The class of '63 needs only $5,000 more to establish a scholarship in the name of David Downey, a victim of multiple sclerosis, now confined to a wheelchair and nearly blind. A marine officer who saw combat in Viet Nam, Dave may have contracted the disease because of exposure to Agent Orange. A resident of New Hampshire, Dave feels strong ties to the College and class and always attends homecoming weekends and participates in the parades and reunions. "We need to recognize that his spirit should be an example for all of us," wrote Dave Schaefer in his recent appeal to the class. Tax deductible contributions may be sent to: The David Downey '63 Scholarship, Dartmouth College, Hanover, NH 03755.
