1907

Classmate George Grebernstein's ability to get things done has been recognized recently (in September) by his appointment as program technician in the taking of the Federal Agricultural Census in New England during October and November. Greb was a logical choice for the assignment since he had served as administrative assistant and technical instructor in the taking of the Federal Business Census in 1949, and the Federal Decennial Business Census in 1950. The Census staffs appear to be fully aware of Greb's competence in any task which he undertakes.

Some members of '07 did not attend the Harvard-Dartmouth game on October 24, because of the vile weather. But one '07 man came on from Chicago to see the game, as he has done regularly in other years. His name is Dwight Hiestand, and it could be that such moral support contributed to the gratifying result of the game. Dwight was accompanied by Allan Brown, who came down from East Andover, N. H. Dwight's youngest son, Lieut. Col. Harry H. Hiestand, has recently returned with his wife and children after three years' service in Germany. He and his family are now settled at the Army post in Fort Leavenworth, Kan.

Louis Cardell Gerry received on October 5 the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce's new Annual Roger Williams Award for outstanding service to the community. The award was presented by U. S. Senator Pastore, who praised "Lou" for his "unselfish devotion of time and energy to serving the people of this state." Lou has taken a special interest in health and education activities for many years and he had directed Rhode Island Hospital's vast expansion program. He has also served the Rhode Island Community Chest, the United Fund, and the Boy Scouts. In 1944, he was the recipient of a "Roger" award for community service, a forerunner of the award presented to him on October 5, 1959. And, in 1957, he was named "Boss of the Year" by the Providence Chapter of the National Secretaries Association. '07 should be, and is, proud of our Rhode Island classmate. Keep up the good work, Lou!
