1905

The palm this month goes to Pete and Margaret Bedell, who have two sons in the service.

Bob, Dartmouth '4O, is a Naval aviator with ensign rank. He got his wings in September, 1942, at Corpus Christi, Texas, and is now stationed at Alameda, Calif.

The younger son, David, is a sergeant and has been stationed in Newfoundland for about a year.

Nancy, the daughter, who was graduated from Wellesley in 1939, is a children's librarian in New York. Best of luck to the Bedell family.

Harry G. Dennison is employed at the Portsmouth Navy Yard. His new address is 266 Middle Street, Portsmouth, N. H.

Frank T. Chamberlain has retired from business and is now resident at Knollin Farms, Sandy Creek, New York.

Harold M. Haskell, who is with the J. F. McElwain Company in Nashua, is a member from New Hampshire of the National Committee for the Conservation of Manpower in War Industries of the United States Department of Labor. This Committee is working to improve safety training in War Production Training Courses.

Roger Brown's daughter, Nancy Gibbs Brown, was married to Gerald Sylvester Gray at the First Parish Church in Concord, Massachusetts, on April 17, 1943. The best wishes of the Class are extended to Mr. and Mrs. Gray.

Bob Harding writes that he had a very pleasant call recently from that genial gentleman, C. C. Hills, who gets around. C. C. kindly sent your secretary a copy of the '05 Aegis to replace a lost copy.

The Class of '05 joins the men of '06 in mourning the loss of William T. Bell of Concord. William was a very useful citizen. Although he had been in poor health for the last two or three years, he maintained an admirable serenity of spirit and a keen interest in Dartmouth. His quiet determination in the face of physical impairment was an inspiration to his many friends.

A recent pleasure was a good visit with Harry Boynton Preston in Keene. Harry is in the best of health and continues to enjoy his work as an instructor in Keene Teachers College.
