1908

A substantial number of men in the Class have already indicated their intention of attending the postponed Thirty-fifth Reunion to be held at Hanover July 5-6-7.- Colonel Artie Soule, the Reunion chairman, announces that on Friday evening July .5, the President's reception will be held by President and Mrs. Dickey at their home. The Class Dinner will be held on Saturday evening, July 6, at the Hovey Grill in Thayer Hall. A member of the College Administration will attend the dinner to outline the changes in the College since the last Reunion, together with information in regard to the present College and the plans for the future Dartmouth. Artie advises that inasmuch as we will be the oldest class reunioning at that time, we will have priority as to rooming and eating facilities befitting our age and infirmities. Further detailed information in regard to the plans for the Reunion will be announced, but Artie urges men to bring their families and assures us that there will be entertainment for all ages. Anyone desiring information before further announcements are made, should communicate with Artie at 20 Hereford Road, Waban, Mass. It is hoped that there will be a splendid attendance of the members of the Class and their families at Hanover on July 5-6-7.

Baine, Blanchard, Furman, Winthrop Griffin, Munkelt, O'Shea, Rotch, Schilling, Stearns, Symmes, John Thompson and Phil Thompson attended the New York dinner. The members of the Class shepherded, as usual, by Mike Stearns again won the cup for the largest percentage of attendance out of a possible number of nearby residents. Mike must have the Indian sign on the judges, as he has won the cup for the Class a good many times now. Bank presidents O'Shea and Rotch with their new position and responsibilities must more and more look like residents of greater Manhattan, as Mike succeeded in having them counted. Seven hundred and fifty attended the dinner, and afterwards, Mike, in his usual generous way, invited the men in the Class to his room at Princeton-Dartmouth Club after the dinner where high-grade hospitality was dispensed. President John Dickey made the same favorable impression he made at Boston and at Chicago.

Fred Copeland, the bard of Randolph, Vt., broke into the Sunday New York Times a week or two ago to tell the readers of the now 1,000,000 copies of the Sunday Times that after May 1, regular two-hour ferry crossings will be resumed over Lake Champlain from Burlington to Port Kent, N. Y„ following the interruption by the war of the ferrying of tourists and their motor cars. Fred further advises in his story that a new boat now building at the ship yards of Shelburne Harbor, Vt., will go on the job as soon as it is completed. Fred's story goes on to sing the charms, the history, and attractions of Lake Champlain and its surrounding territory.

One of our Florida representatives learned that Life Greeley was still in St. Petersburg in April and that he had been doing a very successful job of fishing and loafing since his arrival there. Life had run into Jake Atwood 'O5 since arriving at St. Petersburg. Parson Bill English was in Hanover for a day the last week of April.

Alex Miller and his wife of Grantwood, N. J., were also in Hanover during the last week of that month, but missed Bill by a day or two. Presumably, Alex and his wife were there visiting their son, now in college.
