1920
Len and Marie Davis, who summer at Nubble Point, York Beach, Maine, attended the Canterbury, N. H., summer picnic at Bob Burroughs' farm and passed on to me an interesting news item about their son, Harry L., currently Professor of Behavioral Sciences at the Graduate School of Business at the University of Chicago. Harry has been invited to serve as a member of the faculty of the European Institute for Advanced Studies in Management in Brussels, Belgium, for the current year. The Institute was established by a group of individuals from countries within Europe and from the United States to complement and enhance doctoral education in management. Harry's research interests are consumer behavior, family decision-making, entreprenurial behavior, and small group behavior. By the way, Harry graduated from Dartmouth in 1959. Congratulations, Len and Marie and Harry.
Presiding over the annual meeting of the New Hampshire City and Town Clerks Association at the Mt. Washington Hotel on August 20-22 was our esteemed classmate, Charlie Crathern. The Colonel has long held the offices of Treasurer and Town Clerk of Mason, N. H., his old home town where he now resides. He can now bask in the untroubled splendor of the office of past president, an office to which most presidents aspire.
Many issues ago I referred to SherryBaketel as having lots of bounce, whereupon Sherry said that word "bounce" intrigued him because it reminded him of an old time drink called "cherry bounce." I alluded to this in my class notes and it brought forth several interesting items of correspondence. For example, Almus Russell sent me a recipe from Marjorie Messer's "Foods of Old New England" as follows Cherry Bounce: 12 pounds of pitted cherries (can't you see Sherry pitting the cherries); 4 pounds of sugar; ¼ teaspoon of allspice; ¼ teaspoon of cinnamon; 4 blades of mace; 1 quart of brandy; 1 quart of rum. Strain the juice of the cherries through a coarse cloth. Boil it with the sugar and spices until all the scum has disappeared. Cool. Then add the brandy and rum. Bottle.
Howie Parks, 1918, has come up with another version of cherry bounce but space does not allow its inclusion herein. We will work it in next time, Howie.
Congratulations go to Dr. E. GrosvenerPlowman who was awarded in June 1971 an honorary degree of Doctor of Science in Business Administration by the University of Maine ."Gro" has had a distinguished career as a University teacher-scholar; as a writer of several outstanding books in the field of transportation; as a vice-president for traffic in the U. S. Steel Corporation; as Director of Military Traffic Service of the U. S. Department of Defense; and as Deputy Undersecretary of Commerce for Transportation. Though currently "retired" he remains active in public service, having served as Chairman of the Maine Aeronautics Commission and a member of the Maine Transportation Commission. He lectures in business administration at the University of Maine's Portland and Orono campuses and elsewhere.
After 42 years in the practice of medicine Dr. Erwin C. Miller announced his retirement in August 1971. "Doc's" long and distinguished career in medicine is well known to many of us in the Class. He and Harriet are avid supporters of the Alumni College and return each summer to participate in its interesting programs of continuing education. They find the experience very refreshing. In addition it enables "Doc" to check up on the advances made in the Dartmouth Medical School where he once taught in his younger days. The rejuvenation of medical education at Dartmouth meets with his approval, we feel sure, because he "thinks young" despite the passage of time.
Another "young man" who doesn't stay idle for long is Dean Emeritus Al Frey. The University of Maine will not let Al work in peace his farm in Richmond, Maine. It has insisted that he continue to teach his well-known courses in marketing and advertising in Maine's School of Business Administration in Orono. Al goes on for yet another year.
Reuning informally in June, having missed his fiftieth, was Tudor Bradley. He and Jessie were on hand in Hanover and at the post reunion party at Loon Mountain. It appears that Heritage Village in South- bury, Conn., (06488) is the retirement home of Walker Fielding. Walker can now be found at 91-B, Heritage Village. He joins the Tink Lombards who are by now old residents of the Village, having moved there from New Jersey more than a year ago. The Roy Rubels now reside at Concourse Drive (11-F), Turtle Creek, Tequesta, Fla., 33458, according to a late dispatch from the home office. And another Floridian is Duke Bellen who gives his new address as 3030 South Ocean Blvd., Apt. 111, Palm Beach, Fla., 33480. Meanwhile Art Earle reports Box 3017, Talcottville, Conn. 06080, but I suspect it is for the summer only as Art has been residing in Vero Beach, Fla.
