1925
At the Alumni Council meeting in January Frank Kennedy was given an Alumni Award, details of which probably will have appeared in the February issue of this Magazine. Besides Frank's family, 1925 was represented by the Talbots, McKennans, Haffenreffers, Leavitts, Braces and Ford Whelden. Frank received a standing ovation from the entire group.
The Council also passed a resolution congratulating 1925 for being the first class to give over one million dollars to the Alumni Fund.
Dot and Larry Leavitt have given a room in the new Tuck School building in memory of Dot's father, E.K. Hall, who taught at Tuck following his retirement from business. Plans are not yet complete but it will probably be a conference room.
Cliff Fitzgerald, founder and chairman of the Dancer-Fitzgerald-Sample advertising agency, has been honored by the establishment by the firm of a Tuck Library Book Fund in his name. It will make possible additions to the Tuck Library collection over the next five years and is created on the occasion of Cliff's 30th anniversary with the firm.
Those who attended the 45th reunion will remember Bud Lynch '72, one of the undergraduates who helped out at our headquarters. At the annual football dinner in January, Bud received two awards: the Manners Makyth Man Award presented to that member of the varsity football team who, in the judgment of his teammates, has best conducted himself to the advantage of the College and displayed good manners in the sense of William Wykeham's phrase "Manners Makyth Man"; and the Earl P. Hamilton Varsity Award presented to the senior football player who has displayed the sincere friendliness and sense of humor plus an appreciation of the outdoors that were the late Coach Hamilton's characteristics.
Julie Hewitt writes that she had a great trip last fall with a neighbor widow to Turkey and Greece. They traveled in a group of 27 sponsored by Alumni Flights Abroad and while they found pleasant companions there were no others with Dartmouth connections.
In a January postcard Les King reports that he and fellow Kennebunkport resident Lionel Mosher headed south together, with Lionel stopping at Myrtle Beach and the Kings going on to Santa Rosa Beach, Fla.
Bob Sharp says he visited Hanover last fall for the first time in 13 years and visited a grand-nephew who is a senior at the College.
Bunny Rogers of Andover, Mass., is president of a joint corporation formed by the Bon Secours and Lawrence Hospitals to administer a building fund and was one of the leading speakers at the dedication last fall of a new cobalt therapy unit. A fund-raising campaign in the greater Lawrence area provided more than three million dollars.
Bud Petrequin expresses regret at missing every football game last fall. The Petrequins still make Cleveland their headquarters and legal residence but spend about half the year at their home in Aspen, Colo.
We are sorry to learn through a note from his wife that Judson Large has been in ill health for almost five years. His address is 5555 Sheridan Road, Chicago, Ill. 60640.
Whit Campbell is another Chicago classmate who has had a hard time physically in recent years. His mail address is 120 South LaSalle Street—60603.
When Ken Nugent and his wife started out last fall for their usual winter at Siesta Key, Fla., they took a short cut via New Mexico, Arizona and Texas. No doubt that will keep them contented in Florida until the end of April.
Jack Packard, after retiring in the middle of 1969, spent the summers of '69 and '70 on Cape Cod and last summer went to British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and California. He worked in California in '27 and '28 and had not been back since then. Needless to say, he reports the changes as unbelievable. The rest of the time he spends at home in Vero Beach, Fla., where he and his wife have spent all their winters since 1939.
