Morris Smith writes from his hospital headquarters on Staten Island, N. Y., "I am enjoying my job here at Halloran very much. I am happy to be living in what is really country, although technically New York City, and even better it is very pleasant to have opportunity to keep my hand in professionally and to serve in a teacher-like relation to a group of eager young doctors."
One of our classmates, who prefers to be anonymous, wishes our class could make a better showing in the matter of memorial gifts to the College. He reports a very grateful and gratifying letter of appreciation from the sister of a deceased classmate in whose name he had made a modest memorial contribution to the Alumni Fund.
The foregoing note reminds the Secretary that the 1949 Alumni Fund campaign is now in progress. Before this MAGAZINE reaches you, "he able Alumni Fund Agent Bill Cummings wijl undoubtedly have invited your subscription and most of you will have already forwarded your check to him. If you have overlooked this important item, Bill will certainly appreciate your doing it now.
The Boston 'O7 monthly luncheon is still a fixture. It is held at the Down Town Club on the last Wednesday of each month. Attendants at the May 25 luncheon were; John Tarbell,j)r Bob Cochrane, Bishop Niles, CharlieWoodworth, and Dick Lane.
Sally Woodworth, daughter of Charles and Sarah, has recently resigned her position in the Baker Library in anticipation of her marriage on or about June 11. Her fiance is a cousin of "Gig" Gallagher 'O6.
George and Mrs. Liscomb have visited Hanover recently. Those who met Mrs. Liscomb report that she is a most congenial addition to the 'O7 group. George has a business territory extending across Southern Vermont and New Hampshire and he and Mrs. Liscomb are making their home in Charleston, N. H.
The following quotations from the SeattleTimes establish beyond question that SamBarnes was, as we know, a rare individual. "Samuel L. Barnes, who recently passed away, had the rare quality of shedding sunshine and cheer in every human contact. Through all the years, I never met him without feeling an uplift of the spirit and a better appreciation of the priceless value of friendships."
Inquiries about an off-year 'O7 reunion are coming in. There will be an informal unorganized 'O7 reunion. You will receive a bulletin advising you how to reserve a dormitory room, if you intend to return. If '49 is like '4B, there is certain to be a small group of 'O7 reunion enthusiasts in Hanover for one, two or three days. There will be no organized program but, as always, an enjoyable opportunity to renew friendships. Write a note to your Secretary, if you plan to be there.
