1923
A spot of census information won't be amiss, since there has been some moving around among us and you may have been wondering how to get in touch with some of the fellows. So here are the latest addresses of a few in service—and non-service men who have been shifting their lares and penates
Bill Conrad, 7052 Santa Monica Blvd., Los Angeles 28, Calif.; Rev. John Cummings, 36 Bolton St., Marlboro, Mass.; Dwight Keef, 81 W. Pierrepont Ave., Rutherford, N. J.; Dr. Babe Miner, 960 Longmeadow St., Longmeadow, Mass.; Sammy Sammis, Cheshire, Mass.; Bill Taylor, Yachting Publishing Corp., 205 E. 42 St., N. Y. 17, N. Y.; Charlie Zimmerman, 115 Broad St., Hartford, Conn.; Francis Beach, 247 Watson Blvd., Pittsburgh 14, Pa.; Sol Cohn, 230 W. 105 St., N. Y. 25, N. Y.; J. Farwell Maycock, 1497 E. Grand Blvd., Detroit, Mich.
After a long and hyper-aqueous experience in the Navy during the war, it must seem good to Sammy Sammis to be back on the job of running his Farnum Ski Slopes again.
As reported last month by Go Bliss, Babe Miner has established his medical practice at Longmeadow, Mass., a delightful town. Just the other day, Babe wrote, "I am enclosing a picture of the one and only Irishman taken at our farm in Townshend, Vt., during the deer season. The others in the picture are Virginia and Richardson Miner. The Irishman posed for this big-game hunt as he started out to fetch himself a deer. His only difficulty was, he was carrying a wooden gun. Had he really sighted a deer, I am sure that the Irishman, even with a wooden gun, would have gotten him." (Matter of fact, he has an expression of supreme confidence.) Babe's new location in Longmeadow will give him and his family much more frequent opportunities to spend some time at their farm. From Lancaster, Pa., comes the news that John Young, who served in the first World War as a Marine and this time as a lieutenant commander, is now on terminal leave. Before joining the Navy, John was advertising manager of the Armstrong Cork Cos., and, later, director of advertising for the Gruen Watch Cos.
Mrs. Natalie Allen Kimball of Newton Highlands and Fort Lauderdale, Fla., has announced the engagement of her daughter, Miss Natalie Allen Kimball, to Bob McMillan, who is now running the Cardigan School in Caanan, N. H. The best of good wishes to you both!
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lawrence Smith of East Orange, N. J., announced in December the engagement of their daughter, Marjorie Brooks, to Clint Wells, who is associated with the Chemical Bank and Trust Cos., of New York. They were married in January, and we wish them great happiness.
Dr. Ed Grevatt attended Clint's wedding and says he helped reduce the visible supply of wedding cake at the reception. Ed also says he met Charlie Zimmerman in New York in December, and tells us that Harry Watson is now living in Winter Park, Fla., where he is raising oranges. Another bit from the Grevatt news ticker runs to the effect that Bob Whittinghill recently purchased a home in Glen Ridge, N. J., where he now lives.
I bumped into Ferd Frankel on a commuter train one night and we had a good visit. Ferd and his family live in Harrison, N Y., where he interests himself considerably in civic affairs. His electrical manufacturing company is in New York.
The Boston Standard reports that the Life Insurance Agency Management Association has appointed Charlie Zimmerman director of the Institutional Relations Division: "Mr. Zimmerman, former president of the National Assn. of Life Underwriters, and long an outstanding figure in agency ranks," says the Standard, "is retiring from active service in the Navy as a captain to join the association in his new post as director of institutional relations. Thus the association will enter a new field of activity under Captain Zimmerman's direction, undertaking to integrate and coordinate all activities within the institution that relate to agency management, and will seek to bring into sharper focus the area of effective field management." Nice going, Charlie, and good luck.
Lei£ Norstrand and his wife have the Indian sign on the servant problem, according to Life magazine, which ran a profusely illustrated five-page article about the manipulator of Leif's menage, entitled "The Perfect Servant." You'll get a good idea of the article (if you haven't already seen it) from some of the headlines and captions which run: "Sadie Buick and her employers set a standard for U. S. households"; "Sadie keeps busy all day long"; "Good treatment dignifies Sadie's job"; "When Norstrands are away Sadie has privilege of serving coffee to her friends in living room." The theme of the entire report is the consideration and understanding, thoughtful treatment of Sadie by Leif and his wife, and the pleasanter living that results all around.
New additions to the membership o£ the Dartmouth Club in New York are '23ers Ardie Herz and Lee Young. We've met them there a few times lately and had an uncorking good time.
January stopper-overs at the Hanover Inn included '23ers Sherm Baldwin, Ted Shapleigh, Frank Doten and Charlie Jones. To which we hasten to add that the Inn is a very good place to be inside of in January.
Jule Rippel, chairman, took all honors for accomplishment on Class Memorial Funds for the season, winding up not only with the greatest increase but also with the largest balance. And when I say Jule I mean you and the sizeable checks you've been sending in as curtain-raisers on what we all want to be the biggest Class Memorial Fund ever presented to the College at a 25th Reunion. If we hold the rolling start we have now through '46, '47 and early '4B we'll make it, but it will still take a lot of doing, as other classes are hard on our heels.
Sherm Baldwin says keep your plans polished up for Reunion in Hanover the last weekend in July!
A GOOD JUMP and a happy landing are approved by Pudge Neidlinger '23 (center), his wife, Marion, and Charles Proctor 'OO, Professor-Emeritus of Physics, at the Ski Jump during Winter Weekend.
Secretary, 84 Hillside Ave., New Rochelle, N. Y. Treasurer, 32 Ridgeland Terrace, Rye, N. Y.
