New York (U.R) Charles H.
Blair lifted a martini glass Wed
nesday night and downed the
pale liquid quietly all alone.
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originally made the pledge, .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. -'

Every five years they met,
their . ranks . dwindling as ; the
years passed. They toasted the
memory of those who dropped
away and kept on meeting. The
Old Waldorf was torn down.
They transferred to . the new
one. - ' . "
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. Before his lone
lifted glass, he said: '"Fred Full
er, one of our group, once said
we'd be sorry we started this
thing you know, because when
you get to the last man . . ." v
Was he sorry?
Blair downed his tpast. "No,''
he said.. "I'm happy. It's been
a happy day." -
