Faculty

Ellen Frances Adams, the first woman given the rank of full professor at Dartmouth, died in June at Alice Peck Day Hospital in Lebanon, N.H.

She was born in Springfield, Mo., in 1893, moving to Hanover that year when her father, Charles Adams, class of 1876, became a professor of classics at Dartmouth, where he remained until 1938. She graduated from Mount Holyoke in 1915 and received her B.S. from the New York State Library School in 1917. She served as acting librarian at Skidmore College from 1917 to 1919 and then joined Dartmouth's staff.

After 36 years as assistant librarian she was promoted to associate librarian and given the rank of professor that same year.

Many of her family members attended Dartmouth, including her great-greatgrandfather, Daniel Adams, class of 1797, and her brothers, David Adams '13 and Robert Adams '17.

Mildred Morse, longtime curator of art at Dartmouth, died on May 12 at the age of 91.

Born in 1894, she came to Hanover in 1922 after her graduation from Pembroke College. She also held a master's degree from Brown University.

From 1922 until her retirement in 1965 she was secretary and curator of the department of art; she was one of the first women to hold faculty status at Dartmouth.

As hostess of the Carpenter Hall print room, she was, according to Professor Emeritus Churchill Lathrop, a cheerful friend to all who were interested in the visual arts. "For 60 years she gave freely from her knowledge of art to the entire Dartmouth family," Lathrop said in a memorial citation.

He had been active and in good health up to the time of his death (with the exception of eyesight impairment from glaucoma). From his son, Ted Jr. '54, we learn that he had never been hospitalized due to illness.

Although not an active Dartmouth alumnus, he loved Dartmouth and was part of a long-standing tradition of brothers and nephews as well as his son, who are all Dartmouth grads. His fraternity was Beta Theta Pi. His career at Dartmouth was interrupted during World War I when he served as a second lieutenant in the army.

Since he majored in chemistry, his business career was spent with chemical companies in Milwaukee; he remained active until his retirement at around 80 years of age.

He was a great storyteller and had a lifelong interest in history. He also maintained a keen sense of humor up to the end of his life. Ted was truly the type of person who gained respect and affection from those whose lives he touched through his uncomplaining, warm, thoughtful, and patient nature.

Ted is survived by his wife of 58 years, Mary (Reed); a daughter, Anne Luber of Milwaukee; and his son, Ted Jr. '54 of Batesville, Ind.

Kent Birch Hayes, prominent Oklahoma banker, died on January 7. He was born August 31, 1900, in Ryan, Okla., and he came to Dartmouth from Oklahoma City High School. A wellknown, highly-regarded classmate, he served in the student army training corps and was a brother in Phi Delta Theta fraternity and a member of Dragon senior society. He and Chuck Vose, the only young men from Oklahoma in the class, were college roommates, fraternity brothers, and business associates, and they became brothers-in-law.

Because of illness Kent left college in April 1922, but he returned that autumn and graduated with 1923. He designated '22, however, as his class affiliation.

After Dartmouth, he returned to Oklahoma City and began an association that continued for 60 years with the First National Bank and Trust Company, where he was vice president and trust officer. He was also a director of the First Oklahoma Bankcorp. Though he continued going to the bank daily, he retired some years ago from all social and civic functions.

Throughout the years he manifested interest in Dartmouth.

Kent and Margaret Vose, a sister of Chuck, were married September 20, 1924, in Oklahoma City. Sadly, she passed away seven years ago. The present survivors are two daughters: Mrs. William M. (Yvonne) Parker and Mrs. George W. (Lyda) James, both of Oklahoma City; seven grandchildren; and 11 great-grandchildren.

Following graduation he was married to Elise Castelhun and entered the family laundering and cleaning business, where he remained all his working life, first with his father and later with his son. He was forced to retire in early 1980 by cancer which was treated successfully but left his right arm and hand nearly useless from nerve damage.

His activities, aside from his business, were typical in a small town. He served six years on the school committee and four years on the city council. He was a director and president of the Chamber of Commerce as well as of the YMCA. He was master of St. John's Lodge, AF&AM, of Newburyport. Other activities included some banking and library work and various services on ad hoc committees. His contact with the College and class consisted of modest contributions, attendance at several early reunions, and a ten-year chairmanship of the alumni interviewing committee. His church was the First Religious Society (Unitarian) of Newburyport. His hobbies were boating and camera work. The boat was large enough to permit extensive cruises to points north and south as fancy dictated. His skill with a camera led to a fine collection of marine slides.

With regret we report the death of JohnLewis Dean on March 23, a month after his 77th birthday.

Jack came to Dartmouth from Alden, N.Y., and graduated from Tuck School in 1931. He was a member of the band and the orchestra, as well as Theta Chi fraternity.

Following in the footsteps of his father, who was in the hardware business, Jack was associated for 30 year's, from 1931 to 1961, with the W. Bingham Company, a major hardware wholesaler and manufacturer in Cleveland, where he started as a salesman and retired as the sales manager. For five years he continued to work as a self-employed manufacturers representa- tive and then moved to Clearwater, Fla., in 1966. Retirement didn't last long, as in 1968 he established a business service and the following year joined a law firm as a tax accountant. We have no information that he re-retired, though he did find time to travel.

Jack was a consistent contributor to the Alumni Fund and a longtime active member of the Florida Alumni Association, which covers the Tampa - St. Petersburg - Clearwater area. For a number of years he was its treasurer and job development officer. In a recent letter his daughter, Deanna Dean Funk, wrote, "His love for Dartmouth continued throughout his lifetime." The class extends its sincere sympathy to Faye, his wife of 50 years, and to Deanna and a son, John.

After an extended illness, Clark Denney died of cancer April 12 at Southern Pines, N.C., where he had lived since 1968. Clark came from Cleveland, where his father was president of the Erie-Lackawanna Railroad. At Dartmouth he majored in American history, played freshman basketball and varsity lacrosse, and was a member of Phi Kappa Psi. From Dartmouth he went to Harvard and Western Reserve Law Schools, receiving an LL.B. from the latter. He also received a J.D. degree from Western Reserve in 1968.

Clark's career was a mixture of military and civilian life. Three times (1935-37,1940-41, and 1946-49) he was employed by the law firm of Davis, Polk, and Wardwell in New York. From 1937 to 1940 he was assistant secretary of the Cleveland-Cliffs Iron Company.

Clark's military career began as a private in the signal corps in February 1941. Advancing rapidly, he became a corporal in two months, a sergeant in two more, and an officer candidate in seven, emerging in his tenth month as a second lieutenant. Promotions to first lieutenant and captain followed within the year. In 1944 he transferred to the judge advocate general's office and spent most of two years as a J.A.G. instructor at West Point, being discharged as a major in 1946.

From 1949 to 1952 he was employed by the State Department in the military government in Germany, and in 1953 he was commissioned again, this time in the air force, where he served until retiring as a colonel in 1968.

Though his nomadic career limited his association with the class, his loyalty to the College never lapsed, and throughout his life he remained a generous contributor.

I am saddened to report the death of Edward Frederick Hamm JR., who was one of my early acquaintances at Dartmouth, as a neighbor on the fourth floor of Russell Sage during his two years there. Pete died of cancer at Georgetown University Hospital in Washington on March 19. After leaving Dartmouth Pete attended Duke University from 1929 to 1930. In 1934 he became president of the Traffic Service Corporation, publishers of technical and trade journals including Traffic World, TrafficBulletin, and Daily Traffic World. He headed this organization for the rest of his working career, except from 1953 to 1956, when he served as managing director of the Interstate Commerce Commission. He was also a consultant to the War Production Board during World War 11.

Pete was a founder of the American So- ciety of Traffic and Transportation and its president in 1961 and 1962. He was an officer of the Associated Traffic Clubs Foundation and also -headed schools for instruction in traffic management and interstate commerce law in Chicago, New York, and Philadelphia. In 1960, in recognition of his services as a publisher and director of the ICC, he was awarded the Seley Transportation Medal by the Transportation Association of America. The award included a $1.000 scholarship, which Pete assigned to Dartmouth. He was a member of Alpha Delta Phi, the Metropolitan Club, and the Burning Tree Country Club of Washington.

I particularly remember Pete for his perpetual good nature and a rather impish sense of humor. Despite his brief stay at Dartmouth he was a loyal alumnus, maintained his association with the class, and was always a faithful contributor to the Alumni Fund.

We offer our condolences to Pete's wife, Joy, and share her sense of loss. Other survivors are a son and two daughters, to whom we also extend our sympathy.

1932

John Gordon Almert passed away in St. Lucie, Fla., on June 2. At Dartmouth "Whitey" was a member of Alpha Delta Phi fraternity. During World War II he was a naval aviator. Following the war he pursued a career for 30 years with Sears, Roebuck in retail administration.

James Desmond Shevlin died on April 30 in Deer Harbor, Wash., following a heart operation. While at Dartmouth, Jim was a member of Beta Theta Pi and Sphinx. His outstanding contribution to The Players is detailed in the following note from Warren Hallamore '32, who knew him well: "Remembering Jim Shevlin": "Warner Bentley arrived on the Hanover scene with our class, and I was privileged to work and learn under him, and I got to know Jim Shevlin fairly well in those years. We communicated now and then after graduation, and he and Bobby, his wife, summered near me in Ireland around 1970. For many years they lived in Deer Island on Puget Sound, until they moved into Seattle, where I saw them a year ago. Jim had been ill for a number of years.

"He loved to talk about The Players, and he revered Warner Bentley. He was a brilliant actor with superb posture, a wonderfully vibrant voice, and perfect diction. Jim was certainly the stellar performer on the Hanover stage in our years and one of the most outstanding actors in the history of The Players."

Following Dartmouth, Jim attended Yale Law School and was later employed by Deere and Company.

Jim is survived by his wife, Bobby, and two daughters. To them, our class extends its sympathy.

Alfred Hunter Hicks, always known to us of '33 as Hunter, died on June 16 at Hilton Head Island Hospital, S.C., after a long illness. He had lived on that island since 1966, when he retired from business.

Following graduation, Hunter joined his father's firm, the Merchants Steel and Supply Company of Chicago, eventually becoming president of that company until his retirement. Even during his business career, he continued with his golf as a member of several clubs in Illinois and 11-times club champion of Skokie Golf Club, Glencoe, ill. He was proud of his six holes-inone over his lifetime. He also interviewed prospective Dartmouth freshmen, campaigned for the Alumni Fund, and served as a director of the Western Golf Association, which provided college scholarships for qualified caddies.

Following graduation, Dick received his M.B.A. in 1935 from Harvard Business School. Moving back to Cincinnati, he became a C.P.A., and worked successively for a bank, a nationally-known accounting firm, and a major life insurance company. In 1959, to quote him, he "developed a new type of business by crossing management consultants with investment advisors." So far as is known, this remained his own business, and he was active in it until his death.

Dick is survived by his wife, Daphne, and by two daughters and a son.

Stuart MacMakin, formerly of New Hartford, N.Y., died March 29, 1983, at his home on Martha's Vineyard. Stu came to Dartmouth from Utica, N.Y., and went on to Cornell University School of Law for his LL.B. in 1939. He began his career as a lawyer with Coleman and Jackson in Norwich, N.Y., and then moved to Cadwallader, Wickersham, and Taft in New York City. His clients there included such notables as W. C. Handy, composer of "St. Louis Blues." Stuart was an accomplished amateur musician who played piano, accordion, harmonica, and coronet.

During his 36-year career with General Electric he served as counsel for various divisions, including the atomic products division and special defense projects. He also served as a member of the National Security Industrial Association.

Stu's numerous affiliations included membership in the Federal, Massachusetts, and New York bar associations. At various times he was chairman of the board of trustees of Mohawk Valley Community College, trustee of the New Hartford Presbyterian Church, and vice president of the New York State Council of Churches.

On the Islands he was well known for his participation in the sport of sailing. In his youth he taught sailing on the Vineyard to earn tuition for Dartmouth and later for Cornell, and in later years he wrote in OaksBluffs Street Kid his reminiscenses of the town in which he spent much of his childhood and for which he felt a deep affection.

He leaves his wife, Alice (Peters); two daughters; Cynthia Meisner and Janet Wansack; a sister, Katherine P. Payne; and five grandchildren, to all of whom the class of 1936 extends deepest sympathy.

Bernard Gutman JR. died March 31 in Chesterfield, Mo., after a short illness. From Cleveland High School he went to Clark School and then to Dartmouth, where he majored in economics. He sang with the Glee Club and was a member of Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity as well as Centro Espanol.

Senior year he roomed in the top floor of the Deke House along with Walt Robson, Bob Crawford, and Bill Dwyer, which (during the week) may well have been the quietest place on campus!

Following graduation he joined the family trucking business in St. Louis, becoming its president in 1956. He retired about five years ago.

Through the years we heard practically nothing from him. A year ago we called him during a telethon and to our surprise found him much interested in Dartmouth and the class. His reason for not attending reunions was due to the conflicting interests with truck rate settings which occured at the same time each year and, of course, were all-important to his company.

Ben was on the boards of the Cauliflower Ear, Chamber of Commerce, and the Traffic Club.

Ben leaves his wife, Delphine; a son, Rick; and a brother, Oliver.

Chester Ormsbee Gale JR. died on January 30 in Rochester, N.Y. His minister, the Reverend Eugene C. Bay, said at his memorial service in Rochester: "Chester Gale played the game of life as he played hockey and tennis, always with respect for the other players, with a graciousness extended to his opponents, and with an understanding that the ethics by which we live are more important, finally, than the game itself."

Chet graduated from Nichols School of Buffalo. At Dartmouth he played varsity hockey and tennis and freshman soccer and was a member of Green Key, Phi Gamma Delta, Casque and Gauntlet, and the DOC. An avid outdoorsman, he frequently arose before dawn to hunt ducks. Chet majored in English and took great pride in effective use of the language.

In the class's 25th yearbook he wrote of his four children: "I feel one of the greatest contributions I can make as a parent is to instill in them an enjoyment of learning, the pursuit of excellence in whatever skills they develop, and a competitive spirit to do well in whatever they do."

Chet was a graduate of the Harvard Business School and worked primarily in various sales and marketing positions for Pennwalt Corporation in Rochester, including marketing vice president of the company's pharmaceutical division. He also was executive vice president of Creomulsion Company, Atlanta, and in earlier years worked for the Brand Rex division of American Enke and for Bettinger Corporation.

He was director of the Rochester Sales Executive Club and of the Proprietary Association and was vice president of the Dartmouth Club of Rochester. He carried his lifelong enthusiasm for sports into club tennis and hockey coaching. Chet was a committed family man, a loyal friend with a contagious laugh and a ready smile. Over the years countless people were touched by his energy, his vitality, and his playful spirit. This rare person who played the game so fairly will be sorely missed. The class extends its sympathies to Chet's widow Debbie; to Tim, Greg, Christopher, and Courtney; to Chet's mother, Mrs. Chester O. Gale Sr. '19; and to his brother, Dick '59. Alumni and friends may contribute to the Chester O. Gale Jr. 1955 Memorial Fund, which is intended for a "named" gift in Chet's memory to the current improvement of the Alumni Gym and related athletic facilities. Gifts may be sent to the College in care of David T. Eckels, Director of Stewardship, 210 Blunt Alumni Center.

We recently received news of the death on October 16, 1984, in Shaker Heights, Ohio, of Edward Atkinson Price, after a long struggle with multiple sclerosis.

Ted came to Dartmouth from the Cranbrook School and played on the freshman squash and tennis teams. He was a brother of Phi Kappa Psi and entered Tuck School in his senior year. As did a number of Tuck students, he returned for his second year at Tuck School as a married man, living in the scenic "luxury" of Wigwam Circle with his lovely wife, Barbara, and sharing many happy days in Hanover.

After graduation from Tuck School Ted worked in several management positions for Champion Spark Plug Company in Ohio. In 1961 he left Champion to take a management consulting position with Booz, Allen, and Hamilton, settling finally in Shaker Heights. Golf was one of Ted's loves, and as with everything he did, Ted excelled at golf.

He was diagnosed as having multiple sclerosis in 1966. Ted's affliction progressed, and he had to retire from active employment in 1975. He had been confined to home and bedridden since 1980. Despite his infirmity he was able to take great pride in the graduation from Denison University of both his sons, Bob and Doug, as well as to attend Doug's wedding in 1983.

All of Ted's friends in the class join in extending heartfelt sympathies to his wife, Barbara, his sons, Robert and Douglas, and Doug's wife, Liz.
