1943

Bob and Barbara Liming and Fred and Margie Stock well visited with Harry and Deb Townshend in New Haven for the Yale game last fall. In the course of their visit they learned that the Townshends received the Seal of the City Award for community service, saluting them both for their decades of personal effort across a wide range of New Haven needs and concerns. The New Haven Colony Historical Society's award went to them as a distinguished wife-husband team who, while involved in contemporary community endeavors, have also done exceptional work in the preservation of old places and old practices of New Haven's_past. Kudos!

From Mike Thurston's note to HowieLeavitt we learn that by the time you read this Mike and Connie, Fred and Margie Stock well, Phil Harmon and friend, and perhaps Dave Hoffman, will be skiing in the Italian Alps. In a recent issue we noted Bill Seidman's championship of community banking. Now Chuck Arnstein writes to inform us that we can see and hear Bill on CNBC TV on Thursdays at 2:30 p.m. EST. Chuck notes, "Bill gives a rundown on exactly what is going on in Washington, with real behind-the-scene interpretations. After a short but in-depth summary he fields questions from viewers all over the country, tackling any and all subjects without dodging any bullets. If you want to know the real skinny on Washington tune Bill in. It's a real treat." Thanks, Chuck.

Sam Bullock died of Parkinson's disease last October. His obituary, honoring a truly great member of our class will appear else- where, but it is, I believe, worthy of note here that while Sam was probably the only black in our class there are today 280 black Dartmouth undergraduates. As well, 245 members of this year's freshman class are African Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanics, and Native Americans. As Charlie Donovan notes, Sam was not only a pioneer in black psychiatry but in Dartmouth education also.
