Our Annual Commencement Reunion June 15, 16, 17. We are assured of our location in South Massachusetts on the above dates, and you are urged to make reservations in the early spring in the following manner: Send to Mason I. Ingram, Bursar's Office, Hanover, a check for reservations covering a charge of $2.00 per night for each person for whom you wish accommodations. We will appreciate a notice of your plans so it may be given publicity through these columns and through Squid's news distribution which will soon be a welcome item in our class mail.
Hanover Holiday is an event between Commencement and the following weekend of large class reunions. It has an accruing appeal to alumni for a five-day session of lectures, one in the morning and again in the evening, with time between for golf, campus loafing and renewing acquaintance with men of other classes. 1901 observes its Fiftieth this year and 1902 and 1903 follow in successive years until our Fiftieth in Fifty-Four. Let's make these June periods the occasions and the Campus the place when members of our undergraduate college generation may again meet in the tradition of the Tucker influence to revitalize its values for steadying and emphasizing intelligent cooperative action in the current instability at all levels.
We had no word from Louis Perry's widow since 1949 until a card from Charlotte Ford, who knows everything about Dartmouth s family, arrived recently. Mary Perry wrote, "I'm house mother for 40 of the finest boys here Phi Delta Theta, University of lowa. My husband was an Alpha Delta Phi at Dartmouth but he would have approved of my 'family,' 729 North Dubuque St., lowa City." She's a rare person who has been mentioned in terms of appreciation in this column. Alpha Delt and Phi Doodle may well be proud of her loyalty and enthusiasm. They should make use of her lowa city address to tell her so.
Bob Fiske in a brief card says he has moved to Seven Palms, California. Due to the writer's long hotel experience the first thought was of extended palms, not in a gesture of salute, but face up with an implied "put it there." We are hoping that Bob finds the palms in his new location the sincere handshaking variety. Let's have more Fiske news, Bob.
Ned Bartlett was made Chairman of the Board of Hooker Electric Chemical Company at the January meeting.
In early February Carl and Kitty Woods attended a party given in Portland, Maine, by Mr. and Mrs. Richard Hallet on the occasion of their announcement of the engagement of their daughter Nancy Louise to Jim Woods. Last year, during the February 1950 Carnival, Nancy and Jim visited us and we are happy to say this is one of the choice news items to reach us this year, as is the fact that they hope to be married in the near future.
