1962
The bonfire was the biggest, the fall day the loveliest, the females the prettiest, and the game the greatest. That's the report from Hanover following the Holy Cross weekend. Sue and I ran into many familiar faces and sights and would you believe it, even the Bullet recognized me.
We had a pre-game "lunch" with MikeSlive and Al Rappaport at Mike's pad on Wheelock Street. Mike is, as he puts it, third in line at the Financial Aid Office. Al is busy doctoring and getting out the newsletter with Bob Katz.
Following the game there was a gathering at John Schiffiman's new home in Hanover which doubled as a class officers' meeting. It was unanimously adopted by the officers to arrange a class get-together at Princeton this November. Dick Hofmann was "willing" to handle the details and the Newsletter will elaborate later. In the meantime those of you who can make it drop me a note (post card) and I'll notify Dick.
It was then unanimously adopted that we pay our $6.00 class dues, which amount I then handed over. Let's make john's task easy by getting the assessment in. At this point it was voted to cut the class secretary off, which vote was applauded by the wife of the same. Incidentally if any of you are eager to become involved with the class committee drop me a line.
Hoffer passed on word of Bill Pierce who has surrendered to the charms of an Atlanta, Ga., lovely and tied the knot on October 7. Wonder if she hooks lefty too? Bob VanDam. has pulled up stakes in Philadelphia and is nestled back in Michigan at Detroit. Brock Kier was seen by Hoffer on the commuter train between New York and Philadelphia. Brock is a land baron owning apartment houses in New York and trying to muscle in on Philadelphia. Rumor has it that an El Paso female has the inside track for a wedding to be held soon.
Steven Roth has been named vice president and general partner in Kennilworth Associates, industrial and commercial construction and development firm of 2 Park Avenue, New York City. He has been with the firm for two years, during which Kennilworth has built some $14 million worth of industrial plants in 11 New Jersey and Rockland County sites. Steve, a Tuck graduate, was a research associate there until he entered real estate four years ago.
Bob Barton has an aversion to seeing his name in print, but says that he was located at Harvard Law School learning a trade. Doug McPhail, the pea green infielder, now a lawyer and lieutenant in the Navy was wed to Gertrude Juliette Ste. Marie in Fall River, Mass., last June. Doug picked up his law degree from Duke and Gertrude is presently taking a graduate course in microbiology at Purdue.
Paul Weinberg, a captain with the Judge Advocate Staff of the Second Armored Division, was the first officer to purchase the new U.S. Treasury Notes (Freedom Shares). It seems that Paul has about another year to go on his commitment.
Al Dick, who has been working for his Ph.D. at the University of Waterloo in Canada, is now Instructor in Psychology at Lake Forest College in Illinois. He taught this past summer at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia. Al has received scholarships and fellowships from Dartmouth, the Herrick Foundation, and the National Science Foundation, and has also held an Ontario Graduate Fellowship. His wife Starlene comes from Kitchener, Ontario.
Dean Seymour sends on word that JohnRobbi Cox received his B.A. in Architecture from Penn last May. Robbi was awarded the Medal of the American Institute of Architects "for completing the three years of graduate study in architecture with the highest academic average." Robbi is designing up a storm from 451 Merion Road in Merion Station, Pa.
Nick Jennison is now happily wed to Virginia Gayle Clark of Macon, Ga.; the big date was last July 8. Nick has finished up with Uncle Sam and is making maps with Rand McNally and Company of Chicago and Atlanta. The bride is a graduate of the University of Georgia, and was the Gater Bowl Queen in 1963.
Last June 10, John F. Quinan and the former Maryann Regan left for a two-month tour of Europe following their wedding in Lowell, Mass. John is still hitting the books at graduate school at Brown. Another Mass. wedding saw Jane Frances Warnecke join ranks with Mike Tan Creti. After leaving Dartmouth, Mike attended Berkeley Divinity School at New Haven, Conn. Mike was ordained at St. George's Church in Durham, N. H., in June and he and Jane are now situated in lowa where Mike commands the pulpit. Ordained along with Mike was Burtner Ulrich who also attended Berkeley.
Ross Burkhardt is busy teaching in Central Valley, N. Y., and on Sept. 2 he was married to Elza Philine Bergeron of La Canada, Calif. Ross served with the Peace Corps as did his bride and then he picked up his M.S. at Penn.
