1958

Harken back to that hopeful day in September when Dartmouth opened against Princeton. Hal Douglas, one of the stalwarts who gave us a championship football team, was watching in Portland, Ore., with a "small but vocal Dartmouth crowd." Hal and Jeanie have watched a daughter graduate from Cornell and a son from Texas A&M. Their youngest son is a senior at Whitman. As Hal expresses it, "THANK GOD!!" Professor Sumner Sharpe of Portland State University occasionally crosses Hal's path. Sumner is a professor of urban studies and also a partner in a planning firm. Hal is in the wholesale floral and gift supplies business. Thanks for the nice note, Hal.

The building is a double ellipse of green glass, one of the loveliest buildings in this city.

If you are wondering why this column ends here, it is because you didn't send me anything to print.
