1960

In looking over the news this last month, it seems that many of our members are still leading that academic life — some as students, others as instructors. While many of us put in our long days at the office there are some that spend their time in lecture halls and libraries. Reed Browning, for instance, is an instructor in the History Department at Amherst. He has completed his doctoral work at Yale and will receive his degree this June. Jon Brown is now studying art in Spain under a year's Fulbright Scholarship grant, after having obtained his doctorate at Princeton. Jon plans to join the Princeton faculty upon his return. Cliff Russel has won one of Harvard's coveted Graduate Prize Fellowships in Economics. This will guarantee Cliff financial support for four or five years. During that time he will teach at Harvard for several years and also have a year for full time research. Nice going, Cliff!

Bill Katz writes that he and his wife Betsy were the only '60's at the 1964 Dartmouth Alumni College. Bill says it was a fascinating educational experience besides being a good vacation. At present Bill is a Ist lieutenant in the Army at Walter Reed Institute. After discharge he will work for a doctorate in Business Administration at George Washington University. Saul Baernstein is an assistant Prof, of Law down at Southern Methodist in "Big D."

I received the happy news the other day that Ryan and Gretchen Ostebo had a baby boy, Eric Charles, on February 27. Oz claims the little fellow will be on skates within a year (and probably in the penalty box soon after that). The Ostebos are living in Minneapolis while Oz gets his master's in History.

Harry Quillian has been appointed a career Foreign Service officer by LBJ. The appointment makes him a vice consul and a secretary in the Diplomatic Service. The Quillians are living in Arlington, Va. Word out of Rutland, Vt., tells us that John Hansen has just been made a partner in a law firm with the new name of Carsones and Hansen.

I'll bet you didn't know that Paul McClure is working for the Beatrice Food Co. in Chicago; that Phil Kron is a staff accountant with Price Waterhouse in Rochester, N. Y.; that AI Pieper is a buyer for Hallscrafters Manson Labs in Wilton, Conn.; that Bob Mathog is an intern at the Duke Medical Center; that Don McGreevy is an artist in Kansas City; that Frank Vernelli is a surgical resident at Boston City Hospital; that Bill Davidson is a student at Howard School of Dental Medicine; that WebbWhitney is a Signal Operations Platoon Leader at Fort Lewis, Wash.; and finally I'll bet you didn't know that very soon it will be Alumni Fund time again.

So, if you didn't know all of the above, do two things; 1. Send me some news that I don't know about and 2. Give lots of your money to the Alumni Fund — and I mean lots.

Enough for now.
