There are presently five widows now listed in our active file for this class. They are: Mrs. D. Lindsey Beauschamp, Mrs. Thomas P. Hurst, Mrs. Gilbert H. Tricco, Mrs. Richmond VandenHeuvel, and Mrs. Charles Mougey. In the future, the wife of any deceased classmate, upon his death, will automatically be placed on the active list for a period of two years. If, during this time, a continued interest in the College is shown, she will remain on the active list. We hope in this way to strengthen the ties of the Dartmouth family with those widows who have expressed an interest in the College.
