1901
A letter, directed to Frank Cudworth, from Mary E. Phelps, widow of ClarenceL. Phelps, asked us to name the persons shown in the picture of the sixty-fifth class reunion.
The picture was sent, by the Class, to those who were not at Hanover in June. Probably there are others who would like to know the answer to this request. At least the picture should have been received before this date.
Here is the list, from left to right, back row, Harry Gilmore Jr. '34, W. L. MacMichael. Columbia '44, Thomas Cudworth Mac Michael, Bob Packer '67 "Campus Host." Next row, Mrs. W. L. Mac Michael (Betty Jane Cudworth), George French,Tom McGovern, and Frank Cudworth. Next row, Mrs. Clifford C. Fifield, Harry Gilmore,Harland Cate, Mrs. Thomas F. McGovern, and Mrs. Frank Cudworth. Front row, Susan and Anne Mac Michael, Bob Packer '67, our campus host, was a fine young man and before the reunion had run its course, we realized, fully, his ability to guide us and keep us on time for our appointments.
A letter to Frank Cudworth from Janet A. Porter, daughter of Jack Andrews, who died March 10, 1956, follows, in part, "I enjoyed reading, and reading again, your report on the occasion of its 65th reunion. However, maybe I neglected to notify you of mother's death, since her name was mentioned in the list of widows of deceased classmates. I was delighted to see the class still has a good number of acting members."
Dated May 23, 1966, another letter from Marion B. Stevens, widow of Everett M. Stevens, received by Frank Cudworth, follows: "Dear Cuddy: This month's ALUMNI MAGAZINE sent me hunting for the Reunion question card for '01. Can't find it! Did I send it in? If I didn't - should regretfully say that I shall not be able to attend on June 10-11 and 12.
"It would be a pleasure to greet you all again. My regards to each one. I know you'll have a wonderful get-together."
Another letter of regret, from ChanningCox; in the latter part of May he wrote to Frank Cudworth, as follows: "It begins to look almost certain that I cannot attend the Reunion. I am bitterly disappointed as I had looked forward with so much anticipation. I shall be thinking of you and hope all of you will have a grand time singing, 'There was an old man named Bill.'
"My love to all the 1901 boys and girls." A letter from Frederick "Fritz" Haskell to Frank Cudworth regrets that he would not be able to attend the reunion in June. He says his eyesight, several months ago, disclosed cataracts in both eyes. Probable operation later. His wife, Christine, is enjoying fairly good health, and they join in the wish that both could attend the reunion.
