1942
CLASS PROJECT SELECTED—In a "Dear Leonard" letter to Dean of Faculty Rieser on August 12, 1971 Class President Richard W. Lippman announced that the Class of '42 was contributing $1,000 to the College's 1971-72 Instructional Development Fund. This donation, which comes from the Class treasury (no special fundraising was undertaken) is the Class Project and may be used for whatever project, or equipment, is deemed necessary to assist the instructional programs of the curriculum.
The letter stated, "We hope to continue giving $1,000 every year to the Instructional Development Fund as long as the Class treasury can afford it, and especially as long as the Fund's budget remains slashed by the College's current austerity program."
Our Class Project committee researched many areas of need on campus to determine where our efforts could do the most good for Dartmouth. The business of the College is teaching and learning, and whenever we can give strength to that purpose our role as alumni achieves greater fulfillment. The Class of '42 is hoping that other alumni classes seeking projects will join in the support of this important source of funds that helps enrich learning at Dartmouth College.
'42 SONS IN CLASS OF '75—Members of the Class whose sons have been accepted into the Dartmouth Class of 1975 include Bill Clark, Walt Eisenman, ChickEmslie, Bob Encherman, Bert Englert,Jim Erwin, Stu Finch, Dave Heald, Charlie Hunt, Ed McLaughlin, DickMagee, and John Williamson. Bill Winternitz's son was accepted but has elected to go elsewhere.
RELEASED IN EAST GERMANY—While traveling through Georgia your secretary happened to see a picture and news item carried in the "Atlanta Journal" (July 29, 1971) relating to the release of Dr. Hans Rosenstock Huessy's son, Mark, from East Germany. Mark was arrested last January on what he called false charges and sentenced to seven years' imprisonment. His advice to people in East Germany ... "Keep quiet!"
STORRS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE? You thought Storrs was in Connecticut? Well, it is and he will be ... Johnny Storrs of John Storrs & Associates, Architects (Portland, Oregon) is visiting the Yale Architecture School this month (Oct.) to lecture. He has offered the same to Dartmouth. When Storrs is in New Hampshire, that's news, but there's more that almost rates a banne headline! Big John reports that he just became a father (he was 51 in August), his fourth child, a boy, named Leather.
BOND NEW DIRECTOR—The new Academic Director of Continuing Education at Dartmouth College is Harry Bond. His first assignment on the new job is the development of the curriculum for the Dartmouth Institute scheduled to begin in the summer, 1972. The month-long Institute will enable business leaders and professional people to return periodically on a sabbatical basis to replenish their intellectual reserves and gain fresh perspective on their changing world. Harry has been a very active English professor at Dartmouth for many years, has taught at Alumni College and was dean of its faculty for three years. He is an authority on Edward Gibbon, the English historian, has written several books, and has represented the Dartmouth faculty on the Alumni Council for four years. Many of us are willing to bet that Harry will lead an exciting program of continuing education for the Dartmouth community.
It is with sadness that we report the deaths of Chester W. Kay and Dr.Martin S. Kleckner Jr. Chet's death was on December 8, 1970 and his obituary will be carried in a future issue of "Alumni Magazine." Martin died on June 1, 1971 at his home in Decatur, Illinois. His obituary appears in this issue. The Class of 1942 extends heartfelt sympathy to the families of our deceased classmates.
