Andrew Marshall retired from general practice on January 1, and from the law firm in Boston with which he has been connected for many years. He is still retaining some trusteeships, and continues to have his office at 49 Federal Street.
Ned Warren has been laid up in Dick's House at Hanover with a severe attack of bronchial pneumonia, but at last account the X-ray showed that the spot on his lung had gone.

Bob and Anna Leavens recently invited a group of Dartmouth men and their wives to their home in Berkeley for a sharing of memories of Dr. Tucker. Among them we note a son of 1901, Mort Crowell Jr. '29 and his wife.

Tommie Remsen was in an auto accident and suffered a broken chest bone but according to Dr. Raphael he has now recovered. Tom recently sent us some old films taken at the 1921 Reunion, and after having them finished up, we find we did not have similar ones so they are a very welcome addition to our official collection. If any other classmates find some such films or pictures we hope you will send them along.

We copy the following item from the Publishers Weekly of February 19, 1949.
"T. C. Morehouse, vice-president of the Macmillan Cos., left New York this week for San Francisco and the Far East where he will make a survey for the American Book Publishers Council, the Association of American University Presses, as well as for Macmillan. The purpose of Mr. Morehouse's trip, in addition to business for the Macmillan Company, is to investigate the copyright status of American books in the Philippine Republic and determine the extent to which pirated American titles are being sold there, survey the copyright situation in Shanghai which is where most of the pirated books are being manufactured, and attempt to find some method by which more American Dooks can be made available to the public in Japan. In respect to this latter point, Mr. Morehouse expects to have an interview with General Douglas Mac Arthur. "After leaving New York, Mr. Morehouse will spend three weeks in San Francisco, sailing on March 9 aboard the President Cleveland for the Philippines. He will spend from March 28 until early May in Manilla and—depending upon the political situation in China—will subsequently fly to Hong Kong and Shanghai, spending a week in each city. Otherwise he will sail on May 18 for Japan, spending a day apiece in Hong Kong and Shanghai en route. Mr. Morehouse will remain in Japan from May 28 until the latter part of June, before returning to the United States. Upon his return he will submit a report on the results of his investigation to the three book trade associations."
