Eastern Pennsylvania

ON JANUARY 19, we met at the Bethlehem Club in Bethlehem and elected the following officers for the ensuing year: president, Art Zulick '18; vice president. Bob Simonds '25; secy.-treas., Milt Shultz '30; executive committee: Jim Rick '31, Val Klopp '09, Louis Ekstrom '12, Kingsbury Badger '29, Guy Mehlhorn '37.

Quite a lengthy discussion preceded the election among the members of the nominating committee. Carl Erdman '37 presented the slate to the group, and all of us thought he would never get finished with the build-up he was giving these newly elected officers and with telling us how hard the nominating committee worked to select men worthy of the offices and well distributed geographically.

Those at the meeting were Louis Ekstrom '12, Bob Simonds '25, Ken Simonds '25, Rob Ritter '18, Jim Rick '31, Bill Bucher '32, Andy Marshall '22, Ken Smiley '21, Rog Graves '37, Johnny Mullen '35, Carl Erdman '37, Val Klopp '09 and Milt Shultz '30.

A few days ago it was the pleasure of your secretary to meet and welcome a new member of our group. He is Tom McGrath now located in Reading as a representative of International Business Machines Corp. All of you will meet him at the next gathering of the clan.
