1912
MORE REUNION AFTERMATH Correspondence still comes in from those who were at our 35th Reunion, evidencing the unanimous opinion that it was the best reunion yet, as well as from those who could not attend expressing regrets for their enforced absences and conveying their greetings and best wishes to all Cap Allen, the Mrs., and daughter Nancy, Smith College Senior, flew to Denver on June 19, to visit friends at Rocky Mountain Park. Nancy's summer job as a cartographer with the National Survey Co., in Chester, Vermont, made a later trip out of the question. However, they were at Hanover the previous week attending the graduation from Dartmouth of son Richard, whose ambition is to teach physics after further study. Older daughter, Hortense, is now being looked after by Cap's grandson of six months at Oberlin University, where his father, Dr. Warren Walker, a recent Harvard Ph.D., is an instructor in comparative anatomy DocQuint was on his farm near Calgary, Alberta, where he raises show horses and was then trying to get a next year's winner. His wife was in South America at the time and his daughter was showing horses on circuit. His older son is a permanent R. C. A. F. squad leader at Staff College. The younger son, Indian by birth, will enter Dartmouth Because of the oil shortage Click Morrill was forced to attend to some tanker legislation in Washington. However, he had a good summer and managed to spend July at Rockport, Massachusetts. Sam Hobbs was quiet and subdued at home recovering from a three months' illness but was then looking forward to resuming his work of selling the idea of cement and concrete. Son Sam, University of California '39, is working on building construction with a Los Angeles contractor and has two infant sons. Daughter Mary Lou, Pomona College '4l, now Mrs. Malcolm H. Moore, lives next door and Sam is expecting soon again to become a grandfather Honey Brooks was disappointed by a "demand performance" to attend a convention of his company at Asbury Park, N. J Jim English was managing the romance languages department at Grove City College for the summer session Alvie Garcia says that he does not know when he enjoyed a return to Hanover more "maybe because I behaved myself more correctly and staying out of town at Mart Remsen's place kept me away from temptations. Five years seems too long to wait for another chance to see one another—now is the time when reunions should come every year."
Sons and Daughters Pett Pettingell's daughter Helen, who was at reunion, is a dietitian at Boston City Hospital and daughter Jane is a nurse stationed at the Boston clinic of the American Mutual Insurance Company offices. Both come home frequently which pleases Mother and Dad RoyLewis reports that Art Burnham is at last a grandpap and his kids did what he never could do—got themselves a fine baby girl. Don Burnham '44 finished his internship at Mary Hitchcock Hospital in June and is now stationed at Bethesda, Md., for a two-year trick in the Navy, and Betty is with him. Jim Burnham is in the accelerated course at Dartmouth and, while home for vacation, he and Roy resumed fishing activities and Roy's hammer-throwing coaching Dirk Remsen Jr. '42 is with the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. in New York in the Group Insurance Division. Ted is back at Hanover as a sophomore with a big year of work ahead of him as a member of the board of the DailyDartmouth to which he was elected last Spring. Bill Remsen '43 will graduate from Columbia Law School in February after completing his three-year course in two years.
Henry Van Dyne reports that as of the middle of September the Class Endowment Fund stood at $15,721.65, all of which has been paid in and sent to Hanover. Although there will be no active campaign by Henry and his Committee this year, remember it is always open season for making additions to this fund.
Doc Worcester was married to Miss Virginia Fessler on September 13, at Brielle, New Jersey. In the wedding party were his two sons, Dr. George F. Worcester, Jr., Duke '41 and Dr. John T. Worcester, Dartmouth '42. On their honeymoon to New England, the bride and groom stopped over at the Hanover Inn. Doc is a well known opthamologist, practicing in Englewood, New Jersey.
With sadness we report the news of BillyBaxter's death at his home in Arlington, Virginia, on September 18. In acknowledging receipt of an expression of condolence on behalf of the Class, Mart Baxter wrote that Billy "was looking forward to the last reunion so much and the days of the reunion found him going through all his class books and my heart went out to him because I knew he would never attend one again."
Through Pett Pettingell, Bob Parks sends his regards to all the gang in the Class.
Lee White is enjoying his 31st year with Bankers Commercial Corporation of New York City. He says that there is no change in his work "but in deference to my graying head they have made me a Senior Vice President." He is also president of The Aeolian Company and American Piano Company, manufacturers of fine pianos. On his farm near Westport, Connecticut, where he lives, he breeds English setters and runs them extensively in field trial competition.
Since July x, Warren Bruner has been relieved of admission and housing responsibilities at Hobart and William Smith Colleges, Geneva, New York, and has been concentrating on career determination and placement. In other words, he helps students decide what career fields to enter and then helps them locate in those fields. His boys, "Ink" and "Pudge," transferred to Western Maryland University to have their senior year with their former classmates. His daughter, Imogene, enters her sophomore year at William Smith College this fall. She made the Dean's list last spring. Warren has been able to buy a house in Geneva so that he will no longer have to drive the 14 miles each way to Clifton Springs when he gets possession of the new home, which he hopes will be before Christmas.
Chief Wheeler spent the summer at a camp in East Bridgewater, Mass., recovering from the heart ailment that has kept him out of circulation the last few months and prevented his getting back for reunion.
Ted Miner has sent in a most attractive booklet issued by his company, The Foxboro Company, Foxboro, Massachusetts, depicting the old town and the growth of the company's instrument manufacturing business.
For the edification of the classmates who could not attend reunion, as well as the enjoyment of those who were there, your Secretary would appreciate receiving snapshots taken at the reunion for appearance from time to time with this column.
