Plaques honoring area efforts to bring live music to Uticans were presented on September 2 by Stewart Wagner, president of Local 51 American Federation of Musicians, to Roland E. Chesley and others for helping to bring the Great Artists Series to Utica in conjunction with Munson-Williams-Proctor Institute at the Horatio Seymour Playground during the final season concert of the Con Amore Strings, a local "pops" orchestra.

Your editor drove down to Danbury, Conn., in the third week of October with his 10-year-old Chevy packed to the window sills and on November 1 moved the few articles of cherished furniture and class records so is now quite comfortably settled in his new home with good friends.

On his trip down he stopped overnight with Harold and Ethlyn Clark and two nights with Edward and Eleanor Bartlett at Edward s ancestral home in Belchertown, Mass. The Clarks live in a pleasant cottage in Chesham, N. H., near Keene, but spend summers at a nearby camp on Silver Lake.

The Bartletts invited him to an interesting meeting in the "Stone House" of the Belchertown Historical Society. This museum has as large a store of historical articles as any that he has ever visited except in a large city or state historical society. The topic was ancient glass "flasks" production in New England illustrated by many types which the speaker had assembled.

Don Comstock wrote from Tucson: "My health continues good. I spend several hours every day working around our place. Last spring we turned our back yard into a flower garden. Out here flowers, shrubs, and lawns have to be watered every day which takes up quite a lot of my time - for which I am glad as I have but little else to do."

Your editor watched Dartmouth trim the University of Pennsylvania 24-19 on October 9. He arrived early and found himself alone in a front seat in the middle of the field. Soon a man arrived on his left who turned out to be George Hinkley who enrolled with us but graduated with 'O9 and we recalled old times. Soon on my right appeared John and Jennie Hinman and in front Roger Brown '05 and Allan Brown '07 with their wives so a very congenial group renewed acquaintance.

George has a law office at 465 Congress Street, Portland, Me., and wishes to renew acquaintance with '08ers of freshman year. He also reports a visit to Chester Nichols who has moved to 115 Bay Ridge Lane in Duxbury, not far from his former home on Pinewood Lane. Chet lives in a very comfortably modernized old home with his sister; he was never married.

Ray Marsh writes: "Lillian is nearly physically helpless in a nursing home where I visit her daily. Fortunately she does not appear to suffer physical pain. Much of the time she is comfortable and some of the time even cheerful." (Your editor knows of other similar cases among members of the class who can sympathize with Ray.)

"My daughter and her family, with whom I had lived for two and a half years, were transferred to Hong Kong in the summer where her husband is on the staff of the American consulate - a very important, and I would say, exposed U. S. outpost, things being what they are in the East."

Miss Ann Alberta Schilling, younger daughter of Mrs. Frederick Edward Schilling and the late Mr. Schilling of Hartsdale, N. Y., was married on October 23 to William Lee Swartout of 18 Nixon Drive, Plainview, L. L Her older sister, Mrs. Mary Jane Shankland. was matron of honor.

Art and Juliet Soule expected to fly to Fort Lauderdale on Nov. 5 with the same address of last year. They celebrated their 50th anniversary on October 22 at their son's home at Sandy Point, Fire Island. A family affair with all four children and wives and husbands and eleven grandchil- dren, coming from all over, six from Denver.

Larry and Helen Treadway expected to fly to Florida about November 18
