The members of this class have asked repeatedly, as many others have before: XVhy is it that the Harvard School does not have an Alumni Association? The answer to this is simple: because nobody has ever started it. The class of 1929 has said therefore: We shall start it. W'ill you help us?', XVe asked them to wait until the alumni cards had gone out and the answers had come in so that they would have something to work on. In one of the alumni letters, we asked for an expression of opinion concerning the formation of such an association. The answers were overwhelmi-ngly enthusiastic, and gave as reasons for the formation of an alumni association: to keep up connections between former students and facultyg to promote a feeling of loyalty: to publish news notes: to get together once a yearg to further the best interests of he schoolg to serve some constructive purposeg to preserve interesting con- tactsg to develop loyalty and enthusiasm for the schoolg to keep alumni in touch with each other and with the school. The comments were- will do my best to helpg great idea: should have a wonderful response: am heartily in favor of itg let me know what I can dog should certainly be suc- cessful if modest in aim and scopeg should by all means be formed, with or without dues: every school needs the support and interest of its alumnig is of beneht to alumni by bringing together old friendsg a loyal alumni group is a school's greatest assetg shall be much inter- ested in what comes of it: happy that the class of 1929 is taking stepsg alumni should give enthusiastic supportg shall be happy to cooperate in any wayg should welcome any member of 1929 who would come to see meg there are plenty of alumni to make the association a live oneg will give my wholehearted supportg the association should be highly enjoyable if not benehcialp am sure all the other alumni will receive the association with enthusiasmg deserves whole hearted support of allg hope the association will be founded and continuedg would like to see Harvard at the top. After such response, it hardly seems as though an alumni association could fail. This year would seem a particularly propitious one for its formation, for our commencement speaker on june 1 3, 1930, is an alumnus, Charles H. Hamill, of the class of 1 886. Up to the time of the printing of these notes. we have asked a number of men to act on an alumni council to meet with members of the class of 1929 for the purpose of organ- izing the association. The following men have consented to act on this council, and the list will be completed within a short time. Daniel Schuyler james C. Ames Herbert Paul Zimmerman Raymond E. Daniels Abraham S. Hart Henry C. Bartholomay Charles Greenebaum Edward B. Mallers Joseph L. Block Aubrey D. Piggott Robert Eli Straus Melvin A. Pfaelzer John H. Hardin Edgar L.

FOREWORD Twenty-five more years have passed, we are down to the present dayg the class of I93O has barely left the shelter of our wings to go to College, and that of IQZS has just been pushed out to make its way in the cold world. So this is more or less as Vingt Ans Apresf' If only we were Dumas, we might make the adventures of our many heroes a thrilling narrative. As we are not, you will have to take it as it is,-condone the errors, pardon the impertinences, and believe it or not. NVe undertake this task in a somewhat different spirit from the last, which covered the years 1886-19og. There we suffered the disadvan- tage of not having a personal acquaintance with most of the old boys, -of not knowing which were angels, and which the contrary, who tried to escape J0hnny's chill and watchful eye, and who tried Schoby's patience to the limit. XVe had many delightful letters from these old boys, and occasionally we even saw one or two,-gray haired and dignified gentlemen in private oihces guarded by watchful secretaries. One could not help being somewhat impressed by their rank and titles. QI-lowever, even so, one can't help making mental reservations, when they didnit or Wouldn't answer letters, we were sure it was because they had been very bad in school, and had been kept in for hours.j This time. many more of the old boysn are remembered with interest and amusement. One can not quite be impressed by them, even when their oiiices are labelled Vice-Presidentv-for just then one happens to remember how they threw spit balls, or dressed Mercury in bath towels on the Drexel Boulevard cupola,-or speared cottage puddings from Dan's back window. or stayed after school to learn Thanatopsis. And then, my dear boys, all your new dignity has vanished, and are highly entertained by it! PW 121 CE3 ll il iv ll li l ll I L l i l l l l i i i l l lliix l l i We li i l yl -DUI fi g.,f 'im-
