1947
With Alumni Fund time blowing around the corner, you may be interested to know that the Class of 1947 treasury enjoys a favorable balance of $471.34 which sum should be sufficient to carry the expense of class business through the period to our reunion in 1951. This sum might not be sufficient, however, to carry the class through a financially unsuccessful first-reunion, but we do not expect to face such short-comings in our reunion plans. It is important to the class that those who have not yet forwarded their dues for this period do so promptly, so the Class Treasurer and the reunion committee, soon to be appointed, may conveniently make their plans.
