1975

To say that news is scarce at this point in time would be grossly understating the problem that your class secretary faces. It seems as though autumn foliage, graduate school registration, football games, or the World Series tend to preoccupy everyone to the point that few contribute to the '75 class notes around this time. I'd hate to have to make up news, so please write.

One '75 who came to my rescue this month was Ted Stone. Ted was a 3-2 student at Tuck and went to work at Pfizer Inc. in 1976 in the internal audit department. In May of this year, while on a business trip to Korea and Hong Kong, he was promoted to senior financial analyst reporting to the group controller of the domestic pharmaceuticals business. After the business portion of his trip, Ted and his wife Lynne visited Hong Kong, Thailand, India, and Japan. While in India they visited the Taj Mahal - "definitely in the top two or three of life's all-time greatest experiences."

In addition to his work at Pfizer, Ted and his wife volunteered to teach an introductory accounting course each fall at a minority-oriented college in Harlem. They are now adjunct faculty members at Fordham University as Fordham sponsors all the business courses at this college.

News of others from Ted includes the following: "Duke Hart is co-producing one of Broadway's bigger successes this fall, Eubie!Eubie! had the longest run in previews in Philadelphia of any show in recent memory. Newsweek loved it and so did I.

"Steve Johnson is happily ensconced in scenic central Jersey working for Bell Labs and helping to develop 'the solution' that Ma Bell will feature in next year's 'The System is the Soltuion' advertisement.

"Wendy Burrell has successfully dropped the moniker "Ace' and has therefore managed to keep Morgan Guaranty Trust Co: fooled long enough to weedle a full year's salary off them. All scouting reports seem to indicate at least another year's successful employment."

Edward Donovan has been awarded the doctor of medicine degree from the University of Massachusetts Medical School. While attending UMASS Medical School he spent the summer of 1976 at the Centre for Rheumatic Diseases in Glasgow, Scotland, studying rheumatology. The following summer he studied radiology at the University of California, San Francisco. He has also done research at the Boston University School of Medicine and at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary. Ed will be an intern in general surgery at St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Brighton and will do a residency in otolaryngology at Massachusetts Eye and Ear.

That's it for this month. Have a happy Thanksgiving, and please write!
