TALLY-HO MOUNTAIN VIEW JUNE SIXTY-TWO

There has been a practice-round or two this fall in Hanover getting ready for the pilgrimage to Whitefield next June. Football and foliage (which was a big disappointment) brought Syd and Barbara Beane, Jackand Grace Crooks, Helen Harris and daughter Sandra, Bar and Madge Locke, Walt andTib Reilly, Bob and Kae Sanderson, Chuband Katherine Sterling. Slim and SybylEaton made their postponed reunion trip and to show Fred's wife Hanover in the fall. Fred was '41. Jack and Dorothy Steeves were looking Hanover over as a possible residential site. Jack Crooks and Grace have the unique record of both having attended every 1911 reunion including the third. Try and find a more enthusiastic Dartmouth man anywhere.

The Sandersons left Pittsfield for their Florida home in time to spend their son's birthday with him at Quantico where John is in the Marines. Son Larry was married on September 16 to Cynthia Sue LeBrun. He received his degree at St. Anselm's in June and is now in the active Air Force National Guard stationed in Manchester, N. H.

Dutch Whitman has had to return to the hospital for treatment for his arthritis but here is hoping he will be back home before the news reaches you.

"Campus Extends Tribute to Coach" is the headline in the "Maine Campus" announcing Chet Jenkins' death. At Orono they have started the "Chester Jenkins Memorial Fund" which is to go into the Auditorium Building which Chet was so anxious for the University to have. Helen wrote that his death was so sudden; he went to bed after watching TV as usual and with no discomfort of any kind, but in the early morning suffered a massive occlusion from which he died before the doctor could reach him.

A letter from Dorothy Bowker brings word of Carl's being badly injured in a head-on automobile collision when a young lad tried to cross in front of him. He had a slight concussion, broken knee cap, and various cuts and bruises.

A new Boston Port Collector has been named by President Kennedy to succeed Maynard Hutchinson who served for two terms after his appointment by President Eisenhower.

Explain it any way you wish but ChuckBush is living in the same house but has a new address, Chase Ave., West Dennis, Mass. Boliver Sherwin has become a resident of New Hampshire and may be addressed at 5 Wilbrod Ave., Dover. McGregor Hamilton, unheard from for years, has turned up at 10 Emerson Road, Wellesley Hills, Mass.

A card from Laniel, Quebec, which is 200 miles south of Arbiti explains that EltNorris, with a sixteen-year-old companion, had broken camp at the latter place and was on his way back to civilization. He has a camp on an island there and shares it with some youngster each summer.

Art and Rebecca Shepherd have sold their house in New Boston, N. H., and bought another in Amherst, N. H., which is a few miles nearer Boston. They are going to spend the winter with Curlie Jackson in Winchester, Mass.

Marion Gibson is authority for the statement that the fog prevented any good cruising this summer but that the "Gibby" was on the way to Florida where she and Les would get aboard. Lyme Armes '12 is again going to join them.

From Marjorie McGlaughlin come these pleasant words: "It was a glorious reunion and the memory will ever be sweet. We expect to leave Glens Falls at end of month (September) with no plans beyond Birmingham, as yet, but it will be where the Mac is happy."

Betty Curtis has moved from St. Petersburg to nearby Gulfport, Fla., where her address is 2304 Beach Boulevard.

After a quiet summer in Chicago the Gene Fullers are on the move again. They made a tour around Lake Michigan to see the fall colors which were very lovely but still not as beautiful as New England, Catherine writes. However, actually the fall foliage was a big disappointment to us New Englanders this fall. Gene says plans for the winter are indefinite but may well include a trip to Florida. We hope so.

Ruth Hastings got home to Los Altos on June 30, to find "every bush and flower burned to a crisp" but she would not have missed reunion. She enjoys Pat's "Leven Up," thinks that he writes a good line, is very humorous and gives a lot of news but she is a bit peeved at him that he referred to her as living in Los Angeles rather than Los Altos. My heart grieves for him making such a stupid error as that!

Among the news from Julia Dunning, her son Stephen has been made an associate professor at Duke University and she plans to visit there this winter and we hope that it will be on her way to Florida. Her great disappointment was her inability to make the reunion last June.

There was a record number at the 1911 pre-Harvard game dinner at the University Club on October 27. The eighteen plus one son was far in excess of all contemporary classes. Here they were Burleigh, JoshClark, Jack Crooks, Howard Dunham, LesGibson, Chick Jordan, Wee Kimball and son David '49, Jake Lovejoy, Shorty Mayo,Spim Norris, Pat Partridge, Stick Pendleton,Hen Seaver, Bob Sanderson, Art Winship,Al Wheeler, Henry Smith and Jack Steeves. There was much visiting and swapping of yarns and Stick was in his old time form at the piano. News items were confined to rather mundane matters except for the announcement of the marriage of Josh's son Theodore '47 on October 17 to Miss Gail Gentile in Brockton, Mass. Ted is the director of a psychopathic clinic in a Springfield hospital. Henry Smith's address is 402 Main St., Medfield instead of 42. The Crooks, Gibsons, and Sandersons will be leaving soon to winter in Florida to be joined by the Mayos in St. Petersburg in March. And oh yes Al Wheeler has another granddaughter.

In October 1911 lost another man who had spent his life trying to improve the lot of his fellow-men. Carroll Jones had established a national reputation as a psychologist working with mentally retarded boys. We extend our sympathy to his wife and children in the loss of a loyal Dartmouth alumnus.
