1952
Just like swallows coming back to Capistrano, the brawn and muscle of Dartmouth's football power return to the Hanover streets each September I. Hot or cold, rain or snow, they come - a sure sign that it's time to start my first column of the year.
Another sign of the season is the disappearance of my next door neighbor, line coach Jack Musick. With the team on two-a-day practices plus chalk talks, etc., in between and evenings, these coaches are somewhat on the busy side.
Last year I predicted a title. This year I've decided to hedge a little - it'll be a good season with the Green in there right down the line. Princeton's the target once again.
There's one contest, however, where there's no question about who's winning. That's eligible and enchanting women versus unsuspecting '52 bachelors. I "cite the following evidence:
On June 27 in Denver's Church of the Ascension, Arnie Cowperthwaite was wed to Lucia Jane Boyle. The newly weds are living at 1357 Williams Street, that city. And then there's Jim Fowler. The big ceremony for Jim and bride Eileen Elizabeth Wagner took place on May 9 in Rocky River, Ohio. The bride attended Ohio State University.
And then, Jack McClintock. Jack married a Sweet Briar gal, .Stella Moore, in Easton, Penna. Jack's with the Boston law firm of Withington, Cross, Park and McCann. And Gene Klenk, too. Gene's bride is the former Anne Carver Stribling. She's Radcliffe. The ceremony was in her home town, St. Louis. Gene's now at Temple University School of Medicine.
And Dwlght Ketchum too. Dwight's bride, Jacqueline Richardson, is a Goucher graduate and is with the Foreign Policy Research Institute of the University of Pennsylvania. They were married in August in Wayne, Penna.
June was graduation month and marriage month for George Johnson's bride, the former Cynthia Jean Mahoney of Haverhill, Mass. The graduation, from Skidmore, came first, then the marriage in Center Harbor, N. H. Dr. George and bride are living in Hanover where he's a resident at Mary Hitchcock.
The "farthest traveling bridegroom award of the month" was won going away by Jack McCrillis who journeyed from his Boston bank position to the 50th state, Hawaii for those of you who have forgotten your GI newspaper lessons, to wed Katherine Cooper Wood. The bride is a Wellesley gal with a master's from BU. This next item is a year old but nevertheless news to the column: Flash - Bubs Richardson's wife is named Patricia and they live in Portland, Ore.
Now, listen to this, you shrinking tribe of late hour-bachelor reunion howlers: a late August wedding was planned for Miss Henriette Pennypacker and one Robert B. Binswanger, '52's stellar reunioneer. She is a Wheelock College graduate and teaches, of all places, in Princeton, N. J.
Here's a second item of special interest to reunion night owls: Class President Bernie Lewis will marry Suzanne Hegyi of Montreal, formerly of Hungary, in October.
There are more, more. Ron Scott is engaged to Miss Sara-Barbara Zeman of Wynnewood, Penna. Sara is a Lake Erie College graduate. Ron's studying at the University of Pennsylvania School of Law. Another '52 still at his advanced studies, Stearns Morse, is now engaged to Miss Dorothy Forbes, a Vassar junior. Stearns is at McGill working on his Ph.D. in geology.
An autumn wedding is planned by Phil Chapell and Miss Allison Ward Barker of Schenectady, N. Y. She's a Colby Junior girl. Phil's with the power tube department of the GE Company. Bud Sawyer, of Madison Avenue advertising fame, will be married on November 21 to Miss Elspeth G. Henry of Linden, N. J. She's a graduate of the Cornell University School of Nursing.
September 5, deadline date for this copy, is the wedding date for Norm Logan and Miss Helen Lee Hopkins, a University of Texas graduate. Another couple that should be Mr. and Mrs. by now, although I have only the information on the engagement, has Dick Gagne as the '52 representative and Miss Margery ter Weele, representing Wheaton College.
The final item in the marriages-to-be department concerns Jay Schocnet whose engagement to Miss Suzette Dauch of Grosse Pointe, Mich., was announced in May. The bride-to-be is a Wellesley graduate and a student at BU School of Law.
And now, the lineup of proud pops: born - to Sam and Zandra Daniell, May 19, fourth boy named Brian. This completes Sam's mile relay team. When not training the boys, he s assistant to the chief manufacturing engineer at Bryant Chucking Grinder Co. in Springfield, Vt. - to Pete and Jean Stanley, March 7, third boy, name of Jon Davies — to Howieand Patti Smith, second girl in February - to Ted and Sally Haskell, second child (first boy) in May - to Joe Ware, February 9, second daughter, Susan Douglas - to Bill andPat Ford, third daughter, Frances Cooper - to Charlie and Kathy Blakemore, second child, Charles Jr. tells the rest of the story - to John and Carol Doty, third child, second daughter, named Kathy - to Dan and Wendy Hall, in June, second child, named Wendy Priscilla.
Three final items will conclude this month's report now that we've engaged them, married them and reproduced a little. Kent Calhoun reports Bill Biggs fully recovered from a very serious auto accident in Chicago. Cal himself has moved from the Windy City to Minneapolis. He's still with Rverson.
Bob Brace has taken a new job in Boston, leaving his bank position in Worcester, Mass. He's now with C. H. Sprague & Son, Inc., wholesale fuel dealers. Bob started in July.
Frances and Carol Chisdes have left Broadway for lowa where both are studying for Ph.D.'s in Classics at the State University. Fran is a teaching assistant. Carol has a fellowship. The new studies and new environment both please Fran and wife.
It's time to stop. I feel the editor's copy pencil already chopping at my precious news. How about that new baby? Or the new job? Or promotion maybe? Put it in an envelope and let Uncle Sam do the rest. He's got my number.
Secretary, 15 Rayton Rd., Hanover, N. H.
Treasurer, 33 Dean St., Attleboro, Mass.
