News is limited. Frank Weber, in submitting his class agent’s report to go with the minutes of our October meeting, explained his absence in Norwich, Vermont. He arrived in West Lebanon, New Hampshire, on the day of the meeting but felt so poorly that he headed home to Connecticut. A social call was received from Hank Brezinsky asking about Ham Chase’s absence in October. Hank and your writer for several years have been threatening to get together for dinner, since he lives but 20 miles to the west in East Berne, New York. Jim Rudolph sent a note asking whether our records showed that he had complied with our request for submission of curriculum vitae. No record was found and he is drafting same. In the Norwich Inn there is an interesting painting of Hanover done as though from an elevation over the C&G house at Main and Wheelock looking north. The date is estimated to be in the 1920s since it predates Baker Library. There was a church, south of Sanborn, which burned in 1934. The natural sciences building, Butterfield Hall, occupies the space for the western expanse of Baker and was demolished prior to 1928 and in turn was replaced by Silsby Hall. The sympathy of the class is offered to families and friends of recently deceased classmates Irving Chorney on May 22, 2009; George Duncan on June 28, 2009; Merritt Cornwell; and Sheldon Segal on October 16, 2009. Keep in touch.
