1911

WILLIAM EDWARD CARROLL died quietly from a heart attack on February 27, in St. Elizabeth's Hospital, Elizabeth, N. J. "Doc" was born in Passaic, N. J., November 29, 1889, and was married there in 1919 to Marguerite Langlaid of Haverhill, Mass.

He was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity and a popular undergraduate. He got his A.B. degree in June 1911 and his M.D. in 1914. He immedately started his medical career as intern at the Rhode Island Hospital in Providence, the Providence Lying-in Hospital, and the Woman's Hospital. He was with the Medical Corps, U.S. Army, 1918-19; Junior Attending Surgeon, General Hospital, Passaic, N. J. 1919-28. He next became associated with the Undercliff Sanitarium in Meriden, Conn., as Assistant Superintendent where he remained until his retirement because of medical disability in 1946. Doc was a Fellow of the American College of Physicians and Diplomate of American Board of Internal Medicine." A number of his articles were published in national medical journals during the period 1920-38.

Doc's wife, Peg, wrote of his kinship for Dartmouth and Dartmouth men, saying "He had seemed stronger since fall and listened to the Dartmouth games with real interest as he always had since he retired." He found many interests in his home which he rarely left. Doc's friends enjoyed his quiet sense of humor which often gave birth to a charming bit of doggerel.

He is survived by his wife and three sons. Dick is at home with his mother, at 200 Parker Rd., Elizabeth, N. J., John is in Meriden, and Jerry is in Washington. The latter was on the Dartmouth faculty (Geology Dept.) in 1954- 1955.

1915

DABNEY HOETON, of Northport, N. Y., a free-lance writer for numerous publications, died at Huntington Hospital, L. I., March 21, 1968.

"Opie," as he was familiarly known to his classmates, was born in Missouri on June 3, 1891. He attended St. John's Military Academy and graduated from Dartmouth with an A.B. degree in 1915. He was a member of Round Robin Society and among other accomplishments was a skier of note in college.

During World War I, he fought with the French as a Sergeant and pilot of the famous Lafayette Flying Corps from August 1916 to February 1919.

He was a long-time resident of Northport and served as a volunteer at the Burrwood Home for the Blind.

Surviving are a son, Charles D. Jr. of Browning, Montana, and a daughter, Elizabeth, now Mrs. DeLoach, of Northport.

Father Charles Baker of the Northport Episcopal Church conducted services at the Taylor Funeral Home on March 25 and cremation took place at Washington Memorial Park, Coram.

1918

ERNEST HOWELL EARLEY, top man in the affections of his Class, passed on to greener fields on March 9, 1968. He was in his 73rd year and lived at 1 West 85th St., New York City.

Born in Somerville, Mass., Ernie entered Dartmouth from Medford High School with the acute necessity of earning his own way. He quickly became a campus "conglomerate" of outside activities - covering a laundry route, purveying blotters and pennants, waiting on table, ready for any odd job that would contribute to a subsistence living. However, his more substantial reward was in the minds of the hundreds who got to know him, who were impressed by his quiet courtesy and decency of values, and who felt that Ernie always left something of himself behind. It was an experience and education Ernie found invaluable in later life.

He was a member of Delta Tau Delta, Casque & Gauntlet, our freshman hockey team, and later was manager-elect of hockey. During World War I he was with the Dartmouth College Ambulance Unit attached to the French Army and a 2nd Lieutenant with the Artillery Corps of the AEF. At our first reunion after the war, the Class restored Ernie to the post of class treasurer to which he had been elected during our junior year and from then on Ernie served 1918 as treasurer, secretary, and for more than 25 years as president-secretary until 1958 when he declined re-election. At that time, in tribute to his arduous and uncomplaining service, the Class unanimously acclaimed and dubbed him "Mr. 1918."

In personal affairs, Ernie was fully as successful. In 1925 he wooed and won beautiful and artistic Mary Ellen Sexton who has graced and been hostess at so many of our reunions and parties. And previously in 1922, he joined the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Co. in New York as "just another new agent." He was not to remain that very long.

After making his initial sale to himself - an endowment policy for $12OO - Ernie went on to set a first-year record in the near-century-old history of his company. Within a few years, he was the company's leading underwriter, continuing at or near the top for several decades, president of its association of agents, winner of about every award Northwestern offered, and regarded by the entire industry as an inspiration of what could be accomplished by a single individual. His legendary career with Northwestern closed with Ernie's retirement in 1964.

The Class respected and admired Ernie because he was a monument to the old-time virtues - complete and open honesty, undiluted by Madison Avenue 'sincerity' or 'integrity'; genuine simplicity, a very rare gem in an age of hokum; and firm devotion to the service and happiness of others. We loved him because he was modest; because when he spoke it was to contribute, not to shine; because he had the grace to listen to the tales of others' pains while sealing lips on his own; because he never bragged or bluffed or pretended to be other than what he really was. Since the past is increasingly important as we get older, our own past is much more pleasant because of companions like Ernie.

Fittingly and eloquently, our own classmate, Rev. George M. Davis, conducted the services for Ernie at Campbell's Funeral Home, New York City, on March 13. Present were all '18ers available in the area, Dartmouth men of many other vintages, numerous friends and the survivors; his wife, son Robert B. Earley, and grandson Robert B. Jr.

1919

HUGH GORDON MULLEN passed away in New York City on February 21 from cancer. Gin, the name all of us knew him by, was with the Class two years and was a member of Theta Delta Chi. He served sixteen months with the War Production Board in Washington during World War 11. Most of his business life was spent in the hosiery business, first with Brown Durrell & Co., then with Julius Kayser Co. and the Manchester Hosiery Mills. He is survived by his wife Janet, of 117 East 37th St., N. Y., to whom goes our most sincere sympathy.

1924

RICHARD BAGLEY LUDWIG passed away January 27, 1968, at the age of 66, in the Utica, N. Y., Hospital, following a heart attack after a short illness.

Born in Houlton, Maine, Dick came to Dartmouth from Allen Military Academy, where he excelled in football. While in Hanover he made his numerals on the freshman team. He left Dartmouth at the end of his sophomore year and in 1923 married Bernice Raymond.

After leaving college, Dick became associated with the John Hancock Life Insurance Company in Boston. In 1929 he returned to Houlton and was instrumental in constructing the Northeastland Hotel in that city and the Northland Hotel, in Presque Isle, Me. He operated both hotels until 1933 when he returned to Boston. He then became connected with the Bethlehem Steel Corp. in Quincy, where he remained until 1943. He moved to Utica, N. Y., and became purchasing agent for Foster Bros. Manufacturing Co.

The last few years of his life were spent with the air conditioning division of General Electric of Utica, N. Y. He retired last year and made his home in Yorkville, where his family continues to reside at 4 First St.

Dick was a member of Green Key and Phi Gamma Delta. He is survived by his widow, Bunny, two daughters, and a grandson.

Known for his sense of humor and good fellowship, he will surely be missed by all who knew him.

ALTON F. TUPPER JR.

1925

CHARLES WILLIAM BABCOCK suffered a heart attack while on a hunting expedition in Africa and died March 6, 1968, in the Katherine Bibby Hospital, Mombasa, Kenya. "Africa had always been Chuck's mecca," his wife, Rosemary, wrote, "and we had ten lovely days there before he died. Just before he had the heart attack he told me that his dream was complete and he would like to live in Africa the rest of his life. Less than ten hours later he got his wish!"

Chuck was born in Seattle, Wash., December 6, 1904, and prepared for Dartmouth at New Trier High School, Winnetka, Ill. He was a member of Kappa Sigma and circulation manager of The Dartmouth his senior year.

After 25 years of selling comptometers in the Midwest area and 13 years travelling the U.S. and Canada selling automatic fastening equipment, Chuck retired in 1962. Much of his time since then was devoted to his favorite sports - hunting and fishing.

Surviving are his wife, Rosemary, at 1122 Longmeadow Rd., Northbrook, Ill.; four children, Peter H., William F., John C. and Henrietta R.; at least three grandchildren, and a brother, Richard, '40, to all of whom the deep sympathy of the Class is extended for the loss of a grand guy.

1926

DR. CHARLES LEITH MUNSON died January 21, 1968, in Wilmington, Del. One of Wilmington's best-known surgeons, Leith had practiced until early September, when he was stricken with the cancer that caused his death. As a surgeon he had won a wealth of professional recognition, but he was equally proud of a Bronze Star he won for meritorious service in the European Theater of Operations in World War II

Leith was separated from the Army in 1945 as a lieutenant colonel after three years of service, 33 months of it with the 2d Evacuation Hospital (St. Luke's Hospital Unit) in Europe, where he landed 17 days after D-Day with the First Army. The hospital unit worked immediately behind the lines.

Leith was a native of Washington, D. C., but grew up in Wilmington, attending Wilmington High School for two years and graduating from Wilmington Friends School. He took his premed training at Dartmouth, where he received his B.S. degree in 1926. He was a member of Zeta Psi fraternity. He received his M.D. degree from Philadelphia's Jefferson Medical College in 1930, receiving several prizes at graduation including the Alumni Prize for the best general average gained in the examinations for the entire curriculum.

After four years of interning and residency at Delaware Hospital and St. Luke's Hospital, New York, he began practice in Wilmington in 1934. Leith was a former secretary of the Medical Society of Delaware, served as president of the New Castle County Medical Society in 1949, and was a member of the American Medical Association, a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, a member of the American Board of Surgery, and a past president of the Wilmington Rotary Club.

For a number of years he was director of surgery at Delaware Hospital, now Delaware Division of the Wilmington Medical Center. He was also chairman of the hospital's medical board.

Leith is survived by his widow, Florence Ely Munson; a daughter, Mrs. Edward Crum Jr.; a son, Charles L. Jr.; five grandchildren; his mother, and two brothers, Lewis S., Class of 1928, and Robert.

1927

LEON CHARLES GREENEBAUM died of a heart ailment in Lenox Hill Hospital, New York City, on March 25. He was chairman of the board of the Hertz Corporation and a director of Radio Corporation of America, its parent company, at the time of his death.

Lee was born in New York City and entered Dartmouth from Dwight High School. He had also attended Townsend Harris High School, the school for gifted boys. While in Hanover he was on the swimming and water polo teams. After graduation he got into the truck-leasing business, which had been founded by his father who had started out in 1907 with a horse and wagon. The trucking business became Metropolitan Distributors, Inc. Lee entered the company as a maintenance man. After a year he was promoted to dispatcher and spent another year learning office procedures. In 1930 he was named Assistant Treasurer, subsequently Vice President in 1931, and became President in 1936. The company expanded to one of the largest trucking companies in the country under his leadership and his many innovations.

In 1955 Metropolitan was acquired by the Hertz Corporation in a major business deal which laid the foundation for Hertz' rapid growth. Lee became a director and subsequently board chairman in 1956. In the first five years of his leadership the operating revenues tripled. In 1966, its last full year of operation before RCA acquired it, revenues reached $338 million. The growth plans and the development of the international organization were all attributed to Lee.

His widow is the former Myra Cole, of 2 East 61st St., New York City. His son, Charles L., by a previous marriage, is Dartmouth '55. He also is survived by a sister, Mrs. Janet Applebaum, and three grandchildren.

Representing '27 at Lee's funeral at Temple Israel were Don McCall, Bill St. Amant, Ken Murray, Sidney Voice, Orie Herwitz, and . Sam Wormser. He was most loyal to his Class and in turn was honored by them several years back at the 1927 annual New York dinner.

Lee was 1927's Bequest Chairman and recently served as President of the Dartmouth Bequest Chairmen's Association. He was always more than generous in his support of Dartmouth. His broad smile and wise counsel will be missed in future Class and College activities.

His many close friends in '27 extend their deepest condolences to his family.

1928

GILBERT CARL SWANSON, whose family name is nationally known in the frozen-foods field, died March 8 at his home, 412 North Elmwood Road, in Omaha, Neb. He was 62 and at the time of his death was president of Swanson Enterprises, parent company for his business interests in real estate and industry.

Gil was born in Omaha on January 7, 1906 and prepared for Dartmouth at Central High School there. He spent only the first two years with our Class and then enrolled at lowa State University in Ames. He left college in 1926 to join his father in the Jerpe Commission Company, Omaha, which later became C. A. Swason & Sons Company, food processors. After junior executive positions and six years as plant manager in Fayetteville, Ark., he returned to Omaha as vice president of the company. Upon the death of his father in 1949 he became president, and in 1954 he assumed the position of chairman of the board when his brother, the late W. Clarke Swanson, succeeded him as president.

C. A. Swanson & Sons since 1944 has been prominent in the food field as producers and marketers of convenience foods, especially frozen prepared poultry products and the wellknown Swanson TV-Dinners. In 1955 the company was merged with the Campbell Soup Company, and Gil became a Campbell vice president in charge of the Swanson operations. In 1958 he and his brother Clarke purchased Paxton & Gallagher Company, later to become known as Butter-Nut Foods Company, with Gil as chairman. Sales of the company's Butter-Nut Coffee were nationally expanded and in 1962 the company was acquired by the Duncan Coffee Company. Although Gil continued to direct the Butter-Nut division for Duncan for several years, his business activities were more and more related to Swanson Enterprises, and finally he gave his full time to this presidency.

At the time of his death he was a director of many companies: Campbell Soup Co., Northwestern Bell Telephone Co., Yellow Transit Co., Nebraska Consolidated Mills, Omaha National Bank, West Omaha National Bank, Swanco Broadcasting Co., and Samardick & Co.

He had also served as a trustee or director of Creighton University, Shattuck School, Joslyn Memorial Art Museum, the Omaha YMCA, The Creche, Bishop Clarkson Memorial Hospital, Omaha Industrial Foundation, Economic Development Council of Omaha, and the Omaha Chamber of Commerce. Gil had assisted in the organization of the Carl and Caroline Swanson Foundation, Inc., initiated by his father and mother; and he had also established the Gilbert C. Swanson Memorial Research Fund at the Mayo Foundation in Rochester, Minn. According to newspaper accounts, two-thirds of his large estate was left to establish the Gilbert C. Swanson Foundation to promote charitable, religious, educational, and research objectives.

Gil in 1945 received the Nebraska Builder Award, highest honor of the University of Nebraska. He had also received the honorary Doctorate of Laws from Midland College and the Air Force Exceptional Service Award from the Strategic Air Command.

Gil was married March 14, 1936 to Roberta Fulbright, sister of U. S. Senator J. William Fulbright, in Fayetteville, Ark. She died in October 1959. Survivors include two sons, Gilbert C. Jr. and Jay F., both of Omaha; two daughters, Mrs. Patricia Feldman of La Jolla, Calif., and' Miss Helen Carla Swanson of Omaha; five grandchildren; and a sister, Mrs. Webster E. Pullen of Omaha.

Services were held March 11 at the Kountze Memorial Lutheran Church in Omaha, with burial in Forest Lawn Cemetery. Among the distinguished business and professional leaders who were pallbearers were Peter Kiewit '22, Jack Rose '28, and Dick Walker '28. A large group of honorary pallbearers included Orton H Hicks '21, Vice President Emeritus of the College; Gaylord Fauntleroy '28, Craw Pollock '28, Emil Shukert '28, Bill Whaley '28, and Bob Bender '40.

In an editorial the Omaha World Herald paid tribute to the remarkable community legacy of the Swansons, father and two sons. Gilbert Swanson, it said, "was one of the very few men in Omaha whose name was sure to be on the list of doers when an important civic enterprise needed doing."

Gil was a loyal son and generous supporter of Dartmouth, and his place in our Class was a large and warmhearted one. Both the College and 1928 will miss him greatly.

1933

DR. ROBB GOLDER GARDINER, director of Placement at State University College, New Paltz, N. Y., died at his home in New Paltz on March 4, 1968 of an apparent heart attack.

Robb came to Dartmouth from Amsterdam (N. Y.) High School to which school he returned as a teacher on graduation in 1933. After four years in service in Europe and North Africa, he went to Syracuse University as coordinator of their dormitory program and successively was at Michigan State University, University of New Hampshire, and in 1962 went to State University College.

He received both Master of Arts and Doctor of Education degrees from Syracuse.

Robb was vice president of the Forensic Union and on the Green Book board while at Dartmouth.

He never married and is survived by a sister, Mrs. Mary Palmer of Phoenix, Arizona, to whom the Class extends its deepest sympathy.

1934

Death has ended the distinguished literary career of LEWIS HARRY BRAGUE JR., vice president and senior editor of Charles Scribner's sons.

Harry, editor to such renowned literary figures at the late Ernest Hemingway, Alan Villiers and Alan Paton, succumbed at a New York City hospital March 23 at age 55. Although he had been ill for about a year with a blood disorder, death came suddenly and unexpectedly.

In his eleven years with the book publishing firm, Harry helped to develop Paton as an outstanding author, aided Villiers in his later works, and in recent years had worked with Hemingway's widow in preparing Hemingway manuscripts for publication. Earlier in his career, Harry served in the story department of Columbia Pictures, was assistant editor of the Alexandria, La., Times and was on the editorial staff of Dodd, Mead & Co.

During World War II he was awarded the Combat Infantry Badge, Purple Heart, Bronze Star, and Certificate of Merit for action in the Normandy invasion and campaigns in France and Germany. He served throughout the war, rising to the rank of captain in the Army. He also sat as a judge in military government courts in Germany.

A native of Hinsdale, Mass., he entered Dartmouth from Dalton (Mass.) High School where he played football and baseball and was president of his class. At Dartmouth he majored in economics and became a member of Phi Kappa Psi.

Harry, who lived at 28 East 10th St., New York City and also maintained a home at Kingston, N. Y., drove racing cars for a hobby.

Bill DeRiemer, Harry's fraternity brother and roommate, represented the Class at the funeral service.

Besides his wife, Virginia, Harry leaves a son, Lewis Benjamin, and two daughters—Sandra and Deborah—by his first marriage.

To them, the Class of 1934 offers its deepest sympathy.

1935

Dartmouth lost a distinguished son, and the nation a respected career diplomat, when STEPHEN PALMER DORSEY died of cancer March 10, 1968, at Bethesda Naval Hospital. At the time of his death, Steve was Consul General at the American Embassy in Rome.

News of Steve's death, came as a shock to classmates far and wide. Few knew he was ill. He was stricken in late November, and after a preliminary diagnosis at the Air Force Hospital in Frankfort was flown back to Bethesda for treatment. His wife, Carol, and two daughters, Charlotte and Lynn, were with him when he died.

Memorial services were held in Washington Cathedral, with many classmates in attendance.

Steve's distinguished career in foreign service began in 1944, when he joined the State Department as vice chairman of the interdepartmental committee on cooperation with American republics. He soon began specialization on the Middle East, and served variously as Deputy Director of the Office of Near Eastern Affairs, and Counselor of the American embassies in Beirut and Khartoum.

In 1962 Steve was transferred to Italy and served as Consul General first in Genoa and then in the embassy in Rome. In recent years his home in Rome had been the mecca for '35ers travelling to the continent.

Steve was a recognized authority on Middle East economic affairs, combining his early training in business life (he started in the investment department of First Boston Corp., and later had his own consulting firm) with his foreign service training. During the middle '50s, he lectured on Middle East economic affairs at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies.

He was a student of early American architecture, and write several books on the subject. His works included Georgetown Houses ofthe Federal Period, 1780-1820, AlexandriaHouses, 1750-1820, and Early English Churchesin America, 1607-1807. He also wrote numerous articles on international affairs and history.

Steve was born in Omaha, Neb., and entered Dartmouth from Omaha Central High. He was a member of Alpha Delta Phi, Sphinx, and Green Key, served on the business board of The Dartmouth, and was manager of varsity hockey. Following graduation, he obtained an MBA degree from Harvard Business School in 1937, before embarking on his distinguished career.

The Class extends its deepest sympathy to Carol and her daughters.

Word has been received belatedly of the death of WILLIAM INGERSOLL ROSE of a heart attack, two years ago on April 29, 1966, in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Bill spent only his freshman year in Hanover, but he developed a deep and abiding love for the College. When it was time for his only son, Bill Jr., to select a college, he steered his interest toward Dartmouth. Young Bill graduated in the Class of 1966, and is now working for his Ph.D. in geology at Hanover.

Bill Sr. went abroad his sophomore year to study at the Sorbonne. When the banks closed in 1933, he turned briefly to farming to earn enough money to complete his education at the University of Michigan, where he graduated in 1937. He had majored in engineering, and worked for several years for the Pratt & Whitney Machine Tool Co. in Detroit. In 1950 he started his own business in Albuquerque and became an important sub-contractor on defense projects at Sandia Air Force Base, the White Sands Missile Base, and the Los Alamos atomic testing site.

Bill had married Mary Jane Brown in August 1936, who survives and resides in Albuquerque, on Star Route. He is also survived by young Bill, two daughters (Mrs. John Lind and Mrs. T. H. McElvain of Pecos, N. M.) and five grandchildren. The Class extends its sympathy, belatedly, to the family.

1937

RICHARD LEAVITT LUNSTED died January 25, at his home, 31 Dorothy Ave., in Holden, Mass., a suburb of Worcester, of coronary artery disease of the heart. He came to Dartmouth from Melrose arid Huntington School. His principal interest in college was the Band.

Since graduation he had been with the Employers Liability Assurance Corp., working UP to Special Agent as a casualty field man in Worcester County. While living in Winchendon he and his wife, Violet, were deeply involved in almost every civic and church activity imaginable. Later moving to Holden, he was instrumental in organizing the New England Region of The Classic Car Club of America, something that developed from his long interest in model railroading.

Dick was always a loyal and strong supporter of the College and his name will be noticeably missing from the rolls.

He leaves his wife, a married son, Stephen, and a grandson.

1940

WILLIAM JAMES BRYAN, president of Bryan and Corrigan, a public relations firm, died of cancer on March 17. He had lived for the past eight years at 16 Fox Ridge Road, Armonk, N. Y.

Bill entered our Class from Worcester Academy and for the two years he was with us he was an active and enthusiastic member of The players, an interest that continued throughout his life. He was a brother of Phi Sigma Kappa and a member of the freshman skating team. After leaving Hanover, Bill attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and acted in many stage productions under the name of Brian Gilbert. He enlisted in the cavalry in 1941 and was discharged as a Captain following service as the Assistant Provost Marshal of the Wiesbaden Air Forces Station in 1946. After the war he served as chief of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Air Force in the European Theater.

At the time of his death Bill was writing the screen play for a Walt Disney feature called "The Horse in Plain Cloth," and had earlier written the narration for a Disney production, "The Horse with the Flying Tail" which won an Oscar. He was on the Advisory Council of the Westchester Lighthouse of the Blind, and a member of the North Castle Players.

To his widow, Patricia, and his son, Michael, the Class extends its sincere sympathy in their loss.

1947

We were saddened to learn of the death of THOMAS WHITNEY VIETS on March 3, 1968, at his home on School St., East Granby, Conn.

Tom prepared for college at Simsbury High School, and while in Hanover became a member of Alpha Delta Phi. It's hard to believe, in reviewing his picture in the Aegis, that he has passed away.

He was a life-long resident of East Granby, Conn., and a member of the East Granby Congregational Church, where he served on the board of trustees for several years. He was also a member of the Dartmouth Club of Hartford, St. Mark's Lodge, AF&AM, of Granby, the East Granby Planning and Zoning Commission, the Republican Town Committee, and a former member of the Board of Education. He conducted his own real estate business in his home town.

The heartfelt sympathy of his classmates goes out to Tom's widow, Miriam; daughter, Deborah; and sister, Mrs. James G. Davis.

1950

It is with great sorrow that we report the passing of SHERWIN CAMPBELL BADGER JR., vice president of the Endowment Management & Research Corporation of Boston, on March 6, 1968, due to a cerebral hemorrhage.

Sherwin, who was born in Bronxville, N. Y., on July 26, 1928 and was a Dover, Mass., resident at the time of matriculation, prepared for Dartmouth at the Middlesex School in Concord, Mass. At Dartmouth he became a member of Kappa Sigma, majored in English, and was a member of the NROTC.

He served as a U. S. Navy line officer during the Korean conflict, mainly on destroyers. Following release from active duty in 1953 he was associated with Time Magazine as its West oast correspondent. Sherwin returned to the ast several years later, and was engaged in planning aiming work at Raytheon and in financial investment analysis for the Fidelity Management & Research Corporation prior to his recent affiliation with the Endowment Management & Research Corporation, which is the sanager of Yale University's endowment fund.

The Class extends its sympathies to Sherwin's wife, Mary, and their three sons, Mark James, Sherwin Campbell 3rd, and Matthew Owens, of Stonehedge Road, Lincoln, Mass.; his sister, his parents, and his brother David '58.

1953

A long, gallant struggle against cancer ended for JOHN PHILLIPS ROGERS, JR. on December 3, 1967 in South Shore Hospital, Weymouth, Mass.

A member of Zeta Psi fraternity at Dartmouth, John received the Charles Botany Prize in his senior year. He was born in Needham, Mass., March 6, 1931 and grew up in Marshfield Hills, Mass. He graduated from Phillips Exeter Academy in 1949 and served in the Army Medical Corps after graduating from the College.

At the time of his fatal illness, John was employed in the data processing division of Honeywell, Inc. in Newton, Mass. and resided at 74 Pleasant St., Hingham. He had previously been employed as a computer programmer at the John Hancock Life Insurance Company in Boston and at Wirthmore Feeds, Inc., Waltham. He was a member of the Hingham Tennis Club and of the Evangelical Congregational Church, Hingham, where memorial services were held December 6.

Our deepest sympathy goes to his widow, the former Deborah Damon, whom he married in 1958; to his three sons, Mark, Robert and Scott; his daughter, Susan; and to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John P. Rogers Sr. '24, his brother and two sisters.

1960

It is with regret that we report the untimely death of MICHAEL GRACE MENAKER, 29, who was secretary of our Class in senior year. He died December 10, 1967 at Brookdale Hospital in Brooklyn, N. Y., from complications following an operation on his knee.

Mike graduated from high school in his hometown of Nyack, N. Y., in 1956. At college he became a member of Alpha Delta Phi fraternity and Dragon. After graduating with honors, he received an LL.B. in 1963 from the University of Virginia Law School where he was named to a legal honorary society. He then became an associate with the prominent New York law firm of Davis Polk Wardwell Sunderland & Kiendl.

All of Mike's friends and classmates extend their deepest sympathy to his wife, Penelope Hart Menaker of 248 Henry Street, Brooklyn Heights, N. Y.; to his parents, Mr. and Mrs Robert O. Menaker of South Nyack, and to his brother, Robert.

As noted elsewhere Mike's classmates and friends are establishing a memorial fund in his name at the College.
