Class Reunion - The 65thHanover, June 12, 13, 14
The writer of this column has in front of him what he wrote five years am, for the month of May 1954. Now, as then, the approaching five-year Reunion drives out all other thought. Then Eddie Grover encouraged us by this simple word: "I expect to see you in Hanover in June." Eddie now writes: Give my greetings to the Class and tell them that I will do my darndest to be at the 65th in Hanover June 12-14."
The Reunion Committee held a meeting in Boston March 18 with four of the seven members present. Distance kept the other three away. As a result of this meeting a letter has gone out to the '94 Family making some suggestions about what the program is likely to be These need not be repeated here though it may be of interest to other of the later classes to find that emphasis is laid on one Big Day which will be Saturday, Tune 13. The usual Class Dinner will be held at one o'clock.
Letters from the eleven living members of the Class indicate that only one is certain he cannot come. If the other ten are able to make it we shall have a percentage of 90.9.
In the column five year ago the figures of attendance of graduates at all previous reunions was given. The following figures include our 1954 Reunion.
