Our talk this time can be clearly divided into three main sections of business. The first is the business of getting married, the second is the business of having children, and the last is the business of earning money. I will not attempt to put them in any particular order of importance but here is five minutes of lively reading.
In the business of getting married may Pete Buswell and Miss Elizabeth Pelen lead off. Pete is studying at the Harvard School of Business Administration and his fiancee, who is the daughter of the Counselor of the French Embassy in Washington, is attending Wellesley. Paul Raslavicius and Miss Susan B. Cheney have announced their engagement and plan to be married this month. Paul will be graduated from Harvard Med School this June and Sue, after completing studies at Mary Hitchcock, is now studying at UNH. Dick Burch and Miss Suzanne Cooper plan to be married in July. Dick has passed through the U. S. Army and now is with the F. W. Dodge Corporation in New York City. Suzanne graduated from Concord Academy and Katharine Gibbs in Boston. Clyde Brownstone and Miss Diane Yukon have announced their engagement. They will be married in Kansas City during May, and then return to the New York environs where Clyde has a really tremendous business in factoring that is booming along.
Also in June, Merwyn Bagen and Miss Lora Hurwitch plan to be married. Lora is now attending the Simmons College School of Publication while the "old man to be," after teaching Zoology for a year at Dartmouth, is now studying medicine at Boston University. Miss Cathrine P. Will and Jim White have announced their engagement. Jim is a laboratory assistant and a candidate for a doctorate in ecology degree at Rutgers, while his fiancee is a senior at Douglass College at Rutgers. Dick Hume and Miss Carol Greenbaum will be married in June. Dick has just received his Master of Arts degree from Ohio State University and is now an instructor in the English Department there. Carol is a senior at O.S.U.
A wonderful letter from Shelly Kjellenberg is as follows:
I was married to Marilyn Medl of Evanston, Ill., on September 6, 1958, and am attending the University of Chicago Law School. We now have a daughter Suzanne, who is meaner and sassier all of the time. Following graduation in June, I will go to work for a Chicago law firm and we will move to suburban Park Ridge.
Here goes with what news of others I have. We rather frequently see Dick and Vernie Renn who live here in Chicago where Dick is finishing his third year at Northwestern Medical School. A short while back we saw relatively newlywed John Donnelly and his bride of three months, Karen. They were down from Minneapolis where John is with Minneapolis Honeywell. Also at a Dartmouth Club outing were Tom Donohoe and his wife Sara. Tom is with the Chicago office of Price, Waterhouse. John Price of the Northern Trust Co. in Chicago was also there. I talked with Dick Sunderland and his charming wife Carolvn. They were married last summer, following Dick's completion of Navy Duty, and are now both living in Baltimore. Fred and Mary Meinig recently had their second child, a son William. Fred is still in the Air Force somewhere in Mississippi or the South and at last word is shipping over for a career there. Tom Macy is still footloose and fancy free as a New York bachelor with Price Waterhouse's office.
This is a great letter, Shelly!
Jim and Carole Howe are living in Cranford, N. J., for the present but in a short while will be moving down to The University of Alabama where Jim has recently been appointed Instructor of English. Jim and Carole have a daughter Laura Lee, a southern name to go with the southern school. Also in the expanding column are Dick and Mary van Riper who, on April 17, produced another van Riper, Laura Elizabeth. Dick and family are living in Derby, Conn. Mr. and Mrs. Mike Lasser also have added a girl to the growing class when, last March 30, Carol Susan joined the clan. Mike and his family are now living in New Brunswick where Mike is teaching English at Rutgers Prep.
Recently there appeared in the Knicker-bocker News of Albany, N. Y., an article about Fred Mueller. If you think about it you find that most everytime you go to the market you see Fred's last name on every package of Mueller's macaroni. Fred is the manager of chain store operations in the United States and trots all over the country making sure that his noodles move from the store shelves. An interesting point is that elbow macaroni got its name by being the part of the drying macaroni that was bent over the drying rod.
In the insurance business I have been so good at sitting at my desk that I am now an assistant manager. Ah, sweet life - a titled executive no less. Hope and I both wish you a prosperous and pleasant summer!
