1911

It was recently learned that McGregor Hamilton died last May. He attended Dartmouth during freshman year. We have no information on his activities after leaving college.

On the current critical issue under discussion, Wee Kimball reports, "Our 1911 Questionnaire on the Equal Access Dilemma, with details showing the collective 1911 opinion, was completed and mailed to each Trustee December 24. Space limitation here permits only a brief summary as follows - full report to the Class in another issue of 'LEVEN UP, hopefully in March."

"Thirty-five living men in Class; one moved and left no address; four preferred not to reply, so 30 participated. Five elected not to vote on the specific questions, a majority indicating they preferred to stand pat for 'no coeducation at all' as per the 1911 vote of 48 to Bin 1970 for a continuation of an all-male college. So, a total of 25 voted. Only two negative votes. The other 23 voted in favor of not changing the present 3:1 ratio and never reducing the males below the 3,000 tacitly agreed to as a condition of coeducation; but if more females have to be admitted, do it gradually, with no deadline dates and only as fast as new needed funds have first been secured in sufficient amount to prevent more deficit financing - and males never to be reduced below the present 3,000."

Also from Wee, on the basis of incomplete returns, it is indicated that the following are planning to attend our 65th Reunion next June: Marian Agry, Ruth Backus, Mary Chase, Don Cheney and Fanny, Ken Clark and Elizabeth, True Dudley, Dorothy Gooding, Wee Kimball and Elsie with Warren Jr. and wife as guests, John Learoyd, Spim Norris, Meet Wilson and Alice, Windy Winship. Please advise us of your plans so that we can publish accurate lists in each of the March, April, and May class notes.

A nominating committee has been organized with Spim Norris as chairman and Charlie Jordan and Ed Poole serving as co-members. This body will submit the names of nominees for designated officers to be acted upon at a class meeting to be held during Reunion.

Holiday greetings were received from Fred and Harriett Long. Fred comments "We are both in excellent health and enjoying life on the Blue Pacific."
