Class of The Year! I am sure that you have heard the news by now. On May 2 we were honored by the College as the class that put it all together in 1969-70 in the best tradition of Dartmouth. Your class officers were all in Hanover for the annual Class Officers Weekend. You can be sure that we celebrated that Saturday night.

However, there is plenty of celebration left in us, and I hope that you will all be in Hanover on June 19-21 for our 10th to help get it all out of our system. Tom Brock and Spence Morgan, our reunion chairmen, tell me that Bob Pike, Bob Barker and Sheldon Lippe are coming from California; Bruce Ducker and Jim Foch are coming from Colorado; Dave Haight is making it from Oklahoma; and Jim Adler is coming from Puerto Rico. You have no excuse.

The news of Alexander Lampee's death on "March 4 was a shock to all of us. CliffAnderson's sensitive memorial notice conveys all of our feelings.

A news clip from Minneapolis notes that Mike Hollera has been named President of Brooks-Scanlon, Inc., a lumber producer. At the same time, in Newton, Mass., International Data Corp. announced that TomFranklin and Maxwell "Skip" Eveleth had been appointed to new positions. Tom is now general counsel for the firm; he had been with a Manchester, N. H., law firm. We reported Skip's promotion previously.

In Connecticut, our class is achieving increasing prominence in the fields of law and banking. Bruce Lively has been promoted to trust officer of the Union Trust Company of New Haven. Bob Argazzi and Pete Schwartz both have been made partners of Hartford law firms. Bob is with Hoppin, Carey and Powell. Pete's firm is Gordon, Muir and Fitzgerald. Pete is president of the Dartmouth Club of Hartford and is a member of the national executive board of the Dartmouth College Club Officers Association.

Craig Jameson's engagement announcement has been mentioned in a previous issue. However, Roberta did get Craig in and out of church, and then, they both went off to Europe for some skiing. George Binder helped see them off.

Richard C. Harrison is currently director of Systems and Data Processing for the Lahey Clinic Foundation in Boston. He is working toward the implementation of an online Appointment Scheduling System and the Lahey Medical History Taking System.

John Bracken has been named assistant vice president of the First Seneca Bank and Trust Company of Oil City, Pa. John is in charge of the bank's investment portfolio. Liverpool, Ohio, High School students have the benefit of a very experienced principal. Jim Haught recently completed the requirements for the Doctor of Education degree in Educational Administration at Syracuse University. After receiving his M.A. at Oberlin College, Jim served as an administrator in the American International School in New Delhi, India. Also, in academic circles, Ridler Page has been appointed alumni trustee at Vermont Academy. He brings experience in dealing with student problems to his seat on the board. As chief legal counsel for the New Hampshire Chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, he worked with Dartmouth students following last year's campus disturbances.

A local Arlington, Va., paper gives the following account of Charlie Radigan, who is an attorney there. "Radigan may become an avid cola drinker. He hit his tee shot on the first hole at Washington out of bounds, but his ball hit an R.C. Cola truck and bounced back onto the course." AllenStowe, with whom he had been playing, reports that Charlie has not switched to cola.

Both Errol Paine's and Dwight Beebe's names have appeared in this column recently. However, good news brings them up again. Errol has announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for state senate in the Maine June primaries. While Errol will be running in June, Dwight plans to be caught. His June wedding to Janis Fuller of Norwich, Conn., has been announced.

Some of you may wonder why some news in this column is very brief. It simply is due to the fact that it comes in that way. For example, Bill Modahl returned my news inquiry form with four words on it other than his address. They were: attorney, married, two daughters. More may hopefully be found about Bill by contacting him at 650 California Street, San Francisco.

In whatever form, your notes have been appreciated. This is my last column and I want to thank you for your help. It has been fun. This column has not attempted to be different in the style suggested by my fellow contributor in the Class of 1961. In his April column, Joel Heathcote warned his classmates that they might "turn out just like the Classes of '51 and '414 and '31 and '21 and on forever. That's not to put them down; it's that we feel different, let's act different!" Acting "different" seems to be very big with people these days. It's interesting to me that they seem to need all sorts of chemicals, sounds, and strobe lights to be able to feel that way. If Joel's replies have not increased since that article, the replies represent less than 4% of his class which may indicate being like a '51, etc., is not an undesirable stance to the '61s and why not? I have a feeling that most of the '61s, '60s, '51s, etc., are too busy building things to help you tear them down, Joel.
