Class Note 1957
Issue
November-December 2021
A previous column mentioned Garvey Clarke. Mike Lasser immediatelyresponded: “Garvey’s laugh,” he said, “rich, genuine and frequent, is one of our class treasures.” Voila! A new column was born.
Bob Marchant’s class treasure is coaches. He named Eddie Jeremiah and Ellie Noyes in particular and recalls lavish praise for “Doggie” Julian from Ron Judson, Chick Winslow, and Skip Bohn, and he remembers Gene Booth called Coach Julian his “life teacher.” Bruce Bernstein recalls Karl Michaels’ impact on Dave Cook, and Cal Perry credits Tommy Dent’s influence for his four seasons in soccer and lacrosse.
John Lange’s class treasure is Paul Zeller, who represented Dartmouth to the world through music, while Jay Greene’s is the faculty that taught us. Bob Mowbray named the Appalachian Trail as his treasure, eliciting agreement from a number of classmates. Bob Copeland, in particular, offered personal accounts of the significance of this choice: some 18 cabins and 110 miles of trail maintained by the DOC and cutting right through the center of campus. The trail prompted Bob to add Ross McKenney, builder of snowshoes, cabins, canoes, and men, to our list of coaches and life teachers.
Bob Adelizzi, while giving a shout-out to Joel Levy, named our 50th reunion book, Return to the Source, as our class treasure. His pick had me scurrying to find my copy. Tom Schwarz was the editor and it is a gem, indeed.
The final choice comes from Charles Tseckares,who selected the bells of Baker Library. Charles remembers the bells’ routine in starting and ending our days at Dartmouth. In an article for his community’s quarterly magazine in Bedford, Massachusetts, he confessed to missing the structure the bells provided and recalled that after many years, he returned to Hanover to attend a seminar at Tuck. Monday morning arrived and he was awakened by the bells of Baker. “At that instant,” he wrote, “I realized I had come home.”
All winners. From coaches, teachers, and a classmate’s smile to the Appalachian Trail, our reunion book, and the bells of Baker—whatever your treasure, hear the bells, return to the source.
