1947

Your secretary is a scribe, not a novel- ist—hence the brevity of this column. Seventy years ago, in the summer of 1945, we celebrated V-E Day in May and V-J Day in August. Many were in the military and came back to resume their studies. With the incoming students, the existing student body and returning veterans with a wide spread in ages, the student body was a cosmopolitan group.

The sympathy of the class is offered to the families of classmates who passed away recently: Albert Burbank, April 25; Robert Fagerholm, March 23; Norman Falkin, April 23; Alfred Hill, March 23; Francis Mahoney, October 9, 2014; and George Swaye, March 20. Keep in touch.
