1978

The final paperwork was on his desk. Although he had been approving loans for the Argentine build-up for several years now, he never thought they would actually get belligerent. "For an island with more sheep than people, Ceurvorst muttered to himself. "And now they want us to pull the plug when we are in so deep." Ceurvorst thought about his rather slow timing to assistant secretary in Manufacturers Hanover's international division, only slightly faster than the snail's pace established • Kiernan. He looked into the mirror -nc flexed. Is it roi: over, or cut the junta off, he wondered. Alas, these were things the Whale nad never taught him.

n\way, Steve has been promoted to assissecretary at the bank, and now gets to work word processors. Rumor has it Steve is t e man about town, as he used to be in *\ew London,

' ®oston> of marathon fame, is truly a I* '°BSers- Take, for instance, the case of arden, who every Tuesday night can be seen running through the streets of the North End. Yes, this is Prince spaghetti night. Tommy differs slightly from Anthony of commercial fame; he is the same height, but wears a pink polo shirt. Tom is running to meet his new girlfriend and Italian chef extraordinaire, Carlotta. Not many details right now, but Tom's pasta purchases have increased. Jim Bassett completed his second sub-three-hour marathon, and, as usual, didn't break a sweat. The same cannot be said for Pete Maglathlin, who managed to sprint through Wellesley, but had to hold on for dear life at the end. Also, when not rowing crew, you can see Cathy Cates jogging up and down the Charles, trying to make some sense out of all the knowledge she has been given.

This year's Kentucky Derby was unusual in several ways. Not only was it a sparsely talented field, but also there were rumors of the first human entrant. Yes, Joe Sullivan knew he could beat Gato del Sol, but could not get a waiver on the age limit. However, Joe did attend with Jerry Kortekamp and Bart Dickson. Jerry will be a resident (doctor) in Cincinnati next year and also hopes to play some third base for the Reds. Bart, after a summer wedding, will be doctoring in Detroit. Any good with knife wounds?

When I read that unemployment is at 10 per cent, it is hard for me to believe that the following people have jobs. Chris Morris is a marketing manager at Mark Controls. He has shaved and has even worked a 40-hour week. Bernie Drury is selling pork belly futures, now in Washington, D.C., instead of Minneapolis. However, before leaving the Twin Cities he ran into Sam Brown, who is working as a biolo- gist. Brad Blair is a service representative for 1.8.M., fixing copiers and typewriters, and he hopes to work up to mainframes. Even Nick Caridas is working, something I would have questioned eight years ago. He is a lawyer in Houston.

Finally, it may seem unbelievable, but while we have been away from Dartmouth another class has come and graduated. As a result, it is not too soon to begin reminding you of our fifth reunion on June 17-19 in 1983. Under Jerry Widdicomb's guidance we hope to have the best attendance ever.

Sorry about the abbreviated notes. However, it is exam time, and a person must have priorities. Alas, I am going to bed.

But not before bugging you once again about contributing to the College. Jack Kiernan has pledged $100. If he can do it, can't you? I mean, after all, Jack Kiernan.

Have a good summer, and please send me your wedding announcements.
