Big news in the baby department this month comes from Dean and Eunice Nicholson of Lexington, Mass. Their announcement card pictures a little Indian and reads "Rain-in-Pants, Small New Papoose! Papoose name, Emily Ann; birthday January 22, 1958; weight 7 lbs. 8 oz." This papoose joins another little Indian named Adelle Roberta Nicholson who is about 6 years old. Dean is a lawyer and accountant, and has his own office in Boston. His wife is the former Eunice Alberts of Brookline, Mass.
Charles B. Thompson ("Chick" Thompson, not to be confused with Dr. Charles "Roe" Thompson of Albuquerque, N. M.) left Richmond, Va., in December for the more northerly climate of Montclair, N. J. In June 1936, Charlie went to work for the Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Co., an operating unit of The American Telephone & Telegraph Co. in Washington, D. C. He has worked for them ever since, except for a four-year hitch in the Navy. He and his wife and two daughters, Mary Wells, age 7, and Sally 5, now live at 28 College Avenue, Upper Montclair. Charlie is a general accountant in the comptrollers office of American Telephone & Telegraph in New York. He's in charge of personnel and administration. I suggested to Charlie that he look up Dick Holt and Shaw Carter both of whom, I believe, work for the same company and are in the same building on lower Broadway.

The Metcalfs live in a little town called Cooper's Mills, Me. It is on the map about midway between Augusta and Rockland. They have a seventeenth century home that they've restored. They keep a few animals including a bull and a rabbit, and also have two children, Helen Ann age 14 and Jonathan 10.
The snow has been deep on the Dartmouth Campus this year, but it hasn't kept '36ers away. Brad Chase gets over to the Inn frequently from Portland, Me. Larry Jump made the trip from Georgetown, Colo. Jim Buyoucos from Ithaca, N. Y., Ed Higbee from Hingham, Mass., and Prof. Joe Bishop of the Yale Law School went up to Hanover for a few days. Bill and Pat Hoffmann enjoyed the College again while Bill interviewed seniors who are interested in starting a banking career with the Fidelity Union Trust Co. of Newark, N. J. Bob Blades and his wife from Hornell, N. Y., and Bob MacPherson and his wife from Framingham, Mass., were also at the Hanover Inn for a while during the deep of winter. Art and Ethel Toan from Saddle River, N. J., spent a few days in Hanover while Art, an expert on electronic accounting, lectured at Tuck School. After his graduation in 1936, Art joined Price Waterhouse & Co., and has been associated with them ever since. He is now a partner. He is a C.P.A., a member of the American Institute of Accountants and other professional societies. He is on the Institute's Committee of Electronic Accounting and is active on the Financial Planning Council of the American Management Association. Art has spoken and written extensively on the principles of organization, clerical methods, electronics and other business topics.
