hearty congratulations, for Bob was the Cordell Hull of the cabinet.

Mr. and Mrs. Harold D. Comstock announce the marriage of their daughter, Dorothy, to Mr. Alex John Zoranovich on Thursday, March 25, at Ethete, Wyoming. The happy couple are to reside in Oakland, Calif.

Rev. Charles Tabor Hall, for 27 years rector of St. John's Episcopal church in Arlington, Mass. has tendered his resignation to take effect after Easter and will accept a call to Amesbury. Ordained to priesthood in 1907, Vicar of St. Andrew's in Framingham, rector of St. Stephen's Church in Fall River, and, as above stated, rector of St. John's for 27 years, during which time he successfully undertook the financing and building of a beautiful new edifice, the rector has a record of which he may well be proud. On Oct. 12th last, Winifred, his wife died. She had ably shared the burdens of a large parish.

Letters from many who were keenly disappointed in not being able to attend the aforementioned dinner have been received. Scudder of Durham, N. H., Stevens of Concord, N. H., Davis of Middlebury, Vt. were forcibly prevented by physicians. Whether these are cases for F.8.1, or not will be decided soon. We certainly would have liked to have seen them and next year we shall hope for their presence.

The '03 delegation consisted of Chubby Edwards, Ned Kenerson, Orvil Smith, Pip Howard, Harry Watson, Nat Batchelder, Prex Whelden, Phil Brown, Charlie Luce, Artie Bolster, A. K. Smith, Dick Brown and Ned Burbeck. If that list doesn't put you in a state of nostalgia, think of the '01, '02, '04, and '05 men who were present.

Secretary, 198 Humphrey St., Marblehead, Mass.
