COLLEGE

Diversity Is Hallmark of Freshman Class •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• When Donald N. Dietrich describes the Class of 1991, he sounds like the proud parent of 453 teenagers. "My sense is that they're a strong group of students intellectually," the director of admissions says with a smile. "They're more interesting, more diverse, and they're talented in areas other than academics."

Dietrich is understandably pleased with this year's freshman class, which was born of a recruiting effort filled with successes. The largest applicant pool in the history of the College yielded a class that is more geographically diverse than its predecessors: students hail from 36 states plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, and 17 are from foreign countries. The Class of 1991 is also more racially diverse, says Dietrich. It includes 77 minority students, nearly twice the 39

who enrolled last fall. "Within the structure of the class, it was our goal to increase the number of minority students," Dietrich says in recalling the recruitment effort that produced the impressive statistic. "We wanted, for example, to double the number ofblack students from 14 to 28. In fact, we ended up enrolling 35 black students. That's more than ever. In a day and age when there are fewer and fewer minority students from which to choose, that's very good."

RAIN FAILED TO DAMPEN the spirits of incoming freshmen and their families as Trinity began its 165th year by enrolling one of the most diverse classes in the history of the College.

ALONG THE WALK

Competition for top minority students is increasingly stiff among institutions ofTrinity's caliber, says Dietrich. An illustration of this was the application ofRuthia Balfour, a minority student who graduated from Hartford's Weaver High School in June. Balfour weighed offers of admission from Dartmouth, Yale and Wesleyan before deciding to enroll at Trinity. According to Karen Mapp '77, assistant director of admissions, Trinity's success in enrolling minority students was the result of several tactics. And although her primary responsibility is minority recruitment, Mapp attributes achievement in this area to a total staff effort. "We honed in on different schools, especially in large urban areas," Mapp explains. "We talked to specific minority students; we focused on the Hartford area. In general, we became more visible among minority students." Trinity held a Minority Weekend last fall that attracted more than 100 students, 38 percent of whom applied for admission. The College also used two search services to pinpoint candidates. "As we continue to do well, word is going to spread," says Dietrich. This will aid in the continued success of minority recruitment, something the College has deemed important, he adds. "We're trying to create a mix of students, which contributes to the learning process," says Dietrich. "We're trying to get students from different backgrounds. That's really important, because I'm convinced they learn as much from each other as they do in the classroom." Dietrich says the academic standard of the incoming class was generally maintained. Combined Scholastic Aptitude Test scores were 1180 -slightly lower than the 1210 oflast year's freshmen. A recruiting season that shifted the College's pattern of visiting, employed more alumni admissions volunteers, and expanded use of the College Board's search service brought in students from a broader geographic area than in the past. The Class was less dependent on what Dietrich calls the "big five": Connecticut, New York, New

Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts. While still the largest suppliers of students, these states were followed by Maryland, California, Illinois, Florida, Maine, the District of Columbia, Texas, and Virginia in the highest concentrations of students. The Class of 1991 comprises 231 men and 222 women. Public school graduates make up 49.4 percent of the Class (up 2 percent from last year); independent school graduates, 43.4 percent (about the same as last year); and parochial school graduates, 7.1 percent (down 2.1 percent). Alumni offspring number 35 and alumni siblings 25, about even with last year's statistics. Candidates who declined Trinity's offer of admission chose to attend some of the most selective institutions in the country. Top competitors this year were Tufts, Brown, Colgate, Georgetown, Penn, Middlebury, Wesleyan, and Yale. "We took as many from Tufts as they took from us," Dietrich says. "We took some from Yale; we took some from Amherst. It was a good year."

Alumni Network Bolsters Student Career Decisions •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Choosing a career can be a tough job, but Trinity students looking for advice have a friend in the business almost any business. Trinity's Alumni Career Advisory Network refers students making career choices to alumni volunteers willing to share their business and professional experiences. Administered jointly by the Career Counseling and Alumni Relations offices, the network currently offers students access to nearly 500 graduates employed in 28 fields, from advertising and the arts to finance and computer science. It also lists about 50 alumni enrolled in graduate and professional schools. "We have a large information base here in the Career Counseling Office," says Director Rozanne F. Burt, "but our students go into so many different fields. While I know a lot, I can't know everything. Plus, by talking with an

alumnus, students are not only getting information but someone's opinion. It's personalized." Trinity started a career network in the late '70s when it published a nationwide directory of alumni advisers. Burt says that directory was an excellent base for this new network, which has more geographic and occupational focus. The new service targets volunteers in the Northeast corridor from Boston to Washington and in Chicago, areas where students are most likely to start their careers. This change, she says, increases the possibility that volunteers will actually be contacted by students and makes the annual updating of adviser information a manageable task. "The first volunteers we solicited were from the Classes of 1982 to 1985, the young alumni network," Burt says. "From my point of view, this is an important group because students can call someone who has been through the career-search process recently." For instance, young alumni often can provide students with up-to-date information about company training programs, she says. "The second group of volunteers came from the Classes of 1960 to 1970," Burt continues. "In this group we wanted to get people with seasoned careers: vice presidents and presidents. It's not every day that someone has the chance to call a person at that level." The office is now searching for advisers from a third group of alumni, those in the Classes of 1971 to 1981. Among the current advisers is Jennifer Prost '82, associate director of publicity at Farrar, Straus and Giroux in New York City. Prost says she has received several telephone calls from students asking her for tips on breaking into the publishing field. "A lot of people don't know how to get into editorial work," Prost says. "They know if you go to law school you'll be a lawyer; if you go to medical school, you'll be a doctor. But what do you do to get into publishing?" Prost says she considered a career in editorial work during her years at Trinity. Her interest in the field intensified when she spoke with an alumna

she says, are as enthusiastic about it as the students. "Advisory relationships are a twoway street," Burt says. "They give people a chance to reflect on what they've done, and most people like to offer their opinions and advice. "From our standpoint, the volunteers are making an extremely important contribution to the College," she adds. "It's a fabulous adjunct to the Career Counseling Office: not just an adjunct, really, but an important part of our work." Alumni interested in becoming advisers or using the network should contact the Career Counseling Office for more information.

at career day at the College. "That was the first time I really started talking to someone about it," says Prost. "That worked for me, and the career network offers students a similar kind of contact." Burt stresses that use of the network is strictly by referral. Students contact alumni advisers only after consulting with career counselors and collecting information about career fields in which they are interested. They are not allowed to ask alumni to find jobs for them or to intervene if they have an interview with an adviser's company. Use of the service is not restricted to students. George Fraise '86, who plans to go into the investment field, was working in retail management on Long Island when he called several career advisers to ask what they thought he

should do before entering business school in September 1988. "I thought working for a Wall Street investment firm might be profitable for business school," explains Fraise, who now is a securities analyst at the brokerage firm of Drexel Burnham Lambert. "I used the network to contact people currently in business school to look at what they'd done before entering, and it helped me a great deal. They said that ifi wanted to work on Wall Street that was fine, but it didn't really matter what I did as long as I did it well. "It helped to know what they went through," he adds. "They gave me some first-hand knowledge of some graduate programs, as well." Burt says positive responses to the network are plentiful. The volunteers,

The Campaign for Trinity concluded its first year in September with more than $29 million in gifts and pledges. Among recent gifts to the College were $300,000 from The Travelers Companies Foundation (see related article); $150,000 from the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving; $100,000 from Connecticut Bank and Trust; $50,000 from Dexter Corp. ofWindsor Locks; and $24,000 from KamanCorp. ofBloomfield. The Campaign .goal is to raise $42 million over three years. The Watkinson Library will be the beneficiary of the gift from the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving. This grant will replace the heating and air conditioning system, which is crucial to the preservation ofbooks and other materials in the library. Connecticut National Bank and Dexter Corp. made their gifts to financial aid. Their funds helped Trinity obtain a challenge grant from The George I. Alden Trust ofWorcester, MA. The Alden Trust agreed to give Trinity $100,000 if the College raised an additional $200,000. The $200,000 goal was surpassed with proceeds from a student auction held in the spring and with gifts from alumni. Kaman Corp.'s gift will go toward

Annual Fund Drive Underway ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• An ambitious goal of 46% participation in the Alumni Fund portion of the 198788 Annual Fund is a key feature of the drive now underway, according to Kathleen L. Frederick '71, director of annual giving. Frederick said the participation

goal represents an eight percent increase over that achieved in the 1986- 87 drive, which, in turn, was a six percent increase over the previous year. The goal represents a step in the direction of a longterm goal of 50% participation by 1990. Jason M. Elsas '58 will again head up a team of volunteers in the $1,965,000Annual Fund drive. The goals for the four components of the Annual Fund are: Alumni Fund, $1,450,000; Parents Fund, $215,000; Friends Fund, $100,000; and Business and Industry Associates, $200,000. Assisting Elsas in the fund drive will be Alumni Fund Chairman Stephen H. Lockton '62 of Greenwich, CT. Patricia Ewert of New York, NY, mother of Alexandra '90, will chair the Parents·Fund, assisted by John K. Webster ofSurmnit, NJ, father ofJohn '90, as vice chairman. Trustee William R. Peelle will again head the Business and Industry Associates drive. The Friends Fund will be led by T. ~tchell Ford, Hon. '81.

Travelers Gift Supports Computer Facilities, Student Research ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• A $300,000 gift from The Travelers Companies Foundation has initiated a new partnership focused on computer software training and research at Trinity. Most of the grant, $265,000, will be used to construct a computer science and software engineering laboratory in the $6 million academic building that is now on the drawing board. The remaining portion will create an endowment fund to support student research and reward the best work with an annual prize. "Optimizing the use of computers and fostering a technologically advanced business climate is a top priority ofThe Travelers," says Joseph T. Brophy, the company's senior vice president of data processing. "By supporting computer facilities and programs at Trinity, we hope to encourage the students to use technology to their advantage during their studies and in preparation for their careers."

"It seems clear that The Travelers and Trinity share a common objective, namely educating men and women to become good and useful citizens of the world," says President James F. English, Jr. "We hope that companies like The Travelers can benefit from the knowledge and skills gained by our students in the years to come." The gift is part ofThe Campaign for Trinity, a three-year, $42 million fundraising effort that was announced in September 1986. To date, The Campaign has raised more than $29 million in gifts and pledges. To complement its financial support, The Travelers is establishing a working partnership with Trinity to assist in the design of the laboratory and in the supervision of some student research. The Travelers planners will consult with faculty and the building's architects to ensure that the design and equipment of the computer laboratory can accommodate future advances in technology. In addition, the company's data processing staff will work with Trinity students who choose to do their senior research projects in the setting ofThe Travelers offices. The staff also will join a new Trinity faculty committee charged with choosing the most outstanding senior researcher. "Through both the financial support and a working partnership, we hope to show that industry and educators can collaborate in developing young people's ability to succeed in the workplace," says Ernest L. Osborne, president of The Travelers Companies Foundation. "By encouraging students to develop the skills that business will need, we also hope to secure a brighter future for the region's economy."

such collaboration in the future. According to Naomi Amos, 'faculty grants officer, the grant of $120,625 by Connecticut High Technology Research and Development Grant Program shows promise for future efforts involving Trinity faculty and Connecticut business and industry. This grant, which will be matched by Biodyne funds in the amount of $129,315, involves the development of a respiration monitor for patients at risk. Bronzino, who is professor of engineering and computer science and Vernon Roosa Professor of Applied Science, will work closely with Biodyne Chairman James A. Walls on the project. Recently, Biodyne developed a device to assist clinicians monitoring children at risk for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. This research project will expand on that development, with the ultimate goal being the development of a portable device utilizing microcomputer technology capable of quantifying respiration parameters for patients in a variety of clinical areas. Examples would be intensive care units, cardiac

care units, and the surgical recovery room. One application of the device in this study is its use in monitoring the effect of epidural narcotics which depress respiration rates in women undergoing Caesarean section operations. The detection of maternal respiratory depression by a monitor would allow clinicians to reverse the condition with the use of appropriate drugs. The duration of the grant for this study is 15 months. Since September Bronzino has also been collaborating with Dr. Janina R Galler ofBoston University and has recently been notified that their proposed study dealing with "Maternal Protein Deprivation and Mental Retardation" has been awarded a three-year grant for more than $429,000 in funding from the National Institute of Child and Human Development. The project represents a continuation of Bronzino's research at the Neurophysiology Division ofWorcester Foundation for Experimental Biology with Dr. Peter Morgane. A focus of their research over the past 15 years has been

directed towards study of the effect of prenatal protein malnutrition on the developing brain. That research is now reorganized within the medical center at Boston University, where Galler is director of the Center for Behavioral Development and Mental Retardation of the Boston University School of Medicine. Galler has studied the intergenerational effects of malnutrition on long-term growth and behavior of animals and human beings. From an 18-year study of children in Barbados, she has reported that ongoing undernutrition affects long-term learning and behavior and that the effects of malnutrition may not disappear when the child is eventually fed a normal diet. The author of 60 articles and three books, Technology for Patient Care (C.V. Mosby, 1977) and Computer Applications for Patient Care (Addison-Wesley, 1982), and Biomedical Engineering Basic Concepts and Instrumentation (PWS Publications, 1986), Bronzino founded the joint Trinity CollegeHartford Graduate Center Program in Biomedical Engineering and has been its director for the past 18 years. In 1974, he developed the Clinical Engineering Internship Program in the region of greater Hartford, which involves Hartford Hospital, the Saint Francis Hospital and Medical Center and the University of Connecticut Health Center.

Memorial Fund Honors Clarence Watters •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

An endowment fund has been established at Trinity in memory of Clarence Watters, former professor of music emeritus, and his wife, Marjorie. Started with contributions principally from the couple's son and two daughters, The Clarence E. and Matjorie S. Watters Fund will be used to support programs and projects related to organ music at Trinity. Professor Watters served as chairman of the music department at Trinity and as College organist from 1932 to 196 7. He also designed the College organ, which was built in 1971, and a carved profile portrait of him is seen over the console, in the beautiful, new organ case completed last spring. Watters was a special guest at the dedication ceremony for the new organ case in May, 1986. He died in July of that year. Income from the Watters Fund will be used for sponsoring recitals and/or master classes by leading outside organists; funding improvements and repairs of the Chapel organs; and other purposes "which will enhance and continue the standards and traditions of musicianship, especially as they relate to organ performance, of Clarence Watters." Initially, the College will use the income for support of the annual organ recital series and identify one or more of the recitals, as appropriate, as a "Clarence Watters Memorial Recital." Watters was a leading exponent in this country of the work of noted composer and organist Marcel Dupre, with whom he studied in Paris in the 1920s. In a special issue in 1986 marking the

centennial ofDupre's birth, The American Organist saluted Watters "for his 65 years of distinguished recitals (in which he never used a score) and especially for his devotion to Marcel Dupre, whose works he performed with peerless technique and elegant musicianship ." Contributions for the Watters Fund may be made to Trinity College and sent to: The Watters Fund, Development Office, Trinity College, Hartford, CT 06106, attention: Grace Wehnau.

Hungary 8[. Roman1a

SNARLED TRAFFIC in Budapest (above) is a far cry from this muddy country road in the Romanian countryside.

BY ROBERT A. BATTIS

t had been nineteen years since I had last toured through the capitals of mos~ of the Easter_n Bloc co~mtries. That t~ip was made a year pnor to the Sov1et repressiOn ofDubcek s Economic Reforms in Czechoslovakia and Janos Kadar's introduction of Hungary's New Economic Mechanism (NEM). In Romania, Ceausecu had just commenced Romania's struggle to escape Soviet hegemony, while Bulgaria had bowed to Khrushchev's plan of economic integration and had recently reduced its plans for industrialization and diverted more investment funds to agriculture. With such changes in mind, it was my expectation that a similar journey would provide a variety of significant impressions of current economic conditions and an opportunity to observe some of the objective evidence of the economic growth that had taken place in the intervening years. With luggage, camera, passport and six visas in hand, I commenced the 3,600-kilometer journey on October 4. The route which began in Ljubljana, Yugoslavia offered a vast array of scenic views as we crossed the Julian Alps to the Austrian countryside, then over the plains of Hungary to the Carpathian mountains in Transylvania, through the Balkan mountains in Bulgaria to our final destination, Dubrovnik, on the beautiful Dalmation coast. In each city there were ancient cathedrals, palaces or castles to visit, fortress walls or walled towns as well as mosques and minarets to photograph. But most important there were the opportunities to observe the conditions of life of the citizens in each of the socialist economies. Through "shopping" tours in state stores, cooperatives and the peasant free markets, it was possible to gain some impressions of the quality, quantity and variety of consumer goods available, such as foodstuffs, houseware items and clothing. Tours of the city environs offered evidence of the types and quality of public and private transportation and invariably a quick view of industrial activity and construction projects.

Professor Robert A. Battis, a specialist in comparative economic systems, economic history and socialism, has taught at Trinity for 28 years. A graduate of Rutgers, he earned his M.A . and Ph.D. degrees from New York University and served on the faculties of Muhlenberg, Lehigh and Lafayette before coming to Trinity.

HUNGARY & ROMANIA

In traveling across the highways in the rural areas, it was evident that in most instances, with the exception of Austria's subdivided fields and varied crops, the socialist state or cooperative farms tended to cultivate vast expanses ofland with single crops of grain, sunflowers, corn, sugar beets or hay. Instead of individual farmsteads, more frequently the farmers lived in villages, their houses and barns clustered along the roadways or at the end of unsurfaced often muddy roads, some distance from the main highway. The highways we followed were usually two-lane surfaced roads. The very few four-lane, divided highways traveled were rather short ones (about 100 km) radiating from the capital cities, Prague, Budapest, Bucharest and Sofia. The longest such highway connected Prague with Bratislava, close to the Austrian border, a distance of300 km. One learned very quickly that traveling in the Eastern Bloc countries was quite unlike touring through Western Europe. There had been little bureaucratic surveillance in crossing the border between Yugoslavia and Austria, but in our crossing from Austria to Czechoslavakia and at the borders between the other East European countries there was a calculated delay of several hours. At every border, forms had to be filled out, visas collected, passports stamped and luggage examined in a slow and methodical manner. The most difficult border inspections occurred on entering and exiting Romania. At each customs station, lines of automobiles, trucks and busses were delayed for hours awaiting a careful examination by crews of rather zealous customs officials. Every automobile was emptied of its contents; passengers, baggage;, trunk interiors, motors, door panels and seats were carefully scrutinized for a variety of illicit commodities, including books, religious literature, newspapers, drugs, "excess" supplies of foodstuffs and Romanian lei. Almost without exception, Romanians and foreigners alike had stocked their trunks with food supplies of some sort, including loaves of bread, but more of that later. Accommodations in each of the major cities, with the exception ofRomania, were provided in new hotels, quite modern in design, with richly appointed public rooms, elevators that responded to the push of a button and toilet facilities that would have satisfied most U .S. tourists. Invariably these hotels had been built after 1967, under a system ofjoint ventures, usually involving American or European hotel chains. The very elegant Panorama Hotel in Prague, was built with Yugoslav assistance. In Budapest, along the Danube River embankment, there were three major hotels, built as joint ventures by Western hotel chains,

the Forum (British) the Hyatt and The Intercontinental (U.S.). Each hotel offered magnificent views of the Danube River, its bridges and Castle Hill in Buda. There on Castle Hill, next to the Coronation Church, was the Hilton Hotel and Casino (U.S.) overlooking Pest. In Bucharest, the new Bucharesti Hotel dominated the main shopping street, and the Hotel Vitosha (Japanese), in Sofia, included saunas, swimming pool and facilities for simultaneous translation in six languages. All business transactions in the Vitosha were conducted in hard currency, an obvious means of excluding the ordinary Bulgarian citizen. Of the myriad impressions gathered in the threeweek trip through these countries, the most striking were the contrasts of consumer well-being in Hungary and Romania. Though both countries have highly centralized, hierarchically organized state governments and economic systems, with political power monopolized by a single Marxist-Leninist party, the conditions of life in Hungary appeared to be in sharp contrast to life in Romania. Under Janos Kadar, Hungary's party boss, a series of incremental economic reforms had been instituted over the nineteen years. These measures had stimulated peasant initiative, legalized the "gray markets" in . services and retail trade, increased the autonomy of

enterprise managers and opened Hungary to the competitive pressures of international trade. At the time of the visit, Hungary was suffering a period of economic austerity, a consequence of a foreign trade deficit, a short supply of hard currency reserves, high rates of interest, and high prices of oil imported from the Soviet Union. Also, the agricultural sector had suffered through two years of drought and agricultural exports were faced with severe competition with common market surplus crops. Despite the economic difficulties, Budapest's shops were filled with a wide variety of very fashionable clothing items, Italian shoes, and Japanese electronic goods. Both state and co-op stores displayed an abundant supply of good quality fresh fruits, vegetables, meats and fish. There were no queues outside shops, but each morning and evening there was bumper to bumper commuter traffic across the Danube bridges. Also, though the state continues to control the press and political dissent, it was possible to buy foreign newspapers, magazines and journals at local newsstands. In traveling over the Hungarian Plains toward Romania, it was evident that the typical farm cooperative cultivated an extensive amount ofland and utilized a wide variety of machines; harvesters, cultivators, tractors and trucks, to accomplish its tasks. Such practices have helped to make Hungary one of the most productive agricultural countries in Europe, a country which can feed its own population and export some part of its produce to the U.S.S.R. and the West to earn much-needed hard currency. In Romania, on the other hand, President Nicolae Ceausescu, operated the economy under a system of strict central planning, and tried to maintain a policy of economic autarchy. His industrial planning had emphasized high-energy-cost industries, which was in direct contrast to Hungary's mode of operation. However, as in Hungary, Romania was faced with a foreign trade deficit and a shortage ofhard currency reserves. Its rather large foreign debt had been incurred in better times, when Western banks had OPEC dollars to recycle at low rates of interest, and Soviet oil prices for CMEA (Council for Mutual Economic Assistance) countries were held below world market prices. The borrowed funds had been utilized to build refineries, petro-chemical plants and steel mills, which were completed at about the time the world faced an excess of such plants. Ceausescu's economic plans gave little attention to diverting resources for improving productivity in agriculture or building electricity generating facilities. Now, with its own domestic oil reserves dwindling, the price of Soviet oil above world market prices (paid in dollars), high interest rates and a growing trade deficit, Romanian citizens were being subjected to a

dramatic reduction in their standard of living, while large quantities of domestically produced meat and vegetables were being exported as a means ofliquidating the trade deficit. Consequently, ersatz coffee is substituted for imported coffee beans, and black pepper is no longer imported. Supplies of chocolate, rice, cheese, butter and sugar are critically short and cooking oil, meat, flour and bread are rationed. Frequently, however, supplies do not match the official rations, thus queues are to be seen outside bakeries, meat stores and grocery shops, from early morning to dark. Despite domestic production of about 12 million tons of oil each year, gasoline is rationed and automobile owners are forbidden to use their vehicles in the winter months. Public transit buses, many designed to utilize methane as a source of energy, are crowded to overflowing. Because the planners have neglected the production of electric energy, there are frequent "brownouts." Further, households limited to one light outlet per room with bulbs having a maximum of forty watts are compelled to live in dimly lighted rooms . As night falls in Romania, villages and cities are plunged into darkness. Shopping in Bucharest's retail stores, one is struck by the limited supplies and varieties of clothing, shoes, household items and durable goods, most of poor quality and design. Even the peasant fruit and vegetable markets, unlike peasant markets in other socialist countries, offered limited supplies and poor quality products but had queues waiting to buy some of the

limited supply. Occasionally common food items such as canned meat, sugar, cooking oil and flour are available in hard currency stores, but Romanians are not allowed to hold foreign currencies. Despite such restrictions, the tourist is frequently accosted, on the main streets ofBucharest, by black market money dealers who offer an exchange oflei for dollars six times the official rate. There was also evidence that American filter cigarettes functioned as money in exchanges for services and goods. Though there had been a shortage of resources for investment in agriculture and the production of electric energy, there seemed to be no shortage of resources for the construction of a massive, yet incomplete, irrigation project, as well as the simultaneous construction in Bucharest, of a subway system and a grandiose building project for new government offices and a state palace for the President, a monument to the Ceausescu's regime. In the Romanian countryside, the outward signs of coercive control over production, shortages of chemical fertilizers, and agricultural machinery could be seen in the condition of the fields, the quality of the crops and conditions oflabor. It has been reported that because of the government's restrictions on the agricultural sector many farmers had abandoned farming which necessitated the use of forced labor drawn from the army, the universities and secondary schools. Instead ofharvesting machinery in the corn or sugar beet fields, there were literally hundreds of laborers with sickles or pitchforks and machetes harvesting the crops, while horses and wagons substituted for trucks and tractors. The consequences of such farming practices are delays in harvesting and low productivity. In the two countries, Hungary and Romania, there are seemingly dramatic differences in the economic well being of their citizens. These differences become even more striking when one compares the resource base of the two economies. Hungary has half the population of Romania, half as much cultivable land area, a smaller, though probably a more skilled labor force, fewer energy resources and raw materials, yet it operates at a higher level of productivity and presents the outward appearance of providing its citizens a better standard ofliving. The two countries have similar political systems, and economic systems based on socialist principles. There is a difference, however, in economic organizations, incentive mechanisms and rewards which seem to produce quite different economic performances. It is in these differences that I will be able to take to the classroom important lessons. Through these apparent differences in the well being of the populations in the two economies, one can dramatize the impact that variations in economic systems have on economic performance. â&#x20AC;˘

AWARDS

Eigenbrodt Cup Award DAVID ROGER SMITH Class of 1952 Leadership, vigor, fair play and loyalty arc the qualities that best describe this alumnus from his undergraduate days through a business career ofhigh accomplishment. A campus leader- whose talents and discipline earned him nine letters in football , bask etball and baseball - he received his Trinity degree in history, followed by an M.B.A. from the Harvard Graduate School ofBusiness. After two years in the Air Force, he began a 26- year sales and marketing stint with National Blank Book Co. of Holyoke, Massachusetts. Along the way, he and his wife, Joan, also a Trinity alum, had the excitement of raising nine children, four of whom have already become alumni of this College. Salesmanship, indeed, begins at home. In 1982, he headed north to assume the presidency of Dennison Manufacturing in Ontario, Canada. Two years later he crossed the border again to become a partner of Andlinger & Co. of Tarrytown, New York. Despite these heavy business and family responsibilities, he has given full measure in service to his alma mater. A past president of the N ationa! Alumni Association, he has been chairman of his 20th reunion, a class agent, vice presi-

dent of the Trinity Club of Chicago, and chairman of the Springfield Region Campaign for Trinity Values. Currently he is serving a six-year term as Alumni Trustee. His faithful and distinguished service to the College has been recognized on previous occasions with the 150th Anniversary Award and the Alumni Medal for Excellence.

ith the adoption in April of a five-part distribution requirement, the faculty completed action on a comprehensive revision of the College's general education curriculum- the first such overhaul since 1969. Earlier, it had approved an innovative program of interdisciplinary minors and measures to ensure undergraduate proficiency in writing and basic mathmatics. The new curriculum, to take effect with the freshman class entering in the fall of 1988, marks a significant departure from the existing "open" curriculum, which specifies no requirements outside the student's major field. "These reforms represent the faculty's considered judgment ofhow liberal education is best defined at this college for a generation of students whose lives will extend well into the next century," commented President James F. English, Jr., who initiated the process of curricular revision in 1982. "They promise to ensure the continued quality and vitality of a Trinity education by introducing a necessary degree of curricular structure, while still leaving students ample freedom to shape programs of study

that address their individual interests and needs," he added. The centerpiece of the new curriculum is the requirement that every undergraduate complete an interdisciplinary minor in addition to a major. Members of the faculty are now at work developing approximately 20 of thes_e minors, so students will have an ample range of choices. Each minor consists of ari integrated sequence of six courses drawn from at least three different academic fields and focusing on a common theme or issue. Underlying the program of minors, according to one of its architects, Associate Academic Dean J. Ronald Spencer, "is the concern that too many students approach their non-m~or studies with a kind of tunnel vision, rarely giving thought to how a particular course can be related to other courses and especially to those in other fields . By systematically exploring connections among different courses and disciplines, the minors should help counteract this piecemeal approach to learning." Professor ofHistory Borden W. Painter, who was serving as Dean of the Faculty when the minors were approved in March, 1986, said that they would provide students with a "structured means oflearning how the insights and methods of diverse disciplines can be used to elucidate complex subjects and issues. Thus, they will better prepare students for life and work in a complex society that increasingly demands interdisciplinary solutions." A diverse group of interdisciplinary minors will be offered, and faculty in all the academic departments~ are contributing to the program. For instance, an Americap historian, a philosopher and two engineers are designing a minor entitled The Nature cif the Technological World. A minor in Medieval and Renaissance Studies will combine courses in literature, history, religion, philosophy and art history. A group consisting of psychologists, philosophers, computer scientists and a psychobiologist is developing a Cognitive Science minor. In keeping with the recent burgeoning of scholarship about women and gender, there will be a Women's Studies minor drawing on courses from many disciplines, including anthropology, history, literature, psychology, and sociology. . An especially wide-ranging minor on the theme Light and Color will integrate courses in the natural sciences - photobiology, optical physics and chemis-

try - with offerings in studio art, art history and theatrical stage-lighting. Another minor will examine Computer Technology and Modern Society through courses in computer science, mathematics and philosophy. The Law and Society minor embraces the fields of economics, political science and sociology, among others. Faculty in dance, music and theater are collaborating on a Peiforming Arts interdisciplinary minor. And in recognition of student interest in the peoples and cultures of other parts of the globe, minors on specific geographical areas are under development for instance, Latin American Studies, Asian Studies and Russian and Soviet Studies. The distribution requirement approved by the faculty and ratified by the Board ofTrustees this past spring addresses the traditional concern of liberal learning for breadth of study. Under the open curriculum, virtually all students have chosen to take courses in the humanities and social sciences. But, de.,. spite the pervasive importance of science and technology, 路almost half the members of recent graduating classes elected to do no course work in natural sciences. And a somewhat smaller percentage shunned both quantitative courses and the fine and performing arts. In view of this persistent pattern, the Curriculum Committee and the General Education Council, a new faculty-administration body withjurisdiction over the non-major curriculum, jointly developed the plan for ensuring distribution which the faculty

adopted. It provides that every undergraduate must pass, with a letter grade, one course in each of five general education categories: the Arts, Humanities, Natural Sciences, Numerical and Symbolic Reasoning, and Social Sciences. The General Education Council plans to designate a large and varied group of courses in each of the five categories, thus affording students considerable freedom of choice in fulfilling the requirement. The aim, Dean Spencer said, "is to preserve much of the spirit of the open curriculum, though not its letter." A significant number of new courses will be created, especially in the natural sciences, that are expressly designed to satisfy the requirement. Faculty debate over the distribution plan was heated, and although it passed by a sizable margin, the vote was by no means unanimous. Opponents argued that "requirements are stultifying" and would "guarantee that all student transcripts look the same." Rob-

ert C. Stewart, Dana Professor of Mathematics and a member of the committee that designed the open curriculum in the late 1960s, warned that the distribution requirement would "take the spirit out of the advising system" and give rise to a "student course in curriculum solving." But Professor ofPhilosophy RichardT. Lee, co- chair of the General Education Council and also a member of the committee which produced the open curriculum, defended the distribution plan on grounds that "we owe it to our students to give them exposure to various dimensions of thought." Some of the harshest criticism of the current arrangements came from Professor John E. Simmons of the Biology Department. "If you believe the open curriculum is giving students a liberal education, you are living in a dream world," he asserted. "This is the only culture in the world where mono-lingual graduates are considered educated. The onus is on the faculty to make the curriculum interesting." Joseph D. Bronzino, Roosa Professor of Applied Science, also spoke in favor of the distribution proposal: "We must send a message to students that they need to explore domains that they fear. I hope we can become imaginative in creating new courses that will satisfy the distribution requirements." The new proficiency requirements in writing and basic mathematics will involve careful screening of entering students to determine whether they have mastered these essential skills. The Allan K. Smith Writing Center and the recently-established Mathematics Center will offer a number of courses and tutoring programs for freshmen found to be below par. Continued improvement of expository writing ability will be emphasized across the curriculum, and students needing help can draw upon the resources of the Writing Center at any time during their four years. While adoption of requirements represents a major step away from the open curriculum of 1969, the faculty chose to reaffirm one key part of that curriculum - the freshman seminar program. Freshman seminars have been a distinguishing feature of a Trinity education for nearly twenty years, and faculty enthusiasm for them still runs high. This was evident from a unanimous faculty vote to assign freshman seminars a prominent place in the new curriculum. In recommending that the program be continued, the Curriculum Committee defined three crucial tasks for

the seminars: to give training in writing, discussion and critical thinking; to explore rigorously an intellectually challenging topic; and to provide a mechanism for academic advising, with the seminar instructor serving as adviser to the students in the seminar until they declare a major. Other innovative features of the 1969 curriculum arc also being retained, including independent study, open semesters, student-designed interdisciplinary m~ors, and student- taught courses. A recent study found that two-thirds of American colleges and universities have revised or are now revising their general education programs. The process began at Trinity in 1982, when President English appointed the Project I Committee on Academic Strategies for the '80s, and it ultimately involved a number of standing committees of the faculty and ad hoc groups. A succession of proposals was put forward for discussion over a period of nearly five years. Although each set of proposed changes differed from the others in matters of detail, all shared a focus on interdisciplinary study, the need to ensure breadth, and concern about writing and mathematical proficiency. Some members of the faculty called for a foreign language requirement, such as the College had for many years prior to 1969. But each of the committees that studied the issue rejected this idea, citing a variety of pragmatic and principled reasons for opposing it.

Many faculty members also favored requiring all students to take courses dealing with race, gender and/or non-western cultures. At one stage of the deliberations, the faculty voted in such a requirement, but the measure was later withdrawn. The consensus has been that the open curriculum served several generations ofTrinity students very well, and it was with some ambivalence that the faculty decided to modify it. As President English stated in a recent letter informing some 5500 secondaryschool principals and headmasters about the changes, "Highly motivated undergraduates have, with the help of careful advising, made imaginative and constructive use of the open curriculum to fashion programs tailored to their individual interests. In recent years, however, the conviction has grown in the faculty that the current generation of students would benefit if their freedom were tempered by the introduction of some degree of structure into the nonmajor course of study. The new curriculum reflects that conviction." â&#x20AC;˘

SPORTS Fall Sports Outlook The fall athletic season is almost upon us and Trinity's sports teams are primed and ready for the challenges that await them. Before previewing the 1987 teams, however, let's look back at some of the exceptional performances that were turned in by Trinity's fall teams during the 1986 season. The field hockey team won the N.I.A.C. Championship and broke the School record for consecutive wins whil-e compiling a 14-0 record. Women's tennis finished with an 8-3 record and lost only to Amherst in Division III competition. The men's soccer team improved to 6- 7 and seems ready to turn the corner towards a winning season. Finally, the football team had its seventh consecutive winning season with a 5-3 record, including a thrilling 30-28 win over an undefeated Hamilton team. With many outstanding athletes returning, hopes are high on all the teams for successful 1987 seasons. The upcoming 1987 football season will be the 103rd year of gridion competition for Trinity and Don Miller (20 years, 104-53-3) and his coaching staff are already preparing for a busy fall. Last year, the Bantams rushed for 路 1,592 yards, and the key to that potent ground game was Trinity's powerful offensive line. With the entire line returning, including senior Co-Captain John Morrissey, senior running backs Wally Wrobel and John Calcaterra should have plenty of holes to shoot through. The graduation ofDan Tighe has left the quarterback position up for grabs. Junior Kevin Griffin is the leading candidate, but he will receive stiff competition from Steve Altman '89 and Todd Levine '90. Griffin (6'1 ", 190) can throw in the mold of past Trinity greats Joe Shield and Dan Tighe, but his ability to run will add a new dimension to the Trinity offense. On defense, the picture is little more hazy. Ends Bob Sickinger '90 and

Mark Polinsky '88 and tackle Kevin Walsh '88 return on the defensive line, but coach Miller will have to find replacements for both linebackers and the entire secondary. It appears that there are plenty of experienced and talented athletes to fill these positions. Field hockey has won three consecutive N.I.A.C. titles and the ingredients are there for another championship team. Head Coach Robin Sheppard has her top two scorers back in seniors Ellie Pierce (19- 8- 27) and Jen Brewster. On defense, Sheppard will depend upon veterans Laura von Seldeneck '88 and Gretchen Bullard '89 to stop the enemy attack. The men's soccer team has a good chance to record its first .winning season since 1977. Head Coach Robie Shults will be depending upon senior Co- captains Durkin Barnhill and George Manthous and junior Scott Isaac to do most of the scoring. The defense is solid with the dependable Steve Ryan '88 and John Tindall '88 protecting goalkeeper E.G. Woods '89. First-year coach Maureen Pine takes over a women's soccer team that finished 3-9- 1 during the 1986 season. But with the top three scorers returning from last year, Pine has reason to be optimistic. Sophomores Kathy Ennis and Debby Glew and junior Layne Pomerleau give the Lady Bants a solid offensive attack, while goalkeeper Kim Carey '89 heads a stingy defense. Head Coach Wendy Bartlett lost three ofher top six singles players to graduation, but with some experienced veterans and a talented freshman class she hopes to equal or better last year's 8-3 mark. Senior Captain Margaret Driscoll will be one of the Lady Bants' top singles players along with Beth Cuttone '88 and Katherine Macaulay '90. Stan Ogrodnik has run up an impressive record as the head coach of (Contim<ed on page 26)

Life is filled with transitions. From grade school to high school, from high school to college, from college to the working world, life is a constant progression from one step to the next. In athletics one of the most difficult transitions is becoming a successful coach after a successful playing career. Maureen Pine, Trinity's new women's soccer coach, is one such athlete who is now prepared to take over her first head coaching position. "It's difficult," explains Pine, "being in a position where you're only a few ye垄rs older than the kids and all of a sudden trying to make them run sprints." Although coming into a new position can be more than a little disconcerting for a ymmg coach, Pine has a wealth of experience to help her through the initial stages. Growing up in Durham, New Hampshire she was playing sports almost as soon as she could pick up a ball. "I was fortunate enough to grow up with two brothers who were involved in athletics. As a result I've probably played everything. Through high school I was always trying to get involved with new sports." She lists ice hockey, swimming, and baseball as her favorite childhood activities. In fact, she was the first girl to play Little League baseball in her hometown. By the time she reached high school, she had become one of the most accomplished female athletes in the area and soon began to excel for her high school field hockey, basketball, and softball teams. "My parents were both professors at the University ofNew Hampshire and being just down the street from UNH was a big help. At the time, women's athletics were just getting started at the college level and UNH had really strong programs. I spent most of my time hanging around the gym there and found some good role models a lot earlier than other kids in my age group." Pine went to Colby College and quickly learned the difference between high school and collegiate athletics. "I went from being a S'r forward in high school to being the smallest player on my college team." Through hard work and determination she eventually became one of the leading players on both the women's basketball and softball

/ I

Pine teams. During her senior year, she was the point guard for Colby's E.C.A.C. championship basketball team that was ranked in the top ten nationally. While earning a degree in American Studies at Colby, she had already begun preparing herself for a job in coaching. "I got interested in coaching from working at summer basketball camps. I liked working with young people and got a lot of self satisfaction and positive feedback while I was coaching, so I decided to pursue it." Mter graduating from Colby in 1984, she accepted a two-year graduate fellowship at Smith College as an assistant basketball coach and junior varsity softball coach. In addition to gaining valuable coaching experience at Smith, she earned a master's degree in Exercise Studies and Sports Sciences with an emphasis on practical application. Although experienced in coaching, Pine found the initial experience as a graduate assistant difficult to handle. "When you're in your first year of grad school it's hard because the seniors on the team would have been your best friends v<路1.en you were in college. As a result it'~ difficult to draw the line. But as you get a little older it becomes easier. My camp background helped a lot. For

instance, if the head coach asked me to start a lay-up drill, I could think of one because I had done a million of them before." Armed with a master's degree and two solid years of coaching experience, Pine moved on to Division I Cornell where she was an assistant basketball coach and recruiting coordinator. She found Cornell to be very different in terms of the amount of time the athletes spent working out. "At Cornell basketball is yearround for the players and year-round for the coaches. Sometimes it was too much for me. Basketball is great and I enjoy it, but there are times when you don't want to be in the office from seven o'clock in the morning until ten o'clock at night, especially in April." After a year at Cornell, Pine realized that coaching Division I basketball was not for her. But she had set high standards for Herself and coaching positions at academically competitive schools were difficult to come by. "I had two head coaching offers before I went to Cornell, but they were not the caliber I wanted. I've been fortunate to play and coach at high quality academic institutions. I want to be at a school like Trinity where I'm not worried about people flunking out and keeping my players eligible." Now at Trinity, Pine faces the task of rebuilding Trinity's 3-9-1 soccer team and 7-12 basketball team. "It's not going to be easy to turn things around, but the positive ingredients are there to make it happen within a few years. I believe that instilling a winning attitude in my players can go a long way in building a successful program. Other than that, I think that plain hard work on my part to give the players the best possible instruction can only improve the soccer and basketball programs at Trinity." As they say in the coaching profession, Maureen Pine "has paid her dues." She has come full circle from player to graduate assistant, from graduate assistant to assistant, from assistant to head coach. Now with the reins ofTrinity's soccer and basketball teams firmly in her grasp, she is ready to help the women recapture the success of years past.

Trinity's men's basketball team and now he will apply his skills to the women's volleyball team. The team finished with an 8-10 record in 1986 and Ogrodnik is confident his group of veteran players can surpass that mark in 1987. Leading the way fqr the Lady Bants will be senior Co-captains Kristen Cadelina and Kathleen Strauss. The men's and women's crosscountry teams round out the fall athletic teams. The men have shown great improvement in recent years and Head 路 Coach Alex Magoun is optimistic about the team's chances in 1987. Senior Co-captains Matt Donahue and Craig Gemmell have consistently been Trinity's top finishers the past two years and are prepared to make the 1987 season successful. Tri-captains Gail Wehrli '89, Shana Pyun '88, and Jennifer Elwell '88 lead a young and talented women's team that compiled an 8-7 mark during the 1986 campaign.

1987 Athletic Awards This past spring, President English

and his wife Isabelle hosted the annual Trinity College Athletic Awards ceremony at their home on the Trinity campus. With parents, coaches, and Trinity athletes past and present looking on, President English handed out awards to nine participants in and supporters ofTrinity athletics. The George Sheldon McCook Trophy, the most coveted athletic award for men at the College, was presented by Head Football Coach Don Miller to Daniel Tighe as the top senior male scholar-athlete. As a protege of Miller, Tighe was the latest in a long line oflegendary Trinity quarterbacks. He was captain in his senior season and guided the team to a 10- 6 record in his two years as a starter. During the 1985 season, he broke several College passing records, and was selected as a third team All-American. As a history major, Tighe compiled a 3.6 grade point average, was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, and graduated with honors. Most recently, he was voted New England College Athletic Conference Division III Male Athlete of the Year by a committee of twelve athletic di-

rectors from New England colleges and universities. Tighe also joined senior Christopher Hyland as co-recipient of the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference Scholar-Athlete Award. The Award is presented to the male senior who is outstanding in scholarship as well as athletics. Hyland was co-captain and the leading scorer for the Trinity College men's soccer team. A four-year starter, Hyland was the team's leading scorer in each of the past three seasons, accumulating 25 goals and 6 assists. As a mathematics major with a computer coordinate, Hyland registered a 3.6 grade point average. Like Tighe, Hyland was also elected to Phi Beta Kappa and graduated with honors. Virginia Vogel received the Trinity Club of Hartford Trophy, the female equivalent of the McCook Trophy. Vogel, a native ofBeverly Farms, Massachusetts, distinguished herself in three sports while at Trinity: field hockey, squash, and lacrosse. During her senior field hockey season she set a new College record for scoring assists

HATS OFF

' Over the course of the past year, one of Trinity's most extraordinary athletes set new standards of both leadership and athletic achievement. Meredith Lynch '87 was elected Co-captain by her teammates in cross country, indoor track, and outdoor track during her senior year. This accomplishment alone speaks well for the respect and admiration her teammates held for her leadership qualities. But it is her ability as an athlete that sets her apart. As a four-year performer in three sports she earned nine varsity letters, more than any woman has ever earned in these sports at Trinity. During that time she has set or helped set three school track records. As a freshman, she ran the second leg ofTrinity's 4 X 800-

meter relay team that set a school record with a 9:40.40 clocking. She saved her best season for last, however, as she helped the cross country and indoor and outdoor track teams to fine seasons. She was voted Most Valuable Runner for the 8-7 cross country team in the fall. During the winter season she was one of the top runners for Alex Magoun's 3-1 indoor track team. Finally, in the spring she broke two more records for Trinity's 8-1 outdoor track team. She set a new standard in the 1,000-meters with a time of 2:49.94 and was a member of the 4 X 400-meter relay team, which recorded the fastest Division III time in New England. Hats off to Meredith Lynch, one ofTrinity's best.

as the team finished with an undefeated record and won its third consecutive New England championship. She was named first team All-American and Trinity's Most Valuable Player. Her senior year in lacrosse was equally productive. She was captain ofTrinity's first undefeated team which won its fourth New England title in five years. She contributed significantly to that success by scoring 23 goals and 15 assists from her attack position. In addition, she was voted to the AllNew England Women's Lacrosse Team. Seniors Elisabeth Boelhouwer and Sophie Porter were awarded the Susan E. Martin Award. This Award is presented annually to the senior woman who has combined excellence in the classroom with excellence in athletics. Boelhouwer was a four-time varsity letter winner for the Trinity field

hockey team and helped the team to three consecutive New England titles. As a student, Boelhouwer graduated with honors in biology and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. Sophie Porter finished her brilliant squash career as one of the Trinity's all-time greats. A twotime All-American, she co-captained the 1986-87 women's squash team that recorded the best record in College history, and finished number two in the nation. Michael Williams was the recipient of the Bob Harron Award, while Alexandra Michos was given the Board of Fellows A ward as the top male and female student athletes in the junior class, respectively. Williams, a biochemistry major, ~as earned three varsity letters in swimming and is the captain-elect for the 1988 team. During the 1986-87 season, he qualified

for the New England championships and set a new College record in the 200-yard individual medley. Michos, a history major, has plqyed a vital role in the emergence of the women's track and field team that finished the 1987 season with an 8-1 record. She holds the College record in the 55-meter indoor hurdles, and 100-meter hurdles, and was a member ofTrinity's record setting 4 X 100-meter and a 4 X 400meter relays. Sophomore Elizabeth Chaffin was the recipient of the Larry Silver Award. This Award, in memory ofLawrence Silver '64, who was killed on a bombing mission in Vietnam, is made annually to a student who, by vote of the Athletic Department Staff, has contributed most to the Trinity athletic program as a non-player. Chaffin has proven to be a dedicated supporter of Trinity athletics as both a volunteer

SPORTS=================== manager of the Trinity hockey team and as a student trainer. In her role as manager her duties included transporting equipment, operating the clock during team practices, and reporting game results. As a student trainer, she traveled with Trinity's athletic teams to . away contests to offer medical assistance, assisted with the rehabilitation of injured athletes, and often put in a 20-25 hour work-week in the athletic training room. The winner of the 1987 Bantam Award was Dr. John P. Fulkerson. The

Bantam Award is presented annually to a non-student who has made a distinguished contribution to the Trinity athletic program. Fulkerson has offered his services as a Sports Medicine Consultant to the Trinity athletic department for the past five years. During that time, he has made regular visits to the campus to evaluate injured athletes.

BIOIOIKIS by Trinity Authors CHINA'S PATH TO MODERNIZATION: A Historical Review from 1800 to the Present Ranbir Vohra, Charles A. Dana Prcifessor if Political Science Prentice-Hall, Simon & Schuster Higher Education Publishing Group, 1987, 384 pages, $25.95 paper. This college text presents a comprehensive, thoughtful overview of China's unique approach to modernization, integrating the political, cultural and economic-developments in China's push for modernization. The provocative and highly readable narrative traces the complex interaction between Chinese cultural tradition and the forces of change. It explores the reasons why China underwent one revolution after another in its quest for modernization and evaluates the dramatic policy shifts and structural changes taking place in post-Mao China.

The book begins by spotlighting pre1800 China, in order to set subsequent modernization efforts in historical context. It focuses on the ideology and institutions that molded Chinese political culture and contrasts Confucian political ideals with the realities of Manchugentry rule. In subsequent chapters it offers fresh insights into critical transition periods, such as the collapse of the Manchu dynasty and the establishment of the first republic, and the shift of power from the Nationalists to the Communists. The last chapter evaluates the dynamic and dramatic policy shifts and structural changes occurring in post-Mao China. Dr. Vohra has published widely on China and is the author of Lao She and the Chinese Revolution and editor of The Chinese Revolution; 1900 to 1950.

major, modern theories of the person. In concise, clearly written language, Dr. St. Clair offers an easy-to-understand overview of the ideas - and approaches to therapy - of seven major theorists in the field: W.R.D. Fairbairn, Melanie Klein, D.W. Winnicott, Edith Jacobson, Margaret S. Mahler, Otto Kernberg, and Heinz Kohut. The book is designed to make the stimulating insights into the human personality offered by object relations and self psychology accessible to psycho]..:. ogy and social work students, theologians, and others interested in this area of psychoanalytic thought. To that end, the book provides an orientation and classification of terms and ideas; supplies the Freudian background of each theorist's work; illustrates the work of each theorist with case studies; summarizes, compares, and contrasts the theorists' work; includes a bibliography, annotated with paragraphs about each contributor, and numbered to refer the reader to the selected readings; and offers a complete glossary.

"This study of the politics of Syria under the French Mandate will be the standard work on the subject," says Charles lssawi ofPrinceton University. Why Syrian political life continued to be dominated by a particular urban elite even after the dramatic changes following the end of 400 years of Ottoman rule and the imposition of French control is one key question discussed by Professor Khoury in this, his second book on Syrian politics. This comprehensive work treats this, and other questions in the framework of two related conflicts - one between France and the Syrian nationalists, and the other between liberal and radical nationalism. He examines in detail the French pressures and radical forces that challenged old patterns of urban notable politics and analyzes the delicate adjustments nationalists made during the Mandate period, DRUGS & DISEASE when the balance of power in Syria was THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF much more fragile than it had been unPSYCHOACTIVE DRUGS, der the Ottomans.

In the fall of 1914 I entered Trinity College with the Class of 1918. Shortly thereafter I became affiliated with the Phi Psi Chapter of Alpha Chi Rho where I was associated with two boys from Newtown, CT- the late FRANK LEMUEL JOHNSON, Class of 1917, and GEORGE MALUTE FERRIS, Class of 1916. After graduation, Frank taught school until his retirement which occurred shortly before I elected to make my home in Newtown. For years, the late Willard Johnson (Class of 1917 at Wesleyan), Frank and I attended morning prayer at Trinity Church and the monthly luncheon meeting of the Newtown Boys' Club. During that time Frank presented Trinity Church with many mementos, artifacts, pictures, books and documents. The Church is planning to purchase and to install a pair of display cases, suitable for exhibits of interesting historical material and to place them in the hall outside the nave of the Church as a memorial in thanksgiving for Frank's significant contributions. It is expected that the memorial will be dedicated the first Sunday in October. Class Agent: Louisa Pinney Barber

I am happy to report that at the annual Half Century Dinner held at the College on June 11, YOUR SECRETARY was

presented with a special Class Secretary Award for 35 years of faithful service. I was never so absolutely surprised in my whole life! (I must revamp my espionage system at the College.) I thank Director of Alumni and College Relations JERRY HANSEN '51 for the honor; I also thank his ever-willing staff for their encouragement and cooperation. Jerry presented me with a silvery-chrome Cross ball point pen, appropriately inscribed, which I shall always treasure. This appears to be my year to crow! On June 4, The Hartford Courant gave me a write-up for being the oldest (85) and most enthusiastic (really noisiest) member of a Hartford YMCA calisthenics class that meets three times a week. Really no big deal as I've been attending the classes for about 55 years. The program is set to recorded music and as we exercise we enjoy singing such vintage songs as "Mary's a Grand Old Name," "Alexander's Ragtime Band," and "Mademoiselle from Armentieres." Do you recall those tunes or are they way before your time? How about hearing from you? Tell us about your grandchildren, hobbies, travels, achievements. Who knows? Maybe with such material we shall win another Oscar? Jerry won't mind. Class Agent: Sereno B. Gammell

Both your chairman, ANDY FORRESTER, and YOUR SECRETARY received letters last month from KATHLEEN O'CONNOR '85, assistant director of annual giving, to the effect that due to health problems, REV. ROBERT CONDIT had decided to resign as Class Agent. He suggested that either of us would be an excellent replacement. Well, it didn't take long for us to get together and agree that ROGER HARTT was the classmate for the job. We are happy that he has accepted and herewith best wishes to him! Because of physical problems, neither Andy nor the writer was able to attend

the festivities of our 60th Reunion, but Roger and his lovely wife, Jinx, attended and proudly led the reunion classes in the march down the Long Walk. Roger reports a very nice time highlighted with good talks with HERB NOBLE '26 and JIM BENT '28. Congratulations, Roger, on your new job and for being the sole representative of 1927 at our 60th!

THE REVEREND PAUL C. ARMSTRONG, who we understand is retired from his office in the Episcopal Church, has sent along a note to tell us that he will be studying this summer at Trinity Hall, Cambridge University, as part of the Cambridge-UCLA summer program. This will be Paul's second summer there. Later in the summer he expects to be at Christ Church, Oxford University. Not playing a:ny favorities, eh Paul? JACK HANNA, who retired in 1985 and is professor of English, emeritus, University of Southern Maine, has been doing teaching part time ever since then. His teaching activity includes television, as, on closed circuit TV, he is conducting a course entitled "Straight and Crooked Thinking," having to do with the critical analysis of reasoning. YOURS TRULY is able to and proud to report a happy event in his family. In March, a grandson was born to son, Robert Osborn, and his wife, Carol. We have two granddaughters living in Avon, CT, but this is our first grandson. Robert lives and works in Lansing, MI, and is historic preservation coordinator in the state department of the State of Michigan. Sorry to say that YOUR SECRETARY was unable to attend the Reunion weekend at the College in June. We just had to attend a wedding in North Carolina the same weekend. I had hoped to pick up some news to pass along to you all, but am again in the position of having to suggest that notes to the College or to me at 66 Centerwood Road, Newington, CT, 06111 will help and be appreciated.

From the lovely luncheon at President

dren, of which three are children of Christopher. Keep up the good work, George! Once again YOUR SECRETARY had the pleasure this June of attending the Reunion Dinner of the Half Century Club with VIC HAMILTON, DICK LEGGETT, and the women folk. Two faithful attendees, JACK WILCOX and MIKE BASSFORD, did not show this year and we're expecting good excuses from them for their absence - a note from their mothers will do! Seriously, we encourage all '39ers to join with us at the College for this annual celebration which boasts good food and good drink, plus warm Trinity fellowship with generous portions of fond memories of old buddies and of "those days that are past, far too joyous to last!" The Half Century Club Reunion Dinner is open to the 50th Reunion Class and members of those classes that are within striking distance of their 50th or those who have already arrived. Class Agent: Ethan F. Bassford

40 Class of1942 Jim English's home on Thursday, June 11, 1987 to the final Class Reception and Dinner on Saturday night, 34 members of the Class of 1937 and 26 spouses had a ball celebrating the 50 years that have passed since their graduation. The years melted away as we renewed old friendships and talked about the good old days. One of our treasured memories of this wonderful weekend was the lovely memorial service held in the Chapel for the deceased members of the Class. It was disheartening to note from the program that 50 of our classmates have gone on to the great commencement. The Class of 1937 was officially inducted into the Half Century Club on Thursday evening with a gala reception and dinner that included many alumni who had previously been inducted. At a brief Class meeting on Saturday before the annual Reunion Class Parade, the following officers were elected: MICKEY KOBROSKY, Class president; HARRY SANDERS, vice president-Reunions; DANIEL ALPERT, vice-president-special projects; MICHAEL SCENT!, secretary; and BILL HULL, Class agent. This report would not be complete if we failed to acknowledge the great effort put forth by Bill Hull in helping the Class of 1937 achieve its announced goal of raising $37,000 for its 50th Reunion. I am happy to report that $39,387 was raised. The Class of 1937 was awarded the Board of Fellows Award for outstanding class spirit. We also received the Jerome Kohn Award for the largest percentage of a class returning to a reunion. It was an honor for our class to be so recognized. Bill Hull and Harry Sanders were honored for their outstanding contributions to our class. We wish to acknowledge our thanks to Director of Alumni and College Relations JERRY HANSEN '51 and College Relations Special Events Coordinator Ann Crumb for helping make our Reunion such a memorable event. Now for some activities in which our Class members are participating. AL

HASKELL presided at the first meeting of the International Haskell Family Association in Shaftesbury, England on the Fourth of July. BILL STYRING attended and participated in the Barber Shop Quartet Convention held at the Hartford Civic Center July 1-4. JOHN BANKS has sent word that he will end his year as president of the Kiwanis Club of Chapel Hill, NC on September 30. This will allow him to spend more time as a volunteer in patient education in the North Carolina Memorial Hospital and as a director of the Interfaith Council for Social Service. The good Reverend is still running after all these years. Bill Hull has told me that he has given five gallons of blood to the Red Cross drive in Sarasota, FL. Previous to his retirement from The Travelers, he had donated at least seven gallons. What a man - no wonder he is our super Class Agent. Please send me some timely news about what you are doing. We will all be interested in hearing from you. Class Agent: William G. Hull James M.F. Weir 27Bi-ookRd. REUNION Woodbridge, CT 06525

JOHN D. BRENNAN writes that he is looking forward to his 50th reunion next year. CARL HODGDON, JR. announces that twin grandsons were born in January. That makes seven grandchildren! Cantor ARTHUR KORET notes that he is still singing occasional concerts. A May 13 article in the New Britain Herald describes the tribute paid to him by Temple B'Nai Israel. He had been helpful to the Temple in its recent search for a music director and cantor. HARVEY RAYMOND, who has just completed a new home on King's Lake in Naples, FL, spent the summer at his home in Brevard, NC. His oldest grandchild, Nicole, was married in August. She and her husband are graduates of the

University of South West Florida in Tampa. He writes that his last stint with the International Executive Service was two years ago in the Philippines where Dr. Ogilby's son had been rector of the largest Episcopal Church. Harvey say~, "It was refreshing because he was the same boy who, when asked in Sunday School about the Holy Trinity, replied, 'I should know, my father is the President of it!' It brought me back 50 years to 1935 when he was probably 10 years old." ARTHUR SHERMAN's eighth grandchild was born in May. He asks, "Is this a record in the Class of 1938?" In 1979, WILBUR TATTERSALL retired from West Point Pepperell Co. He has three children, six grandchildren and one great-grandchild. He writes that he is enjoying Florida, New York and Maine.

Word from DAVE DAVIDSON tells us that recently he completed his chapter in "Applied Fiber Transmission" on the way light propagates in a single mode within glass fibers. Published by H.S . Sems. It was good to hear from JOE FERNANDEZ. We congratulate him on his 79th birthday and his 65th wedding anniversary last May. Joe and his wife are spending their well-earned retirement by regularly visiting Florida, Connecticut, and Rhode Island - often, as he says, thinking of the "good ole" days at Trinity.

GUS ANDRIAN, recently retired professor of modern languages at Trinity, and his wife, PEGGY M.A. '66, have returned from a trip abroad. They visited their daughter, BARRIE '79, and her husband, David Burden, in Bosham, England, and then went on to the island of Majorca (Spain) to stay with friends. On their return, Gus and Peggy, with Professor of Economics Robert Battis and his wife, Ruth, held a sort of reunion with DICK MORRIS and his wife, Alice, at the Dock Restaurant in Old Saybrook, CT. AL HOPKINS ("Hoppie") reports, as a good Class President should: "Earth shaking news! 1990 is not far distant!" St. Andrew's Church in Colchester, VT has just dedicated the Kerr Fellowship Hall in honor of the RT. REV. ROBERT S. KERR, retired Bishop of Vermont. Bob and his wife, Carolyn, were taken by surprise. Accepting the honor, Bob modestly quoted Psalm 127: "Unless the Lord build the house, those who build it labor in vain." We note with sadness TOMMY McLAUGHLIN's loss of his son, Thomas A., to an inoperable brain tumor. He was only 33 years old. Dick Morris, Trinity professor of education and anthropology emeritus, is busy completing a new book, his fourth such work. His wife, Alice, has exhibited her watercolors at the Pratt-Wright Gallery in Noank, CT, including "atmospheric landscapes of New England and Europe." DICK ONDERDONK says he is looking forward to our 50th Reunion in 1990. Sad news is inevitable at our tender ages. THOMAS (Bob) PYE, JR. has suffered a severe stroke and recovery is complicated by diabetes and asthma. Left with aphasia and apraxia, Bob says, "I cannot talk very well, but I am learning." (His address is: 8433 Gannon Avenue, University City, MD 63132.) Another classmate "putting up the good fight" is JACKS. WHITE. Jack is struggling back from serious brain surgery with the help of "my wonderful wife, Julie." He has moved "home to where my

ancestors settled as pioneer ranchers in 1883." (His new address is: P.O. Box 931, Rim Rock, AZ 86335.) CHARLIE WALKER has done it again - added to his laurels in the world of music, directing the Canterbury Choral Society (which he founded) in a performance of Mahler's "monumental" Eighth Symphony in E-flat at Carnegie Hall on Monday, May 11. His amateur youth choirs, drawn from New York City's schools, numbering 424 voices, shared with Charlie the rave reviews in Newsday, the Daily News, and The New York Times. "Walker finished the symphony with calm assurance, building steadily to the climax. One dared to hope, for one moment, that Carnegie Hall might begin to levitate." "Impressive," said one review; "splendid," said another; "a steady, measured performance," wrote The New York Times. The Canterbury Choral Society functions in close association with the Church of the Heavenly Rest on East 90th Street where Charlie is organist and music director. Congratulations, Charlie Walker, we're proud to have you as a classmate. Class Agent: Stephen Riley, Esq.

If you weren't among the 21 fellows

who made our 45th Reunion in June, please plan NOW, regardless of all other considerations, to come to our FIFTIETH. The Class of '37 mustered something like a 50 percent turnout. We can do better in '92! The only flaw in the whole Reunion was that I somehow found myself elected Class Secretary. DON VIERING, reelected 1942's President, found out I had a computer and railroaded the whole thing to MARTY WOOD's delight. Marty, who's done a splendid job as secretary for a long time, was named our Vice-President. DICK BESTOR was fittingly re-elected Treasurer. Before the Reunion I had newsy and cordial letters from HENRY GETZ, BOB PILLSBURY, JOHN BOND and JOHN CHURCHILL. Somehow I managed to mislay these while Ruth and I were getting ready for our just-completed "RV" trip back East. Anyway, I recall that Bob wrote me while on a business trip, signifying con-

tinued activity; John Bond is still educating in Lawrence, KS; John Churchill has remarried, retired to the Tennessee hill country, still keeping his M.D.'s hand in, doing research there. The Rev. "Hank" Getz says he hadn't heard that nickname since '42. GEORGE JACOBSEN had written, before attending the Reunion, that his son, ROD '73, started a two-year stint teaching in Nairobi, Kenya in July. At the reunion: The multilingual JIM CANNON nonplussing a slightly smug undergraduate waitress at the Friday night meal with his fluent Russian; JOE BONSIGNORE assuring us it's the Smithsonian magazine he continues to publish, and not Penthouse; OLLIE COLTON basking in newly-acquired retirement; DR. WILBUR JEHL retired but looking for another job!; HAROLD JOHNSON enjoying life on one of those fancy islands off South Carolina; RAY MANNING, single again, driving a macho convertible down from New Hampshire; "BOBS" MORRIS and NICHOLS still in business; Bob Nichols as our fund-raiser presenting our $15,000 gift to the College at the all-classes alumni meeting; JACK BARBER graciously accepting the coveted "first to reserve" award at the alumni meeting (who needs the Eigenbrodt Trophy anyway); GUS PETERSON starting a THIRD career as a minister, now assistant pastor in the Congregational Church in South Hadley, MA and to be ordained soon. Others at the reunion claiming to be unretired were DR. PAUL PIZZO, ATTY. MILFORD RHINES, RAY RODGERS, BILL SCULLY, ATTY. TOM TAMONEY, DR. TOM WOOD, ROGER MOHRHARDT, and JOE BEIDLER. We're still glowing from the fabulous four days on campus. I think we have a talented, fascinating group of classmates. I feel when looking over the 1942 Class list that you all must have stories, opinions or news of interest to us. Please write me with some good stuff to put in this bulletin. I'll try to get JERRY HANSEN '51 to give Trinity's greatest class lots of space in the Reporter. Class Agent: Charles F. Johnson II

South Africa for a vacation. Mter a month of rest, he became a consultant to the Durban Office of the Urban Foundation. He raised funds for U.F., Rotary and Inyanda Chamber of Commercesponsored school to train blacks to repair TV sets and to operate their own businesses. In January, 1987, Rotary and Inyanda underwrote the cost of his services. Then, in March, the International Executive Service Corps asked him to serve as their Natal represent;1tive. He was glad to accept this second position, he writes, "because, in linking retired South African white executives to black small businessmen, I would be furthering black aspirations." The two jobs keep him busy and he has recently applied for a second work permit. He notes further, "It is a very exciting country. Living, working and traveling here have reinforced some of my views and compelled me to revise others. The future seems uncertain, both with the emergence of the Kwa Zulu Endaba one can hardly say South Africans universally have their heads in the sand . There is much to be done and the talent is here to see that it is done well . In any case, it is a privilege to be here and to take a role, however small it may be, in bringing about the kinds of changes that will enhance the prospects for a bright future for South Africa."

Many of you knew Bobby as they met their sophomore year while she was at Smith, and there was lots of commuting back and forth for weekends. They were married in the summer of '49 in Seattle, WA and have lived there ever since. I recently learned that DAVE AUSTIN's wife, Peg, died in 1985. Many of you will remember her as they were married Dave's senior year.

ROBERT MANSBACH writes, "Mary and I have a brand-new granddaughter, Alexandra Marie Mansbach. Graduating Class of 2009?" (Alexandra Marie is the daughter of Robert's son, ROBERT '79; see Births.) On to the report of the 35th: Our Reunion was a grand and glorious success. Unfortunately, all who wished to return were unable to do so, but those who were unable to attend were there in spirit. Your CLASS SECRETARY was unable to make the festivities due to his daughter Sharon's graduation from U.C. San Francisco Dental School. My reward was to be unanimously re-elected Class Secretary for another five years. That's what happens when you're not there to defend yourself. Thanks to some help from DAVE SMITH, "HOOT" NICHOLSON, JOHN WYNNE, and NICK CHRISTAKOS, what follows is a very incomplete, but hopefully accurate, account of the festivities. By all reports, it was a great reunion, and the high point was Saturday evening at the cocktail party and the dinner afterwards in Mather. But I'm getting ahead of myself. As

those of you who attended our 30th Reunion recall, one Richard Ecroyd Nicholâ&#x20AC;˘ son (known as "Ekkie" to his intimate friends) vowed that at his 35th reunion he would not show up if his wife, Polly, did not attend. It's hard to understand how he could let us down, but ... "Hoot" was there but no Polly. Some of us faintly remember a riotous Saturday in the summer of 1952 in Skaneateles at which there was some sort of hitching ceremony that t ranspired. Perhaps we were in some kind of a dreamlike trance and no marriage ever took place . . . Comments abounded about how little people had changed. A few heads were a little grayer or a bit less hirsute but, by and large, what we remembered about our classmates hadn't really changed very much. A number of classmates were back for their very first "re-union" (DOUG ORMEROD and SAM NAKASO, amongst others), and almost to a man they commented that they were glad to be back and sorry that they hadn't made it back more often. The parade on Saturday afternoon had a few minor glitches, mostly due to a couple of unreconstructed party animals named "Hoot" and Nick. It seemed to these two stalwarts that instead of the Class of '52 following all the other classes, it should lead them. An abortive shortcut later, it was decided to re-join the rest of the assembled classes and take their rightful place in the parade. JOHN WYNNE and his wife, Sally, flew into Bradley Field from New York, minus baggage. It was eventually reclaimed, having made a round trip to Boston before reaching its owners. Like Clark Kent slipping into a phone booth and emerging in his blue suit and cape, John immediately headed for the College Bookstore where he donned a Trinity sweatshirt. When he left on Sunday evening, John was still wearing the Trinity shirt. A couple of undergraduates were

heard to comment late Sunday that "he sure didn't look like a staid New York banker." George Cooper attended our cocktail party Saturday night and was warmly received. He had just flown in from England, and had many of us amused and entertained. It was good to see him. VINCE DIANA drove up to the reunion in his 75-foot Cadillac with the personalized license plates. From the trunk he brought forth a gallon (at least) of homemade "Dago Red." Whether it was the wine or whether it was just good spirits of another variety, Vince suggested to "Hoot" (who was acting as master of ceremonies) that he have individuals get up and tell us what it meant to be back at Reunion. Perhaps the most stirring comments came from SAM NAKASO, who had traveled from California. Sam stood up, and immediately " Hoot" told him to "Get off your knees, Sam, so we can see you!" Sam then got up on a chair and TONY ANGELASTRO piped up, "Where's your camera, Sam?" Sam ignored the kidding and gave a very moving speech about what it meant to him to be back at Reunion. BILLY GORALSKI, who has retired from the teaching profession at Simsbury High School, received the "Homecoming" lighter which he had been euchred out of by "BONES RATHBONE" at our fifth reunion. After a torturous build-up, belaboring the immense contributions that had been made by members of the Class, Hoot finally presented Billy with a clear plastic lighter with a Trinity emblem on the side. NO ELPHANT TO LEAD THE CLASS OF '52 IN THE PARADE "Hoot" told me that they had originally planned to provide a real live elephant to lead us in the parade. The elephant, like Polly Nicholson, turned out to be another figment of "Hoot's" fertile imagination. In retrospect, we've aged, but as a Class we're growing old gracefully. Someone made the comment that Reunions seem to be building more momentum all the time. There were 43 members of the Class of '52, and most had wives with them and it was really an outstandinggroup. DICK COUDEN and BILL VIBERT returned .. . also ED SHAPIRO, JACK MANDERY and JACQUES HOPKINS .. . RE D RATCLIFFE, TED THOMAS, BOB SKINNER and ART COWDERY . . . DICK YEOMANS, BOB DUBUQUE , JOHN HUBBARD and FIN SCHAEF . .. MAURY FREMONTSMITH, PHIL TROWBRIDGE, BOB HUBBARD and ALAN GURWITT . .. GORDON PHELPS, SKIP CORWIN, NED BLEEKER and JACK BEERS ...

Some good news from the best reunion yet, our 30th. The final figures are in, and we broke the prior 30th reunion giving record-ending up with a total Class Gift of $85,909 of which $61,591 is in the Scholarship Fund and $24,318 in the Alumni Fund. Congratulations to our classmates and thanks for your efforts! DICK SOLMSSEN came the farthest from Hawaii. He brought along his guitar and entertained us at Saturday night's festivities. Everyone had a great time and there was only one low point of the entire weekend. Our talented softball team, led by the great pitching of "Triple Bi-pass LaBELLA" and "Curve Ball CATALDO" lost a close one (4-3 in extra innings) to the Class of '62. Our loss was occasioned by poor management and this was noted at Saturday night's dinner. Our manager, DON STOKES, was taken to task at the Reunion dinner and did not have a chance to respond. However, he has demanded, and I have acceded, to allow him to respond in this column and print verbatim his response as follows: "I regret that I did not deliver the following at our Class Dinner, but I submit it to the SECRETARY for publication in the next Class of '57 notes: There was a young lawyer from Franklin Who smoked like a son-of-a-b ____ .

Now, thanks to Fred's interest and generosity, Trinity also has a substantial number of slides which are welcome additions to our slide library.

Nothing but good news coming out of our 20th Reunion held in June. We had a whole bunch come back. I think the final total was over 65 with cars, kids, crutches and charisma like you can't even believe. How did these guys get so personable over the years? Smiles and ex· ecutive hand shakes, looking you right in the eye. As KATHY FREDERICK '71, director of annual giving, put it so well, "You guys really have a great class." We had our usual minor casualty - the rain. That's 10 years without a clambake on the Quad. If it rains for our 25th, we're going to have a mud wrestling contest 'neath the elms.

Doctors who get the literature bug are writing their own prescriptions BY HUGH A. MULLIGAN armington, Conn. - Unless the name on the door is "Richard M. Ratzan, M.D.," patients flipping through the available reading matter in a doctor's waiting room would hardly expect to have their traumas soothed by applications of medicinal literary trivia. Ratzan is fascinated by doctors who write, and here arc some symptoms of what now may be diagnosed as Ratzan's syndrome: Hippocrates, the 4th Century B.C. Greek practitioner who wrote the physician's oath, prescribed barley gruel, a precursor of chicken soup, as a remedy for the common cold. St. Luke, that "dear and glorious" physician, alone among the Gospel authors tells the story of the Good Samaritan. "Yankee Doodle Dandy" was written by British army surgeon Richard Schuckburg to poke fun at raw colonial recruits in the French and Indian War. Dr. Benjamin Rush, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and an ardent advocate of bloodletting, wrote tracts on temperance. Tobias Smollett, creator of "Peregrine Pickle," Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes, and AJ. Cronin, whose "The Citadel" was recently revived as a TV series, all sailed as ship's surgeons. Sir Thomas Browne, Francois Rabelais and Anton Chekhov were practicing physicians. Poet Oliver Wendell Holmes and lexicographer Peter Roget of thesaurus fame taught anatomy. John Keats and Henrik Ibsen practiced pharmacy. Viennese playwright Arthur Schnitzler was a psychiatrist and friend of Sigmund Freud. Like W. Somerset Maugham, novelist Walker Percy, now on the best-seller list with "The Thanatos Syndrome," took degrees in medicine but never practiced. Surgeon Mariano Azuela rode with Pancho Villa and wrote novels by the campfire. Poet and pediatrician William Carlos Williams delivered 3,000 babies. This co~ures up the thought that patients may be waiting so long in a waiting room not because the doctor is tending to another case but because the doctor is hunched over his word proces-

Richard M. Ratzan felt compelled to write, so he researched colleagues who are driven to the word.

sor rejiggering the second chapter of a novel or getting a second opinion from the nurse on the clialogue of a torrid love scene. Richard Ratzan is himself a doctor who writes. In fact, he is in the final editing stages of a book on doctors who write, the outgrowth of a medical congress he staged at the University of Connecticut Health Center two years ago. It drew 400 participants, including a dozen author-physicians, from 27 states and Canada. "My book is primarily about the relationship between medicine and writing," says Ratzan, on a short break from his duties in the emergency room at the university hospital. "Why do doctors write? When do they write? And how do they or should they handle the ethical implications of using patients as source material?" Ratzan, an internist specializing in emergency medicine, majored in Greek, Latin and the classics as an undergraduate. He conducts a weekly seminar in literature for medical students. He has four children, ranging in age from 4 to

12, and a wife who is a pecliatrician at the same hospital. A prolific essayist with a novel buzzing in his head, he ponders late at night over his word processor the ethical questions raised at the conference about writing taking valuable time away from research, patients and family. "Are we all selfish brigands, robbing wives, partners, hospitals and patients of their rightful time and care?" he asks. Doctors, Ratzan has found, write for several reasons: Ego gratification. Escape from the grim realities of the operating table. As an outlet for the human dramas enacted in their consulting rooms. Self- therapy for the pain and frustration at being unable to help someone reaching out to them in trust and hope. And, perhaps in the case of the ship's surgeons, a release from boredom. Some agree with Dr. Johnson that "no man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Some follow St. Luke's advice: "Physician heal thyself." A.J. Cronin had a prosperous London practice until a duodenal ulcer forced a rest of six months in the Highlands of Scotland, where one day he announced to family and friends that he was about to give birth to a novel. Walker Percy turned to fiction while recuperating from tuberculosis that he contracted while cutting up cadavers in pathology class at New York's Bellevue Hospital. Motivations vary with the amazing variety of their output. Dr. Mary Lake Polan, an obstetrician- gynecologist at Yale University medical school, has just written her second murder mystery as an escape from "the very realistic, often sad and tough profession of medicine." Michael Crichton and Alan Nourse write science fiction. In the adventure vein, Ratzan points to Marshall Goldberg, a Minnesota surgeon whose second thriller, "Anatomy Class," is about a medical student who sets out to learn the identity of the young, healthy body he has been assigned to clissect, instead of the usual wino. Psychiatrist Michael Robert Coles won the Pulitzer Prize in nonfiction for "Children of Crisis." Immunologist Lewis Thomas, whose idol is Montaigne, won a National Book award in 197 4 for his essays. These days, Ratzan observes, physician-authors tend to be more serious - "almost angry" writers than their Victorian counterparts. "Their primary motiva-

tion is to create serious works of art. Writing for them is not so much an expiation of guilt as the need to create." Doctors write whenever they can: late at night, on days off, while waiting for the next patient or the next ambulance to arrive at the emergency entrance. A canceled appointment is often the mother of literary invention. On the question of violating the confidentiality between doctor and patient, Ratzan finds that most writing doctors "tend to blenderize their materials. There are any number of stories you acquire, either on your own or from colleagues, that with a little modification can be used legitimately. Their fiction characters are composites." Sooner or later every authorphysician faces what Ratzan calls "the decision," whether to pursue art or science as a career or to continue "leading this demanding double life." "Medicine is my lawful wife; literature is my mistress," confessed Chekhov, who remained remarkably faithful to both. "One occupation complements the other," insisted poet-pediatrician William Carlos Williams. "They are two parts of the whole and not two jobs at all. One rests the man when the other fatigues him." Poetry was "the thing which gained me entrance to the secret gardens of the self." Ratzan's favorite case study is James Gates Percival, a highly praised contemporary of poets Longfellow and Lowell, who quit meclicine when five children in one family and five other patients died in a fever epidemic. Unhappy with writing, he resumed practice in Charleston, S.C., after several suicide attempts but found that "when a person is really ill, he will not send for a poet." "I love the camaraderie of surgery and the solitude of writing," said Richard Seltzer, the author of "Confessions of a Knife" who eventually gave up medicine. As to whether medicine or literature is the higher calling, the jury is still out. Years after Somerset Maugham became a millionaire with a yacht and villa on the Riviera, an eminent surgeon at St. Thomas' hospital was asked if he remembered the author as an intern. "Ah, yes, poor Willie," he replied, "One of our failures, I'm afraid."

ALEX BELIDA returned to the U.S. in late 1985 after 12 years in Europe, the last three as Voice of America's (U.S. Worldwide radio) correspondent covering Soviet affairs, East/West arms talks and West Germany. His position enabled him to do a great deal oftraveling. Since his return, he has been at V.O.A. headquarters in Washington as the national news editor for coverage of the U.S. He has also started a weekly radio wrap-up on political developments related to the 1988 presidential campaign. He is in Washington with his wife, Pat, and three children, Katherine, Adam and Brian. Pat is a writer and Washington correspondent for Spotlight, a German magazinepublished in English. YOUR SECRETARY has had a political misadventure as of late. Having been elected to West Hartford's Board of Education, then its Town Council, and having served as its Town Attorney, he felt that it was now time for the State Legislature. The Town Committee wanted me to run in one of the town's three legislative districts, which however, was located 100 feet from my house. It was a strange, gerrymandered district which actually appears to be a horseshoe. The only house I could find in the district with such short notice in the midst of the campaign last fall, and in the midst of real estate market hysteria, was virtually uninhabitable. I had to buy it, and I have been working on it ever since. It

is now habitable, but just barely. The election, well - that was another story. I lost by only 492 votes out of almost 10,000 cast. It was generally a positive experience, however, and I did gain the endorsement of both the state and local newspapers. Such is politics. I have remained on the Town Council and have been able to make a meaningful contribution despite my party's minority status. My concentration has been public health and safety, especially with respect to tobacco and guns, and I have been able to get some fairly creative and unusual legislation passed at the municipal level in this regard. STEVE BROWN has recently been made president of Charlee Bear Farms in Brunswick, ME. JOHN CHAPIN was interviewed by "Northeast Magazine" (The Ha;rtford Courant) last March as a result of the spectacular job he has been doing as a Hartford restaurateur. He has a new approach to dining and fun in Hartford called "Lloyds." During the day, Lloyds is a fashionable spot for lunch. In the evening, it becomes an avant garde (for Hartford, relatively conservative everywhere else) nightclub when John brings in interesting jazz groups, folk groups, singers, etc. from all over the country. In the opinion of your Secretary, it is a concept which Hartford has long needed and for which it is rresently quite grateful. GEORGE CONKLIN is sorry to be leaving Connecticut, but he is going to be taking an exciting new job with Westinghouse Automation Division in Pittsburgh. He will be manager of communications, trading and development. He and his wife have just had a daughter, Courtney Claire Conklin. JIM DEMICCO is living in Boston. He has just had another son, Daniel Benjamin (see Births). His first son is Eric Jonathan. ALAN FARNELL has written to your Secretary to inform him that RYAN KUHN is heading up a management team to manage Read Psychological Systems of Chicago. It produces psychological tests to evaluate attitudes toward honesty in applicants for employment. Ryan will serve as chief executive officer and he will continue to live in Chicago. Alan's law firm acted as counsel to Ryan and his management team and their negotiations with the shareholders. Your Secretary enjoyed trading war stories with CARLO FORZANI at a Connecticut Bar Association Seminar in Meridan a couple of months ago. Carlo was in charge of organizing the seminar, and he did a really great job. One interesting story told by Carlo resulted from the mis-application of social science theories to litigation, a feat which has become increasingly common among litigators. You name it, neurolinguistic programming, body language technique, psychological analysis of the color of a juror's clothing, use of cultural differences in communication, all and more are currently being used with definitely mixed success. In Carlo's case, he had a witness on the stand whom he thought was lying. He had read that if the questioner invades the witness' sense of space by coming uncomfortably close to the witness, he can potentially so confuse the witness that he may not lie successfully. The only problem was that Carlo forgot

Headliner After more than a decade working as a journalist in Europe, Alexander J. Belida, Jr. '70 is back in the U.S.A. Before he returned to the States in late 1985, Belida spent three years as Voice of America's correspondent covering Soviet affairs, East/West arms talks and West Germany - a pos1t10n which enabled him to do a great deal of traveling. Since his return, he has been working at Voice of America headquarters in Washington, D.C. as the national news editor for coverage of the U.S. In addition, he has started a weekly radio wrap-up on political developments related to the 1988 presidential campaign. Belida, who holds an M.S. from Columbia another rule: the size of the space is culturally determined. Americans prefer yard-length transactions, the British double it, and people in the Middle East can tolerate as little as eight or nine inches! His witness was Lebanese. Hence, Carlo's approach bothered the witness little, but bothered Carlo so much that Carlo forgot the question! Your Secretary enjoyed chatting with CHARLIE FOSS the other day on Hartford's Constitution Plaza, but Charlie may not have enjoyed the occasion, because he had just been evacuated from one of The Travelers' office buildings as a result of a gas leak. Charlie is currently counsel in The Travelers legal department. At that moment, his real concern was to be able to get back into his office so that he could pick up his clothes which he had brought that morning to go sailing in the afternoon! Charlie and his wife are living in Simsbury, and are enjoying raising twins. EL KENYON is currently employed at Connecticut General in New York City. He is living in Ridgefield, CT. DIX LEESON was in Hartford last

University Graduate School of Journalism, is in Washington with his wife, Pat, and their three clllldren. Pat is also a writer and Washington correspondent for "Spotlight," a German magazine published in English. June for a fund-raising event for the Friends of Trinity Rowing. Your Secretary really enjoyed the opportunity to see him, but was somewhat chagrined at the accommodations, or lack thereof, which we had to offer Dix when he asked if he could stay overnight at your Secretary's ill-fated campaign headquarters. Dix found neither a bed nor a couch to rest his weary bones, but fortunately, was well prepared with his camping equipment which he efficiently set up on your Secrtary's living room rug. He did enjoy your Secretary's breakfast, however. So much so, in fact, that he encouraged me to take up cooking as opposed to politics. In any event, your Secretary would certainly enjoy offering anyone else who wishes to come to Hartford a truly memorable breakfast, but please bring your camping equipment! PAUL (JOSEPH P.) MARYESKI is currently at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland. He is a U.S. Air Force personnel/staff officer there. ERNIE MATTEI is doing a great job as luncheon chairman of the Trinity Club of Hartford. He just recently invited

John Dunham , our hockey coach, who gave an excellent account of the spectacular job our Trinity hockey team did last season. John continues to hope for a hockey rink at Trinity, something which would be a real boost for the team and the entire College community. If anyone is interested in helping or contributing to the cause, please write or call John at the College. A very interesting letter has arrived from CHARLES SAGER who wrote from Bora Bora, French Polynesia: "Just a quick note to let you know there are some crazies in the Class of 1970. My wife, Mary, and I are approaching our two-year mark after leaving New York City in September, 1985 on board our 37foot sailboat. After several months in the Bahamas, a month in the Dominican Republic, 7 months in Panama and miscellaneous time elsewhere, we carefully timed our trip (hah!) to be here for Bastille Day. It may not rival Paris for activities, but I bet Paris does not have a javelin-throwing contest. Here the goal is to knock a coconut off the top of a 35-foot po1e with the javelin. While several hits were registered, no one succeeded in displacing the coconut. Nontheless, I better appreciate the apprehension felt by some of the early explorers when first meeting the local inhabitants. Now the locals don't take your life, just your money. Costs here exceed those in NYC. A box of cereal is $6 and a bottle of rum, $30 - hell on the budget if you like rum on your cereal. One highlight to date was our stay i'n the Galapagos - a wonderful place to visit. The Ecuadorians are doing a superb job of protecting the flora and fauna while letting visitors experience the uniqueness of the place. Because of the lack of predators, the animals have no fear of man. We swam with sea lions after walking through their nesting grounds , rode giant land tortoises, watched the penguins strutting, went nose to beak with frigate birds, practically petted the iguanas and were voyeurs to mating sea turtles. Anyone who can should try to visit. Our next major stop is New Zealand, where we hope to spend six to 12 months. After that it's probably Australia for a similar stay, but plans get very vague out here." Class Agents: Alan S. Farnell, Esq. Ernest J. Mattei, Esq.

C. ROBERT ZELINGER has completed his first year of law practice and is looking forward to an interesting career in corporate law. On to our Tenth Reunion report: In spite of the heat, the Class of '77's' lOth Reunion was wonderful fun. Nothing compares to the warm feeling of seeing old friends and acquaintances, or renewing old ties and establishing new ones. My husband, Peter, and I weren't able to attend the clambake on Friday night, but my eyes and ears on the scene- ANGELEE DIANA CARTA couldn't say enough good things about the neat family and friends get-together. She and her husband, Tris, spent the evening with PAM WALERYSZAK MEYER, Rob Meyer and baby, Daniel; DAVE MARDER and his wife and very new son; CONRAD MEYER and his wife and child; NANCY BARBER and her offspring; and PETER STISSER and his family. I heard a rumor that KAREN MAPP and CHARLIE SPICER were there also. Apparently the biggest mystery of the evening was solved when it was determined that the blue ink on everyone and his baby was rubbing off the canvas tote bags received at registration. It must have been the humidity. The party Saturday night was terrific, but we sorely missed all of you who couldn't make it. Everyone looked very well for ten years' wear. In fact, we have two classmates who looked even younger than when they graduated - JOHN VECCHIO and STEVE STUECK - tell us your secret. Among the tales I heard: PAUL PANTANO is getting married this fall; MERRILL O'BRIEN's wife was due to deliver a child any minute (no, she was not in attendance); TOM HESLIN has a fairly new addition to the family; JOHN GROUS is keeping mum about his constant companion, but he did announce a move to Boston to begin a stint as assistant professor of medicine at Tufts; VALERIE McKEE WILLEY has two kids now as does ROB BUFFUM; and HARRIET SMITH was preparing

to leave for a new position with Proctor and Gamble in London, England (she has since left these shores for those). CHARLIE BATHKE was concerned that he would miss the last live broadcast of "Prairie Home Companion," which apparently took place that night (that afternoon he was urging all in earshot to tape it). We enjoyed seeing LAURIE BLAIR and her husband. LAURIE GRAUEL HEREC and her husband, David, spent much of the evening showing off pictures of their daughter, Madeline. They are happily in medical practice together - Laurie in pediatrics and David in internal medicine in Seekonk, MA. Also in medical practice and with a baby girl named Madeline are DAVE ROSEN and his wife, Kathy. If you hear a familiar voice the next time you are on U.S. Air, it may be DAVE JANCARSKI, who is now a pilot with that organization. No! Not Delta! U.S. Air. Others in attendance included ANDY FRIEDMAN and his wife, Cindy, MATT QUIGLEY, MELODYE WOOD, DAVID MARKS, DEBBIE FLOWER, GAIL ANDREWS, DIDI and GREGG BURNS, SARAH GORDON and her husband, Jim, MIKE SJOGREN, JIM MOSKOW, PETER WOLK, JAN LARSSON, MARK GERCHMAN, MARIAN KUHN, RICK MEYER, JOHN SHANNON, and ALLISON and JOHN ZIEWACZ. As I said earlier, we really missed all of you who were unable to attend. Please keep in touch and tell us what you've been up to.

Friends ofRobert S. Herbst '80 call him Indiana Jones after the intrepid and daring film hero. "It's because I go places no one wants to go," explains Herbst. While Herbst is away, he doesn't forget Trinity. He was packing for a five-week climbing expedition in Nepal last March when his girlfriend suggested that he take along the Trinity pennant he'd bought for her at Homecoming ... He did so and subsequently sent this missive to the College: "Accordingly, I enclose a photograph ofTrinity's name being unfurled on the north summit ofLuza Tse (which is a bit under 19,000 feet) . I submit that this is the highest a Trinity flag has been flown," he wrote. "This was not exactly your basic lawyer's vacation," Herbst said later. "It was hard, harsh and arduous - I lost 17 pounds - but it was definitely satisfying and worth doing." Only his Sherpa guide accompanied him on the final assault which took seven hours. What he saw when he reached the peak was "a lot more mountains" and the horizon which looked "pretty close." When not trekking to the Himalayas, Herbst can be found practicing law with the firm of White and Case in New York City - or participating in competitive weight lifting events. In August, he placed first in his weight class at the U.S. Bench Press Championships held in New Haven, CT. He hopes to make a return trip to Nepal in a few years. However, he says, the next flag he'll unfurl may bear the legend "I'd rather be sailing." â&#x20AC;˘

Hello, fellow classmates! Our 5th Reunion was a rousing success, thanks to a fabulous job by the Reunion committee and a spirited turn-out by many members of the Class of '82. Elections were held and, in addition to YOURS TRULY as new Class Secretary, our Class Presidents are now SUE ENGDAHL UPTON and BARB SHERMAN. They have the wonderful task of putting together our lOth! As for me,

I'll relish my new job, but making this first deadline wasn't easy. I've decided to adopt my predecessor's format (thanks for the great job, Tom!) and report the news by geographical region. That way you can see who's coming and going in your area. I hope that by knowing who's living near you, you'll be encouraged to keep in touch and attend Trinity Club functions. (They're really fun, you know.) So here goes ... Sticking somewhat close to Trin are ... JENNIFER LEE RAFFERTY and her husband, JOHN ('79) who recently bought a home in West Hartford where Jennifer has a job teaching. DOUG ROLLINS reports that he became a dentist in May, 1987. LISA D'ADDEO is the new coordinator of special affairs for the Science Museum of Connecticut in West Hartford. She must have been kept quite busy with the Museum's 60th anniversary this past June. DAVE MARTIN is in town working as a compliance administrator for Phoenix Equity Planning Corp. CLAUDIA HART is back from the Peace Corps and can now be found at the Connecticut Valley Radiological Group by day and pursuing her master's and teaching certificate at St. Joseph College in the off-hours.

SUSANNE HEALEY reports lots of news. She married Attila Herczeg in August 1986, graduated from Suffolk University Law School this June, and is now working as an attorney with Atwood & Cherry in Boston. BETSY HAYS is engaged to Tom Carroll and will be married in Nantucket this October. They'll be living in Melrose and Betsy continues working at Massachusetts Financial Services in Boston. HENRY CROPSEY is now practicing law in Springfield. He and his wife, MELINDA ('81), have a new home in Longmeadow. Slightly to the north, KAREN PETERSEN reports that she is enjoying the life of a student and is also on the

Class of 1982

board of directors of the Vermont YWCA. MARYANN CONNORSKRIKORIAN has a new job teaching elementary students at the Grinnell School in Derry, NH. And then there's the New York contingent ... PATTY DAVIS (to whom I owe a debt of gratitude for a lot of this news) has a new job with the advertising firm of Lawrence, Charles, Free & Lawson as a senior media planner. You've probably seen her ads ... CLAUDIA PIPER reports that the next phase of her education begins this fall at the Cornell Business School. Good luck, Claudia. MARTHA BRACKENRIDGE is a business manager at Sotheby's . MATT PACE, who showed up at Reunion looking the part, is practicing law in The Big Apple. JUDY BOLTON is working for the Anti-Defamation League, and I'm still seeing her by-line on book reviews in the Hartford Courant from time to time. In nearby New Jersey, you can find BILL HOLDEN (formerly known as "The Senator") who, much to my surprise, is not in politics but is working for Oldsmobile. He and his wife, Whitney, have a one-year-old son named (what else?).William, Jr. Working my way down the East Coast, I find that GINNY KNETZGER (winner of "the biggest rock" award at Reunion) is marrying Jimmy Unger in October. Ginny is in sales for Metropolitan Life. SANDY FRAZIER CONNELLY reports that she's moving back to Philly from Houston with her two-year-old, Katie.

Both Jim and Steve had a rough spring with a week in Hawaii on the company and another week of sailing in Bermuda with CHRIS LEARY. Some things never change!

Last anyone heard from TOM CROWELL, he was headed for San Francisco to pursue work and play. And now for the truly foreign contingent ... CARL RAPP did make it to Reunion, thereby gaining distinction as the alumnus to travel farthest to relive college fraternity days. ANDREA SCULLY missed my wedding by a matter of days because she was called back to London, yet again, to manage an art gallery. However, Patty Davis tells me that she's on her way back to NYC to begin work at another gallery on the Upper East Side. Taking her place in England will be CHUCK BUFFUM and his wife, Ann. Chuck, in my estimation, is very lucky to have been transferred (for how long is it, Chuck?). CONNIE SMITH writes that the Bank of Boston, where she is employed as an audit specialist, is transferring her to Buenos Aires, Argentina for one year. Adios, Connie! And my news? As those of you know who saw me at Reunion (or at my wedding), on May 30 of this year I became Sarah Glynn Peters, happy wife of Tim. I just started a new job at Liberty Travel in Hartford doing sales and promotions/ special events. And we're now in the process of house hunting. Talk about major life changes. If I missed (or misreported) any news, please help me out next time. Write or

call me with all of your news. It's a thrill seeing your name in print ... really! And if you don't find me, I'll be sure to find you. 'Til next time then. Class Agents: Patricia Hooper AndrewW. Stephenson Wilfred J. Talbot Laura Wilcox Rokoszak 25 Blauvelt Ave. REUNION Ramsey, NJ 07446

So much news, so much news. First and foremost, I would just like to make certain that all is cleared for RACHEL MANN . Since our last Reporter, Rachel has corresponded with me in order to establish her whereabouts. She is still studying at the University of Virginia, and is trying to reach AMY FULTON. Amy, simultaneously, is trying to reach Rachel. "Amy," wrote Rachel, "how serendipitous that only a few weeks ago I was thinking about you and wondering where you are." Hopefully, all connections have been made by now. I am soon to request the assistance of these two classmates as we begin the alumni search for our Reunion. And speaking of our 5-YEAR REUNION, it's never too early to start planning. Yes, that's right, one yearfrom this June we will be "reunionizing" and it's important that we all be there. So if you know the mysterious hideouts of any classmates, start keeping track of them. Call parents, friends, the IRS and get these people firmly in your address book.

TERESA JOHNSON HARTSOE presented a research paper in Washington at the National Science Teacher's Association convention. She is presently preparing two papers for publication in the Journal of Chemical Education. Last, but not least, it's time for the Class of '83 "Record Review." You haven't seen them on MTV, but they are certainly soon to appear. TIM YASUI and his band, "Voyeur," recently recorded a real "headbanger" at The Gallery in Hartford. Tim is the drummer and backing vocalist on "First Glance" and it is pretty hot stuff. In addition to playing in the band, Tim has completed his M.B.A. in marketing at UHart and will soon move to Hollywood, CA to work as a marketing executive for Capitol Records. Listen for Tim, coming to a radio station near you real soon. Life for me in northern Jersey continues to be fun and radon-free. My new-old house is a source of constant adventure. As I type this I am up to my elbows in wallpaper paste and drill bits. My husband and I hope to make a guest appearence with Bob Vila to receive video coverage and limited recognition of our fearless attempt to gut a bathroom. (Buy condo - much easier!) In the meantime, keep those cards and letters and alumni trustee ballots coming in, and please don't forget June's Reunion! Class Agents: Amy Jo Bennet AnneN. Ginsburgh Bruce Silvers

Greetings. My apologies for missing the deadline on the last column. Thanks, Alumni Office, for filling in during my latest period of irresponsibility. KATE VANWAGENEN will be slaving away at Harvard Business School by the time you read this. I saw her in July, and she was very excited about joining other Cambridge-ites in the pursuit of whatever it is all of us are pursuing. Kate's just pursuing it with a lot of work early on! Congratulations. Yes, KURT KUSIAK has a conscience! He even wrote me a letter and reported that he is "wrought with shame." Despite the fact that he sent bribe lira and a picture of himself (taken on the ski slopes just before he snowplowed over two middle-aged women in Austria), I would have forgiven him anyway .. . for his harsh words reported two issues ago in this illustrious magazine. He's still stationed in Germany and will be for the next year and a half. Ah, it' s nice to know the free world is in good hands. JON DiLUZIO resides somewhere in the northwestern portion of the United States these days. I miss my old neighbor. We spontaneously decided to have a party a while back (boy, this really is old news!) at 251 Asylum Street. That's where we lived. I still live here. CHRIS PALMA, RAMONA STILLEY, DAVE LENAHAN, and PHIL JAPY represented the Class of 1984. KATIE FINCK had the patience to listen to me compare grocery shopping in

Hartford to the experience of grocery shopping in Manhattan. In Hartford, there's room for two carts to pass each other in the aisles; after you leave, you put your groceries in your own car. In New York, you take your groceries home in a cab, especially if you're making lasagna for 30 people the next night. Just thought you'd like some food for thought. Sorry. I tried to call GRAEME FRAZIER one day before his wedding. He wasn't there. He was attending Wednesday Night Club. So what if it was Thursday. In the weddings category, congratulations go to GEORGE KEANNA who married Sandra Rossignol last August (see Weddings). He plans to finish up dentistry school at Georgetown in May of 1988. Also, CHANDLEE JOHNSON (affectionately known as "Chandlier") is engaged to M. Lawrence Kuhn of Wilmington (see Engagements). They plan a December wedding. SUE SHERRILL plans a September wedding - if she can fit it in with her busy schedule of seeing Trinity friends and working as a personal chef. JORDAN BAIN is engaged to Anne Baughman of Cincinnati (see Engagements). Jordan makes an entry in the personals column - "Lenny, you better come and bring food to the wedding!" (Hey gang, I don't create it- I just report it!) BRYAN CHEGWIDDEN has relocated to Boston after finishing law school at Yale. I take it as a compliment that he's been spotted around Boston singing "Jane's Getting Serious" as he wanders to and from bar review. He'll be working for Ropes & Gray after he finishes a trip to Europe in August. NANCY KATZ tried to kill me by making me jaywalk across 34th Street one lunch time in April. I breathed a sigh of relief after making it across, only to finish lunch and experience deja vu, but this time on Madison Avenue in the pouring rain. I spent part of the spring working as a consultant inN ew York, so I had the chance to risk my life with Nancy and then meet LORRAINE SAUNDERS for lunch. Lorraine and I spent the spring pondering back stairways and tangled webs, and other existential mental processes. In July, I saw Nancy and Lorraine, along with LINDA KAPNEK, AMY SNYDER, MICHELE ROSNER and Kate VanWagenen in Philadelphia. Thank goodness we were in a suburban setting so the truck traffic was limited. I felt a little safer since Nancy was around. In any case, Amy was studying for the bar. She'll be working as the prototype for the new series "Bean town Law" this fall. Michele is still working for Citibank, but she has moved into the human resources realm. Linda is getting ready for her wedding to my favorite Californian in October. Between flights to the east coast, she's working for National Westminster. What was that about gooey nuts and yummy sauce? I ran into DAVE HILL at a big Hartford event this summer. Sure enough, not far away was BRIAN DRISCOLL. Both seemed well. Dave is going to law school at the University of Connecticut. HILLARY MAYER is an assistant manager for Broadcast Production at Emerson, Lane, Fortuna in Boston. She sounds wonderfully excited about her move - "new job, new city, new apart-

ment, new people ... " ROBERT HEMMES is in Baltimore working as a research analyst for the investment firm Alex, Brown & Sons. GREG DeMARCO spent the first half of the year on the U.S. Coast Guard cutter, Glacier, on "Operation Deep Freeze 87." He was part of the ship's last trip to Antarctica before it was decommissioned. ROB VAN TUYL continues to work on his master's at the University of Miami. Somehow, working and Miami seem to be contradictory to me, but oh well. LAURA DARBY worked at the Pan Am Games and for the USOC as a trainer this past summer. She reported seeing several Trinity folks at the Boston Marathon where she was working at the finish line as a trainer. ANN BURCROFF has been an environmental analyst for the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection for the past year. She's working in the hazardous materials management unit and is enjoying it. In Greenwich, MILLIE GROO teaches at the Eagle Hill School for children with learning disabilities. After his first year at Harvard Business School, PETER RYAN spent the summer working at Goldman Sachs in New York. NANCY ADAMS is in publicity/booking at Mobius, an artist-run performance space in Boston, MA. DAN BARACH is still studying at the Harvard Business School. MICHAEL BRONZINO is a commercial accounts representative for Aetna Casualty and Surety in Purchase, NY. DAN FLYNN is president of Metro West Automotive Resources, Inc. in Framingham, MA.

A note from JOHN MARCHAND reports he is alive and well and working in New York in international trade for I W Commodities as a cocoa trader. LIZ BRENNAN spent the first part of the summer studying for the bar in Hartford. She'll be working in Greenwich in the fall. Also around Hartford, you can see ED McGEHEE , although I haven't seen him lately. KEVIN O'CONNOR joined us for the summer, too - Chicken Joe's won't be the same when Kevin departs for his second year of law school in Boston. I've taken a new job with a real estate consulting firm in Hartford. It's right

next door to my apartment and my hot dog st and - as well as a construction zone - so it's pretty convenient. I'm enjoying it a lot. I'm off to the School of Management at Yale a year from now I decided t o defer so I can make sure the hot dog business is on firm ground for my two-year hiatus. Oh yes - I forgot to mention a letter I got from WEEZIE KERR the other week. What a nice surprise. She's moved to Washington where she'll be attending graduate school in the fall. PETER STINSON and I had an interesting conversation in the summer after I finally tracked him down to Plum Island, WI. This is not a joke. He was really ' working for the Coast Guard there. He's going to be teaching this fall, and I'll tell you all the details about where it isn't and how it isn't the kind of school it sounds like in the next column. For now, thanks to all of you who wrote and called. As Dennis Miller would say, I'm outa here. Class Agents: Todd M. Knutson David R. Lenahan Jane W. Melvin

Welcome to the Fall '87 issue of the Reporter. Since our last issue there has been news of engagements, weddings, adventures, promotions, moves and humorous anecdotes relayed to me.

here to stay. Enough of that ... on to what you've all been waiting for: hot news flashes and juicy gossip! DEBBIE LIANG has the job of my dreams ... she's an assistant manager at Laura Ashley. DIANE DEROS spent the summer poolside in Baltimore. When not by the pool, Diane was in search of the perfect vodka collins.

Other '87ers in law school include NANI MARCHAND (UConn), LANCE BABBIT (Fordham), J.P. BRUYNES (Vanderbilt), PAUL MORICO (Columbia), and BARRY FREEDMAN (Boston University).

erhostel Program. Betsy was working at Upward Bound. She is now teaching French at Worcester Academy. JAMIE HARPER sent me what has to be the most humorous account of life in the world of grownups (?). Jamie had a minor speaking role in "Corkscrew," a movie filmed outside of Philadelphia this summer. I'm not quite sure what "Corkscrew" is about, but from Jamie's account, it has to be hysterical. Jamie appears in a scene in which a nine-foottall jelly doughnut attacks people in a bar. The doughnut is later attacked by six of the bar's patrons, armed only with loaves of French bread. Thanks for all the mail. For those of you who have yet to write, do not forget that my sources lurk everywhere. In spite of my many sources, I want to hear from YOU! Sit down this very minute and write tome.
