From an anonymous source I recently received what I believe will be of considerable interest to the Class, a list of '14ers from Who's Who. Here they are: Carl EdwardBuck, health official, lecturer on Public Health; Ellsworth Brewer Buck, business executive, ex-Congressman, member of Committee on Education and Labor which wrote Taft-Hartley Law, chairman, Code Authority for Chewing Gum Industry; Arthur HerbertVeering, Rear Admiral U.S. Navy, Asst. Chief for personnel and professional operation Bureau Medicine and Surgery, Navy Department: Roscoe Plimpton DeWitt, architect: Sanford Griffith, U. of Chicago and Ecole des Science Politique, Paris, Army liaison officer, reporter in Europe, lecturer on Economics, now vice-president, Merriman Bannister Co., owner-manager Holiday Lodge, Northport, L.1.; Howell Knight Hallett, cotton textile executive, member War Labor Relations Board Panel; John Alford Hanna, lawyer, professor at Columbia, visiting professor, author; Sigurd S. Larmon, advertising, president, Young & Rubicam; James Parker Margeson, vice-president, International Minerals & Chemical Corp.; Walter Andrew Netsch, vicepresident, Armour; Richard Edward Pritchard, president, The Stanley Works, New Britain, Conn.; Thorndike Saville, Dean of Engineering, NYU, president, American Society Chemical Engineers Met.

Assn., author; George Young Jr., president & director of Passaic National Bank & Trust, director, N. J. Manufacturers Ins. Cos. Just one of the reasons for the expression "The Famous Class."
This month seems to have more than our share of bad news. Bill Breslin suffered a severe heart attack a number of weeks ago, but latest reports have it that he is getting to the office for two or three hours each day. We hope by this time, Bill, that things have straightened out and that you are in much better health. Carl Wicker has been laid up since last December with arthritis, confined his home and unable to walk, but is now improving and is getting to the office. I can well sympathize with Carl, as it was 13 years ago that I had my session with the same thing. What Carl needs is one of those special hollow canes that the Secretary uses at the Snobird reunions. Anyway we are glad to know he is better.
The sympathy of the Class goes to Hank andMrs. Llewellyn in the recent loss of their son Capt. Frank A. Llewellyn, co-pilot of a DC-?, which crashed September 4 near Utica, N. Y.
Doug MacCartee writes that he is getting along in a humdrum existence. "Nothing interesting to anyone ever happens to a school teacher Except local happenings." We doubt that, Doug, as we know too many school teachers to be fooled with that chestnut.
Congratulations are in order for HerbAustin, who was married September 2 in the Little Church Around the Corner to Mrs. Dorothy Evans. Herb says, "You will see us around this winter and in particular we will be in Hanover for the Sno-bird party. Daughter Judy is Director of the Student Christian Association at the University of Chicago. Bob and June moved into their new house in Welles'ey last Easter and presented me with a second female grandchild on the last day of July." Bob is sales manager of the Hotel Bradford, Boston.
Dick Pritchard vacated his position as president of The Stanley Works last March to become Chairman of the Board. Dick has been with the company since 1914 president since 1941.
From the September 29 Bulletin we learn that the soccer team has already suffered one major loss when Bob Hopkins, son of our own Bob Hopkins, broke a small bone in his foot the past week. Bob was first-string center and may well be out for the balance of the season.
George Webster had a daughter graduate from Tulane last spring Cap Lawrences daughter was married in June... jim Hawley's daughter graduated from Ohio Wesleyan. ....Frannie Pooler's boy graduated from Dartmouth in June.... and Jack Bellinger had an offspring married in June but we do not know which one or the sex. All these items were supposed to be deep dark secrets to the Secretary! Nary a word from any of them so we can't give you more details.
Alec Tuck should be back in the States by this time and we may have more news from him later Jim Wulpi is back after two years in India. He is now manager of New York and Nothern Pennsylvania for T.W.A
Spence Howell has been confined for a long time in a V.A. Hospital with a serious disease which the doctors have told him can b easily cured. His address is Ward 58, Kennedy V.A. Hospital, Memphis, Tenn.
Most of you will remember that Jesse Hubel suffered a coronary occlusion three years ago. and a recent letter reports that he is showing steady improvement. "While I am at the office regularly, my physician still rules out conventions, reunions, etc. as perhaps a little too strenuous for the old man. Recovery from one of those things is damnably slow, never complete and one has to grin and take it. However, I am continually improving although I really do find that 'the stairs are steeper'can also swear that Dutch Burnham's plate glass mirrors are just common fraud!or are they?"
