1937
Since this is our big year for the so-called FEROCIOUS FIFTEENTH Reunion which, grammatically speaking, is more nearly our Sialagogic Sixteenth, we would like to mention dates and facts in order that we can all be thinking toward the Peerade that will find us gathering once again in Hanover next spring.
Our combined reunion with the classes of 1938 and 1939 will be celebrated June 19, 20,and 21. Also there will be the combined reunion for 1917, 1918 and 1919, plus the individual classes of 1913 and 1943 on the same weekend. In line with College policy those classes having 25th and 50th reunions (1903 and 1928) will meet on Commencement weekend which is the one preceding ours. Hanover Holiday will run from June 15 through 18 for any so fortunate with time and cash.
Our terrific ball of fire, national and international personality, Jack Devlin, has accepted the post of Reunion Chairman which should promote an excellent program and good time for all.
It's easy enough for any of us local yokels to figure on attending but those of us who live any distance away have got some planning to do and it's a constant tribute to Dartmouth that each year different alumni come from all over the country and even from outside to convene with their classmates.

Art Guyer is back again. Since graduation he has had a myriad of jobs that have taken him all over Europe, Africa, India and Arabia with such employers as UNRRA, US Army, Air Corps, State Dept. and private business. Art is through with government agencies, due to their "premium on conformity and inefficiency," and is looking for new connections in New York. with civilian organizations. He feels that Europeans don't feel we understand their problems at all. They think we're dictating to them. The U.S. cannot buy the friend- ship of Europe but must show them we believe in them.

This department has not gleaned much from the opening football game weekend with Holy Cross except that Monk Anion made the trip again and reported a paucity of classmates about. He managed snatches of conversation with Loring Stinson, Paul Olson, and Morgan McGuire sounds like more of a lawyers' weekend.
Washington is thinning out. Jake Randolph resigned from OPS last August returning to the Aluminum Cooking Utensil Co., of New Kensington, Pa., where he was district sales representative.

Any regular readers of Newsweek will remember an article last March under Science that ran a picture of three gents, one of whom was Don Miller. The write-up had to do with the success story of the magazine Scientific American, of which Don is the business manager and VP. Starting with nothing but the rights to the name of the magazine in 1946 Don and his two friends have built up a circulation of better than 110,000 and the revenue for 1952 is expected to reach $1,000,000. To celebrate the birth of their fourth child (as an excuse) Don and his wife took a six weeks' vacation on the continent last spring which they found highly educational also they got in a bit of real skiing in Switzerland only 4000 feet under the Matterhorn.
For anyone who goes looking for AI Sutter in Hanover he regrets to announce his transfer this summer to Quantico, Va., where the Marine Corps has assigned him to the Education Center of Marine Corps Schools. Al- though his duties in Hanover were supposedly for a term of three years they were cut short due to his promotion to full Colonel and the job in Dartmouth's program called for lesser rank. During the class officers' meeting in Hanover last June your correspondent, your class agent and treasurer, with attendant wives, did call upon the Sutters and under the guide of friendly and spirited conversa- tion did drink up and do away with a goodly portion of the good Colonel's best liquor reserves. (... and that's the story, son, of how your Daddy got into Lhe Reserve). Having been reconnected with Dartmouth, Al feels they are doing a more thorough job with the undergraduates today than when we were there, more personal interest is shown in all students but particularly the average or below average ones. Also the curriculum offers more practical courses like Great Issues and Writing and Speech Clinics.
