Hong Kong

On Thursday, January 3, some twenty Hong Kong schoolboys joined club members and their wives at the new City Hall for color films of Dartmouth and Robert Frost. Robert A. Aylward '37 and Club President Dr. Francis K. Pan '26 gave talks emphasizing the benefits of the small college (i.e. Dartmouth) for foreign students. A lively question and discussion period ensued over tea and goodies in the City Hall restaurant. The quality and number of the boys who turned out for the meeting were heartening, and it looks as if Hong Kong will provide Dartmouth with some impressive applicants.

Following the recruitment session Francis K. Pan entertained members and wives to a feast celebrating Dartmouth's undefeated championship. Full of victorious imbibings and praise for the Big Green, all joined in a toast which, if not heard in every land, was at least heard in every corner of the restaurant. Raising their glasses high were, Lin-Yi Ho '11; Thomas F. M. Fung '27; the Bartlett H. Stoodleys '29 teaching sociology at Chung Chi on leave from Wellesley; the Bill Allmans '43; Stephen G. Don Jr. '58, here with Reynolds Tobacco; Frank Kehl and the Mike Coffields '62, Dartmouth Project Asia fellows at Chung Chi College; and, of course, toastmaster, president, and Hong Kong's representative of Dartmouth's great '25 championship, Dr. F. K. Pan. Here on vacation from the Peace Corps in the Philippines was Parker W. Borg '61, who was quickly made a temporary member and joined in the festivities.
