The New Jersey Golf News featured an article on Don Brief. Don is chairman of the department of surgery at the Newark, N.J., Beth Israel Medical Center and a board member of the New Jersey State Golf Association, the governing body for amateur golf tournaments. He plays to a six handicap and over the years has had three holes-inone. Actually four—the first one happened at the Hanover Country Club his freshman year. This is generational: His father-in-law, son and grandson have all had holes-in-one. His grandson is the son of Julie Brief Schwarz '78. Don has competed in the U.S. Senior Amateur and the British Senior Amateur. After Dartmouth Don attended Harvard Medical School and then served a year in Vietnam as a trauma physician.
