1960
Early this year, Dave Jablonsky, a captain in the infantry, was wounded in Vietnam. Last word had it that he was recovering in the United States and since that was some time ago, I am assuming that he is well again.
Jim Chubb, with Uniroyal Inc. in a marketing position, has been doing a good deal of globe-trotting. Until June he was in London and since then has been in Aachen, Germany. He married a young lady from Munich by the name of Inge in 1966 apparently while he was getting an M.B.A. from Columbia. Before graduate school he spent a year abroad as "general vagabond" after a few years in the Navy. Last time I heard from Mike and Joyce Carroll he was in Texas and California as an Air Force captain and pilot and having a good time.
The Bank of New York announced in April the appointment of Dave Harrison as an assistant treasurer, concentrating on business development on the West Coast. At the same time Fernando Guerrero became the manager in Los Angeles, Calif., of the International Freight Division of American Express Company. John Bracken, also this spring, became an assistant secretary of the First Seneca Bank and Trust Company, in Oil City, Pa.
Lyn Carlin some time ago reported in and since he was more concise than I can be I shall quote: "... in Basking Ridge, N. J., practicing law, after two and a half years at Fort Knox, Ky., as company commander. ... Two children, a cat, some goldfish, and a mortgage." Butch Hitchcock also sounded off from St. Louis, Mo., where he works for Eastern Airlines, is married to Joan and finds time occasionally to come East to ski. From Detroit, Mich., Dr. Neil Koreman reported-that he is a commissioned medical officer in the U. S. Public Health Service and is married to Dorothy, who's also an M.D.
Another man hard to keep up with is John Youle. He was earlier this year in the Political Section of the U.S. Embassy in San Domingo, D.R., and he did go on vacation in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Thereafter I've lost him again. He's been married since 1963 to Inés and they have two children. Bernie Doe should be back from Saigon, "the rather tarnished Pearl of the Orient," as he put it, by now. He was working there for Uncle Sam as a captain with Army Intelligence. And one more man abroad: Ed Henriquez, working in the family import-export business in Panama.
A few other items that didn't make it into the news before the summer: Bill Katz wrote that he had been working on his D.B.A. degree in Health Care Administration at George Washington University, Washington, D. C. He is now writing his dissertation. He spent the summer on a Research Fellowship from the Travelers Insurance Companies studying Long-Term Capital Financing of hospitals. He and wife Betsy apparently enjoyed the Hartford, Conn., area for the summer.
One of the more potentially important and yet dull routine jobs by any '60 was performed until recently by Dr. Sid Goldman. He was flight surgeon at Andrews A.F.B. in Washington, D. C., and was standing on alert in a chopper during arrivals and departures of Air Force One flights. He is now doing General Surgery in Detroit and expects to end up in Orthopedic Surgery. He and wife Bunny have one daughter, Marjorie Ruth, born last February.
Dick Griggs was recently featured in an article in a life insurance industry publication as one of the outstanding young insurance salesmen. He's consistently been a member of The Million Dollar Round Table, which comprises the approximately top 1% of the world's life insurance salesmen. Jack Hodgson took on a new job in August in Seattle, Wash., with Western International Hotels Company, where he will be concerned with selecting new cities for the company and solving the problems of getting new hotels designed and built.
I was going to try to see Mike Daley this summer in Maine where he divides his time between sailing, skiing, and selling life insurance (not necessarily in that order) but couldn't quite make it. Mike is still single and enjoying it, he says. Dick Fishbein is another bachelor, but he's enjoying a different kind of mode of life: New York. After a year at the University of Bologna in Italy and an M.B.A. from Harvard, he is now an assistant vice-president with Kuhn, Loeb & Co., an investment banking firm on Wall Street.
Harry Bruckner, married to Ginny and with a son, Harry III, was billed as a Social Science-Humanities Specialist for the College Division of the McGraw-Hill Book Company. He was covering mostly Berkeley and Stanford when I heard from him last. He's concerned with getting people who write books to publish with McGraw-Hill and have them use the material already published. Dick Davidson told me before the summer that he had just changed jobs and was working for Bambergers, a large retail chain, setting up the installation of an "on-line-realtime" inventory control system. Predictably he had worked for IBM previously. Dick and Arlene have three kids, Jody, Robin and Andrew. And while we are talking about Davidsons, Bill is a U.S. Public Health Service Fellow at the University of Minnesota after graduating from the Harvard School of Dental Medicine. He's working for a Ph.D. in Anatomy and an M.S. in Orthodontics. Bill and wife Joan have one son, Matthew Charles, about 6 months old.
Captain Don Bayles by now is the base surgeon at the Air Force Base in Peshawar, Pakistan, 12 miles from the Khyber Pass. He and his wife have two daughters, Donna, 12, and Kirsten, 2. Back in Houston, Texas Dune Gray is an attorney with Baker, Botts, Sheperd & Coates, specializing in tax law. He and wife Suzanne have one son. Dune also writes that Bob Hackett is in the same business in Phoenix, Ariz. Bob is married to Sandy; no children have been reported but that information might be dated.
In June Rockefeller University in New York, designed only for advanced students who wish to prepare for careers as university professors in the sciences and humanities, awarded Jim Foch its Ph.D. degree. Jim has since joined Bell Telephone Laboratories. He is married to the former Garda Jensen of Hanover. They have forsaken New York life for the more rural living of Red Bank, N. J.
A man still single, "but looking," is GaryGriffin. He's an assistant professor of Agronomy at the University of Connecticut. He runs the university's Soil Testing laboratory. Married (to Mary Ellen) but certainly on the move is Portland, Ore., based lawyer Bob Conklin. He's just been to the "Geneva Conference on World Peace through Law" in July. For entertainment he enjoys flying. Ron DeNeuf reports from Rye, N. Y., that he's with the Avon Company. He and wife Marylin have three kids. After getting his Ph.D. from Princeton in April, Martin Andic has moved to Tufts University in Boston to teach philosophy. The last three years he spent as an Assistant Professor at Reed College in Portland, Ore., with wife Lorraine.
Bob Brusic - and I suppose wife Lucy - have put together quite an interesting way of living: he's Associate Pastor at the Lutheran Association of Ithaca, N. Y., and at the same time runs the "Unmuzzled Ox," a "well known coffee house to the cognoscenti," as Bob explains. "Life is sweet and rich," he goes on, "in spite of increasing proofs of what professionally is known as man's sinful nature." He further tells of having a brew with George and DainaMundt... brandy at Deux Margot in Paris with Dave Schofield. ...
