1933
Lions roar. Lambs gambol. MARCH marches on!
The mailbag, though slim, contains some interesting items. For instance, it is rumored that Jack Robinson may take the editorship of the '33 Newsletter, and perhaps has already done so by the time this edition hits the street. If Jack can take the job, we know he will do an outstanding piece of work and this column will be credited with a scoop. If he isn't able to do so, we can use up some space in a future issue explaining that it really was two other guys all the while. So, good luck, Jack, or whoever you may be, and let's all the rest of us see that the Newsletter gets a full quota of news. Gentlemen, man your pens!
While the Newsletter is a more or less year 'round affair, it is, of course, of utmost importance during the Alumni Fund period from April through June. Which reminds us quite a substantial number of the boys are already in with their contribution for 1955, a practice which we highly commend to each of our valued readers. One gentleman of this blessed foresight is Arch Delmarsh, and we mention Arch only for the purpose of giving his Adirondack hostelry at Inlet, N. Y., its welldeserved annual plug. You will have no re- grets in staying at Rocky Point for a night, a weekend, two weeks or the whole summer. Neither will the kids. Live at the Inn or have your own cabin. And the Thruway makes it easy to get to, too!
In New York recently for the State Bar Ass'n. annual meeting, we supported the Commodore bar for an hour or so with BobDoscher. Disappointed not to see Win Hobbs and wife or Al Swan. If there were other classmates present, our paths unfortunately did not cross. We wished, but lacked the time, to drop in on Sam Cunningham at the 39th & Madison branch of Irving Trust Co., of which Sam has just been named an assistant vice president.
Other appointments of interest to all of us: Dr. James C. Walker, reported here recently as having moved to Boston from Texas, has been appointed to the neurosurgical department of the new Carney Hospital, near the Milton (Mass.)-Dorchester line. Jim graduated from Tufts Medical School, is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, certified by the American Board of Neurological Surgery, and is the father of three boys.
Page Worthington has accepted the chairmanship of the 1955 Heart Fund Campaign of Maryland - a big job. As you may remember, Page is general commercial manager of the Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Company of Baltimore City and he and Mary live at Towson, Md. He is also a former Newsletter editor.
Jim McFarland, out in Minneapolis, has been appointed Director of Operations for the Grocery Products Division of General Mills. Jim has been with General Mills since graduation from Tuck School in 1934, except for a hiatus of over three years while serving with the Army Air Corps. He started in Wichita and came to Minneapolis via Detroit and Great Falls. Jim's growth with the company has been steady and sound, and we confidently look forward to the day when, as president of General Mills, Jim gazes at us with dignity from the pages of the Saturday Evening Post while speaking a good word for a well-known brand of mutual life insurance.
Those brothers sojourning in Hanover recently include Hobie Van Deusen, Mr. andMrs. Bill Bates, Mr. and Mrs. John Faegre Jr., and' Mr. and Mrs. Fran Harrington.
incidental intelligence from a Christmas card: Gus Babson's eldest daughter Barbara is a freshman at Bradford Junior College, Haverhill, Mass.
Very little activity among the moving men this month. Don Seixas has moved from San Mateo to 30 Stonegate Rd., Woodside, Calif., and Chuck Wagner has moved in Cleveland Heights to 2995 Edgehill Rd.
As this is written, it appears that we're sitting on a powder keg in and around Formosa. What will have developed by the time you read it is anybody's guess, but from here it doesn't look good. Our counsel is to keep your shirt on and your powder dry.
See you around income tax time.
