The class of 1928 stationery is due for another revision—Mutt Jennings and Curly Prosser have switched jobs. The reason is that Curly and Larry Martin are planning an extended tour to explore the wilds of Ireland and Norway. On his return Curly will assume Mutt's job of general planning for the 65 th Reunion, but both he and Mutt are looking for a likely candidate for reunion chairman. Curly has donated his house to the College and Mary Hitchcock Hospital, and will go into the Kendal Home now being built in Hanover overlooking the Connecticut River.

On June 13 SamMagavern received the Buffalonian of the Year award from Buffalo Mayor Griffin in honor of Sam's more that 50 years of service to the community. He was the first chairman of the City Arts Commission, was director and president of the Albert-Knox Art Gallery for 33 years, and served on boards of many other groups. After Dartmouth he graduated from the University of Buffalo Law School and has been a senior partner of the Buffalo law firm of Magavern and Magavern.

The mini-reunion banquet was held the night of Saturday, September 29 at the Norwich Inn, with 17 in attendance. Jerry Sass and his wife and daughter won the prize, hands down, for distance travelled to get there. Others included Joe Tidd and his daughter and son-in-law, Elizabeth andBill Ballard, Dora and Ed Flanders, Bettyand Lane Dwinnell, Larry Kenney, LarryMartin, Laura Sadler, Curly Prosser, ana Mutt Jennings. According to our reporter (Curly), the speaker, Professor Gene Garthwaite of the History Department and head of the College's Asian Studies Program, was excellent. The writer's convalescence, to his great regret, had not progressed sufficiently for him to attend.
