Fred Haas leads off this month as a manin-the-news. Fred was a music major and senior fellow at the College and recently toured Europe and Japan playing saxophone with the Bobby Michaels Quartet and the Renato Sambo Orchestra. Fred currently works for the New England Digital Corporation and lives in Enfield, N.H., where he also teaches saxophone, piano, and improvisation.

Christian is currently working as president of True Basic, which is the company formed by John Kemeny '22 and computer science professor Thomas Kurtz. True Basic is creating a standard BASIC software that will be compatible with many microcomputers.

Dave Bracken and his wife Liz were at the reunion and I was able to catch up quickly with them. Dave has now earned his Ph.D. in industrial psychology, and he is working as a manager in personnel research for the Xerox Corporation in Rochester, N. Y. Liz and Dave now have two daughters, Ann, six, and Alison, four.
