Dr. Kneisel recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of his Dartmouth graduation, and although his daughter Elizabeth did not attend Dartmouth (she was pre-coeducation),. she was a member of the administration for three years.

While participating in the Alumni Fund telethon last June, I talked with Clark Doran's wife Karen. Clark is head of planning and transportation at Bally's Park Place Casino in Atlantic City,.N.J. I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you dropped in and took a chance with lady luck. However, one piece of news that Karen gave me caused me to reach for the Geritol. Their daughter, Christy, has just completed her first year at Wellesley College. Obviously, Clark and Karen have a unique situation, but nonetheless, it serves as a reminder that tempus fugit. Indeed it has and does! Take care and write.
