1904
The general tendency of the age has provoked an upheaval in the Waterville Valley, dislodging the Austin family, after a twenty-five year residence in this primitive New Hampshire beauty spot. One of our pleasant associations has been the visit of a class group during our twentieth, twentyfifth, thirtieth and thirty-fifth reunion periods. Consideration of several possibilities in the recreational hotel field during the winter months, find us taking possession, on May first, of Canaan Street Lodge on Canaan Street, eighteen miles south of Hanover, with 600 feet of lake frontage, just across Canaan Street Lake from the Haffenrefeer property recently given to Dartmouth. There is a reservation already made for the reuning class of 1904 in June, 1944-
Our Annual Reunion—will occur as usual during Commencement next month, more definite information and a list of the returning group will appear in Ralph's bulletin and the June MAGAZINE.
March 25th, Rev. Dr. John H. Nolan was one of the recipients of the order of William Pynchon on the occasion of the 26th annual presentation of this order at the William Pynchon dinner in Springfield. The award honors Springfield citizens who have, through labor and inspiration contributed to the well being of Springfield since it was founded more than 300 years ago by the Colonist William Pynchon. The Springfield Union and Republican said of Jack: "Dr. Nolan, Rector of St. Peter's Episcopal Church for 14 years, Chaplain of the 104 th Infantry, School Committeeman, Kiwanis Club President, and director or member of social agencies and committees innumerable, is reputed to have more friends and acquaintances in walks of life among all races and creeds than any other member of the community. "Father John" as he is known to soldier and police officer, educator and business man, has been supremely endowed with the gift of making friends and his good works among those in distress far beyond the confines of his parish have touched uncounted families in his 36 years of service in the city." Congratulations Jack, from all the Class for this deserved public recognition of your successful life work in Springfield.
At the March 15th one-two-three-fourfive reunion in Boston were, Bolster, Uniac, Moseley, Maguire, Lampee, Bullock, Sexton, Parker, Robinson, Charron, Davis and Austin. Squid thought the band ought to be there somewhere, and Tom Uniac and Sid '26 Hayward discussed dogs and wild life or rather the taking of it by rod and gun, while the rest of us enjoyed the rare privilege of an informal evening with friends in other classes. It was a worth while experiment and our number will be double next year.
