Bruce Andrews writes from Wilton, Conn., that he and Ellie saw Carol and Fritz Arens while the latter were passing through with "two cars of kids" on their way to the Cape. Bruce, who has had a successful 26-year career in sales management with Westvaco Corporation, says (with tongue in cheek, no doubt), "Near poverty seems to agree - or I don't know better. Life is good, and thoughts of Dartmouth strong."

Another successful sales manager now living in New England is Dick Bareuther, whose employer, Avon Products, Inc., recently relocated him to Arlington, Vt., just north of Bennington. Dick has sales responsibility for Vermont and eastern New York State. He reports that second wife Carolyn and three-year-old son Matt are enjoying the country living. Dick has competed in several marathons, including one not too long ago in New York City. How about it, Dick? Do you find that country air better for the lungs?

Jay Butterfield, who retired from the army with the rank of lieutenant colonel in 1977, joined Control Data Corp in 1978 as a military training consultant in Minneapolis.

He and wife Nancy became grandparents in November 1984; their elder son, Jay, and his wife had a baby girl. Their daughter, Cathi, earned an E.E. degree in June and now works for Singer Link in Houston. Son Scott (15) still resides with his. parents.

John says he is "trying to steer her to the Hanover Plain."
