1938

So much has been said, and so well said, about the Alumni Fund, that it behooves this screed only to remind the various delinquent members of the Class of 1938 to get their checks in soon. Marty King is off to an excellent start as Class Agent, and his staff is really on the ball; make their work easier by coming across without any further ado.

As a by-product of the dues-collecting work of Pete Schaeffer, come several items of news. Conny Fenn reports (from Waterville, Me.) "Haven't seen any 38'ers in these parts, but Dartmouth men always seem to get together even in Waterville. Second oldest daughter, Eleanor, graduates from B.U. - degree in Special Education (mental retarded) and then to be married June 25. Third daughter, Joan, graduates from Cazenovia College - Marty King's daughter there too. Fourth daughter, Helen, graduates from House in the Pines and hopes to attend U. of Maine. The month of June will be quite hectic."

And from the ever-peripatetic Ev Wood, "Was on a mission attached to the German Air Force since December."

Brae Potter reports of himself and family, "Younger son, 'Hop,' Dartmouth '63, living with me here and he's going into commercial aviation. Elder son, 'Rusty,' Princeton '62, naval air officer in Puerto Rico, married, and I'm a grandfather. I make it to Connecticut for the summers but even July and August are too cold for me."

Bob Carroll's mother (in sending in her annual In Memoriam contribution in his name) reports that Bob's oldest daughter Susan, who graduates from Marymount College in New York in June, is to be married in August.

To complete the marital picture for the month, Whitey Mays' daughter, Gardner is to be married to M. Patrice Bellanger of Paris. Miss Mays has been employed by Vogue magazine in Paris.

Not content with successfully marrying off his daughter, our own Whitefoord has been elected a director of Fulton Industries, Inc. of Atlanta. Fulton is a diversified textile manufacturing company, and Whitey is president of Thomas Pride Mills, Inc., a Fulton subsidiary.

The State of Vermont has gained a new citizen with Fud Mather's recent promotion to duties as the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company's new state traffic manager in Vermont. Fud, who has been living in Barrington, R.I., and holding responsibilities as district traffic superintendent in the city of Pawtucket, has worked in many managing and supervising capacities throughout the New England states. His daughters, Joanna and Karolyn, are students at the University of Rhode Island. His son Bill is in his first year in high school.

Professor of Meteorology at Dr.Edward N. Lorenz, was a recent speaker on the campus of the University of Montana to discuss "The Circulation of the Atmosphere." Dr. Lorenz is the 1965-66 national lecturer for the Society of Sigma Xi; holds degrees from Dartmouth; A.M. in math from Harvard; and Sc.D. in Meteorology from M.I.T. He has been with the M.I.T. department of Meteorology since 1948 except for leaves of absence spent at UCLA and Norske Meteorologiske Institutt in Oslo, Norway.

In the course of dunning me for the Alumni Fund (and superfluously at that) Dave Brinkmann recounts a recent foregathering with the Dave Choate family in Winchester, Mass. Dave (Brinkmann) and wife, Lorraine, have recently taken a real estate course and are now licensed brokers in New Hampshire (Concord).

Ed Thomas is National Accounts manager for Garlock, Inc. (Packaging). After Harvard Business School and five years in the Marine Corps, mostly in the Pacific, Ed went to work for Garlock in 1946. He has been with them in Kalamazoo, Detroit, and now in Rochester, N.Y.

Although no longer active as football and basketball coach at Kennett High School in Conway, Karl Seidenstuecker still makes the rounds of the sports world in that part of New Hampshire, and is still keeping busy with his teaching duties. Hal Berman continues active also in the field of education, having recently been elected head of the school board in his native Newton, Mass. Coincidentally, Charley Sweeny is kept hopping by his duties as president of the Massachusetts Association of School Committees. In his spare time he is chief of the Contact Division of the Veterans' Administration Regional Office in Boston; he has been on the School Committee in Quincy for ten years.

New directors of Illinois Bell Telephone Company include Bruce F. Olson, president of Sundstrand Corporation. Bruce is also a member of the National Machine Tool Builders' Association; Machinery and Allied Products Institute; Oil Heat Institute of America, Inc.; Aircraft Industries Association of America, Inc.; the Rockford (Ill.) Chamber of Commerce; and the Illinois Chamber of Commerce.

Herb Bayer and Dan Marshall have been contacting a small number of Frank Davenport's friends soliciting contributions to the 1938 Alumni Fund in his memory. A more fitting memorial could not be found for one who loved Dartmouth as did Frank.

Elsewhere in this or a subsequent issue will be found the tragic news of the sudden passing of "Duke" Wales and the double loss his family has suffered. 1938 will miss Duke's vitality and breadth of interests.

So ends another magazine year; another reminder to help Marty King put the class over the top in the Alumni Fund; and again, look me up if you are in Hanover any time during the summer. See you in September, if not before.

It was an "all Green" finale in the annualtennis championship of the NationalChain Drug Store Association convention at Hollywood Beach, Fla., with thelaurels going to former football star BobMacLeod '39 (r), who upset defendingchampion and former Big Green varsityplayer Chet Gale '55, 6-3, 1-6, 7-5.
