1938
While no official survey has yet been conducted, informal sources seem to indicate that 1938's turn-out for its tremendous thirtieth in June will be a very substantial one indeed. Various casual contacts of mine have indicated that they will be on tap along with their families for that festive occasion. Remember to reserve the time and make every effort to hie yourself north with yourself and tribe. Reunions come only once in five years; so be sure not to miss this one.
Ling-Temco-Vought, Inc., of Dallas announces the appointment of Fran Reilly, genial former attorney of Worcester, Mass., as vice-president of the company; Fran was formerly assistant treasurer.
Fran joined LTV in 1967 as assistant treasurer when the firm acquired Wilson . Co. He had held the position of treasure with Wilson since 1965. Prior to joining LTV, Fran had been associated with Wilson since 1953. He first served as a corporate attorney in the headquarters law division of Wilson in Chicago. In 1956 he was transferred to the real estate dept. and in W became manager of the real estate and insurance division. He was subsequently elected treasurer of Wilson Co. From 1946 to 1953 he practiced law in Boston and Worcester Mass.
Hanover's leading entrepreneur, Earl Ward, and wife, Doris, are off this month for a quick trip to the west coast to visit children, grandchildren, and other relatives Earl and Doris are, naturally, planning on attending the reunion in June, on their return from their western swing.
Bud Fox sends word that Jack McIntosh, a realtor of Chicago, has been nominated for president of the Chicago Real Estate Board. A 27-year veteran of the real estate field, Jack specializes in the sale of residential and apartment buildings and management of income properties. He started in the mortgage department of H. F. Philipsborn & Co. after his graduation from Dartmouth in 1938.
After serving as lieutenant in the Navy in World War II, Mac joined the realty firm of his stepfather, Ralph Heinsimer, as a salesman; later they formed a partnership. He also started his own business in 1963, while retaining the partnership. He has also served as president of the South Side Real Estate Board and secretary of the CREB. He is a senior member of the Society of Real Estate Appraisers.
And from Bud himself: "This old 1938er is married to a lovely grandmother! Our oldest son and his wife have just had a baby girl, Alicia, born March 9 in Military Hospital in Seoul, Korea. Mike, our son, is a captain with the 2nd Div. (Army). His wife. Peggy, is a little bit of a lovely girl and all is well. It will probably be the end of the year before we see our first grandchild when his tour of duty is up, and they return to the States and resume law career. Who knows? This young lady - Alicia - may go to Dartmouth if present trends continue! Class of 1990!
"Planning on reunion in June; however, our second son, Scott, called us from California the other night and announced he's planning to be married to a very lovely gal he met in Mexico. They are both school teachers in Southern California. We met her while in L.A. on vacation a couple of weeks ago. Naturally, a wedding would take priority! But, I am sure they'll schedule before or after our reunion."
In answer to an inquiry from me as to a change in address, Fred Davis writes that there have been two radical changes in his life during the last year: A divorce last year, and he retired from daily business and devoted his time now to personal affairs, a directorship, and a couple of businesses that he has had on the side for a few years.
"I have a house in Palm Springs, Calif., for the winters and an apartment in Detroit for the summer action. Have been travel- ling quite a bit and playing golf a good deal, I finished second in the Bob Hope Desert . Classic this year with the great help of ama- teur and professional partners.
"Bumped into Terry Holeran the other day at Bermuda Dunes Country Club. ClarkBarrett is probably showing up here in Palm Springs tomorrow for a couple days of golf. Outside of that, no news of particular interest to the Big Green."
Another classmate has deserted the environs of greater New York with its unsympathetic and forbidding climate for the more attractive surroundings of Florida. Says Ed Thomas: "I am happy to say that at last I am nachieving a goal and that is to become a permanent resident in the beautiful state of florida. Last January, my wife and I packed everything up and left Greenwich and New Haven railroad and moved down here. Last May, however, we contracted to buy a new home was scheduled for completion on January 20. On January 20, due to all sorts of construction problems-lack of materials, longshoremen's strike, lack of skilled a concreate slab. Therefore, we had to find temporary quarters fast. Fortunately, we did so on the Boca beach- a very nice place. Now our home is showing some signs of resemblinga house, and I hope to be settled before the end of April.
"What about the future? After we get settled I'm going to get some sort of business going down here — at present type unknown -and also enjoy the warm good living. Can't say more ftan that right now."
A nice note from Art Van Kirk from San Francisco sends his very best to friends, Sox raider Dick Keresy, Bill Mosenthal, the Baron, Jack Stephens, Lou Moorman, Ross Bornemann, and Bob Hallock.
At long-last the earth shaking news has become official. Mr. and Mrs. Sidney H. Schwartz of Portland, Me., announced the of their daughter, Miss Sandra Jean Schwartz of Boston to Mr. Frank Webster Brett of Needham, Mass. An April wedding is planned.
Miss "Schwartz was graduated from South Portland High School and The Academe Moderne of Boston. She is associated with the national advertising firm of Reach, McClinton & Co., Inc. Mr. Brett is a member of Phi Gamma Delta fraternity and holds the rank of lieutenant colonel in the Army Reserves Program. He is owner and president of the F. W. Brett & Co., a Boston general contracting firm.
Slowly the year comes to a close and will probably be climaxed by reunions; I shall look forward to seeing one and all here in Hanover that momentous early week tor our tremendous thirtieth.
