1929

Thank you Rip for coming to my rescue! This column has been delayed beyond my September 15 deadline for many reasons, but the main one of class interest is that I wanted to include notes on the mini-reunion.

What a great advantage to have classmates living at Kendal, which, if you don't know, is located right next to the Chieftain Motor Inn. Friday and Saturday dinners and cocktail hours were held at Kendal, and the hors d'oeuvres and meals were excellent and beautifully served. Fifteen classmates, 12 wives, six widows, two daughters, and one cousin attended at various times .Hopefully next year more will attend since accommodations have become so much easier to deal with.

The football game was a great success also, with Dartmouth defeating Penn handily.

A nice letter from Tina Dickey Stearns tells of the changes in Chris Dickey's life. As of October she will be giving up their Hanover home, and she will be a permanent resident of Ganservoort, N.Y., with daughter Tina and Stew Stearns '54, and she will continue to spend summers at Lake Champlain with Sukie and other members of the family.

We have many fond memories of good times spent with John and Chris after moving to the Hanover area.

Mary Burke tells us this is Dick's sixth year of paralysis. This summer she was able to visit for two weeks with their daughter Molly in Montana while daughter Helen stayed with Dick.

Earl Fyler's widow Harriet Morgan Fyler died July 26 in lowa, and a memorial service was held for her at Burke Hollow, Vt., in August.

This being September, leaves are turning brilliant in the Upper Valley, and tour buses with "leaf-peepers" are coming through Hanover daily. You may all be great at keeping your accounts, but Rip "spoke" to me with this little verse:

What shall I do with this extra hour? I hardly know whom to thank; A moment so sweet (and it's often so sour)— My checkbook agrees with die bank."
