Mandel Bros., 1 N. State St., Chicago 2, 111. From Bob Cleary comes news concerning many of our classmates whom he and Pense encountered on their trip to the West Coast last fall. Space limitations of this issue (because of the Alumni Fund report) prevent us from giving this news the coverage it deserves but we will give the highlights and save the details for next month. Bob reports as follows:
In Denver, Norrie Williamson (insurance), Chal Ewing (real estate) and Lu Titley (lumber) seem to have things well under control, and Morse (Tiny) Lake has the banking situation well in hand in Seattle.
John Horan, a transplanted easterner, and his wife Virginia are living in San Francisco with their two children John 111, aged six, and Geraldine, aged four months, and John sells electrical appliances when not acting as an inspector for the State Boxing Commission. Dick Dimond, another transplanted easterner, is with the Anglo-California National Bank in Frisco, and Bob reports they are both doing well.
John (Jack) Dunn has forsaken the Matson Navigation Cos. of Frisco and is now active in California real estate. Ritchie Smith, when not hunting or fishing, devotes his time to his new business—The City Transfer and Storage Cos. of Frisco—and with Betty and daughters Deborah and Patsy lives in Orinda, across the mountains behind Oakland, Calif. Bill and Kate Nigh are living temporarily in Encino, near L. A., where Bill is slowly but surely recovering from his illness and hopes soon to be back in the old routine.
In San Jose Bob saw Weldon Wilkinson who, after two years in Hanover, finished uat Minnesota, and is now a practicing physician (Optics) in that city. Weldon had just returned from a honeymoon spent in the southwest, concerning which we should know more.
Bob and Pense spent a while in Los Angeles, where Bob attended a convention of the Milk Industry Foundation which took up most of his time, but they saw Monk andHelen Bourne, who reported that ChuckHornburg, western distributor of Jaguar Motor cars, married Mrs. Gwen Barry last May and spent the honeymoon in Bermuda. Congratulations!
Also in L. A. Bob bumped into Joe Kinney, out from Pittsburgh on business for American Clad Metals. In San Diego DickWilbar, who moved west from Brockton, Mass. three years ago, was recovering from the flu. Dick is active in civil service work and lives with his wife Eleanor at 225 Kalmia Street.
In Glendora, Miss., the Clearys stopped off to see Sew and Donna Mills and were impressed with the vast operations of Sew's cotton plantation. Bob also encountered BillHughes in Williamsburg, Va., attending a conference of personnel executives and representing the Beacon Oil Cos. More about the Clearys' trip later.
OUR OWN WAH-HOO-WAHDEPARTMENT

AI Louer, our esteemed Class Agent (whose picture appears nearby in this issue) announces the appointment of Chuck Webster as chairman of the Special Gifts Committee, and Jack Mcllwraith as chairman of a Special Contact Committee for the coming campaign. Be ready with your contribution when Al and his boys contact you!
Donald W. (Don) Robinson, the editor of American Press magazine, has bought a farm near Stanton, N. J. where he says he hopes to raise one cow, one horse, one pig, one lamb, one steer, a dozen chickens and still have time to go fishing. This department admits to confusion. Don took a different course in biology than we did!

At the Christmasluncheon in Buffalo, December 27, were Charlie Abbott, Herb Darling, Ben Kent and yours truly, and the same group, with their wives, were on hand at the annual dinner on January 31 to hear Tuss McLaughry make with the football prospects for this fall.
The In Memoriam section of this issue carries the sad news of the passing of two of our members! Max Whitman passed away in his sleep in Scranton, Pa. on January 4, 1950 and Jack Milton Strauss died suddenly on January 20, 1950 in Beverly Hills, Calif. Our sincere sympathies are extended to their survivors.
