1948

The past few months have seen many various changes among the Class of '48 and happily some of the news filtered down to me.

As previously reported Dick Greene married Marilyn Williams on February 23 in Schenectady, N.Y. After their honeymoon in the Caribbean Lynn and Dick will continue to live in Boston where they both work.

Another of our classmates who finally left bachelorhood was Lou Perry. On February 9 Lou married Joan Pupke of West Englewood, N.J. Lou and his bride will live in New York where Lou works as a commercial paper salesman for Associates Investment. I'm looking forward to meeting the new '48 wife soon, Lou.

One of our long-lost classmates who for many years was an officer in the Army, has finally been found. John Anderson is now Director of Laboratory at the Wheeler Hospital in Gilroy, Calif., where he lives.

In January it was announced that Al Mc-Allister was promoted to Treasurer of the Phoenix of Hartford Insurance Companies. Al has made wonderful progress with the company since starting there in 1950 and this promotion certainly is a fitting reward for his success. Congrats from all the class, Al, and good luck from here on in the new - job.

After working as a research chemist at the Lederle LaboraU .ies of American Cyanamid in Pearl River, N.Y., and receiving several awards for outstanding work, FinnSiiteri has become Assistant Professor at the University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas. He is in the Department of 0.8. and Gynecology and living in Dallas with Helen and the five children. Quite a change for the Siiteri family.

At the beginning of 1963 Charlie Herterich became a partner in the prominent New York law firm of Davies, Hardy & Schenck. Now that Charlie has finally made it, maybe he can let some of the juniors do the work so he can get home a little earlier to Morristown, N.J.

Another successful lawyer is practicing up in Glens Falls, N.Y. Ed Nadeau has been a partner in the prominent young law firm of LaPann & Reardon for several years and on January 1 the name was changed to LaPann, Reardon and Nadeau. Nice going, Ed. I hope your name attracts some Dartmouth alumni in the area through the doors. Incidentally Ed and Marion have two daughters at this point.

A couple of weeks ago while skiing with my family at Stowe I bumped into JohnnyLanzetta. When the chair lift broke down late in the afternoon Johnny had been one of those stuck high in a chair and after a cold wait was brought down by rope. I saw him that evening looking none the worse for the experience. He was nice enough to buy me a drink. Thanks again, John. I hope to reciprocate soon.

Among the new corporators elected by the Dime Savings Bank in Wallingford, Conn., last month was Jim Johnson, who has been active in many of the civic and charitable organizations in his community. The Dime is the oldest bank and only mutual savings bank in Wallingford. Jim is manager of the Wallingford Exchange of the Southern New England Telephone Company.

Dr. Marvin Hader recently set up his own office to practice psychiatry in New York City. I hope Marv doesn't find things so busy in the city so that he can't get away for a little skiing once in a while. Marv is still a bachelor.

The population movement to California which we have been hearing about, certainly seems to be influencing our classmates. After teaching in Buffalo for a few years Neal Gilbert is now Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of California at Davis. I hope that Neal, Milena, and the children don't become so attached to the Golden State they won't come back East once in a while.

It is a long way from Boston to Los Angeles, but that is where Foster DeGiacomo now lives. He had been an engineer with Raytheon, and is now a senior engineer on the Apollo Project of North American Aviation. As you know this is the earth to moon program, so any of you wanting to make a reservation for the trip write me and I'll send you Foster's street address in Los Alamitos. Nancy and the four children even though they know everything will be in good order would just as soon have someone else rather than Foster be the first one looking down on us from up there.

Joe Hackett just was transferred from Boston headquarters of Avis Rent-A-Car to the Roosevelt Field office in Long Island. Joe is the manager of the system administration for the area. He, Mary, and the five children are living in Westbury where I'm sure he will become as active in the community recreational affairs as he was at his previous home.

After living in their home for three years, Jack and Margaret Barry moved to another house in nearby Dorchester, Mass. Jack is Chief of the Neurology Research Laboratory at the Boston Veterans Hospital.

Bill Pendill is back at an advertising agency as an account executive in Chicago. He is with the firm of Post, Keyes & Gardner. He and MJ. along with Dick and George live in Hinsdale.

We find Commander Dave Richards stationed quite far from the sea these days. He is Commanding Officer of the U.S. Navy Reserve Training Center in Louisville, Ky. He lives on the base with wife Elizabeth and their daughter Debbie, who is now thirteen and a half.

Another recent resident of sunny California is Don Smith. Don lives in Los Angeles and has become Assistant Secretary and Treasurer of the Kimberly Corp. in Culver City. He is not married and consequently finds things quite interesting for him out there.

After holding the position of principal of a grade school and teaching also, Bill Warnock is now attending Michigan State University at Lansing in order to obtain his Doctor's degree. He, Nancy, and the family are living in East Lansing.
