1959

Last chance to make those plans for our mini-reunion, October 29-30. Hope you have signed up. Plan to come and enjoy a glorious fall weekend in Hanover socializing with your fellow classmates.

In my search for news I have scoured the world! My broad group of regional agents seem to have forgotten how to use the telephone... oh well.

While attending the Orvis Fly Fishing School in Manchester, Phoebe and I not only had a wonderful time acquiring skills for a new sport during the three-day workshop, but we also ran into our ever-vigilant newsletter editors Bill and Tina Long, who were enjoy- ing a summer getaway at their beautiful retreat near downtown Manchester. No, Bill would not part with any of his info on you, so I must forge ahead.

During our spring travels we arrived in Jamestown, N.Y., and spied a fabulous Victorian dwelling which housed Barclay Well-man's design firm, as well as antiques and rooms "alive" with taste and color. A mustsee. It will be difficult to leave widiout a major purchase. Jamestown is next door to Lake Chautauqua, a true renaissance area filled widi cultural events that last all summer.

In Barclay's other life he is a major general in the Army Reserve and most recently commanded the 8,000-man 98th Training Division in New York. He commutes frequently to the Rochester, N.Y., headquarters. He has lead many commands, earned many metals, and attended many senior military schools. Barclay's wife, Diane, is also from Jamestown, and they have three children. We had a great visit and plan to return next summer for some of Chautauqua's cultural events.

Another confirmed rumor is the move of Jim and Betsy Wooster to Norwich, Vt., in the near future when their beautiful home, high up on the Vermont hillside overlooking the Connecticut River, is complete. I understand that Betsy is the "major domo" on this construction project.

Now to a less exotic place, New Haven, Conn., and our renowned legal scholar OwenFiss. Owen has just been named Yale's Sterling Professor of Law following a star-studded career. After Dartmouth he obtained a B.Phil, from Oxford, where he was a Fulbright scholar, and then his LL.D. from Harvard Law School. He served as law clerk to U.S. Supreme Court Justices Thurgood Marshall and William Brennan. He served on the Law Faculty at U-Chicago 1968-74 and at Yale since then. He has written a number of articles, publications, and books dealing primarily with civil rights, and more recently with the legal system. He was a consultant to the Presidential Commission on Campus Unrest in 1970, and to the Impeachment Inquiry of The House of Representatives Committee on die Judiciary in 1974. Congratulations, Owen, we are proud of you.

We look forward to seeing everyone in Hanover in October.
