1922*
We say again—it was a good Reunion. Those of us who were in Hanover a couple of months ago certainly enjoyed ourselves, and we hope that those of you who read the account of the week-end in the June issue were regretful that you weren't there to share in the fun.
To those of you who were not in Hanover in May, the following letter regarding Bunny Bunnell and his wife will have an equal dramatic interest. This letter reached me from Hollis Riddle '23, assistant treasurer of the Goodyear Aircraft Corp. of Akron:
"As you know, Bunny has been located for some years in Manila with the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Export Corp. He was due to sail for home in the middle of January, and one of his immediate desires was to purchase a farm which he had discovered in New Hampshire. Unfortunately, the Japanese invasion prevented his leaving the Islands. He stayed on the job, surviving two bombings of the Goodyear warehouse.
"The last we heard from him directly was a routine business cable sent two days before the Japanese occupation of the city. Subsequently, we have learned that both Gladys and Bunny are among the Americans who, apparently, are in the hands of the Japanese. This information comes through the State Department's records of Americans unaccounted for who were known to be in Manila just prior to occupation. All effort to obtain direct word through the International Red Cross or neutral agencies has thus far failed.
"No man had a greater love for Dartmouth or New Hampshire than Bunny, and I am sure that a great deal of his time will be given to thoughts of the College and the friends he has made there."
With all our hearts, we hope that Bunny and his wife will at some future day, not too far removed, again walk the streets of Hanover.
Our wire from Chicago recently tapped out the message that Modie Spiegel was awarded the honorary degree of Master of Arts by Grinnell College at their recent commencement. The citation was ample indication of the high regard in which Modie is held.
It has been a long time since we have had any first-hand word from Wesley Nutten. We were doubly glad, therefore, to hear from him via Bob Booth. Wes has been connected with the law firm of Flint & Macay, 458 South Spring St., Los Angeles, since 1924, after having been graduated in 1923 from the University of Michigan Law School. He has been a member of the firm since 1931. Home—70B North Crescent Drive, Beverly Hills. Wife-Mfar- garet—and kids—Donald u, and W. L. N. 3rd, 13. During the summer the family live at Newport-Balboa where Wes indulges his hobby—sword-fishing and luxury—a sport cruiser. Last year, he received the Newport Tuna Club button for catching a sword-fish on light tackle. Thanks Wes, for your informative letter.
At present, we have a record of six Two-ters in active service with our armed forces. Attention! Major Donald C. Griffin, Regimental Surgeon; Lieutenant-Colonel John W. McKoan, Medical Detachment; Major Will F. Nicholson, Air Corps; Lieutenant Lawrence A. Waite, Navy; Major Theodore R. Robie, Air Corps; and Laurence A. Henderson. At this writing, we do not know of Larry's assignment.
Bill Pierce, for many years associated with Bacon Whipple Co., is now connected with the Peabody Coal Co., Treasurer's office, also in the Windy City.
How many of you recognized the people in the front cover advertisement of the Hanover Inn in the April issue of the MAGAZINE? If these old eyes did not deceive me, the gentleman walking between two charming ladies was none other than Harvey Moses, Springfield, Mass. banker. At his left was Catherine, the Missus. All due thanks to Ford and Peggy Sayre for so graciously publicizing the Grand Old Class of 1922.
Bill Bullen is responsible for bringing Walt Sands' light from under the bushel through forwarding a clipping from a Boston paper a short time ago which outlined Walter's functioning as the Director of the Protector Division of Civilian Defense at Lexington.
Clif Watson's firm, the Emmons Loom Harness Co., Charlotte, N. C., has granted him a leave of absence so that he might accept a temporary position with the Textile Machinery Branch of the War Production Board. Clif's office is Temporary Building E, 4th and Adams Sts., Washington.
Bob Hight has recently moved from Portland to 42 Fells Road, Winchester, Mass. His company—Chevrolet Motor Division, Cambridge, Mass., where Bob is assistant manager. Bob has been feeling under the weather for some time and we are hoping that he is back on his toes again by this time.
Howard Knight reports a new connection as accountant with Ogilvie, Swanson & McKenzie, West Adams St., Chicago.
Art Norton has a job at the New York Navy Yard. I'd like to hear from you, Art.
Dalton and Alice Brown have an- nounced the arrival of Lawrence on April 25. Brownie is an engineer for Drydock Associates and is living at 200 Western Branch Boulevard, Portsmouth, Va.
Phil Kimball's address is 228 North Fayette St., Beckley, W. Va. His company-Duff-Norton Mfg. Co. of Pittsburgh.
Harford Steen sends his best regards to Jim Caroll and Bill Gallagher. Apparently, Harford is ill as he says that he will be at the Homer Folks Hospital at One-onta, N. Y. for some time. Jimmie and Bill, do your duty and write your old pal.
This is the last issue of the MAGAZINE until October. I wish you all a very happy summer and will look forward to saying hello to you again a few months from now. Good luck!
