1954
If you have survived the holiday season, let us remind you that you are now in reunion year. On the weekend of June 17-18-19 'Fifty-four will be reuning with Classes '55 and '56 in Hanover. If you haven't combined your vacation plans with these dates, do so.
There was a husky crowd at the Princeton firehouse after the Green-Princeton game. The classes listed above were on hand for a beer and hot-dog gathering planned by Dick Hogarty '55 whose Dad is firechief in town. Either at the game - one of the best we have ever seen - or in the fire station we saw at least fifty 'Fifty-fours and their wives.
A number were repeats from previous fall contests, but we saw the following new faces among the crowd: Bob Adnopoz, Don Berlin, Billy Rex, Bob Berry, Hap Winslow, Walt Clarkson, Pete Kenyon, Jerry Evans, John Fenn, Ward Gypsom, Dick Franklin, Ray Freud, Art Gelier, Jerry Goldstein, Dick Grassey, Herb Hillman, Kent Klineman, Dave Grogan, Joe Loew, Dick Krimm, Dane Low and Mike Morrissey.
Also there were Bill Murane, Dick Pearl, Clyde Smith, Paul Sullivan, Ruel Smith, Bill White, Ed Winnick, Ed Scott, Bob Kirkpatrick, Cliff Evans, Chet Gale and Bob Jeffrey. Rod Rockefeller, recently named a director of the International Basic Economy Corporation (IBEC), and Bob Vorsanger, U. of Michigan law grad, serving his clerkship with the law firm of Breslin and Breslin of Hackensack, N. J., were on hand too, as was Lon Chaikin, who pinned your correspondent to the wall and informed him that contrary to class column reports he "is not now and never has been engaged." If the firehouse gathering was any indication, June will be plenty of fun.

George is still with the Cuyohoga County Coroner's office and Western Reserve University, a combination which includes work with police training programs and investigation in small town homicides. George's Wigwam neighbors will be heartened to hear that he still has that monstrous, barking German Shepherd of yesteryear guarding his doorstep.
