1972

Class news continues to pour in at a heavy clip. Keep writing and bear with me as the backlog lessens.

John Burke finally tied the knot, marrying Maureen Gerety in Vermont last August. In attendance were Dave Engle, Bob King, Shel Prentice, Dennis Cronin, Kevin O'Shea, Mark Graziano, and Brad Little. John added that Ghort isn't at all jealous; he's "happily munching on Vermont garbage."

Speaking of Shel Prentice, he and his wife Barbara recently had a baby girl Hilary Jeanne. Shel, a New York lawyer, plays rugby regularly with Wayne Young, Chuck Leer, and Jack Manning.

Bob Nycz and his wife recently had a baby girl, Marie Christine, joining Robert, four, and Mike, two, as part of their youthful family. Bob is the sales manager for Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in Santa Maria, Calif.

Practicing law in Washington are Doug Giblen and Gary Jordan, an assistant attorney general for the state of Maryland. After three years of being dorm parents at Goucher College, he and his wife Mary Jean have built a home in Bel Air, Md.

The cold climate continues to agree with Bob Deyle, who is an environmental planner for Oswego County, N.Y., "chasing after toxic wastes, water quality, air pollution, and nuclear power plants." Another out-of-doors type is Jay Worthen, who lives with his wife Cindy in a 200-year-old "plank construction" house in Drewsville, N.H. In addition to practicing law in Keene, N.H., he keeps busy chopping wood, replacing sills, and performing other household chores.

Dick Larson is also completing his residency at the University of Chicago, where he specializes in internal medicine. He will remain there to do a fellowship in hematology-oncology, which, for non-medical types, means cancer research.

Richard Warren wrote that he is in the computer field in Dallas and is enjoying the warm climate. He corresponds with Bill Gray, who now lives in Payne Bars, Quebec, where he teaches school.

Recently engaged is Phil Gioia, who is living in Manhattan and is a public health resident with the state of New York. His fiancee, Suyette Gearry, is an accountant with the Albany County, N.Y., Health Department, where Phil was previously employed.

A new job in Vermont is occupying Bruce Westcott these days. He is now working for a policy research firm in Montpelier designing welfare management systems. Jonathan Fauer continues to enjoy success in film production, having recently been admitted to the Directors Guild of America.

If your tax return is audited this spring, call Bill Carney in Seattle. Bill, who formerly worked for the Internal Revenue Service, has written some sharp criticism about IRS audit licies His material was published recently in the New York Times and Los Angeles Times. Presently Bill is with the legal unit of the Department of Education's Office of Student Financial Assistance, locating people who have defaulted on student loans.
