Class Note 1967
Issue
May - Jun 2018
Here are some more answers to last issue’s invitation to describe a Dartmouth moment you wish you had a photo of.
Larry Fabian wishes he “had one standing with Bob Wood in front of the cute little house in Salzburg, Austria, with a sign announcing it as a maison de plaisir.” Bill Reynolds: “Beating a rug outside Richardson for an upperclassman with my beanie on, which as freshmen we did for the upperclassmen gods. At least it occupied me during my first stay away from home on my own.”
Don Garni: “On a road trip to Skidmore, Charlie Farnum was at his best and soon found himself handcuffed to a bar by its proprietor. By some sleight of hand or misdirection Ed Masters freed Charlie from his shackles, and we beat a quick retreat before the cavalry arrived. Ed and Charlie are now deceased, so I wish I also had a picture of them laughing as I write this.” Curt Anderson’s image: “Playing bass with The Renegades on campus and at colleges throughout New England in our blue blazers with gals all over us.” Joe Alviani: “The interfraternity track meet when Paul Killebrew shamed me into running a 440-yard race for Beta. I shot out of the blocks like lightning, led at 100 yards as Beta fans went wild and then collapsed with a thud at the 220-yard mark.” Andy Danver wants “a picture from the fall of 1965 of the bus carrying me and the football team being pounded on by students and townspeople alike as we headed down Main Street on our way down to beat Princeton!”
On February 3 a great turnout of ’67s celebrated the 34th Boston dinner at the Longwood Cricket Club, including Joe Alviani, Curt Anderson and Susanne McInerney, Wayne Beyer, Bill Bogardus, Larry and Sharleen Bowen, Jon Feltner, Mike and Eileen Gfroerer, Ed and Becky Gray, Chuck Hobbie, Paul and Joyce Killebrew, Eric Kintner, Bill and Anne Kirkpatrick, John and Pokey Kornet, Larry Langford and Candy Langan, Dave Larson, John and Cindy Lewis, Drew Ley and Carol Searle, Dwight and Joan MacKerron, John and Susan Manaras, John Manopoli and Margot Costa, Sam and Judy Ostrow, Bruce Pacht and Lori Fortini, Beth Paolino, Jim and Ann Paull, Tom and Carol Pyles, Jim and Corry Rooks, Lee Sillin, Nancy Smoyer, Sam Stonefield, Peter Thomas and Mary Lou Sottung, Bob and Sharie Thurer, Mike and Susan Tucker, Bill and Susie White. We also were joined by Jennifer Hardy, managing director of the Dartmouth College Fund. Her presence underscored head agent Joe Alviani’s message to all of us to step up and support the DCF this year!
Finally, we are sad to report that John Maguire Benzian died unexpectedly of a head injury on January 9 while visiting family in Carmel, California; Charles Bradford “Brad” Langley died unexpectedly on June 17, 2017, at his home in Ellicott City, Maryland; and Leland Francis Powers Jr. of Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, died on August 17, 2016.
