Jack Childs died very suddenly at his home in Goffstown, New Hampshire, September 23. Jack had been in good health up to the time of his death. The obituary notes in the MAGAZINE will give a picture of the type of work which he had been do- ing. Also, since the obituary notice was sent in, I have found that he recently success- fully worked out various substitutes for materials which are scarce because of the War. His loss to the State of New Hamp- shire was evidenced by the presence at the funeral of the Governor and all the chief heads of the State departments. The serv- ices were held at the North Congregational Church and the floral pillow from the Class of 'O9 was listed in the newspaper as among the many tributes received.
Jack was one of the members of the Class who always made friends and his loss will be deeply felt by all.
Frederick P. Morawski, the son of Fred- die, was listed in the Boston papers as hav- ing flown 6000 miles from Buenos Aires, Argentina to enlist in the Marine Corps in Boston. He has a brother, Corporal John Morawski, already in the Marines. Mrs. Morawski is still living in Buenos Aires where Freddie died in 1925.
Ingie Fearing and Dutch West have just been on their regular fishing trip along the Miramichi River, New Brunswick. We have heard nothing, however, about the results so that perhaps they did not come across with an 18-pound salmon this time.
Frank O'Brien had his picture on the financial page of most of the New York papers with a write-up telling of his elec- tion as Executive Vice President of the Continental Can Company. Frank has been a director since 1938 and in charge of manufacturing for six years. Good work, Frank. Keep it up!
Our treasurer, Chappelear, is having trouble getting money enough to pay the subscriptions for the ALUMNI MAGAZINE inasmuch as he has found it impossible to collect class dues or even MAGAZINE sub- scriptions from a substantial number of the members of the class. It looks as though it might be necessary to call on a selected group to underwrite the deficit. Can't some of you who have not paid anything dig down and send in at least a year's dues of $3.00? You will recall that $15.00 is what was asked for the five-year period but "Chap" will be glad to take anything. His address is Edgar S. Chappelear, 16 Wall Street, New York City.
The Class of 'O9 is well represented on this year's football team, so keep an eye on Johnnie Burroughs who is Harry's son, and Steve Holmes who is Bob's son.
Walter Brown, who has been with the United Fruit Company since graduation, has recently had charge of distributing the few bananas coming into this country to the children who have been afflicted with the disease-with-the-difficult-name who can only be benefited by bananas. His experi- ences have been most interesting but space would not permit going into all the details. He has now gone into war work and is con- nected with the Bureau of Coordination of Ships, 44 Wall Street.
Tom Fardy has been in the hospital for the past seven weeks with an operation but from last reports is doing well.
