1910
Andy Scarlett is having a grand experience at G.I. University at Biarritz where he heads up the chemistry branch with the aid of a French plumber and various G.I.'s he got organized. His classroom is a combination of two bedrooms; planks across ammunition boxes serve as seats. He has 300 students who are mature, serious-minded and know what they want. In an early quiz the lowest mark was an 84, which is something when we realize that Andy has always insisted that his boys know their chemistry. Interestingly enough, one ot his pupils is Harry Sandberg's son, Herbert.

Bill Harlow's son, Lt. William L. (D '32) was one of the real tragedies of the war. Captured September 12, 1944, liberated by Patton's Army April 2, 1945, he insisted on rejoining immediately, and the next day he was killed in the attack.
Mike Elliott, 1910's distinguished professor of psychology at the University of Minnesota, has received much nation-wide commendation for his editorial guidance of the well-known Century Psychology Series of publications issued by D. Appleton-Century Cos. Mike's smart, and is one of the fellows due back in Hanover for our next Reunion.
Others due there are Tom Heneage, Shorty Stern and Chet Scott. It's not too early for you to start planning for what will probably be the finest gathering 1910 ever had—a lot of the gang yearn to be back there in Hanover.
We met Else Jenness and Gay Gleason not long ago in Hanover, and were mighty sorry to miss the Jess Wilsons when they called at our home, also Pineo Jackson and his wife who were much taken with our humble location. We'll admit, however, that there is a lot of landscape to look at on a clear dayand we have spent many a meal hour just eating away and "looking" at the valleys and mountains—they are particularly beautiful right now and later in their snow-white garments.
Offspring—Caesar Young's son Lt. (jg) Jim says that his liberal education at Dartmouth enables him to understand what goes on under many a brass hat jimmy N'ourse, another Lt. (jg), has been flying a pBM in the Philippines—his brother Bart is completing his training at Pensacola, while Ken, due to be 18 in January and to graduate from High School in February, is wondering whether it will be the Army or college Barsha Powers Shattuck was married recently to Samuel Baugh 2nd, USCGR, of Rosemont, pa Hope Wilson, Wellesley junior, is three-time president of her class Young lack Field is back in this country again after making a splendid record in Europe—Charlie jackson has seen much service on a PT boat; his brother Ralph (Peanut) enlisted at 17 to serve on a landing craft in the Pacific, while their sister Katherine was with the Red Cross in India.
1910's Famous Arkansas Attorney, Al Meehan, invites the class to come to Stuttgart in December or January to see ducks—and if the postal he sent is any evidence, the "skies are actually black" with them.
Brown Cooper, Fort Wayne Big Wig, has had for two years an interesting war job in charge of suggestions at the local G.E. plant. He also manages the Masonic Temple Building and edits the Square and Compass.
Johnny Finn, married, no children, with hobbies of music and keeping two houses in repair (roofs excluded), is nearly ready to retire after teaching shorthand and typing in Jersey City's Dickinson High School since 1918.
Al, Brown and Johnny are fellows who would be mighty welcome at our Reunion, which John VanderPyl says should be an antidote to the rigors of wartime responsibilities and should "make boys of us again for a few days."
We shall be glad to receive any Reunion suggestions you fellows may care to send in.
Secretary, Canaan St., Canaan, N. H. Treasurer, 1 Weybosset St., Providence, R. I
