1920

Hi, Folks! After a bit of a respite, since no class notes were published during the summer months, we are back at the old stand again. The mailbag is not very heavy but for better or for worse here we go to press.

Glancing through the May la issue of Life we came across two or three pages of photographs with the headline caption "Ex-Queen Soraya - Bermuda" ... "Soraya in Search of Solace" ... "she went fishing as the guest of an avuncular American," ... host, New Jersey luggage maker, Theodore S. Cart. The photos depict the "avuncular" Ted on land and sea as the gracious host.

A note from Bing (Howard W.) Whitaker expresses the hope that something can be worked out to get members of our Class together more frequently. He suggests a gettogether either at a game in Hanover or at the Harvard-Dartmouth game. I have written him suggesting that he work out something for the Harvard-Dartmouth game, perhaps starting with a dinner the night before at the University Club in Boston. Incidentally, Bing's son graduated from Dartmouth in 1952 and from law school this year. He is a practicing attorney in New York City, is married and has two children.

Tommy and Anne Thompson, on their way out to Denver to visit Tommy Junior and his family, arrived in Chicago toward the end of June. Nate Whiteside and Laddie Myers took them on a sightseeing tour of Chicago's lake front and then back to the University Club for lunch where they were joined by Nate's wife Mildred and Don MacKay. After lunch the ladies went to Marshall Fields so Anne could buy some presents for her grandchildren. Bill Embree '21 showed up and joined the men for an hour's gabfest. Laddie reports that Tommy looked extremely fit and weighed within a few pounds of what he did when he was at his peak as a world champion hurdler. Late in July Tommy left for Germany where he coached the Armed Forces track team for a 40-nation meet at Brussels scheduled for the end of August.

Incidentally, Tommy Junior, who is in the life insurance business in Denver, also manages to fill a job as assistant track coach at the Air Academy. His mother says that he plans to have his military contacts pay off in ample life insurance policies.

Carl K. Lenz, president of Kennecott Sales Corporation, recently was elected a director of Kennecott Copper Corporation. Congratulations, Carl! Pete (Waldo B.) Potter, director of advertising for Eastman-Kodak Co. in Rochester, N. Y„ was elected a vice president in May. Congratulations, Pete!

In the July 3 issue of Furniture World appears a most interesting story about Carroll Swezey and the Patchoque, Long Island, department store Swezey & Newins of which Carroll is president. It seems that this is the 64th anniversary of the founding of the firm and the management and employees went all out to make the most of that fact. The male contingent grew beards characteristic of the day when the business was founded, while the womenfolk whooped it up in the tradition of the Floradora Girls and on a Gay Nineties theme generally. The photographs accompanying the article are most interesting. Editorial comment was highly commendatory.

We were delighted to receive the announcement of the marriage of Helene Maxwell Hooker to Joseph Hillyer Brewer on June 12 in New York City.

This is to report that one of our longest holdout bachelors has at last succumbed! I understand from Edwin M. Stern, who was best man, that Roy L. Rubel and Emma Waters Hanlon were married on May 9. According to the Sterns, Roy is the luckiest guy in the world to get one of the nicest girls the Sterns are privileged to know.

Those of you who pretend to keep watch of our classmates' lineage will be interested in the marriage of Frank and Marion Morey's daughter Keren to David W. Hepworth, Dartmouth '50, in Glens Falls on June si. That the bride "never looked lovelier" and that "Dartmouth men appear to get rangier and handsomer" are truisms most applicable here in the opinion of Eddie and Virginia Bowen and others who attended the nuptials. Frank's son Brockett was a member of the wedding party. He is married to the daughter o£ a well-known '18er, the late Arthur L. Zulick whom many of you may recall. The show is all on the road now for our Frank and Marion, as Barbara, their eldest, was married some years ago. She, incidentally, brought a flower girl along for this particular event.

Al Haas' son, George, Holy Cross '57, is now an ensign in the Navy on active duty. His oldest daughter, Barbara, was married in June. Paul H. Goddard '55, son of Dick Goddard, has been appointed Assistant Personnel Director of United Life and Accident Insurance Company in Concord, N. H. Prior to joining United Life's Management Training Program he spent two years in the Navy. He is married and has one daughter.

The Lappins went to the Pacific Coast on their spring vacation. Quite a hop for an old automobilist, Jack! I suppose Anna did most of the driving. Fred and Dorothy Hamm took off from their home in Vero Beach and drove to Key West, Fla. A beautiful picture postcard arrived with the comment "Did you know that we are now 350 miles further south than Cairo, Egypt, and like it better? Having great time in beautiful Florida."

Archie Lawson had a heart attack earlier in the year from which I am informed he is recovering nicely. Good luck Archie!

We record with a full sense of sadness and deepest sympathy the passing of Bud (Hosea B.) Phillips' wife Leila. On behalf of the Class I extend sincerest sympathy, Bud.

Al Frey spent the month of July on the Business School faculty in Ann Arbor, Mich., in connection with an Executive Development Program. He reports an interesting letter from Sel Mack's widow, Anne. Anne is an attorney-at-law in East Aurora, N. Y., and in addition to her law work recently taught commercial subjects for about 2½ months in a local high school. Their son Bill recently graduated from Yale Law School and has a fine position with a law firm in Connecticut. Andy, their youngest son, is going to Nichols and doing very well. He and Anne spent a week in Washington in March. They saw Sherm Adams who arranged for them to meet the President and to see his paintings and parts of the White House which are not open to the general public. Their daughter Eleanor was married a year ago last August and lives in Lansing, Mich., where her husband is finishing his engineering studies.

EDITOR'S NOTE: The modesty of the class secretary prevented him from reporting that Charles F. McGoughran, secretary and director of personnel of the Sinclair Oil Corporation, had recently been elected a director of the Fifth Avenue Association.
