1920

Treasurer, Tuck School, Hanover, N. H.

Bequest Chairman,

It seems that the editor of the Green Sheet, our class raconteur, traveller and intelligencier, has roamed the country from Jamestown to Ithaca this summer for profit as well as pleasure. His latest diversion was attending a quilting-bee sponsored by the Vermont Historical Society. It is rumored he was toastmaster at a general meeting of the society where he listened to authentic Vermont Humor rather than dispensing the same. Al wasn't the only representative from Hanover as antiques from the collection of Harold Rugg were also on exhibition.

A couple of '2O men had a unique reunion at Middlebury College late in June, when Sam Stratton conferred an honorary degree on Sherm Adams. In connection with degrees, Sherm also received one from Centre College where he delivered the baccalaureate address.

A note from Colorado states that John 7,. Jordan Jr., son of our indefatigable Zack, was married the last of August to Nancy Moore Winters. John attended the Univ. of Colorado, played football and in his junior year was the leading punter in the country.

Down in Massachusetts they have just completed a new cross-state Turnpike under the able direction of Phil Kitfield as chief engineer. Phil also made the ceremonial address at the opening of the same.

Frank Moulton reports that Ben and Ellen Ayers passed through Littleton recently en route to Sugar Hill. It seems they spent their honeymoon there 34 years ago and make an annual pilgrimage. Hope springs eternal, doesn't it?

Jim and Ruth Chilcott have announced that daughter Joan was married early in September. Paul and Lillian Richter planned an August festival for the '20 families in this area. Unfortunately vacation plans nullified the project for all except Hal Bidwell. Hal reports an eniovable weekend with the Richters near Meredith.

Just completed a weekend at Boothbay, Me., where we called on Henry and Dorothy Dearborn at their summer place in East Boothbay. Hank has retired, bought a small place in Portland which will be permanent home and headquarters for his forays to California to see married daughter Mary and to visit son John, a Ph.D. in zoology. In the process he will dispose of the Boothbay retreat. What a delightful place to be on the market.

Al Cate recently flew up from Needham for his annual tennis match with Al Frey. Al brought word of the recent wedding of Shirley, daughter of Frank and Marie Kimber, to Raymond Pennoyer, currently a student at Tuck School.

Howie and Helen Pullen have a double reason to be elated this fall. Son David is in the entering class at Dartmouth, a third member of the family to carry on the tradition and his twin sister Mary Ann enters the School of Nursing at U. of Michigan.

At the Chicago Tribune's Forum on advertising held in May, Pete Potter participated as an expert in his Held of marketing. Last May Colonel John S. Mayer, U.S.A. Reserve (Jack to you) received the Army Certificate of Achievement at ceremonies in New York City. Jack was one of the first officers to activate the Army Reserve Corps. Forgot to mention among the other accolades, that Sherm Adams was made honorary chairman of National Music Week and in this capacity presented the members of the Dartmouth Glee Club to Ike at the time of their concert in Washington. Any Hi-Fy addicts who object to their recordings, complain to Sherm.

Charlie McGoughran has been appointed to the Board of Overseers of Amos Tuck School. The affairs of Tuck should be well oiled now. George Page has successfully recuperated from another operation at the local hospital. This time he lost only a cyst.

The Strattons and the Southwicks have been seen gracing the porch of the Hanover Inn this summer and Bud Weymouth reports that Ben, B. M. Farnsworth, Rog Pope and Howie Hitchcock have sought his advice at the information booth. On being asked if wives were along also Bud replied, "I don't know but they had some women with them." Oh well!

At this time all members of the class pause to send their belated condolences to Marianne Small and her family. It is our hope that Red recognized the Doctor of Science degree which the College conferred on him in June.
