1960

It was a bleak Saturday afternoon at Harvard Stadium. The sun was shining but not even it and the massed Big Green Band could dispel the gloom at the traditional post-game gathering at the Cage. Most contemplated their paper cups in a rather dreary light.

In the meantime, things have brightened considerably and at New Haven the atmosnhere was rather more congenial. Football and Sam Bowlby fit well at the pre-game get-together outside of the Yale Bowl. Sam has just completed Yale Law School after spending a few years in the Marine Corps and is now a practising attorney in New Haven Seth Strickland was there trying to set a record for most football-games-seen in one fall. He is planning on five. I know of only e other who is trying to equal that mark: Bob Colyer who is teaching school in South Hadley, Mass.

Frank Buniap introduced me to his very charming fiancee Pat in the stands at the Bowl. He works for the Grand Union Supermarkets as a buyer of imported foods for the New York area. Lee Horschman had come all the way from Rochester, N.Y., to New Haven for the game. He works for Kodak together with Wayne Givens. Alan Seth Danson wanted to be quite sure that I get his name right - after much research both my secretary and I agree that we did it. Al, incidentally, works for a brokerage house in New York City: Bear, Stearns & Co.

Back in Boston I ran into Bob Caulfield who is now working for the Westinghouse Broadcasting System, after getting a MBA from Harvard in June. He and wife Susan are expecting their first child. Bob Sanders dropped me a note recently and tells me that he is "plodding on" towards a Ph.D. in Palynology, which my dictionary defines as "a branch of science dealing with pollen and spores." Bob spends most of his time at Oklahoma University but also does a good deal of work as a field geologist in Western Alberta.

Dick Aronsohn, who made it to the Yale game incidentally, has been rather agile lately. In the last column I announced a few months late admittedly — his appointment to a New Jersey Civil Right job. He apparently has decided in the meantime, though, that a non-government career is more suitable and has joined a legal firm in Paterson, N.J. While catching up on news in New Jersey, I find that Joe Tausta is now teaching in the science department at Suffield Academy.

Jim Y. Graham, a few months back, be came the personnel director of the Paul Revere Life Insurance Company, the Massachusetts Protective Association Inc. and the Paul Revere Variable Annuity Insurance Company, affiliated Worcester, Mass., Insurance Companies. (The space problems on his business card must be overwhelming.) I just recently caught up with John McNair, who several months back became the new products manager of the International Paper Company's Single Service Division which is concerned with the manufacture and distribution of plastic coated paper cartons, including the well-known Pure-Pak product line.

The U.S. Air Force apparently has a hold of a number of '60's. Captain TomTroyer graduated this summer from the Air University's Squadron Officer School at Maxwell's Air Force Base in Alabama and has been assigned to Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma. Captain and Dr. KenSiegel, also some months back, completed the orientation course for officers of the U.S. Air Force Medical Service at Sheppard Air Force Base in Texas and has been assigned to McGuire Air Force Base in New Jersey. Captain and Dr. HowieFrankel went to the same course at Sheppard. At the time of this writing there is no information available on his assignment after Sheppard.

And finally some more wedding announcements: Rick Yocum in September married Barbara Brown. Rick works for Beech-Nut Life Saver Inc. in New York as Product Manager of the coffee division. Bob Kenerson, during the summer, went to Gstaad, Switzerland, to marry Ruth Hauswirth.
