1911

Dutch Waterbury wrote from St. Luke's Hospital in Utica that he fell and has been there for 12 days. Gaining now and hopes to be released soon.

The estate of Sam Aronowitz added $1,000 to the Samuel E. Aronowitz Memorial Fund which will support a prize in his name to be awarded annually to some Tucker Fellow. Details will be in the next issue of 'LEVEN UP in October if all goes well.

Lin-Yi-Ho's sister-in-law and her husband Francis K. Pan, Dartmouth '26 and Tuck '27, came on for a Lion's convention in San Francisco last summer and returned home to HongKong via Los Angeles. They stopped off to visit him which gave them three memorable evenings together. He is so grateful that he can move about in a little world of his own. He writes a beautiful hand.

Charley Jordan called your secretary in mid-July. He was still hanging on in the old homestead. He was 86 in August and is enjoying the reading glass which Hopper Allison recommended which has made the newspaper legible again. He said that he had slowed down and was careful about his health. He reported his grandfather Dartmouth 1840 had no fuel crisis as his college room was heated via a fireplace.

Rev. Scotford opines that the longevity of us survivors may be due to the Hanover winters which fortified us for life. He still preaches on Sundays to small Methodist congregations.

Ray Nead wrote that there was no news from the mountains of North Carolina so "No News is Good News." They both seem to be going along in good shape. He appreciates the efforts of the class officers to keep interest alive. A big plus for him: - he always answers letters, so many cannot or will not.

Rick Castle checked in to answer our letter. They are both quite well and so thankful for their carefree days in that lovely community. His only problem is that common to most of us: lack of ability to be active. He observes that our ranks will grow thinner from now on.

Bill Gooding wrote in early August that he had made a good recovery from the ills that beset him last Christmas. He is so grateful that Dot has managed to keep on her feet and for the good care of the doctors and nurses. His grandchildren came two by two to call on them. They were more than welcome with their cars.

Sam Pickering writes that after spending 17 weeks in the hospital and nursing home he returned home April 17 and relies on a special cane and the furniture to get around. He is grateful to be home after all the sitting and lying down; and as mobile as he is, he expects his home exercises to eventually allow him to get around by himself.

Jack Norris wished us "Good Health" in answer to my birthday greeting and observes that the birthday list is shrinking. He still drives his car but has joined us who walk with a cane.

Harold Burtt has his biennial check with his opthalmologist: his vision with glasses is 20/15, a boon to a retired professor!
