1937
Doggonit! We can't hold it in any longer— we got a complaint. For the past two months this department has carefully edited copy and submitted a picture (which are hard to come by) to be run at the same time. And for the past two months the copy has appeared but no picture until the following month. Now we're willing to conjure up even cash that you'll find a strong likeness to Rev. RogerBarney somewhere nearby this column, but if you desire the full story please refer to last month's MAG, paragraph 3. (OK, Widmayer, you're faded.)
Tony Genewich is back home. As we all knew, he had been spending the past few years as a teacher-coach at Brewster Academy in Wolfeboro, N. H„ but due to certain changes in the Lynn school personnel Tony has taken a job with the Cobbet Junior High teaching mathematics.
New job, same outfit, for Briggs Austin. He has been appointed office manager at Eastman Kodak Company's branch in Los Angeles. He joined, the photographic training course in 1939 and worked with the advertising department at stores in Philadelphia and Los Angeles. He was assigned to the statistical department in Rochester until leaving for Navy service in 1942, where he was photographic officer aboard the SS San Jacinto. In 1946 Briggs returned to Kodak's sales department serving around New Orleans first, then in 1948 transferring to Los Angeles.
In a job like this a secretary sometimes feels akin to a gent who works on nothing but commissions. You never know where the next buck is coming from but you sometimes fall unexpectedly into the big ones. Not entirely true as to size this month but quite in keeping in principle we have had two phone calls which produced the following. FrankIrwin is now living at 43 Sterling Place, Edinburgh, Scotland, where he is in the Consulate as Liaison Officer since last July between America and Scotland. As was formerly reported, he moved over completely with car and family. Stan and Connie Berenson teamed up with Stan and Irene Lappin to spend last New Year's weekend from Saturday till Tuesday in Hanover for skiing and relaxation. The Berensons had their oldest daughter along. There was a New Year's Eve party there with Bill Cunningham in attendance and the whole weekend was reported as highly successful. This editor can also plant a personal recommendation alongside theirs as we did the same thing several years back and recall it as one of the most outstanding holidays ever spent. Incidentally, Inn says Jack Devlin was there too at about the same time and MaiMerritt a couple of weeks later.
Maybe some of you have noticed an ad that's been running in this MAG by the Royal Park Inn and Guest Houses, at Vero Beach, Fla., which is a Treadway Inn and managed by John Packard '25. They're having an informal Dartmouth "Get-together" during the period March 25 to April 15 with a one-third rate reduction. If anyone plans to be in Florida around that time write to them or me and we will forward particulars. Apparently it was tried last year and was highly successful.
Skulch and Comb-Bits from All Over
Leroy Cooley now Casualty Manager in Syracuse, N. Y., for Atlantic Mutual. .. . BobGreene recuperating at his home in Aurora, Ill., from a major operation to correct a leg condition traceable to playing football in Hanover, but expects to be up and about by the time this hits the press... . Jim Hathaway now in his third year of teaching at Wharton School in Industrial Relations in Pennsylvania, also working for his Ph.D. in Economics at the same time. (You can reach BillHoyt at 7202 Beechwood Drive, Richmond, Va., where he is Budget Director for a Department Store).... Dr. John Schilling says nothing really new except headed for Eniwetok sometime this coming spring. .. . GusFarwell finds out that the new neighbor who moved in across the street last November was none other than John Chapman.... Dr. My-ron Wright claims a family of four with another due this spring, also an old farm in South Londonderry, Vt„ where he would welcome any touring classmates summers. On a quick trip to Mexico early last summer he stopped off to see Sey Ochsner who he reports is now on the Staff of the Ochsner Clinic in the department of Radiology.... Les Koenig served as Associate Producer for Paramount on Detective Story, which was released last fall, and also on a new daughter Victoria, born last July. He and Bob Kirstein still continue in the record business in their spare time but it's still a mystery as to what they record. Les also made a trip to New York last August and looked up Herb Levine who took him on a personally conducted tour of his shoe factory, of which Herb is President
... Speaking of new children and short notes here's one from Dr. Dick Woods in Kingsville, Tex., and we quote, "3rd child, son, Richard R., born July 25, '51."
Here's a good letter from Stu Naramore whose address is now 6850 Orion Ave., Van Nuys, Calif., which he says is some change for a bunch of Connecticut yankees and we go on to quote,
"Sold my small retail store before my shirt went too. Took a month's auto trip across country for a visit to Calif., but decided to stay here, God and pay-check willing, and let you lads shovel snow. Presently an inspector at Western Hydraulics, at least until they learn otherwise. Saw Kim Hall in La Canada for a few minutes. He is a chemist with Cal-Tech and sweating out a new house he's building. Fourteen years have been a lot kinder to Kim than yours truly, he still has ALL his hair and looks no different than in 1937. Would like to hear from Bill Webster, Bob Hall, Connie Schuck, Warren Meredith, Art Falk and Tom Jacobs."
John Lindsay, who is so completely wrapped up in his Pre-fabricated house business, mentioned he and family moved into one of them a month after it arrived on two trucks, and it consists of four bedrooms and two and one-half baths. He and wife Lucy are also proudly displaying a new daughter Sue, born last October. It would seem almost that Sue was a pre-fab, too, as her birthday falls on exactly the same day, except two years later, as their son Jay's.
Speaking of guys who are all wrapped up in their work we have a friend whose wife will probably never forgive him for this story, but it's true. Seems he decided he was going to marry her and she being willing, that was that. Next thing to do was make the arrangements which included procuring a license. So on a certain day he drove his blushing fiancee to the city hall, walked up to the clerk and soberly killed three birds with one stone by announcing in no hushed tones and in the following order, "I want a fishing license, a hunting license and a marriage license." And they lived happily ever after.
AS EPISCOPAL ARCHDEACON, the Ven. Roger W. Barney '37 (left) confers often with Bishop Hall of New Hampshire and assists actively in many phases of diocesan administration.
FOR EXTRAORDINARY HEROISM in Korea, Col. Allan Sutter '37, USMC, now Executive Officer of the Dartmouth NROTC Unit, was awarded the Navy Cross. In the Hanover ceremony shown above, he is receiving the medal from Capt. M. T. Farrar, Unit commandant, as President Dickey looks on.
