Secretary of the Year

The honor of being the 1962 Class Secretary of the Year was bestowed on WesleyH. Beattie '33 (left) at the annual spring gathering of Dartmouth class officers in Hanover last month. Sidney C. Hayward '26, Secretary of the College, made the award with the following citation:

It is a very special pleasure to honor Wes Beattie of the Class of 1933 for a variety of activities carried out with distinction in behalf of the College. Ever since your graduation you have served in one Dartmouth capacity or another - often several at the same time.

You achieved a successful business career following graduation from Tuck School, in banking, investments, and the chemical industry - since 1946 with George Mann and Company of Boston and Providence.

In Dartmouth activities you are widely known among Dartmouth men in Eastern Massachusetts as a former president of the Dartmouth Alumni Association of Boston. You have been secretary of your class of '33 for the past four years, doing an outstanding job of co-ordinating many class projects, describing the news of the class in your faithful Alumni Magazine column, and in all respects the model of a Model Class Secretary. You have always been active as an enrollment and admissions worker in your home town of Melrose. . . . As a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve you are giving freely of your time and energy to the national welfare.

With deep appreciation and congratulations, we salute you as the Dartmouth Class Secretary of the Year.
