1943

'Forty-three has done it again! Back at the still, our own Rad Hibben is coming out with a book of do-it-yourself recipes for making liquor. He admits to three interests - church, genealogy and making booze. Seriously, Rad and wife Virginia have taken to making their own and he is putting together a book on how to do it. He earlier published a book on genealogy and has offered to look up English genealogy for any member of the class interested. Rad is recovering nicely from a lesion on the optic nerve but has not been slowed down from his leadership in "doing something" about Equal Employment Opportunity in the Post Office Department here in Washington.

Heading north, Bud Kast has resigned after six years as headmaster of Hawken School (Cleveland) to become headmaster of Germantown Academy in Fort Washington, Pa. Before Cleveland, Bud was headmaster of Short Hills (N. J.) Country Day School. He has continued active in professional organizations including the chairmanship of the Committee on School Administration of the National Association of Independent Schools, Country Day School Headmasters' Association and the like. Cleveland will also miss him as a trustee of the Cleveland Playhouse and member of the Advisory Committee of the Cleveland Institute of Art. Maybe we'll get him up for the fall reunions again! And while we're in the northeast, Bob Field has been elected an executive committee member of Price Waterhouse. Bob's oldest son (also Robert) is teaching at Penncrest High School near Philadelphia.

Attorney George Hebard has been appointed to the board of the Erie County Agricultural Society in Hamburg, N. Y. George, who served in the Marines in the South Pacific and Okinawa in WW II, is in private practice in Hamburg and also acts as village attorney. Further east in Syracuse, N. Y., Bill Moseley has been named employee relations manager at the Industrial Chemicals Division's Syracuse works of Allied Chemical Corp. He now lives at 515 W. Manchester Road in Syracuse. And way Down East, Dr. BillSchumacher, director for Maine's Bureau of Mental Health, is back on the speaking circuit in New England.

New promotions include Walter Pettit as vice president of Burdine's Dadeland in Coral Gables, Fla. (He and wife Betty have two children, William, a student at Auburn University and Pam, who attends The Everglades School in Miami.) Ernie Ball, whose move was noted in Herb Marx' Clanging Bells, is president of the Almont Shipping Co., the largest bulk cargo terminal in Wilmington, N. C. Bob McQueen is now an executive vice president of The Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company in Newark, N. J. In his spare time, Bob also serves as president of the Millburn Board of Education.

Ed Lider writes that he has assembled an outstanding team of regional agents for the 1970 Alumni Fund. So that you will be prepared for them with your checkbooks, they include: John Hyde, John Kimball, Al Mcßean, Jim Doucette, Mort Pechter, Dick Bugbee, George Barlow, Charlie Dittmar, Brad Cole, Stan Calder, Johnny Conn, Fred Lent, Orm Birkland, Jack Troster, and (for Memorial gifts) Kelly Coffin. Let's help make this a banner year for '43 in the campaign to show our new President Kemeny which is the No. 1 class!

Secretary, 1001 Conn. Ave., N.W. Washington, D. C. 20036
