We recently asked ArtWilcox, who lived most of his life in Nutley, N.J. with his wife, Madeline, and daughter Edith (Bunny) what caused him permanently to move to Greenwich, N.Y., in 1970. He replied that prior to 1926 he spent many summer vacations with his uncle Arthur Wilcox, a respected mill manager, in Green- wich , and the town was the original home of the Wilcox family. Art inherited the family home in Greenwich and decided to live there. Madeline died in 1972. In 1974 he married Inez Godfrey, previously known in Greenwich many years ago. Accordingly, the Art-Inez team was welcomed into the fellowship of the 1926 family.

Henry Blake came by North Hill, and we decided on a 1926 luncheon. He continues his voluntary work in Watertown doing financial work that he finds interesting. His son Bob '65 lives nearby but does travel considerably doing M.I.T. alumni work. Henry's daughter Nancy, a Wellesley graduate, lives in Camden, Maine, a good place for visits—preferably in summer.

Ed and Ollie Raisbeck, Darien, Conn., enjoyed their summer home in the Gananoque Canadian Thousand Islands and recently returned there for a late-season afterthought. Ed became class treausurer when Jack Bickford died in June 1988, having served half of his five-year term. So Ed has put together six interesting annual reports, the last one for 1992-93 being on the last page of the recent Smoke Signals issue.
