We are happy here in the South to have Davidson College host Dartmouth in one of our big victories of the season! Word from Davidson was that it was a spectacular game full of cheering and revelry and a beautiful, sunny day.

Remember to reserve June 16-18, 1989, for our 15th Reunion. The reunion will include a visit from President James O. Freedman, and tours of the Hood Museum of Art, the Fuller Boathouse, and the new Berry Sports Center. Also in the plans are a dinner in Thompson Arena, a live radio show at our tent, a Glee Club concert, a picnic at Storrs Pond, and plenty of fun.
