1908

Class Agent, ARTHUR L. LEWIS

125 Walnut St., Watertown 72, Mass.

Mort Hull, the Bard and Cannoneer of Holyoke, and his guitar furnished the best music at the New York dinner according to our reporter. Mort sang the old song from "If I Were Dean" entitled "Father John McGee" and he sang it well. Besides Mort, the men who attended the dinner were GordonBlanchard, Fred Munkelt, Fred Schilling,Mike Stearns, Larry Symmes and John Thompson.

Through some unexplainable happening, Mort's name was omitted from the new class directory. The information about Mort should appear as follows:

Morton Hull—president, Henry G. Sears Company, Wholesale Groceries, 80 Race Street, Holyoke, Mass.; Home 1374 Northampton Street, Holyoke.

Jack Corcoran, Howard Cowee, Parson BillEnglish, Percy Gleason, Gene Jordan, Gen.Knox, Gardner Marion, Pete McCarty, ArtLewis, Queech Safford, George Squier, HenryStone and Charlie Walker attended the annual dinner of the Dartmouth Club of Baaston on February 9, according to two thoughtful reporters, who agreed on the facts as to who attended. Tat Badger had planned to come and had purchased a ticket, but at the last minute was unable to make it.

Percy Gleason has acquired a summer home at Eastham on Cape Cod. Dr. Fiske bought a place at Falmouth some time ago. It appears that the Doctor advises the men in the class now going to the Cape that he began going there regularly shortly after 1620, or words to that effect.

Art Lewis and family left on March 1 to go to Vero Beach to enjoy the hospitality of one of- the inns operated by Grandfather Larry Treadway of Williamstown, and points North, East and South, and perhaps West.

Edward Bartlett's job took him from Wilmington to a tour of the universities of New York State last December. At last report, he had his company about talked into sending him on a trip to southern universities about the time the duck boards were being put out in Wilmington.

The 1908 delegation at Clearwater, Fla., has consisted of the Howard Hiltons, who, according to reports, are now settled in a charming house at 557 Bayview Drive, Belleair Estates, Hazel McLane Clark, who has been spending the winter at the Clearwater Beach Hotel, and Harry Harriman. Hazel plans to come North to New Canaan about the Ist of April to be there for some time. Harry thinks we should have an informal reunion at Hanover in June as 1907 did last year. Others have made the same suggestion.

Art Blood reports that he had definitely planned to attend the reunion, but had to stayhome to straighten out a serious business matter.

Syd Ruggles is back at Goose Bay, Labrador.On his return there, he was transferred to theAir Force from the U. S. Engineers and is nowAirport Engineer in the Air Installation Office, and his mailing address is: Air Installation Office, A.P.O. No. 677, c/o P.M., NewYork, N. Y. Syd will be at his new station foranother year at least, perhaps two, with aprobable month's leave next winter. He waitedat Westover Field near Holyoke for nearly twoweeks before catching a plane. While therehe took a trip to Springfield and called onRuxton and Tom Morrissey. He also wentover to Holyoke and saw Mort Hull and McElwain.
