1964

Steve Bachman has written to bring us up-to-date on his activities. Steve has been the Navy OCS route, which led to a thrilling experience on an LST (Large, Slow Target) and in Vietnam. From there, Steve moved to Los Angeles and did a stint with the Container Corporation of America. He has just finished his first year toward an M.B.A. at Boston University. His wife, Carol, and his baby daughter, Linda, allow him to indulge in an occasional hockey game, but Steve confesses that his body has decayed in recent years, and that his "Storm Kings" shirt literally fell off his back in sheer surrender this winter. Steve reports seeing Jack Kaufman, who is in his second year at Columbia Law School, and Don Hight, who is practicing medicine in Boston. Steve has continued to indulge his avid interest in racing lightning class sailboats, and will be teaching sailing at the Indian Harbor Yacht Club in Greenwich, Conn., this summer.

C. Wendell Smith writes that he has been channeling his literary talents into "The Phoenix," a political newspaper published in Cambridge, Mass. "C.W." claims the dis- tinction of having been gassed in front of the Jastice Department in Washington last November.

I spent a pleasant, post-convention weekend in New York recently, and had the opportunity to do some field research on sixty-fourdom in the Big Apple. Herb McCord and his wife, Judi, extended their superb hospitality cto me, and I was able to visit with many old friends. Fans of Bill Gingham will be glad to know that he and Anne are alive and well. Bill is with the corporate finance division of Bache and Company.

Bob Cahners was in New York for the weekend, and was seen driving a 22-foot U-Haul truck to all the "in" night-spots. Bob and I made a pilgrimage to Pedro's, where we tried unsuccessfully to trade an 8 x 12 color glossy of Jay Reagan for a couple of stingers.

I was also able to see Bob Freeman and Margo, and Mike Dancik. Bob is a budding account executive whose picture (replete with red vest and cereal spoon) appears on the side panels of the newly designed Quaker Life box. Mike reports that NickListorti has been promoted to the position of assistant manager for circulation for Life magazine. Predictably, the New York mail strike began on "Panda's" first day on the job.

This month's '64 career spotlight shines admiringly upon Lew Eisenberg, whose hectic daily routine at Goldman Sachs reminded me of a cross between a tobacco auction, Custer's last stand, fraternity rush, and the action at the gaming tables of Monte Carlo.

Harvey Tettlebaum, the keeper of '64's coffers, sent me a bundle of class news recently. Hary now lives on a quaint farm in Jefferson City, Mo., and reports that his crops are doing fine.

Ed Jaeger writes that he is marketing representative for Engle and Hambright, Inc. of Lancaster, Ed married the former Elizabeth Pierce of Longmeadow, Mass., and has seen service as an Army captain in Vietnam.

Bud McGrath writes that, since his 1968 discharge from the Army (one year in Vietnam), he has been chipping away at a Ph.D. in English Literature at the University of Texas. He reports that his wife, Lois, and two-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, sustain his sanity and morale, and that he hopes to be teaching by September of 1972.

Mike Bloom and his wife, Lonna, are in Panama where Mike is a deputy director of the Peace Corps operation there. Bill Woods is closing in on an M.B.A. at Stanford. He'll finish in June, and reports that he and his wife, Pris, and their daughter, Kristin, plan to join the affluent society.

That's it for now. Keep those cards and letters coming with news about yourself or other '64's. Later.

Dartmouth-Yale games produce mixedfeelings for Dave Smoyer '63 (l), businessmanager of the Yale Athletic Associationand Associate Director of Athletics. Withhim is Jack Blake, ticket manager.
