1915's 60th

The 60-Year Reunion of the Class of 1915 is now history but those who participated had an enjoyable time. The activities began with a cocktail hour in the main lounge of College Hall, which had been reserved for us as our headquarters throughout the reunion period. This was followed by an excellent buffet dinner in Thayer Hall. The "at home" of President and Mrs. Kemeny and the concert by the Glee Club rounded out the first evening. The concert by the Glee Club is quite different from that of our day. A group of songs by the all female section and the smaller comedy group was interwoven with the men's contingent.

Everybody was on their own for Saturday breakfast but nearly every one came to the class meeting in College Hall. In addition to reports by various officers an election was held which resulted in the reelection of the present officers. The following were elected as members of the executive committee: Comiskey, Pray, Brown,Clough, and Griffin. A class picture was taken on the steps of College Hall following the meeting.

The alumni luncheon followed at noon on Saturday. After the luncheon we all went to the Spaulding Auditorium for the annual meeting of the General Association of Alumni to hear the address of the representative of the 50-Year Class and a talk by President Kemeny.

The climax of the reunion, in so far as 1915 was concerned, was the cocktail hour Saturday evening and the dinner in the Drake Room of Hopkins Center. Addison Winship '42, son of our classmate Pete Winship and Ruth Winship Crance, with his charming wife joined us for the dinner. Ad is a member of the administration at Dartmouth and he gave us a brief talk about things at Dartmouth, especially mentioning the Dartmouth Plan and the year-round operation of the College.

In attendance at the Reunion were 17 classmates, seven wives, four widows, two sons, two daughters, and one daughter-in-law for a total of 33. Several who had intended to come were prevented from doing so at the last minute. Bob and Helen Griffin had an automobile accident enroute and couldn't make it the rest of the way.

We may not plan any further formal reunions but we trust that the College's invitation to the Post-50 Year group each year will bring back to Hanover a number of Fifteeners.
