The ’54 New York City area luncheon, organized by Tony Kane, resumed on April 3. In attendance were Don Berlin, Bob Dean, Dick Danforth, John Fenn, Lyon Greenberg, Dave Levine, Steve Mullins and Tony Kane. Later that evening Shelly Woolf received the Stephen F. Mandel ’52 Society Award at a dinner at the Plaza Hotel in New York City. This award recognizes “volunteers who provide visionary leadership in raising gifts for Dartmouth through the Dartmouth College Fund.” Shelly is the second ’54 to receive this award: Dick Page was so honored last year. Classmates in attendance to honor Shelly were Tony Kane, Art Rauch, Don Brief, Dick Page, Don Berlin, Lyon Greenberg, Steve Mullins, Dick Barker, Jerry Goldstein, Mort Galper and Bob Dean.


Peter Kenyon and his committee (Bob Levine, Dan McCarthy, Jon Moore and Tony Kane) have continued their excellent work on the ’54 internship program. The class sponsors five internships and an athletic sponsorship. Each year recipients are named in memory of deceased classmates. The 2014 internships are named in memory of the following: Kenneth M. Pulley and Robert Clements, Dickey Center internships; Dwight H. Ketelhut, Nelson Rockefeller Center internship; Everett T. Rattray, Tucker Foundation internship; Perry J. Davis, Dartmouth Partners in Community Service internship; and Chester H. Edlund, the ’54 athletic sponsorship. The recipients will be announced formally this spring.


We sadly report the passing of Richard Steinberg, John Gillespie, Peter Johnson and Donald Keller.
