1922
Andy Heath surely must have been bursting with pride on the afternoon of February 20 when Andrew Jr. performed as pianist and soloist for the New Hampshire Symphony orchestra. I quote from the review in the Concord (N. H.) Monitor: "It was in a sense that all of us were attending as a musical party with interest to hear the latest of our Andrew Heath Jr., as he played the Grieg Concerto." Incidentally, I have Dick Wood to thank for this news item.
Meager bits of information gleaned here and there: Ralph Spotts is a research engineer. Harry Aronson is a shoe manufacturer. Dewey Knott is an aerial tramway engineer. DonSpaulding is special representative for the Jamestown Mutual Insurance Company.
Clayt Wilkins is doing something at which nearly every one of us would like to try his hand. He is a locomotive engineer for the Boston & Albany Railroad.
Ralph McCaskey is a life insurance broker.
Can somebody please give the address of Phil Grant? The one on the records, an office building in Shreveport, La., is not correct. I happened to be in Shreveport last summer, went to that building and found only the faint trace of Phil's name on an office door. The building manager had no forwarding address for him.
After Dartmouth, King Fauver earned his degree at Harvard Law School and entered practice at Elyria, Ohio, in the family firm of Fauver & Fauver. His next important venture was in matrimony with Annie Lee Scribner at Pittsburgh in 1927. In orderly succession, four children arrived in the Fauver household. John King, born in 1928, is at Dartmouth in the class of '5O. Scribner Lee, born in 1931, is a senior at Deerfield Academy, presumably headed for Dartmouth in September. Mary Lee, born in 1934, is a sophomore at Walnut Hill School. Benjamin, almost ten, is in the fourth grade and probably looking to the day when he will come east too. King writes that he will see me at the Thirtieth, thus qualifying as the first to sign up for the next reunion.
I dislike to appear to harp unduly on this subject, but the publishing of a 25th Year Book seems so desirable that I am unable to refrain from calling it again to the attention of those who have failed to remit the subscription price of ten dollars to TreasurerDwight. I am convinced that the book will come out as we are now able to see the light 0 day financially, for it is inconceivable that the few additional subscriptions needed will not be forthcoming. Send a check now. Who knows but that your $10 may be the very one that sends the book to press?
During February and March, the Hanover Inn extended its hospitality to Walt Sands,AI and Haute Crampton, Killy Kilmar, Duke and Fran Vosßurgh. I hope they were conducted through the new kitchen, for it is something to behold.
Dr. Edwin H. Colpitts, retired Vice President of the Bell Telephone Laboratories, passed away March 6. A scientist whose pioneering led to the development of practical systems of long-distance wire and radio communications, he acquired twenty-four patents, among which is the vacuum tube oscillator circuit known as the Colpitts oscillator. Don, you have lost a distinguished dad. Please accept our sympathy.
This is to remind you that Andy Marshall is ready and willing to loan his films of the 25th Reunion to any group wishing to run them. The films have had considerable circulation and have been very well received.
John Weave is General Sales Manager of the Cambridge Rubber Company. He and his bride, who was Miss Ruth L. Mason until July 21, 1926, reside in Kenilworth, Ill. John S. Jr., aged 21, is a junior at Northwestern University where he is preparing for medicine. Mason, aged 19, is at Dartmouth in the class of '51. Carolyn, aged 17, a senior at New Trier, is headed for Lasell Junior College, Newton, Mass. The Weare family was badly split on the occasion of the basketball game between Dartmouth and Northwestern on January 1. It can be reported with some confidence that the outcome was pleasing to John Sr. and Mason at any rate.

The cause is worthy; the need is great. Lend your generous support to Stan Miner and his boys. It goes without saying that this year the class will equal or improve upon the splendid position it attained in the 1948 Alumni Fund campaign. A real opportunity for improvement is in the field of participation. We can climb high in that rating if you and you and you will come in with your contributions, large and small. Again I point out that early action on your part will lessen the load on our agent and his helpers.
