1965
As I write these lines I am assuming that there will be a spring in 1969, and that it will have sprung by the time this column is printed. But since we in New England have just been blitzed by the second nor'easter in three weeks perhaps I'm being overly optimistic. At any rate we expect a thaw at least by reunion time and we have made arrangements for the best possible weather for June 20-22.
Incidentally, you will receive from the college this month information about reunion housing and room reservations. Once you have reserved a room through the college and made a reunion reservation and deposit the most difficult part is over. All that's left is to get a few pairs of bermudas ready, wash out your trusty drinking mug, take a quick refresher skim through the Green Book, and have your body in Hanover by Friday, June 20. Leave the rest to us - we guarantee a fabulous three days.
The following is reported with great joy and fatherly pride: on February 16 Linda presented me with a son - Michael Warren Mahoney, a 7 lbs. 12 oz. potential All-Ivy flanker - Phi Bete, but unlikely considering his heritage. Our happiness is endless, as are our nights.
Several engagements have recently come to our attention. One involves Gerry d'Aquin and Miss Polly Williams (Bennett College). They plan to be married early in May. He is an .Army lieutenant stationed in Washington, D. C., where he is affiliated with the Foreign Science and Technology Center. Since graduating Gerry has picked up an M.A. in geography from the University of Cincinnati and an M.B.A. from Columbia.
A June wedding is planned by Al Boyce and Miss Sally Ely (Jackson '65). He is now finishing up his M.B.A. at Stanford after two years in the Navy.
Though we have received no official word, late February was to have been the time for Ned Greeley and Miss Monica Newland to tie the knot. Both are now teachers in Washington, D. C. Previously they had been Peace Corps volunteers in Eastern Nigeria (now Biafra).
Chuck Cumming and Miss Carla Stanley were married last December, and are now living in New Britain, Conn. He is with the Personnel Research Dept. of Aetna Life and Casualty Co. of Hartford. Carla also works for Aetna and attends Central Connecticut State College.
December wedding news was also provided by Bob Witty and Miss Jacqueline Bechet. They are residing in Albany, N. Y., while Bob finishes up doctoral work in physiology at Albany Medical College. Jackie teaches English in an area high school.
The Northern Trust Co. of Chicago has recently announced the promotion of MikeZook to assistant cashier. He has been with the bank since graduation.
Recent word from Philadelphia is high in praise for the work Harvey Welker has been doing for their Model Cities Program. Harvey is employed by the R & E Engineering firm, but has undertaken a study of student and parental attitude toward public schools as chairman of the Feedback Project sponsored by The Education Committee of Philly's Model Cities Program. The project seeks to answer many vital questions about the efficacy of the North Philadelphia school system. Harvey's engineering background has aided him in preparing a computer program for the tabulation and analysis of the survey data.
Happy Spring!
