1973

Greetings. I'm writing this column during the July heat wave although you will not be receiving it until the cooler days of autumn. I hope that everyone had an enjoyable summer. And now with the fall before us, I trust that many classmates' paths will cross during the football season.

The Boston area is a richer place for the recent arrivals of Bill Mayer and Russ Kelley. Bill has joined the Boston law firm of Goodwin, Proctor & Hoar. He was formerly a law clerk with the.U.S. Court of Appeals and is now an alumnus of the DC firm of Covington and Burling. Russ has decided to leave the field of internal medicine and march into the new frontier of radiology. He and Pat, along with their three children (Jessica, Greg, and Eric), have left upstate New York and have moved to Sudbury. Russ is now immersed in an internship at the Tufts New England Medical Center.

Bob Conway wrote recently from Jacksonville, NC, where he is serving as a captain in the United States Marine Corps. Bob is a lawyer with the Marines but is currently staff secretary of the general staff and the base protocol officer. Bob explains that "Camp lejeune gets a fair share of senior military visitors, Cabinet officers, foreign defense ministers, and, occasionally, a prince or head of state. I 'coordinate' the details of their visits . . The Marine installation is actually a city of 59,000, so Bob also gets involved with a fair amount of legal work - mostly criminal, labor, environmental, and commercial law. He reports that he's "not going stale." Congratulations are in order because he has also been selected for the rank of major.

Paul Feakins sends word from Florida that he is now assistant headmaster for academic development at the Bolles School in Jacksonville. Prior to assuming this position, Paul was chairman of the history department and dean of students at the Metairie Park Country Day School in New Orleans. While in New Orleans, Paul and his wife Ann celebrated the birth of their two daughters , Elizabeth (five) and Susan (three). The most recent addition, Nicholas (four months), was born in Jacksonville. Paul has been keeping in touch with Hanover by acting as Dartmouth's district enrollment director for the Jacksonville area.

Paul has also sent news of the following classmates. Peter Jeremy Smith, Martha, and their son Brian live only a few blocks from the Feakinses in Jacksonville. Paul also reports that Jon Low is now a business manager with Sotheby's in New York. John Weatherby's pursuit of his doctorate in anthropology at Princeton has been interrupted, and he is now running a small carpentry business. Phil Myers is practicing surgery in his hometown in Ohio while his wife raises horses on their farm. And Trevor O'Neil is now studying at the Yale School of Organization and Management. Many thanks for all the news, Paul.

Finally, thanks and congratulations to you all. The $41,204 raised by our class for the Alumni Fund has set a new Dartmouth tenthyear-out Alumni Fund record. In total, the fund raised over $9 million with gifts from 24,281 donors for 66.6 percent participation. Once again, special thanks are due to Donna Ferretti, who did a superb job as our head agent. Donna worked endless hours for the College and the class.

That's all the news for now. The position of newsletter'editor is still open, so please contact me if you're interested. Our tenth reunion will be celebrated this June (the 15 th to 17th) so we have a special need for a new editor to help communicate news regarding the reunion. See you next month.
