Here are the dates to paste in your hat for this fall:

Streamlined announcements follow. Ike Chester will start pouring at 6:30, dinner to follow, in Apt. 425-B The Westchester, 4000 Cathedral Ave. (near intersection Mass. & Wise. Aves.) Washington. Out-of towners should invest five cents to call Ike, at WOodley 6143, so you will have a place set. This brilliant affair is being sponsored jointly by Chester-Hicks-Hubbell. .. .Tom Cleveland says the Harvard Game dinner will be, as usual, at the Univ. Club, Boston, with festivities starting at 6:00, preceded by a semi-annual session of the Class Exec. Committee in a private room. Tom continues: "As an innovation this year, 1921 will have a buffet luncheon starting at 12:00 before the game. Bill Perry is in charge of arrangements and has selected a swell spot just out of Harvard Sq., an easy place to find and a short walk to the Stadium. The place, The Oxford Grille, 36 Church St., which runs out of the Square just beyond the Univ. Theatre. The party will be held in the Hunt Room—a buffet luncheon for $1. We are hoping that all '21ers and their friends coming to the game will take this in. A chance for not only the fellows but the wives to meet together in an informal way, and we plan to make it an annual event." .... The Manhattan affair, November 6, if half as successful as last year's shindig on the eve of the Princeton game, will be a sell-out. The dinner will be in a private room at the Dartmouth Club and timed to dovetail with the P. Game Smoker put on annually by the club for both New Yorkers and visiting firemen. Doug Storer plans a special entertainment feature; if possible 'phone him during office hours that Friday at Circle 7-1150 and say you're coming.

Each chairman will select the committee members to function with him First signs of life by these committee tycoons will be apparent within the month, when Dutch Bausher throws out the opening ball for the committee on our Silver Anniversary Gift. This clarion call will issue from the vicinity of Reading, Pa., and will be one which no loyal '21er can fail to heed. It is traditional for the Dartmouth Class 25 years out of college to present a fund to Prexy on the occasion of that anniversary. And Dutch has evolved a striking plan by which we can demonstrate our loyalty both to our Country and to our College simultaneously by giving U. S. War Savings Bonds to the Class Gift Fund. Stand by for further details.
