From London, Paris, and Strasbourg to Toledo, Ohio? That is Larry Hampton's odyssey. He is the new vice president of licensing for Questor Corp. of Toledo, a holding company whose most famous division is Spaulding. Hold the press. Hampton's assignment is to develop licensing business in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. So is he headquartering in Toledo? No, Strasbourg. Some smart fellow. Larry has been international vice president for Sarragan where he successfully introduced LeCoq Sportif brand sport products. Previously he had been with Addidas France. Tell your kids that degrees from Dartmouth and Tuck School can mean the difference between Toledo and Strasbourg. Apologies to Ted Furber of Libby Owens Ford legal staff, Toledo, and to Dick Warner, who grew up in Maumee, and to other Toledo Mud Hen fans.
Is it pounds sterling you need? Fred Pitzner has taken a position as senior vice president with Barclay's Bank International in New York. He can be found at 100 Water Street or phoned at 212-530-9880 (office). After five years in Tampa, Fla., the Pitzners are relocating to the New York area. Fred began work in January. Barclays is the world's eighthlargest bank and has over 5,000 branches and over 300 years of tradition. Fred, our former class treasurer, New England wrestling champ, New Trier East alumnus, and all-around nice guy, asks friends from Dartmouth to call him or write to him at the office address. As of this writing, I haven't received his new home address.
When pondering the various ways to make your Alumni Fund contribution this year, please remember the "in memorium" gift category. These gifts have been specially established through Dartmouth College to honor the memories of Sidney W. Wilde, son of classmate Glen H. Wilde, and classmates Jim Bryant, Bob LaFreniere, Robert "Mickey" McGuire, George Martinson, Bill Prescott, Bob Price, and Terry Schein. "The granite of New Hampshire is made part of them 'til death." Other members of our class who no longer answer present to the roll call include Dick Brooks, Charles Brown, Bob Buffington, Tim Doty, Lee Englisfi, Ray Hahl, L. W. Kernan, Cy Loutrel, Cliff Mishkin, George Rauscher, Ted Roodner, Miles Schlosserg, Harry Vandenberg, and most recently, Bill Bahrenburg. "The still North remembers them. The hill winds know their names." Let each of us honor our departed friends by rededication to the service of our glorious alma mater. "Who can forget those hours that passed like dreams?"
From the thoughtful to the delightful. Allen H. Pulsifer, professor of chemical engineering at lowa State University in Ames, lowa, has received from I.S.U. an Outstanding Teacher Award, signifying his excellence in classroom teaching. A1 joined the faculty in 1965 after obtaining a B.S. from Dartmouth, M.S. from M.1.T., and Ph.D. from Syracuse University. He has been responsible for numerous classroom and laboratory innovations and the development of several new courses of study. Several publications on teaching methodology have been written by Allen. In recognition of his work, he earlier received the H. A. Webber Teaching Award and a research fellowship from the Humbolt Foundation in West Germany. Your writer has called upon A1 Pulsifer every year as a class agent. Every year his answer is "What can I do to help the College?" A true winner. Congratulations, Allen.
Another winner is Don Moday. For years he has been traveling through the Middle East selllng American school buses. He says they are now being used extensively for transporting the ever increasing numbers of imported laborers in the oil-producing countries. Don and his wife are pictured in the adjoining picture at the vjreat Wall of China, evidence of their 15 years Oi globetrotting. Now they are returning from trie Sun Belt to the New York city area. Don is joining Abitibi-Price Sales Corporation in New York. He is the new vice president. The Modays look forward to seeing their friends in the Northeast again and visiting Hanover and the New England area with their four children.
Another classmate is making an interesting career move. Howard Buckman has been ap- pointed regional manager of the national account sales department of the House of Seagram. He has been the president of the International Military Club Executives Association. He has also been the president of the Greater Washington (D.C.) Military Club Managers Association. After serving in the military from 1958 through 1978, and then serving as a director of the World Wide Marine Corps Club System based in Washington, D.C., Buckman has also been a director of the Command Club Management System of the Marien Base at Quantico, Va. After Dartmouth, he completed the Navy club management course in 1971 and did graduate work in the field at the University of Virginia. One of his principal responsibilities will be to insure that the brand of choice for the 300,000 to 400,000 people coming out of the military each year is something sold by his employer. His wife is employed in the Office of Comments and Greetings at the White House. Since his territory covers the East Coast from Maine to North Carolina, I am sure most of us can figure out how to get a free sample.
The closing note: Don Brenner and his wife announce the arrival of son Robert Bryan, who was born on March 26, 1981. It is never too late.
Peggy and Don Moday '58 have combined business with pleasure traveling in Asia.
