1886*

All '86 Boys and Girls are proud of our 169%» next the top percentage, of contributors to the Alumni Fund in 1941, as shown on page 17 of April MAGAZINE. We Boys also take off our hats to the nine '86 widows who made memorial gifts (see April MAGAZINE, page 41, for names).

Newton, our Class Agent, is just starting his 1942 drive for the Fund. He hopes that all of us, both Boys and Girls, will get the habit and become repeaters.

Dr. Eliza Taylor Ransom spent the winter in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, but has now left for California.

Mrs. W. E. Chaffin has left Hingham, Mass., to reside in Strasburg, Virginia.

From Mrs. Snow, and the December MAGAZINE, p. 54, I learn that Conrad E. Snow, Dartmouth, 1912, is Officer in Charge of the Legal Division of the Materiel Branch of the Signal Corps. He has so Commissioned Officers, and 50 secretaries under him. His own Commission has been extended for a second year from November 25, 1941.

A most intimate friend of our Leslie, Governor Spaulding of New Hampshire, died just eight years to a day after Leslie. He used frequently to "sit in" with '86 at Alumni Dinners in Boston. Newton says he should have been elected an honorary member of our class.
