1922

"What do you like most about Dartmouth?" we asked a freshman last spring. He replied, "Well, to begin with, I have Kemeny in Math, and. ..." Such softspoken praise speaks loudly for Dartmouth, Prof. John G. Kemeny, and the freshman. It provides still another reason why '22 delights in congratulating John and Jean and their children upon his appointment as the first Albert Bradley Third Century Professor. The details of that high honor and its significance were reported in the June issue of this alumni journal. Here, again, in these informal class notes, John is, of course, proudly acknowledged as the distinguished mathematician and eminent teacher he is. But the reason '22 loves to have the Kemenys in its family go beyond such recognitions. It could happen that an honorary classmate might wonder how and why he ever agreed to the association. But that is not John Kemeny and '22. He and Jean join us at our socials, reunions, and various other gatherings. He helps us whenever we need assistance, often in giving part of himself, and in other ways we have no right to expect. And while at 43 he is by far the youngest member of the Class, we have no communication gap with him and Jean. Indeed. the Kemenys never tend to fossilize '22 - and that must not always be easy, because they could be our children and many of us wish they were. So, '22 can only add thank you to John and Jean and declare again how proud we are to have you with us in '22.

Felicitations likewise from all Twoters go to Haskell and Harriet Cohn and family upon his election as president of the Boston Bar Association, a distinction that speaks for itself. A member of the Massachusetts Bar for 43 years, Haskell is a senior partner in Mintz, Levin, Cohn and Glovsky. He has served the Boston Bar Association as vice president, as a member of its Council, chairman of the Family Law Committee and chairman of the Workmen's Compensation Committee. In the American Bar Association he is a member of the House of Delegates, a member of the Standing Committee on Continuing Education of the Bar, and vice chairman of the Estate and Gift Tax Committee. In the American Law Institute he is a member of the Joint Committee on Continuing Legal Education and a member of the Advisory Committee for Revision of Estate and Gift Taxes. He is a member of the Council of the Harvard Law School Association, past president of the Harvard Law School Association of Massachusetts, past president of the Dartmouth Alumni Association of Boston, a Fellow of the American College of Probate Lawyers, and a director of the Greater Boston YMCA.

Any demurrers to the preceding testimony should be addressed to Judge Tony Hanlon because he is the source whence these allegations came. With Haskell as president of the Boston Bar Association and Harriet a trustee of Wellesley, the Cohns must have plenty to discuss, even at breakfast. Warm congratulations to both of them from all of us.

Well won accolades from all Twoters to Carter Hoyt and our loyal band of agents who pushed '22 over the top on the 1969 Alumni Fund. With slightly more than $30,-600 received from 237 contributors, the Class achieved the quotas both as to participation and dollars. And, especially in 1969, this meant continued loyalty in '22's time-tested commitment to Dartmouth. Consequently, the Class offers its deep gratitude to all classmates, wives of departed classmates, and others who gave. Nor can the Class forget our agents who made the results possible: Howie Almon, Elmer Ardiff, Roy Ball, Johnnie Bray, Brisy Brisbin, Herm Carlisle, Mai Clarke, Pop Clewell, Jack Dana, Dan Daniell, Charlie Earle, Andy Heath, Larry Henderson, Dr. Clyde Jensen, Max Kenyon, Fran Leland, Ed McNamara, Rex Malmquist, Herm Oliver, Oscar Rice, Spenny Smith, and Don Tobin, together with George Brooks, who worked on Memorial gifts, the entire '22 team turned in a job highly appreciated by College and by Class.

Somebody in Hanover must be doing something right, sometimes, but you'd never hear it nor see it - except, of course, in these exclusive family notes. For instance, 1,569 Dartmouth students were on the Dean's List (4.0 or better, with 5.0 representing all A's) for the 1969 Winter Term. The list included Paul, son of Dr. MarkeyPullen, and Steve, son of Dr. RaymondMillemann. Steve also won a citation for excellence in History. Nice going, men.

In sorrow, In Memoriam reports our loss of Johnny Shea and Templeton Innes.

Stan and Catherine Miner hosted a happy group of Twoters on a July afternoon when Dr. Bill Angell, Tom Byrne, Bill and Dot Gallagher, Stan and Doris Jackson, Ike and Harriott Miller, Louise Olsen, Olie's brother and his wife, and Oscar and Bea Rice gathered at The Cobble, the Miner home, in Gaysville, Vt.

Seeking cooler climes, Francis and MaeCullen went acruising to Scandinavia, Russia, Holland, Belgium, and Ireland in July.

Disturbing news from California reported Howie Almon hospitalized there in June with a compound leg fratcure, skull injury, and concussion from a fall suffered while touring Spain in May. All classmates hope for full and rapid recovery.

'22's Penn Game Holiday Weekend, Oct. 10-13, will start soon after you read these notes - if you ever do. Friday, Oct. 10, the schedule calls for checking in at the comfortable Howard Johnson Motel near the new bus station in White River Junction. Dartmouth Night will be on the campus Friday evening with the traditional pre-game bonfire, band, speeches, cheers and songs - we hope. Saturday, about 11:30 a.m., '22 will have a pre-game luncheon in the Drake Room at the Hanover Inn. With Penn rating as an Ivy title contender, the game will start at 1:30. The Dartmouth Club of the Hanover Area will sponsor a post-game social for all alumni and friends at a place to be announced via loudspeaker at the game. Twoters will have dinner together Saturday evening at the Occom Inn in Hanover. Reservations at Howard Johnson's will enable '22 to stay over Sunday and to enjoy the North Country's autumn spectacular in living color. Monday, Oct. 13, the Columbus Day holiday, you may return home through the tapestry of the countryside or maybe you'll stay over and go to the Tuesday Quarterbacks Luncheon at Lander's Restaurant in Lebanon. All this is yours with your classmates and their wives, if . . . What! you haven't been in touch with Ike Miller for reservations! It is not too late, but hurry. You can at least make the pre-game luncheon and probably the post-game dinner. Ike's telephone in Crosby Hall is 603-646-273 or at home 802-785-2012. Call either number station to station. Whoever answers can take the reservations. Use the low night rates any time before 1:00 a.m. General Miller is generally asleep after that.
