Paris

Starting the year with a burst of activity, the Dartmouth Club of Paris (France) hosted President Dickey for dinner at the "Golden" Cercle Interallie on March 16.

Attended by forty enthusiastic alumni, friends and prospective freshmen, the affair was a great success. President Dickey delivered an informal report on his trip to Poland, just completed, to an enthralled audience.

During cocktails and after dinner a good many stories of life at Dartmouth were of course exchanged. President Dickey gave us some idea of the changes taking place in Hanover and stressed the future challenge facing the liberal arts college.

The Honorable S. Pinkney Tuck '13 and former Club President Horton Kennedy '18, our two most illustrious alumni in town, as President Herb Fish '29 rightly expressed it in a spirited introduction speech, reaffirmed for all of us our gratitude to President Dickey for what he is doing and our great pleasure in having him with us.

Hard on the heels of this successful affair we decided that our next meeting would be held May 17. We shall meet at 7 for cocktails at the residence of Horton Kennedy, and a dinner will be served at 8:30 at the near-by "Racing Club de France."

We hope that our invitation to Dartmouth men in France to join us will be heard and that we can count on them in the future.

As each year goes by the Paris Club is becoming a more dynamic group of Dartmouth men; let us keep going with the spirit, enthusiasm and warmth which President Dickey imparted to us.
