"The central thing about JOAN LOVEJOY HIER was her constant capacity for caring. In a wide spectrum of things — from people to politics; from family to flowers; from language to liberty — she cared. ..."

That theme from the eulogy delivered at the memorial service for Joan, class notes and obituary editor of the Alumni Magazine, has been echoed and re-echoed in letters, personal in their condolences, which we have received since her death from countless alumni who have been the beneficiaries of that caring. She died July 27 following a cerebral hemorrhage. She was 50 years old.

A native of Cornish Flat, N.H.; wife of Frederick L. Hier '44, director of public programs at the College; mother of three sons, Robert '75, Gary, and Frederick, Joan began her journalism career as a reporter for the Claremont (N.H.) Eagle in 1942, at the age of 16. She received a degree in journalism from Syracuse University in 1948.

She lived abroad with her family from 1949 until 1967; her first son was born in Austria, the second in Sweden, the youngest in Hanover while the Hiers were on leave from overseas duty. While Fritz worked for Radio Free Europe, the International Refugee Organization, the International Rescue Committee, and the U. S. Information Service, Joan held a number of positions, most of them the inevitable manifestation of her caring spirit. She was Munich correspondent for the Free Europe Press Service and did border refugee interviews for Voice of America. She did freelance reporting of the Hungarian Revolution and its aftermath for the British Broadcasting Company and the U. S. press. She was a copy editor for an English-lang-uage magazine in Germany.

With $6,000 earned from her news stories, Joan organized and administered an interim refugee aid program in Austria. She helped organize an English- French kindergarten in Geneva. She flew as an escort officer for the IRO, transporting refugees from Germany to Australia.

While Fritz was in Vietnam from 1965 to 1967 on his last assignment for the USIS, Joan and their sons lived for some time in Thailand. The plight of Southeast Asia brought new focus to her caring, providing strong impetus for an early and determined protest against U. S. involvement in the war in Vietnam. Unlike many, Joan did something about it; she took pride in having been arrested for an attempt to prevent a bus in Lebanon from taking draftees to Concord for induction.

In 1967, the Hiers returned to Cornish Flat, where they lived in Joan's childhood home on Lovejoy Hill. She was a member of the Magazine's editorial staff during 1967-68 and returned as class notes editor in September 1971. Two years later she took on the additional responsibility of obituary editor. Of her warm friendship over the years with the class secretaries, the eulogy at the July 30 memorial service in the Cornish Flat church reiterated, "She cared about them." And every one of them, from '02 through '76, knew it.

In addition to her husband and her sons, Joan leaves her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John F. Lovejoy of Cornish Flat, a brother, and a sister.

Faculty

IRVING EDISON BENDER, professor of psychology emeritus and an adopted member of 1927, died May 20 at Hanover's Mary Hitchcock Hospital.

Professor Bender was widely known for his studies of motivation, in particular of the college student and his undergraduate attitudes and their transferral to later life. He was a member of the psychology department from 1926 to 1959, after having been an executive with B. F. Goodrich Rubber Co. He was also a yeoman in the U.S. Navy in World War I.

A 1915 graduate of the University of Michigan, he was promoted to an assistant professor at Dartmouth in 1930 and to full professor in 1940. He earned his A.M. in 1927 and his Ph.D. from Syracuse University in 1935.

He was the author of Motivation and Visaul Factors and in 1955 he made public the results of surveys he made of two classes, 1929 and 1930. These showed that members of those classes had significantly lower divorce rates than the national average — 1930 only nine per cent and 1929 only four per cent. He postulated that these rates, about one-fourth of the national average, might reflect a loyalty learned earlier, saying "Once a man learns to be truly loyal to high ideals, his business associates, a military unit, or a college, a side of his character is developed that he will apply to other life situations. One of these is marriage."

Professor Bender married Gertrude Whitney on January 29, 1932, and she predeceased him in 1954. He is survived by a brother, Dr. Norman Bender.

ROBERT FISH, a classmate not easy to forget, died in Los Altos Hills, Calif., on May 26.

Bob, or "Professor," was born December 25, 1896 in Hartford, Conn. He entered college from N.Y. High School of Commerce; became a Rufus Choate scholar during his three undergraduate years; and before many examinations was temporarily "our favorite teacher, ' coaching fellow students at "Quick Lunch crams. Those reviews, if not their content, are still remembered. Many continue to refer to Bob as "the man who got me through college," but the remark Bob most preferred came from Professor Wicker: "Bob, I know every one of the 226 men who attended your Eccy review. They all answered Question 4 the same way and they all answered it wrong. But it was good teaching."

Bob was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Alpha Delta Phi, and Casque and Gauntlet and was chosen for senior service as manager of track, member of Palaeopitus, and secretary of the Class. He and his wife Mildred cochaired the 20th Reunion and in his one year as head agent, 1918 came from the ruck to win the first of its many Green Derbys.

He served as an officer in the Navy 1917-19, returning to Dartmouth for a master's degree while instructing in economics. In the 1920s he-was associate director of the Industrial Management Council of the Rochester, N.Y., Chamber of Commerce and secretary to George Eastman of Kodak. Thereafter, he was vice president of Lightolier, NYC, until arthritis forced his retirement to Tucson in 1940.

That "retirement" was only a desert mirage since Bob soon became a leader in community activities. Among them: executive board chairman of the Tucson Medical Center, establishing a 650-bed hospital; commissioner of the Arizona Power Authority, director of The Regional Plan and member of the city and country Planning Commissions; director of Tucson Little Theatre; lecturer at the University of Arizona; president of the Dartmouth Club; columnist for the DailyCitizen: and frequent speaker before many groups on the changing problems of this turbulent century.

Despite decades of bodily distress, his mental vitality seldom flagged, while his interest, support, and defense of the College never wavered. At the 1973 Commencement, President Kemeny characterized him as "one of our most thoughtful and articulate alumni" and later he "was pushed in his wheelchair across and beyond that beautiful campus" by author-actress Shirley

MacLaine as he had fantasized he would like to have her do at the time Dartmouth went coed. To the very end he was in cheerful pursuit of the ever-elusive goal of becoming an educated human being.

Surviving are his widow, whom he married in 1926, one son, two daughters, seven grandchildren, a sister, and his brother Sidney '24. Memorial gifts in Bob s memory may be made to the College through Mrs. Elizabeth Ely, 101 Crosby Hall.

1951

Jay Wolf was signed up to come to our 25th reunion, as he had to every previous one. Only this time his infectious smile, easy laugh, and exuberant personal warmth were missing. June 11, the Friday before, he died of a heart attack at his home.

Jay's career in the theater, films, and television, as casting director, producer, and theatrical agent, didn't fit the pre-Hopkins Center Dartmouth man stereotype. His Manhattan apartment was crammed with contemporary American art, most of which he acquired when the artists, many now famous, were relative unknowns. His empathy with people led him to seek out young talent in the black and regional theatres.

JULIUS ROSENTHAL WOLF, a native of Cincinnati, came to Dartmouth from that city's Walnut Hills High School. Jay was an English major, earned his "D" in crew, edited the Freshman Handbook, was editor-in- chief of The Green Book, and worked for Jack-O-Lantern and the Aegis.

In the fall of 1951, Jay landed in New York and spent three years in publishing, public relations, and advertising before deciding that the theater wasn't so unrespectable after all. For 14 years thereafter, he was a theatrical agent, ending up as a vice-president of General Artists, then the second largest agency in the world.

In 1968, Jay moved into casting for films and television. Among his most recent involvements were "Hester Street" and "The Adams Chronicles." Others included "Pueblo," "Antigone," "June Moon," "The Last of the Belles," and "Scott Fitzgerald in Hollywood." He also co-produced a Broadway play, did some TV production work, and wrote a few TV scripts.

At the time of his death, Jay was talent consultant, East Coast, for the American Broadcasting Company. He was a member of the Players Club, Friends of the Whitney Museum, the Municipal Art Society of New York, and the Chelsea Theater Center. A bachelor, Jay left no immediate survivors.

1955

The Class of 1955 is saddened to learn of the passing of ARTHUR FLANDERS BRANDT on March 25 in Fenton, Michigan. The cause of death was a brain tumor.

Art came to Dartmouth from Flint, Mich. He loved hunting and sailing and found time to do both in Hanover. He left Dartmouth at the end of his sophomore year, served in the Navy during the Korean conflict, and completed his studies at the University of Detroit, where he received his dental degree in 1960.

He practiced in Fenton from 1961 until his death. He was past president of the Genesee County District Dental Society and a member of the Michigan State Dental Committee on Legislation.

Service on the city council, the planning commission, and the park board led to his election in 1973 as mayor of Fenton, an office he held for two years. He had also been president of local and county historical societies and a member of the board of the Fenton Community Center.

He leaves his widow Nancy, two sons by a former marriage, two stepchildren, his parents, a grandmother, and two sisters.
