The June meeting of the Club at the Biltmore on June 27th brought to the speakers stand one Frank Leahy—and a mighty meeting it was. Ap proximately 400 members and guests were on hand to brave the tears and wails of the Fearless One and fire questions in an effort to find out what wc have in store come the 30th of September and North Carolina. In all, the meeting was one of the biggest of the year and shows promise of things to come in the way of attendance.
Formal meetings for the summer months were abandoned some time back but various activities per sisted. On August 11 th 26 of the club's stalwarts went into the real estate business in Tuckahoc and proceeded to move considerable quantities of God's geography from one spot to another in the form of divots at the Lecwood Golf Club. Again Jack Hoyt was the affable host, making complete arrangements and seeing to details that all enjoyed. Genial Jack Q. Adams knocked off the low gross honors with a 77, and that, on a rugged long course, is good golf in any man's league. Johnnie Abbatemarco proved to the rest of us that he could swing more often in the course of the day before settling down to a wonderful dinner provided by a fine non-alumnus friend, and president of Leewood.

Tom is Resident ^lanager for the Employers' Liability Assurance Corporation with offices In the Northwestern Bank Building In Minneapolis. Tom has one child. Neither Tom nor Denny show any bad effects from their years in service during the war. Both of them have put on considerable weight.

I also saw Tom Mahon^ who is special agent for the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company in St. Paul. Tom has two children. I talked to Bob Fi^erty who Is teaching history at St. Thomas College.
