1968

Let us not lose sight of the proximity of our tenth reunion, June 16-18 in Hanover. ... Get thy reservations placed and take all necessary actions to ensure your welcome presence! While contemplating the forthcoming excitement, take the time to consider a healthy donation to the Alumni Fund, befitting of a tenyear-after situation. Look forward to seeing you in Hanover!

Kudos to Doug Jewett, elected city attorney of Seattle in the November election. No small task, in fact the first successful challenge to an incumbent in about 60 years! This post is one of the few elected city law offices in the nation, and past individuals have either been routinely re-elected or have hand-picked an assistant to carry on the work. Obviously a great deal of work and sound strategy went into this successful effort.

Wedding bells rang in Rye, N.Y., in February, for David Peck and Jean Sandman. Jean has been a credit analyst with the National Bank of North America in N.Y.C., Dave a banker with First National Bank of Boston. By now the Pecks should be in Melbourne, Australia, where Dave is working with an affiliate of First of Beantown, Boston Financial, Ltd.

The bells ring this month for Doug Farmer of Guilford, Conn., and Jennifer Fitzgerald of Needham, Mass. Doug is a research chemist, Jennifer an instructor at the Childrens Hospital School of Nursing in Boston. More bells ringing at Touche Ross & Co. in San Francisco, where Peter Dunn, C.P.A., has been made a partner.

Deserving of a few cold beers at the reunion will be Dr. Bruce Ehrenberg and family. After completing neurology residency last July, Bruce has been involved in an EEG fellowship at Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital in N.Y.C. He has also been working at Harlem Hospital while commuting to be with his family in Philadelphia on weekends. The long-distance award for the tenth may well go to my former roomie, Captain Burt Quist, U.S.M.C., who will be completing a tour in Okinawa with the Third Marine Division in June/July. ... We hope you make it back! Burt looks forward to his next tour as an instructor in the NROTC program at Penn., also to spending more time with wife Cathy who has been stateside, and with seven-month-old Erik.

Dick and Sandra Inwood and two daughters are nearby here in Glenview, Ill. Dr. Dick is one of two neonatologists in the Pediatrics Department at Childrens Memorial Hospital, Northwestern University. Sandra is currently pursuing graduate work in math education at Northwestern. Dick's prior training was at the University of Wisconsin (neonatology) and Duke University (pediatric residency). Frankand Claire Stech moved to Bethesda, Md., from Santa Barbara, Calif., with a job change. Frank works for Mathematica, a social science research and development firm, and Claire is a programmer with Informatics. The trip east (two cars, one child in each) included "adventures with tornadoes" in western Kansas!

While in the Upper Valley, you might consider letting Ed MacNeill be your host at the new Sheraton Inn and Conference Center in illustrious West Lebanon. The center features 126 guest rooms, courtyard garden restaurant, "rustic" New England tavern, and enclosed swimming pool, as well as suites, conference rooms, and a ballroom to serve larger groups.

I must close on a sad note, as I just received word that classmate Walter Baynes died in New York City on March 8. Walt was a resident physician at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary at the time of his death.
