1922

Twenty-Two's customary spring assembly will brighten the Hanover Inn on Friday and Saturday, April 26-27. Early arrivals that Friday afternoon will have a choice of watching baseball, Cornell vs Dartmouth; tennis, the same; or track, Exeter vs Dartmouth Freshmen.

As an oasis for its congeniality, '22 will have its usual hospitality room at the Inn. For most of us the weekend will begin in that room about 5 p.m. Friday. That convivial occasion and its repetition Saturday evening are always BYOL affairs. Dinner at 7 on Friday will be in Alumni Hall where '22 will join the Dartmouth Club of the Hanover Area at its annual social meeting. After dinner our hospitality room will remain open till pub closing time at least.

Saturday morning at 10:15 the men will meet in the hospitality room while the ladies rest, coffee chat, or search the shoppes. Saturday lunch will be when and where you choose. That afternoon, take your choice again: baseball, Army vs Dartmouth; tennis, the same; lacrosse, Princeton vs Dartmouth. Or maybe you'd prefer to doze, sit on the Senior Fence, or watch the Hanover world go by from the Inn porch. Again about 5 we'll converge on the hospitality room for the prelude to Saturday's class dinner at 6:45 in the Drake Room. At 8 that evening the Innsbruck University Choir will be in Hopkins Center. Some sophisticates may prefer the choir, the rest of us will undoubtedly return to the hospitality room, where we'll create some music (?) of our own, right from the Roaring Twenties.

If you have not attended any of these informal, relaxed parties you have missed some most pleasant occasions. But it is. not too late to start and you will be warmly welcomed. Reservations can be made directly to the Hanover Inn by telephone (603-643-4300) or by mail (zip code 03755).

It does not impugn class confidentiality to mention that in years long gone by some wives might occasionally have worried how dear husband would appear when he arrived home - or was deposited on the front lawn. Those rare incidents are, of course, long since forgotten - and, hopefully, forgiven - yet even now WarrenDaniell causes his wife Mary genuine anxiety as to whether he'll arrive home vertical or horizontal. Because Grandpa Warren at 73 continues to ski like a Dartmouth lad of 20. And don't think he hides his blue ribbons where his 21 grandchildren can never see them. For instance, last year he was first among a group, limited to kids over age 55, in the Stowe, Vt., downhill - a mere ten-mile run. Among 1,000 entrants of all ages at an 11-mile cross country in Putney, Vt., Warren did not do too well. He finished 310th - in a tie, so he claims, with no less than Barbara Cochran. And, a little later he was first in the seven-mile cross country at Winter Park, Fraser, Colo. No wonder Mary is advocating chess and rug hooking for him. But Warren did stop skiing long enough to become a consultant and a contributor to the recently published, highly popular Ski Touring in New England by Lance Tapley '66. There is even reference to the "Daniell method of going downhill" - skiwise only, you understand.

Scoff, if you will, at creditability in gremlins and sinister forces. How else did classmate HalTayntor become Hal Pintog in these class notes for February? Recall the picture of six Twoters basking in the sunshine of Naples, Fla., and the credit line "Picture by Hal Pintog" which should have been "Picture by Hal Tayntor." How do such booboos happen? Famous last words of many scribblers, typists, printers, and, yes, devils. Regret and apology certainly go to Hal Tayntor and also to Hal Pintog if indeed there be one.

Some of the clan may be pleased to know that Charles T. Morrissey '56 has been appointed director of the Dartmouth Oral History project and research professor of history at the College. The designation is warmly received by Charlie and the family. P.S. Don't let lack of gas keep you away from Hanover, April 26-27. After arrival, the only gas you'll use will be verbal. If you come by plane or bus, let us know a few days before April 26 what your arrival time will be and arrangements can be made by one of us country boys to meet you at Lebanon or White River Junction, if you arrive before 5 p.m. on Friday, April 26.
