1888

Mr. and Mrs. Harry Frost left for their winter home in Florida the week before Christmas, their departure for the South having been delayed by an arm injury Mrs. Frost received in early autumn. Their winter address is 4701 29th Avenue, South, St. Petersburg, Florida.

In a Christmas letter from Burt Redfield the good news came that he left the hospital and returned home November 10, and had been steadily improving ever since.

Frank Reynolds, who has done such splendid work as our class agent in recent years, has retired from his important position as engineer of the Hartford Electric Light Company. The Hartford Courant, in its issue of December 30, 1942, carried an account of his long and successful career, of which abstracts follow:

Throughout the past half-century Mr. Reynolds has been actively engaged in electrical construction, and closely connected with the great changes which have taken place in the industry.

After graduating from Dartmouth in 1889, Mr. Reynold's first connection was with ThompsonHouston Company at Lynn, Mass., later a part of the General Electric Company. He supervised the installation of generating apparatus in many cities. Among these were the street railway plant in Cincinnati; installations for the U. S. Navy, street railway system, and Potomac Electric Company in Washington, D. C. He installed central station equipment in Chicago, Baltimore, St. Louis, Detroit, and New Jersey. In 1907 he installed generators for the Hudson-Manhattan Tunnel, and in 1910 came to Hartford to install a turbine at the Dutch Point Station. During 1917, while in New York engaged in the electrification of the New York Central Terminal, he was granted leave of absence to come again to Hartford to supervise another powerhouse addition. As an outcome he became associated with the Hartford company, and through the last quarter of a century has been occupied with the many construction projects of the company, during which time the output of the company has multiplied 10 times.

Aside from his work in the electrical business, his ability in an entirely different field is known to a wide circle of friends. For many years Mr. Reynolds was active in construction and maintenance of golf courses. He served as chairman of the Greens Committee of Scarsdale Country Club for 10 years, while stationed near New York. His studies of putting greens made him an authority on the subject, and enabled him to enhance the pleasure of many devotees of golf. Soon after coming to Hartford in 1919 he became chairman of the greens committee of the Hartford Golf Club, and is now permanent chairman.
