1938

Another real big deal of the past summer. ... Eight pounds and one ounce worth ... was the birth of Robert Winser to Mr. and Mrs. Donald Boyle of Garden City, L. I., N. Y. Peep-hole journalism is not the intent of this columnist, but I'm sure that the new father and mother (new for the fifth time) will tolerate a little speculation. Little Robbie's Mother comes from a Princeton background. You know about his Daddy. Well, just about the right number of months before Robbie was born Princeton and Dartmouth had a football game at Princeton, N. J. Dartmouth won. Maybe Marie Boyle didn't like the idea? Maybe Don did? Maybe there was a family quarrel after the game? Anyway, we know they made up.

Chairman and President of the Custommade Paper Bag Co. of Long Island City, N. Y., with branches in Illinois and California, is Tom Richmond. With wife Ginny and sons, Lee, Tom and Pete, Big Tom makes his home at 17 Oriole Avenue, Bronxville, N. Y. Tom hears from Chic Mock, who is pretty much of a world traveler, and the paper executive looks to the day when he can retire as a tree farmer in the Berkshires.

Fran Mooney of South Main Street, Farmington, N. H., never had it so good, and apparently he counts his blessings. Here's the way he puts it: "Just a nobody, but what fun doing what I want, when I want and where I want. I have good health, a wonderful wife, five healthy, normal children, a large house with ten acres of land, a lovely garden, and a cottage on Lake Winnipesaukee with two motorboats."

Fran is president and general manager of G. F. Mooney and Son, Inc. On the side he farms, flies and, of course, motorboats. The Mooney gang includes wife Mildred, three daughters, Jean, Cathy and Norma Jean, and two sons, Jim and Larry.

Blair Morrissey is resident manager of United States Steel Export Company, Windsor, Ontario. He and Betty have three children, Blair, Richard and Janet. The family summers at Georgian Bay near Parry Island with a little winter skiing near home.

Like I say, we don't peep-hole in this column, and we don't get into politics ... unless it's one of our own guys we're talking about ... and I regret to say I'm a month late in blowing this good horn. It involves a guy who was born in New York in 1917. His Dad was an Assemblyman in the Sixth District. He was graduated in Hanover with us and then got that Barrister's Beanie at Harvard. Into the Army a Private and out a Captain, he was. Married swell. Kiddies: two. I hope you Gothamites voted for him.... Gerry Ullman, the Unbossed politician. Gerry has had a great record in the service of his state, and he has won the friendship and acclaim of Governor Nelson Rockefeller '30 ... who will succeed John Kennedy in the White House. (There's a Democrat someplace inside this typewriter.)

Other areas of the country could take a page from the Cleveland Dartmouth Club book ... and I say this as one who has seen our clubs around the circuit. Sandy Mills of our Class is President of the Club this year and, as I see it, things are done right... good enrollment and interviewing programs; scheduled seasonal, social functions; a weekly meeting of men at lunch and open-arms cooperation with Dartmouth Coaches who visit to canvass in this area. January will be big for Cleveland this coming year when the Alumni Council meets here.

That's about all for now. Good luck, fellows.
