We've had several fine get-togethers over the past few months. On May 22, the spring picnic for the men to be admitted to Dartmouth this fall was held at Tom Curtis' farm in Webster Groves. Then on June 25, a family picnic was held on the back lawn of HarryDeckert's home. The following had a most enjoyable time; Mr. and Mrs. Russ Fette, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Logan, Mr. and Mrs. Ernie Grinnell, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Merill, Boyd Rogers and family, Bill Rench and family, Bob Turner and family, Mr. and Mrs. Leigh Turner, Marty Kerwin and family, Bill Chapman and family, Ted Hinson and family, Mr. and Mrs. Len Sommer, Landon Martin, Dick Meyers, Frank Cornwell, Jimmy Jones, Charlie Cashin and Miss Dion Boulicault, Carl Holekamp, Jerry Peterson, Ed Grace, and Mr. and Mrs. Harrison and son Carlos.

Starting the activity for the fall season was a picnic in the form of a send-off for the men returning to school. It was held on Earl Poe's farm on Saturday, September 10.

The first Smoker will be held on October 11, at Howie Mullen's home. There is much more activity planned, but it will be reported in a later report.

We'll be seeing you on Thursday at 12:15 in the back room of Gerken's Buffet, 321 Olive Street, St. Louis.
