1927
On the eve of the Harvard game which is now ancient history, Gus Cummings entertained at a very pleasant cocktail party at the Ritz-Carlton in Boston. There were some 20 of the class present including Ding Heap,Kern Folkers, Elmer Worth, Josh Davis, HankVietor, Don Gardner, Neal Dowe, Bob Page,Les Batten, Bert Gustin, Marsh Lovegrove, EdBatchelder, Clark Edmonds, Andy Rankin,Gordon Smith, Charlie Bartlett, Tom Anglem,Gus Cummings and your scribe.
Hank Vietor was attending his first meeting of the Class in this section and many of us had not seen him since graduation. He has formerly been in the Middle West in various spots including Minneapolis and Milwaukee, working for Shell Oil Company. Having been brought up in Amesbury, Mass., Hank was happy to be transferred to the New England district about a year ago and is now living with his family in West Newton.
Elmer Worth came up from Connecticut for the party and game. He is now living in Mansfield near Storrs, Conn., and is currently serving as plans and operations officer for the Air Force ROTC at the University of Connecticut. Our other visitor from Connecticut, Marsh Lovegrove, is still working in Hartford, Conn., selling various types of building materials.
Josh Davis and his wife Jill were staying at the Ritz for the weekend of the game.
A much appreciated letter was received from John Hough who is still a professor of classical languages at the University of Colorado in Boulder, Colo. From his letterhead we learn that he has been elected secretary and treasurer of the Classical Association of the Middle West and South, Inc. Among his duties in this office is the management of the Classical Journal which is published by that association. We hope John's many duties will not prevent his being present at the twentyfifth next June.
We have more information regarding the father and son golf tournament here in Massachusetts mentioned in our last column. This was the Worcester County father and son tournament and Paul O'Connell with g-yearold Paul Jr. played in the junior division. It was only the second full 18 holes young Paul had ever played and they had a gross 95 based on alternate shots to win the tournament by a single stroke.
Lee Greenbaum's older son Charles is in the freshman class at Hanover this year, which may partially account for the fact that Lee and his wife visited at the Hanover Inn over the weekend of October 12. Other visitors at the Inn during October included Reg Horton of Bridgeport, Charlie Bartlett of Dedham, Mr. and, Mrs. D. W. Benson of Pulaski, N. Y., and Dr. and Mrs. John Greener of Brooklyn.

195 a is almost here and that means only six months before the great twenty-fifth reunion. Hope we will see you there.
Also, you have but a few days left in this tax year to send in your contribution for the 1927 Memorial Gift to the College. Gus and his assistants have a terrific quota if we are to hit $127,000. They need a lot of help. Let's do it now!
By now you all know that 1927, as the 25Year Class, is the subject of a special study project by two Dartmouth seniors. If you have not yet filled out and returned your questionnaire, please do it right away. The answers are strictly anonymous and cannot hurt you.
