April 1945

GREEN KEY, WHICH disbanded temporarily in April 1943, was brought back to life on March 15 when Dean Neidlinger and a committee of the society's alumni selected 14 civilian undergraduates as new Green Key members and entrusted to them the task of reviving student-government activities which have been suspended for the past two years. Six classes, from 1943 through 1948, were represented in the student group.

At a meeting of the entire civilian undergraduate body in 105 Dartmouth on March 19, the new Green Key was inducted and its plans and temporary organization explained. For the present, Green Key will assume the functions of Palaeopitus and the Interdormitory Council in addition to those traditionally assigned to the society itself. The regular constitution has been temporarily suspended and the society revived by the College administration in accordance with the vote of Green Key at its last meeting in 1943.

Only one member of the last regular Green Key—Nichol M. Sandoe Jr. '45—remains in college. The 14 new members nominated by Dean Neidlinger and Dean Strong and chosen by the alumni advisory committee are: Lomax Littlejohn Jr. '43, Babylon, N. Y.; Kenneth J. Manthorne '43, Englewood, N. J.; Robert H. Purnell '44, Short Hills, N. J.; Wilbur C. Reinman '44, Youngstown, O.; Richard Y. Murray '45, Orange, N. J.; Rodney A. Walser '45, Hazleton, Pa.; Richard A. Howe '46, West Orange, N. J.; Richard C. Price '46, Denver, Colo.; Donald R. Campbell '47, West Hartford, Conn.; Charles R. Tourtellotte '47, North Grosvenordale, Conn.; David J. Kadyk '48, Winnetka, Ill.; Alan H. McAllister '48, Manchester, N. H.; Richard D. Leggat '48, Lowell, Mass.; and Robert S. Russell '48, Saugerties, N. Y.
