This Month

THE DISTINGUISHED HISTORIAN OF THE COLlege, and able secretary of the class of 1900, Leon Burr Richardson (also Professor of Chemistry and Doctor of Letters) contributes this month a fine collection of information, whimsy, and historical intelligence that we are delighted to publish. It is a quiz, beginning page 9, and the lower your score the better off you are, in the author's opinion.

Dartmouth Keeps 'Em Flying, page 13, by Major Willis S. Fitch '17, describes some of the moves taken to increase the enrollment in the Army Air Corps' vast recruiting program. Although the work directed by Mr. Fitch covers New England, support on the widest possible basis is requested by the author.

The success of Hanover Holiday in the past two or three years has encouraged the committee in charge to plan a week of talks and recreation of vacation in Hanover for May 11-15, in spite of the shortened College calendar for the spring. Commencement Day will be May 10 and the Holiday program, described by Prof. H. W. Hill on page 15, begins the following day. The week will be climaxed by class reunions on Friday, Saturday, Sunday —May 15, 16, 17.

More of the interesting and informative letters from Charles G. Bolte '41 are carried on page 8. Progress of the Dartmouth group toward commissions in the King's Royal Rifles is reported in the abstracts published this month. Hanover Browsing will be found on page 16, Books by Dartmouth Men on page 17, College News page 18, Green Teams 23, and Alumni Notes begin on page 25.

We are sorry to lose Craig Kuhn '42 from the editorship of the Undergraduate Chair, a position he has filled so creditably for nearly a year. His enlistment in the Army Air Corps makes this his last installment, beginning page 81.

The cover shows the Hanover War Memorial in front of the Inn. Our staff photographer, Adrian Bouchard, has been recalled by the Army. We'll miss him and his cheerful, competent work for our magazine.
