Now that our glorious 55th Reunion is over let’s make plans for the 60th with the hope that all classmates who could not be with us in June will plan now to join us on the campus in 1967. Time is sure running out so why not make the most of it before it is too late!

Charles Woodworth’s sister, Grace W. Hill, has embroidered a most attractive picture (sampler) of the Old Moosilaukee Summit House which has been framed and is now being hung in the Cabin and Trail Room of the Outing Club House. You will recall that the Woodworth family gave the Summit House to the college. Isn’t this very interesting.

XlllX/J. voimg. , “Harold L. Niles, ‘Bishop to us. Wins Real Estate Oscar.” The Brokers’ Institute, Greater Boston Real Estate Board has sub- mitted the following release to the Town- man, Wellesley, Mass.:

Realtor Harold L. Niles of Niles Cos., Inc. in Brookline and Cambridge, Mass., has been hon- ored by the real estate industry. The award is presented to the realtor who in the opinion of a board of judges has shown unusual interest in civic and community affairs and whose business efforts have served to improve the professional standards of the Greater Boston Real Estate Board. Mr Niles, the Council "D" winner who lives in Wellesley, is one of the most respected veteran members of the Greater Boston real estate indus- try. His civic, community, and professional ac- complishments are endless. Most recently he was instrumental in getting land rezoned in Wellesley to provide for building housing for elderly citi- zens. Mr. Niles' interest has been just as intense in improving the lot of youngsters. He serves as a member of the fund raising committee of the Hill- side School for Boys now striving to build a new gym He is active in church, fraternal, and political affairs, and has held responsible positions in the real estate industry.

Bishop, this is very commendable. Con- gratulations. ,T . _

Bill Ahem of Concord, N. H., after re- turning home safely from our 55th reunion fell just as he was going into his home and broke his hip, with the result that he has spent the summer months in the Concord Hospital and the Eagle Convalescent Center. Harriet says that he is doing nicely using a walker and sits in a chair by the window where he can look out on the State House, and can keep tabs on all the political activi- ties. The break was similar to Winston Churchill’s.

A LtA VIIIJ A w ■ Harry Pelrcn also had the misfortune of breaking his hip on July 8, had it pinned three days later at the Concord Hospital and is doing nicely.

George Liscomb entered St. Joseph’s Hos- pital in Nashua, N. H., on August 3 and his internal operation was a complete suc- cess, Fern says. .

Sam Bartlett was operated on June 19 in New York City and came home June 26 feeling like a “new man.” Wonderful but the question is: Who will be next? «... Y TO C Ti.'eitarl rcilotn/AC IT!
