1915

In writing a column for the Alumni Magazine the same problem comes up each month—how to write it a couple months in advance of publication. For instance, the present column is being written late in February and is to be published in April. A lot can happen in that interval of a couple months—which must be taken into account. As previously stated, however, "Let the chips fall where they may." We can only hope that the happenings of those couple months will in no way obfuscate what is being written here. We hope, therefore, that the two-month interval will have produced interesting material that will in no way be out of order.

Edgar Cummings Sanborn ("Sammy") moved to Rossmore in Jamesburg, N.J. We wonder if he knows that Marv Frederick also lives in Rossmore and if they have run into each other. As good '15ers they should get together.

A letter from George Dyke reveals they were on vacation up in the Berkshires and love it up there. All is well with them even though it was snowing and quite cold. "We wouldn't have it any other way." He inadvertently revealed that February 15 was his birthday (never mind the age!).

A revealing letter from Eben Clough gave us the low-down on his situation. Said he talked with Kike Richardson who advised him they receive daily service from their doctor who lives near them in Somerville. Eben said he received a fine letter from Chink Chamberlain who invited him to visit him for a few days whenever the situation would permit. Eben revealed they were enjoying sunny days of 46 degrees lately but they were expecting much colder weather "one of these days." He was grateful for the "inspiration" we sent him and we trust he will carry on "ad infinitum." Amongst other things Eben sent us a couple of attractive photographs of some of the neighbors he consorts with.

George Martin reports a call from Eben Clough with whom he had a good long talk. George also had a note from Gib Campbell who said facetiously he hoped George wouldn't have a heart attack from receiving it. Gib is noted, according to George, for writing every four or five years. George said he did see the Campbells two years ago. He also received a letter, short and sweet, from Jack Bowler. George also had letters from Carl Gish and Madeline Ferguson.

George Ingals came up with an interesting phone account of a trip he was taking which included Transylvania and Kenya amongst other stops. Inasmuch as George and this writer were born on the same date, it will be particularly interesting to get a summary of his trip upon his return—which account we'll be glad to publish when it comes at a later date. Suffice it to say that this writer is considerably thrilled that a classmate could take such a trip!

When one is a guest at an apartment and finds that there is no door to the bathroom, the only answer is to perform as quickly as possible and get out!

That about winds up the news available regarding 1915's activities at this sitting and we shall look forward to receiving further accounts of said activities for future publication. Good luck, everybody!
