Greetings of the season to one and all. I have a potpourri of class news this month so here it goes.

Let me start by welcoming George Leach back to the Boston area. George has left Merrill Lynch to join the Digital Corporation as one of their top personnel officers. Class president Wayne Davis continues to rise and fall with the stock market as an account executive with Kidder, Peabody in Botson. Speaking of the stock market, George Kidder has recently left the world of banking to join Excalibur Company in Boston. George will specialize in money management. The last word from DaveWalkum is that he was a partner in an insurance adjustment firm in the Windsor, Ontario, area. Jake Johnston is a teacher and coach in the Toronto area. Walt Sustek has a growing dental practice in South Carolina. Charlie Boarman is practicing law in Baltimore, in between golf and poker games.

Dave "Jet" Nichols is the manager of Lord Jeffrey Amherst Inn in Amherst, Mass. Mike Neary is still one of the leading executives of Rockresorts and is managing their properties in the Caribbean. PeteSmith is a senior executive with the Gate Oil Company in Florida. He specializes not only in the world of oil but also in real estate development. Smitty's tennis game is as stong as ever; a couple of years ago he and his partner won the Florida state doubles championship. That's no mean feat. And finally, Jim Sullivan is currently a vice president with Salomon Brothers in San Francisco, where he specializes in investment banking.

That summarizes a quick run-down of the whereabouts and activities of a number of classmates. However, I am always looking for class news so please send along a card or letter when you have a chance. See you next month.
