SINCE THE BEST avenue of approach to "Gemuchlichkeit" seems to be through the medium of a full stomach we have been going places by dining weekly at the Milwaukee Schwaben-Hof.

John Trost '33, ex G-man personnel manager of the Briggs & Stratton Company, seemed right at home in the dim cloak and dagger atmosphere of Milwaukee's colorful German restaurant. John Willetts '4O, running a seat cover business with factories in Boston and Milwaukee, has decided to devote more time to the mid-west market. Ev Hokanson '32. connected with one of the city's largest dry cleaning establishments, recently emerged victorious in a labor dispute. Victorious because labor decided to come back to work and let the firm stay in business. Skip French '38 is a banker, and his wife is glad of that because he has enough bank holidays to help a lot with the family wash. Jack Puelicher '43 is a bankerwasher, too. Skip's brother Bill French is an insurance man working in the home office of the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company. Our peripatetic Bill Minehan '31, past president of the alumni club, is an executive assistant with the same company. Genial DonGates '42 and school board mentor Jack Ryan 'll are also in the insurance business.

Bill Hatch '24 is superintendent of the Hansen Glove Cos. and is in South America at present, buying leather, we presume. RodgerTrump '3B, Cliff Randall '27, and S. Stroud are but a few of our members who are attorneys. Bob Bosworth '37 is an executive in the Will R,oss Company, a hospital supply manufacturer. More commercial plugs later.

Mr. E. F. Schmidt, father of Fred Schmidt, an undergraduate, and president of a well known local printing firm bearing his name, has generously printed a book written by Herb West '22 titled H. Hudson's Readings. Mr. Schmidt has offered this book to any members of the local alumni group who asks your secretary for a copy.

MONDAY NOON LUNCHEON NOW AT THE SCHWABEN-HOF MILWAUKEE
