IN THE ROLE OF HANOVER CITIZEN, President Dickey turned out along with fifty other men on Sunday morning, January 5, to help clear Main Street of the deep snow banks which the plows had created after the two-foot snowfall of the week before. Dave Heald '42, Hanover Inn manager and head of the Chamber of Commerce, had the idea for this "snow shoveling bee" which caught the fancy of the New England press.
