Charles Sherburne Eaton is hustling windsocks with Dartmouth lettering. Gail and he retired to Fripp Island, S.C., two years ago and started Quail Cove Enterprises Inc., a windsock company aimed at alumni through their college magazines. For $18.95, you can buy one of Charlie's windsocks. He lives at 116 Quail Run.

Quail Cove is a bit down the road from New York, from which Charlie emanated in 1945. That started me thinking of how the class has roamed "around the girdled earth . . ."in our postwar peripatetic world. Take Fritz Ameluxen, originally of St. Paul, Minn., now of Vashon, Wash. Doc Achorn of Hanover moved slightly south to Wolfeboro, N. H. Carter Bailey, of Wheeling, W.Va., now resides in St. Louis Park, Minn. Jake Balatow the whiz from Lower Merion, Pa., reposes in Hick- ory, N. C., thinking fondly of his soccer managerial days with Tommy Dent, Sage of School Street. Bob Barnaby from Simsbury, Conn., calls Atlanta home.

Maybe he thought Howell, Mich., too prosaic, but John Barr operates a real estate firm in St. Croix, Virgin Islands. BobBelfit of Midland, Mich., and Dow Chemical, started from Waterbury, Conn. BobBerg, an original Manhattanite, now serves humanity and country as a medical doctor with the U.S. Army Community Hospital, Schofield Barracks, Hawaii. Bob and Dorothy have six children, with the fine biblical names' of Benjamin, Joshua, Rachel, Isaac, Nathanial, and Elijah. Now in Charlotte, N.C., is Dud Burch, who grew up in Scarsdale.

Russ Cort from Framingham, Mass., now resides in Silver Spring, Md. DavidCotton, a native of Savannah, Ga., lives at 1917 Tigertail Avenue in Miami, Fla. How about Hugh Cruikshank? From Englewood, N.J., he now fights out of Bird Creek, Ark. Loomis Dana saw the light and moved from Mt. Vernon, N. Y. to Pownal, Vt., near Bennington. The Daukas boys love those hills: John Daukas resides in Watch Hill, R. 1., and Toli Daukas in Rocky Hill, Conn. Must beat Nashua, N.H. Jim Dean, who grew up in Amsterdam, N. Y., has moved to 100 Van Dyke Avenue—in Amsterdam.

Reversing the advice of Horace Greeley, Jim Dowaliby, originally of Roswell, N. M., practices medicine in New Haven.

Anyone can tell you that Marv Durning from New Orleans has been a prominent Seattle lawyer and civic leader for years, but how many know that Bob Dwyer, from Manhattan, now lives in Mill Valley, Calif.? Or that Lee Fancher my idea of a champion soccer player from Chatham, N.J., works for the Nordson Corporation in Westlake, Ohio? How about Leonard Frey, the dogged crosscountry runner from Mountain Lakes, N.J.? He's now a Ph.D. in San Diego. If you're looking for warm weather hospitality, see Jay Hart, M.D., who runs boats out of Longboat Key, Fla. Must beat Manhattan, which spawned Jay in 1945. George Harlow trekked from near Rochester, N.Y., to Houston, Tex., where he's employed by Exxon and, with wife Jean, sometimes still gives advice to four children, William, Thomas, Elizabeth, and Margaret. Dave Heusinkveld, originally from Cincinnati, practices medicine in Lewiston, Idaho. Dave and Mary have three children, Rigby, Sally and Henry, alumni of the University of Idaho and Washington State University. Nobody was a more enthusiastic "chubber" than Dave, and Idaho and medicine seem a happy confluence in David's life. DickKamm hailed from Massachusetts but now lives on the Via Dei Panieri in Rome, Italy. Ed MacDurney from Springfield, Pa., now is the pastor of Trinity Cathedral Church in Davenport, lowa. He has two children who graduated from Harvard and one from Williams. John Martin, from Long Island, is now an executive with Raymond Kaiser Engineers in Baton Rouge. Dick Moersch, who accompanied Louie Buie from Rochester, Minn., and Deerfield Academy (where they were classmates), practices medicine in San Bernardino, Calif., and, with wife Mary, boasts of Margaret and Peter, graduates of Mighty Troy, the University of Southern California, that is. Louie practices medicine in Minneapolis.

Let's end now with Jack Mudie, from River Edge, N.J., who gives his all for the Government Development Bank for Puerto Rico and resides in Santurce, a lovely place of sun and fun.

If you want more of the same from Kopp's Korner, just holler; otherwise, next month I deliver a polemic on the condition of the College.
