1926

Our bequest chairman Kier Boyd, Pittsburgh, Pa., says life marches on when your son is about to retire from his business, and when your 22-year old twin granddaughters spend a busy weekend with you, bring ing you up to date on what the younger generation is thinking about. All this while you also keep an eye and ear open to the ways your classmates are and should be remembering Dartmouth.

In the absence of messages from Ed Emerson, Norwich, Vt., a phone call to his younger son Tom, who lives in Wilder, Vt,, revealed to us that Ed had tickets for home games on the Hanover gridiron, gets around with a cane, and enjoyed the fall foliage with improved good health, though he’s not driving a caryet.

George Leyser, Sarasota, Fla., adds one more man to our Thayer School of Engi- neering 1926 team. In the September Class Notes we failed to include Walfrid Bengston along with Herb Darling, Joe Eaton, Per Johnson, and Charlie Jost, However, the team is non-existent, since George is the only living member. Just for die record, Bill Chism ’25 earned a C.E. degree in 1927, having received a bachelor degree in 1926.

Chet Morrison, longtime Marblehead, Mass., resident, let us know that he lost Betty (Elizabedi StarkMerrill), his wife of 52 years, on August 29 after a brief illness. He and Betty lived a quiet life since he retired as senior vice president of State Street Bank and Trust Cos. of Boston. The class gives its sin- cere sympathy to Chet.
