The Dartmouth Club of Holyoke held its annual winter meeting on Monday evening, December 28, at the Yankee Pedlar Inn. Over sixty alumni, undergraduates, friends, and prospective Dartmouth men attended. HallamJ. Clark '23, president of the Club, presided. Arthur Kiendl '44, assistant dean of the College, and Milt Piepul, backfield coach of varsity football, were the principal speakers.

The Dartmouth Night record of President Eisenhower's Commencement speech was replayed, and Fran L'Esperance '53, who had presented the senior cane to the President, gave his impressions of the famous day.

C.H. Kent '10, introduced Coach Bobby Marr of Deerfield Academy; Bill Keating, local sports writer and announcer of the Holyoke Daily Transcript-Telegram and WHYN; and Milt Piepul, who spoke informally for fifteen minutes. Prior to this talk, Milt appeared on TV and radio here in Holyoke. He mentioned in his talk that Holyoke's own Paul Mackey '54, who was present, was Dartmouth's unsung football hero of 1953. Other varsity football player in attendance was Mike Papantones '54.

John Gallup '49, Club-secretary-treasurer, introduced Arthur Kiendl, who gave an excellent talk on Dartmouth in general, and his new duties as director of student counselling in particular. Also, the movie My First Weekat Dartmouth was shown.

Morton Hull '08 introduced himself as Holyoke's oldest living grad.

Club officers, in addition to Clark and Gallup, are Theodore Main '14, program chairman; C. H. (Bert) Kent '10, admissions chairman; and Edmund Wakelin '39, chairman of the interviewing committee.

The annual spring meeting of the Club is planned for the spring-vacation period.
