1951

This is a very hectic time for us as we prepare for the approaching ski season. The industry ski-condition report was syndicated last year to more than 40 stations in the Northeast and we hope for as much this year. In addition, we handle all the broadcast work for a number of ski areas.

Dick Bucey, pastor of the Avon Lake United Church of Christ, has just dedicated a new $450,000 addition to the Church. Dick says, "this is the culmination of nearly ten years of planning, study, and fund-raising activities on the part of the congregation." In addition to the joy of seeing the years of hard work culminate in the reality of a new building, Dick's son Scott was made a member of the Class of 1981. Congratulations to both of you.

Nearly a decade and a half after his death, a hope that Robert Frost long cherished has been fulfiled with the publication of a new book which is also an old book: an enlarged version of the famous poet's much-celebrated collection called North of Boston. The new and extended edition has been edited by Ed Lathem. This edition, designed by Ed and the distinguished graphic artist Rudolph Ruzicka of Norwich, Vt., contains all of the 17 poems of the original North of Boston, along with 13 additional poems.

We'll be at the Yale Game this weekend, and the Cornell game the 22nd. We hope to see many of you there as they should prove to be a lot of fun. On the chance that you aren't going to be able to make it, why don't you sit right down and drop me a note bringing me up to date on what's been happening to you?
