Jere Annis is managing partner of Watson Clinic, Lakeland, Fla., and a member of the board of Trustees of the American Medical Association.
Ray Bernhardt: "For the past five years I've been teaching at Rochester Institute of Technology. I received my Ph.D. in Business Administration in 1969, 37 years after graduation from Harvard Business School. I drive from Buffalo for Monday-Wednesday classes, and while in Rochester stay at the University Club. Would be glad to see any member of the Class at any time.
Kel Clow: "Living comfortably in frequently sunny California. I'm now working with Synoptic Systems Corporation, a management consultant firm specializing in computer software applications. Daughter Barbara is a junior at University of San Francisco. Son Donald is graduating from high school and headed for University of Colorado. After they both complete college, I'll really retire!"
Bill Fenton: "For the record I am still going to work and Olive is still running the house. I have no immediate plans for retirement, since I enjoy my graduate students and I shall attend seminars as long as they need me." MiltFleischman: "Still enjoy my work (estate tax attorney) and plan to work until I have to retire at age 70. Edith is a travel agent and as a result we are taking lots of trips. Bert Gross: "My wife is associate professor in the School of Nursing at the University of Hawaii. Young son (14) attends Ioiani and older son is at the University. Hobbies, chess, golf, cooking and fine wine. Am president of the Honolulu chapter of 'Les Amis du Vin.' Have lived an enjoyable life and love Hawaii."
Jim Dunlap: "Far from being retired, and besides running my own business, a group of us recently bought the Lancaster Stockyards, which is the largest livestock market on the Eastern Seaboard." Don Cole: I am still with Lamborn & Co. as vice president and general manager. Will be.65 in a few days but do not intend to retire yet as I feel fine and enjoy the sugar business. ChuckJacobs: "Celebrating our 45th in August. Son Ronald is a vice president of Dean Witter & Company, has 3 children. Daughter Babs Vaught has two children. I still play tennis (of sorts) and both of us are very active traveling much of the year preparing our three (four in '74) annual Travel Digests which have become the 'bibles' of their areas (Mexico, South America, South Pacific and Far East) for the travel trade. With all our traveling, we rarely are in the East, have never returned to Hanover but enjoy the Ojai get-together with classmates out here."
Hugh Johnson: "I'll never retire officially - as long as we can get six months in Sea Island." Harold Kaplan: "Looks like I have to stay active for a while. I still have an extensive research program going on here (Southern Illinois University), plus consulting in the field of laboratory animal medicine." George Kearney: "Still Operating Old Grey Barn (casual clothes for ladies and their gentlemen) on Route 202 in Morristown. Camp in Maine for July."
Chuck Kimball, retired from IBM: "Janet is teaching.this academic year at Pahlavi University, Shiraz, Iran, on leave from Kent State University, and I am a 'house husband' but have the great help of our 'cookboy' Ahmed who does everything and well. Wonderful climate, live in a beautiful location, spent two weeks in Egypt and Lebanon between semesters and will be in Istanbul and Athens for two weeks during the Iranian New Year celebration (Noh Rooz). Expect to go to Alumni College on way back home which we will be glad to get to after 12 months of being away. The bazaar is much fun here but the Persian carpets available are too tempting and we have bought too many, fortunately with dollars before the devaluation. We like the old ones, especially the tribal ones that were made by nomads."
Jess Lichter: "Continue to run A. J. Siris. Barbara remains the best travel agent in Mexico. Eldest daughter Kathy studying interior decorating in New York. Second daughter Susan teaching at local Montessori School after two years in Paris with UNESCO. Daughter Elizabeth, Liceo Franco-Mexicano. John March: "My business is fabricating steel cylinders for the liquid petroleum gas business. Flavia is organist and choir director for the Cypress United Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale."
Dick Newman: "Who's retired? Still playing some volley ball and doing my light plane flying. In fact, Meredith and I are planning a flying trip around the western National Parks this summer. Now have five grandchildren — no pilots yet. ArtParker: "Retired from Western Electric Company. For the immediate future, our plans are to remain in our home and travel stateside with a few trips to Glenrothes, Scotland, where our son resides. I expect to be active in Montvale with my recent appointment to the Board of Health. My hobbies of photography and art round out the picture.
Chuck Perry: "If Rocky has to keep on working to make it, how can anyone quit? My boys Bob and Bill are in high school — they can't support me for at least five more years — so I'll have to wait." Shelly Stark: "I am still a free-lance writer. Currently I'm at work on my second feature for Disney. It's a lovely place to work. Right now however, I'm not, because writers are on strike. I haven't carried a picket sign since 1952. I understand that Collie Young has been on the picket line too. At which studio my informant saith not. Nor whether Collie wore his class "blazer."
Pat Weaver: "We are at the beach house when my TV and movie projections keep me there. Otherwise in Palm Springs, Sun Valley, or Beaulieu-sur-mere where we have little pads. Our daughter Sigourney is a Yaleman, School of Drama; son Trajan a senior at BYU and father of our first grandchild Wynelle. My '72 clients were Rheem Manufacturing (director), ABC, Rand Corporation, City Investing, Elizabeth Taylor Burton, Wells Rich Greene, — enough. Also am first vice president of Muscular Dystrophy. Still skiing, surfing, sailing, and now golfing (ugh!). Writing, lecturing, considering offers of special lecturing at a university on radio, TV and communications."
I regret having to end on a sad note, but word has just been received of the death of Joseph Epstein April 2. The sympathy of the Class goes out to Anita and his family.
