MASON I. INGRAM '29 has been appointed Assistant Bursar of the College, a permanent appointment effective August 1. The bulk of his duties will be in the handling of GI educational accounts, which this fall will involve about 80% of the student body.
Enlisting in the Army prior to Pearl Harbor, Ingram was personnel sergeantmajor of the entire 9th Division Artillery, until shortly after war was declared, at which time he requested transfer to active Navy duty due to the fact that he held a reserve commission as ensign in the Supply Corps. In March of 1942 he was transferred to the Navy and sent to the Supply Corps School at Harvard for an intensive four-month training period.
Following his training he was assigned as Disbursing Officer with the Seabees, first at Davisville, Rhode Island, and later at Quoddy Village, Maine. After duty with the Surplus Material Disposal Program, he was discharged from the Navy in May 1946 with the rank of lieutenant commander.
A native of Enfield, N. H., Ingram graduated from Enfield High School and received his A.B. from Dartmouth in 1929. For the next year he was employed as manager of the Lowell, Mass., office of the Mutual Industrial Service, Inc., and for the following eleven years as manager and assistant treasurer of the Industrial Credit Corporation of New England in Lowell. He is married and has two children.
