A special thank you to Dave Mandelbaum, who chaired this event.


We received a note from Jack Feldman informing us that he will retire from the banking business at the end of 2012 and that he will be ready for the 81st celebration. In order to make traveling easier for Jack, Jay Davis and Steve Mullins have planned a mini-reunion in Santa Fe and Taos, New Mexico, from May 14 to May 19, 2013. Notify Jay Davis (jdmd@valley.net) of your interest.


Peter Kenyon and his committee announced our 2012 interns. Marissa Lynn ’13 will be the Daniel Clark Murphy ’54 Dickey Center intern, Abderahmane Sow ’15 will be the Robert V. Berry ’54 Tucker Foundation intern, Alexis Zauras ’13 will be the John G. Christy ’54 Rockefeller intern and Joanna Schneider ’13 will be the Walter Clarkson Jr. ’54 Dartmouth Partners in Community Service intern.


Those of you who watched Law & Order on TV on May 23 may have thought that the governor looked familiar. That is because he was W. Griffith Barker (the stage name of Pete Barker).


We sadly report the passing of Bob Berry, Hap Winslow, Ed Scott and John Shenefield.
