Tuck School
Dick Hall T'42 and Ping Pingree T'38 are the new manager and secretary, respectively, of the Boston Clearing House. Dick, moving up from secretary, succeeds John Wallace T'36. The group's annual dinner meeting was April 9. Speakers were Messrs. Frey and Davis, on "The Advertising Industry - Agency Services - Working Relationships - Compensation Methods"; and Mr. Hill, who "painted the Tuck School scene with his deft brush strokes, his breathtaking colors and his lively feeling for the more practical humanities" (according to the advance publicity).
The New York Clearing House meets this month.
Just off the presses: A Tax, Program forSmall Business, by Mr. Lent, No. 20 in the Tuck Bulletin series. Another recent piece by the same author: a paper on the price effects of tax increases, for a "compendium" of the Joint Congressional Economic Committee on "The Relationship of Prices to Economic Stability and Growth." The committee has scheduled open hearings on this subject this month: as part of these hearings, Mr. Lent is to take part in a panel discussion in Washington on May 20.
More about authors: "Looking Around: Do Business and Religion Mix?" by Mr. Broehl, appeared in the March-April Harvard Business Revieic.... And Mr. Quinn has signed a contract with Ronald Press for his Evaluating Economic Research, the manuscript of which is due September 1. He may now be addressed as Dr. Quinn; he got his Ph.D. from Columbia in March.
Now some news we hate to report: Mr. Logan's moving to Columbia's Graduate School of Business in the fall. He'll be missed.
Recent "outside speakers" have included Fred Cushing T'47, general manager of Currier & Company, Lebanon; Ted Shapleigh '23, partner in the Hamilton Company, New Haven; Charlie Zimmerman '23, president of Connecticut Mutual Life, and Theodore Noone, an analyst for Colonial Management Associates, Boston.
Socony-Mobil, co-sponsoring Mr. Broehl's "Businessman in Society" course for the whole semester, has so far sent seven speakers: George Holton, retired board chairman; Thomas Phelps, assistant to the board chairman in charge of public relations; Rae Jackson, chairman of the coordination committee; John Calvert, assistant regional coordinator for West Africa; Herbert Willetts, vice-president for employee relations; Professor George S. Gibb of Harvard Business School and Professor James Luther Adams of Harvard Divinity School.
On campus to address the Tuck Discussion Series recently have been Moorhead Wright, consultant to GE, on "The Businessman's Role in Society"; Mrs. Charlie (Opal Marie) Zimmerman, on "The Role of the Wife"; and former New Hampshire Governor Hugh Gregg '53h, on "The Role of the Businessman in Politics." The last talk in this year's series — on "The Obligation of the Businessman to the Community" - was by Mr. Dickey April 28.
One speaker per meeting is enough for most groups, but not for the newly formed Tuck Wives Club. This group called in not only Eliot Mover '45 but also Mrs. Mover to talk on "The Executive and His Wife."
