Ros Bogue is now representing Allman, Everham & Company of Detroit in Lan sing, and is enjoying his new connection. He is also Chief Air Warden of his township, with a population of about 5000. It has taken a lot of work to get organized and keep the workers interested, as of course being a long way from the coast, many do not feel that such activities are at all necessary. However, Ros has kept at it, and now has a total crew of about 75.
Since being in Washington we have enjoyed the Dartmouth activities. We usually attend the Alumni lunch every Tuesday at the Hotel Annapolis, frequently meet some old friends, and we have had the pleasure of becoming acquainted with this live group of younger alumni who are active here in the Nation's Capitol. Many of these younger men are directly engaged in war work of various sorts, and when called upon always have an interesting story to tell, often off the record, but always authentic. It has also been a very great pleasure to meet some of the sons of the Class who are in town, "Joe" O'Leary, son of our own "Bill," is with one of the departments as an accountant, while Malcolm Halliday '2B is Asst. General Counsel for the National Labor Relations Board. Andy Wood is with the Navy Department, doing special work, but we have not been able to see him yet.
Robber Thayer writes in to say that he is well and happy, and is now with the Bar Bel Court at Indio, California. He has a hobby of raising flowers, particularly roses, and still has hopes of producing a black one. He has had the misfortune to entirely lose his hearing but is very successful in lip reading. After reading about the tough winter New England has had, he is reminded of the time the quarter returned from Wells River, and arrived at Norwich Station at 4 A.M., and the thermometer at 40 below. Noses were almost frozen, before reaching the campus, after a tough climb up the hill in the snow.
