He was the organization's executive secretary from 1945 until he retired from that post in October of last year, a stretch of 30 years.

A native of Worcester, Mass., Professor Carlson was graduated from Clark University in that city in 1929 and earned his master's degree there in 1931 and his doctorate in 1939. He was also awarded an honorary master of arts degree by Dartmouth in 1944.

He was a student assistant at Clark during his senior year in college and taught the geography of New England at summer school at Clark in 1955.

Professor Carlson was a consultant to the New England Region, National Resources Planning Board in 1942-43. During World War 11, like many of his faculty colleagues, he did double duty, coaching soccer, basketball and baseball for the college's recreation department, as well as teaching.

Another regional institution that bore the Carlson imprint- was Lebanon College, a school devoted to adult education, which he helped found in 1957. In that year it offered six courses and had an enrollment of 75 students. This year it is offering 40 courses and its enrollment has swelled to more than 500 persons. Professor Carlson continued as dean of Lebanon College until a few weeks prior to his death.

A Phi Delta Theta, he was a staunch member of the tennis team, and continued to play a strong game until well into his fifties.

Upon graduation, Al went to work for the Laclede Gas Company of St. Louis, and since he had a "college degree" was given a transit and assigned as a surveyor for the placement of underground gas mains.

As his degree hadn't really prepared him for this, he joined the Brown Shoe Company and served for many years as advertising director and member of the board of directors of this major shoe manufacturing firm.

During his tenure as advertising director, Al initiated the popular Buster Brown and Tige receptions held throughout the U.S. Under his direction Brown Shoe became the first network radio advertiser in the nation, sponsoring the weekly Phil Spitalny College Band broadcasts.

In 1925, he helped form KMOX radio station in St. Louis, and served as one of its directors for a number of years. He was a charter member of the St. Louis Shoe Manufacturers Association, and served as its treasurer from 1925 to 1944.

Al was a Mason 67 years, and received his 32nd Degree in 1911. He was a 65-year member of Tuscan Lodge No. 360 A.F. & A.M., and honored on June 5 1973, by the Lodge for his "fine record of Masonry since 1906."

WILLARD MERRILL GOODING passed away on January 28 in Greensboro, N.C., where he and Dorothy had planned to spend the winter months with their son John before returning to Rye, N.H. They had moved to Rye three years after his 1953 retirement.

Bill was born in Portland, Me., and joined our class from Portland High School, following in the footsteps of his brother Henry '10. He was a member of Gamma Delta Chi. He continued on to Thayer School and graduated there in 1912.

His business life started with a sanitary engineering firm in Boston and in 1913 he was sent to survey the Berlin Water Company (a private company) in Berlin, N.H. While there he was offered and accepted the position of superintendent of the Berlin Water Company and remained with them until he went to Hanover in 1920 and became superintendent of Buildings and Grounds.

For the next 33 years Bill supervised the tremendous expansion of the Dartmouth College plant which started in the 1920's. He supervised the construction of the oil storage tanks and a report he made to 'LEVENUP is pertinent at this moment - "Coal was the original fuel burned in the heating plant but changed to fuel oil in 1922. One year in the mid-20's I purchased a full year's supply at two cents per gallon delivered to our tanks, by trucks from Portsmouth, N.H. Now, in 1965 the price is seven cents per gallon delivered."

Among the buildings constructed under his supervision were Baker Library, Sanborn House, Carpenter Hall, Dick's House, the Amos Tuck School with its then four buildings, the D.O.C. House, and seven new dormitories. After World War 11, he oversaw the building of Sachem Village and Wigwam Circle..

In spite of being wrapped up in one of the most vital expansion periods in Dartmouth's history, Bill found it possible to give some time to the Hanover Community. For over 30 years he was a director of the Hanover Water Company, jointly owned by the Town and the College. He was also a member of the original Zoning Board which brought zoning into Hanover and for 18 years thereafter was a member of the Zoning Board of Adjustment. He was a member of building committee of the new White Church after the fire which destroyed the original church.

Gooding '45 of Greensboro, N.C., 10 grandchildren including George Detlefsen '67 and David Hyde '75, and two great-grandchildren.

Funeral services for Bill were held, fittingly, in the Rye Bethany Church he helped to rebuild and included the citation he received from the College upon his retirement.

WILLIAM DOTY MAYNARD, Professor Emeritus of Romance Languages at Dartmouth 1919-1958 died peacefully on Christmas Day 1974 at the local hospital in Tours, France. He was buried in the cemetery in Saint-Symphorien-Tours on January 2, 1975 - the ceremony was very brief and simple, a civil one by French law.

"Cap," a nickname of Delta Alpha days, entered Dartmouth from the Springfield, Mass. High School and was one of the outstanding scholars in our class. He became a member of Phi Beta Kappa and a Rufus Choate scholar, was in the highest of the three groups on the Honor List, won departmental honors in French and honorable mention in Greek, French and History and graduated magna cum laude.

He spent the next year at the University of Heidelberg in Germany and later got a Masters Degree at Harvard.

In 1949 he was awarded the Medaille d'Honneur des Affaires Etrangeres by the French Government.

In Paris in 1927 he married Rosa Benedite who died in Tours in 1966.

He traveled extensively in Europe and Mexico and for more than three decades taught French and in later years also Spanish at Dartmouth where for several years he was successor of "Louis-the-Great" Dow. Billy as he was called by his intimate friends was a coolheaded executive and a conscientious teacher who set high standards for his students. Fortunate indeed were those of Billy's students who, because they wanted to improve their spoken French, were invited frequently to the Maynard home on North Balch Street.

Like his Dartmouth father, Billy in his quiet way, was one of the most loyal Dartmouth men - and one of the most independent. After his retirement in 1958, he and Rosa lived in Paris until 1960 when they moved to Tours. He is survived by one son Leon Maynard of Paris and New York.

WILLIAM LAWRENCE WHEATON, 67, of Ridgewood Terrace, Barre, Vt., died January 10. He was born in Barre and prepared for college at Spalding High School there.

At college he joined Sigma Phi Epsilon. He was a really good baseball player (infield) and played on at least one undefeated high school team. He often bemoaned the fact that he arrived in Hanover at the same time as another pretty good ball player, Red Rolfe, and that both were vying for the same position. Bill kept his interest in the sport and played several years in the local industrial league. Many a time, he could be found giving useful tips to youngsters coming up in the game.

He went on from Dartmouth to earn his M.B.A. from Wharton School of Finance at the University of Pennsylvania and for many years he worked in sales. For the past 15 years he had been employed by the State of Vermont and was director of statistical coordination in the Department of Budget and Management.

The Dartmouth Indian, more recently the "Big Green," never had more ardent fans than he and Ethel. It will never be known how many miles they travelled together following the team. He had a great interest in the youth of his home area, persuaded several to choose Dartmouth, and over the years interviewed many who had applied for admission. Bill Wheaton was "Mr. Dartmouth" in Central Vermont, a fact recognized in a fine tribute paid to him in the Times-Argus by Art Ristau, director of the State Planning Office. He said, in part "Bill" was a talented economist and statistician with incredible insights into the state and its people which gave him a unique ability to translate numbers into human lives."

Bill and Ethel are survived by one daughter Mrs. Dwight (Cynthia) Hayward, two grandchildren, and an aunt.

His funeral really was a Dartmouth affair. Rev. John Evans of Northfield and the Class of 1939, conducted the services. He concluded by reading from "Dartmouth Undying," a very fitting touch. And he was borne to his rest by three sons of Dartmouth, George Robins '31, Gordon Lane '32, and Leslie Larsen '59.
