Bob Armstrong of White Plains writes that he is still holding down the job of managing editor of Electrical Merchandising, a McGraw-Hill business magazine that goes to appliance and radio-TV retailers and wholesalers. His wife Mary he describes as "a wonderously delightful nut who took up modern dance at the ripe old age of something or other, reads anything and everything with insatiable gluttony and is as a consequence both fitter and smarter than I!" He also has three daughters - Anne (7), Martha (11) and Patience (5). He adds: "Extracurricularly (funny how that word sticks with you!) I've been mixed up for some years with the White Plains Community Chest and now, after serving last year as president, am trying to slip unobstrusively out the side door."
A note from Chuck Bolte '41 tells that he hasn't seen Tom Braden for a year, but had a brief note from him in July when he accepted a nomination to serve on the Alumni Council Public Relations Committee.

Chuck says that besides Tom's wife, Joan, there were five children under the age of seven at the last count.

"Oh how I cursed my ancient 38 years," he writes, "yearned for the energies of yesteryear, and oh yes the active support of long-departed-from-our-bachelor-ranks, Bill Bumsted." He visited Dr. Alan (Bud) Johnson in his new garden apartment at nth Street and informs us they have a baby boy.

Bob Draper writes that while he was out working on a "smothered hook" the board platform at the golf driving range gave way and he fell, badly bruising his leg. Infection developed about nine days later so he called on his Dartmouth roomie Ned Hein, orthopedic surgeon, who was out working on his "slice" so lost a patient. Bob was in bed four weeks. He adds that "believe it or not, my hook is pretty well licked-the hard way." He's probably slicing now along with Ned!
