THE HITCHING POST. ...As far back as last April 24 Bill Sullivan wed Elizabeth Moora Collins in Wollaston, Mass. The bride attended College of New Rochelle and graduated from the Garland School in Boston. Bill's with the Frederick L. O'Brien insurance firm in Worcester.
A couple of weeks later, May 9, for those of you who couldn't get the details from them when they reuned in June, Hank Barnes and Susan Thistle Coolidge spliced a nuptial knot in Westport, Conn. Among those taking tickets was Al Mitchell. The new Mrs. B. attended the Hartford Hospital School of Nursing.
Early in the summer we received the glad tidings that Orian St. George Ward and DaveTaylor were married May 15.
Dr. Bud Nagle celebrated the completion of his internship a month early when he waltzed down the aisle with Miriam Ardelle Hemmig of Tremont, Pa. Fellow sawbones from Lankenau Hospital, Ken Anderson, was on hand to ush. Miriam attended Juniata College and is a grad of guess what hospital's school of nursing! Starting July 1 Bud began his residency at the State University of lowa Hospital. Oh, yes, the ceremony took place May 22.
Final May couple was Frank Harrington and Sara Grace Heathman of Dayton, Ohio, on the 29th of that month. Sal graduated from Pine Manor. Frank, employed by the Paul Revere Life Insurance Company of Worcester, got himself located in Albuquerque. That's in New Mexico, son! The ushers included Jack Harned, Harry Hall, and George Duffy, though the Duke took a wrong turn at the draft board and had to settle for honorary status from his Icelandic igloo.
First of a quartette married in the traditional season of weddings was Bill Stone and Erika Klopfer on June 12 in New York where Bill's in the ad biz with BBD&O. Erika ist einmädchen von Deutschland.
We didn't get the exact date for Mr. andMrs. Jacques Jean Harlow, but it was learned they're living in Athens, Greece. The former Alison Ann Murphy polished off Vassar last June.
On June 26 two braves succumbed at the altar. Dave McLean and Miss Joanna Pfaff exchanged vows in Park Ridge, Ill. The couple are at home in Toledo where Dave is a glass blower for the Kimble subsidiary of Owens, Ill. Phil Hoadley was a member of the wedding party.
Same date in Scarsdale, N. Y., at the Church of the Immaculate Heart of St. Mary, ReneBlanc took Patricia Ann Burke of Crestwood as his better half.
The day before the kids had their licks at the fireworks, Lt. (jg) Bill Williams came ashore from his submarine (the Entemedor) and married Gladysmary Cahill of Staten Island. Ex-USN's Ben Johnson and JimMoore were on deck as side boys, according to Ted Bamberger, who spotted Jim Hotchkiss,Mai Hill, and Don Hannigan at the church. Additional gossip from the Cleveland clothier appears sporadically throughout this column. This gal is a graduate of Hood and has been with the NYU College of Medicine.
Galen Jones took the hand of Edith Agnes Boehme of Westville, N. J., July 17. Edith claims New Jersey College for Women as alma mater, and should be able to look forward to a great garden next spring as Jonesie is studying for his Ph.D. in biology at Rutgers. Well, maybe not, the field is really microbiology.
Had to go to (ugh) work to find out about this one, as the bridegroom and your scribbler are fellow slaves at Crane Company in Long Island City. (Did you see the plug, boss???) Ron Bohle is the lad in question and his new helpmeet is the former Elaine Ackel. They picked the hottest day of the year, July 31, in Mount Kisco, and had on hand Jim Stevens as best man and Bob Alden '49 as an usher.
Will save the August affairs for next time to conserve on space.
WALKING THE LAST MILE. . . . SherMarchant started down the trail April 18 when his engagement to Miss Anita Eger was announced in Hartford. She attended Hartford College and donned cap and gown at Wheaton in June. The Head is assistant secretary of the Connecticut Beef Co. Gotta good "steer" for us, Mr. M?

RATTLE PRATTLE A fine note from Dick Ceely boasts of the arrival of a bundle of joy named Janet, February 10, "to join a son, David, who has been eating here since January 11, 1952. To offset grocery bills and other incidentals, I have found it necessary to do a little time study work at the American Bosch Corp. here in Springfield (Mass.). Previously I hustled insurance. I see a lot, but not enough, of Ned Weir who is covering the Connecticut countryside with neon signs. BenFerguson is still the greatest admirer of good jazz and amber malt beverage, and a banker on the side. Bruce Joe Magoon even combs his hair now to go to work at the Framingham Trust Co." Dick further revealed that the above-mentioned Don Hannigan is a service manager in the group department of the Mass. Mutual Life Insurance Co.
June and Doug Smith added an income tax exemption to the fold in Atlanta May 1. Doug Junior showed up on his sister Martha Hunter's second birthday! (Ed. note: great timing!) The lad tipped the scale at 7 pounds, 14 ounces, and measured a couple of inches shy of two feet. And he's quite a towhead. Pop is in the loan and discount department at the main office of Citizens and Southern National Bank. .
Number one arrived July 15 for Ruth andJoel Leavitt, who forthwith dubbed the charmer Cindy Gail.
Welcome, youngsters!!!
SERVICE SIDELIGHTS. . . . Somehow the injuns maintain their prejudices for the anchors-aweigh clan and we've heard of several whose feather head-dresses have that blue and gold cast about them. A new billet for Lt. (jg) Ray DeVoe is indicated by FPO at COMSTRIKFOR. Probably has it real rough in Naples.
Those who recall the incident of our Navy planes' downing two Chinese Red aircraft during search operations for survivors of the British airliner in the Far East last July will be interested to know that Dick Ribble was one of seven of the fly boys involved. Other fliers for the fleet, but in the States, include Lt. BobO'Neil with VC-3 at Moffett Field in California and Frank Barker, who's passing on his learning to the fledglings at Pensacola.
Peirce Udall might get a chance to work on the molars of some of those guys since he's joined the dental corps of the Navy. He might even work over Jackson Hazen's choppers as he's with the First Marine Division, last reported in Korea the end of May.
Barnie McPhillips has his corporal stripes and an APO San Fran address with the construction section headquarters of the Second Engineers in the Army.
So much for this column as the Alumag Editor is sitting up in Hanover with a big red pencil and threatening to use it. Let us hear from you in the coming months, and now, back to your leaf pile, dad!
WEARING HIS '50 BLAZER, Judge HaroldR. Medina is shown with Mrs. Medina in SunValley, Idaho. The Judge was given his Dartmouth blazer when he was awarded an honorary degree by the College four years ago.
