Class Note 1947

Issue

Jul - Aug 2012

Our 65th reunion, with us as guests of the College, is scheduled for September 14-16. Chairman Bob Kirsch notes that events will be centered around the Hanover Inn and Collis Center. He needs responses as to probable attendance. Returns indicate possibly 60 classmates and 40 wives.


The executive committee met at the Norwich Inn on April 25. Present were W. Hallager, J. Hayes, J. Kurey, R. Leary, D. Page, P. Segal, F. Sistare, D. Squire, J. Trethaway and reunion chair Kirsch. Business centered on the offer made by alumni relations to take over a major part of the treasurer’s duties, including recording income, paying bills and completing tax returns in return for a modest annual management fee. Joe Kurey would remain as assistant treasurer, with a representative of alumni relations named as treasurer. Statements would be available monthly. Alumni relations rep Ann Harvey made the presentation. After questions and discussion the committee recommends that the class adopt the change at the class meeting at the September reunion. The committee reaffirmed actions taken at the October meeting, in which financing for the presidential intern will come from class dues, while other projects will be funded from additional contributions. Dave Squire volunteered to serve on the Alumni Council as a representative of the senior classes. Alan Hall was named to replace George Bingham as memorial book program chairman.


Bob Kirsch returned from Florida in time to make the arrangements for our 65th. Joe Hayes, as usual, enjoyed the winter in Anguilla. Bill Hallager spent much of the winter in Denver with his daughter and her family.


The sympathy of the class is offered to the families of recently deceased classmates: Bob Foote, March 10; Paul Guilderson, January 17; and Joseph Jordan, January 12.


Keep in touch.
