1959

Hold on to your seats! This should be an exciting column this month: I have received three letters (2.9 more .than usual). Such a surplus of material has even made me four days late in meeting the deadline. Here we go - Jose Monzo, who followed the instructions that I gave "to go blow your horn," reports that he is married to Catita Castro (no relation to Fidel) and they have a one-year-old baby girl. Jose is working for the Shell Company, Panama, as retail and aviation assistant to the sales manager. He received training for this position in King-ston, Jamaica, and in San Juan. Puerto Rico. Jose wisely avoided the subject of salary since he assumes that everyone believes he is underpaid and overworked.

Dirk Frankenberg has landed in, or, more precisely, on Sapelo Island, Ga., where he is an Assistant Professor of Zoology and a Research Associate of the Marine Institute at the University of Georgia. Dirk prepared himself for this field by taking graduate work at Emory University where he received his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Biology in 1960 and 1962 respectively. At the University of Georgia, Dirk is conducting a research program into the ecology of the marine bottom fauna communities off the coast of Georgia. (Sounds to me like he is simply a way-out and way-under social worker.) Dirk and his wife Susan extend their invitation to any '59's who are making sojourns to Florida to give them a call on the way through the Sapelo Island, Ga„ area.

The annual epistle from Paul and Jane Egner relates many events that have taken place in their lives. In order of occurrence we have the birth of a son, Thomas George' Soon to follow was the acquisition of a job for Paul, namely - a sales trainee with the Shell Oil Company in Oakland. This was preceded by new living quarters at 3645 Diamond Avenue in Oakland. They both long for the reunion but haven't very high hopes of making the trip from California to New Hampshire.

Dave and Cynthia Marshall have returned to Hanover where Dave is studying for his Master's degree at Tuck School. Dave is quite happy to be back in civilian life again I am sure. Jon Herriott is at Johns Hopkins University where he is working on his Ph.D degree in Biophysics.

Our reunion leader, Tom Seessel, will not be empty-handed at the "Fabulous Fifth " Tom has become engaged, and by now married, to Dianne Wiener of Pelham, N. Y. I guess he felt the reunion needed a woman's touch. That's really dedication!

A June wedding is planned for RogerCondit and Karyl Ann Allyn of New LonN" H. Roger wiU be graduated from the School of Medicine, Tufts University this spring. Pete Bulkley and Elizabeth Gillespie of Merrick, N. Y., became engaged and are also married by this time. No news like old news.

Bob Friedman has become engaged to Pat Morrison of Albany, N. Y. They will be married in June following Bob's graduation from the New York University College of Dentistry.

Just in time to make the column we have news of a future Dartmouth scatback - William Howard Colehower, born February 4 to Bill and Tina Colehower, in Philadelphia.
