Only eight more shopping days, give or take a' couple, before Christmas! The time of year when we are again reminded that it is more blessed to give than to receive. Appended hereto is the list of our conscientious brethren who took this message to heart last spring and gave to the Alumni Fund for the continued glory and progress of the College and the honor of this Class. Well done, we say, and may every name of '33. appear on this list of givers next year!
We give you these gleanings from here and there:— Russ Shaver, who has been with IBM since 1937, has been naraed manager of its State Government Special Department at WHQ (which we assume is IBM's World Headquarters). Congratulations to you, Russ, living in Garden City. Ditto to Cupe (Dr.Howard J.) Farmer of St. Johnsbury, Vt., who was recently elected president of the Vermont State Medical Society at the 141 st annual meeting of the society held, strangely enough, at Bretton Woods, N. H. Gordon Ingram, still sticking to Hanover, has been named to the Hanover Board of Selectmen to fill a vacancy caused by the recent death of Archie B. Gile. George Rideout, vice president of Babson Reports, Inc., was guest speaker at the Springfield, Mass., Rotary Club, September 24, subject "The Business Outlook." Alfred J. Jennings served Fairfield, Conn., where he is plant manager of the Fabrics Division plant of the du Pont Co., as campaign chairman of the Community Chest. Hope you made the 102 Grand, Al.
Another red feather in '33's cap is Bob Fox of Wellesley Hills, who served as vice chairman of industry and banks for the East Metropolitan Division of the recent Greater Boston Red Feather Campaign. Ted Holmes, whose career has been as varied as any in our Class, is a newly appointed English instructor at Farmington (Maine) State Teachers College. Another of our teachers is Lefty (J. Raymond) Silva who returns to Gloucester as head of the Mathematics Department at Gloucester High School after an instructorship in Salem Teachers College. Kimball Flaccus, who teaches a course in creative writing at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, recently gave an evening lecture there on "The Author and His Craft." Frank S. King, after eighteen years with Firestone in Akron, has recently become a neighbor of ours in Buffalo, N. Y., where he has been named technical manager for tires at Dunlop Tire & Rubber Co.
Football games, sons in college or general nostalgia have been responsible for these recent visitors to Hanover: Bob Critchell, Mr.and Mrs. Hobie Van Deusen, John Faegre,Mr. and Mrs. Jack Jlunley (whom we are going to get to see one of these days, come hell or high water), Mr. and Mrs. Herb Moatz, and Mr. and Mrs. Hank McKee.
We were happy to have lunch in Buffalo the other day with Ralph and Doris Campbell on their way through to New York. They gave us news of Bill Forbes who has made a good recovery from a bad accident several months ago.
Harvey W. Hardy has been appointed assistant manager of Owens Moore Grant Knowle.s, Ladies' Retail Ready-to-Wear in Portland, Me., and still lives at Cape Cottage, and Gordon H. Ladd has been appointed research and statistical analyst for the Vermont Unemployment Compensation Commission, 7 School St., Montpelier, and still lives at Washington, Vt.
Continuing with our thoughts about giving, don't forget the 1933 Memorial Fund if you have any year-end gift problem crying for solution. Each of u.s had that good letter from Gen. George Theriault and felt a darn good glow of real pride in the job that the Class has done thus far. We're ahead of the game so far and the trick is to stay that way. George spelled out the way to do it, and our sincere hope is that each one of us will think through honestly and clearly NOW today his own responsibility in this large and important project of the whole Class, and will then act upon his conclusion first thing tomorrow morning. If you're a morning reader, act on your desire this afternoon! As George so ably pointed out, a big desire can be accomplished in regular little chunks.
Don D'Arcy, who has done a tremendous job for us during the last year with our Memorial Fund, dropped off for lunch with your reporter at the Buffalo airport a couple of weeks ago on his way home from a business trip to Detroit. He's fired up about the 1933 Fund and the marvelous way the Class has backed it from the go. He and his committee are building the 1933 Fund organization all over the countrv. If you feel that you would like to help (outside of your money, of course), drop him a line and let him know you are ready to blow the horn in your regional set-up. Incidentally, wherever and whenever two or more '33ers want to get together to do a little serious talking and thinking about the Fund, Don stands ready to join you, if you want him, at the drop of a hat and on very short notice. Get a gang together, send Don an invitation, and five will get you ten that he'll be there. With the spirit already evidenced by this Class, five will get you another ten that this Memorial Fund project is going to be the most successful joint, all-inclusive and wholehearted endeavor ever undertaken by 1933. Think about your part in it NOW! Act NOW! Only 42 more giving months until our Big 25th!
And now, a very happy and peaceful Christmas to all of you and to all of your loved ones and to our beloved country.
