In Recognition

To THE EDITOR: As a non-graduate contributor to the Alumni Fund via the Class of 1924, I was both interested and pleased to see the editorial, "Non-Graduate Loyalty" in the October issue of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE.

I have no idea, really, whether I speak only for myself or for the many others that may read it, feel as I do, but not get around to writing.

Quite obviously, those o£ us who contribute do it because we feel like it, and therefore don't warrant any special consideration. I, at least, feel that the proper recognition was made when the notation "n.g." after the class numeral was dropped from the stencil for the alumni mailing list! That always struck me as a very thoughtful gesture, and I think it is all the recognition that is necessary.

For a Better Dartmouth

To THE EDITOR: This is to express my appreciation of the article in re me, in the current number of your magazine. What strikes me most forcibly is that a man of peace should be given so much space at this time of war!

With the receipt of each issue I feel that I would have been a better Dartmouth man if your magazine had been going in its present form and spirit fifty years ago. I have grouched a lot over "the post-graduate cost of education" until you have put over to me the idea that I am still a member of a doing institution, which is doing worth-while things, which merit positive support;, which makes a whale of a difference. More power to you!

Distinctive Class

To THE EDITOR: Something should be done about Cory Ford's class of 19—. It seems to me that Brother Strong must have been reached or all those bums could never have got in at one time. Why the vice record of 19— is worse than that of my class, and I don't like to lose a championship of any kind. Boston
