1935

From all accounts the kick-off of the $425 million capital campaign at Lincoln Center, New York City, was a great success. The football team won the Ivy League championship, and the other teams, men and women, also performed well. The scholastic averages of the athletes continue at a very high level.

Reg Bankart retired from the advertising wars at least 20 years ago to live in Heritage Village, Southbury, Conn., but he still manages a large number of diverse activities. As the editor of the class newsletter he and Dero Saunders publish the Tear Bag on a semiregular basis. His first love, however, is painting, and he was designated as the Artist of the Month for August by the Brush and Pencil Club of Heritage Village.

Many of you will remember Quentin M. Anderson, son of Maxwell Anderson, who spent his first year of college with us at Dartmouth. Forced by the depression to drop out, he later received his A.B. from Columbia, followed by an M.A. from Harvard and a Ph.D. from Columbia. He was an outstanding professor of English/humanities at Columbia for many years with several tours abroad as a visiting professor. Harcourt Brace Jovanovich will publish his latest book, Making Americans, in 1992. He is rightfully proud of his son, Maxwell '77, who is director of the Museum of Art and Archaeology at Emory University, presently engaged in supervising construction of a new building to house the collection.

Chuck Gillan recently spent a couple of weeks in Burgenstock on Lake Lucerne, Switzerland, arriving just in time for the town's 700th-year celebration. He also vividly describes the rapid and drastic changes in Houston, Texas, during his years of residence in that city.

Joe Waters lives in Ithaca, N.Y., and Vero Beach, Fla., but is able to squeeze in downhill skiing at Vail, Colo. He is well aware of how fortunate he and his spouse are still to be enjoying good health in spite of the fact that they are so "ancient" they no longer have to pay for lift tickets.

Vic Luneborg's widow, Betty, reports that she finds Hanover the hardest place to visit even though she has been traveling from Loui siana to Alaska, Australia, and New Zealand. Someday, however, she promises to visit New-Hampshire.
