The sympathy of the entire Class goes to Pineo Jackson in the loss of his younger son,, Ralph, affectionately known as "Peanuts" to all Tenners. On June 26, while riding a motorcycle near his home, he was hit by an automobile and critically injured, dying a few hours later in the hospital. The driver of the car was held on an auto manslaughter charge without bail, Ralph having been blameless in the accident.

Always a favorite with the Class, and particularly at the 1940 Reunion when he was 13 years old, our young friend "Peanuts" will be missed—but as Clarke Tobin wrote with news of the accident, it is well for Pineo and all other fathers who have suffered similar losses to remember what Calvin Coolidge wrote to E. K. Hall "To your boy and my boy who, by the Grace of God, are boys throughout Eternity."

Mac Kendall is another Tenner to receive 1910's congratulations, having been promoted recently from assistant to the vice-president in charge of operations to General Manager of the very sizable Chicago & Northwestern Railway Co.—it's a long way from starting with the road in 1910 as a telegrapher—but Mac, as his college friends well knew, had what it took.

Bob Woodcock's address is Northwestern Apts., 1725 Orrington Ave., Evanstown, Ill.

Al and Vera Meehan paid us as delightful a visit this summer as we have had in many a moon—they drove from Stuttgart, Arkansas, to tour the east, visit Hanover and Al's old home town, Concord, N. H„ where he was end on the last State Football Champions Concord ever had (he used to play against Nashua's Jack Field,)—both of simple charm, you can visit with them delightfully and endlessly.

Nat Emerson sold his farm and moved to the farm of his father, Frank Emerson, where they can take care of him—Mr. Emerson celebrated recently his eighty-seventh birthday—Nat is a grand fellow who has led a nice life farming in Etna—he is highly respected and honored among his fellow townsmen.

OFFSPRING-Dr. Eddie Wells and family have moved to Rutland, Vt„ where he will complete his residency in radiology, having finished his studies at Rochester, Minn.—Dickand Molly Warren have presented Julius and wife with a granddaughter; Dick received his Master's Degree at Harvard in June and has completed his course work for a Ph.D. there; he will teach English at Rice Institute this year— Win Nay's granddaughter is 15 years old; can any Tenner Grandpop approach that?— Carol Tucker graduated from Madeira School in Virginia last June—Jack Tobin is with Gimbel Brothers, learning the business —His sister Genevieve lives in Princeton, her husband, Chuck Scranton being with Standard Oil—Jack Bates Jr. lives in Odessa, Texas, where he is meeting with success in the oil business—Bill Harlow's son John majored in Chemistry at Harvard, spent a year with Mellon Institute, has since been with Carbide and Carbon Chemical Corp.—Young TommieLeonard of "The Golfing Leonards" won N. H. State Amateur Championship, winning over his brother Dick in the finals; later he lost in the N. E. amateur finals; Father Tom was pulling for Dick to win this year as Tommie had previously won the N. H. finals three times; it's a great family.

HARVARD GAME DINNER will probably be held as usual the Friday night before the Game-jEise Jenness has not notified us about the details as yet—but they'll be coming through soon.

Personally, we have had a very busy summer—Marion and I had a very interesting trip on the old sternwheeler down the Ohio and the Mississippi—it could properly be labeled an experience—and one which certainly gives you a leisurely close-up of a whale of a lot of river, its life and its environs. As the old river boat drew only 6 ft. of water, all you needed was one good tree to tie up anywhere along the banks. Louisville, Paducah (while inspecting that town, our thoughts turned to Don,Russ Palmer and their brothers who came to Dartmouth), Cairo, Memphis, Vicksburg, Natchez, Baton Rouge, New Orleans (and all their names imply) were visited, plus some smaller stops.—Small but clean rooms, good food, passenger list of your own quiet kind of folks, 20 days on the boat, plus what time you want to get to Cincinnati and back, make it a doggone good trip for a lot of people who have reached their three score.

Our Class program for the coming year includes an issue or two of "Tenner Topics" if you fellows send me enough news about yourselves to maintain the MACAZINE space and have an extra supply for "Topics"—The Class seems to be doing rather well—you all know what a good job Andy Scarlett did with the Alumni Fund—lt's Fletch Burton's inning right now, collecting Class dues—he is one of the College's outstanding Class Treasurerspays all bills, creates annual surplus—help him all your conscience will permit—and send us some news items.
