When you receive this, 1938's Tenth Reunion will be about two weeks off. Gearing its activity to a post-card response from the Class that showed a definite sentiment for reunion, even from many who couldn't hope to be there, your Reunion committee has gone quietly about making the necessary arrangements, and the sizeable group who have already signified their intention of coming to Hanover the week-end of May 15-17 will have a fine chance to draw a breath and relax.
John Zimmerman is treasurer of the Reunion committee and asks that you send him your check for $10 to 63 Robbins Ave., Amityville, N. Y. by May 11, if you plan to be there. The fee is $11 after that date, or at the door. Plus one additional buck for each wife.
Howie Sargeant, who is arranging the class dinner at the Inn on Saturday night, May 16, relays the good news Ross McKenney, D.O.C. trail-blazer and yarn-spinner de luxe, will give us a line on today's Hanover. Bob Gould is working up the beer and a simple, serviceable costume, and Ellie Noyes with Dick Olmsted is handling the picnic and other local arrangements for chairman Dick Hazen.

By Telephone to The New York Times
Hollywood, Calif., April 7—Robert Ryan, stage actor who was seen last season on Broadway in "Clash By Night" with Tallulah Bankhead, reported to RKO today for the male lead in Pare Lorentz's first picture, "Name, Age and Occupation." He will play a World "War veteran who spends the two decades of peace earning a living in various American industries.
As those who have seen the great documentaries "The River" and "The Fight for Life" will recognize, this is not Lorentz's "first" picture, but his first Hollywood venture. The result should be an interesting one, and it is a great chance for the former Dartmouth leather-pusher. Part of the build-up ballyhoo for Ryan, we understand, will be to depict the new male star as a combination of Gary Cooper and Thomas Meighan.
