An embarrassing error was made last month in telling you that Phil Dostal's boy was looking at Dartmouth with the thought of entering next fall. You see, Phil ain't got no boys — only girls! What we should have said was Don Tenney's boy.

There are several important promotions to announce this month. Scotty Rogers has been made president of the Parker Seal Division of Parker Hannifin Corporation. This company makes O-Rings, and, if you don't know what O-Rings are ask one of your engineer friends. If he can't tell you, drop Scotty a line. At any rate, with plants on the West Coast and in Kentucky, we imagine that Sco will do his share of traveling from now on.

Art Brown has been appointed general traffic manager by the St. Regis Paper Company. He had been traffic manager since 1952, and has spent his entire business career with St. Regis, having joined the company in 1940. He took time out for three years of service in the Navy, attained the rank of Lieutenant, and then returned to the paper business. Art is active in transportation industry affairs and is presently treasurer of the New York Traffic Club and a director of the Associated Traffic Clubs of America. In addition, he is a founder member of the American Society of Traffic and Transportation and active in many other trade traffic organizations. He was recently elected a director of the Rutland Railroad. Art and Mary have a daughter, Catherine, who is a freshman at the Georgetown School of Nursing and a son, Art Jr., who is in school in White Plains.

Bill Hutchinson has left the Saturday Evening Post and joined the advertising sales staff of Life. Prior to his association with the Post he had spent seven years with the now defunct Colliers.

Loring "Copper" Nye has been appointed assistant vice president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston.

Ric Davidson is now president of Chesebro-Whitman Company, scaffolding and shoring contractors of Long Island City, N. Y. A graduate of the Thayer School, he joined Chesebro in 1957 as vice president, prior to which he had been chief of construction and administrative engineer for seven years with Eggers & Higgins, New York architects, and before that he was with the general contracting firm of Barr and Barr.

In the extracurricular field, Howie Sommer has been elected president of the University Club of Chicago. Bill Rearden, intrepid owner of sports racing cars, got first in class as well as a class record in the Tourist Trophy Race in Nassau. His car used a souped-up Jaguar engine and an Aston Martin body, which gave rise to the name Jagas.

Bill Bumsted is still in Caracas with Johnson & Higgins. He and Nancy came North last fall on vacation and managed to get to Hanover for the Cornell game. Art Mountrey was spotted there along with his daughter, aged seventeen, and her date. Bill also saw the Princeton game with the Van Cleves. He sat next to Bill and Jeanne Wrightson who had vacationed in Europe, and who hope to spend some time in Montego Bay, Jamaica, this winter. On their way home, the Bumsteds stopped at Dorado Beach in Puerto Rico where he saw Bill Smallwood, a big wheel on the island.

Chet Berry writes from Rochester that he is still doing research in physics for Eastman Kodak Laboratories. The' three younger Berrys are Linda (entering Middlebury next fall), Chuck thirteen, and Lillian ten. He is active in Dartmouth interviewing work in the area and formerly was ably assisted by Ken Newbert, prior to his departure from the area. There are four more classmates in the area, Fran Imo, Andy Halbleib, Hector Sutherland and Pete Shedden. Pete is an officer and director of the Rochester Transit Corporation. Chet still skis with great enthusiasm, principally at Swain Ski Slope some sixty miles from Rochester. It is here that he often runs into Lee Blades. Both of them have an interest in this development. Lee is in the highway contracting business in Hornell and is chief interviewer for Dartmouth applicants in that area.

John F. McDonald is still with the Veterans Administration in Boston and he is the proud father of a three-and-a-half-year-old son. Mac, Larry Herman and Jack Fitzgerald make up an interviewing committee which is meeting with some regularity these days looking over the prospects for the class of 1964.

Drs. Sey Wheelock '40 and Dave Stephenson'46, who are members of the alumni interviewing committee, discuss Dartmouth withan interested Denver high school student.

A croup of '41ers and wives gathered at the home o£ Dan and BailUe Provost to celebrate Dartmouth's football victory over Princeton. Seated, left to right, are: Kathy Friedlich, Terpper, Baillfe Provost, Winnie Tepper, Jane Hagen, Jane Hanks Agnes O'Connor; (standing) Don Hagen, Dan Provost, Don Hanks, Red O'Connor, Bruce Friedlich.
