1914
Following our appeal to a far-famed seeress we have learned that the following men, whose birthdays are celebrated in the month of March, born under the influence of the sign of Pisces, the Fishes, was Little, whereas Hall and Sheldon were born under the sign of Aries, the Ram. However, in order for them to receive the full benefits to be derived from this distinction, it will be necessary for them to first cross her palm with silver.
The fallowing vignette appeared in the September 1968 issue of the newsletter of the Class of 1916:
"Mart Remson was telling me lately in Tanzi's store about this old chap, name of George Hemingway, lives over in Hartland Four Corners. His wife picked on him constantly for smoking and drinking, so he put this ad in the Hartland Clarion and Bugle: "Gentleman, ninety-two, who smokes and drinks would like to meet lady, about ninety, who smokes and drinks. Object, smoking and drinking." They say his wife has been nicer to him ever since. Wonder if that was what the pesky cuss really had in mind. You think so? Local opinion seems to be divided as usual."
Hank Llewellyn, after celebrating his birthday at his home in Groton, Conn., writes about football as it was played in our day: One of Coach Cavanaugh's axioms was that you should never try to go through center when you are down on the opponent's goal line in an attempt to score a touchdown. Too much traffic. We were playing against Amherst in an early season game. We were on about the 50-yard line when Win Snow burst through the middle of the line and, with no one between him and the goal line and a sure score, he somehow managed to fumble and dropped the ball which was recovered by Amherst.
At the training table on the following Monday Cav was really chewing Win out.
"What the hell was the matter with you, Snow?" he said, "you break through center, there's nobody in your way, you're going for a touchdown, and you drop the ball."
"Well, Coach" Win replied, "You always tell us never to go through center for a touchdown!"
I had a few days with Sig Larmon at his New York home this past fall and also visited him at his place on the Cape last summer. He appears to be in great shape and he is a wonderful friend.
Fred Allen used to say, "Live every day like it was your last and some day you'll be right."
Writing from her home in Wolfville, Nova Scotia, Helen S. Boggs, (Mrs. George A.) says, "My family, though scattered, visits me frequently, and last summer I had Barbara of Wellesley Hills and her eldest son; Peggy, of London, Ontario and five of their eight children; and David, of Oakville, Ont. with their two little girls - each with their respective spouses. I am the very proud grandmother of Catharine Joyce who is a member of the first class to include girls entering Dartmouth. I am not sure how George would have viewed this particular event since he was always against coeducation in general and at Dartmouth in particular but it seems to be producing very happy results.
"I am always glad to hear from any classmates or their widows."
