1914

Art Woodies reports that he, Ted Main and Chick Grant presided at an informal meeting in the Hanover Inn, the Columbia game weekend. Other scouts have advised that the Conners, Nichols, Reinserts, and Sissons were at the Naramores' on the way to the same game.

En route to the Princeton game your scribe ran into the Paul Smiths at a Howard Johnson's near Hartford, Conn. They were on their way to Florida via Princeton and we met up with them on Saturday again at the Princeton Inn, where they had been joined by their daughter and son-in-law. Until the snow clears from the Hanover Plain they will be at 120 Frederica Drive, Clearwater, Fla. Also saw Moose Englehorn ploughing through the rain and muck to his seat in the Palmer Stadium. It was a good game - for the first half - although wet. The less said about the rest the better!

New addresses to be noted are: Ted Main, 118 Central Park Drive, Holyoke, Mass.; E. A.Ballou, 386 Benefit St., Providence, R. I.; Hadley Cole, U.S. Veterans Administration Hospital, Rutland Heights, Mass. Write him a note when you have time; Ben Quarles, 1815 Ist Street, N.W., Washington 1, D. C.

Ray Trott was seen among other notables gracing the head table at a recent dinner o£ the Newcomen Society in Boston.

Treasurer Batchelder says some of the boys feel they are unduly optimistic in paying dues for five years in advance - nevertheless, many of us have gambled to that extent, and many are still hopeful. Some interesting tidbits come in with the checks. For instance, GuvFoss is the headman for E. B. Badger & Sons in England. In May '53 your scribe had lunch with him at the cafeteria of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Refinery, Isle of Grain, England. In the spring of '54 Jean Batchelder, Charlie's daughter, was entertained by Guv at a dinner in one of London's swank spots. If you are in London try to catch him at 40 Parkgate Road, Battersea, London S.W.11. He knows the best places!

It is my sad duty to report another loss in our class. Zut Therrien was killed in an automobile accident on November 7, according to word received from his secretary, Miss Evelyn Carlson, by President Buck. Zut had been manager of the Fruehauf Trailer Company in Seattle, Wash., for the past fourteen years. More details are included in the In Memoriam section.

Bob Noble is president of the Dartmouth Alumni Association of Vermont. This is one of the older of the Alumni Associations among the Dartmouth fellowship throughout the country.

Questionnaires continue to come in, but there are still many which may have fallen by the wayside. Keep 'em coming! At this writing 105 have been received with varying comment. When the collection is more nearly complete, you may be interested in some statistical data - such as the number of grandchildren—eight, I believe, is the record at the moment — or how many have been retired surprisingly few at the moment.

L. D. White must have made a flying trip into Hanover as he was registered at the Inn November 1 and out again November 2. Must have been something more important than a football game!

Chuck Kingsley, who has been mixed up in aviation for many moons and has been with Grumman Aircraft and Engineering for fourteen years, is now vice president and general counsel for that corporation. He is also an expert target shooter and goes deer hunting. Perhaps he could do better that that famous stalker from Etna!

Having missed seeing Francis Pooler for many years, have met up with him twice in one week. He is in the process of building a new house, as he says, "a little Cape Codder now the children have grown up."

Secretary, 40 Byron Rd., Weston 93, Mass.
