1919

JOHN HENRY CLARK died at the Cape Cod Hospital on August 6. He had been taken there several days prior to his death. Jack had been in ill health during the past year.

At the outbreak of World War I Jack enlisted in the army and received a commission in field artillery. He did not return to the College after the war. After a stint in the paper business in Holyoke, Mass., he became an insurance broker in New York City. During World War II he was a purchasing agent for General Motors. Later he went with a general insurance agency in Boston which he ran until he retired in 1960. At that time he moved to Harwichport, Mass., where he had lived in recent years.

His principal avocation was music. For years he sang with the University Glee Club of New York and was a member of a group who used to sing Sunday nights on the At water Kent hour. In Concord, Mass., where he lived for 16 years, he sang in the church choir. He married his wife Betty in 1921 and when she died several years ago, it left a big void in Jack's life.

Jack was a loyal member of the class of 1919 and his presence will be sorely missed by many.

He is survived by two sons, John C. and Thomas C., both of New York City, and two brothers.

ROWLAND BARNES FRENCH died on July 25 in Greenville, S.C., while visiting his daughter. He became ill in June on a trip to Europe and had seemed to be making a recovery; but he had another attack just prior to his death while spending a holiday with his daughter and grandchildren and great-grandchildren. In the words of his son-in-law, this caused him to die a "happy man."

He taught at several colleges before moving to Gainesville, Fla., where he did research work in nutrition at the University of Florida.

He is survived by a daughter, Betty French Greer, of Greenville, S.C., as well as seven grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.

BENJAMIN TENNEY JR., M.D., 85, died in his sleep on July 24 at his home in Washington, Conn.

When Ben retired from the navy in January 1971, he did so with the Legion of Merit and was awarded the honor of a rear admiral. These services were conducted at the Boston Naval Hospital in Chelsea, Mass. The award stated "for exceptional meritorious service during the period from October 1950 to September 1970 as a consultant to the Surgeon General of the Navy in the specialty.of obstetrics and gynecology."

In addition to his duties as a consultant to the Naval Hospital, Ben served as clinic professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Harvard Medical School where he taught these subjects for many years. He was the author of numerous medical articles.

The second year saw him as chief of surgery in a mobile hospital in the South Pacific. He was not discharged from active duty until he returned to the USA in 1946. He then returned to private practice, but also was appointed a professor, with honors, in his special fields at Boston University.

On both sides of his family, Ben was a fourth generation Dartmouth graduate. A future "Smoker" will carry much more information.

He is survived by his wife Constance and a daughter.

He was part of an international incident in 1948 when he was taken into custody on the Bavarian border by the Russians and held 18 days. In 1949 Roy became a professional lecturer, using agents and zigzagging across the country, driving his car and lecturing at high schools, universities, and service clubs from September to June. In the last 34 years he gave 3,500 lectures, sometimes three a day; most popular was "The Romance of Words," which he gave 3,000 times. He spent three summers in China, starting in 1975 visiting Chinese scholars he had met, and he gave frequent lectures on China.

To cut down on coast-to-coast driving, Roy accepted an appointment in 1970 as an associate professor at Kean College of New Jersey, with mandatory retirement in 1977.

Summers he usually conducted a tour through Europe or Asia; occasionally he just basked in the sun on Long Island.

Roy attended most '28 reunions, including the 50th and 55th. He was a cheerful, friendly man who seemed to be the picture of health. Later we learned he had been hospitalized three times in 1983.

After college Dick worked in the familyowned White's Pharmacy in Montauk and became the owner in 1933. He later graduated from the Columbia University School of Pharmacy in 1938. From that time until 1955 he shared his time between his pharmacy and White's Liquor Store. He devoted his attention to the liquor store until he retired in 1968.

Retirement didn't suit Dick, and he soon began another career as a real estate broker. He was on vacation from Remington Real Estate Brokers when he died.

In 1981 the Montauk Board of Education honored him when he retired after 35 years as a board member. He served as president and was cited for serving the most years as a school board member in the state. He served 32 years with the Montauk fire department and was treasurer for the l2 l2 years.

During the 45 years of his marriage to Ruth Schauer, they traveled on extensive vacations and enjoyed golfing together.

In addition to his wife, Dick is survived by two sons, four grandchildren, and a sister. In a eulogy delivered at his funeral , it was noted that Dick could have been considered the "unofficial mayor" of Montauk. The Montauk fire department's siren was sounded in farewell and the department's newest engine carried the flowers in the funeral procession.

1930

WILLIAM THOMAS DORAN JR., M.D., died of cardiac arrest in his. sleep on January 26. Bill graduated from Dartmouth at 19 and Cornell Medical School at 22 and received board certification in surgery at 26.

After his internship and residency Bill practiced in New York from 1937 to 1942. Then began a career in U.S. government service, where he earned combat stars as chief of surgery in the CBI theater, as well as the Legion of Merit, and was promoted to lieutenant colonel.

Subsequently he held senior medical positions in the Veterans Administration, Social Security, Army Engineer Corps, and Atomic Energy Commission, with a break in 1951 for a year's fellowship at Johns Hopkins, where he acquired a master's degree in public health and added board certifications in preventive medicine, public health, and occupational health. From 1972 until his retirement on June 30, 1983, he was a division director at St. Elizabeth's Hospital, Washington, D.C. In 1982 the hospital honored him with a citation marking his 72nd birthday, his ten years' service there, and his half century of medical practice.

Bill received and passed on a professional heritage. His grandfather and mother were both associated with St. Elizabeth's some 80 years ago. Three children, all with doctorates, hold senior faculty positions at the University of Maine, the University of Kansas, and Wellesley, respectively. A stepson is a city engineer in Alameda, Calif., and a Vietnamese foster son graduated this year from University of Virginia Medical School, Phi Beta Kappa and summa cum laude. Bill is survived also by his widow, Margaret (Taylor) and a brother, A. Benedict Doran '37. To all of them the class extends its sympathy in their loss.

JOHN OLIN GARRISON suffered respiratory failure on June 11 and died 11 days later on June 22. Previously an active and youthful 76, he had had surgery and radiation for a lung, malignancy last-February, from which he appeared to be making a good recovery.

Though he'd never been particularly communicative, we know that John (or Garry to most of us) entered the army as a private in 1941 and was commissioned a second lieutenant in 1942. Most of his 20-year military career was in intelligence and counter-intelligence, much of it overseas.

John retired as a lieutenant colonel in 1961 but continued his work as a civilian. He served on the teaching staff of the Army Intelligence School and was highly reputed for his skill in the preparation of military reports. He finally retired again in 1973 to pursue his two principal interests of golf and foreign travel.

John was a member of Delta Tau Delta and was married to Norma Foster Holden on May 29, 1942. To Norma, his sole survivor, we extend our sympathy in her loss and acknowledge our indebtedness to her for much of the above information.

Through his cousin, Wilbur Jaquith '33, the College has learned that JOHN STEVENSON GIBSON, 79, died of a heart ailment on June 21. John was a member of a strong Dartmouth family, with a father, an uncle, two cousins, and a great uncle in classes ranging from 1864 to 1904. More recently, he had cousins in 1926, 1929, and 1933. He prepared for Dartmouth at Westminster School and while in college was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. Little has been reported of his activities since he left Dartmouth, except that he was a salesman for Jordan Marsh for a number of years and at the end of 1969 he retired as assistant sales manager of F. Schumacher Company. He was unmarried.

On April 15, following a lengthy illness, GUNNAR EUGENE HOLLSTROM passed away after suffering a heart attack. Although he had not enjoyed good health for some time, his death was unexpected. He had just returned home after dining out with his wife, the former Natalie G. Parmenter.

At Dartmouth Gunnar was a member of Kappa Kappa Kappa fraternity and Green Key and was one of the best pitchers in Dartmouth's baseball history. In 1930 he was offered a tryout by Connie Mack, then manager of the world champion Philadelphia Athletics. After giving it considerable thought, as Gunnar loved baseball, he decided he wanted to complete his education in engineering and so went back to Thayer School.

In 1931 he became an instructor in civil engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, a position he held for three years. In 1934 he went to the Norton Company in Worcester, where he remained for the rest of his career except for a break in 1946 for some management courses at Harvard Business School. At Norton he advanced to the position of superintendent of the Diamond Products Division, from which he retired in 1970. Besides his duties at Norton, Gunnar was secretary and then president of the Worcester Society of Civil Engineers, as well as a member of the Massachusetts Professional Engineers.

Gunnar leaves Natalie, his wife of 32 years, and a sister, Solveig H. Zambon of Milton, Mass., as well as a niece and two grandne phews.To all of them, we of Dartmouth offer our sincere sympathy.

He was a member of Psi Upsilon fraternity and Dragon senior society.

Upon graduation from Dartmouth, Fred married his high school sweetheart, Dorothy Donham, and entered Harvard Business School, graduating in 1932. His business career was spent in the investment field, where he specialized in public utilities. He was vice president of Tri-Continental Corporation in New York City and was a general partner of ].& W. Seligman and Company from 1955 until his retirement in 1971.

FREDERICK PAGE '54

1931

Delayed word has come of the death of HAROLD HOLMES BOND late last year at Winter Haven, Fla., where he had his retirement home.

Hal lived and spent most of his business career in Lebanon, N.H., where he was associated with H. W. Carter and Sons from 1937 until his retirement in 1969. He rose to the positions of partner and general manager of the company, which manufactures work, sport, and hunting clothes. He worked for the A & P and a Boston bank before joining Carter.

His other activities in Lebanon included the following: membership on the town finance, school, hospital, and Red Cross committees, town council member, scoutmaster, president of the Lions Club, and civil defense administrator in two war periods.

Hal's interest in Dartmouth and class affairs was always strong. He was especially active for many years in interviewing applicants for Dartmouth in the Lebanon area.

He is survived by his second wife, Melva, whom he married in 1972, and one son.

Another recent loss to the class was ROBERT MELIUS DICKEY, who died on August 6 at Cape Cod Hospital, near his home at South Chatham, Mass.

Bob spent his entire business career with Monsanto Chemical Company, which he joined in 1931 as a research chemist. He became the company's research librarian at its Everett, Mass., plant in 1942 and a patent agent two years later. He earned his law degree from Western New England College in 1956, and this led to his becoming senior patent attorney for the company. He retired after 35 years of service with Monsanto.

It was noted in our 25-year report that he had received four basic patents in the plastics field, and this number was no doubt increased in ensuing years.

His professional memberships included the American Chemical Society, the American Bar Association, the Massachusetts Bar Association, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He was a past president of the Chatham Rotary Club and a member of the Dartmouth Club of Cape Cod and for three years was district director of the Boy Scouts, among other civic service activities. He maintained an unflagging.interest in College and '31 affairs.

Bob is survived by his wife Barbara, three daughters, and one son, as well as five grandchildren.

Both Bob's grandfather, Myron Parsons Dickey, class of 1874, and his father, Maurice Wood burn Dickey, class of 1899, attended Dartmouth.

ROBERT JOHN HICKIN died on August 3 at Mary Hitchcock Hospital after a long illness. While his retirement home was in Rock port, Tex., he had a summer home at Pompanoosuc, Vt., and was there when he had to be hospitalized.

Bob had a varied and successful business career. After college, he became postmaster of Rittman, Ohio, from 1933 to 1947, working also with the Rittman Packaging Company after 1940, which he had established. In 1947, he gave up both occupations to join the Packaging Corporation of America in Rittman as the manager of development for the carton division of that company.

He was a prolific inventor of improvements in packaging machinery and held many patents in that field. He also became an expert in patent law and licensing agreements. In 1969, he retired from the Packaging Corporation to continue independent inventing and developmental work. In 1966, he also acuired the J.J. Wells Company, an oil and gas producer in the Southwest.

He is survived by his wife Elaine and two children, Robert A.'sB and Barbara. He had three grandchildren.

After the hotel was sold in 1969, he held the title of general manager. He was also at one time president and codirector of the Palm Beach Hotel and of the Shelbourne Grand Hotel Company.

His community services included member ship on the board of directors of the Long Beach (N.Y.) Memorial Hospital from 1956 to 1962.

1932

We have received word that ALLEN GARBER passed away in Boca Raton, Fla., on June 23, after an extended illness.

His widow Rhoda has provided the following information concerning his career and family: Allen served as medical purchasing officer during World War 11, retiring with the rank of major. Following the war, he founded the Garber Export Corporation and continued as its head until 1976, when he retired.

A source of great joy and pride were Allen's two children: a daughter Marjorie, who became an English professor at Harvard University, and holds degrees from Swarthmore and Yale, while his son, Donald, a graduate of Middle bury College and the University of Wisconsin, has advanced his career in law to become the chief juvenile prosecutor in Madison, Wise.

To Rhoda and their children, our class extends its deepest sympathy.

1933

JAMES AUGUSTINE NOONAN died in his sleep at his home in Mahanoy City, Pa., on July 11. Jim was a lifelong resident of that city as was his brother, Tom '33.

Any notice of Jim's life and death must also remember Tom's, who died on June 21, 1983. They were always close. They both prepared for Dartmouth at Mahanoy Township High School. Jim, a year older, waited for Tom's graduation so they could enter Dartmouth together. They roomed in Top liff, and Jim played on that dorm's intramural football and basketball teams.

Following graduation, Jim worked in sales and accounting for Noonan Brothers department store. During World War 11, he was a civilian statistician and accountant for the U.S. Signal Corps in Philadelphia. Until his retirement in 1975, he served with distinction as a sales-tax statistician for the Common wealth of Pennsylvania.

Jim and Tom continued their love of Dartmouth all their lives. They came to our 50th reunion together shortly before Tom's death. Jim later remarked how much that trip to Hanover meant to both of them. This past year Jim took Tom's former work as assistant class agent for the Alumni Fund and covered the rest of eastern Pennsylvania as replacement for Bud King. He was also active in his church and the Knights of Columbus and the Holy Name Society.

Jim never married. He had enormous pride as a member of the loving Noonan family, with its six brothers and two sisters. The two sisters and one brother survive, as do nieces and nephews.

ROBERT H. MITCHELL '33

1934

We have recently learned that MAURICE CONWAY BURNS, a retired high school teacher living in I slip, N.Y., died June 19, 1983, from an intestinal hemorrhage. Maury had come to Dartmouth from Gardner, Mass., after graduating from St. John's Prep where he had been on the football and hockey teams and played in the orchestra. He got his bachelor's degree from Fitch burg State Teachers College in 1935' and his master's from Columbia in 1940. He taught English and drama at Brent wood High School and was for a number of years a department chairman there. Over the years he had put on a number of plays with the Maury Burns players and had staged productions regularly for two Long Island dinner theaters.

Maury is survived by his daughters, Vaughan and Marion, his sons, Maurice Jr. and Owen, and by eight grandchildren.

WILLIAM BARRISS MILLS, poet, translator, and professor emeritus, died at his home in Nashville, Ind., on June 8. Coming to Dartmouth from Cleveland and graduating as an English major, "Bar" went on to get his master's degree from the University of Chicago and his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin. From 1937 to 1950 he taught English at lowa State, at Michigan State, and at the University of Denver where he served as department chairman. From 1950 to 1962 he was head of the English department at Purdue University and led the development of its first bachelor of arts and graduate degree programs in English. Bar continued teaching and writing at Purdue until his retirement in 1973. Between 1952 and 1981 he published seven books of poetry, one book of critical essays, and six books of verse translations of Greek and Latin poetry.

He is survived by his wife I ola; four sons, John '62, Russell, William, and Robert; brothers George '40 and Charles; a sister, Josephine She pard; and two grandsons. In providing this career background, John advised that a Barris Mills Poetry Fund had been established at Purdue. In an Alumni Magazine review of his Domestic Fables it was pointed out that Bar was a "literate man with a great variety of cultural interests, a professor who cares for his students, a humane man ... a poet who respects his art, and an honest human being who can laugh at himself without losing dignity."

We learn from his brother, Louis '37, that EDWARD LOUIS VALIER passed away suddenly of a heart attack on July 14, while sailing with his nephew and two friends on his yacht, Thai, off the coast of Honduras. There had been no prior indication of heart trouble.

Ed began with the class of 1929, and after dropping out for a period returned to graduate with 1934. He had long been active in real estate development in Florida, for many years as an official of L.C. Judd and Company of Ft. Lauderdale. This followed duty with the navy during World War II when he became commander of a yacht used by the navy for scientific work with underwater devices in detection of submarines. He stayed in the naval reserve and retired as a commander. He had a lifelong attachment to sailing and after retirement cruised frequently, especially around Grand Cayman. He was buried at sea near that island.

In addition to his brother who lives in Honolulu, Ed is survived by his three daughters, Jeanne, Joan, .and Suzanne, to whom he was devoted, and by his four grandchildren. Another brother, Frank '39, predeceased him.

1935

ARTHUR JAMES BAMFORD JR. died suddenly of a heart attack on July 30 in Key Biscayne, Fla., where he and Dotty maintained, a second home four months of the year. He had been in good health and fine spirits and was actively at work on a special project for our 50th reunion at the time.

Although a non graduate (he spent senior year at Northwestern University's School of Journalism to prepare for the family publishing business), Art was a loyal and active member of our class throughout his life. He was editor of the "Tear Bag" from 1950 to 1960. Living and working in the New York area after the war, he promoted and supported class picnics, cocktail parties, monthly lunches at the Dartmouth Club of New York, and Alumni Fund telethons.

Perhaps the most outstanding thing about Art was the way he handled his disability. A tank commander with the Ninth Armored Division in World War II, he had five tanks shot out from under him, finally getting clipped in Luxembourg, and losing both legs. He learned to handle artificial legs so well that he became a counselor to amputees in veterans' hospitals. And with a great sense of humor he joked about his feet and was never embarrassed to rest a hand on a nearby shoulder going up or down steps. It was the only help he ever needed.

Art had strong opinions about many things, included changes in Hanover, some of which he strongly opposed, but felt it never affected his love for the place. Last September the Alumni Magazine carried an article entitled "The Dartmouth Disease," which in spired Art to write a letter to the editor. "Recently picking up our old senior yearbook, I became aware that there are some 200 fellow classmates listed, including me, who did not graduate. Among them, I see many current friends I've never realized also didn't graduate (the) 'Dartmouth Disease' simply having tagged them as, say, loyalists without sheepskin, as it did me."

Art leaves his wife Dotty and daughter Diana Pucci, of Clinton, Conn. The class greatly mourns the loss of a devoted, generous, and heroic friend.

He was born in Fall River 68 years ago and spent most of his life in the New England area where he was president of the Fall River Outdoor Advertising Company and later an advertising and promotional executive with IBM. He married Elizabeth Williamson of New Bedford in 1941 and leaves her and two daughters, Martha Foster and Elizabeth Burrell; a son, Thomas Burrell IV; and three grandchildren.

He entered Dartmouth from Phillips Andover Academy and later served in the Navy during World War II and again during the Korean War. He was retired as a lieutenant commander.

Tom served many civic and industry organizations during his active years and had just recently started to enjoy the good life of retirement on Cape Cod. He was a strong family man but was able to make an extension of this to include Dartmouth and the Hanover scene, both of which were important parts of his life. He truly had legions of friends and used the music of Dartmouth and his own talents to bring these friends together. Tom always maintained the basic principles of life and through that made a lasting memory with those privileged to know him well. He will be sorely missed.

1961

The Reverend MILLS ROGER OMALY, 44, the Episcopal priest who provided our class with spiritual leadership at all four of our reunions, died in July at St. Vincent's Hospital in New York, 13 months after he was diagnosed as having acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS).

Wrote Dr. Donald Ginter '62, a Bones Gate fraternity brother: "Having learned of his fatal illness, Mills devoted his remaining time to educating and comforting those who shared his fate. He called this his 'new ministry,' deftly turning tragedy into hope." He visited AIDS victims who were hospitalized. With the encouragement of Paul Moore, bishop of New York, he urged that a special collection be taken to help his new ministry.

Mills came to Dartmouth from Hinsdale High School in Illinois; he sang all four years in the Glee Club, majored in English, and as a senior chaired the executive council of the Canterbury Association. Mills was drawn to the Episcopal Church while in college. Noted one classmate: "He knew that he had a vocation for the priesthood and was disap- pointed that his bishop suggested that he delay his progress toward ordination by taking an M.A. in English from Northwestern," which he received in 1962. He earned a master's of divinity from the General Theological Seminary in 1965. He served churches in Lattingtown, N.Y., Plais town, N.H., and Pleasant Valley, N.Y., and finally served as rector of All Saints' Church in Briar cliff Manor. He also was Episcopal chaplain at Vassar College. He held a number of church offices.

He is survived by his daughter, Jennifer, 13, of San Rafael, Calif.

Wrote Ginter, "He was able to change for the better the course of the lives of many of those who sought his help. Few of us will have done that in much longer lifetimes. All of us who knew him well will greatly miss his special view of life and living."

A memorial fund in Mills's name is being arranged for an Edgerton House (the Episcopal Student Center) student internship. It would help those interested in the ministry to spend an off-term in study here or abroad.

1962

It is with the deepest sorrow that I report the untimely death of DAVID LOUIS EBERSBACH, who died in Georgia on April 19.

Dave had suffered from cancer for a couple of years and had a tumor removed from his abdomen some months ago. Sadly, he had a recurrence, and ultimately lost his battle with the disease.

Dave exemplified the ideals of Dartmouth in many ways. He loved the outdoors and demonstrated that determination and perseverance can indeed move mountains. David became an accomplished orthopedic surgeon, specializing in delicate and intricate operations on the hand.

David was a warm, compassionate, kind human being with a hearty laugh and a keen sense of humor. David was also a devoted father to Peter, Lauren, and Kurt and a loving husband to Priscilla (Hall), a Smith graduate whom he married in late 1962.

David will be sorely missed by all those who knew him, his patients, his friends, his classmates, but above all by his children, widow, brother, and parents. To paraphrase John Donne, David's death has diminished us all.

WILLIAM BRODSKY '62

1969

CHARLES ALLAN PESTER died June 7 after a brief illness. Charlie came to Dartmouth from the St. Mark's School of Texas but was living in Randolph, N.J., at the time of his death.

Upon graduating, he went to work for the Burroughs Corporation as a territory manager, moving to the regional staff in 1972. In 1975, Charlie earned his M.B.A. from the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, and became director of Management information services for Burroughs in 1981.

Charlie is remembered by classmates as a person of astonishing intellectual ability: a quick mind, a broad range of interests, and a sense of humor founded on both brilliant wit and enormous powers of observation. Charlie loved the process of life itself, whether that process was reflected in a game of "Risk," a political campaign, or a work of art. His own masterful performance is all the more significant for its tragic brevity.

He is survived by his wife, Susan, to whom the class extends its deepest sympathy.
