1968

As I draft this column on April 26, I am contemplating the gathering of your class officers in Hanover during the first weekend in May for a series of meetings. By the time you read this, news of those meetings should be in your hand;, and a final reminder to participate in the Alumni" Fund should be appropriate.

John Maxwell wrote from Toronto that he has moved there as part of new Argonaut heac coach "Willie" Wood's regime. John will I* coaching defensive backs. Jim Hodges ol Hickory, N.C., has purchased a three-bedrcoffi cottage on the beach at Kiawah Island, S.C-- near Charleston a beautiful resort area witt plenty of golf, tennis, and swimming. He is run- ning five to six miles daily, working up to hal • marathon distance. Jim and Portia Henle ar* leaving the United States and Smith Colle?e for a year in Manila, the Philippines, where Jim has a Fulbright-Hays to teach. Paul Fitzgerald entered private practice last year. Board cer- tified in internal medicine and specializing in endocrine and metabolic disorders, he is also on the staff and faculty of University of Califor- nia, San Francisco. Paul and Kathy's son Brent is now one, and the family is living in Mill Valley; they welcome any old friends. Last winter Paul fractured his right tibia at Tahoe after accident-free years on the skiway.

Ken Warner, associate professor of health planning and administration with the School of Public Health at the University of Michi- gan, Ann Arbor, was chosen as one of the 42 outstanding young American profession- als to receive a three- year fellowship from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek, Mich. Over 380 applications were sub- mitted for the fellowship, which may provide support of up to $30,000 to each individual. Ken earned a master of philosophy degree in economics and his doctorate in that subject at Yale. He has been an honorary Woodrow Wilson Fellow, is a member of the Committee on Smoking and Health and the American Lung Association of Michigan, and has done extensive research with published results in the field. He was a member of the Task Force on the Health Effects of the Economy for the American Public Health Association and has been with the University of Michigan School of Public Health since 1972. In his spare moments, Ken found time to be a "big brother" in the Ann Arbor Big Brother/Little Brother program. Since the intent of the Kellogg Foun- dation program is to broaden individual perspectives of people, places, and ideas, rather than to deepen professional specialization, Ken will have some fascinating and meaningful work to accomplish with a broad exposure to "unique learning situations," global problems at specific levels, and leaders of international organizations.
