He set the glass on the bar and studied the lemon peel left in the bottom. He stood a few moments, his eyes on the lemon peel. Then he went home to bed. He drank alone although he was in the crowded men's bar of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, with the conversation and laugh ier washing heavily around him. He may have felt a throng of ghostly eyes upon him as he drank, and heard a ghostly echo of . young men's- voices raised in "Far Above Cayuga's Wa ters. He may have. But if he did, he gave no sign of it. Just Keeping Pledge Blair, in his 80th year, had kept his 61-year-old pledge , of reunion. Twenty -eight Cornell University undergraduates had vowed in 1894 to meet every five years as long as they lived. Blair alone showed up Wednesday night, precisely at 8 o'clock, as per the signed pledge.' "I didn't mean to ' live this long," he said before he left. Thirteen boys in the Psi Upsi lon fraternity house at Cornell originally made the pledge, . get ting the idea from a novel popu lar in the 90s. The word spread, and soon 28 in all had signed. They pledged to meet at the Old Waldorf ' Hotel, gathering first in 1900. And because of the year of the .first meeting they called themselves "The 1900 Club." You could get two martinis for a quarter at the Old Waldorf bar that year. Blair recalled, "twice as big as this.': The pledge "was unvarying First a drink at the bar. Then everybody stand and sing the song about their noble alma mater, Far Above Cayuga's Wa ters, then to table. Helicopler Balfalion 'Rescues' Airplane Fort Riley, Kan. U.R) They called it "routine" for the. 71st Helicopter battalion when a Pia- secki H-21 Helicopter "rescued" a whole but battered L-19 air plane from a river sandbar. The L-19 crashed on the sand bar one day and . was back in flying commission a little more than 24 hours later, despite the fact it was out of the reach of trucks. Carl Hanson, a test pilot, and other Piasecki experts attacked the problem.-They rigged up a sling. 'A salvage crew was set down on the sandbar , by the helicopter. The damaged plane was then stripped of some of its loose parts and loaded into the sling. The Piasecki, ' a twin "beater" type, did the rest. At Fort Riley's Marshall field Army men said the job was one a helicopter unit are prepared to do as part of their daily rou tine. -' RENT TO OWN A New or Used SPINET PIANO ..(..- ..-.

" Before his silent toast Wed nesday night, Blair said:- "They started dying on me. There's nobody left.'.' That was not pre cisely correct. Only three at tended the 1950 meeting. Seven still live. But illness, or extreme distance, kept them from this year's reunion. Blair skipped dinner. Didn't feel hungry.
