Several have asked as to the year of the 35th Reunion: it's in June, 1977, again with '42 an '43. We get back on even-numbered years with the 40th (1981), but the 45th is in 1985, and the 50th, 1991 (I haven't researched it beyond that high ridge).
Between 'notes' reports we gassed up at four or five stations in the late winter and drove to Hanover as guests of a Dartmouth Horizons program. This was a 30-hour overnight, an informative, good-humored exposure to leading aspects of college activities in which, among other things, we saw some dazzling work by art students; found Thayer School replete with sprouting inventors; the Medical School swamped with applicants for its new, four-year course; cruised through all the useful and fascinating corners of Hopkins Center (and chinned with a collection of comely, quick-witted coeds.)
We encountered a sizable number of lively, interesting and dedicated people serving as deans, professors, administrators, program directors, Director of Admissions and President; students met created their own sparkling electric atmosphere turning on their doings and their aspirations. There was also some shocking data on the impact of the fuel crisis. Among the guests were Don and Jane Hanks, those old-time upstate New York farmers, who report they're flourishing, and look same. Dick and Mary Vaughan '50, were also in the party and reported that brother Jim Vaughan is busier than ever in the paper business in the Twin Cities.

Shots from these ancient gleanings will be published from time to time - does anyone else have a batch of old-timers?
