1950
Last spring the final notations on 1950 activities were completed while we attended meetings in Hanover, and this column emanates from New Hampshire also. We are enjoying two weeks in Deering, about twenty miles from Manchester, and find the early September days are as delightful as you remember their being ten years ago. Our enthusiasm may be slightly exaggerated due to a surprise birdie on the last hole today, a five iron chip from 40 feet away!
As usual, autumn arrives with a good backlog of information collected on various aspects of class news. Lest the old traditions fail, we'll start at....
THE HITCHING POST

DIAPER DIGEST
A most impressive array of new and almostnew arrivals graces our column this month. Some of the infants are toddlers by now but to keep the records straight we'll try to catch up at once.

Another yearling is Francesca Ward Taylor, daughter of Dave and Orian Taylor. Boband Constance Foster had their third child, Steven, on August 27, 1957.

All of them are admiring a hard won trophy goat's head Ed got on a hunting trip recently with a fellow employee of Kaiser Aluminum in Spokane where Ed is an industrial engineer.
Third son for Hammy and Anita Gates arrived February 16 and was named Philip Bradford. That takes care of the forward line, Hammy, now how about two defensemen and a goalie? Latest addition to the Bill and Judy Cross household is John Cummings Cross born July 6, weighing eight pounds and a half. When we met the lad in early August he had quantities of black hair and said "Wah Hoo Wah."
