Class President Josh Rich presided over a class meeting on the morning of the Harvard game in Hanover. In addition to myself, those in attendance were Gene Gasbarro, our social chairman, Gary Speiss, John Clark, JohnSchiffman, and Dave Wentworth. Dave, who lives in Michigan, was returning to Hanover for the first time in many years, so this was his first participation in a class function. We encourage those of you who have not been active in class affairs to reacquaint yourselves with the class as we look forward to our 25 th reunion. After the 14-12 victory over Harvard (Dartmouth's fourth straight over the Crimson, by the way), we celebrated at Pierce's Inn in Etna, joined by the Sonny Kablers and GarySchwartzes. Next year's mini-reunion and class meeting during the football season will be on October 22, 1983, Homecoming and the Cornell game.
In April, Wesley R. Guylay announced his resignation as senior vice president, Morgan Guaranty Trust Company, to become investment advisor to Wesley Guylay Capital Management, an investment partnership with Bass Brothers Enterprises of Fort Worth, Tex. The class extends its best wishes to Wes for the success of his new venture.
We have received word from the American Bar Association in Chicago that Bruce J. Ennis former national legal director for the American Civil Liberties Union, has been appointed to chair the American Bar Association Commission on the Mentally Disabled. Bruce, now a partner in the Washington, D.C., law firm of Ennis, Friedman, Bersoff and Ewing, was named to the post by newly-installed A.B.A. President Morris Harrell of Dallas, and he will serve until next August. With more than 280,000 members, the A.B.A. is the largest voluntary professional association in the world. Bruce will lead the A.B.A. component that develops policy proposals on the legal rights of persons with mental disabilities. Bruce had been the national legal director for the A.C.L.U. from 1977 until earlier this year. From 1968 to 1977, he was a staff attorney with the A.C.L.U. in New York. Bruce chaired an A.B.A. subcommittee on the mentally disabled, a forerunner to the special associationwide committee, in 1977—78. He also is active in other legal service and professional organizauons, serving as a member of the boards of directors of the Lawyers Committee for International Human Rights since 1980 and of the Legal Aid Society of New York from 1977 until this year. He is a member of the D.C. Bar Association and the Association of Trial Lawyers of America.
Ross Burkardt's slide show has received a lot of very favorable publicity and many screenings around the country. We are looking into the possibility of getting a video tape version of the show and making it available for purchase. The idea has come forward that we should have an updated version for our 25th reunion. No definite decisions have been made, but I would recommend that all of you collect any pictures, slides, or other material that might be submitted for the 25th. In addition, any black and white photographs that any of you feel might be appropriate to supplement this column would be appreciated, especially of the recent 20th reunion.
In an article entitled "Living Like Princes on Less Than $35,000 a Year" in the September issue of Money magazine, Marilee and Sam Andersen are one of the featured families. Living in plush Palo Alto, Calif., with daughters Sarah and Mary, they manage to live well on Sam's $28,500 salary as a high school English teacher. In addition to owning a home in an expensive neighborhood, the Andersens have lofty and costly ideals. Marilee, also a teacher, chooses not to work for pay so that she can invest her time as a volunteer lecturer for energy conservation and against drug abuse, nuclear power, and violence on television. The Andersens can live the way they do largely because they bought their house before California real estate went crazy. Sixteen years ago they paid $25,000 for their three-bedroom ranch house, and so their monthly payment is just $ 105. Taxes are only $BOO a year because of the area's concentration of light industry. The temperate climate holds heating and cooling bills to'sso a month.
I would like to report on the whereabouts and activities of as many of our classmates as possible, especially those who have never appeared in this column. Any correspondence would be most appreciated.
