1939

As you read this, the spirit of Yuletide is gaining momentum, but as I write this, I'm sweating out seven weeks of strike and creative enthusiasm for this secretary has waned.

Not so, however, for Dr. Bud Little of Helena, Mont., who has been named chairman of an international competition committee for ski jumping under the auspices of the National Ski Association. Squads of U. S. jumpers will train this season in camps around this country, then a four-member U. S. team will be selected to compete in the international jumping championships at Zakopane, Poland, in February. That's a wee distance over the wall and beyond the Brandenburg Gate. Good luck!

Archie Mallon, assistant principal and head of mathematics department at Chatham (N. Y.) Central School, has been selected as one of ten administrators of an in-service course for elementary mathematics teachers to be conducted at State University College at Oswego, N. Y. And JohnPage has been named manager of the Harrisburg, Pa., office of Kidder-Peabody and Co.

Bob Schill has been named vice-president, marketing for Central Vermont Public Service Corp. in Rutland. After Tuck School and the Navy, Bob was with the Brooklyn Union Gas Co. Prior to that he taught economics at Wharton School and Rutgers.

Dr. Charlie Osgood, president-elect of the American Psychological Association and head of University of Illinois Institute of Communications, was the subject of a feature column in the N. Y. Post in September. Charlie sees the cold war as a psychological problem and is devoting much time to a new approach on nuclear disarmament alphabetically tagged as GRIT (Graduated Reciprocation In Tension-Reduction). In fact, he is becoming quite a consultant on the subject. He advocates the gradual withdrawal of our nuclear striking bases ringing Russia which, he feels, would result, through world opinion and practicality, in their doing likewise. We're all for any approach that curtails the home fall-out shelter binge and we wish him Godspeed.

We received a letter from Don Campbell of the class of '44 who is director of teacher training at Middlebury College, Middlebury, Vt. Don is chairman of a committee to establish a memorial fund for Dr. ChuckGrant to perpetuate the kind of scholarship and instructional work that was close to Chuck's heart and which the committee hopes will be continued. Any donations from his classmates should be directed to Walter E. Brooker at Middlebury College.

And now, because of the annual need to up-date your Xmas card lists, we offer, as part of our free service, a raft of new addresses. At the same time, on behalf of your alert and Scotch-blooded executive committee who are always saving stamps, we hope Kris Kringle brings each of you a goody.
