ALBERT WARREN WELLS, known to us in col- lege by his first name, and to his later acquaintances by his second, died in a nursing home near Scales Mound, Ill., on September 21 after a long period of crippling illness that had limited his activity to a wheelchair.

He retired to a 75-acre farm in Altus, Ark., where he worked hard raising turkeys, cattle, and grapes. On his second retirement he moved to Orange City, Fla.

Recently the health of both had changed to such an extent that Warren was moved to the nursing home in Illinois where his daughter could look out for him, while Hazel went to her daughter's home in Arkansas.

1911

Our devoted secretary, JAMES FRANCIS MALLEY, passed away on October 10 at the Portland, Me., hospital. He had made good recovery after a long hospital visit several months ago but then a fall and broken hip were too much for him to survive in his weakened condition.

Jim was born in Randolph, Mass., finished four years in Thayer Academy in 1906 but worked a year in an office and in a shoe factory before joining our class in the fall of 1907. His fraternity was Sigma Phi Epsilon. He chose the Thayer School course but had to give that up when by junior year he had lost his parents and home. He left Hanover to teach school in East Barre, Vt., and returned to Hanover a year later and graduated in 1912 but elected to be known as a 191 1'er.

After graduation he went into the shoe business until he enlisted in early 1917, was a sergeant major in a Signal Battalion in Camp Jackson, then was transferred to the office of Secretary of War to work on labor problems (Dartmouth's "Hoppy" was head of that Department) and later became chairman of the Arbitration Board that made the "Buffalo Award" which gave machinists the 8-hour day and $6.00. Later he was sent to the Panama Canal to be chairman of an arbitration board to settle a labor dispute in the shops there.

After the Armistice, he became superintendent of a shoe factory in Randolph, Mass. Jim married Marguerite Burns in San Francisco in 1920. He continued in the shoe manufacturing business until 1947 when he bought out his partner. He then gave all the equipment, machinery, lasts, dies, and patterns to a large manufacturing chain for $l.00 in order to give work to the help, and then retired.

He was in the New Hampshire Legislature until he reached age 70. He was appointed to the Interim Tax Commission and became a recognized expert on tax matters. In June 1961 at our 50th Reunion he received the award of Honorary Degree of M. A. from Dartmouth.

He contributed never-slackening personal effort to keeping that column lively for his classmates. No finer man ever lived than Jim Malley and he will be greatly missed by his family, his friends, and his 1911 classmates.

1916

HYMAN WOLFF ABRAHAM '16 of Burlington, vt., and Ft. Lauderdale, passed away June 16. While illnesses slowed him down considerably over the past couple of years, he died without pain in the comfort of his family.

He is survived by four children and his widow Connie of 4250 Ocean Gait Dr., Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. 33308. His family enjoyed many trips to Hanover for fall football and spring reunions. In between trips, the musical family would gather round the piano and sing and play various musical instruments to fill the air with Dartmouth songs, which kept me (I appreciate being asked to write this obituary) carrying on the Dartmouth tradition as a '56er.

Hy was active in handball and hockey at Dartmouth, and kept his hockey going by coaching at UVM in the '30s {The Burlington Free Press reran a picture of one of his teams recently). He was also active in community life, belonging to many fraternal, civic, and business organizations and community advisory councils. He was also advisor to a UVM fraternity for many years. The main quality of his life was his devotion to his family who would appreciate continuing to hear from his Dartmouth friends.

1923

The news that JOHN CARLIN ALLEN died at his home in Oakland, Calif, on August 31 writes the inevitable "Finis" to the saga of a colorful and beloved classmate. John had for several years been a cheerful invalid following a series of debilitating heart attacks.

Johnny came to Dartmouth from Denver and quickly gained prominence as a fine athlete, leader in class activities, and talented wit. He was a football and track star; vice president and later alumni secretary of our class; a member of Psi Upsilon, and Casque and Gauntlet; and the co-conspirator, manager, and straight-man in the many hilarious activities generated by the great team of Flanigan, Carbaugh, and Allen.

After graduation John sampled a variety of jobs and traveled for some time in Europe and Russia before settling down in New York as a statistician with a Wall Street firm. Out of this experience he developed and patented "Technigraph," a stock market computing device which he marketed through a company he founded and directed. This accomplishment led, in turn, to a direct commission in the Research and Development office of the Navy following Pearl Harbor. He rose to the rank of commander, USNR, during a five-year tour of duty which included post-war service in Japan. Following his discharge in 1947 Johnny entered upon a new career as a professional fund raiser for hospitals and educational institutions which he successfully followed until his retirement in 1967. His death preceeded by one week his 74th birthday. His marriage in 1932 to Beatrice Rowe was terminated by divorce. John is survived by two fine sons, John Carlin Allen Jr. and Preston Rowe Allen. '59.

1926

ROBERT HENRY MINTON died at his home in New York City on September 2 after a relatively short illness. He had undergone an operation in Memorial Hospital, New York, in March, but had recovered sufficiently to go to his beloved home and gardens in Biarritz, France, as was his custom each year between May and October. Unfortunately, his health began to deteriorate during the summer and he was forced to return to New York in August.

Bob was born in New York City on July 13, 1904. He entered Dartmouth from the Horace Mann School for Boys at Riverdale, N.Y. where he had been outstanding as a scholar, a member of the Glee Club and, president of an excellent Dramatic Club. He had played on the varsity football team his senior year. At Dartmouth, Bob was a member of The Players, participating in most of their serious productions. He was on the freshman football squad and a member of LeCercle Francais.

After graduation in 1926, Bob joined the family firm Louchheim, Minton & Company and became a member of the New York Stock Exchange a year later. In 1929 he was made a partner of the firm where he continued until 1941 when interrupted by World War II. Thereafter he returned to the investment business variously with Carlisle, DeCoppet & Company, and Burnham & Company until his retirement in 1967. During World War II, he served in the Civil Air Patrol and as a field director for the American Red Cross in the European Theater.

In 1932, he was a member of the United States two-man Bobsled Team which won a bronze medal in the Olympic Winter Games held at Lake Placid, N.Y.

After his retirement, in addition to other civic and community activities, he became deeply involved as a volunteer in the Memorial Hospital.

Those of us who knew Bob as far back as his Horace Mann School days remember him distinctly for his charm, dignity, maturity and modesty, and with it all a delightful sense of humor. Throughout his life he always retained these fine qualities and an acute sensitivity to other people's needs and troubles. Bob had a flair and a joie de vivre that marked him as a rare individual. Not only did he appreciate art, and had a flawless taste for the beautiful things of life, but he also created. In his leisure time he painted and did needlework.

In 1950, Bob was married to Mallory Mixsell whom many of his class will remember meeting at the 25th and 30th Reunions. His greatest joy and fulfillment was with his lovely wife who now survives him. The Class of 1926 extends sincerest sympathies to her in this- great loss.

Just eight days before his death, Bob was named a member of the 1926 Memorial Book Committee, having always sustained a particular interest in this class project. It would be most fitting that any expression of memory by his Dartmouth friends might be expressed-through the 1926 Memorial Book Fund of Library.
