1945

"Now is the time for all good men. . It's April and the Dartmouth Alumni Fund is well under way. Eliot Mover and his assistant class agents have spent and will spend a lot of time and effort in fulfilling what they consider to be an obligation; soliciting you in behalf of the 1962 Fund Drive. They ask for cooperation and consideration. They and Dartmouth deserve your attention.

I am pleased to report to you that the first recipient of the 1945 Memorial Book grant of $100 is Edward C. Wright, a student from Sierra Leone who came to Dartmouth under the auspices of the Institute of International Education. He is studying English which he hopes to teach at the University level when he returns home.

Fred Berthold, who for five years has served as Dean of the William Jewett Tucker Foundation at Dartmouth, has resigned that position to return to full-time teaching, effective in the fall of 1963. Fred was the first dean of the foundation and has seen it grow under his direction to its present highly active part in the Dartmouth scene.

The Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn has announced the appointment of Dr. JohnG. Truxal as vice president for educational development.

BOXING THE COMPASS: Joseph H.Weaver has been named Creative Advertising Manager for the Grocery Products Division of General Mills. Joe has been with General Mills since 1956 and was formerly associated with Nebraska Consolidated Mills. E. John Alexander is a research chemist with the Sterling-Winthrop Research Institute of Rensselaer, N. Y.

Jim MacPherson is Executive Vice President of the New York firm of Vicker, MacPherson and Warwick, Inc. A BBD&O Account Executive in the Pittsburgh office is Charlie Williams with residence in Sewickley Heights. Dick Fuller reports that he has been transferred by Time Inc. from Chicago to New Canaan, Conn., and that last fall he saw his first Dartmouth football game in twenty years. That's real drought. Final thought of the month: I wonder how Bob Cate's next door neighbor Cheddi lagan is getting along these days in British Guiana?
