1919

Second in the Green Derby is not good enough for 1919. Spider's recent news letter states in language that all of us understand our present position and what is expected of our Class in the Alumni Fund Campaign.— Objective $9150.00.—Contributions, to date, less than one-half that amount, from less than one sixth of the potential number who might normally contribute to the fund. 1919 up!!

On top of 1919 News Letter came official 1919 Reunion News from Red Colwell, reaching the Secretary's desk on May 9. The very reasonable class Reunion tax gives added incentive to putting a little bit more into the Alumni Fund, and also the promise of a busy and pleasant weekend in Hanover with a program well-planned should be an inducement for everyone who can possibly get there to be in Hanover June 28. Even Red's warning about attractive classmates' daughters should be an added inducement. The bets are two to one that 1919 class will outnumber any other Reunion class in Hanover over that weekend. When McMahon's golf team opposes the teams of '20 and '21, a span of years will mean nothing and Youth will again be displaying its athletic prowess.

A letter from Frederick W. Smith, Superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League, indicates his transfer to a new address, 1011 Mercantile Trust Building, Baltimore 2, Md.

He has made a very notable record of his work in Waterville, Maine, and has been included in "Who's Who" in their coming edition. Quoting from his letter: "I am going down there to assume the superintendency of that much-cussed organization, the Anti-Saloon League. I have been here for nearly 20 years and think that the time is ripe for a change."
