1939

Mid-winter doldrums and an acute case of writer's cramp. It must be catching because our only letter came from Browny who was skiing as usual at Sugar Bush and returned via Hanover and saw Jane andHowie Olivers who were doubtless doing the same. He also announced that Dr. Harrison Jones was made director of the National French Institute Center at St. Lawrence University which is a summer training course for the Gallically inclined and only French is spoken clear through le chien days.

Earle Seeley was elected president of the Bridgeport Exchange Club. He lives at 56 Fern Circle, Trumbull, Conn., with wife Jean, daughter Elizabeth 16, currently at the Stuart Hall School, Staunton, Va„ and son Earle III, 14, a pupil at the Fairfield Country Day School. Earle is assistant sales manager of Borden's Dairy and also president of the Nichols Improvement Assn. The Newtown (Conn.) weekly Bee, which gave us all this information failed to tell us who Nichols is or why he is in need of improvement, but suffice it to say, he is in good hands.

Another clipping showing Bob MacLeod looking younger than springtime with lots of dark hair and bright shiny eyes tells us he is now publisher of Hearst Magazine's "Seventeen" all of which seems fitting and proper.

The National Sugar Brokers Association elected Danny Dyer its new president. It has 450 member firms in the U.S. not counting Castro and the news blurb further states that our boy is also active in Bronxville with the Dartmouth enrollment committee. Danny was working in the sugar business even as an undergraduate during his summer vacations. He is now a partner in B. W. Dyer & Company, sugar economists and brokers, a member of the New York Coffee and Sugar Exchange, Inc., and past president of The Sugar Club.

DePaul University's board of lay trustees has a new member. Bill Sexton was appointed in December. Bill is vice-president in charge of branch operations for the John Sexton and Co. and lives in Hinsdale, Ill., with his seven kids. Our only comment here is if Eddie Chamberlain doesn't want them, Bill at least has a way greased into DePaul.

The Daily Record-American of Boston printed quite a broadside on Harry Gates a couple of months ago about his ending his "silence" and purportedly other personal slants. Harry and his wife, Vida, have been living on a religious community farm near New Boston, N. H., as part of a group of thirty adults and 35 children. He has led a useful and creative life working and teach- ing in pursuit of his beliefs. From the many pictures that accompanied the long article it is obviously an agreeable life too. It men- tioned a trip he took last year visiting old friends MacLeod, Dusty Rhode, Lou Highmark, and others.

The president of the American Psychological Assn., Prof. Charlie Osgood, is in the news again. This time lecturing at Northwestern University on "The Human Side of Policy Making in the Cold War." Bill Means is the assistant general sales manager-school dept. at Harcourt, Brace and World, Inc. in New York. His home address is Apt. 17-A, 251 East 51st St., N. Y. 22. George McLaughlin has moved to 340 High St., Dedham, Mass., and Perry Thomas now lives in Annapolis, Md., on Harness Creek Road.

Bill Cunningham is now a vice-president and public relations officer of the Bronx Savings Bank where he has worked since graduation. He is also a member of the Bronx Rotary Club, a past chairman of the New York State Savings Bank's Public Relations Forum and, loyally enough, a member of the Dartmouth Club of Westchester.

And from the Tryon, N. C., Bulletin comes word that Don Bridge has resigned from the Booimer Spring Hinge Co. to become general sales manager of Washington Steel Products, Inc. of Tacoma, Wash. Don and wife Elsie have four kids, Toby, Marcia, Jean, and Amy whom the article states will be "based" in Tryon until the end of the school year.

John Atwoed, who is constantly moving, has done it again. This time to Route 4, Box 83, Wayzata, Minn. Bob Kwis has moved to South Carolina, with the fractional address of 2831½ Burney Drive, in Columbia. Bill Russell has left Massachusetts for Keene, N. H., as reported two months ago, and now lives at 104 Bradford Road. Lt. Col. Gene Weeks lives at 3730 North Dittmar, Arlington 7, Va., and Capt. MylesStandish Weston at Jecelin Center, 1900 Broening Highway, Baltimore 24, Md. Radio magnate Roy White has changed stables too, and the address is intriguing: Calumet Farm, Route 2, Lexington, Ky.

We belatedly received word of the death of Dr. Howard Fischbach of Cincinnati, Ohio, on Nov. 25th. '61. Details will be found on the In Memoriam pages of this or a subsequent issue.
