1959

This is our busiest season in the Admissions Office, so these notes will be short.

Ed and Pat Hobbie stopped in to say hello while they were up over Washington's birthday weekend. Married life is agreeing with both of them and it is not hard to tell that Pat's cooking is agreeing with Ed. He is now an active member of a New Jersey law office. Debby and I took a night off to have dinner with Jim and Betsy Wooster at their farmhouse ski lodge which they and four other couples have rented for the winter in Hartland, Vt. We had a time that more than made up for the day of mushy skiing. Our booming head agent is ready to take first place in this year's Green Derby.

A letter from Pete Barber mentions that Mickey Cohen is a doctor on a destroyer that is steaming for the Mediterranean about now. Pete says that Stan Drazen is living in Binghamton, N. Y., and making great strides in the field of law both privately and as an assistant to the district attorney in the upstate New York area. Pete himself, after traveling on the road for five years, has been made national sales manager of Joan Alan Products, a rug manufacturing concern. He handles domestic and foreign distribution. He says drop in anytime — his office is at 295 Fifth Avenue, New York City.

I know I speak for all of us when I express our sincere sorrow to Garf DeMarco over the loss of his father in an auto accident.

John Leander plans to marry Arlene Maher in May. She is a faculty member at the Hartford Hospital School of Nursing in Connecticut. John is a sales representative for Emhart Corporation. Tom Margetts, fresh from two years of service in the U.S. Army, has started the practice of law with the New York firm of Lord, Day and Lord. He received an honorable discharge and a citation for meritorious service while serving as a personnel officer in the Army Engineer Center Bridge at Fort Belvoir. The citation commended him for outstanding organization and management abilities as he established controls to reduce the number of complaints in the pay section from $200 per month to $15 a month. Maybe some of us should write him. That head agent experience pays off.

Those of you who have been following Bob Czelusniak's quest for position of register of deeds in Northampton will be pleased to know that he made it.

An April wedding will unite Renny Drew and Lois Page. Renny is an inventory management specialist with the Weyerhaeuser Company in Newark, N. J. His future bride graduated from William Smith College and Columbia University and is a teacher in Tenafly, N. J.

Our Minnesota group might be interested to know that sometimes a golden gopher will travel all the way to Brooklyn to find a burrow. Miss Jane Cohler of St. Paul will become the bride of David Cohen in April. Jane attended Simmons College and was graduated from the University of Minnesota School of Journalism in 1962. She is the manager of public relations for the Elgin National Watch Company in New York. Dave graduated from Columbia Law and is with the law firm of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Worton, and Garrison in New York. And a final wedding note - Eddie Schwartz will marry Luane Kaplan in the near future. She is presently teaching in Holbrook, Mass., while Eddie is associated with Jackson Hosiery Company, Inc.

That's it for now — more next time when the pressure is off.

P.S. A note just received from Dr. and Mrs. Terry Ceranski announces the birth of a son, Terrence Walter, 7 lbs., 13 oz., February 24. Happy 2 a.m. bottle.
