Here's your Quiz-of-the-Month. Ready? What do the following have in common? Bank of New York, Bristol Myers Co., Burlington Industries, Chemical Bank N. Y. Trust Co., Conn. General Life Ins. Co., Dow Chemical Co., Ford Motor Co., GE, IBM, IT&T, Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co., McGraw-Hill, Inc., Pillsbury Co., Scott Paper Co., J. Walter Thompson Co., Xerox Corporation, Young & Rubicam, Inc. Answer: These are just a few of the 258 companies with matching gift programs. This means that whatever you give to the 1965 Alumni Fund Drive will be matched by your employer (if you work for one of the far-seeing 258). American business recognizes the needs of the nation's colleges. Do you?
Word comes from Eddie Falkenberg who has been with Arthur Young & Company, CPA's, NYC, since graduating from Tuck in '63. Ed has been living with Bob Katz in Manhattan, but plans to change his accommodations shortly when he marries Pat Altman, a Mt. Holyoke '64 whom some of you may remember from our undergrad days. Pat works on the editorial staff of Curtis Publications.
Had a real pleasant surprise a few weeks ago when Pat Giles popped his head into my doorway. Seems that he was out this way house-hunting in anticipation of getting out of the Army, marrying this August, probably living in Ann Arbor while his wife finishes her schooling, and working in Detroit. Pat has long-range plans for Michigan Law school starting in the summer of 1966.
Apparently the Dartmouth 1962 Weinberg clan will all be leaving the womb of learning this year to venture out into the big wide world. Latest of the Big Four to check in is Laurie Weinberg, who is getting his MBA from Columbia University Graduate School of Business, and as of July 12 will be working with the firm of S. D. Leidesdorf & Co., 125 Park Avenue, NYC. certified public accountants. Laurie reports that Dartmouth is well represented at Columbia Business, making up 5% of the student body, plus six faculty members.
In response to my appeal for news NeilDrobny came through with a letter from Port Hueneme, Calif., which he and wife Sue are calling home for a couple of years. Neil is with the Navy Civil Engineer Corps, doing research at the Corps' lab where he is concerned with water supply and waste disposal problems at Antarctic bases. Out this way a couple of months ago to visit the National Sanitation Foundation in Ann Arbor, Neil had a chance to visit with Sallyand Zog Loomis. Other classmates spotted, at an alumni gathering in Los Angeles, where Pete Drowne, Pete Risty, and MikeSchwarz. "Sue and I are living in a 3 bedroom house on the Naval Construction Battalion Center, Port Hueneme, and extend the welcome mat to any '62s who may be in the area."
A long-awaited letter recently arrived from Ingrid and Denny Barnes. It's hard to believe that son Richard is three already. Denny is finishing up his studies at Georgetown Law. From there, after bar exams, it will be to Allegheney Airlines until the end of the year, and then into the Judge Advocate General's Corps of the Army for four years. Ingrid tells us that Dave Armstrong will be married in June to Miss Muriel Rowson, and that Sam and Marilee Anderson are expecting their first child the same month out California way.
Paul Flynn was recently elected president of.the Student Council at Jefferson Medical College. After graduation Paul hopes to be in London or at the Mayo Clinic on fellowship in September and October. Then it's probably out to the West Coast with eventual specialist training in plastic surgery. Paul raises the hope for a rugby game during our first reunion in June 1966 with the Dartmouth Rugby Club. Sounds good.
Gail Usher wrote a letter for husband Dave who is executive officer of a company stationed in South Vietnam, near Hue, north of Da Nong. While Dave is away Gail is keeping busy taking care of Elizabeth, 3, and Scott, 1, in Hawaii. I will send her letter on to Al Rapoport, along with several others which were in response to the April class notes. (My thanks to all of you for your kind words.)
Word was finally received from Dick Bragaw himself. My sources were correct - he is working at the Detroit Free Press. For anyone else who may be trying to track Brags, his address, for the time being at least, is 2700 W. Chicago Blvd., Detroit, Michigan 48206.
Ed Cohen, graduating from Harvard Med, will be doing his interning next year at Bellevue Hospital, NYC. And Pat Dowling, receiving the same degree from Columbia, will be one of twelve MDs interning at the Maine Medical Center in Port- land.
Holding a university fellowship at Brown while he works for his doctorate in Hispanic Literature is Nel Orringer.
To all those who are graduating this year we extend our heartiest congratulations and best wishes for the future. And to every member of this nomadic class, we ask that you please inform the Alumni Records Office, Crosby Hall, Hanover, N. H., of your changes in address.
One final word: the 1965 Alumni Fund Drive ends on June 30. Won't you do your part?
