1977
Recently an item was received in an envelope lacking both a return address and an explanatory note. Enclosed was the cover of the December 1982 issue of Town and Country. little was revealed by a perusal of the displayed article titles, which included: "America's Top Debutantes," "Timeless Teddy Bears," and "The Ultimate Hi-Fi." Further searching disclosed a second sheet, page 24 of the same issue. Lo and behold, there amidst a sea of nuptial faces appeared the visage of Eric Winston Edmondson. (Name misspelled in the caption.) Standing beside Eric was his new bride, Jennifer Elizabeth Lively. No other details were provided. Congrats, Eric.
After high society, the next topic is the highest court. In' April, Tom Barnico will display his rhetorical skills before the U.S. Supreme Court. Tadpole graduated from Boston College Law School in 1980 and presently serves as an attorney in the attorney general's office for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Tom reports that he will be arguing a controversial case involving a Massachusetts seniority statute and minority quotas and their effect upon layoffs which occurred in the Boston police and fire departments in 1981. While Daniel Webster. 1801, successfully argued the College's case without the help of the Lodge boys (to the best of our knowledge), Tadpole should feel free to draw upon the many talents of his cohorts. The possibility of a Lucky Pierre in the Supreme Court chambers would be a most convincing argument. Tom added that he expected to see the likes of Joey Gleason and Phil Ward, both living in the Washington area. According to an unreliable source in Chicago, Phil is due in the Windy City soon in conjunction with the U.S. Senate Investigative Committee on Organized Crime. He is an aide to Senator Rudman of New Hampshire. One last word from Tom was that he recently saw Pete H'Doubler and the mysterious Steve Mentzer at a doctor's bash. Pete and Steve are doing their residencies in the Boston area.
A usable response to the plea for news came from Amy Cammann Cholnoky. Amy, a former bruising Big Green hockey player, has wed John Cholnoky '8O. Amy writes that Ann Duffy, her maid of honor, is in her second year of business school at Stanford, where she relaxes by "running 35 miles a week and practicing her part in the annual 'Rocky Horror Picture Sho» Revue,' something akin to being a wench a: Heorot's medieval banquet." Carla Persons also attended the wedding and is working 10 international reinsurance for Prudential in Newark. Amy and 'noky have settled in down- Chicago, where Amy works on the Kraft Cheese account at J. Walker Thompson.
From Hanover comes word that Martha Cochran has married Peter Doyle, a graduate of Harvard. Martha is a computer specialist at Baker Library, while Peter has a Ph.D. degree in mathematics from Dartmouth and works at Kiewit Computer Center. Tom Cohn writes that upon graduating from Cornell Business School in June 1981, he promptly married Susan Costa of Wellesley College. Tom and Susan live in New York City, where Tom is entrenched in the family business.
Excuses are still coming in from those who missed reunion. Kevin Kenny notes that graduation from Arizona State with a master's degree in electrical engineering kept him away. In place of Hanover, Kevin journeyed to Silicon Valley to exchange tales with old cronies Morgan Conrad and Barry Hayes.
Craig Hilliard is involved in business school at UVM and admits to leading a rather sedentary existence. Michael Toll is still "geologizing" for Amoco. He is with the international company based in Houston. Leslie Kenney and her husband, Mike Fried 76, have recently found nirvana here in the Twin Cities. Leslie made the transfer from the East with her firm, Hewitt Associates. She reports seeing a poor turnout of our class at the Dartmouth Monday lunches in downtown Minneapolis and wonders where everyone is. Ice fishing, perhaps?
Back in Chicago, Gary Rogers has taken a permanent leave of absence from I.B.M. to finish business school at the U. of Chicago. This summer he and Jill will spend a couple of months searching for Mount McKinley and tracking moose in Alaska. Hoss has tired of rat fillets and is after more challenging game. They hope to be resettled in the East by early next fall.
Navy Ensign Charlie Swicker has become engaged to Barbara Biddle. Barbara is an instructor with the Sea Education Association and deck officer aboard the research vessel Westward. Charlie is currently assigned to the guided missile destroyer Scott.
Our most faithful contributors continue to be exiled ex-scribes Lindsay Larrabee Greimann and Paul Gigot. From Seoul, Lindsay writes that she and Garth Greimann have finally settled into a house, albeit one located too close to the Army's helicopter pad. They are both taking Korean lessons and trying to learn their way around this city of nine million folks. Garth spends most of his time at the bank, First National Bank of Boston, and Lindsay is free to roam the marketplaces and make forays into the countryside. They do not appear to be overrun with visitors, so folks should feel free to drop in.
Paul is doing a bit of roaming himself. After a stint in Thailand and India, Paul is in Pakistan researching an article on the Afghanistan War. He dines with ambassadors and sips cokes in this Muslim country where the women wear %eils. After Pakistan, Paul's travels will take him to Australia. It isn't easy to admit, but that sounds more interesting than watching the thaw here in Minnesota.
Currently the office here is running a bit short of news. Your humble offerings will be graciously accepted. Cheers.
