1936

Our 25th reunion committee has taken another big step forward in their tremendous efforts. The complete four-day reunion schedule was presented, discussed and approved before 27 class members and their wives attending the reunion meeting on the eve of the Dartmouth-Yale game. Gene and Kate Tamburi were hosts for the crowd at their Yale Motor Inn in Wallingford, Conn. Reunion Chairman, Al Gibney kept his seven-hour agenda on schedule despite the magnet of fraternal exuberance as continued late arrivals swelled the ranks. Chuck Aaron flew in from Cleveland with his detailed plans for the entertainment of children at Reunion. The almost hourly schedule he has worked out for the weekend, for ages "collegiate," "intermediate," and "younger," is one of the gayest and brightest parts of the reunion. He's even lined up baby sitters. It will be a "blast" for all children. Dick Spong came up from Washington with a successful progress report on our revolutionary type of classbook. Please cooperate with Dick and Joe Cunningham who are working now on this production: Send in the questionnaire you have received from them; send in your snap-shots, black and white preferred, but color is usable. Lou Benezet has agreed to organize a special "Hanover Holiday" sequence for our class. Bill Niss is handling the treasury. Gene Tamburi outlined the vast eating schedule for our families, an estimated 11,896 meals (including Metrecal) in four days. The facts are, you'll be royally fed. Other reunion committee members attending were Bill and Doris Crangle, Dick and Madine Morton, Brint and Doris Schorer, Bob and Dot Keller, Abbey Niss, Kate Tamburi, Eloise Gibney, Pete and Barbara Fitzherbert, Norb and Pic Hofman, John Sawyer, Bob and Theo Prentice.

Gene and Kate Tamburi again extended their hospitality after the Yale game to the class with their open-house '36 cocktail party at the Yankee Silversmith Inn which is ten miles from the bowl. Delectables, both solid and liquid, delighted the assembled classmates including Dick and Jan Knight, Frank and Elsie Weston, Karl and Dot Wolff, Tommy and Ruth Thompson, Jim and Peggy Lancaster, Morrie and Dorothy Stein, Vini and Gib Wentworth, John and Nancy Sawyer, Ed and Kay Merrill, Clif and Pearsie Porter, Lou and Barbara LeVesque, Gene and Kate Tamburi, Dick Spong, Pete and Barbara Fitzherbert, Don and Anne Robbins, Gib and Ann Sykes, Bob and Dot Keller, Al and Eloise Gibney, Dick and Madine Morton, Brint and Doris Schorer. In response to my thanking Gene for the wonderful party he said, "After all, we don't get together too often, and this has grown to be an annual occasion."

The age and dignity of a 25-year class have earned the privilege of sitting on the 50-yard line at all Dartmouth games. More classmates seen at Yale were:

Spence and Jessie Johnson, Jim Tindle, Paul and Dot Guibord, Hank Smith, Milt Johnston, Ed and Ruth Brooks, Bill and Doris Crangle, Joe Wool, John and Joan H. B. Knowlton and Freddie, Ken and Shirley Langler, Blake Hughes, Bud Horn, Ray and Jerri Builter, Fred Warne, John Greenwood, Bob and Theo Prentice, Arnie Hatch, Herb Beskind, Ben Moyer, Dick Taylor, John Mallory, Dink Gidney, Jack Kenny, Jack and Yumi Smith, Bill and Abbey Niss, George Conklin, Art Wasserman, Boyce Prince, Frank Kappler, Bill and Mignon Spring, Hank Bradford, Clark Sorensen, Ralph Butler.

A sad note to pass on to you is that of the sudden death of Jane Shurtz, wife of Fred Shurtz. Ken Langler, Karl Wolf and Dick Jewell represented the class at the funeral in New London, Conn.

In the last 25 years, the class of '36 has become renowned for their contributions and work for Community Services and Welfare. Current exponents of such public service are the following classmates: Morrie Stein, president of the Torrington Supply Company, who is heading the Community Fund drive in Waterbury, Conn. Roger Williams, publisher in Portland, Me., who is chairman of the Cumberland County March of Dimes campaign. Ken Wilson, president of Avco Corp., who has volunteered to act as chairman of the Aircraft Manufacturers Division of U.S.O. fund raising in New York; Dick Spong, who writes a daily news service that is syndicated in 265 U. S. newspapers, is heading a committee to establish the Henry Pringle memorial lectureship at Columbia's Graduate School of Journalism; and Jim Tindle, a financial consultant in Philly, who is a director of the Red Cross, Civil Defense and United Fund campaigns in Philadelphia.

Jim Sinton runs the Sinton Dairy in Colorado Springs, Colo. Jim Fortune, formerly district manager of the Grace Line office in Baltimore, has been elected Managing Director of the Steamship Trade Association. Roy Bergengren has been made President of Daytona Beach Junior College in Florida. John McKernan, Editor and Publisher of the Penobscot Times in Old Town, Me., announces sports events as a hobby on radio in Maine. You may listen to John's dulcet voice every Saturday afternoon in the fall, and on important basketball evenings during the winter in the Portland area.

Dr. Al Meyer of Rockford, Ill., says that many women can't count calories and have the figures to prove it. Paul Hessler of Wilmington, Del., says he's never been to a reunion before, and may never get to one again, but he'll be on the Hanover plain for our big 25 th.

Merry Christmas and best wishes to you all, your wives and families from Nancy and me.
