1935

Two and a half months of green cards and letters to be covered, a bit dated in spots! Here goes. Our nonpareil president provides three items of interest: 1935 is now represented in Hood Museum by three paintings two gifts of Bucks Weil and one from Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Wolff; Lynn Britt and James Cuno, new directors of the Hopkins Center and the Hood Museum, respectively, have accepted with enthusiasm the executive committee's invitation to join us as honorary members; and an April 26 news item indicates a candidate for the Lazarus Chair has been designated. Don Radasch writes of participating in an Alumni Advisory Group's assistance to the Athletic Director Search Committee. The Great Class marches on!

Joe Sholkin, back from another visit to Nicaragua, writes of complete disenchantment with the Administration's indifference to "the atrocities perpetrated there and elsewhere" by the forces which enjoy our government's support. On the Dartmouth Review front, three classmates (Lloyd Marson, Don Hagerman, and Russ Erwin) decry the tactics of the Review, and one (OfayAllen) is "sick and tired" of the negative reports on the Review, which he is "proud to support." De gustibus etc. Markson has retired from dentistry and is now active with the American Museum of Natural History. Hagerman's Hanover time included officiating at track meets and watching his granddaughter play on the Ivy League championship ice hockey team, with a onemonth break at St. Simon's Island.

The Travel and Moves Department includes a report from Doug Hamilton on giving up his Tennessee summer home for a motor home, with plans for extensive travel. Charlie Nayor followed up a Caribbean cruise with Beverly Hills and Florida visits, then surgery in April, from which he is recuperating nicely. Bob Richter reports an attendance of 100 at a Sarasota Dartmouth Club luncheon honoring Surgeon General C. Everett Koop '37 with '35ers including the McLellans, Fellowses,Websters, Danns, Richters, Hage, and Specht.

Onalene and Joe Waters, spending the winter at their new home in Vero Beach, had the surprise and pleasure of finding the Carl Funkes moving in nearby: "They look great." The Reg Bankarts and GeorgeColtons, visiting family on the Coast, enjoyed dinner with Eleanor Smith, along with members of all three families. Eleanor says "the '35 class has a warm heart. Lou Brown agrees." In the same vein, CherryRyder speaks of the welcome extended by the Dartmouth family in Naples, Fla. And Peggy VanDoorn says "Thank you, members of The Great Class," for many messages of love and sympathy.

To which I add —peace and love to y'all. All y'all.
