1986

The Hanover area featured many natural and man-made obstacles which Dartmouth athletes put to use working their bodies into fighting condition. To some the greatest test of endurance was peddling up Balch Hill, to others, running up Mt. Moosilauke was the ultimate challenge. Another sort of jock whipped his body into tip-top shape by subjecting himself to the strenuous fraternity/sorority circuit conditioning of the purest sort. A long-established test of physical fitness, the circuit predates modern exercise equipment such as ergometers, rollerblades, and Reeboks. Far away from his beloved Hanover circuit, Sam Kinney feared that his body and mind would halt their gradual decay unless he could develop a similar circuit in his new home town. Unfortunately Sam was not able to find an adequate substitute in Atlanta, but after great physical exertion he developed a long distance, multicity circuit. Sam's job with Booz Allen & Hamilton, a consulting firm, takes him on the road often, so the multicity format was only natural. Now airport terminals have replaced fraternity basements.

Occasionally he does a little entertaining between flights, such as when he treated Laura Lindner to a four-dollar hot dog in the Cincinnati airport, one of his favorite stops. As testimony to the vigor with which he has attacked the circuit, Sam already has enough frequent flyer points to transport his body first-class to Tokyo.

Dave Hadley is another '86 working the airport circuit. Since being transferred from NYC to Atlanta in December, Dave has been a frequent traveler back to the Big Apple in his work with Bankers Trust. Many of Dave's NY buddies never realized that he had left the city until they grew suspicious of his golden winter tan.

Paul Davis also has gotten to know some flight attendants on a first-name basis. His job with Monitor, a Boston-based consulting firm,, even whisked him across the Atlantic to Milan.

Tom Everett recently joined forces with a natural gas consulting firm. Having been on a Thayer meal plan for four years at Dartmouth, Tom had the perfect credentials to enter the gas profession. He shares an apartment in D.C. with Russ Aney. Russ spent a year in England working for MAC group, a management consulting firm; he has since transferred to their D.C. office.

Debbie Whitney's neighbors in Somer-ville, Mass., were beginning to get a little suspicious of Debbie's strange working hours. We would like to assure them and everyone else that Debbie has indeed found respectable employment. Debbie is a trouble-shooter for a computer firm and must work the late shift to chat with her company's client in Tokyo.

After completing his first year at Maryland law school, Nick Flagler decided to temporarily leave the classroom and get some first-hand political experience. Nick has joined forces with Mike Dukakis's presidential campaign in Des Moines, where he manages the campaign in a five-county district. When not tacking posters to corn stalks, Nick will be lobbying the cows and pigs. Following the campaign he will enroll in a government program at U.Va.

For those of you who doubted that TomBerry could ever find a wife, we have been informed that Tom and Jennifer Shakett, a recent Colby College graduate, have tied the knot. Many of us still enjoy sporting Tom's Winter Carnival T-shirt, but unfortunately Tom chose not to commemorate his wedding with a souvenir shirt.

Henry Harlamert will soon be dissecting the local corpses at the University of Cincinnati Medical School. After a stint with McKinsey, a consulting firm, Ned Searby is studying law at Michigan.
