1966

Those of you who have read the midsummer issue of Aspen Magazine can feel (free to skip to the next paragraph. That's because you've already seen the long feature article on Harry Teague, Aspen's favorite architect. Since arriving in the celebrated Colorado resort town from Yale University School of Art and Architecture in 1972, Harry has, according to the magazine, "made his mark by reinventing a vernacular architecture rooted in old Colorado building traditions." "His architecture," they go on to say, "is distinguished by his inventiveness, freshness, and attention to the design and craft of construction."

Classmate Richard Larson has seen Harry's work and has called Harry to our attention. Dick particularly praises the new 500-seat, 20,000-square-foot Joan and Irving Harris Concert Hall at Aspen Meadows, Harry's largest and most challenging project to date. The Hotel Lenado, a sophisticated, 19-room luxurious lodge, also has been acclaimed for its Western style and use of authentic local materials. (Tell 'em the DAM sent you.)

To perpetuate the Wild West flavor of the column comes word from Willard Cook '64 that Rob Cleary hosted his own 50th Birthday Party in late September at the Big Horn Angler fishing outpost in Fort Smith, Mont. Peter Richardson and Greg Eden were among the navy buddies, Dartmouth friends, mountain men, and spouses who fished and funned with the Denver-based birthday boy. Tape at 11.

No sooner do we muse about the number of' 66 offspring attending Dartmouth than Dr. Richard Kaiser comes through with some hard facts. It seems that ten classmates had kids graduating in June '93, including Rich's son David, who has taken his summa cum laude diploma to Harvard where he is engaged in an ambitious dual-Ph.D. program: physics on a National Science Foundation Fellowship and history and philosophy of science on a Mellon Foundation Fellowship. (Wow!)

Dr. Dad and Debbie, whom Rich met on a blind date during his first year at Dartmouth Medical School, will still find plenty of reasons to break away from Rich's general surgery practice in Montclair, N.J., and head north. Daughter Hilary is now a pea-green freshman.

Edward "Tar" Lamer balances running Tar's Trucking, a real-estate advertising firm in Oceanside, Calif., with Tar's surfing what he does between jobs. Judy is a guide at Hearst Castle in San Simeon. Son Russell graduated from Cal Poly and works for hot software maker Borland; while Ross is a chemical engineering major at UC-Santa Barbara.

Also in the Golden State, William Koelsch is international business manager for Tone Software Corp., maintaining and building a worldwide distributor base. Will is well qualified, having lived in France and Brazil most of the last 20 years. He has two passions dancing and new wife Amanda Goodan. Will has two sons, Marclo, 15, and Fabio, who are living with their mother in Rio.

Steve Lanfer has lots of jobs and lots of kids. He's been a partner in Jefferson Financial Group, investment counselors, and for the past four years he has been chairman of the Protern Group, which owns three dairies. All this is based in Greenwich, Conn., as is the Lanfer bunch—Steve's four, including Stefan, a Dartmouth freshman, and Barbara's two. Steve also remains a pillar of the class executive committee.

There are 15 governors of the New Hampshire Bar Association, and at least three are Dartmouth grads, including our own Hamilton Krans, representing Strafford County.

Keep the good news flowing.
