1933

By the time this edition hits the street, the executive committee of your class will have had its first meeting. We shall report later upon the proceedings, actions, reactions and participants of this conference, and we hope that each one of you will have been there to put in his two cents worth.

You have had the news from Jackson of Bill Lang's appointment as assistant vice president, United States Steel Corporation. As you know, Bill is also assistant treasurer of U.S.S. and president of United States Steel Homes Credit Corporation.

Tom Noonan has been appointed a commissioner of the Workmen's Compensation Board of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania by Governor George Leader. Ray Silva has been appointed a teacher of mathematics in the Newton, Mass., high school. Paine Knickerbocker, veteran San Francisco newspaperman, was appointed drama editor of the San Francisco Chronicle. It says here, "His journalistic experience, his literary scholarship, and his warm and friendly personality will be regular features hereafter of The Chronicle's film and drama pages."

We are informed that Burt Hack and MelKatz and family lolled around the Inn recently.

Further news from the public prints: Johnny Schneider has been promoted to vice president and account supervisor of Biow-Beirn-Toigo, Inc., the agency he joined in 1953. John is also president of the National Television Film Council, an organization devoted to promoting proper production and use of TV film. Sumner L. Rittenberg of Brookline owns and operates Kiddie Ranch, located at Saugus on the Newburyport Turnpike. Kiddie Ranch is a children's amusement center where good fun is enjoyed "in a wholesome atmosphere unique in modern times" states the Lynn (Mass.) Democrat. Sumner allows no liquor, games of chance or other undesirable influences on the premises. The latter obviously rules out attendance by members of the Classes of 1932 or 1934. From the Indianapolis (Ind.) News comes the news that Jack B. Huntress, a Laporte native, is the new merchandise manager for the Chrysler Division of Chrysler Corp. Jack was recently advertising manager for the Nash Division of American Motors, and he started toward his present position in the advertising department of the Boston Record in 1933. Dr.Cupe Farmer is still president of the Vermont State Medical Society and of the State Board of Medical Registration. In April the election of Dr. Donald A. Murray, associate professor of modern languages at Beloit College, as vice president of Phi Sigma lota, national romance language honorary fraternity, was announced by the fraternity's national office. Don took his Master's degree from Harvard and a Ph.D. from Stanford. He has studied also at McGill in Montreal, University of Dijon, France, and National University of Mexico. He joined the Beloit faculty in 1936. After a year in Buffalo with Dunlop, Frank S.King, a mechanical engineer and well-known Akron area resident, has joined the tire design research department of Goodyear in Akron. Your secretary never did get to see Frank while he was in Buffalo.

Our congratulations to all of our appointees, promotees and selectees mentioned above.

From the address changes of this evermovin' class: Bill Hoffman has moved from Evanston up to 3812 N. Bartlett Ave., Shorewood, Wis., and the records indicate that he's still a sales engineer with Union Bag & Paper Co. Dr. Gordon F. Hull Jr. has removed from Hanover to 38 Walden St., Concord, Mass., and the record does not show his present endeavors, although we wager they have a scientific bent. Bud Madden pops up in Denver with an office at 2401 E. 40th Ave. and home at 314 Franklin Ave., as executive vice president of "Quick-Way" Truck Shovel Co. It's a fascinatin' name, Bud; please describe the operation for our readers. Jim Noonan, brother of Tom (see supra), has this address, Office of Comptroller, USARAL-Audit Div., APO 949, Seattle, Wash. Can't tell from the address, Jim, whether you're still in the Army or are figuring for them as a cillyvillian. The name of your branch, though, looks like it probably takes care of the usual and natural figure checking business.

Ed Patch shows up at Rt. 3, Kankakee, Ill., from Chicago. Are you still occupied, Ed, as president of E. L. Patch Co., manufacturers of pharmaceutical supplies? Charlie Shafer, at 501 N. High St., Baltimore 33, is probably still pres. of J. Fred Shafer Co., food brokers. One of the fellows we mentioned last month as having showed up at the Inn now lives at 63 Indian Spring Lane, Rochester 18, N. Y. Policy prevents naming him two months in a row, but his initials are C. E. S. Lup White, who was grubbing around as a junior executive at Socony-Vacuum Oil Co., Inc., when last we heard in 1948, has moved to 19 Dellwood Ave., Chatham, N. J. Hugh Henderson is out of Joliet and now at Liberty (ville), Ill., where he lives at 405 S. Milwaukee Ave., though he works for Ditto, Inc., in Chicago (12) at 2243 W. Harrison St. Speaking of Liberty, John D.Kelley has moved in Milwaukee (17) to 725 East Henry Clay St., and we'd sure appreciate it if you would give us some more biographical data, John, such as names of wife if any, children if any, job if any, etc.

Bill Forster, bound for Minneapolis with General Mills, has closed in at 6508 State Line Road, Kansas City 13, Mo. Stu Durkee lives at 711 Linda Vista Ave., Pasadena. Paul Burtis is now in North Conway, N. H„ and we don't know what he's about but think that whatever it is, it is probably tuneful and harmonious.

Two Aliens make the last move for this month: Alva to 22087 Westchester Rd., Shaker Heights 22, and Ted to 16 Greenwood Lane, Valhalla, N. Y. Understand the people around Cleveland consider Shaker Heights to be the same thing as Valhalla.

Don't miss next month's exciting issue full of the warmth and kindliness of Christmas. If you are stumped on what to give Dartmouth College for Christmas, consider the 1933 Memorial Fund shopping service as a handy aide. It has many plans individually tailored to fit your purse and some specifically designed to shrink it. Better purses than heads, as the fella says.

Secretary, 217 Goundry Street, North Tonawanda, N. Y.

Treasurer, Quechee, Vt.

Memorial Fund Chairman, 44 Maple St., Dover, N. H.
