1910

Three of our Tenners took part in a history-making event for our Class, on the first Sunday in October. The Tenners are Guy Carpenter, Rev. Harold W. Robinson and Fletch Rogers. The event was the dedication to the memory of Winsor Wilkinson of the living-room of the Outing Club Cabin, which is near Donner Pass high in the Sierras, nearly 200 miles from San Francisco. The room was designed by Wilk, furnished through donations from the Dartmouth Alumni of the Northern California Association's area, and is marked by a bronze plaque provided by our Class through action of our Executive Committee.

The idea suggested in the recent Tenner Topics, that we make something of this year s "before-Harvard-game" dinner, as a celebration of the passing of fifty years since the fall when we entered College, did not catch on with as many of the Class as we had hoped. As a matter of fact, it seems to have worked in reverse. We had eleven men at the dinner: Charlie Fay, A1 Ferguson, Ted Hill, Bones Tones, Art Lord, Russ Meredith, Beezle Parker, Roge Pierce, Hal Sprague, Julius Warren and Herb Woods. Larry Bankart dropped in on us late — after half of the fellows had left. Larry was in Cambridge celebrating with the group which saw three of Harvard's football greats of the past receive certificates of membership in the Football Hall of Fame. It was the annual Harvard Varsity Club dinner. From Larry we learned that our Jayvee and Freshmen teams had scored victories over Harvard's offerings on Friday afternoon. As matters developed in the Stadium, Saturday, it was good to have this fortifying information to bolster our spirits. Another Tenner was in town but tied down to another affair. This was Hank Haserot who was promoting the use of pineapple juice with a group of prospects. According to Julius Warren who had "tasted" some of the "juice" with Hank before coming to our dinner, Hank's pineapples had some accomplices. What an opportunity for promotion Hank missed in not sending over a few "samples" to us at the University Club. We could have told our wives about the quality and "unusual" flavor in Hank's product.

Returning to the subject of the "nightbefore" dinner, we are beginning to feel that this event is fast losing its appeal. Bones Jones, our perennial and tireless chairman of the affair, has come up with the suggestion that we, as the efficiency experts put it, "explore" the idea of a luncheon before the game on Saturday, which would be for wives and families of Tenners. He believes that some of the men who plan to take in the game do not feel a very strong urge to drive into town and back, the night before. We'll be more than pleased if a few Tenners will express themselves on. this subject, and thus help in the "exploration."

Herb Woods and Beezle Parker are two Tenners who have been through some surgery since the June gathering in Hanover. Both appeared to have recovered and to be in good shape. Herb even climbed to the top of the Stadium with me, from which vantage point, opposite the 50-yard line, we had the best possible view of the game. While we were on our way along Tremont Street about noon, headed for the Stadium, we ran into John VanderPyl. He and wife Mary were in town for the game but had not arrived Friday in time for our dinner. From his return card, we learned that Earle Pierce planned to get to the game. He was in Hanover for the opening game with New Hampshire. We sure are pleased to learn that Earle's condition is so satisfactory that he can do such "chores."

While we were watching the final game of the World Series, we had a call from Art andBertha Lord who were in Troy returning from Cornell where they had visited their daughter Laura, who is studying the history of some of the countries which she knows from her past couple of years in Europe with a government agency.

Julius Warren, retired, educator from Missouri, just cannot keep out of the harness. At present he is at Harvard as coordinator for international education, secondary schools. Charlie Noone reported on his return card, that he and his wife had recently returned from "a very interesting trip through Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Holland and Denmark." He says they picked up interesting information on Russia. The Doc Fosters visited England in July. Later Doc attended the International Pediatric Conference in Copenhagen. Then on the way home they made a tour of European countries.

Ed Prescott writes that he has been "out of commission since June but is improving now and hopes nothing will prevent being in Hanover next June. Ed Keith's card brought the disturbing information that he was about to undergo major surgery. We hope that by this time he is on the road to recovery and comfort.

Win Nay has come through with one of those "experiences" of our early days in Hanover. He writes, "Got to ruminating the other night about Prof. 'Harmony' Morse. There were a few Tenners who sang in the College Choir and some of us sang in his Orpheus Club. I remember that awful night when he led the Club in a concert with a hired tenor (from Boston, I think) and in the middle of one of the songs (I think it was The Blue Danube) the tenor and we parted company, and poor 'Harmony' had to stop everything cold and start over again. Was his face red? Anybody else remember that occasion?"

Mai Bissell tells us that he is "busy picking the biggest and best apple crop we've had in the ten years we've been here. However, we don't sell any — just give 'em away and pile the rest up in our cold storage room where they will last well into next spring." Must have had some good moisture-producing days in California, say we. Ray Gorton "really loves it" in Florida where he now lives permanently. Has no desire to return to the North but does miss meeting members of the Old Dartmouth gang. The Gortons made a brief visit to Boston in the summer.

Andy Scarlett and company, you will recall, added up a longer-than-usual list of 1910 donors to the Alumni Fund and since this is the issue of the MAGAZINE when all those names will be printed, we have to stop here and leave room.
