1957

In a few short weeks the 1968 Alumni Fund will be history and this is my last chance to remind you to get that check in the mail. Why not sit down right now and do it - help put 1957 on the top again!

Clark Griffiths has been elected president of the Dartmouth Club of the Hanover Area. This club has over one thousand members and is one of the largest alumni clubs. Another classmate, Don Spalding, also has been elected president of the Dartmouth Club of Central Vermont. Don lives in Northfield, Vt., and is a professor at Norwich University. Good luck, men, in the year ahead.

Recently, I received an item from Rev. Larry Selig which told of the tremendous ecumenical spirit in Saranac Lake, N.Y. The item starts, "A Roman Catholic priest returned from Mass in a Methodist Church Friday to a Catholic rectory where a Presbyterian minister now is living." Larry is the pastor of the Presbyterian Church and while he and his family were away in January, the radiators and pipes in the Manse burst in twenty-below-zero weather. He needed a place to stay and was invited by the Catholic priests to stay in the guest room in the rectory. In December, a fire destroyed St. Bernard's Roman Catholic Church, thus the Catholic services have been held in the Methodist Church. All of the people were in trouble and there seemed to be a real understanding for mutual problems. We hope by now things are back to normal.

On July 1, Lloyd Weinreb, who teaches criminal law and criminal process, will become Professor of Law in Harvard University. He has taught at Harvard since 1965.

Edward Lumbard of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, law clerk for Justice Harlan of the U.S. Supreme Court, and a staff attorney to the Warren Commission while he served in the Criminal Division of the Department of Justice.

Art Pierce will be in an admirable spot for Dartmouth football next fall. Art has been named Superintendent of Schools for Hanover Supervisory Union 22 and the Norwich School District as of July 1.

Before that he was a teacher in the Concord, Mass., and Greenwich, Conn., public schools.

Does anyone need help financing some real estate? If so, call on Bob Eigen, who has formed the realty company of R. J. Eigen & Co.

He is quite active in charitable affairs, having served as chairman of real estate divisions of the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

I know it is a bit early to be thinking of next year's football season, but I was talking to Dan Goggin this week and he and Dick Canton have already reserved the Hotel Continental on Harvard Square for the class of 1957 and their guests after the Harvard game. You will hear more about this next fall but note this now and plan ahead. Hope you all have a wonderful summer.
