Vignettes of the informal reunion in Hanover on the Princeton weekend: Arrived at the Shady Lawn Motel late Friday afternoon after viewing some of the most spectacular scenery in years. Jack Hubbard already there to greet us. Dined at the Woodstock Inn with Karl and Bea Pittelkow and Chris and Jane Born. 1930 had their headquarters there and they don't look much older than we do, only the wives look so lovely. ... Just caught the last embers of the biggest Campus bonfire in history. ... Convened on the dot of nine o'clock for the Class Officers and Executive Committee Meeting in the Paul Room of the library. Cart got us out in plenty of time to worry as to where we were not going to find seats for the game. However, we were lucky enough to find some good temporary seats on the thirty-yard line, and even saved some for John and VirginiaCornehlsen and Phil and Alice Mayher. The results of the game will be reported elsewhere I am sure, but it was a beautiful thing to see! ...

Al Welch writes "We took a fast auto trip through the East in August. The bricks from the old Inn were tumbling into Main Street when we were in Hanover. The trip confirmed what I have often thought there is no prettier or more varied country than our Northeastern section, and there is no college as distinctive or handsome as Dartmouth." ...

In July, our oldest, Dick '59, and his wife Charlotte (married Sept. '64 in Fort Worth, Texas) presented us with our second grandchild, Laura Anne. Dick is assistant secretarytreasurer of Lane, Wood, Inc. of Dallas, Texas, a financial service company. Stuart, our second son (B.U. '63) was married in September 1963 in Boston and provided our first grandchild, Robert, in June, 1965. Stuart is an Ensign in the Navy, stationed at Annapolis, where he is in charge of small sailing craft and instruction. He has just been appointed varsity sailing coach at Annapolis.

Van Jamieson reports that his daughter Marcia is a sophomore at Penn State and his son Peter is a freshman at Hobart. ... Austin Starrett writes "I am sorry that on one of the few times I have contributed to class notes it has to be to report the loss of my dear wife Peggy. She went to the hospital early in June and died July 30. My daughter, Martha, and her two fine boys were with me and a great comfort. My two sons, David, '64 and Bob joined me in Maine for an interment service and then we three started West for a tour of the National Parks. I left David Jr. for his third year of graduate work at Stanford and Bob for his junior year at Cal Tech, and returned to my teaching duties at Georgia Tech after over 10,000 miles of eventful driving." ... We also were saddened to hear of the death of Bill Morgan's wife in August and we send him our heartfelt sympathy. ...
