1903's 65th
In a later News Letter I will try to give you more details, names, etc., of those who helped to make our 65th Reunion pleasanter and more worthwhile than we could have hoped in view of our reduced numbers. Five men were registered and another four relatives including one widow were a big help in making the Reunion a success.
Our very sincerest thanks to David Orr '57, Assistant College Secretary, who did the important planning for us and also helped secure the services of a student Michael Vasey '69 who looked after us at all times and became our guide, advisor, and friend. Our headquarters were at North Fayerweather in charge of Mr. Fred Byrd '69 who did everything possible to make our visit so pleasant.
Friday evening we had dinner together at Thayer and then attended the reception in the beautiful gardens of President Dickey. From there we went to Hopkins Center to a very fine and well executed concert by the Dartmouth Glee Club.
Saturday on the steps of Dartmouth Hall we had our class picture. Unfortunately only five of us showed up and we could not hold the camera man as there were larger classes waiting their turn.
At noon we were driven to Leverone Field House as guests of the Alumni Association for the luncheon and then talks by the '68 Class President, the 50-year representative, Mr. Harvey P. Hood '18 and by President Dickey.
In the evening a cocktail party and class dinner in the Drake Room of Hopkins Center ended a busy day in perfect weather. We were so few in number we felt it not necessary to elect an entirely new slate of officers but Lewis Haney and Horace Kidger were approved as additions to our executive committee which will now consist of Kimball, Haney, Kidger, and Smith.
A great deal of thanks of the writer and praise by our reunioners go to Lewis Haney for his efficient assistance and advice.
A very welcome guest at the dinner was Mrs. Roy Bergengren, widow of our old classmate and friend, Roy.
On Sunday morning our few active members were second, after the single representative of 1898, in leading the Commencement procession. We did not have as many of you as we had hoped for but believe you are just as sorry as we are that you were not able to be with us.
The member who came the farthest, as in 1963, was our good friend and ardent Dart- mouth fan, Gink Ford.
Sincerest good wishes to you all.
