November 1950—remember: first trip to Cambridge for the Harvard Game; building of the new Nugget; Pea Green nip Eli in soccer, with two goals by Jamie Pradilla on passes from Bob Drawbaugh; Chester Cobb runs for class president; House Party Weekend; Pea Green football plays first game, and Ed Keiger scores the only touchdown; hurricane football game at Princeton played in 100 m.p.h. winds; first trip home for Thanksgiving.

Tom Malcolm is moving across the street after practicing law with the firm he founded 32 years ago. He has joined Goldberg, Evan, Malcolm, Herald, Donatoni & Rohlfs as a partner in West Chester, Pa. His former firm specialized in insurance litigation. He will be limiting his practice to representing plaintiffs in personal-injury matters. Tom was instrumental in establishing an Inns of Court, patterned after the British system, to educate young lawyers in the trial practice. His son Harry 'BO and daughter-in-law Dayle are both physicians serving as majors in the air force. Son Stuart '81 is an architect, Timothy works for Fox Studios, and daughter Carol is in med school.

Bill Garland practices law in Bradenton, Fla., specializing in tie problems of the elder- ly. (He is getting ready for us.) The Garlands are in the process of selling their home of 29 years to move to a smaller home on 19 acres so that Dot can have more room for her hobby—raising exotic birds. Three of Bill's children have made a career in the military. Bill held onto his naval-reserve status long enough to swear in the two who are officers.

Art Geller left the private practice of medicine to join Allied Signal in Morristown as corporate medical director. He is enjoying free weekends and evenings and beginning to think golf. Son Jay '82 is also a physician and has opened a practice specializing in dermatology in Chester, N.J. Son David 'B6 is serving a medical residency at Yale.

Bill Walls has been nominated as a judge of the U.S. District Court in New Jersey. He has recently been confirmed by the U.S. Senate. Bill is presendy presiding judge of the Civil Division of the Superior Court in Essex County (New Jersey's largest county). He was first appointed to the bench in 1977. Prior to his judgeship, Bill served as a Newark Municipal Court judge. From 1970 to 1973 he was corporation counsel for the city of Newark, and from 1974 to 1977 he served as Newark's business administrator. I have appeared before Bill on several occasions over the years. He will make an excellent federal court judge.
