1965

Hosting 17 Princeton University varsity heavyweight rowers for the Head of the Charles weekend (the races were eventually canceled because of monsoon rains) prevented Jean and I from attending the mini-reunion. Our former class secretary, Jack Heidbrink, was nice enough to gather class news and reported that everyone had a great time especially enjoying the football team's convincing victory over Yale. He said that Sharon and BobBlake did their usual fantastic job of running the mini-reunion and "even managed to keep the heavy rains away until the football game was over." Next year's mini will again be at Pierce's October 31 November 2, the weekend of the Harvard game.

Among those enjoying the festivities were Roger Rines, who made the trip up from Tennessee and who recently served as the fraternity coordinator for our class in the very successful Alumni Fund campaign Brian Walsh, our esteemed treasurer who has us in the black, endured the long journey from his Hanover home to Pierce's.

French and Bob McConnaughey were up from Washington visiting their daughter Scott, class of 'OO, who is a member of the women's rugby team. Judy and HalMargolin, who also have a daughter in the class of 2000 who plays rugby (sorry I did not get her name), were there enjoying the fun as well.

Others seen during the weekend included Sue and Bill Webster and son Scott. Apparently Bill, along with Ted Atkinson,Larry Duffy, and Mike Orr, assaulted the Hanover Country Club on Friday. No reports of course records being broken (although rumor has it that Atkinson came close! Records or windows?), but Jack relates that "it was cold and they were hot." Others who Jack saw at Pierce's included Judy and Allen Zern, Brian Porzak,Rick Finnerty, Mike Mascari, Mimi andCarl Boe, and Hope and Gary Herbst, who were up from New Jersey with their sons, Nicholas and Christopher, and who had just returned from Europe, where Hope was visiting her family in France.

Hank Amon and his wife, Karen Kolodny, brought daughter Carly, who was attending her second mini-reunion at the tender age of 15 months. As Jack pointed out, some of "you who are 54 years old haven't made it to even one! Carly is ahead." Dick Lochridge sent a note from Pierce's relating that Lochridge and Cos. continues to go well with nearly 50 employees and 40 percent of the work international in nature. He says that "given the work load and travel demands, retirement of some sort looks more and more appealing every year. I'm still trying to figure out how to do it without stepping off a cliff." Dick's second daughter, Wendy, was recently married to a student at Duke Medical, his oldest, Kelly, is doing very well in Boston and Heather (16) and Nicholas (14) are both doing well in school and sports in Boston. Jim Griffiths presided over our class meeting, on which I will have more in a future column. (My thanks to Allen Zern for being acting secretary and taking the meeting notes.
