The Executive Committee has unanimously elected Robert Russell, Norman's son, an honorary member of the Class of 1906.
For many years Bob has been what might be called an ex-officio member of the Class. He has attended all reunions, Boston meetings, Class Officers meetings and has been a constant help to Norman in handling the details of the treasurership. Bob is wellknown to most of the class and we are delighted to welcome him into the family.
Early in April Ethel Powers sailed from Boston on a six weeks' vacation trip in Europe. On shipboard she suffered severe burns on both legs and was taken to a hospital in Lisbon. Walter flew over and brought her home and while she is much better she has not been outdoors under her own power for four weeks. The Class sends best wishes for an early and complete recovery.
The Class will be sorry to hear that JackKingsbury died on April 3. To Ruth and the family 1906 sends its sincerest sympathy.
The amount of class news that I get is so meager that in order to have the class represented in the ALUMNI MAGAZINE I am going to start a course in Ancient History.
First question: — Who is the Classmate who is still living and has always lived in the same house in which he was born?
Second question: - Who can name the ten classmates who were born out of the United States? One in China, three in England, one in Mexico, two in Nova Scotia, one in Ontario, one in Scotland and one in Sweden.
Third question: - From which New England state did the most classmates come and from which one, the fewest?
Fourth question: - From how many of the states did the class draw one or more members?
Anyone who wants to know the answer to any question send me five dollars for the Alumni Fund.
And speaking of the Alumni Fund, have you sent in your gift? Of the forty-five living 1906 graduates, twenty-five have made a gift every year for twenty-five years or more.
In the Green Derby our class is in fourth position. Please come to the rescue.
Bill Bodwell, Nat Leverone, and Hal Edgerton will be celebrating their natal day this month.
