THE FALL ROUNDUP

The Dartmouth Club of Western Pennsylvania was represented at every football game this fall, and at the luncheon meetings on the following Wednesday the members who attended the games gave a brief report on the highlights of the games. At the Penn weekend a Western Pennsylvania alumni party was held at the Benjamin Franklin Hotel, and those who attended were Fred Garfield '46 and wife, Carl Tourtellot '45 and wife, Jim Olson '43 and wife, Buss Benner '44 and wife, and Mac Corner '44 and wife. The party began Friday evening with a round of the clubs in Philadelphia, football game on Saturday afternoon, dinner at the University Club, and a gay party at the Club Rendezvous Saturday evening. As you all know, the game was very much in favor of Pennsylvania. JohnBird '44, Bill Eaton '17, Nat Parker '26, and Gus Fuller '14 represented the Club at other games this past season.

The Dartmouth Night celebration under the chairmanship of Bob Douglas '48 was held at the University Club and the subject for the evening was the Cornell-Dartmouth thirddown game in 1940. Red Friesell gave his comments on how he refereed the game and made the mistake of the fifth down. Ave Daniels, who was line coach under Earl Blaik and who scouted Cornell, told how Dartmouth planned to stop Cornell with the use of the looping line. He also described the plays, during the showing of the movie. The following attended the Dartmouth Night dinner:

A few of the South Hills (suburb of Pittsburgh) Dartmouth alumni and wives now have a monthly social of one type or another which was started last summer. We have held several picnics, a square dance, a Halloween party, and plan to have a smorgasbord at the John Birds' in December. Those who have attended practically every one of these functions are Fred Garfield '46 and wife, Jim Olson '43 and wife, Sam Coombs '44 and wife, John Bird '44 and wife, Jim Hooker '43 and wife, Carl Tourtellot '45 and wife, Bob Pease '45 and wife, Harry Bmibaker '41, Carl Krough '41 and wife, Bob Douglas '48 and wife, and Mac Corner '44 and wife. John doesn't know exactly where he is going to put the Dartmouth crowd in his apartment. It was last reported that over 50 were going to attend the cocktail party and smorgasbord. Everyone going to the party has been requested to bring one Swedish dish and a container of cocktails.

On January 29 the Dartmouth Club of Western Pennsylvania is giving a banquet at the University Club for President John Dickey, who will give us a first-hand report on the College and its activities.
