1933

It's not too late to contact Carl Rug-en regarding the '33 reunion for the Princeton game. His address is 117A Old Nassau Road, Jamesburg, N. J. 08831 and his phone number is 609-655-3568. Carl has put a lot of effort into this party, so get in touch with him right away.

Lee Sanborn writes from Joppa, Md.: "Retired May 12, 1971 after 37 years in education in western New York—the last 11 as superintendent of New York State School for the Blind in Batavia. Agnes and I have purchased a townehouse in a new development here in Maryland. Back yard slopes down to our bulkhead on a canal which empties into Chesapeake Bay via Gunpowder River. Youngest daughter and husband live but a mile away. Middle daughter and husband now on Squam Lake, N. H. and also weekend there from Boston. Am doing some part-time educa- tional consulting work."

I received a wonderful letter from HankMcKee of Hudson, Ohio. He and Virginia have four grandchildren whom they occa- sionally care for but they still find time for golf and raising roses. "We get back to Hanover at least once a year but missed the last 5-year reunion. Both my wife and I are concerned about the coed outlook for Dartmouth but enough study is being done so that facts should be available on which to make a good decision. There is one thing for sure, Dartmouth as it has been, has had something distinctive to offer that created a very loyal family and one which never forgot the opportunities extended on the campus and the responsibilities that came with them. If this tradition can be maintained, I see nothing basically wrong with the coeducational program but I must admit I certainly have my doubts.

"We think the move toward the more full use of buildings and staff through a quarter system is in the right direction. We have had an opportunity to meet and talk with Dr. Kemeny and many of the other faculty members and we have been very pleased with what we have seen for the most part. I don't believe a better choice in these difficult times could have been made than the choice of Dr. Kemeny as President.

"We were in Rochester, New York last weekend and stopped to see Jack Hunley and his wife in Hamburg, N. Y. on the way home. He gave us news of Archie Lade whose name I see often in the newsletters. Jack says that he has bought a lot on Cape Cod and is getting ready for his retirement. We see Bill Schlesinger very occasionally. All of us in the Cleveland area are most proud of his son's career at Dartmouth. Haven't seen Moatz or Bates for several years. I see Bill Quinn from Canton quite often because we are both active in the new Dartmouth Club of Eastern Ohio which includes Canton, Akron and Hudson.

"I have moved from Marketing Research at General Tire to the Investor Relations area. I find it fascinating, complicated and at times frustrating. Have had my stints as Village Councilman, Church Trustee, Boy Scout Leader and so forth. No world travels but do run into a Dartmouth man occasionally in out of the way places. The last was Day Krolik. He and his very charming wife were at the Tortuga Club on Grand Cayman Island when we were there in May. All of us are snorkel fans."

Thanks to the hard work of WesBeattie, our class finally exceeded its Alumni Fund quota , and gave $51,813. Congratulations are also in order for Wes and Jan upon acquiring a new son. Their daughter Susan Elizabeth was married to Thomas Wilfred Pugh '71 on September 12.

Bill Jones from Exeter, N. H. sent along this news: "Just returned from a sabbatical year abroad, mostly in Paris, where I completed another revision of my modest contribution to Voltairian scholarship, a critical edition of L'Ingenu, for publication over there. I enjoyed seeing much of the rest of France (it's nonsense to say that Americans are not well received there), parts of Spain, Italy, Switzerland and Ireland.

Your June column informs me that my opponent for the presidency of the American Association of Teachers of French is Bill Alden, a coincidence which must astound Prof. Ramon Guthrie, if he has caught wind of it. Bill and I were privileged to be the only seniors to trek over to Norwich in 1932-1933 for regular sessions with Ramon, who, I am sure, had a good deal to do with our choice of profession.

While I have been wholly caught up in teaching in what is surely the best secondary school (Phillips Exeter Academy) in the country. Bill has gone on to ever higher posts and has made a fine name in our field. I sympathize with his reluctance to curtail his year off in France to fill the job of president of the AATF, but on the other hand, I know that he would fill it very well." (I assume from this that Bill Jones defeated Bill Alden for the presidency.)

News Flashes—Bob (T.) and ShirleyCox are back in Pasadena after serving with the Peace Corps in Morocco. Gordon Hull is president of Hull Associates in Concord, Mass. A lead article in the Wall Street Journal carried these headlines: "The Road to the Top, Jim McFarland Takes The Traditional Path, A Long, Arduous Climb." The Washington Report of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States recently contained an article stating Ken Spang's views on President Nixon's 10% tax on imports. Ken is chairman of the National Chamber's international Committee and a member of the Board of Directors. Con gratulations to all!!

The class is continuing its Baker Library book memorial project. Notes of appreciation have recently been received from Mrs James Woods and Mrs. John Donovan.

If you felt old last year when you founj that Fritz Meyer was the only classmate with a son in the freshman class, I'm sorry This year we have no one!!!
