Class Note 1971
Issue
Greetings from beautiful Lake Tahoe, California. Malcolm Jones took time out from his calls for the Dartmouth College Fund to report that on June 20 his godson Jared Harvey (son of our classmate Richard Harvey and his wife, Linda) married Karen Portal at his home in wine country. Malcolm performed the ceremony and hosted the family wedding with spouse Karen. Since the bride’s family is originally from Peru Malcolm had to include some Spanish in the ceremony. Jared teaches at the Landmark School in Beverly, Massachusetts. Malcolm also reported that he had a nice dinner recently with Willis and Peggy Newton. They both look great. Their son Andrew just finished his first year at the University of Miami. Willis continues to play golf quite well!
Willie Bogan was recently promoted to the position of corporate secretary at McKesson Corporation. Since joining McKesson in 2006 as associate general counsel and assistant corporate secretary, Willie has served as a key liaison between the company and the board of directors on corporate governance matters, provided sound corporate governance counseling to McKesson and has overseen stock plan administration, the stock transfer agent function and legal matters related to corporate subsidiaries. We need a lot more classmates like Willie to help guide corporate America.
Our own Jonathan Wolken and the world-famous Pilobolus group participated in a special celebration of the arts that was included as part of Jim Yong Kim’s inauguration as Dartmouth’s 17th president.
A number of classmates have been honored on the Green Alert web site (biggreenfootball.com), which is the unofficial best source for Dartmouth football news. The site lists the 50-year offensive and defensive teams for Dartmouth football. Included from our class were first-teamers Barry Brink, Murry Bowden and Willie Bogan. Bob Cordy, Jim Chasey and John Short were selected to the second team and Russ Adams, Jay Bennett and Bob Peters were honorable mentions. Not bad for one class out of 50.
I had a chance to have dinner with Pete “The Peddler” Elitzer and spouse Beth in New York City in October. Pete’s youngest daughter is a senior at Cornell. Pete’s apparel empire (Peter Harris Clothes) survived the downturn and he is now expanding from New York into New England.
John Colangelo took time out from his legal duties to play some golf (along with Bill Brooks and your Class Notes author) in Denver in September. The necessity for a resupply of balls was mitigated by the excellent food and adult beverages provided by our hosts, Jay Wright and Steve Bell (from younger Dartmouth classes), at the Denver Country Club.
For those of you hailing from Florida, Atlanta, Dallas or Denver the class is looking at putting together an annual dinner similar to those in New York City, San Francisco, Boston and Washington, D.C. Contact Greg Fell if you are interested in helping organize or attending.
CarniVail 2010 dates are Feb 26-28 so start planning now. Don’t forget to check out the class Web site (www.dartmouth.org/classes/71) and the Facebook group page. Keep the news coming.
