1929

My day started off with a bang when Phil May came in recently. The smiling face doesn't look much different from the days in Hanover, and he is in great shape from gardening. Phil has a charming wife and two sons, one a senior at Bowdoin, and the other in his last year in prep school.... Ray Talbott informs us that he and Kathie happily announce the marriage of their daughter Nancy (Bucknell, 1964) to George Durham (Bucknell and American University, 1964) on April 10, 1964. Ray asked me if I remember the happy days in Wheeler, and asks if I would like a snapshot of our class doing calisthenics. I sure would, Ray. . . . Noel Salomon is Chairman of the Board of Selectmen of Hampton, N. H. Mo Heath was considerate enough to send a nice note to our new treasurer, Jack Hubbard, congratulating him on the excellent letter he sent to the Class.... Larry Shirley writes the reason he missed the reunion is that he was forced to go on a fishing trip that week.... Joe Piazza informs us that his son Peter graduated from Harvard cum laude and is now in Germany with the Army, doing his stint at Berlin. His daughter (Jeanne's) husband is an associate professor of English at the University of Michigan, and her married name is Mrs. F. W. Brownlow. Joe is "on my first retirement job at Williston Academy teaching French." Bill Page is moving into a new house by Christmas and insists that our whole Class be his guests for a few weeks! Bob Waterman tells us that daughter Maria graduated from Wells College in June and son John is a junior at Carnegie Tech. "Pappy is Manufacturers' Representative with principals in Providence. In two or three years will probably sell our home, build one in western North Carolina mountains, resume practice of law - a step up — or a step down, depending upon which of my occasional practicing attorney friends hear me speak of it." Al Welch lives a mile away from Bob and they see one another about once a year.

Joe D'Esopo was one of the first to come through with a check for his class dues. Perley Perkins writes that his son Richard graduated from Northeastern University last June, and accepted a civil engineering position in San Francisco for the State of California. Perley is Director of Development for Melrose-Waterfield Hospital, Melrose, Mass To those few who haven't sent their Class dues to Jack Hubbard, would you please do it right away, so that we will have an extra good response this year?
