Our 65th reunion on September 14-16 was a big success and was attended by 45 classmates and 42 guests who enjoyed the program arranged by Bob and Abbie Kirsch and the facilities of the renovated Hanover Inn. Highlights were former President Wright’s talk on “War Veterans and American Society,” the Saturday night football game, Alan Hall’s lighthearted reminiscences on Dartmouth when we entered college, and Alan Epstein’s thoughtful remarks on deceased classmates at the Sunday memorial service. In the service program we were reminded of the 86 classmates who passed away since our last reunion. At the class meeting the slate presented by nominating committee chair Phil Segal was accepted. There being no additional nominees, there were elected by acclamation president John Threthaway, VP and mini-reunion chair Joe Haynes, secretary Donald Page, assistant treasurer Joe Kurey, newsletter editor Fred Sistare, memorial book program chair Alan Hall, bequest chair Alan Epstein, head agent Frank Weber and additional executive committee members G. Bingham, H. Chase, R. Dodson, W. Hallagher, Joan (Mrs. Townes) Harris, H. Hendren, R. Kirsch, R. Leary, L. Reed, P. Segal, D. Squire and B. Zuckernick. 


Class Officers Weekend on September 28-29 was attended by President Trethaway and bequest chair A. Epstein, who heard of the progress in the selection of a new president of the College. 


The sympathy of the class is offered to the families of classmates who died recently: Robert Cook, April 16, 2012; Charles Prestipino, June 21, 2012; and Richard Stoecker, November 19, 2010. 


Happy holidays and keep in touch.
