1922

Andrew Heath Jr. continues to acquire increasing fame in the musical world. A senior at Harvard, where he is majoring in music, his recent appearance in a recital before the Musical Guild of Boston won for him a scholarship awarded annually by that organization. Andy Jr.» spent last summer abroad, working at the famed Conservatory in Fontainebleau. For the second time, he was invited to play the Grieg Concerto with the New Hampshire Symphony Orchestra in December.

J. Lawrence Robinson, vice president of Jabez Burns, Inc., New York engineers and manufacturers of food processing equipment, was a visiting lecturer at Tuck School in November. Lawrence had renewed old acquaintances and made new acquaintances in Hanover during a ten-months stretch at the Mary Hitchcock Hospital last year.

At least one of our boys made Hanover a visit in December, for the Hanover Inn registered Clark Bristol in on the third.

The Director of Admissions becomes more impressed each year with the value of the function performed by alumni committees in the interviewing of candidates for admission to Dartmouth. Our class is represented in this branch of the selective process whereby, in effect, the Director interviews by proxy every applicant. Currently, the following from our ranks are serving as committee chairmen: Chick Busher, Chuck Canfield,Haskell Cohn, A:ncly Marshall, Mac McNamara, Buck Perry, Walt Sands, Sterry Waterman, Ben Wilson and your secretary. There are others serving actively on committees but. unfortunately, recognition can not be given them here for I do not have a list of their names.

The November number of Kie-Ways, a monthly news bulletin issued by Peter Kiewit Sons' Cos., contractors since 1884, fell into my hands. From its contents you learn that Pete's company is a real factor in construction throughout the western part of the country. In his editorial in this particular number, Pete gives some sound and sage advice to the young men starting out upon their careers in his organization.

For many years Dave Camp and his wife, the former Mary-Jeane Eider, have resided among our good neighbors to the north. Dave is Division Traffic Superintendent for Bell Telephone Co. of Canada. Their children are receiving their educations at McGill University where Marylin is a senior and Thomas is a sophomore.

A few weeks ago I was pleasantly surprised by a telephone call from Ted Robie during a brief visit he made Boston. He reports a fine recovery from his siege at the Lahey Clinic a year or so ago. As an extra-curricular activity, Ted has served during the past year as chairman of a committee at Orange Memorial Hospital charged with the study of political medicine. This has led to many appearances before various groups and associations upon which occasions Ted has spoken vigorously in opposition to the proposed Compulsory Health Insurance Bill.

I was very much pleased to receive a letter last summer from Hal Tayntor. He is living in New Britain. Conn., is engaged in estate planning with Connecticut General Life Insurance Company and is vice president of the local Dartmouth alumni association. There are two daughters, 8 and 10 years of age, and a son, aged 16. The son, Charles Enos, a mere 6' n/2" in height and 185 pounds in weight, is a senior at The Gunnery School, Washington, Conn., where he has made letters in football, hockey and crew and is captain-elect of crew. Hal acknowledges an urge to return to Hanover for a visit. Here is hoping he will succumb to that urge when time for our next reunion rolls around.

Will you look through your check stubs to see if you may have overlooked sending Carroll a check for current dues? Naturally, if there has been an oversight you will want to correct it.

I hope you folks have included among your New Year's resolutions (and I mean among those you really plan to keep) the one that says you will keep your secretary supplied with news items at all times.

PRACTICALLY A PSI U CONVENTION: The 1922 delegation, gathered at a reunion picnic, produced this fraternal pose. Beginning on the top step and proceeding gravity-wise, the group (I to r) includes Roy Ball, Gene Hotchkiss, Les Wagner, Ted Davidson, Bill Morrell, Bill Mann, Fran Leland and Andy Marshall.
