1957

John Cusick, new to Chicago with A.T.&T., claims he was taken advantage of in digging up news for the ALUMNI MAGAZINE "Shelly(Kjellenberg) had seen one of my more famous stories published in Cavalier," he writes, "and suggested we get together to discuss pride of authorship over a drink or two. The drinks led to a professional comparison of literary efforts. My story was called 'Come Back, Shane.' Shelly's was 'Legal Opinions to Third Persons in Corporate Transactions' and appeared in the January issue of The Business Lawyer, an official ABA publication." "No contest," John claims. " The Business Lawyer doesn't even have pictures." So much for John's help. Let the Class decide.

The get-together resulted in some news, however. We learned Carolyn and BobSlaughter have two telephone lines to their home 'cause Carolyn gabs so much. Bob recently received his M.B.A. from the University of Chicago Executive Program and, as a vice president (marketing officer) of Marsh & MacLennan, was named administrative manager of the Chicago office. They have been in close contact with Dot and Ken Rakouska from Minneapolis. Ken and son Kenny toured Australia last summer.

Jim Donnelley was recently elected to the Board of Directors of R. R. Donnelley and Sons, one of the nation's largest printers, and Tom Donohoe was recently named partner in charge of the Midwest Region for Price Waterhouse & Co. Warmest congratulations to both!

Char and Staff Krause participated in the January Dartmouth tour to Peru. It's reported Staff clawed his way to the top of the Andes muttering "el burro es un animal muy importante," which is all he could remember from his Dartmouth Spanish. Staff is vice president and treasurer of Housing Systems, Inc. in Rochester, N.Y., and is active on the Board of Governors at nearby Canandaigua Yacht Club. It was there that he recently hosted Eric Kinzel, who was in town for two performances as guest conductor of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra. Eric and wife Brunhilda have just completed their dream house on Swans Island Maine.

Dick Renn has four hockey sons this Year Buzzplays for the New Trier West high school team, Scott is with the Pewee division of the Chicago Minor Hawks, Tom skates for the Winnetka Pewee "A" All-Stars, and Blake hustles for Winnetka's Mite "AA" All-Stars. Fifth son Andy is too young and is a "rink rat" along with Dick's wife Vernie. Dick is senior attending physician in radiation oncology of the department of radiation medicine at Evanston (Ill.) Hospital and Lake Forest (Ill.) Hospital as well as serving on the attending staff of the Cancer Therapy Center (Fermi Lab), National Accelerator Laboratory, Neutron Project Batavia, Ill.

Joan Porter, Quigg's wife, is recovering marvelously from open heart surgery last summer. Quigg is vice president in the employee benefits division of The Northern Trust Company, a large Chicago bank where John Price is also a vice president.

Shelly also recently served as manager of the Evanston (Ill.) Fourth of July Assn.'s 55th annual celebration, which is the Midwest's largest, and also sang with The Arlingtones' barbershop chorus in SPEBSQSA international competitions in Portland, Ore., Kansas City, and San Francisco.
