Welcome aboard, '73 landlubbers -
I am most happy to announce that BruceStuart, the California kid, has become the first person to respond to my Missing Man of the Month appeal and, thus, due to my involvement in the publishing fielcf, will gratuitously receive a copy of one of our most recent publications, Sex and Human Life by Eric Pengelley. I will plan on hearing from Bruce soon...in the mean- time, congratulations! Bruce passes a word or two along to you prospective law hounds: "Topics are generally interesting, but classes can be dull. Many students are human zeros who would make the worst '02 room addict look like a flaming rager." He also tells me that Bob Kerwin, alias the pseudo squash scoundrel, is alive and well and living in Switzerland, Clearing ski trails. I hope that's not all he's clearing away!
am also pleased to announce that Steve Hallman and Chris Pratt have decided to follow in my footsteps. Navy Ensign Hallman has recently completed Environmental Indoctrination School at Pensacola, Fla., and plans to make use of his engineering and land and sea survival as a naval aviator. How comforting a thought, should I ever become stranded at sea! Meanwhile Chris is actively involved in the Navy as well. But it seems he manages to visit his old stomping grounds every now and then, Yet rumor has it that he's finding it increasingly Difficult to relive the past... the suds seem to be getting him down
The biggest news item of the month, though, rest in the words of my former companion and oarsman Brad Little: "It all started Saturday, February 16." Seems as though a certain Green grad (whose name shall become evident - merely by the gang he hangs around with) walked the plank with a young, virtuous damsel in distress. Sue English, among such lubricated notables as the Cincinnati med-man Russ "Skinny" Kelley and wife Pat, Mark Harty, Bruce Ling, and Pete Smith (who, as is now fact, himself plans to wed Martha Does in September). Pete tells me it might be some time before Russ once again attempts to solidify any friendship he might have had between himself and Mike Neary and Dave "Jet" Nichols.
They tell me that Saul Levy, the "Pretzel King." can be seen every now and then in Hanover when he .can both earn enough money to transport himself from Vermont to New Hampshire, and find time to leave the job at Sugarbush.
Those kids at the Hinsdale (Ill.) Junior High School who are seeking guts will be well-warned to avoid the classes of Martin Gabriel, who has for a tour of duty as a social studies instructor.
Hanover night life continues to swing thanks to the efforts of Rick Carvolth, part-owner of Eleazar's, a local water-hole for the Big Green animals. Rick will be taking a step down in life when he hangs up his bar-tending duties for the scapels, stethoscopes, and bed pans of a future doc. Those interested in Rick's share of Eleazar's can seriously discuss it over a scotch and soda.
Jim Sullivan continues to astound the big shots, wizards, and assorted hot dogs of the New York financial world, while his wife Mari plans a teaching career. How did a nice girl like that end up with a clown like Sully?
As if his time was not already filled, our man Sullivan has taken on the task of coordinating the '73 Alumni Fund drive. It is hard for most of us at this stage of our lives to realize how much we owe to the 'ole School. With the energy crisis and subsequent high heating costs as well as rising inflation facing them, the Trustees have been confronted with a dilemma that has forced them to turn to the alumni - us - for more support. In this year, our first as alums, our class' reputa- tion will be set. While it would be nice to have a reputation as a class of big givers, it will be much more important to have a reputation as a class that has a high level of PARTICIPATION in the Fund.
Pete Smith will be forwarding a newsletter and questionnaire so that we can keep tabs on one another. Please be sure to respond as quickly as possible.
Once again that's all for news that's fit to print. Keep those salty letters coming in every now and then. Down bucket . . .
