1937

Life for a class secretary would be a good deal more simple if more of you would get elected to public office. Now take SenatorTom Mclntyre. Hardly a day goes by without some word about him; as we write this we have on our desk a Washington column sent to newspapers throughout the country by the Democratic National Committee featuring an article by Senator Tom entitled "Water for America." The national water supply is abundant, Tom says, but is not distributed equally. One answer to the problem: the Water Resources Planning Act.

Out in Kansas City Pat Uhlmann is interested in water, too, but of another kind. Pat sends a picture of himself on his new horse, "Stagnant Water," taken just before the Thanksgiving Day fox hunt. Pat has just been chosen international president of the Gaillardia Society. This association started out as a garden club, but developed into a charitable organization entirely on a volunteer basis, doing charity work in many countries.

Middlebury College has appointed FrankIrwin director of financial aid, in charge of awarding student scholarships, employment and National Defense loans. Frank retired last year from the Department of State. He had been with the executive secretariat, and during the 19th UN General Assembly served as advisor on Latin American affairs to the late Adlai E. Stevenson. Previously he was first secretary and consul at the American embassy in San Jose, Costa Rica. Frank and his wife Josephine have two sons, Frank Jr., varsity soccer coach at Wesleyan University in Connecticut, where he is completing work for a master's degree in English and Thomas H. H. Irwin, a Dartmouth sophomore. Their daughter Maude is at Sidwell Friends School in Washington.

Frank Young represented Dartmouth as a delegate at the inauguration of Marshall Buckalew as president of Morris Harvey College in Charleston, W. Va., and out in Seattle Phil Swain had a similar role at the inauguration of the Very Rev. John A. Fitterer, S.J., as president of Seattle University. George Skinner has been named to the research committee of the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce. He is director business research for New England Tel. and Tel.

Not long ago the Ossining (N. Y.) Citizen-Register featured an article on Bob Cheney, art director for Harper and Row, book publishers, who has become involved in many of Ossining's community activities since moving there from New York five years ago. Bob is on the board of the Community Council, is chairman of the Committee for Recreation and chairman of the swimming pool committee, and last year sponsored a petition to purchase Sparta dock, first step in a proposed river-front development project.

One daily word from a classmate is the syndicated cartoon by Dr. Mike Petti offering a hint to good health. Now we have come across a column by Mike headed "What Do the Specialists Say . . . ?" Mike poses a frequently-asked question, say about diabetes or cholesterol, and then finds a specialist to give an authoritative answer. He is a professor of medicine at Western Reserve University in Cleveland.

Harty Beardsley, still with the British Newfound land Corp., has moved with his family to St. John's, Newfoundland, from Montreal. Much of his time is spent developing a hydroelectric project at Baie d'Espoir on the south coast of Newfoundland.

Charlie Blaisdell's gang is working hard to shape arrangements for our Thirtieth next June. If each of us would consider himself a committee of one to get himself to Hanover for the big event, what a reunion we would have!
