Jim and Connie Tomlinson were unofficial hosts at our fall reunion on the Holy Cross game weekend. After a relatively quiet Friday evening with them and with Ben andSally Drew your aging correspondent dragged himself off to bed. Along about midnight straggling '32ers began to build up a storm in the Tomlinson suite, fortunately spacious, and by one o'clock or so the joint was jumping. This impromptu gathering included the John Wolffs, the Ray Bartletts, Ed Marks, the Wally Rushmores, the Bill Liesons, the Buzz Burrows, and the Marv Chandlers. The party was amply supplied with scotch and apples (Ben Drew advt.).
Bob and Nancy Reinhardt and Dick andHelen Olmsted attended the game and were at Bonnie Oaks for dinner on Saturday. Also present at dinner was Rhoda (Mrs. John)Clark whom Ed Marks and your correspondent shanghied from Mary Hitchcock Hospital where she was visiting a daughter and son both undergoing treatment. The boy, a fine lad almost ready for college, recently suffered a serious spinal injury in an automobile accident.
Missing this year were most of the youngsters, Lieson and Burrows being the only ones your correspondent noted who apparently deemed their offspring hardy enough to withstand a football game reunion. Spotted at the game were Jim Miller, DekeCampbell, Harry Rowe and Bus Sails. There may have been others present who, if they will please write an indignant letter to the secretary, will have their names duly mentioned in this column.
On the following Saturday our Class was honored with a most cordial invitation from the Harvard Class of '32 to join them in a football game luncheon in Harvard Stadium immediately preceding the game. Johnny Fish in Boston took charge of getting out notices and negotiating the necessary arrangements, for which we all owe him a hearty vote of thanks. According to John's report the Harvard hospitality was thoroughly enjoyed by his own party of six, also the Ben Drews, the Bob Buckleys, the Bill Allyns and the Bob Morrisons. Some members of adjacent Dartmouth classes helped fill out the complement.
From Ing (Mrs. Charlie) Mayo we have the story of a giant tuna caught by son Stormy. The story datelined July 18 describes how young Stormy, seventeen, landed the first Cape Cod tuna of the season caught by rod and reel. When brought in it measured nearly eight feet in length and six feet in girth and weighed 421 pounds. Stormy, besides working on his father's crew, is doing other work for the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute in connection with a study of the tuna's migratory habits.
George Blaesi writes that in the recent primary election he was named Republican candidate from the town of Orford to the New Hampshire State Legislature, along with the naming of Bob Monahan '29 as Republican candidate for Senator from the county. Unfortunately the inflexible deadline for this copy does not permit announcing whether our earnest hope for George's political triumph was rewarded with success.
Larry Burtis has dropped us a line saying that he and Bernice now have their home in Chicago with their three children still of school age. Larry is insurance agent for Connecticut General Life in Chicago.
Leon Warner writes from Minneapolis that he saw Bill Bennett and Jack Whitcomb in Atlantic City during October, and that he flew home with Jack .as a guest of 3-M. He complains that Jim Tomlinson was in the Twin Cities recently and failed to look him up. Your correspondent happened to learn, however, that Tomlinson did run into Whit-comb there (possibly some crass commercial interest, since they are both in the abrasives business) and Jim's report was that despite a little added weight Jack never looked better.
Leon, who is president of his company, says it's a bit tough making money in the hard line merchandising business these days and he has no trouble getting rid of it. One daughter is taking postgraduate work at the University of Minnesota, another is a junior at Smith, and a third attends Miss Hall's School. The Warners also have a thirteenyear-old son, Leon III
An innovation much appreciated by all of us was Bill Lieson's personal note accompanying the annual bill for dues. The substance of any responses Bill receives will be included in this column to the extent that space is available. Any overflow will be lateraled to Carl Baker for possible use in the Newsletter. Following are some of the items received to date.
Art Alien expressed his regret for being unable at the last moment to attend our fall reunion because both his parents, who were visiting with him, were suddenly taken ill. After doing all the spade work and making the arrangements, Art was pleased to learn that the Executive Committee voted the occasion a success and worthy of continuation next year.
Fritz Browning reports that their oldest son William was married on September 10 to Penny Sue Canlon. The couple are now living in White River in order that Bill may finish at Dartmouth this year.
Tom Lott, a partner of the legal firm of Watson, Lott and Wunsch in Detroit, reports that his son is now an enthusiastic member of Dartmouth '64.
Red and Gladys Tucker were scheduled to return to Oklahoma City late in October following a month's European tour. They spent a week in Paris, motored leisurely south through Bavaria, Switzerland, and Italy, visited Libya for four days, and finished off with a week in Rome.
Ed Marks reports that he and Margaret were at the Harvard game for the first time in many years, and that they saw the Drews, Fishes and Maxwells. Ed says Jerry Altman has been in Europe visiting Paris and Rome, among other places.
John Weston, still running his own livestock and pulpwood business in Fryeburg, Me., says that he now has a granddaughter Susanne Marie Gordon, his daughter Grace's child. His son George is a freshman at the University of New Hampshire. John says his extracurricular activities keep him pretty busy. These include filling such posts as chairman of the Maine State Harness Racing Commission, trustee of Fryeburg Academy, trustee of Fryeburg Fair, and vice president of a bank in North Conway, N. H.
Commodore Jim Moore sailed oft with the Black Jack Trophy as top pilot in Manhasset Bay's Fall Race Series, guiding his Lure to three firsts and a second in the Resolute Class. He also received the Edward P. Alker Trophy for the top Manhasset Bay club-member performance. Jim says if business only went as well as the boat all would be well.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.
