Club Secretary of the Year

Clark Weymouth Jr. '54 (1), retired secretary of the Dartmouth Club of Detroit, was named Club Secretary of the Year as Dartmouth club officers held their annual fall gathering in Hanover on October 3. In making the presentation J. Michael McGean '49 (r), College Secretary, read the following citation:

Like the product you sell for Johnson and Johnson, you stick at a job until it's done. When you stepped down this past spring as Secretary of the Dartmouth Club of Detroit, you left behind a distinguished record of service which we feel should not go unrecognized by this Association.

You took it upon yourself to establish excellent communications within your club, and to this end you became the first Editor of the "Motor City Exhaust" Newsletter. You were, also, thorough in your handling of club transactions and the address list, always making that extra effort to be sure that everyone was aware of club events.

You made it a point to greet new alumni in your area either in the columns of the club newsletter or through personal contact. It's not surprising that during your term as Secretary the average attendance at meetings was vastly increased and that the number of dues payers rose from 100 to over 150.

In 1968 this Association recognized your ability and named you a member of the Club Officers Executive Committee. Your counsel and judgment in club matters have been valuable assets to us all.

Service to Dartmouth has become a Weymouth tradition, for your father Clark Weymouth is President of the Class of 1926, and your brother Theodore S. Weymouth '56 is now our unofficial Acting President of the Dartmouth Club of Madrid. So it is in the Dartmouth tradition to salute those who serve her well, and tonight we honor you for the valuable and often unheralded service you have rendered with our Award as Dartmouth Club Secretary of the Year.
