If it were possible, we too would fly our flag at half-mast out of respect for a loyal classmate.

He was a member of the Southern New York Fish and Game Association and the Green Heart Rod and Gun Club.
Berk had not attended Class functions in recent years, but we knew by his regular participation in the Alumni Fund that he was still interested in Dartmouth. The Class here records its sense of loss in his passing, deepened with the knowledge that his is the fourth death recorded in the month of February.
ALBERT O. TROSTEL JR., a prominent Milwaukee industrialist, died February 2 in Abbott Hospital, Minneapolis, where he had gone for treatment. His death resulted from complications following an operation he had undergone to improve blood circulation. He lived at 2911 West Bradley Road in Milwaukee.
Al had been president of Albert Trostel & Sons, one of the world's largest tanning companies, since 1936, following five years' service as its general manager. He was the third generation of his family to head the company founded by his grandfather in 1858. In its centennial year Al commissioned an artist to do a series of paintings depicting "Art in Tanning," which that year were exhibited at the Milwaukee Art Center. In 1938 while on a European trip he became convinced that war was ahead and sent word home urging the company to convert much of its facilities from the production of calfskin, to side leather for shoe uppers. As the result, when war came, the company was prepared and the great majority of combat boots worn by United States soldiers were made of Trostel leather. It is said that two days' current production of the company is equal to the 1931 annual volume.
Al was president-elect of the Tanners Council of America, a director of the Jos. Schlitz Brewing Company, the head of several related family enterprises, a member of the Greater Milwaukee Committee, and a member of several Milwaukee clubs. In the early thirties he was secretary of the Dartmouth Alumni Association of Wisconsin.

On February 2, after a lingering illness, death came to EDWARD CHAMBERLIN WARREN, one of the best-known and most respected members of 1930. Death was the result of a losing fight against amoebic dysentery complicated by a serious pancreatic ailment.
Ed was born in Bogota, N. J., on Decem -26 1907. He came to Dartmouth from Phillips Andover Academy, and previously had attended La Chataigneraie in Switzerland and White Plains High School. He conimied through the fifth year in Hanover, graduating from Tuck School in 1931. His fraternity was Phi Kappa Sigma. After graduation he maintained a live interest in Dartmouth and was assistant class agent for several years.
Ed's entire career was spent in the field of magazine advertising and most recently he was associated with Scholastic Magazine. Previously he had been with House Beautiful Parents Magazine, Good Housekeeping and McGraw-Hill. We think Ed would want this anecdote told: At the annual dinners of the Tuck School Clearing House it is customary to ask each man to rise, give his name class, and name of his employer. For several years after World War 11, Ed used to delight in, and draw a big hand for, his response; "Ed Warren, Tuck '3l, The American Girl" - then his employer.
Ed was drafted in World War II and rose to a captaincy before its conclusion. He had some unenviable assignments, including training illiterate troops in the South, and fumigating prisoners of war both in this country and later in England and Germany.
Late in 1945 he married Josephine Roper of Petersburg, Virginia, who survives him with their children, Edward C. Jr., 15, D'Arcy Paul, 12, and Josephine Bartlett, 7. An older brother, Charles, also survives. The family home is in Chappaqua, New York.
On behalf of all Ed's classmates, the sympathy of 1930 is extended to Jo and their children, who will know that we will miss his friendly presence in future class meetings, particularly at the semi-annual dinners of the New York group.

He was moved to Bridgeport as state manager for Calvert, returned to Boston as regional manager, and then transferred to Florida as southern division manager.
Both his work and his family seem to have given Syd tremendous rewards in per- sonal happiness.
George Goodman, who knew Syd well, writes as follows: "Turning the clock back, I remember Syd as a fellow-worker in Commons.. We waited on table together; he was always of high spirit and genial demeanor with many friends. Maybe most of us remember him as a basketball player. I recall the fine team we had our senior year. ... We knew him, we respected him, we admired him. I know that everyone of us will miss him."
