A note received from Donna Jean Schmidt just surfaced from the bottom of my mail bag and says, "Not too many weeks ago I had a surprise party for Dick to celebrate his becoming a partner in the Columbus firm of Mayer, Tingley, Hurd & Emmens. While he was at the Greenbriar drawing up the new partnership agreement, I was running around town gathering food and calling his best friends for the big nite. Included among those who were here were Greg Stark who entered our home with three cameras around his neck and a nine-month-old collie on chain, with wife Nita and son Chris tagging along behind. Greg made the night for Dick's party. It was great to see them again." Thank you, Donna lean, everything that's fit we print—it just takes a while sometimes.
It's a small world department: KarlHoltzschue and I stumbled into each other over the telephone recently, trying to solve a mutual problem. He brought me up to date, saying that after Dartmouth he spent time in the Navy on a destroyer, then earned a law degree from Columbia. Karl is currently specializing in real estate law with Webster, Sheffield, Fleischmann, Hitchcock & Brookfield, a New York City law firm. From time to time, I receive press releases that have appeared in professional journals or trade magazines, but being out of context, they are sometimes incomplete. Such is the case with a release stating that Shelly London has been appointed NHFA Director of National Affairs and will direct the greatly expanded activities of the Association's Washington office. (The missing link here is the identity of NHFA—can anyone help?) In any case, he earned his law degree from the University of Connecticut and prior to entering private practice, served on the General Counsel's staff of the U. S. Tariff Commission. Also a graduate of Tuck School, Shelly is a member of the Connecticut and D.C. bars.
