1945
The fall football weekend was a good one. The Executive Committee meeting didn't solve any national or international problems but the important conclusions were that the Class 1945 was alive and well, and that plans for the 30th Reunion in 1975 were well underway, The dates to mark in green on your calendar are June 9-10-11, 1975.
The fellowship during the weekend was excellent as the group took over Alumni Hall in Hopkins Center on Friday night, the Tom Dent cabin before the Yale game, and the Coolidge Hotel dining room on Saturday night.
Present for the festivities were Molly and John White, Phyllis and Rex Felton, Mary and Stan Newton, Pat and Ted Smith, Shirley and Joe Michael, Marge and" Bob Paulson, Marylee and John Osborn, Howie Germain. Pat and Al Ungar, Joan and Moose Rowan, Elaine and Jim Andrew, Jane and Moe Frye, Ruth and John Leggat, Connie and Spence Johnson, Doris and Ed Pirie.
And Gina and Griff Strasenburgh. Dora and Frank Aldrich, Jane and Tom Yates, Vesta and Vic Smith, Edie and Geof Maclay. Jean and Frank Hutchins, Allon and Shorty Pierce, Ginny and Harry Hampton, Laura and Paul Caravatt, Alice and Howie Sawyer, Susie an Sherm Crough, Anita and Ash Van Duzerer Nancy and Pete Beck, Rosalie and Don Cutter. Jean and Frank Edmands, Barbara and Ted White, Larry and Fred Berthold, Ann and Irv Graves, Wiley McMinn, John Reed, and Rickie and Don Cole.
The annual call for dues is out again. The Class really needs that seemingly small pittance of $10, out of which it pays for YOUR Alumni Magazine, maintains the '45 Memorial Fund which pays for books and study materials for needy students, and keeps the organization alive so that college and class loyalty can survive the passage of all these years. How about doing your share!?!
