With this issue featuring favorite Dartmouth places, lets have a telephone survey. So for the library, punch one; for the Nugget, press two. No, forget that. Ed Marks recalls the pantry in Sanborn House brewing tea after studying to midnight and then discussing the world with Fred White and Chuck O'Neill '31; a walk in the cemetery; the base of Mount Washington when on the senior trip he took a wrong turn coming down, reached the road and had to get a cab to rejoin his classmates. For Joe Byram, the Tri Kap house. For Harry Rowe, Occom Pond, skating or dinner on the porch of the DOC house: "Unbeatable!" For Howdy Pierpont, his Hitchcock room for three years with Ed Smith. For Dick Olmstead, the Tower Room, the Nugget, Wilder, Moosilauke Carriage Road, summit house and winter cabin, College Grant, trail along the Connecticut River. "A tough question," says Dick. "I loved 'em all."
Me, too. Pool table at the Zete House, trudging up the Carriage Road on sealskins and racing down, Cotty Larmon's administration class accompanied by my wire-haired fox terrier Pete, meals senior year at Mrs. What's-her-name's on Wheelock with Al Christie, Joe Byram at al., carving canes at the senior fence, the lacrosse field when Dutch Litzenburger whipped my pass by the Harvard goalie for our first win ever over the Crimson. Tell me your favorite places for a future column.
Sadly, we have lost Fritz Browning and Bob Hanna.
