1906

The Anglo-Canadian-American Convocation, held in Hanover the first week in September, was an outstanding event. Eight members of the class were present and were well repaid for making the trip. Gus Ayers came on from San Francisco and Nat Lever-one from Chicago. The others present were Childs, Gordon, Guyer, Parker, Redman and Russell. Everyone should read the report on the Convocation in the October issue. And if you did, you will have seen that Thurlow Gordon was one of the alumni who received an Alumni Award at the Friday night meeting.

In making the award, Guy Wallick, president of the Dartmouth Alumni Council, read the following citation:

"Thurlow M. Gordon '06, Summa Cum Laude and valedictorian of your class, it was clear from the start that you were one with a mind that would thrive on vigorous exercise. Harvard Law School was a good warming up, and you soon found the challenge you needed for your mental muscle by applying the lever of logic to work as the Special Assistant to the Attorney General working on anti-trust cases. You also worked for the Federal Trade Commission and in 1917 you entered private law practice in New York. Now. as a senior member of Cahill, Gordon, Reindel and Ohl, your advice is in demand by the nation's business leaders concerning mergers, intercorporate relations and sales policies. Your own personal merger with the affairs of Dartmouth has been long cemented and happy. You have been both Memorial Fund and Bequest Chairman of your class, and you served as Chairman of the Dartmouth Development Council. Your Dartmouth colleagues everywhere are proud to present you with this Alumni Award."

While in Hanover Thurlow, Norm, and I visited Halsey Edgerton and were very much pleased to find him looking and feeling tiptop.

Early in the summer Ruth and Jack Kingsbury left Myrtle Beach on a 2700 mile trip along the eastern seaboard, to visit their children and relatives. They stopped on the way north to visit the Jamestown Exposition, which they said was most interesting and instructive. In New Rochelle, N. Y„ they visited Jack's sister. To make Jack feel at home she took him to see the monkeys at the Bronx Zoo.

In Berlin, Conn., they visited their son David '45 and four grandchildren. From there they went to Albany, N. Y., to visit Jack's sister, Esther, whom many of us met at our graduation. On their way back home they stopped in Wheeling, W. Va., to visit with three more of their grandchildren. Sounds like a Cook's tour of America but it must have given them both a great deal of pleasure.

" Dan Carr is in the Hampshire Nursing Home, Haverhill, N. H.. after having spent thirteen weeks in the hospital. Says he is improving slowly but his doctor will not lei him live alone.

Freddie Walsh has moved to Rainbow Court, 1159 Clearwater Road, Largo, Fla.

Hilda and Lyman Frazier spent their annual tall vacation at the Hanover Inn, the first part of September.

Corrinne and Charlie Luck were in Detroit the last of September visiting their son David '34. They expect to set sail for a two months' trip to some enchanted land, the last of December.

The Class will be sorry to hear that Florence Herr passed away at the some of her son Edward on September 24.
