Save the weekend of May 11-14, 1995, for our third special national reunion in New Orleans. Class President Art Kelton said that former newsletter editor

Ken Kolb has agreed to be the chairman and that he is "already hard at work putting together an unbelievable package."

It will be hard to top this spring's "Dartmouth Goes Hollywood" and our 50th birthday celebration in Washington, but if there's a place where that can be done, New Orleans is it.

Art also announced that Roger McArt had agreed to chair our 35th(!) Reunion, which will now be held in June, 1996—not in 1995 like it says on all the master reunion schedules. Art had been trying to switch our reunion for several years, and it's good to hear he was successful. He is still negotiating with the folks in Hanover to get it on one of the two reunion weekends, rather than midweek.

The 1993 Alumni Fund class results: $156,570 raised with 60-percent participation, according to Head Agent Henry Eberhardt.

One of our most Dartmouth-active classmates, Ron Boss, has been named chief executive officer at A.T. Cross Co., the pen-making firm in Lincoln, R. I., succeeding Bradford R. Boss, who remains as chairman of the board. Ron retains his title as president. He has been with the company since completing his Coast Guard service in 1965, holding a string of titles as he climbed the executive ladder at the firm. All the while he's been active in class and College affairs, in die Alumni Fund, Alumni Council, and the current capital campaign, where he is co-chairman for major gifts. He received the Dartmouth Alumni Award in 1991. Ron also was elected chairman of the board of United Way of Southeastern New England.

David Mendelson has returned to New Hampshire to live. According to the Granite State News, he took over an internal medicine practice in July in Wolfeboro and joined the staff of Huggins Hospital there. He is board certified in both internal medicine and medical oncology, and has served on the faculties of the University of Maryland Medical School and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.

William Walls has received an M.B.A. from the University of South Florida in Tampa. William is chairman of the department of radiology at Stormont-Vail Regional Medical Center in Topeka, Kans., and he was a member of the charter class of a new 23-month M.B.A. program for physicians developed in conjunction with the American College of Physician Executives. The program is aimed at doctors who want to maintain their practices while gaining management and business skills.

News notes: mini-reunion chair and former class president Dave Prewitt has moved David E. Prewitt Associates to One Liberty Place, Suite 2700, 1650 Market St., Philadelphia, PA 19103.
