1933

It occurred to me after spending three afternoons and evenings watching a great NCAA swimming championship meet in Dartmouth's wonderful new pool - surely one of the finest in these United States - that perhaps no more than 25 or 30 of our class have ever seen this great facility made possible by our last capital gifts campaign. Why not - even at this late date - plan to join us in Hanover on June 17, 18 and 19th for an unforgettable 35th and in addition to seeing old friends, take this opportunity to see this new pool, the Leverone field house and Hopkins Center among other fine campus additions? Bill Dewey is waiting to hear from you! A change of address came through on Bill Winn a couple of months ago and you will recall that we speculated that an Arizona address might have indicated retirement. This note from Bill: "In response to your request, permit me to confirm your theory. After some 34 years behind a desk meeting target dates, fighting crises, attending never-ending conferences and living in midwest humidity, we decided it was time to make the big move. So, here we are, enjoying the sun in the vast Southwest establishing our own programs and our own schedules." Bill had been on the headquarters staff of the Defense Electronics Supply Center in Decatur, Ill. We all hope you and Pauline enjoy every minute of your retirement, Bill.

Bill Jones has completed thirty years as an instructor on the staff of Phillips Exeter Academy. He attended the University of Paris where he received his Doctorates Lettres. His field, obviously, is the teaching of French and he has been involved as an officer of the National Association of Teachers of French, New England Modern Language Association, and the New Hampshire Association of Teachers of French. He is an ex-president of the Exeter branch of the American Veterans Committee and is secretary of the New Hampshire chapter of United World Federalists. Bill still enjoys his bachelor status!

After many years in the family woolen business, Ed Hird and his brother entered an entirely new field when they purchased the Cruiser Sales Company in Paramus, N. J. (Don't buy a new cruiser without seeing Ed first!) Following in his father's footsteps, Ed has given much of himself in the work of the Y.M.C.A. in Ridgewood, N. J., in its area work and particularly in its work in Puerto Rico. Ed has three children, Henry, a freshman at the University of Vermont, and Daniel and Martha.

Vernon McKane, who is associated with R. C. Mason Movers in Lynn, Mass. has four children: Joe, Bowdoin '63 and a Babson graduate in '68; Dave, N.Y.U. '67 and Tuck '69; Deborah, No. Shore Community College '6B; and Jonathan a 15-year-old. Here's a fellow we haven't heard a word from since graduation - Gerald Palmer. After leaving Dartmouth, Jerry attended Johns Hopkins Medical School where he received his M.D. Ruth and Jerry have four children. Their son graduated from Hillsdale in 1961, married Jo Ann Bishop and has a daughter. Daughter Jo attended the University of Maryland, married Bernard Bodt and they are the parents of two daughters. Geraldine is a 1962 graduate of Clark and Jane graduated from Hiram in 1964 and is married to John Rosenman. Ruth and Jerry live in Bel Air, Md., where Jerry has his own practice as well as serving as deputy medical examiner. Nice to hear from you, Jerry, after all these years.

Paul Weston has made a great name for himself on the Coast as a conductor-composer for TV and records. You have all seen his smiling face on the Danny Kaye and Jonathan Winters shows during past and present seasons. He and Jo Stafford were married in 1952 and have a son Tim who is 15 and a daughter. Amy, who is 12. They reside in Beverly Hills. Paul was the first national president of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences and has been for four years a trustee of the Television Academy.

Bob McDonald lives in New York City and is vice president in charge of corporate services and public relations of the Foreign Policy Association. He has four grandchildren: a girl and boy, children of his daughter Elinor Bailey and two girls, daughters of his son Ross and wife, Linda. Bob's daughter Marie Fay is attending Bradford.

You will remember the letter we received from Arthur Daniels who recalled joining us at our fifth reunion when he was an instructor at Thayer School. We have made him an adopted member of the Class and he writes from Peterborough, N. H„ where he is president of New Hampshire Ball Bearings that the Daniels will drop in to say "hello" on either Monday or Wednesday of reunion. He might even "buy us a beer!

And let's all do our very best for the Alumni Fund.
