1925

No more loyal, devoted, and demonstrative Dartmouth man ever lived than Marty Huberth. As a lover of the outdoors, particularly in the north country, and an enthusiastic horticulturist, it seemed appropriate that a tree be planted in his memory - possibly in the area of Wheeler Hall. A Hanover committee of three, Ford Whelden,Larry Leavitt, and Bob McKennan, was formed at the instigation of Bob Misch, several classmates contributed the necessary funds, and the planting of the tree, together with an appropriate plaque, was scheduled for Saturday, May 11, during the class officers' weekend in Hanover.

The current college year marks the beginning of the tenth year in which the sum of $500 of income has been made available annually to the Library from an endowment established by Mrs. Carolyn F. Jones as a memorial for her late husband, Buck Jones. Through Carolyn's enthusiasm for such an object as the initial application of these funds in memory of her husband, a program was initiated in the autumn of 1958 for creating small, self-contained collections of reference and general-reading works within the common rooms of the new Cohen-Bissell, Little-Brown residence halls on Choate Road and for building these dormitory libraries to adequate size and character.

Ev Learnard, retired head of the Science Dept. at Norwood H.S., Norwood, Mass., and temporary teacher of chemistry at Milton Academy, has been appointed Consultant in Physics in the USAID program of instruction at Annamalai University in Annamalainagar, Madras State, India, for a period of six weeks. In traveling to New Delhi, where the preliminary orientation is to be held, Ev will stop at Honolulu, Tahiti, New Zealand, Australia, Hong Kong, Bangkok, and Thailand. On his return trip he will stop at Istanbul, Frankfort, and London.

Recent visitors to Hanover were Frank and Corinne Kenneday, who had been to see their daughter in college in Nashua; Brad and Jane Kingman and Bud Petrequin, who were there for Dartmouth Horizons; Ken Montgomery, who attended ceremonies during presentation to the library of a portrait of Richard W. Morin '24, who is retiring after 18 years' service as the Baker Library librarian, Ken having been the donor of the portrait; and Francis Brown, who had been observed working assiduously in the library.

The annual spring dinner of the greater Boston group was held at the Pillar House, Newton Lower Falls on May 3, 1968. The number of those in attendance was so great (in excess of forty) that space does not permit the listing of names. It is noteworthy that classmates came from such distant points as Hanover, New Boston and Nashua, N.H., and Worcester and Falmouth, Mass. A full report should appear in an early issue of The Roundup. Among the replies of those unable to attend the dinner it was interesting to note that Ed Waring would be in Texas; Herb Talbot would be in Long Beach, Calif., on a teaching assignment; Bob Palmer would be in Europe; Woody Wilson would be in Louisville, Ky.; Charlie Moore andAddie "will be out of U.S.A. that date, Ben Bowden would be in Bermuda practicing his favorite sport, golf, in anticipation of the forthcoming season; and Bill Sleigh would be in New York attending a Law Institute.

One of the advantages gained from affairs of this kind is the news which becomes available for these notes. For example, Johnnie Garrod, an avid fisherman, has become a member of the Miramichi-Renouse Club, which owns or leases some of the best salmon water on those famous New Brunswick Rivers, and plans to get his fill of salmon fishing each year. The Ken Nugents left home the first of January and spent the following three and one-half months in Sarasota, Fla., with a diversionary fortnight in the Virgin Islands.

Frank Wallis is taking things easy these days. He and Elly spent five weeks in Florida the past winter, visiting the Lon Kimballs en route. They've leased a house for the months of February and March next year at Marco Island, several miles south of Naples, Fla. During the coming summer they'll spend their leisure time on the "Elly B II."

Lane Goss will retire September 1 as chairman of the Worcester County Institution for Savings. He became chairman in 1963 after serving as president since 1946. Lane is a past chairman of Worcester Community Chest publicity committee, treasurer and director of the Family Service Organization, former director of the Worcester County Music Association, former vestryman at All Saints Episcopal Church and former chairman of the FHA's out-of-state mortgage committee. Immediately following announcement of his retirement, Lane took off on a trip to London and Europe. On his return he'll settle down in Dover, N.H.
