1960

In the true spirit of Spring cleaning, I've been going through my files at home in an attempt to restore some semblance of order to the chaos that once was a desk. It's amazing how much junk one can collect over a period of a year. Unfortunately, I uncovered quite a number of old news articles that up to now have not found their Way into this column. My apologies in advance to the subjects of those articles.

Here is one dated last July. Dr. ThomasLanier Jr. of Newport News, Va., has completed his residency training in general surgery at the Medical University of South Carolina, and is now at the Lahey Clinic in Boston. After Dartmouth, Tom received his doctor of medicine degree from the University of Virginia, interned at Hartford Hospital, and completed three years of his general surgery residency at Emory University and affiliated hospitals in Atlanta. Tom also served with the Army in South Vietnam prior to his stint in Charleston.

Last August, Bruce Ducker was elected vice president of legal affairs and secretary of Great Western Cities, the wholly-owned community development subsidiary of Great Western United Corp. Bruce was formerly a partner in the Denver law firm of Seawell, Cohen and Seawell. Bruce received his masters and law degrees from Columbia and has taught English Literature at the University of Colorado.

Last June, the U. S. Senate confirmed President Nixon's nomination of PaulBoeker for promotion to Class 3 in the Foreign Service. Paul entered the Foreign Service in 1961, and has been stationed in Bogota, Dusseldorf and Washington. He is presently assigned to the Department of State as Director of the Office of Development Finance.

Paul and his wife, the former Margaret "Campbell, are the parents of two young children.

Kurt Buerger has been made Dean of Lakeland College, Sheboygan, Wis., after a five-month stint as acting dean. He has been assistant professor of physics since 1969, and heads the Math and Physics Department. Kurt went on from the College to earn his M.S. from the University of Florida and his Ph.D. from the University of Kentucky. His field of research has been experimental physics and he is the coauthor of several papers. He and wife Gisela are the parents of two boys and a girl and live at Route 1, Newton, Wis.

United States Trust Company of New York has promoted Roger Schaefer to assistant vice president. He is a senior account executive in the company's investment division. Roger went on to New York University School of Business Administration, was associated with Marine Midland Trust, and joined his present company in 1970. He and wife Carolyn, plus Jeffrey and Jennifer, live at 9 Kensington Rd., Basking Ridge, N. J.

Dr. Harold E. Harris Jr., has joined a Dr. Halton in the practice of ear, nose and throat medicine on a full-time basis. Their office is located in Holyoke, Mass. Harold graduated from Northwestern Med. School and did his internship at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation in Chicago. In 1969, he was assigned to Westover AFB where he was chief of the ear, nose and throat department. While there he began his work with Dr. Halton, and was able to join him on a full-time basis following his discharge with the rank of major last July. Harold was certified by the American Board of Octolaryngology in 1970 and is a member of the AMA. Harold and June are the parents of three daughters.

Charles Radigan has been named to the advisory board of Clarendon Trust Co. Charlie is a partner in the law firm of Adam, Porter, Radigan and Mays in Arlington, Va., and is very active in local civic affairs. He is a member of the Arlington Rotary and of the Arlington Jaycees, a Director of the Chamber of Commerce, and on the executive committee of the Red Cross Blood program. Professionally, Charlie is a member of several bar associations and is chairman of the Legal Aid Committee of the Arlington County Bar Assn. The Radigans have two children.

I now have more information about Dave Bond as both he and Elizabeth wrote to me just after last month's deadline. As you know, Dave was recently named Executive Director of the Canadian Consumer Council, and will hereafter be referred to as the "Nader of the North." Dave couldn't give me any info at the Princeton game—it was all very hush-hush then. During this past fall, the Bonds were living in Middletown, Conn., where Dave was enjoying a sabbatical leave at Wesleyan. Prior to then, Dave was an associate professor at the University of British Columbia. Elizabeth has stayed on at Wesleyan until June because of a commitment to their Department of Economics, after which she, Peter and Kristina will join Dave in Ottawa. Dave received his M.A. and Ph.D. from Yale and was a Woodrow Wilson Fellow, specializing in banking and money, international trade and finance, and economic history.

Dave doesn't feel the "Nader" label is accurate because Nader is concerned with today, whereas Dave is more concerned with the long-run consumer interests. Instead of beating institutions about the head in the interests of consumerism, Bond hopes to help direct consumers and producers towards common goals. Dave also hopes to keep his eyes open for potential recruits for Big Green hockey teams. And why not, it worked well for Cornell.

Lastly, it is my sad duty to report the death of Dorothy Hambleton, wife of Dave Hambleton, of New Haven on November 29, 1971. The Class extends its deepest sympathy to Dave and his family.
