1945

I assume you all had a pleasant summer. It was sure cool here in New England, but was extremely sunny. One of the great surprises of this season was the new class newsletter put together by new editor, GeneWilkin; a most impressive and attractive lay-out to say the least. Don’t forget, however, that the success of any class publishing venture rests ultimately on your willingness to send along the news of your activities. The Class Secretary’s and Class Editor’s Associations have established guidelines as to how, hopefully, material should be presented in this column and the newsletter. News of general interest to all Dartmouth men should find its way into this column while material of a more personal and class interest would be recorded in the newsletter. That is the general policy, but like most “guidelines,” Gene, Harry and I will occa- sionally find ourselves wandering outside of them a bit. So send your news to me or to Harry and Gene and between the three of us we’ll see that you get due notice. I might add here that it is most important that you keep me informed of any changes in jobs, family, address, etc., so that the class rec- ords will reflect such.

Lawyer Jim Knowles has seemingly hung up his political hat, for a press release from Chicago indicates that he was recently ap- pointed an assistant secretary in the trust department of the Northern Trust Company, Chicago. It looks like West Virginia will have to struggle along without him.

Colby College, Waterville, Me., an- nounces the appointment of Charlie Holt as its new hockey coach succeeding Jack Kel- ley who has moved to Boston University. Charlie has been at Northwood School in Lake Placid, N. Y., for several years and compiled a fine record as a history teacher and coach there. Incidentally, Charlie’s predecessor at Northwood was Jim Fuller- ton, the Brown University hockey coach. At Colby, Charlie will be an assistant professor of health and physical education, coach freshman baseball, and assist with freshman football. Best of luck!

The Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn, N. Y., announces the appointment of JohnG. Truxal to a vice-presidential position. John, head of the electrical engineering de- partment since 1957, was named vice presi- dent for educational development. He is the author of “Controls System Engineering” and the co-author of “Principles of Elec- tronic Instrumentation.”

John Bernheim, Wrightstown, Pa., has been appointed director of the newly cre- ated office of Development at George School. John has been with the U.S. Gov- ernment for the last eleven years, most of which was spent in Japan where he was Deputy Chief of the Tokyo Bureau of the Foreign Broadcast Information Service. Both he and his wife, Doris speak Japanese, and for their two children, Alfred, nine, and Emily, six. born in Japan, life in the U.S. should be quite a novelty.

Maurice Frye has been elected President of the Greater Boston Real Estate Board’s rental Housing Association. “Mo” has been associated with Street & Cos. since 1949, be- coming a partner and stockholder six years ago, and has been extremely active in Real Estate Board matters.
