1931

As this is written (to meet a deadline), the October issue of the MAGAZINE has not yet appeared, so my opening plea in my first column for news from all quarters has not yet reached you. Naturally, the pickings to date have been limited, and I'm afraid this third column will be too. With your help, I'll try to do better next month. Thank goodness for the notes that accompanied the class dues checks to Lucy!

Doug Wilson reports that he is still working on his new edition of Emerson's works for the Harvard University Press. Two volumes have appeared, and the third (Essays, SecondSeries) will be out this fall. While his editorial work must be most demanding, Doug also finds time to be president of the Friends of the Public Library in his Anniston, Ala., hometown and newsletter editor for the local chapter of the Retired Officers Association.

Class President Ori Hobbs and June have moved into their newly-built mainland winter home at 4219 Charing Cross Road, Sarasota, FL 33583. Ori attended his first bi-week- ly Dartmouth Club of Sarasota luncheon of the season in mid-October and reports that '31ers Larry Tucker and Dick Henry were there, looking well and feeling fine.

While on the Florida beat, Ernie and AngieMoore report that they had a steaming hot summer in the Zellwood area (and most everywhere else down there) so Angie didn't play any golf at all and Ernie was "down to two to four times a week."

Now for the travelogue department. Tomand Constance Williams had what they called a "spectacular European safari" this summer that included Austria and Switzerland and way points. However, they said Florida looked good when they got back to Boca Raton, although they missed the fall

New England color. Art and Virginia Seepe had a two-week stay during the summer in the Rhineland country. On another trip this year, they met Chuck and Emmy Hill on the Blue Ridge Parkway, up West Virgina way from their Hendersonville, N.C., home. The Hills are now also in Boca Raton. The Seepes had plans to summer in Maine at Tryon.

One of the longest recent journeys was en- joyed by Dan and Betty Denham, who had a 45-day trip to and through the Orient, includ- ing two days in China. Dan says that on the way back the tour by-passed Manila because of the anti-American unrest there. They returned to their Longboat Key, Fla., home on Bogey Lane in mid-October and are both fine.

John Nelson writes Lucy out of Denver, Colo., that he recently had something of a physical set-back but now is "feeling better." Keep it up, John!

Finally, let's have another massive cheer for Don Stoddard and the job he did on the 1983 Alumni Fund campaign. He has been awarded the "Chairman's Citation for Outstanding Performance for [his] consistent and dedicated work as head class agent Without your help, the continuing and in- creasing success of the annual Dartmouth Alumni Fund could not have been possible."

Now let's make Don's job in the 1984 campaign easier and still more productive by getting those bigger checks in earlier. Tax considerations may recommend a pre-year-end contribution.
