1976

After delaying this month's relaying as long as possible, the show must go on.

Most important is news of the major-league pitching debut (New York Yankees) of Jim Beattie. Zelmo's first major-league start pitted him against certain Hall-of-Famer, Jim Palmer. The result was Zelmo's first majorleague victory. That does not happen often. From all, congratulations, Zelmo.

Sara Hoagland writes, "just to spare my poor roommate, Ms. Joyce (Joyce who?) from any more grief... I am engaged to Andy Hunter (U.N.C.-Chapel Hill). We'll be married this summer and then I'll hit the Big Apple to sell advertising for the Christian Science Monitor." Sometimes they go quick. Sara, write more often so we can give you grief.

, Comeback-of-the-year award: Gordie Hay, ;t>fTowanda, Pa. (frosh book check). Yes, folks, after a four or five-year sabbatical - foreign j study in Russia - Gordie will start round two sometime soon, if he remembers how to get back to Hanover. Good luck, Gordie. Look at the old guy.

Kim Staggers relays surprisingly that "biochemistry was not to be my life's goal so I either will become a part-time custodian at Madison (Wise.) Public Library, days, and an exotic dancer, nites, or start law school at N.Y.U. this summer." A toughie. Anyway, Kim hopes to be in the B.A. (I suppose it's Big Apple) this summer to room with a friend in a nice little apartment in the lower east side, a stop for all travelers.

Mike Cutler is living in Cambridge and working at the Massachusetts State House. Cuts wants some experience before challenging Meldrim Thomson.

Gordie Miles plans on "working in a grain elevator just outside Winnipeg (Manitoba) as an assistant to the manager. If things work out, I may go with them full time." The Reverend Sometimes Miles, when in Grand Forks, S.D., "dropped in to see Rob "Pinball" Mclrath, who is working for the Porr Corp. or Perr Corp. - crazy Canadians still can't write - a grain company. Gordie continues, "Danny Tomlak is in his post-third year of dentistry and is getting married in July (is it over?). Lak is going to school in London, Ont., and getting married in Thunder Bay, Ont. Big deal! Wasn't he married in his freshman year, 1973? Ken Pettit is representing an insurance firm also out of London, Ont. Bob Cline visited Winnipeg during a break from the University of Michigan Med School. Gordie says nothing more about those two. Must have been a roaring time.

Mr. Miles would like to relay that "it would be appreciated if people would send ideas for class projects (thought they ended in 7th grade, didn't you?) to anyone on the executive committee. We already have the Class of '76 award, but we could develop other possibilities. Finally, the Class of '76 had 31 members present, and hopefully unaccountable for their actions, at the campaign for Dartmouth dinner in N.Y.C. - the second-highest attendance. We try harder.
