The mini-reunion at the Norwich Inn on October 21-23 saw 29 persons gathered for the cocktail party and dinner on the 22nd. On Friday night seven of us marched in the Dartmouth Night parade. An executive committee meeting was held on Friday, October 21, with seven in attendance. By agreement, decisions made were to be advisory subject to approval on the next meeting. Treasurer Joe Kurey presented details on our financial status and noted the dwindling treasury due to recent deaths and to a diminished percentage of survivors paying dues. He pointed out that we will be unable to maintain our present schedule of contributions to class projects. After discussion, starting in FY 2013, it was decided to continue to support the Presidential Intern from dues and to support other projects with any funds received in addition to dues. Dues will be increased by $10 per year at the same time. Another executive committee meeting was scheduled for April 25 at the Norwich Inn. Dr. Hardy Hendren proudly wore his original senior blazer to the October 22 dinner. He could issue a challenge to any other alumnus of our vintage to both fit into and to wear his original blazer.


The sympathy of the class is offered to the families of classmates who died recently: Hugh Chapin, October 12, 2011; Merritt Cornwell, September 31, 2009; George Duncan, June 2, 2009; Parker Hicks, November 26, 2011; Peter McGrath, October 27, 2011; Lawrence Steuber, April 22, 2011; Richard Stevenson, August 13, 2011; and Henry Torpey, April 6, 2011.


Alumni are asked to inform alumni records as well as the secretary of the death of a class member.


Keep in touch.
