1965

The holiday mailbag was not as newsy in '73 as has been the case at previous Christmases, but we did manage to glean a few tidbits.

Tom Morton broke a six year silence to say that he is alive and very well on the West Coast. He is a senior scientist for Lockheed in Palo Alto and has the responsibility of directing several research programs in metallurgy and fracture mechanics. Tom is remarried and his new family now numbers seven children - that moves him to the head of our class, for sure.

Mark Laster, who poses by day as a computer-programmer at NYU Medical Center, is gaining fame as a photographer. During the fall three exhibits, one in his hometown of Scranton, Pa., and two in NYC, featured Mark's photography. His work has been shown at the Midtown Gallery and the Discovery Gallery in New York.

The Denver suburb of Lakewood is home-sweet-home for Bob and Barb Busch, who added a second child, second son to the clan in mid-September. Buscher says that Jeffrey Wayne "is a healthy lad and a real joy - except - he thinks he is an owl and keeps rather unusual hours." Bob continues to toil successfully with the law firm of Alperstein & Plant.

Birger Benson has just celebrated his first anniversary as the owner of North American Alloys & Synthetics, Ltd., located in Williston, Vt.

Another '65 son arrived on October 30 when Mike and Ellen Bettman welcomed #3 child. Mike is in residency in radiology at Boston's Beth Israel Hospital. He reports that Steve Banta is an editor of earth science textbooks for Prentice-Hall and a Ph.D. candidate at Columbia.

Dan and Carmen Corbett have settled down (at least temporarily) in Lewiston, Me., after two years of travel in Africa and Asia. Half of their time abroad was spent in Hong Kong where they each taught.

The Most Coveted '65 for February is Bob Frohboese, a fulltime ski instructor at Alta. Eat your hearts out!
