Ed Williams "dropped me a great letter from Hanover which was packed with news about '64's, but neglected to mention anything about himself. If anyone out there knows what Ed is doing, please let us know.
Ed writes that Jim Jacobson (you'll remember him as the crimson-headed yet mild-mannered Gamma Delt who skied circles around you at Suicide Six) has complete." a Ph.D. at the University of Utah, and is now doing post-doctoral work in biology at Yale. When last we heard, Jim's wife, Ann, was expecting a potential addition to the Dartmouth ski team of 1989. ,
Bob "Emmet" Hiller, another of great slope artists, is finding it tough to get any skiing in at Little Rock Air Force Bas in Jacksonville, Ark. Bob is now a dentis, and holds the rank of captain in the Medical Corps.
John Timbers may be found at Sullivan & Cromwell of Wall Street fame. John and his wife, Marilyn, keep a "neat place" (whatever that means) on Willow Street in Brooklyn Heights. It is rumored that John keeps in shape by running around Prospect Park every so often. The Park's local muggers have long since learned that there really aren't any pockets in that faded green sweatsuit.
In closing his letter, Ed Williams lamented the demise of yet another landmark to men of Dartmouth: Edith's Cut Rate is no more. The official word is that Edith was forced to close because a new town building is being constructed in her block. Those who patronized her heavily, however, will realize that certain breakthroughs in technology spelled her doom. First, her "razor blade traffic" was damaged considerably by the advent of the longer-lasting stainless steel blade. Squibb and Eli Lilly provided the coup de grace.
My favorite New York spy, Herb McCord's wife Judi, writes that Lew Eisenberg and his charming wife, Judy, were blessed with another daughter in September. Lew is quietly building a fortune in the market, and served as the treasurer of Concerned Citizens for Lindsay during the last New York mayoralty campaign. After the election, it is rumored that Lew had to be rushed to Bellevue, where he was treated for a severe case of self-inflicted hickies. His letter-writing hand is healing, however, and we hope to hear from him soon.
Brad Evans is out of the Navy, and is studying at Columbia Business School with Mike Danzig. Bugs and Mike share an apartment on the East Side with Humphrey(Bob) Cahners which has been described by some sources as a "real zoo." The boys in blue are still murmuring about the historic champagne brunch they threw after the Princeton game.
Last month I reported the wedding of Bob Freeman; I have received a report that, prior to his honeymoon trip, Bob and his bride attended a party ill their honor at the former residence of Alex Varkas. All reports indicate that Alex's landlord was totally unreasonable in his capricious and cruel eviction action.
Perry Butler and his lovely wife, Twinks, have opened a New York style bar in San Francisco called "Perry's." (You were expecting, maybe, "Aldis'"?) I think Perry has the right idea.
Tom Spangenburg is an account executive with Young and Rubicam. He and his wife, Judy, and their son, Tyler live in Connecticut.
Bill Gunn is in charge of broadcasting for Time, Inc. in South America, and has been known to sip a lonely glass of muscatel from time to time in Caracas.
Jay "Fan" Regan and his wife, Amy, are the proud parents of a new son - James Sutton Regan III. James is probably the first infant ever to grow up banned from the Hanover Country Club golf course and placed on double College Warning by the U.G.C.J.C.
Scott Creelman and his wife, Joanna, now live in Pennsylvania. Scotty is in charge of Scott Towels for the Scott Paper Company. My source tells me that Scott had planned to be in New York for the Columbia game, but his house burned down the day before.
Rick Isaacson writes that he is engaged to Phyllis Wisch, the foreign language production editor for Harper & Row in New York. I lost track of Rick after I heard he had graduated from Tuck School. Apparently he is now with International Management, Inc., a Cleveland-based firm that manages the business affairs of well-known sports personalities.
Pete Koenig, his wife, Pat, and their daughter Kimberly, are alive and well in New Jersey. Pete is in law school in Newark, and writes that "the Navy was never like this!" He challenges all visitors to the Newark area to a "friendly game of Risk to the death."
Lennie Green, one of '64's top scholars, is engaged to Rita Gevirtz, a pert world history and problems of democracy teacher at Central High School in Fairfield, Conn. Lennie finished Harvard Law, and spent the last two years serving as a Peace Corps volunteer in Ethiopia. He is a member of the New Hampshire bar and the Federal Courts, and was recently appointed to be a Justice of the Peace. He is associated with the law firms of Green, Romprey, Sullivan and Beaumont of Manchester and Salem, N.H.
This month's "'64 Career Spotlight" shines brightly upon B.J. Batchelder whose meteoric rise to the top has dazzled the business world. B.J. has cast aside his vice presidency and has recently been named president of an advertising franchise company in Peoria, Ill. Those wishing to congratulate B.J. may address correspondence to him at The Batchelder Company in Peoria.
That's it for now. Please keep those cards and letters coming in with news about yourself or other '64's.
