Your Class Notes this month, fellows, will be remembered more for their brevity than their inclusiveness. Few are the bits of news for the column.
We are more than pleased, though, to be able to report that Wally Poorman has just been elected a vice president, director and member of the executive committee of Esso Export Corporation. He has been an Esso Standard vice president since 1956 and a director since 1954.
Promotion has also come to Jim Tyler who has become manager of finance for the large motor and generator department of General Electric. Jim is living in Schenectady where his headquarters are located.
In New Hampshire the Class has been twice honored recently. Once when ReadLewin was awarded a Certification of Appreciation for fifteen years of uncompensated service to the nation as a medical advisor to the Selective Service Board of his county. Second, when Bill Putnam gave another of his well-known talks, this time on "Personal Stewardship," before the members of the Congregational Women's Guild in Lebanon, where he is also president of the medical staff of the local hospital.
Dick Tilt in Ridgewood, N. J., has just been awarded a special plaque by the New Jersey Society of Certified Public Accountants in recognition of his service as vice president of the group. The award was made at the annual dinner at the Down Town Club in Newark.
From the All Pets magazine comes an excellent review of the accomplishments of Harold Kaplan:
Harold M. Kaplan is a professor of physiology at the Southern Illinois University, and is active in various animal-life groups. Among the latter are the Herpetologists' League and the American Society of Ichthapologists and Herpetologists. Dr. Kaplan is also a member of the Animal Care Panel, vice president of the American Society of Professional Biologists, and on the animal research committee of the Illinois Academy of Science.
He has written over thirty published papers on blood and animal diseases, a book, "The Rabbit in Experimental Physiology," published by the Scholars' Library, and has a second book under contract with the McGraw-Hill company, called "The Anatomy and Physiology of Speech."
And now, before concluding, we want to direct your attention to the third splendid paper by Win Stone about the College, the Capital Gifts campaign, and you. He has done a grand job in the adjoining columns, and you'll be a better Dartmouth man for reading it.
