1906

A phone call from Bill Page advised that his back was just as strong as ever so he was able to spend all the time necessary to take care of his garden but that his eyes were so bad that he has had to give up his baseball work. However when the umpire calls "Play Ball" Bill will be hanging around home plate, I am sure.

Catherine and Arthur Chapin report a delightful three weeks' western trip. They visited their daughters Barbara' and Francis in St. Louis and their daughter Nancy in Denver. Barbara's son is a junior at Dartmouth and her daughter, Ann, a freshman at Kansas University. Francis has two girls, six and four, and Art said he enjoyed them very much as he felt that mentally they were his equal. Nancy's two girls and one boy are in high school in Denver.

While in St. Louis Catherine and Art had a delightful visit with Marion and ArthurKelley.

The following classmates have grandsons in Dartmouth: Art Chapin - Sandy Dunlap '68; Ned French — Ned Gillette '67; JackKingsbury - Fred Kingsbury '70; Ned Redman — Dick Lucy '67; Bill Page - John Page '6B; and Cap Pierce - Norman Pierce '70. If there are any others please let me know.

Catherine and Art Chapin, Francis Childs and I attended the class officers meeting in Hanover on May 12 and 13.

Rolfe Humphries, who was Visiting Professor of Classics at Dartmouth last fall, recently called on Winifred and Ralph Glaze in Cambria and was impressed-with Ralph's remarkable memory, his warm hospitality and his keen sense of humor. Rolfe said he was greatly interested in the scrap book he had kept with many good pictures and accounts of college football and big league baseball games in which he had taken part. He said that both were in good health and were delightful people.

The Class of 1906 is very slow in sending in their gift to the Alumni Fund. As of May first only thirteen classmates and twelve widows had responded. Please make your contribution as soon as possible.

Bill Bodwell, Hal Edgerton and Nat Leverone will be celebrating their birthdays in June.
