1962

The nip is back in the air and the colors are just spectacular. It's autumn again in New England. A brisk romp with the family erases the events of the day, and makes one wonder just a bit if the featured personalities on the Walter Cronkite war hour might benefit from an October day in New Hampshire.

Taking the case of the people to the legislature of Broward County is Bill Winegar. Bill heads up the Citizens for Better Government group in Cooper City, Fla., and is leading the fight against the "encroachment of the concrete jungle and spot zoning." When not out campaigning Bill can be found at work with Associates, Inc. in Hollywood, Fla., or at home in Cooper City with his wife and three children.

Dick LaPoint has been appointed Assistant Trust Officer at the Fidelity Union Trust Company in Newark, N. J. He previously was on the Investment Advisory Staff of First National City Bank of New York for five years, and later was with the DuPont Company as a senior portfolio analyst. Dick was active in student affairs at Dartmouth and stayed on to get an MBA from Tuck School in 1963. He and his wife live in New York.

Bob Willis is seeking to promote an economy based on conservation values. Bob is an economics lecturer at Wesleyan University and last spring was a principal speaker in the "Environment 70" series presented at Wesleyan.

The old tennis buff, John Ryder has a new racket (ouch). John's a member of the bar. He was sworn in as a Massachusetts attorney at the Supreme Court Building in Boston. John is doing his thing for the National Shawmut Bank in Boston where he earned his coins while hitting the books at the night session of Suffolk Law School.

Waiting for the strike to spread is Dick SSragraw, western news bureau manager for the Chrysler-Plymouth division of Chrysler. Dick joined up with the company in 1967 following a tour as a reporter with the Detroit Free Press. All of you guys out on the West Coast, look up Dick in L. A.

That physics expert up in Syracuse, N. Y., was caught off guard last January when wife Barbara surprised everyone with identical twin boys. John Sprafkin otherwise keeps busy at Syracuse University where he is an assistant professor of physics.

Dave Schorer sent on a nice note from Fairfax, Va., where he boards with wife Lonnie and their two children between trips to D. C. where he keeps things under control at the State Department. Dave previously had spent three and a half years in Thailand, returning to the U. S. in June of '69.

Boston has a new eye expert in Ernie Weymuller who began his residency at the Mass. Eye and Ear Infirmary. Ernie spent some time in the Air Force and for the past two years he and his wife, Alice, were in Athens, Greece.

Check your local bookstore for "Joshua R. Giddings and The Tactics of Radical Politics" which deals with the period prior to the U. S. Civil War (the one in 1861). Jim Stewart turned out the work from St. Paul, Minn., where he toils for the History Department at Macalester College. My thanks to Dottie, Jim, and the two children for the note.

Chuck Gilmari says that if we fail to make public the notice of his 1968 marriage to Gay Marcus of Highland Park, Ill., he'll stop paying his dues. So get out the check book, Chuck. Chuck and Gay are living in Yvoire, France (near Geneva) as Chuck is director of sales motivation for Investors Overseas Services in Ferney-Voltaire, France.

I'm not sure" just how he managed it, but Don Berry earned his Ph.D. from Yale last June, and headed right out for a job. Of course Don (8), Mike (7), Tim (5), Scotty (2), and (finally) Jennifer (1) exerted some influence. Thanks to Don's wife for the news.

Did you ever meet someone who worked with Booz? Well, John Heiss labors in Chicago for Booz Allen and Hamilton as a management consultant (ouch again). John has been busy since leaving Dartmouth with five years in the Army (Germany and Vietnam) and a stop at Wharton in Phillie for his M.B.A. Incidentally he took some time in November of 1965 to marry Susan Granville.

Thanks to the adjoining column I have been blessed with a scattering of requests to innovate and renovate this column. JohnSchempf is one who has asked that we emmulate the '6l effort. This was discussed at some length last May by the class executive committee. The decision reached was to utilize the class newsletter for expressions of attitudes and samplings of opinions as more in depth coverage is available. Hopefully you will agree that Bob Katz's last newsletter was excellent.

Keep those cards and letters coming.
