The off-year informal 46th reunion of '07 was celebrated in Hanover on June 19-21. Attendance was 29, including wives and guests. Headquarters in Chase Hall, one of two Tuck School dormitories, were most satisfactory. The class group dined together at the Norwich Inn on both Friday and Saturday evenings. Again Marguerite Heneage extended the hospitality of her home, as she has done so many times before. Though excessive heat marked both reunion; days, those who were privileged to enjoy another June weekend in Hanover felt fully rewarded.
Those present were: Coburn, Jack and Mrs. Downey, George and Mrs. Grebenstein and Victoria, Rocky Hazen, Mrs. Heneage, Herb Hinman and his brother, Bob and Mrs. Kenyon, Lane, George and Mrs. Liscomb, Oliphant, ant, Earl and Mrs. Richards, Cully and Mrs. Pierce, Bill and Mrs. Smart, Southgate, Stevens, Williams, Art and Mrs. Winslow, Bill Sanborn and a friend, Mrs. Sass.
Bill Walker and his wife Jane expected to attend the reunion until Bill ran into trouble. He suffered a heart attack which immobilized him completely for a time. His recovery has been most encouraging, as of late August, and Bill is expected to be in good form before starting for Florida for the winter.
Harold Jennings retired on July 1 after more than 45 years of service with the Central Maine Power Company, of which he had been treasurer since 1924, and vice president since 1935. The list of Harold's civic interests is long and impressive. He has been president of the City Council and of the Board of Aldermen; president and director of the Chamber of Commerce, and of the YMCA; president of the Augusta Country Club; and director of the Augusta General Hospital to name only a few of his honors.
Tute and Mrs. Worthen were unable to attend the reunion in June, for the very good reason that they had just returned from nearly two months in Europe. "Much of the territory was traversed that was included in a trip that Sam Barnes, Dick Hazen, Mike Smith and I took in 1906."
Vic King is a classmate who has seen more of the world than most of us. He returned in June from a three-months stay in India, sent there and elsewhere, Vic explains, by the foreign department of his company since his retirement two years ago. He has built factories in Wales, France, Belgium, Germany, Sicily, and elsewhere; but the most interesting ones to him, he says, are the one in India, the one in Japan, and those in Peru and Chile. Vic has been associated for a long time with American Cyanamid Company, Calco Chemical Division, Bound Brook, N. J.
Jim Brown's death last May was reported in the In Memoriam columns of the July MAGAZINE. His classmates will recall that Jim's unusual abilities were in evidence throughout college years. His varied interests, including politics, banking, and public relations, as well as law, disclose the full and successful life that he led until his physical disabilities incapacitated him and finally took him away. He was deeply devoted to the memory of Dr. Tucker throughout his life. Born in Bellows Falls, Vt., Jim was buried in the village of Plymouth in that state.
