1920

We have been abjured by our betters to keep it crisp this month so as to leave ample room for the list of chippers-in to the Alumni Fund pot. May there be more Twenties on the list than ever before, and more power to every one of them!

Grampa Frey now has a granddaughter as well as a grandson. A beautiful and bouncing baby girl was born to Janet (Mrs. Ed) Harte in Kansas City January 23. The Hartes are now about to set themselves up in the newspaper business in the heart of Texas, after an excellent apprenticeship for Ed on the Claremont Eagle and the Kansas City Star.

Jim Frost, Connecticut schoolmaster, is to be thanked for an impressive story clipped from the Hartford Courant of January 29 relating how the Bidwell Hardware Company of Hartford has been flourishing under President Harold F. Bidwell of Simsbury. Hal's company, which was started by his father, has just begun its 50th business year and marked the occasion with an open house in its newly modernized building centrally located in Hartford. Floor-to-ceiling windows, cornice floodlights and asphalt tile floors help to pretty the place up. The business has three departments—hardware division, industrial division, and builders specialty division—and in one place or another you can buy just about anything hard, from a nail to a dumb waiter.

Congratulations are likewise being meted out this month to Doc Miller, elected physician-in-chie£ of The Memorial Hospital in Worcester, Mass., a goo-bed institution having several Dartmouth graduates on its active staff. And Secretary Os Skinner '2B, who hails from Troy, Pa., reminds us that neighbor Al Stillman of Laceyville is taking bows on his recent election as President of the Grange National Bank of Laceyville. Os says "being president and a director of that bank is only a sideline for Al, whose principal occupation is Treasurer of Whipple Brothers, Inc., a large lumber concern with sawmills galore and sales offices in various New York and Pennsylvania cities."

The usual quota of Tireless Twenties has been actively helping to weed sheep from goats in the annual process of sifting out the entering class. Sherry Baketel remains Alumni Councilor in charge for Eastern Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey. Committee Chairmen in their various areas are Tudor Bradley, Paul Canada, Al Cate,Tom Davidson, Clint Johnson, Jim Robertson, Don Rogers and Dick Welch. Moreover, countless others may be doing almost if not quite the same amount of work on committee assignments, without the same opportunity for recognition.

Joan K., daughter o£ the George Sacketts, had her pretty picture in the New York Herald-Tribune around Christmas time. A graduate of Knox School, she was introduced at the Debutantes' New Year's Ball at the Waldorf-Astoria. The folks gave a dinner for her in advance of the ball and she had previpusly been honored at a tea at the Princeton Club. After all this, Joan went back to her -studies at the Garland School in Boston.

A brief secretarial stop-over in Chicago brought some congenial spirits together in a Bismarck Hotel room. Eastern travel is in prospect for a couple of them in June, when Nate Whiteside plans to attend his daughter's graduation from Pennsylvania College for Women and Fred Hamm will be on hand for daughter Shirley's Commencement at Bennett Junior College. Hersh Chandler was really set for his Hawaiian expedition early in March with some exciting sidetrips planned along the way. Reports had it that the Joe Brewers were due in town for the American Library Association mid-winter convention and all hands were looking forward to the annual Hanover Holiday in Chicago. In the latter connection one or another reported recent correspondence with Ben Potter of nearby Rock Island.

Laddie Myers, still plenty agile enough for his regular winter activity at squash rackets, passed along the word that Laddie Jr. is currently manager of Dartmouth's varsity lacrosse team And Ruel Colby, one-time Dartmouth "heeler" himself, reported on the sports page of the Concord Monitor that Tom Dudley Jr., now a sophomore, must have licked real competition to win the job of assistant manager of the swimming team.

Thanks to Hike Newell's handsome daughter Elinor (Mrs. Ellis Knowles Jr. of Rye) we can proffer an authentic if belated report on second and third generations of the family. Elinor is the favorite family name, Hike's wife, daughter and first granddaughter all answering at once, when called. Elinor 111 is three years old, and Pamela, the second grandchild, is 14 months. Those familiar with earlier Newell family history will remember that daughter Elinor was at one time a commercial artist with a prominent New York advertising agency. She goes about now painting much admired informal murals in the kitchens and gamerooms of friends, neighbors and other customers. She confides about her father that he remains an ardent fisher and hunter to the exclusion of most other non-business interests.

Bob Miner's brother Ed, class of 1927, is educational director of the Armed Forces Education Program. He reports that Bob is working a very active 14-hour day at Miami University in Ohio, but that even such a life is less hectic than his earlier days at C. C. N. Y., when he never knew from one day or night to the next what strange kind of personnel problem might beset him.

Sherm Adams' second daughter Sally was a lovely queen of Lebanon's annual Carnival Ball .... Young Sam Adams consented to leave, briefly, his Lincoln, N. H. countryside, in order to spend his 13th birthday with his parents at the State Capital.
