Class Note 1941

As of July we know that 42 of you and your wives (or guests) have already made reservations to attend our class of 1941 big 70th reunion in Hanover from September 30 to October 2. Some 10 more of you indicated that you might possibly come as well! That will make a fine showing of American nonagenarian power! There will be much to tell you and show you of what is going on at the College. It may be hard for some of you to recognize all of the new structures on campus and in town. You won’t believe the rush-hour traffic! Alas, as might be expected, obituaries for the class of 1941 are coming in all too fast. Our latest reported losses are of George Simpson and Ed Tanzi, both at age 92. However, the last census reveals that the present U.S. centenarians (estimated at 70,490 on September 1, 2010) are projected to at least double again by 2020, perhaps even increase seven-fold, according to the Census Bureau. So, stay well!
