1951

Bob Pack (Condon, Montana) was greatly influenced by Robert Frost during his undergraduate years at dartmouth. Bob’s 23rd volume of poetry, To Love That Well, has just been published by Lost Horse Press (available from Amazon). This fall he began his 60th year of teaching, having held distinguished professorships at Barnard College, Middlebury and now the University of Montana, Missoula. He has been widely honored as a “weaver of words.” In 1991 Bob received Dartmouth's gold medal for outstanding leadership and achievement.

Following 38 years on the mathematics facul- ty at Georgia Tech, Roger Johnson (Atlanta) spends time in retirement working to promote good en- vironmental policy and practice within the state. Particularly effective has been the georgia Water Coalition, with more than 200 member organiza- tions. Roger and Joan summer at a 200-year-old family home in Boscawen, New Hampshire, al- lowing regular visits to Hanover, where they reune with old roomie Charlie Russell and Peggy Read.

Our class was well represented at Bob Fiertz’s summer memorial service. Bob’s lacrosse team- mates Jack Giegerich (Wayne, Pennsylvania) and Dick Mason (Severna Park, Maryland) were on hand along with Bob’s Thayer School classmate and frequent traveling buddy, Jack Woods (Pea- pack, New Jersey).

Jack Woods reports on a midlife career change in which he left the world of engineering, acquired a Ph.D. in finance at NYU and taught at Fairleigh Dickinson University. He says, “Teach- ing and academic life in general were exhilarat- ing and rewarding experiences.” In retirement, photography and travel have been major interests; he and Sue made four trips to France with the Fiertzes.

Jim Rogers (Minnetonka, Minnesota) has been a driving force in building the Dartmouth Club of the Midwest’s scholarship fund, which now generates $225,000 per year in support of 14 current students.

one of the longest-running (11 years), most hotly-contested class of ’51 golf outings matched Al Brout (White Plains, New York), Don Dworken (Greenwich, Connecticut) and Bob Hopkins (Darien, Connecticut) again this summer. Score- cards aren’t kept but this spry threesome com- pleted the round in less than four hours, despite strict enforcement of a no-gimme rule.

Sad news from Chattanooga, Tennessee: Jim Robinson died on July 17 after a long illness.
