1949

Rus Blackwood (114 Campus Rd., Clinton, N.Y.). "Just to summarize where I've been since last reporting some time in the late years of decade before last; M.A., Colgate 1951; Instructor there '50-'51; Thesis: Intuitionism and Mysticism in the Thought of Henri Bergson; Ph.D., Columbia-Union Theological Seminary, 1957; Dissertation: Problems of Religious Knowledge in the Thought of Albrecht Ritschl, William James and H. Richard Niebuhr; Assistant Professor Hood College '54-'57 and Hamilton College from '57 forth. Betty and our daughters Cynthia and Rebecca are the joys of my declining years. Have an old farmhouse, many rooms, view of Adirondacks and golf course ... all but Adirondacks owned by the college. The teaching is fun, Hamilton students frightfully bright but distressingly lazy at times. I teach History of Philosophy, History of Western Religious Thought, and Great Religions of the World. I hope in the near future to make a trip through Eastern parts of the world in order to further my acquaintance with the religions which I lecture about. As a dividend, here are some bits about some of our associates:

"Peter New wins the J. F. Dulles award for the most traveling since graduation. I believe that he commutes across the country weekly. Richie Hunt continues for the Providence-Washington, or is it Washington-Providence ... at least it involves God and Country, though not Yale ... attempting to live down reputation he created by underwriting raincoat material washed away in the Connecticut floods of years ago. Chuck Yardley is now a master of the cha-cha as well as actuarial devices in New England. Elliott Baritz has cornered the market in beer can openers and metal buttons. Irl Marshall has become a television personality, commenting on business prospects for young college graduates. Reed Parker has mastered the stock market through his Dartmouth degrees, a law school degree and a fine crystal ball. Joe Kelley combines his charm and an M.D. for undoubted success in Cleveland."

The following note from P. New confirms the contention made by Blackwood above: "Mary and I will be going to Europe on March 6 for three months. I'll be connected with the Institute for Social Research in Oslo, Norway. Then we plan to be in the East after that. My wife will be teaching at the University of Minnesota this summer."

Glenn Mohrman has been elected a Vice President of Gallup & Robinson Inc., Princeton, N. J., advertising and marketing research firm. In his new capacity, he will super- vise several of Gallup & Robinson's sixty national advertiser accounts, conducting clinics on their print and television campaigns. Before his election, Glenn had served as General Service Executive and Assistant to the President. Prior to joining Gallup and Robinson in 1955 he was associated with the General Cable Corporation. He and his wife reside in Princeton and have four children.

Tom Huggins (Keene, N. H.) is peacefully resting up after a gall bladder operation, performed in high style by fellow alumnus, Elliott Foster '40. Dr. Foster indicates that this is the first such organ owned by a Dartmouth man -which he has had the privilege of attacking. The Huggins family (Ginnie and son Peter, daughters, Libbet and Posie) live in an ancient house out in the country. An extensive remodelling, which was completed in time for the head of the house to enjoy sitting amidst during his convalescence, has made the place a living gem of back woods New Hampshire architecture. Huggins, who moves about in important jobs in the Markem Machine Company, indicates he has about given up explaining the whole idea of living in the country to the vast majority of class mates who prefer the city and suburbs out of gross misinformation.
