Class Note 1952
Issue
September-October 2024
Fall is such a beautiful time of the year in New England. It is a perfect time to be in Hanover. This fall there is another reason to visit—the Dartmouth-Penn football game on October 5. At this first Ivy League home game of 2024, Dartmouth will recognize the achievements of the late Eugene F. Teevens III ’79 by naming the field “Buddy Teevens Stadium at Memorial Field.” Buddy was the winningest football coach in Dartmouth history and an all-around solid citizen. This is also an honor for his Dartmouth family and, in a supporting way, our class and our classmate, the late Eugene F. Teevens II,Buddy’s father.Just three members of the class who were on the football team in our senior year are still with us: Jack Foster, John McDonald, and Jim Churchill. They must be especially proud. We have several endowed professorships with classmate names, thanks to their philanthropic support, and this is the third campus building or site to carry the family name of a member of our class. The other two are Parkhurst Hall and Bartlett Tower. Congratulations, once again, to Buddy and his family. Turning now to other news, there isn’t much. Our classmate contact list stands at about 100 and most contacts we have made recently reflect the nonagenarian lifestyle—happy or lucky to be here. We are also fortunate to have a sizable number of spouses and partners on our mailing list. We’d like to hear from you. We are sorry, however, to report the loss of three members of the class, Richard Hull, James “Skip” Meneely, and Deighton “Deke” Emmons.
