1934

Memorial Fund Chairman, JAMES F. WENDELL 954 Gladstone Ave., S.E., Grand Rapids 6, Mich.

The loyal sons of '34 can now look back on a full season of tottering up those last few steps to that Row BB where the laughing boys of the DC AC seem to delight in seating us, of looking down with assorted horror, delight and alcoholic bemusedness upon the noble efforts of Tuss' Technicians and it all wasn't too bad, was it? Well it could have been much worse—we could have played Army (What did you say, McCarter, wait till next year?).

There are good reports from the Michigan game, though. According to the combined and appreciated correspondence of Jim Wendell,Frank Wardwell and Bill Emerson it was a good game, a fine party and they record a sizeable group of '34 in attendance. From a standing start at a Friday evening cocktail party where, as Frank puts it, "everyone concientiously tried to reduce the distillery inventories to a sound basis," a running account shows cropping up through the weekend, usually adorned with the attractive ladies that our class wisely selects in matrimony, BillEmbry, Jack Fogarty, Sam McCray, DickLoughry, Swede Lindstrom, Kirk Spitler, TedFlemming, Art Moebious, Frank Parmelee,Bob Engelman (that guy gets around—he made Yale, too), Buz Hartman, Bob Wildman,Ed Heffernan, who lives in Ann Arbor, StanSmoyer and Dick Barrett.

Viewing the lesions inflicted by Lehigh we saw Ike Besse, El Fulton, Jack Hinsman,George Kimball, Bill Clough, Al Marks, JeffJackson and an unfortunate classmate and former class agent from New York who picked that game to demonstrate the might of the Big Green to some young fellows to whom he was selling Dartmouth.

Without coining any phrases the Yale game could be called a washout. On account of a late decision and other things, some financial, ye sec and his kids sat with the publicans and the sinners in the "grab it-and-growl" sections. It was a day when you could take your branchwater chasers by osmosis and when any reporter should consider his health, which we did. Outside of the aforementioned Engleman the only other '34 encountered was Chuck Hirschey who shared a water hazard between portals 19-20 for a few minutes.

How many of the brethren had the courage to travel to that ivied stadium in Cambridge to see our boys in action against the gyrations of the bucolic brahmin who are currently and gleefully being called football players by Bill Bingham is a mystery, the "Bahstun" pipeline being a little disorganized, as yet. However, being in the vicinity of the Copley on the Saturday of the Harvard game with a girl who had better be, and was, my wife, we looked in at the main ballroom which was loaded with bright looking youngsters who, somebody said, were from Dartmouth and mostly another place called Bradford, who were all furiously involved in something which the same somebody said was called a "Mexican Hat Dance." In the midst of the furor, we spied one Tiger Jack Dineen, who in his day carved many a dance floor to small pieces, but he was heading wild-eyed toward the exit and tripping over our long gray beard we never got near him. College kids are certainly getting younger every year, but let's face it

20 YEARS AGO Acting Dean of Freshmen C. R. Lingley was reporting that statistics of the Class of 1934 showed an average age of 18.01, with the oldest 26.1 and the youngest 15.9.... of the 664 entering, nine did so because the school was not co-ed (ha!) ... .TheDartmouth was reviewing the unbeaten season of the 1934 freshman football team and the freshman basketball team had been cut to 25 one R. E. Wilmot on returning from Thanksgiving recess got as far as Greenfield Hospital when the car in which he was a passenger skidded and took down 25 feet of fence to the considerable detriment of the fence, the car and R. E. Wilmot.... E. W.Cowie '34 helped carry four kids out of a burning house .... the college was up in arms or maybe we better say taking sides over something called "Companionate Marriage" which Judge Ben D. Lindsey was advocating and" the Diner modestly proclaimed "Our small steaks are surprisingly large—4o cents.'

VITAL STATISTICS

On Sept. 7, 1950, place unknown (to us), Ed Luedke was married to Margaret Canbv Behringer On 11 September, 1950 a sec" ond boy, David Edgar, was born to Lt. Comdr.and Mrs. R. W. Hardt Mac McCloskey has a third child, Deborah Anne, born September 19 .... and a very lucky second boy, Andrew Manuel, was born on August 23 to Jean and Len Harrison—lucky, because he is the son of the ad and sales promotion manager for Topps Chewing Gum (Adv.-mfgrs. of Bazooka Bubble Gum, Hopalong Cassidy candy). Keep that Bazooka stuff out of your mother's lace tablecloths, Andrew, or your old man will be selling pencils.

ODDS AND BODKINS

During the foliage season, the Hanover Inn reports visits from Boots and Jake Jacobson and from L. P. Edson, once familiarly known to his bridge partners as Buzz Out near Flagstaff, Ariz, is a fellow who should have been at the Yale Bowl. Jack Feth, with the USGS, has been busily engaged all year m the search for groundwater Frank Parmelee returned from covering 19 Latin American countries in 42 days only to depart for a ful tour of Europe (Toledo Scales, not groundwater) Another export sales manager, Jack Chollar of Remington Rand admits to three months spent in England and Europe during the summer Bill Craig moans about the Lehigh loss with the GI engineers plaint, "Three months ago I never heard of the Ang-i-neers, today I are one." MartyDwyer, who surely must have already been reported back in NYC backing up that famous infield of Batten, Barton, Durstine and Osborne, has located at 1107 Esplanade, Pelham Manor Bill Emerson also reports having met Charlie Levesque, research supervisor of Rohm and Haas of Philadelphia, at a meeting of the American Chemical Society this fall. These two chemistry Ph.D.'s probably had many long discussions of the correct number of cc's of water to mix with selected bourbons .... and speaking of ingredients, there may be still time for you to make the mixed cocktail party at the Dartmouth Club on December 8. Reserved space under the best tables may be gone, but there's always room for one more.

MEN OF DISTINCTION

Live, the new magazine with a crusade to bring a greater consciousness of avoiding traffic accidents to both motorists and pedestrians, announces that Cameron Day, former United Features Syndicate writer who has held positions on top magazines, including Pic, Tide and Advertising Age, is editor .... from Leonard Lyons, a fellow who writes a little column over in Impellitteritown which gets into even the Worcester papers, we get the information that Alan Hewitt is doing very well with Ethel Merman in the new musical hit, CallMe Madam .... from Marion, Ind. comes note of an address to a local group by Henry J.Peirce, Indianapolis, president of the Indiana State Association of Life Underwriters, career agent of the Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Cos. and lecturer with the life insurance marketing school at Purdue University the Fidelity Mutual Life Insurance Company of Boston after due consideration of the evident facts that the class of 1934 doesn't put just anybody in charge of its hoard of musty old dollar bills, announces the appointment of John E. Gilbert as associate general agent.... and for the balance of our men of distinction this month, you are respectfully referred to the list of some 400-odd which follows.
