1933

Rosemary and your correspondent recently enjoyed a lovely dinner as guests of Jane Hart at her home in Washington. She single-handedly produced a formal repast with all the finesse of a former "madam ambassador" and brightened the dinner conversation with tales of her experiences with Pete in their various embassies from Cairo to Jidda. Present also was her daughter, Judy, who had achieved the triumph of getting two daughters by the admissions gurus at Dartmouth and was delighted with their satisfaction at their Hanover experiences. Some time ago, Mac Field wrote us from Bay Harbor Islands, Florida, thanking us for our columns (merci beaucoup!) and asking to make sure that he continues to receive the Alumni Magazine. "As long as I live," was the devoted way that he put his desire. We conveyed his request to our treasurer, Suzanne Young. With understandable pride, Mac assured us that he was "feeling great and hoped [we] were likewise."

An official of the development office of the Dartmouth Medical School has informed us that Clarence Albaugh and his wife, both now de- ceased, had provided a large sum to the school for cancer research, and she was preparing an ar- ticle which would appreciate their contribution. Albie had an outstanding career as an ophthal- mologist in Los Angeles, serving as research sur- geon for UCLA and acting as a member of the Council of the Los Angeles Medical Association. Recent news that Yale had beaten Dartmouth by 40 points in basketball brought to mind the Greens twice defeat of Yale in one year in our time and Hal Mackey's last-minute long-range basket to win one of those games. Don't forget Rip Ripley, Mannie Sprague and Miller Wachs, who are making a pitch for contributions to the Alumni Fund.
