Henry S. Embree lias been named as 1930's new Memorial Fund Chairman.
That was the headline news emanating from the meeting of 1930's Executive Committee held at the Dartmouth Club of New York on October 31. The naming of a new Memorial Fund Chairman became an item of business before the meeting when Cliff Michel indicated that the continual pressure of business affairs made him feel that he did not have sufficient time to give to the organizational problems which were presenting themselves so far as 1930's active Memorial Fund campaign was concerned. Notwithstanding that Cliff tendered his resignation as chairman, he will continue to do active work on the Memorial Fund in the New York area. There was enthusiastic discussion of Memorial Fund affairs at the Executive Committee meeting, and Hank, our new chairman, was given assurances by the Committee that he could expect the whole-hearted and enthusiastic support of every '30 man in the important job he is undertaking on behalf of the Class and the College.
Another highlight of the meeting was the election of Gene Zagat as a member of 1930's Executive Committee. The Class is indeed fortunate in having on the membership of its Executive Committee men whose interest in the Class and the College is such that they are willing to travel miles to a meeting and are willing to sacrifice a considerable amount of time from their businesses in order to attend those meetings. At the October 31 session, the following Executive Committee members, present and emeritus, were in attendance at the all-afternoon session: Lee Chilcote, Bud French, Al; McGrath, Charlie Rauch, Charlie Raymond, Scott VanDerbeck, Charlie Widmayer, Pete Callaway, Al Dickerson, Micky Emrich, Johnny French, Milt Mclnnes, Nelson Rockefeller, Vic Borella, Si Chandler, Carl Haffenreffer, Hank Embree, Joe Golan, Ed Schuster, Cliff Michel and Alex McFarland.
Following the meeting, the Committee members and their wives were the guests of Vic Borella and Nelson Rockefeller at a delightful cocktail party at the Studio in Music Hall. Pat Weaver was in attendance at that very pleasant occasion, as were John and Sylvia Tiedtke, who prolonged their stay in New York in order to be with the 1930 group.
At the game in the Yale Bowl on the following day, we were fortunate to get at least a fleeting glimpse of Kirk Jackson, Red Gould,Jack Crawford and Mem King. Buck Steers, who was only recently elected Executive Vice President of the advertising agency with which he has been connected since 1944 and which now bears the name of Doherty, Clifford, Steers & Shenfield, Inc., was also at the game.
The Raymonds, Bowlens and McFarlands attended the Rutgers game in Hanover and we reached the conclusion that 1930 should have had a reunion tent somewhere on the campus. We saw Johnny Tiedtke and BillJessup who reported that they had been staying the previous night at Bob Keene's where Jack Keating was also in attendance. We ran into "Blackie" Bartram at the Inn corner and he was combining the game with a visit with his daughter who is at Colby Junior College. At the game we ran into Nels Rockefeller and Johnny French and saw Hank Odbert. It was also reported that George Lord and TomDunnington were at the game but we didn't get a glimpse of them.
Announcement was made on October 1 that Chuck Faye had been appointed Assistant Freight Traffic Manager of the Western Pacific Railroad, the Sacramento Northern Railway and Tidewater Southern Railway Company, with headquarters in the Western Pacific Building in San Francisco. This well-deserved promotion was good news to Chuck's many friends and classmates, notwithstanding that it occurred at a time which made it necessary for Chuck to change what had been his plan to attend the 1930 Executive Committee meeting in New York. .. . Gordon "Dobbin"Granger, who heretofore has been Office Manager
and Assistant Comptroller of Monument Mills, Inc., became Assistant Treasurer of the Great Barrington Savings Bank, in the Berkshires, on October 1. Dobbin lives in North Egremont, Mass.... A highly complimentary report has been received of the oustanding job being done by Buzz Whitelam in his capacity as Manager of Employee and Community Relations at the Telechron Department of General Electric in Ashland, Mass.... HankEkstrom was named President-elect of the New Hampshire Golf Association at its recent meeting at the Nashua Country Club.
Dr. Clarence "Pitter" Fraser, who is recognized as an outstanding obstetrician in Washngton, D. C., was named as one of 13 members of an Advisory Committe on Municipal Hospitals to study different aspects of the public health set-up of the District of Columbia and to report to the District Commission.
. .. Did you know that Billy Moore was cochairman of the National Golf Open Championship which was held in Dallas, Tex., last June? ... Gil Lowery, who is Plant Manager of the Johns-Manville Corporation in Tilton, N. H., was elected a member of the Board of Directors of the New Hampshire Manufacturers Association at its annual meeting held in Manchester in October.
A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone in the 1930 family.
