If you are heading to I Hanover this fall perhaps for our mini-reunion on October 17 be sure to catch the exhibit of NickDawson's art in the Hopkins Center. Nick's chair sculptures will be on display at the entrance to the Hop September 8-October 18. Nick has been teaching art to Phillips Exeter students off and on for die past 20 years.

Robert Kegan has been teaching, too, and for the '91-92 academic year Bob was named Teacher of the Year by the Massachusetts Psychological Association.

After 14 years of heading his own law firm, Barry Abelson joined the firm of Pepper, Hamilton & Scheetz as a partner in its Philadelphia office last May. He still focuses on corporate and securities work, and, of course, on his children Jessica, Alison, Alex, and Dan. Also with four children and practicing law, Gerald Parkinson works north of the border in Winnipeg, Manitoba, where he represents the Winnipeg Jets in labor matters and serves as a director of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers Football Club.

Dan Hedges is serving this year as president of the National Association of United States Attorneys, an organization of former U.S. Attorneys from both parties and from all states. A 1974 graduate of The University of Texas School of Law, Dan was appointed by President Reagan in 1985 to be the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Texas. Since 1985 Dan has practiced law with the Houston firm of Porter and Clements.

All is well in Charlotte, N.C., for Vicki and Leckie, reports J. Leckie Rivers. That must be so because United Dominion Industries, for whom Leckie has worked for die past 16 years, has promoted him to senior vice president. Leckie will now supervise the treasury operations and food equipment businesses of this major manufacturing, engineering, and construction company.

Look for Jeff Garten's new book at the bookstore. Entitled A Cold Peace: America,Japan, Germany, and the Struggle for Supremacy, the book examines the tensions between the U.S.A., Japan, and Germany as a new world order unfolds. Having held senior posts on the White House staff, in the Nixon, Ford, and Carter administrations, and having served as deputy director of the policy planning staff at the State Department, Jeff writes with considerable authority on the subject. Earlier in the summer he appeared on the "MacNeil-Lehrer Report" in connection with his book.

Also on the tube not long ago was KenDardick, appearing on a program called "Family Practice Update" to discuss the hazards of travel for folks with major health problems.

Woody Thompson has been working on several interesting projects for the Maine Geological Survey, including a series of investigations into Maine's glacial history and a National Science Foundation-funded curriculum project for Maine's earth science teachers. Woody's ongoing geologic mapping program continues to provide useful data for groundwater and waste-disposal studies. Woody hopes, by the way, to see an increase in the number of Cabin and Trail alumni who turn out for our 25th.

On the sub ject of our 25th, Line Eldredge and his Reunion Giving Committee are off and running, and Joe Grasso, as chair of the nominating committee, stands ready to receive nominations of class officers—including secretary! who will lead our class beyond next year's reunion. Joe can be reached at 15 Stevens Circle, Andover, MA 01810.

Finally, our heartfelt sympathies go to Richard Noyes, whose father Parker E.Noyes '28, Tuck '29, passed away on April 20.
