1933*

Ordinarily at this time we should be readying a blast about the "Terrible Tenth." As a matter of fact, your representative has been quietly trying to round up an organization to prepare whatever can be prepared for those of us who will be able to get back to Hanover in June. It is the consensus of those to whom we have talked that the Reunion idea should not be given up completely, but that plans should be as fluid as possible; that activities should not be scheduled in advance, but that they should be adapted to the group which actually appears. It is quite possible that no more than twenty-five men will appear. Nevertheless, it has seemed preferable to have a get-together for that group than to cancel the affair completely.

Organization has not been easy. You run into things like this:

This is to acknowledge your letter and to tell you that Mr. Sayre is in the Officers' Training School for the Army Air Corps in Miami. I do not know that he has made any plans for reunion, but I will forward your letter to him at the Embassy Hotel.

We had written to Mr. Sayre at the Hanover Inn, feeling that,-with his increasing tribe, he was one of the bulwarks of the Class.

The result is that our committee is still tentative. We hope that it will be completed by the next issue of the MAGAZINE and that it can immediately begin to lay whatever plans it considers feasible.

Charles William Tozier has moved from Worcester Academy where he was head of the history department for six years to Bates College where he will teach economics and government Dr. Ralph Alexander who is roentgenologist in charge of X-ray and physiotherapy at the U.

The aforesaid Theriault also writes that he is now enjoying a sabbatical in Cambridge, Mass., where he was living at 19 Chauncey Street last July. He saw BobMitchell in the Yard recently. Bob is teaching social sciences in a high school in Connecticut and has taken some graduate work at Harvard. He has also seen Dave Hatch who is teaching at Connecticut College for Women. He had been getting in some graduate work at Harvard prior to assuming his new duties.

We print belatedly a despatch sent us by H. C. Coulson to the effect that the Lake County Bar Association had presented a Sam Browne belt to Lieut. Robert E. Coulson, former assistant State's attorney. At that writing, Bob was at Camp Grant, Rockford, Ill.

Jim Woods received the following from Miss Edith Peterson of Maiden in the course of the Alumni Fund:

"Early in 1937 Kenneth left with the Lincoln Battalion for Spain. Our last known communication is dated early in 1938. We were reluctant to accept any account of rumor and the only information available is 'Reported missing in action, Madrid, Spain.'"

Hal Smith has left his cushy post at the local Federal Savings and Loan Associa- tion for a job as Lieut, (j.g.) with the Navy Supply Corps at Norfolk, Va. A small group of his friends who were desolate at his departure presented him with a supply of Mother Sill's well known guaranty against sea sickness at a fitting ceremony.
