"T.D." Jexoett with Marian and Steve in Steve's car drove across the country to visit Betty and her family in California. A card from Zion National Park in Utah showed where they ate on August 30. We are indebted to "T.D." for the 1946 reunion pictures used. The secretary would like other shots taken in Hanover that July.

June 18-19-20, 1948 are the 35th Reunion dates. Save them and your pennies and dimes so as not to miss seeing those in the class you'd like to meet in Hanover next year.

Philip Cushing Noble and Miss Elizabeth Roberta Harlow were married at Sidney, N. Y., on August 4, 1947. Philip is the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Noble and the couple spent part of their honeymoon at the Noble farm in Barnard, Vermont.

Kathleen Pishon, with the two boys Nicky and Peter, spent the summer at Papoose Pond camps on Star Route, Norway, Maine, in a tiny cabin, with no car and few conveniences, so they went native and loved it.

Vic Dunbar let us know that Donald S. Dunbar is a new member of the staff at Hamilton College and in the psychology courses makes a major possible for Hamilton students. Don got his master's degree at Columbia after graduating cum laude at Dartmouth in 1944. He taught during the past year at Long Island University and this past summer was Head Counselor of the senior group at Pioneer Youth Camp at Ulster Park, N. Y. Vic and Marjorie plan on Hanover Holiday next June along with the Reunion.

Len Manley has found among Sherm Ward's reels of film the movies taken at our 15th reunion. These and others will be shown in Hanover during our 35th.

Edmund "Buck" Freeman is rejoicing after a successful operation on his right eye. In June, his oculist diagnosed his trouble as glaucoma and as eye drops failed to reduce the pressure he operated on July 14, performing an iradectomy. The operation was entirelysuccessful and the left one was operated on sometime after the middle of September.

Nor Catterall and Dot "saw Boston" during their hotelman's Busman's Holiday. They had been down on Cape Cod and then, while at North Scituate (Cliff House), they toured Boston and the secretary lunched with them at the Paul Revere Room, Parker House (a proper setting for a seeing-Boston trip). June 18-19-20 were added to their agenda for 1948. .... Then Bill Towler phoned he was on a business (?) trip for one day, the BonwitTeller opening and Chuck Riley dropped in at the office to say hello as I read a long letter from John Remsen—so the New York delegation was heard from as well and happy.

What could be a more suitable address for Line Wilson, who now lives at Apt. 3, 105 Dartmouth Road, San Mateo, California. We hope to hear soon if Jane is coming to Smith this fall or where she is going to be.

Dr. Francis S. Harris, Moose Harris to you, has left Cambridge to retire to Sweethill Road, Plaistow, N. H.

Harry French returned to Hanover on Sept. 19, from a brief trip to Lake St. George in Province of Quebec up above the Lawrentide's Park. He returned via the Saguenay having made the entire trip by automobile. He was much impressed with this area and the fine highway that the Canadian Government is building up to it.

Eric Foster returned to Columbia in September, after carrying on as a practical farmer in Candia, N. H., during the summer. On Saturday, September 20, his daughter Dorothy was married to Kenneth Arthur Purrington in the Congregational Church in Candia. They will live this year in the old Page Homestead on High St., which was built in 1818 and which has been in Grace Foster's family for 90 years. Lucky couple!

Carl Shumway spent two weeks in September at the Naval Air Base, Squantum, after a tour of duty of over two months last spring. He spent a week-end recently with Fred Harris at Lake Spofford and found Brig. Knight at his saw mill near Marlboro, N. H., looking very much "in the pink."

Steve Perry's vacation trip this summer was to Nova Scotia. His return to Waltham will allow his attendance we hope at class and Dartmouth functions in town this fall and winter.

Another sure fire return in June are the Dr.Raymond "Dutch" Schultes. If they can come on from Spokane, Wash., there is no excuse for those in New England to miss out on the week-end. The Schultes had a wonderful summer vacation trip to Alaska this year but found "too many mosquitoes, huskys and sand."

Forty-seven years ago, Cap Avery climbed Sunapee Mountain near Lake Sunapee, N. H., and this summer did it again on one of those 90-something days. He and Major, his setter, walk often in the fields to watch the sun go down behind clouds back of Cayuga and find life good.

Johnny Linscott goes to Colby College in Maine this fall, having been accepted by both Colby and Stanford in California. Mose Linscott hopes he'll be transferring to Dartmouth in a year or so.
