1943

Late again with the Class notes! - but what else can you expect when inauguration was upon us at the seat of all wisdom and knowledge? We are sorry to report that Jim Dewey died of a heart attack in Winnetka on November 22, 1972. Details will follow in the obituary section in a later issue. The sympathy of the Class is extended to his wife and five children who reside at 654 Cherry Street, Winnetka, III. 60093.

So far as other news is concerned, starting up in the cold country, Ed and Dottie Lider have just finished a house at Eastman, N.H., about halfway between Hanover and New London. Eddie's son Bob was here in my office last week and advised that his parents are all over the place on crosscountry skis. We understand that "popular" BobClarke also has a place at Eastman which he and Bunny get up to from Keene. Bob has been cochairman of a hospital building fund drive in Keene which was so successful that their goal of $1.5 million was exceeded by a cool million.

Remaining in "God's country," ChurchLeonard writes that he and Dorothy are now ensconced on Brook Road in Hanover. Church says they have a double garage attached to the house by a breezeway which was once converted into a large family or recreation room. Church refers to this as the "43 room" and has offered his place as '43 headquarters for football games with "plenty of room to park on the lawn for tailgate parties, plus toilet facilities (indoors) and a place to change clothes if necessary." A very generous offer!

The way your secretary computes it, with Church Leonard, Paul Young, John Goode and Bob Kerwin all in Hanover, Tony Farrell across the river in Norwich, the Liders and Clarkes 20 miles south in Eastman, and the Grays 30 miles south in Acworth, we've got a '43 cell underway and in another five years should take the whole place over.

Individual items which may or may not be news: Jeremy Blanchet is with the office of the president. State University of New York at Stoneybrook; Dave McLane is still in the teaching profession but now with the Rumson County Day School, Rumson, N.J.; Bailey Walton and wife Lyell missed the Reunion but got to Hanover for a night last year when on a 25th wedding anniversary break; Peter Johnson (Lt. Col. Norman P.) now in Broxville, N.Y., appears to be active in church and community affairs; Don Kersting who holes up at 61 Broadway, New York City, has a son at Dartmouth and started another son at Trintiy this past fall; "Farmer" Mead, with H. A. Hovey Company in Cambridge, Mass., having missed only the 30th Reunion, is looking forward to the 35th; Jerry Souers is still in the Los Angeles area with Mattel; and, as a final one, BodieMosenthal has two boys in Dartmouth, a girl in college in Wooster, Ohio, and a boy who just got a Ph.D. at Ohio State - nothing like four in college at one time!
