Dick Barnes writes that he and Sue hope to be at the Princeton game which will be over before you read this. Sue has recovered quite well from a "drastic" operation and they have spent the summer at their cottage on the Seaway watching the ships go by. No great-grandchildren as yet but their daughter Joan and their son-in-law Bob Leslie have four children, three boys and a girl. Don is an orthopedic surgeon affiliated with the St. Louis Park Medical Center in Minneapolis.
Ralph Pendleton and wife Greta celebrated a "surprise" wedding anniversary in their new home in Rutland, Mass., attended by all three of their children, three quarters of their grandchildren, half of their great-grandchildren, and a host of friends and kinfolks. They are giving serious consideration to getting up to the Princeton Homecoming.
Ellwood Fisher spent the summer at Wianno as they have been doing for many years. Ell says that the golf course of nine holes seems longer than it used to be but he still walks the distance. The Fishers' have ten grandchildren and all but two of them were at their vacation retreat. "Woody" Ellwood Jr. '60 lives in St. Louis where he is in the leasing business which had been very productive until recently. Ell and Marion also hope to make the class meeting on October 11.
Dr. Allen G. Brailey doubts very much if they can stray away as far as Hanover again. Both he and his wife Alice have had brief bouts of heart trouble and have been admonished to avoid getting tired, and to stick near their home base in Newton Highlands, Mass.
Dr. Norman Crisp in Nashua, N.H., says that his two boys, Norman Jr. '49 and John '53, are most useful sons and a credit to their Dartmouth heritage. Wife Pat has been ill these last few years, so both of them don't get around much; They appreciate frequent visits from Harry and Mary Garland, and they always get a big lift on those occasions.
Larry and Alice Nardi have moved to Annapolis, Md., where they are living with their daughter Anna. However, they have their own apartment where they will be by themselves, an important consideration where two families are concerned.
A letter from our class president to EmilyStickney at her new address at 211 Waterman St., Providence, R.I., invites her to join in some of the class activities especially our 55th Reunion in 1976. (And your secretary would like to honor her birth date. Date of birth is not required, just the day of the month is sufficient.)
A very nice invitation was received from Lura Kenyon, widow of Robert Kenyon '07. She asked all Dartmouth friends and their wives to attend a mid-day lunch at the Brick Tower in Concord, N.H. Our class was well represented including, Jeff Lawrence, Dave Bowen, Harry Garland, Walter Henshaw, Roland Batchelder, Kendrick Bean, your secretary, and their wives.
Homecoming will be over before you read these notes. Let's hope it was. successful, including the class meeting, the meals at Holiday Inn and Hopkins Center, a victory over Princeton, and another Ivy League championship to follow. Dave Bowen will do the reporting for all the games for the Smoker in his inimitable way.
