Dartmouth Night

THE DARTMOUTH NIGHT gathering in Hanover on November 9 brought to town a large representation of alumni classes who joined with the local group and the College body in Webster Hall in suitably celebrating the annual event.

President John Sloan Dickey, who was introduced as Dartmouth's new head to the undergraduates at the exercises, spoke and a telegram was read from President- Emeritus Hopkins, who was out of town and unable to attend the Hanover celebration. John L.-Sullivan '21, Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Air, flew up from Washington and was present with some of his classmates. John R. McLane '07, senior member of the Board of Trustees, spoke for the Board and presided at the festivities. Nichol M. Sandoe Jr. '45, Green Key president, spoke for the undergraduates, and Dr. Earl Cranston '16, Phillips Professor of Religion, gave the invocation.

The close of the war brought back to the program the customary reading of telegrams from alumni clubs and groups meeting on Dartmouth Night far outside the Hanover area. Forty-eight Dartmouth Clubs and Alumni Associations wired messages of greeting and good cheer to the parent Dartmouth Night and one salutation was received from Europe sent by the Dartmouth Club of France.
