Phoenix

Although we recently heard the product of a western university declare that Dartmouth consisted of 3.000 undergraduates and 30.000 overgraduates, we must admit it was fun for some twenty of us to get together for drinks and sandwiches in the high and mighty Kiva Club and hear by leased wire the Dartmouth-Princeton game. The world series was no competition for Our interest. Thanks to Bill Miller '51 for access to this fine club which he now heads.

Our regular first-Tuesday-roast-beef-two-buck luncheons at the Arizona Manor on Camelback and 24th Street have recently welcomed such stalwarts as Frank Poor '26, Dick Loughry '34, Russ Fisher '17, Dick Vaules '57, President Bill Behrens '56, exsecy Bill Miller '51, Tower Snow '31, Wayne Frerichs '46, Lowell Wormley '27, John Connor '44, Les Hoyle '37, yours truly, and Charlie Henderson '62. Did you ever watch a luncheon welcoming a Dartmouth man? It's worth watching if the luncheon is represented by one of the most comely redheads in the sunny state of Arizona. We unwavering partisans (that's what stalwarts means) said hello to new arrivals Bill Brindley '45,Dick Morgan '63, and to three '66ers now at the American Institute for Foreign Trade here in Phoenix: Tim Paige, Ken Kvis tad, and Jim Jourdonnais.

With the loss of Charlie Fay '49 to California, and prospect Phil Kerce '61 in another direction, the job of treasurer went high in the air, but fortunately landed on the indefatigable Russ Fisher '17 whose raptorial understanding well fits him for stepping on loose dimes and other honest dodges for keeping us solvent.

A real Toss to the Club was our senior member Otto S. Mayer '07. He beamed a warming smile to the farthest reaches of our association. His good wife Elaine asked that his dues be continued. We mourn the passing of this fine Dartmouth alumnus and send heartfelt sympathy to Mrs. Mayer.

Recent visitor from Hanover was Jay Evans '49 of the Admissions Office. His message was flattering and (so he insists) quite true: the reason many of the new frosh chose Dartmouth was through the active interest and enthusiasm of a local Dartmouth man or group. On November 18 we will have a luncheon meeting with Robert W.MacMillen '40, assistant Dean of Summer Programs, and gents it ain't what it used to be!

Come and visit with us at lunch some "first Tuesday." At our last we heard a long discourse on the origin of the Barbary Coast (in Hanover, not California), the best treatments for arthritis, and the joke about the man who swallowed his glass eye.
