1925

In the Dartmouth Night parade the weekend of the Cornell game, the class was represented by President Bill Jenkins, Vice President PeteHaffenreffer, Larry Leavitt, Rad Tanzer, PerkFitch, and Jim Winn.

Montgomery House, endowed by Ken andHarle Montgomery, continues to bring stimulation to the campus. Senator J. William Fulbright was in Hanover at the end of October for a discussion in 105 Dartmouth Hall, including a speech and question-and-answer period. The Montgomery professor for the fall term was Edmundo Desnoes, Cuban novelist, essayist, and art critic. His course was a study of Africa, Asia, and Latin America. And it was announced that the famed conductor-composer Leonard Bernstein will teach undergraduates at Dartmouth for a six-week period in the fall of 1980 as a Montgomery visiting professor.

In last month's notes we reported that Professor of Music Jon Appleton and his wife Elisabeth joined us at dinner, Jon being the new Geisel professor. In the Time magazine dated the same week there was a full-page article on various innovative Dartmouth activities, including Jon's Synclavier, illustrated with a photo of Elisabeth dancing to its music.

Lyn White, besides working on special events of 1925, chairs the Tall Ships committee of the Boston Rotary Club. The ships will parade in Boston harbor for Boston's 350 th anniversary, a week before our 55th reunion, the dates for which are June 6, 7, and 8. Some of the ships will come from Europe and some from South America, and the biggest have crews of 400. The trainees on the ships will compete in the Charles River Basin in such events as sailing, wind surfing, and rowing and on shore in soccer and tug-of-war. Whitey expects to have everything lined up well in advance for both this event and the 55th reunion.

Bob McKennan and George Zahm, our most inveterate wilderness visitors, both got in some fishing in Labrador this past summer.

Hal and Carol Stevens have been in the process of moving to Hanover this fall.

Tom Csatari '74, a Class of 1925 Scholar while an undergraduate, has become assistant college counsel. He will participate in providing a variety of legal services for all administrative offices of the College and will assist the development office. Tom earned his law degree at Vanderbilt University and has been an attorney in Hartford, Conn., for the past three years.

George Lyle 'BO, the Class of 1925 Scholar for the past academic year, is from Anchorage, Alaska. He is majoring in earth sciences and plans to attend law school after graduation. He has been a member of the Dartmouth Symphony Orchestra and of the student government study group. George was with us at dinner in September.

You may have missed a picture in the September issue of this magazine of two seniors, Beth Baron and Michael Colacchio, who are sharing the duties of undergraduate editor and Whitney Campbell intern for the MAGAZINE. This internship was established in memory of Whit by Bob Borwell to provide undergraduates with practical experience in journalism.

We were saddened to learn of the death in September in the Vienna hotel fire of Mr. and Mrs. Donald L. Fraser, who were on a tour with other residents of Maine. Mrs. Fraser was the widow of the' late Ford Allen. Don was a Harvard alumnus, and, after their marriage, the Frasers joined us at one of our fall gatherings when the football opponent was Harvard. They had moved from Marion, Mass., to Kennebunkport, Maine, last year.
