Atlanta
Following a very successful luncheon meeting at Mammy's Shanty here in Atlanta during the Southeastern Conference back in November, we have unanimously selected this spot as our permanent monthly meeting place. In review, luncheon meetings are held here the last Monday of each month at 12:30, and we invite y'all to meet with us when you're passing through.
The December Round-up was well attended with several visitors and a grand total of some twenty-odd men. Honored guests for this luncheon were Ernie Rogers, staff writer for the Atlantic Journal and Constitution, whose son is Wally Rogers '56; Bob Cleveland '55; Rom Powell '57; and Herb Roskind '57. Each student described class activities and gave us the word on Hanover life.
With the onset of the New Year, PresidentFortuna addressed the group with a summary of the past year's activities and proposals and prospects for the New Year. During the course of the meeting, the enrollment committee was revamped, with Dune Dobie '38 as chairman.
The interviewing committee, composed of Ed Gingrich '48, Vail Haak '49, Hank Davis '42, and Lou Fortuna '38, general chairman, have interviewed four applicants and scheduled three for the month of February. Things look promising.
A much sought-after consummation of a joint endeavor of the Agnes Scott Glee Club and the Dartmouth Glee Club was accomplished, and the concert will be held on March 26. Dobie '38 as general chairman has appointed the following chairmen: RichardMcCarthy '51 - publicity; Fred Eaton '40 - tickets and program; Bill Marsh '31 - entertainment; and Graham Conklin '43 - housing. It will be both a unique function and a very special one for all in the Atlanta area.
