How does one write a column late in January that is due for publication in the March issue but must be received in February? It would seem that past experience in this respect would be a sufficient guide but, for some reason or other, "it ain't simple." However, as previously stated - "let the chips fall where they may!"

An enclosure from Eben Clough, visiting friends in Laconia, N.H., reveals that Dartmouth will construct a 53.75 M Ice Hockey Arena which promises to be one of the finest collegiate hockey rinks in the country. Said building is designed along the lines of the Nathaniel Leverone Field House built at Dartmouth some ten years ago and will seat 3800 persons with a total capacity of more than 5000 for other activities. Eben further stated that Kike Richard was on Cloud 9, due to an invitation to attend the annual football dinner in January along with Amos Blandin.

A card from Ralph Sawyer along in January reveals that he and his Frances were vacationing in Barbados, West Indies, and enjoying the lush summer climate there where it is always summer - and hard to leave. Such a vacation is indeed a treat!

An informative letter from George Martin says that over the holidays he talked with BushCampbell, Dale Barker, Jack Bowler, EbenClough, and Kike and Pearl Richardson, some of whom were looking forward to the football dinner in January. He reports that Pearl is regaining some lost weight and that Kike's arthritis is much better. He enjoyed lunch with Dale and Bush during their get-to-gether, and learned that NorvieMilmore has improved enough to write letters in the past couple of months.

At this point, having totaled the number of words available, for this type of publication, it would appear that this edition falls considerably below our usual supply. The reason for this can only be laid to the time of the year and the fact that Christmas and New Years curtailed messages and that classmates, by and large, are engulfed with activities that preclude sending in the usual class activities for publication at this time. With which, we trust it will be well understood why the total words herein are less than usual. With which, we can but add our best wishes to all classmates for increased activities in the future.
