1947

The news concerning classmates is all good this month. First, F. Richard Hill became a member of the 1979 Million Dollar Round Table for the third consecutive year. Dick has been in the life insurance business and a C.L.U. since 1960. He manages the Garnsey Life Insurance Department in Wells and Sanford and lives in Moody, Maine.

From the Granite State comes word that David Stahl (my roommate of freshman days in Ripley and Crosby) was elected president of the New Hampshire Council on World Affairs. Dave recently completed a term as president of the New Hampshire Dental Association. In addition, he has been active in a wide variety of civic, cultural, and professional organizations. From his busy schedule of dentistry and civic affairs, he finds pleasure and relaxation in music and classical piano. He and his wife Barbara, who is a professor of zoology at St. Anselm's College, live in Manchester.

A subject of much interest in business and industry these days is the alternate work schedule or flex-time. Herman Gadon and Alan R. Cohen, professors at the University of New Hampshire's Whittemore School of Business and Economics, have written a book that shows how this concept can increase both worker satisfaction and organizational productivity. Their book, Alternative Work Schedules:Integrating Individual and OrganizationalNeeds, won the 1978 Book Award of the American Society for Personnel Administration.

Lawrence High School in Massachusetts has a new principal this year, William P. Callagy. Bill taught math at Wakefield High School for 28 years and coached football at Wakefield, Peabody, and Lawrence. Bill should know L.H.S. well. He is a 1943 alumnus himself, seven of his children are graduates, and his youngest daughter is now attending.

To round out this New England-oriented column, Ralph R. De Fonce has been appointed a director of the Ansonia Savings Bank. Ralph is president of S. A. Isaacson Inc., a director of the Chamber of Commerce and the Valley United Way, and a corporator of Griffin Hospital. Ralph and Janet and their three children live in Trumbull, Conn.

Now how about hearing from the rest of the country!
