Petra and John Hoskins (Gahanna, Ohio) and Nan and Dick Pugh (Thousand Oaks, California) are among the early birds reporting their plans to be in Hanover for our fall mini-reunion (September 25-27). It’s always a delightful time, with fall colors, football and a lei- surely pace that’s perfect for unhurried conversa- tions with classmates. Come on back!

Shirl and Howie Reynolds (Hamilton, New York) have enjoyed the many advantages of living in a small college town. Howie taught experimen- tal psychology at Colgate University for more than 30 years and stayed on in retirement to enjoy facul- ty friends, theater and musical performances and a rich array of campus offerings. He did graduate study at Rutgers, Syracuse and UC Berkeley. Two sons and a granddaughter have gone to Dartmouth.

Life in college communities (Yale, Univer- sity of Connecticut, University of Florida) has also appealed to Ann and John Ives. Along with cultural offerings they have especially enjoyed a butterfly museum and intercollegiate athletics. Golf is a special favorite. John was a prominent hospital administrator and also taught in this field. In retirement he took up mediation and continues to “help out in a small way” in the Gainesville, Florida, court system.

Buck Scott (Wynnewood, Pennsylvania) writes a periodic newsletter that I enjoy. Canusa- mex (a contraction of the names of the three North American countries) is a testament to Buck’s wide- ranging curiosity and active mind. A recent issue covers topics from cheap gasoline to Pennsylvania politics to Mayan ruins. Buck’s long-standing in- terest in international affairs is stimulated by two of his kids, who live in Beijing and Hong Kong.

Another internationalist, Dick Halloran (Ho- nolulu, Hawaii), worries about the mutual lack of understanding between China and the United States. “American ignorance of China is marked,” he observes, “but Chinese ignorance of America is monumental and is a source of great danger.” Dick lives 18 miles from Pearl Harbor, so the risks of miscalculation are close to home. He continues to write about this and other topics that interest him.

We report with sadness the recent deaths of four more classmates: Neal Crampton, Larry Kin- namon, Bob Rutstein and Kevin Travers.
