At the last meeting of the Executive Committee, new officers were chosen for the coming year. John Cogswell '3l is our new President and Jack Guenther '4l, former Big Green grid-great from the Cataract City, is the new Veep. Lew Harriman Jr. '38 and JackCowan '40 were re-elected Treasurer and Secretary respectively. Five new members were elected to the Executive Committee replacing the following retiring members who have done a grand job: Horace Taylor '23, BillDonaldson '37, Ed Marlette '41, Phil Harty '38 and Rog Arnold '44. The new members are: Lorin Goulding Jr. '21, Frank Tindle '28, Horace Miller '34, Bob Common '40 and JackMarlette '46 (to keep it in the family).

Seventy-five alumni, their sons, undergraduates and prospective students gathered at the University Club on December 27 for the annual Christmas luncheon. This was the largest turnout since the inauguration of the event. It was unfortunate that the College film service let us down at the last minute without a warning, but again the A & P crashed through with a piano player to save the day along with Horace Taylor '23 who is always ready with a good story.

Following the luncheon John Cheney '30 and his staff of assistants interviewed applicants for admission.
