1958

Starting with a local story, John Blunt is now president and CEO. of a new asset management subsidiary of the Northern Trust Bank. They will be managing $3 billion-plus of pension and profit-sharing funds for the bank and are also looking for private funds to manage. John has previously been in charge of the planning function at the bank.

It is timely to remind ourselves that we are a go-ahead class. If your past record is excellent, it is tough to go ahead, but 1958 has always done it. Every class agent and classmate will have to do his part if we are to reach our goals for the 1985 Alumni Fund campaign.

Some of us remember when Doug Fusonie was a classy quarterback on the freshman football team. Now Dr. Fusonie of Greenfield, Mass., reports that his son, Brian, is a freshman at Dartmouth and on the varsity hockey team.

Jake Jacobus has been nominated senior vice president/financial consultant of Shearson Lehman American Express and has again become a member of the chairman's council as a producer and money manager. Jake and wife Gail attended the fall mini-reunion, had a wonderful time, and visited their son, Randy '87, the captain of the Dartmouth golf team.

There is a rumor that Sally Manuel had to complain about Ralph Manuel's plan to wear his Tiger cap to bed after they picked up all the marbles in the World Series. Ralph attended game five and was nearly overcome by emotion. Wait until next year when our Cubs, in better control of their emotions, come to claim the big prize. The games in Chicago will be played at 8:00 p.m. at Wrigley Field. The Cubs will be equipped with flashlights.

The Reverend Dale Sarles writes from Juneau, Alaska, that his oldest daughter is att ending the University of Northern Colorado. A younger sister may have ambitions toward Dartmouth in 1986. Dale is still counseling in Juneau and keeps making that wine we always hear about.

Ed Olney of New London, N.H., has a wonderful wife. She writes that their oldest daughter, a graduate of the University of New Hampshire, is engaged to be married in 1985. Another daughter is living in Dallas and a son just spent a year in Paraguay as an AFS exchange student. He is a freshman at Gett ysburg College. Their youngest child just started high school. Mr. and Mrs. Olney just celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary. The note gives no clues as to what Ed does, but we are glad to hear he is still raising children and can afford to send them to college.

We are also grateful to John Otis, class treasurer and senior vice president of the Bank of New York, for almost all of the material in this column.

Finally, we received a nice letter from BobZovlonsky, Harrisburg, Pa. He salutes all Dartmouth classmates who are "going for it." Let's hope most of you still are.
