1946
As these notes are being written, Hanover weather has descended upon the New York City area; your secretary wishes that the drivers who clutter the 12 miles of highway between home and railroad station had a little more experience in travelling through snow.
Jud Hannigan has been elected president of International Paper Company, which comes as no surprise to all of us who have known Jud over all these years. "All these years," Jud, now means approximately 32; Jud was the first - yes, very first classmate whom your secretary met on the college green at the commencement of the summer session in 1942.
From Reg and Nancy Pierce comes the news that Mark Struhsacker, son of Phil and Marge, did an outstanding job as a ski instructor at Pierce's during the recent Christmas ski school. Mark is also the coach of the boys' ski team at Lebanon High School. Phil and Marge are back living at Franconia, where they have built a home in the hills; Phil is with the trust division of the Littleton National Bank.
Any of you travelling on Route 7 near Burlington, Vt., should plan on spending the night at Darling Kelly's Motel, now operated by Al and Peg Lilly, who have moved to that area after many years in the New York orbit. They assure one and all that Dartmouth people are particularly welcome at all hours.
From way out in Wayzata, Minn., comes the word from John McClintock that, since returning to that part of the country, he and Edie have become reacquainted with classmates, Dick Donovan, Bob White and Bud Wingate; incidentally, Bud's son is a freshman at Dartmouth. John and Edie came east for the Penn game last fall, for their own son Lon is also a member of the Class of '77. If recollection serves me, John won the prize at our Tenth Reunion for the one who travelled furthest to participate in those famous festivities.
The reports of 46's whose offspring are now in Hanover continue to pour in. Among the latest freshmen identified as such are Ross Arthurs, son of our Dr. Glenn Arthurs of Niagara Falls, and Pat Corren, daughter of our Bob Corren, of Closter, N.J.
Ashley "(Bill) Burner reports from Wilton, Conn., that "nobody home now but us old folks - and we kind of like it for a change!" The reason for peace and quiet chez Burner is that oldest daughter Lyn has graduated from Allegheny College and is working as an environmental scientist in Oswego, New York; next daughter Leslie was married in September; and youngest daughter Janie is a freshman at Miami of Ohio.
The first of this year found Jud Hannigan at the top of International Paper, having been elected company president effective on that date, the culmination of a series of promotions since he joined the company in 1948. He started with IP's Hundson River mill, left to serve as a Marine Corps captain during the Korean War, and was named Hudson River manager in 1961. Twin sons Michael and Timothy are members of the Class of '71.
Rick Shambroom has recently formed his own promotion/merchandising/consulting company, under the inexplicable name of Rick Shambroom Associates, Inc. He is currently working with American Airlines, Clairol, Pepsico, Philip Morris and several other blue chips; not bad for starters, Rick.
Al Schlosser checks in from 500 East Claymont Drive, Ballwin, Mo., with the welcome news that he has just been appointed vice president and director of marketing for Vestal Laboratories; division of Chemed Corporation. Al, we all hope you are planning to make the trek from the Midwest to be in Hanover Monday through Wednesday, June 9, 10 and 11, 1975 for the GTHES (Greatest Thirtieth Hanover's Ever Seen). All other readers of this column, take note and mark your calendars likewise.
That's it for the month; keep those cards 'n' letters rollin' in.
Old Number '47 will most likely soon behauling passengers on the Conway (N.H.)Scenic RR, owner Dwight Smith '47 says.
