1925

A card from Line Davis says that he is through at the Harvard Lab where he put in some many long days during the war and is now soaking up some sunshine and rest down on Cape Cod before getting into the harness again.

Pete Blodgett is still having trouble with his back. He has been laid up all summer, having no fun at all. Write to him if you get a chance.

Drove to Saxtons River, Vt., to see Larry Leavitt about taking my sprout this year. Larry was very happy in the middle of bull dozers, steam shovels and earth movers, ripping out new athletic fields. Later we went into his finely appointed office. As he sat handling his mail and phone he made the perfect picture of the head of a successful New England academy and the New England academy is a most important part of our educational system.

Bill Sleigh called with his wife and the larger of the two small Sleighs. Bill knows where one can get a fine old church organ for the asking.

Ralph Thompson, our leading tooth puller, vacationed at Wolfeboro but I missed seeing him.

Frank Wallis is busy collecting evidence for the war crimes trials. He has been all over Europe by plane, bicycle, jeep and on foot. Frank wrote home that one nice part about the job is the privilege, when overtaken by the shades of night, of picking out a good looking mansion, taking over and having a really comfortable place to bed down.

Shea and Wallis make a most able team in helping put the heat onto the Nazi higher-ups. Incidentally, we might point with pride to the fact that 1925 has done right well in producing two men of such outstanding ability that they landed on one of the most important legal assignments of our times.

Jim McAndrews has been named Postmaster of Adams, Mass. Sounds like a good deal for Jim, for postmasters live long and the remuneration aint to be sneezed at.

The August 8 issue of the New York Times carries a long story about Clif Hill being made Director of the Office of Civilian Requirements. When the appointment was made it was an extremely important post. As you know, Clif has held a number of vital jobs during the war..... Col. Nort Canfield is back in the States. He gets his mail at the New Haven Hospital, New Haven, Conn Carl Bridenbaugh is back with his old love—history. Specifically, he is at the Institute of Early American History, Goodwin Building, Williamsburg, Va.

Al Perkins, who is director of film and radio for Look is at 711 Bleeker Ave., Orienta Point, Mamaroneck, New York.

Frank Brick and Doc Tanzer have received their promotions to the rank of major.

They aint much happened sense the last riting. Gas is off rationning. folks is tearing up and down the road, we is running some accidents in our weekly papers like we used to, and they is lugging in speeders for me to scowl at. Feller phoned and ast me how much it would cost to get married. I says "Regular service, five bux. Ten bux with shotgun. Fifteen bux with deluxe shotgun and I put on. a dark dubble breasted suit." Being a Yankee he picked the five buck service. I guess it took, all O.K. for I seen him the other night lugging his wife to the doctor. Awl '25ers married for free and liberal discounts to awl other Dartmouth men.
