1925

While most of us have retired from our "career" activities, some are still working. Of those, the majority admit to not pushing quite so hard. And then there are some who officially retired and at a later date returned to work.

Chan Walker is one of those still working, but at a slower pace. He and Helen last year moved into a cooperative town house in Chevy Chase, Md. "where I don't have to cut the grass and where we can just close the front door and leave town." They did just that last year for a week in Bali and a week on Heron Island (Great Barrier Reef). This winter's schedule called for a trip to Florida.

Lyn White is one of those who returned to work going back to the Bryant and Stratton School in Boston which he had headed for many years.

And Hal White (no relative, as they say in the sports pages) returned to the world of entertaining at Dunfey's Tavern in the Sheraton Tobacco Valley motor inn in Windsor, Conn.

Bob and Catherine Weinig left Naples, Fla., last summer for a lengthy stay at the Spalding Inn Club in Whitefield, N.H., and took in both the Holy Cross and Princeton games in the fall.

Slim Baumann wrote last fall that he planned to start retiring January 1, one week before birthday number 72. Slim lives in San Mateo, Calif., and his program was to play golf and fish to his heart's content.

Dutch Schrodel planned on Hillsborough Beach, Fla.; instead of Gladwyne, Pa., from January until this month. He was looking forward to a repeat get-together with classmates in that area.

Ralph Tucker - known to many as "Tuck"—after getting home to Tryon, N.C., after his New England trip last fall wrote Treasurer Lane Goss complimenting him on the class financial report and added the following news paragraphs:

"Dick and Anita Heydt, and Charlie and FranDodd are getting into the swing of things here in Tryon ... Dick goes back to Toledo for about a week each month for the bank meeting but I see him frequently at the golf club and we have an occasional game together. ... Charlie I see around town and we get together with them for a bridge game now and then.

"The only other classmates I have heard from in recent months are Dick Holden and ChuckMacMillan. Dick is finally semi-retired and Chuck has been officially retired for several years but has a one-man business that occupies his time. Dick and Margaret were in Eire last spring and Chuck and Sally were there this fall. Ruth and I took the Alumni Flights Abroad trip to East Africa this summer. Tremendous! We spent about a week in Uganda and the same amount of time in Tanzania not too long before the stupid fracas started."

Mark Emerson also wrote a letter this winter that is worth quoting: "Had a wonderful chance to renew my D.O.C. days in the White Mountains last summer. Was 'hut naturalist' for a couple of weeks at Lake of the Clouds and Madison huts of the Appalachian Mountain Club. Gave talks and led walks to show hikers the flowers and plants that grow above treeline on the Presidential Range. It was a glorious chance to renew acquaintance with the alpine flora I got to love as a hutman at Moosilauke Summit Camp the summer of '23." Mark has one of the more picturesque addresses among our classmates—Evans Road at Sumneytown Pike, Gwynedd Valley, Pa.

Bob Sharp has a pretty good one too—Cap-tain's Walk, North Chatham, Mass. Bob reports life is quiet there; it sounds pleasant.
