Meade as president of the San Diego Alumni Asociation, Henry T. Powers as president of the New Britain Dartmouth Club, Russell G. Putney as secretary of the Cheshire County (N. H.)

Accompanied by the picture of a very attractive girl, notice of the wedding of Jeane Alice Dewey and John Henry Swan on October 15 appeared in an issue of the Darien (Conn.) Review. Virginia Lee Dewey attended her sister as maid of honor and Robert M. Dewey Jr. served as one of the ushers. The bride was graduated from the Thomas School in Rowayton and plans to complete her studies at Smith College where she is presently a senior. The groom is a graduate of the University of Virginia and spent last year in Europe studying at the University of Geneva. As you have long since surmised, the bride is the daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Robert Manson Dewey.
Attracted by football games, no doubt, these fortunate folks were October visitors at the Hanover Inn: Robert Armstrong (Mr. & Mrs.), Maplewood, N.J., Herman L. Carlisle (Mr. & Mrs.), Longmeadow, Mass., SumnerD. Kilmarx, Bronxville, N. Y., Richard Litchfield (Mrs. & Mrs.), Wellesley, Mass., SterryWaterman, St. Johnsbury, Vt., Joseph B.Woods (Mr. & Mrs.), Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
At "Dartmouth Night in New York" on October 7, we were represented by LarryHealy, Bill Morrell, Ralph Reid and TedRobie. It seems as though there should have been more, but if there were others Bill Morrell failed to run across them.
Two sons of '2s are prominent on the cross-country team. Ken Anderson and Sam Daniell get home among the leaders of the pack in that grueling sport. Incidentally, it was gratifying to read recently that the Justin H. Smith scholarship has been awarded to Ken.
Recently, the name Fancher has been prominent in soccer, the game that has gained considerable prestige in the field of sports at Hanover. Lee Fancher closed his collegiate soccer career last year as captain of the team. John Fancher was one of the mainstays of last year's unbeaten and almost unscored upon freshman team. He is a starter on the current varsity team. Both, of course, are sons of our John H. Fancher.
Some time ago, Shaw Livermore left Dun & Bradstreet to join ECA in Paris. He made a trip back to the States in June on the occasion of the graduation of his daughter.
October 11 was the 25th wedding anniversary for Nick and Louise Carter. In celebration of this happy occasion, friends galore congregated that evening at the Carter homestead for cocktails, dinner and an evening of gaiety. It was a particularly happy occasion for me because I had the honor to be best man at the wedding. Odie Lee and I went early and stayed late as did also Steveand Reine Tredennick. Frequently during the evening people were heard to remark that Louise looked just like a bride, and she did, but, although I kept my ear alerted, I heard no remarks that would indicate that Nick was fooling anybody.
The Dartmouth-Harvard game was the occasion for many festivities in Boston, some with a decided '22 flavor. For the night before the game Carter Hoyt arranged a dinner at the University Club where we had a table in a room with several other classes. Up to a late hour it looked as though Andy Marshall was a cinch for the distance record but at the last minute, with 1,000 miles behind him, Phil Kimball took it hands down. For the cocktail hour only, we had Bill Gallagher and Ced Porter with, us. Those who stayed for the works were: Phil Threshie, GeorgeStanley, Gray Bates, Haskell Cohn, Len Morrissey, Carter Hoyt, Andy Marshall, CarrollDwight, Bill Mann, Dick Litchfield, FranLeland, Phil Kimball, Dick Stetson, NickCarter and your correspondent.
After the game, Carter and Allie Hoyt entertained with cocktails, dinner and an evening of music and chatter at their home. It was fun and enjoyed no end by Dick andDorothy Stetson, Carroll and Nan Dwight,Bill and Betty Mann, Bob and Alma Hight,Andy Marshall, Odie Lee and me
On Sunday afternoon Steve and ReineTredennick entertained a host of friends at their Marblehead home with cocktails, dinner and a mus'icale. There were so many there I sort of lost count, but besides Boband Alma Hight, Dick and Mary Louise Willis, Nick and Louise Carter, Bud and Barbara Winkler, Ray and Mary Louise Rambach, Odie Lee and your reporter, there were people named Hicks and Ruggles and Perry and Lord and Hart and Childs, giving the party a decided Dartmouth tinge. The Barbary Coast orchestra came to life for us in the persons of Willis, Hight, Lord, Perry and Childs. If there is a piece of music popular in the 1920s that was not played it is simply because no one there thought of it. It was a unique and delightful affair fraught with nostalgic memories.
To every one of you, I say sincerely, "Merry Christmas! Happy, Prosperous New Year!"
