1922
Summer vacation ends a little earlier for us reporters who have a Labor Day deadline on news for the October issue and here we go opening up on another publication year with the familiar but sincere plea that you be on the lookout for news items for forwarding to your secretary. Please don't be guided by false modesty. Don't labor under the mistaken impression that news of yourself is of no interest to the class in general.
Another Alumni Fund campaign has been completed with signal success. Again we have reason to take real satisfaction in the part played by 1922 and again we are indebted to Stan Miner for his able leadership and to him and his staff for services so faithfully and effectively performed as to keep our class elevated at an enviable spot in the ranking.
After having served as its president, JohnWood recently became chairman of the board of Better Business Bureau of New York City, an indication of the respect in which the president of Brooks Brothers is held by his associates.
A very happy occasion of the past summer was the marriage on July 2 of Suzanne, daughter of Fran and Lucy Leland, to John Samuel LeFeber of Milwaukee. The wedding ceremony was performed in Christ Church in Andover and was followed by a delightful reception at the North Andover Country Club. Suzanne chose her sister Charlotte to be her maid of honor and Fran Jr. served as an usher. The bride attended Abbot Academy and Briarcliff Junior College. John is a student at Brown University.

You will recall that the notes of last June included the announcement of the birth of a son to the Tony Hanlons. I had to go back to the proud father to learn that this boy's name is Terranee.
Frank Hot an has been honored by election to the chairmanship of the Executive Committee of the Bar of the City of New York. All that election to such an office, implies is not known to this layman but he bets it connotes mighty high recognition by the New York City legal fraternity.
Stan and Catherine Miner, aided and abetted by daughters Mary Ann, Catherine and Constance, entertained several members of 1922 at a picnic July 24 at their summer place in Gaysville, Vt. I am sorry not to be able to give a first-hand report of this social event for we wanted to be there but a business trip prevented. However, I have been told it was a most pleasant party. It was attended by Tomand Ruth Byrne, Carrol and Nan Dwight accompanied by son Peter and daughter Mary Gay who in turn was accompanied by Bill White '49 (son of Bill White '19), Andy andHelen Heath, Carter and Allie Hoyt, Oley andElspeth Olsen, Herb West, Dick and MaryLouise Willis.

At the meeting last May of the Massachusetts Bankers Association in Boston HarveyMoses, vice-president of Third National Bank & Trust Company of Springfield (Mass.), presided at the session attended by trust officers for the purpose of exchanging ideas. Probate accounting, fees, preparation of income tax returns for trust beneficiaries were some of the topics tossed in by Harvey for discussion by his confreres.
The class was adequately represented at the meetings of class officers in Hanover last May. Carroll Dwight took in the meetings prescribed for treasurers and Stan Miner was in attendance at those prescribed for agents. As a matter of fact, Stan was a speaker at one of his sessions. Nan Dwight and Catherine Miner were along to enjoy the week end and keep their respective husbands under control. Much to their disappointment and due to faulty scheduling of a business trip by your correspondent, the Bullens were unable to make it.

Happy grandparents are Joe and Betty Perkins.

It is dues time and you already have received notice from Carroll Dwight, our zealous treasurer. If you haven't mailed your check I urge you to do so. The condition of the treasury depends upon dues, the only source of revenue. Let's keep it healthy. Don't forget that the dues include subscription to the DARTMOUTH ALUMNI MAGAZINE which is not just an ordinary alumni magazine but the one recently judged the most distinguished of the year.
