1922

Global gleanings this month from our national and international correspondents - for once mostly from the provinces outside New England.

Every Twoter would have been there if he possibly could - 47 of our clan gathered with 2200 other Men of Dartmouth on February 5 at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York to honor Prexy-Emeritus Ernest Martin Hopkins. Twoters there were:

Len and Grace Bernheim, Harry Bruckner, Bill and Odie Lee Bullen, Chick and Josephine Busher, Pop and Alice Clewell, Jack and Fran Dodd, Cecil and Edith Goldbeck, Bert and Dorothy Hauser, Frank and Betty Horan, Gene Hotchkiss, Johnny Johnson, Steve and Vi Kenyon, Killie and Betty Kilmarx, Phil Kimball, Dan Kincaid, Andy and Charlotte Marshall, Stan and Catherine Miner, Will Nicholson, Olie Olsen, Had Pinney, Bill and Gene Rex, Ted and Beth Robie, Walt and Doris Sands, Bill and Dorothy Shirley, Sterry and Frances Waterman, Cliff and Madelaine Watson with daughter and son-in-law Lloyd J. Krumm, and Ben Wilson.

Jack Dodd was chairman of the National Invitation Committee, Bill Bullen and Will Nicholson were members of the National Sponsoring Committee and our class arrangements including a pre-dinner get-together in the Crane Suite were under the guidance of Johnny Johnson. A fine gathering of the clan on a most impressive occasion.

Classmate Robert M. Dewey is leaving Chicago and flying down to Rio. Bob has been elected vice president of American Motorists Insurance Co. and has been named manager of the company's operations in Rio de Janeiro. Congratulations, Bob.

The clan is saddened by the report and extends its deep sympathy to Red Boyd whose wife Gertrude passed away in Chattanooga some months ago. Red and Gertrude were married in 1923. Their two children are Barbara Ann and Llewellyn, Dartmouth '50.

Roving correspondent Gene Hotchkiss reports wide coverage. He has recently talked with Hal Frederick, our erstwhile Seattle representative now in Spokane for many years, and Bob Baldwin, one of our Springfield, Mass., pillars. Both these eastern and western members of the clan are said to be in good fettle. Gene has also received a welcomed letter from Don Donavanick, our dean of Dartmouth men in Thailand. Don wishes more Twoters would drop in to see him in Bangkok. Can any classmate arrange a tax deductible trip to the Orient? Don would like to see you.

Thanks to our Dr. Gaylord W. Anderson, Mayo Professor and Director of the School of Public Health, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, all Twoters can share in a fine tribute to Classmate Jim Hamilton. Jim was saluted in the December issue of Hospital Management Magazine as follows:

James Alexander Hamilton is a man of parts. Director and professor of the course in Hospital Administration at the University of Minnesota, he is also the head of James A. Hamilton Associates, the well-known consulting firm in the hospital field. Mr. Hamilton is a teacher of the highest order and his influence in the development of hospital administration has been felt both here and abroad. He is held in high esteem by his students and graduates, an esteem almost bordering on worship. He is an international figure of note who has lectured in various countries outside of the United States where his opinion is respected as much as it is in this country. His background and experience have fitted him admirably to teach the science of hospital administration.

He was an administrator for 20 years having served successively as superintendent of the Mary Hitchcock Hospital in Hanover, N. H., The City Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio, and the New Haven Hospital in New Haven, Conn., where he also held the position of professor of hospital administration at Yale University.

James Alexander Hamilton came to hospital administration from the business field. He graduated from the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration at Dartmouth College in 1923 and remained there as assistant professor of industrial management until 1936. Himself an athlete of note, he also functioned as assistant graduate manager of athletics at Dartmouth.

He has held the presidency of both the American College of Hospital Administrators (1939) and the American Hospital Association (1942). In addition he has served many other associations in the health field as president and in various other capacities which are too numerous to mention. He has been consulted frequently by the Federal and several state governments and during World War II served as consultant to the War Production Board and as a member of the Advisory Committee to the Public Health Service Cadet Nurse Program. He has been a consultant to the Budget Bureau of the Executive Office of the President of the United States since 1942. Truly he has been an excellent example of a good hospital administrator. As a lecturer at institutes and conventions, he has no peer. His presentations of abstract subjects like management and human relations hold audiences spellbound and his lectures at Columbia, Northwestern, Chicago, Duke, California and other universities never fail to draw the maximum attendance.

One of his lesser known activities is in the field of philanthropy where he prefers that his good works be shrouded in anonymity. He received the Award of Merit of the American Hospital Association "for his outstanding contributions to the advancement of the association and hospitals everywhere." With this salute Hospital Management is proud to acknowledge this great man and to record his contribution to the hospital field for posterity.

And the class of '22 is mighty proud to have you as one of us, Jim. From our Judge F. Anthony Hanlon - Tony to us — comes the good news that his wife Eleanor is successfully and rapidly convalescing from recent illness.

o Only one disturbing note occurred in a delightful evening the scribe and spouse spent recently at the friendly fireside of Rayand Doris Atwood. Ray resurrected a picture of the Deke delegation of '22. Gosh, did everybody look that young in those days? And even the hefty football players looked slender.

Camp Campbell down to Hanover from Barre, Vt., and Bill and Odie Lee Bullen were recent guests at the Hanover Inn. One all-important reason for the Bullen's visit: To see their new grandson, Wilbur Warren Bullen 3rd.

Always considered Twoters paid rent regularly and weren't at odds with landlords. Yet they do seem to move about more than the older generation. Get out the little green book again for eleven new addresses: John R. Aborn, 26 Patterson St., Providence 6, R. I.: James V. Carroll, 20 Park Ave., New York 16, N. Y.; Charles S. Hopkins, 118-15th St., Belleair Beach, Indian Rocks Beach, Fla.; Winthrop DeF. Piper, 49 Spring Road. Weston 93, Mass.; C. Truman Redfield, 227 North LaSalle St., Chicago 1, Ill.; Van A. Shem, 1242 Lexington Ave., New York, N. Y.; Wayne Shirley, 2400 Sedgwick Ave., Derby 14-B, New York. 68, N. Y.; N. Osborne Siegfried, Siegfried Construction Co., 6 North Pearl St., Buffalo 2, N. Y. or 6 Lexington Ave., Buffalo 22, N. Y.; Lawrence F. Snow, Matachic, Chihuahua, Mexico; George F. Spiel, 320 South Green Bay Road, Lake Forest, Ill.; and Harold W. Tucker, 109 Hewen Place, Daytona Beach, Fla. Envy (Miami 360?) to those in the Southland - New Hampshire has three feet of snow right now - and good luck to all in your new locations.

Not too late yet - but soon will be — to arrange for coming back to Hanover for our Twoters' annual little reunion on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, March 13, 14, 15. Come entourage or solo, if you can get permission. But forget the tranquilizers - won't need them. We'll have that "Glad but subdued festiveness" fittin' for our ulcers. Get in touch with the Hanover Inn now - some folks even use that new fangled contraption, the telephone - to make reservations.

Robert M. Dewey '22 has been elected VicePresident of the American Motorists Insurance Co. He has taken over as new managerof the company's office in Rio de Janeiro.
