He was born on a farm in DeKalb County, Ill., in the same house built by his grandfather from timbers hauled by ox team from Chicago. His grandfather had migrated by covered wagon from Saratoga Springs. "Bones," as he was known to his friends, finished grade school and High School in Rockford and entered Dartmouth in 1907 with a Rockford delegation of seven boys. He took pre-med courses till 1909 when he transferred to the University of Wisconsin. After two years there he dropped out in order to make some money so he could finish his course.

Five years later he went to the New York Lying In Hospital for post graduate work in obstetrics. He returned to Rockford and opened an office to practice his new profession. This was interrupted in 1941 by a call back to active duty, his duties being chiefly to indoctrinate civilian medical men into the service, and the care of their dependents at Charlestown, S. C.

1913
GEORGE STEELE died unexpectedly at his home, 18 Old Colony Road, Wellesley Hills, Mass., on April 10, 1967. He had apparently recovered from an earlier heart attack and his sudden passing was a shock to his family and friends.
George was born on May 23, 1891 at Gloucester, Mass., and received his early education in that city. He was an outstanding student at Dartmouth and gained his diploma with Phi Beta Kappa honors. He composed the 1913 Class Ode that was given at class day graduation exercises.
Following graduation he taught briefly at Monson Academy and in 1916 he became a mathematics teacher at The Choate School at Wallingford, Conn. He remained at Choate School for forty years until his retirement in 1956. He was named Senior Master in 1925 and in 1927 was made Assistant Headmaster. For many years he was responsible for school discipline and many administrative affairs. George counseled boys at the school with problems, applying discipline not to punish, but to root out a boy's real problems and to direct him back into the mainstream of school life. He was greatly loved and respected by his boys. He believed very strongly in the importance of being a gentleman.
As a testimonial to his many years of faithful service the new Administration Building at Choate School was named George Steele Hall at the dedication exercises held on Alumni Day April 29. George had inspected the new building shortly before its completion and was planning to be at the dedication exercises. His portrait, painted by Everett R. Kinstler of New York, will hang in the reception room of Steele Hall.
His loyalty to Dartmouth is exemplified by the fact that he has served his class as class agent, vice president, president, newsletter editor, and secretary.
George is survived by a sister Lucy, a brother Bowman, both of Wellesley Hills, and a sister, Mrs. Paul Vining of Springfield, Mass. Private funeral services were held April 12 at Wellesley and a memorial service for him was held in the Choate School Chapel on Friday April 28.
SOMERVILLE PINKNEY TUCK of Paris and Geneva, former U. S. Ambassador to Egypt and veteran diplomat, died April 22 at the American Hospital in Paris at the age of 75. He had been in ill health for the past year.
"Kippy" Tuck was born May 31, 1891 in New York City. He studied in Switzerland and Germany before entering Dartmouth with our Class. He entered the foreign service immediately after graduation in 1913 and was appointed Deputy Consul at Alexandria. His long and distinguished diplomatic career, embracing both World Wars and postings on five continents, began and ended in Egypt, where he was U. S. Ambassador when he retired in 1948. After retirement he was a Director of the Suez Canal Company, the first American to sit on that board.
Kippy spent the World War I years in the Near East, where he served until 1923. He had known this area from childhood. His father, Judge Somerville Pinkney Tuck, was for many years Judge of the International Court of Appeals in Egypt, and through his mother, Emily Marshall Tuck, he was descended from Chief Justice John Marshall.
After brief assignments to Vladivostok and the State Department, he was transferred to Europe in 1924, and Europe was the center of his activities for the next twenty years, interrupted only by a posting to Buenos Aires, where he served as Counselor of Embassy and Charge d'Affaires at the beginning of World War II. His posts during that period included Geneva, Budapest, Paris, Prague, Brussels, and Vichy.
Kippy's last assignment in Europe was his wartime service with the American Embassy in Vichy as Counselor under Admiral Leahy and as Charge d'Affaires after the Admiral's recall in 1941. It was he who represented the United States in France and played a key role in the critical months preceding the Allied landings in North Africa in November 1942. He subsequently was interned by the Germans with his staff and was exchanged in early 1944 to be immediately chosen by President Roosevelt as his envoy to Egypt..
A long-time member of the Brook and Racquet Clubs in New York, Whites in London, and the Travellers' and the Jockey Clubs in Paris, Kippy took part in the activities of all these clubs and served for a period as President of the Travellers in Paris. He was also a member of the board of directors of the American Hospital in Paris. His services to France earned for him a Commandership in the Legion d'Honneur. He also held the Hungarian Order of Merit.
Those who worked with him in the American foreign service, his foreign diplomatic colleagues, his innumerable friends, all have cherished a warm and affectionate memory of a great and kindly gentleman who knew how to return friendship so completely and unstintingly and who brought gaiety and warmth wherever he went. Kippy always remained a loyal Dartmouth man, though most of his life after graduation was spent in foreign lands far from Hanover. In addition to his liberal annual gifts to the Alumni Fund, he provided for several special Dartmouth scholarships and among these were the scholarships for the sons of U. S. foreign service officers.
Kippy is survived by his wife, the former Katherine Whitney Demmé who resides at 7 rue Octave Feuillet, Paris (16); two sons of a former marriage, James Marshall Tuck and David Hallam Tuck of Washington, D. C.; and a sister, Lady Mills of Ringwood, Hampshire, England. The Class extends to them its deepest sympathy.
A memorial service was held April 27 at the American Cathedral in Paris, of which Kippy was a vestryman. Interment took place at the Tuck family plot at Leeland, near Upper Marlboro, Md.

1926
On April 3 death by natural causes took ROYAL PACKER BAKER from us at his home, 60 Ridgewood Rd., Attleboro, Mass. Royal was a loyal son of the College and a devoted member of the Class although he only stayed with us through sophomore year when he transferred to the University of Virginia from which he graduated in 1926.

In 1948 he was honored with the Alumni Club Secretaries' Award as the Best Club Secretary. He also served as assistant class agent.

1934
WILLIAM WALTER LEVEEN - "Willie" to his legion of friends and Dartmouth classmates - suffered a fatal coronary thrombosis April 1 while watching television with members of his family at their apartment at 73 Carlton Ave., Port Washington, Long Island. He was 54.
Death struck quickly and unexpectedly in the evening of what had been a "happy day." Willie and his wife, Virginia, had spent the afternoon at Aqueduct Race Track where one of his horses had placed second in a feature race. Since his retirement in 1964, after 30 years in the woolen business, Willie devoted much of his time to building up a stable of racing horses. He owned 23 of them - the first of which, "Parasol Doll," he had acquired in 1963 in payment of a bad debt.
Episcopal services were held in a Port Washington funeral home, April 2. Cremation followed.
In 1950, Willie had miraculously survived an automobile accident which hospitalized him for two months. At the time, doctors despaired that he would ever walk again. But, with typical determination that marked his athletic achievements as an undergraduate, he fought and won that battle.
Willie was born in Brooklyn, Feb. 16, 1912, the son of the late Anna Seabury and Edward Philip Leveen. He entered Dartmouth from New York Military Academy where he was captain and star of the swimming team, cadet captain and editor of the year book. At Dartmouth, he was a member of the freshman and varsity swimming teams, the varsity lacrosse team, Zeta Psi, Dragon, and manager of the Polo Club. He majored in sociology. Immediately after graduation, he joined his father's woolen firm - Carleton Woolen Mills - and was in charge of sales in the New York Area. He was a vice president of the firm when he retired. During World War II, he served as a navigation instructor with the air transport command. He was president of the Plandome Country Club in Port Washington.
Willie leaves his wife, the former Virginia Earle; two sons, William Jr. '61 and Jeffrey '68; two daughters, Mrs. Janice Wright of Hamburg, N. Y., and Mrs. Judy White of Port Washington; three grandchildren, a sister and two brothers.
To them, the Class of 1934 expresses its profound sorrow. And to Willie, a blithe spirit in a doubled college generation, his classmates say: "Hail and farewell."
1935
RICHARD PENNANT HOWELL passed away in November, 1963 but news of his death was not reported to the College until this past March.

Several years later he developed TB, and as a result spent a year in a sanitarium. Records do not indicate Dick's occupation in recent years, but at one time he was employed by the J. I. Case Company, makers of farm equipment.
Dick's widow, Sue, survives him at 1209 College Ave., Racine, Wise. He is also survived by a son and two daughters.
