1959

It's unpleasant but necessary to return to the Princeton game for a batch of '59 news. Those of you who were here will understand my leaving the stadium a little early. I figured the only thing a Dartmouth man could beat on that day was the traffic out of town. I know many more '59's were in town than I will be able to mention here. The Aleys were in town visiting the Skeens. Tom is still associated with the American Hospital Supply Company in charge of the eastern region. His wife manages to commute back and forth between Long Island and Penn State University where she is taking some extra courses. Doug Adams also made it back to town. He is associated with The Bank of New York. Skeff and Beth McAllister found time to drop by the Admissions Office to register their two sons for future classes. They were taking time off from the insurance trade and had overnight reservations way up in Mad River Glen, Vt. Jim and Betsy Wooster garnered a Hanover baby sitter for the day and made it up from Needham, Mass. Little Jim is getting so big they had to sell their Volkswagen and purchase a new Malibou station wagon. In view of the game's outcome, Butch andCleo Priest made the wrong last-minute decision and scurried up to Hanover on Saturday morning. How they found our house in the dark I'll never know. Bo Monahan and wife Ann came over for the day from Maine and met up with Bruce McInnes who is now director of the Amherst Glee Club. My part-time neighbor Ted Gude took time off from his special operations research job in Washington to drive twelve hours each way so he could be here for the big tilt. The fact that Columbus discovered America made it possible for a great many people to return to Hanover who otherwise might not have made it. Now, if you were one of those who was here but not mentioned and feel slighted, write and tell me about it.

It has been argued by many that Dartmouth should forever remain an all male institution. Randy and Cindy Malin have broken a similar tradition adhered to for five generations in the Malin Clan. Last June our President was made the proud father of a girl, Katherine Murphy Malin. I received this news from Randy over the telephone one night last June and had become so well adjusted to the fact by September that I neglected to include it in the fall's first ALUMNI MAGAZINE. From the far Northwest comes another bit of news on which I am delinquent. Tim Rich has a new son who is reported to be larger than his old man was at that age. He's already wearing his father's old crew sweatshirts - laundered of course. Good news comes from down New Jersey way where Ed Hobbey married Pat Castaldo - a good excuse for his absence from affairs during the Princeton weekend.

Small place that it is, Hanover is still large enough so that one can go unnoticed for quite some time. It took a faculty meeting to awaken me to the fact that HarveyGalper is teaching here in our Government Department. Also under the educational heading, John Baldwin has been in New York and Boston recently attending chemistry gatherings and consulting the publisher of his forthcoming chemistry lab manual. Al Krutsch who joined the General Investment Company of Denver a while ago was recently named a vice president to fill the position of the man who took over as president of the firm. Warren Dechter has been named an account executive in the New York office of the Gardner Advertising Company. He formerly was an accountant executive with Compton Advertising. Belatedly, four cards were sent my way concerning June graduations. John Kane received an M.D. degree from Harvard. Harvard also granted an LL.D. (his second degree from Harvard) to Owen Fiss; an M.D. to DonBartlett; and a Master in Business Administration degree to Tom Chatfield.

The opposite sex continues to cut down our ranks. Bill Brigiani's engagement to Annette Randazzo was announced recently and will terminate in a February wedding. Having received his law degree from Rutgers, he is now with a Perth Amboy, N. J., law firm. By the time you receive this issue, Dave Gavitt will have gone down the aisle with Julia Anne Garraghan of Kingston, N. Y. That is unless he gets Hoehn for a substitute. Rog Gerber put a ring on Jane Satlow who is working for her Ph.D. at Columbia while he practices law in the city. On November 21 Katrina Cooley became the bride of Alan Ziegler in Pittsford, N. Y. Al is associated with the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company in Rochester. Bob Johnson married Arlene Fanucci this fall. Having received his M.A.T. from Brown University he now teaches French at Staples High School in Westport, Conn. Jay Herpel took Susan Ella Colomb as his bride in September out on the West Coast. And finally, Stu Burns married Nancy Stretton on September 19 in Larchmont, N. Y.

That's about it for now. Remember a few of the things that come up during your holiday season parties. Get near the grapevine and give me something to write about. Hope Santa Claus treats you all well.
