We want to call your particular attention to the fact that our advanced 35th reunion will be held June 13-16, 1977 (Monday through Thursday). Don Reich as reunion chairman will be finalizing plans with his committee during the fall informal reunion. We shall keep you advised of the details, both through this column and through Herb Marx's Clanging Bells. Currently, it appears our class will be staying in Russell Sage and Hitchcock Halls. There will be a full program of athletic and non-athletic events as well as various social festivities, both by ourselves as a class, and with the other reuning classes.

We have heard from Don and Pat Crance whose daughter Deborah married one Bruce Randall Smith in Atlanta on August 21. Don and Pat then went to Hilton Head to collapse and carouse. We also understand that they will be at the informal reunion in October.

General Mills advises that Paul Parker has been elected to the position as executive vice president and chief administrative and government relations officer. Paul serves on the board of trustees for the Farmers & Mechanics Savings Bank of Minneapolis and is a member of the board of directors of Kahler Corporation, Rochester, Minn., and Equitable of lowa in Des Moines. Paul is also a trustee of Simpson College, Indianola, Iowa; a member of the board of trustees of the Minneapolis Society of Fine Arts; first vice president of the Minnesota Historical Society and a trustee of the University of Minnesota Foundation.

We have also received word that last spring our own Phil Jackson was awarded the Roger H. Corbetta Concrete Constructor Award by the American Concrete Institute. The award was presented "for unique application of the site-precast columns and cast-in-place concrete in the building of the sea water tank at the New England Aquarium (Boston)." We know Phil best for his engineering and construction work for the College. Phil is also a lecturer at the Graduate School of Design at Harvard and the Department of Architecture at M.I.T.

Beaunit Corporation has just announced that Frank Hartmann has been appointed to the newly created position of senior vice president, marketing, fibers division. Frank is expected to assume total marketing responsibility for Beaunit Fibers.

That's it for the month; next month we shall report the informal reunion but in the meantime, send news.
