1922

The sorrowful loss of Steve Kenyon left 1922 with two important vacancies. Steve was not only our highly-esteemed newsletter editor, he was also a member of the class executive committee. To fill these positions, Ike Miller has consented to be editor of "The Twoter" and Ray Atwood to be the new member of the executive committee. And, as reported previously, Dick Stetson is serving on the committee in the vacancy left by the sad passing of Ted Davidson.

It is no novelty for a Twoter to have his picture on the front page of a newspaper. It has happened many times to meritorious classmates. Hence it was no surprise to see Warren Daniell thus in our local gazette, the ValleyNews. It was extraordinary, however, to see him pictured playing golf with another man in early January on the snowless course of the Hanover Country Club. Hanover without snow in January! What is happening to the world? Still, Warren - at 79 father of four sons and two daughters, and grandfather of 21 enjoys golf at any time, but in January he'd rather be ski racing.

Most of us found out years ago "you can't win all the time." Others, like Mai Clarke, as the following note indicates, have only recently discovered that truth. "Just back from National (age 75 and over) Tennis Tournaments in Providence and Charlottesville, Va., which I lost, after winning the indoors in San Francisco. As a result, I'll be #2 this year (1979) after being #1 in 1977 and 1978. My buddy and tennis partner, Clarence Chaffee of Williams College, will be #1, bless his heart." Come on, Mai, 1980 is just beginning and you'll only be 78 years young in June.

One of our noted class sons, Roger C. Cramton Ed and Dorothy Cramton being his parents has been serving since 1973 with high distinction as dean of Cornell Law School. Roger received his A.8., Phi Beta Kappa, in 1950 from Harvard. He was first in the class of 1955 when he earned his J.D. from the University of Chicago Law School. According to Who's Who in America, he began his professional career as a law clerk with our Judge Sterry R. Waterman in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the second circuit, and subsequently served with Justice Harold H. Burton of the U.S. Supreme Court. Successively he was a four-year member of the faculty at University of Chicago Law School and a nineyear professor of law at University of Michigan. Later he was assistant attorney general in the U.S. Department of Justice and was on several distinguished law committees before going to Cornell. He and his wife have been married 28 years, and, with their four children, they live in Ithaca. This academic year, however, he will be on a sabbatical fellowship at Stanford's Institute of Graduate Studies. Both Roger and Sterry began their learning at St. Johnsbury Academy, which justly points with pride to both of them.

To the regret of the nine '22 women of the North Country, Allie Hoyt has left Hanover for Indianapolis, where she will be nearer her daughter Barbara (Mrs. A. R. Baker Jr.) and her son Carter Jr. in Glenview, Ill.Allie will be missed when the '22 ladies have their frequent get-togethers.

Earl Fredericks of Winter Park, Fla., has left the class in sorrow. An obituary will follow.

And now in late January, despite stringent conservation, the 1979-80 fuel oil bill for Dartmouth College will be in the range of $2.6 million - over $2 million higher than eight years ago. The ivy doesn't keep the buildings warm.
