D.O.C. Manager

AN ADMINISTRATIVE REORGANIZATION of the Dartmouth Outing Club, elevating John A. Rand '38 to the graduate managership and giving a greater measure of responsibility to undergraduate officers, was announced by the Board of Trustees of the club on March 21. Rand, now the assistant manager, will succeed Hans Paschen '28T on July 1.

Serious financial problems for the D.O.C. have led to the adoption of a policy of general retrenchment including the closing of the Mt. Moosilauke Ravine Camp as a public resort at the end of the present season. It is expected that a caretaker will be maintained there so that the lodge will be available to club members on the same basis as smaller D.O.C. cabins, but meals and special services will be discontinued.

Rand has been assistant manager of the Outing Club since the fall of 1938, joining the staff after an undergraduate record of prominence in the club. At the present time he is also serving as chief air raid warden for Hanover.

Paschen, whose guidance of D.O.C. affairs was praised by the Board of Trustees in an official resolution, took over the post of Graduate Manager on July 1, 1939. Before coming to Dartmouth he was associated with Paine, Webber and Company in Boston and was active in the Dartmouth Outing Club of Boston, which he helped found. He attended the Tuck School as a special student and received the M.C.S. degree in 1928.
