1970
Arriving at the base of a chairlift in Breckenridge, Colo., a couple of weeks ago, whom should I discover about to administer a seat to my grateful posterière but William Cecil Dabney III. Dab is just out of the Navy and heading back to Hanover in June, there to provide his classmates with a nice window on coeducation and year-round operation. In the meantime, I found his chairside manner and his après-skiing flawless.
Bill and Wendy Sewall send the following news from their digs near the Bow exit on I-89 (near that Orwellian Mobile Station): "We are proud to announce the birth of Rebecca Butler Sewall on September 1, 1971. She's really a delight to have with us here in Concord, where Bill is teaching 6th grade at Rumford Elementary School. Although we are no longer the Resident Directors at the ABC house, we are on the Board of Directors working with the kids on the College Advisory and Student Review committees as well as being a host family.
"Bill hopes to start working on his Master's toward an elementary school principalship this summer (i.e. for five summers) in Boston, hopefully at B. U., so we'll be in Scituate, Mass.
"Bob Whitcomb has been to visit when he has gotten time off from Columbia School of Journalism where he's getting his Master's. He hopes to return to the HeraldTraveler staff in Boston this summer."
Back in the Bay Area, Jim Brady reports that T. J. Rodgers has just completed his physics Ph.D. orals at Stanford, and lives with wife Kathleen (Marquette '70) in Palo Alto. Jim himself is finishing a Master's in Criminology at Berkeley. "I plan to leave school for a few months next winter in order to cut a bit of sugar cane for Fidel. After graduation from Dartmouth in March of 1971, I worked for a time in Massachusetts prisons evaluating and designing parole programs. I plan to return to Boston to continue developing alternatives to our American system of criminal injustice, after I finish my doctorate here sometime in 1973."
Here is a capsule report from LarryGotlieb, who along with Charlie Johnson is "learning the art of setting up tax shelters for all those Dartmouth "70's in Business School" at Harvard Law. (As Larry says, some of this news may be dated or may have been published before, but I quite maliciously don't keep such records):
Larry Silverstein and Lee Badger are second-year Harvard Law too. They live in an apartment sandwiched between two all-girl exotic Lesley College dorms.
Tack Burbank and Windy Loopesko are first-year law students at Harvard—both back from Army reserve duty.
Dave Strohm and Frany Bax are second-year at the Graduate School of Government there. Dave lives with RoyCarlson in an apartment on Beacon Hill. Roy is making films at B. U. and is regularly in Harvard Square—presumably looking for starlets and story lines.
John Walsh was married at Dartmouth over Thanksgiving by Reverend Rahmeier in Rollins Chapel. His bride is the former Laura Lynn (Smith '71) who was a coed at Dartmouth during our last year. A true women's libber, John had Laura drive on their honeymoon, and I (Larry, that is) followed behind on I-89 to make sure their antique Oldsmobile didn't collapse.
We will continue with the Gotlieb File next month, including more quaint little down-home homilies and featuring a stunning forecast of Chuck Thegze's career—stay tuned.
Oh, please note new address. I moved out here with every expectation of having to perform alternative service for you- know-who, though now it appears they ain't interested. But I'm well on my way to becoming an "eco-flack" for a couple of conservation - environmental - commie - pinko - type organizations which are conveniently non-profit. I'll probably stick with it through the summer and then who knows —around the world would be nice. Won't that raise hell in Crosby Hall!
