1944
This starts off a new year of Class of 1944 Notes; here's hoping the news is plentiful. As most of you probably already know, our first official class reunion will be held on the weekend of June 18-20, 1948, the same dates as for the Class of '43, so start laying your plans now. A reunion committee will be announced shortly and will start their task. Hope you are all also aware of the preferential football game seating which our forthcoming reunion entitles us to this fall.
