1952

It would appear by now that we have just about said it all. There is just one more month to go before our 25th and I suppose the decisions are all made. All the earlier predictions for a huge turnout are proving to be very accurate and the coming month should be very exciting for all the families planning to come to Hanover.

There are a number of classmates we haven't mentioned in earlier columns, including HughLefkowitz, Ed Blair, Dick Lathrop, Kirk Spurr,Chuck Liddle and Conrad Carstens. They're all going to be there.

And they will be joined by Em White, PhilTrowbridge, Charlie Weed, Cyril Gsell, JohnMcCrillis, and "Whitey" Fier. These men and their families will be coming for the most part from the Northeast.

Although I know we may have missed a number of people we still believe our turnout will be one of the best in the history of the College and we'll fill in the missing names in our post-reunion report.

Not much other news to report this month. I do want to close with a few comments about the importance of your gift to the Alumni Fund in this reunion year. Will Rooke, Jack Barclay and their agents have been working extremely hard these past few months to obtain as much support as possible for our commitment to the College and I hope each of us will seriously back up their efforts with the maximum gift possible. Those of you who had an opportunity to hear one of Dr. Kemeny's spring talks know how diligently the College is working to hold the line on increasing costs of operation and also the importance of financial aid to all students. Our contribution is not a small part of the College's financial support and, especially for the 25-year Class, the alumni support is most vital. Therefore, another last minute look at the maximum you can do would be quite in order.

We trust you will all have a safe trip to Hanover. See you next month!
