Memorial Fund Chairman, JULIUS A. RIPPEL 744 Broad St., Newark, N. J.

Augustine Ryan has been appointed manager of the campus store of the University of Massachusetts. He had been general manager of the post exchange at Westover Field, and prior to that had managed post exchanges at Fort Devens, Fort Banks, and the Murphy General Hospital. During W. W. II he was a captain in the post exchange service.

We learn that Bill Wallace's oldest son Bill was coming out of the army and going back to Dartmouth as a Junior. His younger brother Jim is a senior at Loomis school, an sister Sue will be back at Smith in the sophomore class. Bill senior, in case youhaven't checked lately, is alleged to be acandidate for high scorer in the Most DoubleChins competition of the Association ofAmerican Insurance Companies. He givesbourbon and water and Idaho baked potatoes a good deal of the credit for his development along these lines.

A member of our Class, a man wnosetaste for apple jack has prompted him tomaintain contacts with reliable sources ofsupply of this elixer, has reported to thiscorrespondent that Don Wheeler, who usedto purvey this beverage back in our day atDartmouth, is still extant. Now 87, Mr.Wheeler is still spry and chipper and stillperforms the daily chores on his farm nearNorwich.

An item in "The Lyons Den" column in the Boston Herald caught the eye of one of our down-east '23 newshawks, who sent it along. The item reads: "Dr. Stanley Ungar, decorated by the Air Force in the last war, rejoining. He's a colonel." Max Wild, Watertown, N. Y., has been on crutches for more than a year, is reported to be getting along OK again. An accident of some kind was the cause of his difficulty.Max and Roy Brown staged a reunion thislast summer.

Win Travell left for Korea last April, toserve as assistant comptroller of the Marshall Plan. Win was to be joined there byhis wife Mildred and their two children. Hegraduated from Dartmouth cum laude, andgraduated from New York University LawSchool in 1935. He was in business in NorthAfrica, and served as supervisor of internalrevenue of the Republic of Liberia for threeyears. After his return from Africa he practiced law in Paterson, N. J., with the firmof Smith and Evans.

Howard Emerson is professor and head ofthe department of industrial engineering, theUniversity of Tennessee, Knoxville. He hasbeen busy the last few years developing anindustrial engineering curriculum and working out cooperative arrangements with theU. of Tennessee College of Business Administration. After Robert College and M.1.T.,Howard was with Dupont and with T.V.A.for 13 years.

Sam Weed is another Knoxville resident. He and Howard helped start the Great Smoky Ski Club, the leading ski club in the country south of the M-D line. Skiing here is one mile above sea level at Indian Gap in the Smokies, where the vegetation and weather approximate conditions in southern Canada. Three mountains near this gap are all higher than Mt. Washington. Sam's son Charles is now at Dartmouth.

Our man who covers the haut monde for us in New York has reported that "Mrs.Julius Rippel and her two attractive daughters were seen at dinner at the Hotel Brevoort."

Joe Schiffenhaus, warm friend of Dartmouth and active '23er around New York, purveyor of penthouse brews to numerous thirsty comrades, hired a yawl last summer and breezed about the Nantucket area with sons Anton and Franklin. We judge from reports which have reached us that it's a good thing the Black Witch had an iron hull.

Wade Kepner and your correspondent are both fliers, which is why we happen to have this news about Wade. He says: "I fly a Bonanza, although I didn't learn to fly until I had covered 200,000 miles as Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks. Have logged about 700 hours since. I also have a twin Beech and am trying to inaugurate an air ambulance service covering the entire country. Setting this down here reminds us to remind Wade that he has promised us a picture of himself and/or the Kepner family.

Hanover is certainly a magnet for '23. Our Hanover Inn informant tells us that 19 '23ers, without wives and families, visited there in the past several months. These men were Ray Barker, Sherm Clough, Frank Callan, Ted Caswell, Duffy, Frank Donovan, Eaton, Ralph Emerson, George Ferguson, The Irishman, Carl Gray, Bill Gates, Clary Goss, Art Little, Walt Maroney, Karl Stadlinger, Jack Taylor, Charley Zimmerman and Ken Way.

Husbands and wives who have visited Hanover since our society reporter last covered that phase of '23 lite, are the following: the Aschenbachs, the Dotens (all the way from Rio de Janeiro), the Glen Elliotts, the Ted Gavers, the Dwight Haighs, the George Masons and kids, the Paul McKowns, the Perkins, the Lew Putnams, the Charley Rices, the Leon Sargeants, the Shapleighs, the Ed Tay lors, the Weeds, Class Agent Lee Young and wife Honey and the John Zimmermans.

Phil Jellison, otherwise known as Tubby, lives with wife Fran and daughters Barbara and Jane, 20 and 18, at 45 Thompson St., Glen Cove, N. Y. Phil was with the telephone company in Boston for a year after graduation, and switched to the Borden Company. He's the office manager of their dry milk and export division, officing at 350 Madison Ave., N. Y. When opportunity affords, he loves to race sail boats.

Matt Jones is manager and treasurer of The George C. Keiser Foundation, Washington, D. C., a charitable foundation. Matt taught sociology at Dartmouth, put in a number of years with the N. Y. Telephone Company, was advisor on communications at Pusan, Korea, (with U. S. Military Government authorities), and was deputy director of finance and administration with AMAG in Athens, Greece, prior to making his present connection about a year ago. He's married and has one daughter, Mary Elizabeth, age 20.

Payson (Pay) Jones lives at Waquoit, Mass. He was married in 1921 and has two sons, 26 and 28. He has been identified with the Phillips Ribbon and Carbon Co. of Boston, owned and operated Universal Ribbon and Carbon Co. in the same town, and was a supervisor for Bethlehem Steel. For 4 years he has been superintendent of a 2500-acre beach property of Cape Cod, which includes an Inn and 50 summer cottages. He writes that he enjoys a peace of mind he never knew in city work. "I'm the happiest guy in the world," he says, and continues: "I talk with a number of men who spend a short two-weeks vacation here at our hotel, and the rest of the year they are batting their brains out trying to make a lot of moneyand for what?.... if you and any of your friends ever plan to visit the Cape let me know and I \t;ill do everything possible to help them Frank Mackedon and PemWhitcofnb spend a lot of time on the Cape."

William F. (Diamond Bill) Juergens is still a bachelor, still a resident of 14 West Elm St., Chicago, and still the head man of William F. Juergens and Cos., at 31 N. State St., retail jewelers. Bill spent only two years at Dartmouth, but there are few members of the Dartmouth community who give more time and energy to Dartmouth affairs. He has been a mainstay of the Chicago Alumni Association for many years, and has worked hard and successfully at '23 doings ■ever since he left Dartmouth.

Our files include a request that news of Ocky Hecht be furnished in this column sometime. Will Ocky or somebody else please help us out? And the same goes for Joe Talbot and Donald King, about whom we need information.

We are sorry to have to report to the class the death of Bill Keavney at Stamford, Conn., on September 6. Formal note of his passing appears in this month's In Memoriam section.
