1931

From Ruth Slaughter came a copy of the New Hampshire Historical Society's summer 1992 newsletter containing a photograph of the 1930s Yankee infielders Gehrig, Lazzeri, Crosetti, and Red Rolfe. I sent the page to John Chamberlin in the hope that John might get the photo printed in the class newsletter. Ruth also enclosed a recent VanceDickerman letter relating stories of classmates in Philadelphia in the 19305. It was so entertaining that I sent that also to John.

In late September Lucy Cogswell wrote that she was feeling much better and was without physical problems other than having to slow down.

On a copy of part of a music score from his "Wild River Fantasy," Al Bucher reported that his broken ankle had healed sufficiently for him to go camping and fishing on Wild River for three weeks in late summer. Al suggested that George and His Ark made a good gift for children of all ages. Inasmuch as part of the aforementioned score was written for the bassoon, I'm sending it to RalphHunter for a rendition at our next mini.

A note from Joan Karasik told of Mon's tremendous respect and deep love for Dartmouth. I report with great regret Mon's leaving us on July 27, the loss of Bill Marsh on April 13, and that of George Stevens's wife, Helen, on October 4.

Continuing from my mine of returned questionnaires: Charlie Dwyer's best news in 1991 was wife Marnee's recovery from a triple bypass. Anne Rogers's best news was her grandson's acceptance for admission to the Institut d'Etudes Politiques in Paris. ArtEcker's research seeking the cause of trigeminal neuralgia, or tic douloureux, continues to be exciting. The biggest worry for JohnRogers, as with most of us, is becoming ancient. Rita Esersky's best news was winning $100 in the New Hampshire lottery, perhaps a portent of future luck in other fields. RayRobinson wished luck to Ed Hanauer. JackEwers hoped things at Dartmouth were not so bad as claimed by The Review. And DwightRand's one-liner to the College was to put its financial house in order.
