1945
And now in my part of the country it begins to look more like spring. And let me tell you we've waited a long time for it. This has not been a bad winter as the snow falls but has been consistently cold and somewhat unusual for the rapid temperature falls and sub-zero mornings. But it's over, and this old golfer is again testing the whip in his clubs, oiling his irons, polishing his shoes, and counting the left-over balls from last year's campaigns. That's the way it is at this time of the year.
And now that things are thawing out once again; now that warm southern breezes are loosening stiffened winter muscles; now that the smell of a new season is in the air; now that the world about begins to take on a greener hue; now, out from his long winter hibernation explodes that harbinger of spring, the Class Agent. With intent and activity he urges you to thaw out that pocketbook, loosen those finger muscles, and fill the air with green for Dartmouth.
Seriously, though, this is the time, EliotMover is the man, many are his associates, and Dartmouth is the beneficiary. Don't let them down.
