From there, he was named in the first class of Nieman Fellows at Harvard University.

He later served as press officer for John G. Winant in the International Labor Office and worked with the office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Affairs under Nelson Rockefeller '3O. In 1943, he joined the Army and was called to Washington for duty in the OSS shortly afterwards. Following a year and a half in England and Switzerland, he was released from active duty in October, 1945. He then returned to Dartmouth for a year as assistant to President Dickey in establishing the new "Great Issues" course.
