1903

CLASS REUNION JUNE 17, 18 AND 19 AT HANOVER

The Boston Alumni Dinner of February 9 filled to the limit the accommodations of the Statler and a happy time was experienced by all. The 1903 attendance was certainly far from the remarkable, but the "regulars" clinging to their record showed Vic Cutter,Chubby Edwards, Orvil Smith, Pip Howard and your secretary. Due to illness Nat Batchelder missed for the first time in many years and several other regulars were AWOL. On February 10 Miss Thelma Cutter, daughter of Victor and Florence Cutter, was married to Lt.-Col. Harold W. Leuenberger USAAF, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Leuenberger of Colorado Springs, Colo. After their wedding trip they will live in Washington, D. C. where Col. Leuenberger is to have top position in the "Air Lift" project current in Europe.

Henry Pierpont of Omaha, Neb. wrote enthusiastically of a meeting of Class Agents in Chicago last spring which he attended at the invitation of Mort French. His commendation of President Dickey's talk was pleasing as well as interesting coming from a man of large business experience. Harry retired from the Standard Oil Cos. of Nebraska some three years ago and is enjoying his leisure time by increased activities.

It is not too frequent an occasion when I receive any personal news from Harry Hess, but here is a by-pass through Bergie. "Speaking of Harry, I went to Sugar Hill to see him while he was on his 21st annual vacation there this summer. He was playing a round of golf when I got there and is still as grave as an elder statesman, as straight as one of our better telephone poles, as conservative as Hoover and as delightful as ever." There you have a painting with words of our class treasurer. But to continue: "Harry always makes me feel like a naughty boy who is about to be invited to the wood-shed; but I have a picture of him at home making the speech from the Old Pine and while I have long since forgotten what he said, I feel sure we would all have been much better citizens if we had given heed to what he probably told us." As class treasurer Harry is a model. His reports are clear and concise and always show a surplus. What more can we ask? We salute you, Harry.

Forrest J. Hall is still Head of Mechanic Arts in the Keene N. H. High School where he has been teaching for 26 years. He has three grandsons in the school, the youngsters who always came to Vic Cutter's picnics and are well funded in Dartmouth lore. Stanton Proper after three years in the Navy has been taking a post-graduate course and enters the Keene Teachers College in September, Richard is a senior and David a sophomore. Forrie will be with us in June at Reunion.

Chauncey Colton, Judge of the Municipal Court in Duluth, Minn., is still working hard. His son Chauncey H. (Dart. '35) is with the Continental Can Company in St. Louis in the industrial engineering department. The Judge wants to be remembered to all his classmates and is hoping to be with us in June.

The Reunion Committee consisting of PipHoward, Chairman, Dick Brown, Bucky Lewers, and Clarie Howes are working to make this reunion the best ever. They admit it will be a hard task—but look'em over.
