1965
Those of you who read the October AlumniMagazine closely know that Jim Stanbery is an associate professor of political science at Los Angeles Harbor College. He's also a candidate for treasurer of the state of California in 1978. His new book, The California 2000 Campaign:The Populist Movement With A Meaning ForAll America, is reviewed on page 13 of the October Magazine. Interesting reading. It appears that the next four years will be busy ones for Jim.
More news from George Rutler, who was surprised to see his name in the October '65 column. His pastorate in Rosemont, Pa., includes a good deal of campus ministering at Bryn Mawr and Haverford colleges. He's also done the talk show circuit in Philly and New York, and spent ten days this fall in the Holy Land and Rome.
Our Tenth Reunion committee will hold its third meeting the middle of this month. The weekend of June 13-15, 1975, is shaping up well for '65 festivities in Hanover, but your ideas and suggestions are still very welcome. Communicate them to Reunion Chairman RichBeams (5 Dean St., Springfield, Vt. 05156).
The Dartmouth-Harvard spectacle this fall took place in Hanover, as many of you know and a large '65 contingent was on hand to enjoy the variety of social events which usually surround the game (we couldn't enjoy the 15.17 score):
Fred Hill is still in radio, but is back in the North Country, having added a Vermont station to his airwave empire.
Steve Waterhouse is now with Avon Products in New York City. (I knew Procter & Gamble would tire of paying him while he ran 65's Alumni Fund effort every year). Steve has turned over the class agent job to Jock Hosmer and Rex Roberts while he functions this year as the chairman of a special reunion gift task force. Don't worry, you'll be hearing more from all of them.
The Bob McConnaugheys and the Mike Lewises were among 44 Big Greeners who made the trek from Washington, D.C., to Hanover for the Harvard game via Amtrak's finest. Their itinerary was mind-boggling: it boiled down to consecutive allnighters on the rails with a morning nap at the Hotel Coolidge, the game and several Hanover social events sandwiched in on Saturday. It's good to know they haven't lost their zest for road trips. Incidentally, Bob labors for the international law firm of Baker and McKenzie, while Mike is a third year law student at Georgetown.
Charlie Strauss is still with Playtex (I'm tempted to say that he's "into girdles") in New York City. Actually he's with their infant products division, but is considering a shift to their international operation which would involve a move to Paris.
Class President Pete Frederick continues to toil for E. I. duPont Co. (nylon division), lives in Hockessin, Del., has sired three large children (Jennifer 5, Holly 3, Jack 1) and has refinished a super basement replete with Dartmouth bric-a-brac. What more can you ask of a guy?
One final item: Palmer C. D. Wooflin called recently to express his dismay at Jake's gridiron forces rendering his 1974 prediction obsolete by the midway point of the season. But Palmer was philosophical about the autumn's dire events, saying that spoiled Dartmouth alums ought to be able to tolerate a losing season every six or seven years "think of the poor Columbia folks." He added that Big Green hockey fortunes will continue to rise this winter and the new regime in basketball is off to an impressive start. We hope you're right this time, Woogie!
Linda joins me in best wishes for the holidays to you and your families. Peace and good fortune in the new year!
