John Walters' term as president of the Alumni Council has ended as of the recent Alumni Council meeting. Congratulations to John for the outstanding job he did in this important position. In a letter to the Class Secretaries Association from Mark Harty '73, Alumni Council Representative, Mark stated that one of the primary achievements of John's tenure in office was the increased communication between Councilors and their constituencies as well as the very special work of the Council's standing and special committees. In terms of reaching out to all alumni, the establishment of the newest committee, the Young Alumni Committee, was a great step forward. Obviously, the focus of that committee will be to improve communications with the younger alumni who have graduated from the College in the past 10 to 15 years and to encourage them to become actively involved in alumni activities at the local, regional, and national levels. The class has also been well represented by John Clark, BobVan Dam, and Dave Hase, all of whom leave the Council as well. However, Arizona representative Charlie Henderson remains and has been joined by Al Cook, so we are still in good stead.

Ted Mascott wrote that he recently took his 17-year-old daughter on a tour of New England colleges and while in Hanover had a pleasant evening with former roommate Cary Clark. Ted reports that the College looks great; it's not dramatically different on the outside, but the inside facilities are vastly improved.

An update from Chuck Simpson: he and wife Anneliese, son Peter, 12, and daughter Carla, 14, have lived in Cincinnati for the past two years. Chuck works for Senco Porducts, Inc., a privately-owned company that is the world leader in pneumatic fastening systems, and has recently been promoted to vice president, marketing and international.

Arthur Pettengill has undertaken a mid-life career change; he has left the air force and has joined Ford AeroSpace & Communications Corporation operation at Goddard Space Flight Center (NASA). Art said it is absolutely great to be a civilian again and have the Pentagon blunders removed, once and for all, he trusts.

Joan and Ace Eaton have spent the past seven years in Waterville Valley, N.H., with sons Ace, 16, and Ben, 14. Ace's business interests include the development of condominiums, town houses, and village core at Loon Mountain, N.H., and Stowe, Vt. His newest venture is a new golf course-home project in Ipswich, Mass. Ace mentioned that he saw Pat andNancy Giles on a recent visit to London.

David Bergman writes that he is still a medical director and actually enjoying it more: He remains actively involved in the lives of his three children: Mindy, 22, at UCSD in writing/film; Jill, 19, at Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles working towards a career in fashion; and Beth, 15, a sophomore in high school. Dave continues to see several old friends and fraternity brothers living out west: Jeff Rush, Elliot Prager, and AlGreenbaum.

Some time ago John Wooster '61 wrote a letter to all DTD/Bones Gate brothers regarding an endowment fund being set up at Edgerton House, the Episcopal Student Center in Hanover, in memory of Mills Omaly '61. The income from the endow- ment will be used to provide funding for student ministerial internships away from Hanover for Dartmouth students selected by Edgerton House. John believes that such a fund would have meant a great deal to Mills and will remain a "living" memorial to him, as many of you know how much time and effort he devoted during his Dartmouth years and afterwards to helping young people. I urge my fraternity brothers and others who knew Mills to please help to remember him with a gift to the endowment, and send your tax-deductible contribution, made payable to St. Thomas Episcopal Church, to Henry Eberhardt '61, Blunt Alumni Center, Hanover, NH 03755. Hank is acting as liaison with St. Thomas and Edgerton House. Thank you!
