1922

Seventy-five or more of the '22 clan were in Hanover for all or part of the Penn Game weekend. About 50 stayed nearby, mainly at Howard Johnson's White River Motel and other North Country hostelries or homes. Fifty-eight enjoyed pre-game cocktails and luncheon in the Drake Room. A few light sprinkles creased some brows at kickoff and the 3-3 half-time score was uncomfortable. But the Big Green put it all together in the second half, won convincingly, and broke the Penn series tie making the record now 19-18-2. Thirty-four had a congenial post-game dinner at Lyme Inn. All in all, despite threatening skies, it was a most pleasant day for the clan. And once again a unanimous vote of thanks goes to Ike Miller for all arrangements of the weekend.

The attendance list would unduly fatten these notes, so, as customary, it will appear, thanks to Steve Kenyon, in his most competently edited journal of class scandal, The Twoter.

Special mention, however, seems apropos for some whose attendance was questionable due to past illness or whose return to Hanover has not been as frequent as they and all of us would like. For instance, it was indeed gratifying to see Killy andElizabeth Kilmarx with Elizabeth looking so well again. Likewise Dr. John and PatMcKoan with John appearing as if he could carry the football again. Also among others particularly welcomed were Dickand Fran Bowler, Dr. Norm and MarianCrane with their freshman grandson James H. Reynolds 3rd, Max and Grace Kenyon with son Peter '54 and his wife Barbara. Bill and Trudy Bullen came up for the weekend but Bill unfortunately was confined nearby with a strep throat. And it is sincerely hoped that everyone who was here, and many, many more will return for 22's Fiftieth, June 9, 10, 11, 1972.

But where can you find sleep at Reunion? Room reservation cards will be mailed to you by The College in late April. Some of us will be in Middle Mass, no elevators, but each room will have a private bath and the Class Tent will be right outside the dorm. Others will prefer the Hanover Inn where 30 rooms will be available for the Class. Procrastinators may find themselves in Hitchcock or Gile where not every room has a private bath. Ike has already received some requests for Middle Mass or the Inn. If you definitely want one or the other, this is the time to send a note to Gen. Walter I. Miller, 203 Crosby Hall, Hanover, N. H. 03755.

Spenny Smith with the gratitude of '22 has accepted the Chairmanship of the 50th Reunion Special Gifts Campaign. Spenny and Head Class Agent Carter Hoyt will exert every effort to assure that '22's Alumni Fund for 1972 will truly represent the affection of the Class for the College. The $75,000 goal is approximately three times the amount the Class contributed to the Fund in 1971. The 50th Reunion year is obviously a very special time and contributions to in future years are not expected to be maintained at this amount. To attain the 1972 objective, however, will require realistic consideration from each of us in this now-or-never effort to show our devotion to Dartmouth. And, if you OUr benefit taxwise by dividing your contribution between 1971 and 1972, this present December is the last month for that purpose. Let's go over the top for '22.

Joe and Betty Perkins, Shep and Margaret Shepard thoroughly enjoyed a Dartmouth Seminar the first weekend in October at Governor Prence Motor Lodge, North Truro, Mass. With "A Retreat to Cape Cod" as the theme and the nearby National Seashore as a classroom, Professor of English Alan T. Gaylord and Professor of Earth Sciences Robert C. Reynolds Jr led 130 enthusiastic alumni "students." Similar Alumni Seminars occur from time to time across the country.

Roy and Dot Ball, Jack and Sylvia Taylor also made their annual retreat of few weeks during the foliage display in the North Country. It was good to see them around Hanover at the football luncheoms and games.

Modie and Sis Spiegel will learn nothing escapes '22's news coverage as these notes report their tour with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra to the music capitols of Europe. When asked if Modie or Sis played in the winds, strings or brass our informer, R. P. Carpenter '23—on the football practice field in Hanover—replied "Not to my knowledge, but they were in an elite group who accompanied its orchestr and had a whale of a good time.''

And then there was that 46-yard field goal in the last two seconds of play a! Harvard—Wow! No Twoter fainted, but Dr. Dick Stetson was awfully worried about us.

Ozzy Siegfried says "Lucile and I have every intention of attending the 50th next June. Hope to see the entire class there And that means you and you and you.

To all "Peace on earth, good will to men!"
