My correspondent in New York, Bucky Lewers, reports a great session of the Dartmouth Alumni in New York on April 26. The 'O3 delegation made a fine showing with seven men gracing the boards to make it one up on the Boston delegation at their dinner. "What's the matter Boston?" Thus spoke Bucky. Those in attendance were Kid Cohen, Harold Hess, Jules Walther, Win Rice, Lewis Haney, Ray Brown and Bucky Lewers, the latter doing the work of rounding up this fine delegation.

It has been long moons since I have heard from Harry Bullard at Governor's Corner in Alfred, Me., but in reply to the invitation to attend the Five-Year Class Dinner he writes that his son is on furlough after finishing training at the Naval Air Station preceding Pacific assignment, and that he will not be able to attend the dinner. He sends remembrance "to all the boys."
