Greetings Twoters
Since the last writin' your correspondent has been doing a mite of travelling thus enabling him to visit with Gertrude and Ralph Brucker in Erie, Pa., (Ralph is the boss of the local W. T. Grant store and what a store it is!); Lucille and Ozzie Siegfried (Aiy! Aiy! Aiy!) and Florence and Herm Oliver of Buffalo.
Then more recently on a Boston trip he had the great fortune to see Lucy and Fran Leland, Betty and Bill Mann, Margaret and Len Morrissey, Emma and Ced Porter, Nan and Carroll Dwight, Allie and Carter Hoyt and Haskell Cohn, Gray Bates, and Bob Baldwin in Springfield. I tried to reach others but previous dates or absence prevented our getting together. My stop in Springfield, as usual, was brief; so perhaps you other Twoters there were spared!
The cut appearing at the head of these notes is the handiwork of Frank Hutchins, genial Rochester, N. Y. advertising man.
I have it on good authority that Herm Carlisle of Springfield is a grandfather. His daughter Joanne was presented with a boy early July. I think this qualifies Herm for some sort of a badge from the class. If any other Twoter lays a prior claim to this distinction please communicate with me pronto.
Phil Gove is back from the Navy and has resigned his teaching post at New York University. He is now with the G. & C. Merriam Co. of Springfield, Mass., as assistant editor. A 210-acre-farm on Old Patrick Road in Warren is the new home for Phil and Grace, with Norwood, a high school sophomore, Susan, a seventh grader, and Doris, 214 years old.
Another newcomer to one of Massachusetts finer cities is George Brooks. After a short stay at North Adams State Teachers College, George has accepted an offer from the Department of English at Springfield College at Springfield.
In early October Tom Lend stopped off in Bethlehem and had lunch with your correspondent. It was awfully good to see him after all the years and to learn of his activities.
Jack Dodd has recently been made the general commercial manager of the New York Telephone Co., for the Manhattan, Bronx and Westchester area. Congratulations!
At the Dartmouth Night party at the D Club in N. Y. on October 25, only five Twoters were on deck Healy, Earle, Morrell, Pullen and Marshall. Where in hell were the rest of you New Yorkers and suburbanites? You missed a good party.
Ivan M. Young seems to be lost. Mail is being returned from 153 Hemenway St., Boston and the Alumni Records office has asked our help to locate him. Anyone knowing of his address, connections or whereabouts is urged to write to me or to Hanover.
Gene Hotchkiss has three sons Frank, and the twins, Jim and Gene. And by the great horned spoon, all three of 'em are in the freshman class. Al Dickerson tells me (and he ought to know) that this is an all-time record and certainly qualifies Gene as the Biggest Dartmouth Father! Hearty congratulations to all four of you and best wishes!
As a matter of fact, 1922 has done all right by itself so far as the class of 1950 is concerned. Note these sons of Twoter fathers:
Kenneth son of Troyer Anderson; Llewellyn of Red Boyd; John of King Fauver; Louis Jr. of Louis Gluek; Charles Jr. of Charlie Hart; Richard of Larry Healy; Eugene III, Frank, and James sons of Eugene Hotchkiss; John Jr. of Johnnie Johnson; Robert of Killie Kilmarx; Thomas of Francis McMahon; John of Len Morrissey; John of Herm Oliver; Paul of Paul Peters; and Frederick of Ralph Rubins.
Congratulations to each one father and son!
August visitors at the Hanover Inn included the Harry Griswolds, the Haskell Cohns, the Bill Morrells and the Dick Litchfields.
Shaw Livermore has been appointed Professor of Business Economics in Cornell University's new School of Business and Public Administration. He has been recently connected with Dun and Bradstreet's and was on the staff of the Office of Production Management and the W. P. B. during the war.
At last we have the dope on Matt Cassin. After years at Nahant (Mass.), High School, Matt moved to the West Coast Omak, Wash., to be exact, and is with the Omak School Department.
A very interesting letter has just come in from Gaylord Anderson. Troyer, his brother, after completing 2 1/2 years as historian in the office of the Under-Secretary of War, has moved to New York as Professor of History at Hunter College.
Gay reports that Jim Hamilton has been persuaded to come to the University of Minnesota to head up the course in Hospital Administration that has been established in its School of Public Health. Jim is to be professor and course director, although he will have time and opportunity to continue his own consultation service in all phases of hospital administration that has been previously commented upon in these columns. Very likely Jim's headquarters will soon be at St. Paul rather than New Haven.
May you all enjoy the Christmas Season! Happy days and Happy New Year is the wish of the Marshalls to you all.
