Bookstores, Arts Annex To Open in September ••••••••••••••••••••••••• The opening of school in September will also bring the grand opening of two very different campus bookstores. Barnes & Noble will operate bookstores in Mather Hall and in Hallden. The campus store - formerly run by the Follett College Store Corp. in the basement of Mather- will be renovated and will continue to serve students' needs. Textbooks, along with toothpaste, Trinity T -shirts and other such sundries, will be sold there. The second store will be a brand-new venture - an academic trade bookstore. Located in a renovated, 4,000-squarefoot area of Hallden (in the space previously occupied by the computer

lab), this bookstore will be aimed at attracting customers from among the faculty and professionals in Greater Hartford. Carrying 12,000 to 15,000 tides, it will be designed to encourage "contemplative browsing" by adults and also will have a children's book section. Other features will be a knowledgeable staff and a rapid, special order service. Associate Academic Dean). Ronald Spencer, who served on an ad hoc bookstore committee this past year, noted that an important factor in the selection ofBames & Noble as the new vendor was the company's proven ability to provide textbooks for students in a timely fashion. Spencer said the committee believes that the new Barnes & Noble bookstore " will serve as a magnet for serious readers in this area who now go to Northampton, Cambridge, New Haven

and New York" for books they can't find locally. Because of its visible location and because the bookstore will have evening and weekend hours, the committee also hopes that campus visitors going to Austin Arts Center and Cinestudio will patronize the new facility. Barnes & Noble will bear the cost of renovating the two bookstores, but both design and construction are subject to the College's approval. The opening of the new Mathematics, Computing and Engineering Center has opened up additional space in Hallden that's being transformed into an arts annex. "This is the first step in easing the overcrowded conditions at Austin Arts Center," said John Woolley, director of facilities planning and management. By next full, classrooms for the department of fine arts, offices for art history and

studio arts faculty, studios for studio arts faculty and a studio for upper-level arts students will be housed in Hallden along with the slide collection previously located at Austin Arts Center.

Summer Challenge Program Deters Science Dropouts •••••••••••••••••••••••••

A $50,000 gift from the Aetna Life and Casualty Foundation will help a group of entering Trinity students succeed in their study of mathematics and science. The Aetna gift will play a leadership role in funding the Trinity Summer Challenge Program, which is expected to begin inJuly with a group of some 15 incoming freshmen. Participants in the program will be selected from among those entering students who have expressed an interest in mathematics and science but whose pre-college background in these areas lacks sufficient depth. Challenge participants will get a jump on adjusting to campus life, developing better study habits, and improving various analytic and communication skills. "The impetus of this program is to keep students from dropping out of math and science," says Challenge director Cynthia Butos. Whether or not the students decide to major in math or science, the quantitative skills they acquire will serve them well throughout their undergraduate years, Butos adds. Economics and psychology, for instance, are other fields of study that rely heavily on quantitative ability. In the first summer of Challenge, students will spend four weeks living in a dormitory with Trinity undergraduates who will serve as tutors. The new students will undertake a non-credit course of study taught by Trinity faculty in the natural sciences, social sciences, and the humanities. This stage of the program will emphasize oral and written communication skills in the context of scientific inquiry, critical thinking, and quantitative reasoning. Students who successfully complete

Though not an alumnus ofTrinity, Reeves knew of the College through George Will '62.

the summer program and their freshman year at Trinity will return for a second summer, during which they will take a course in quantitative reasoning in science. They also will build on skills developed during the first phase of the program. Among the Trinity faculty and administrators who will participate in Challenge are Dina L. Anselmi, associate professor of psychology; Timothy V. Craine, director of Trinity's Aetna Life & Casualty Foundation Mathematics Center; Henry A. DePhillips, Jr., Krieble Professor of Chemistry; Kirk Peters, assistant dean of students; David Winer, dean of students; Gail H. Woldu , assistant dean of the faculty; and Diane C. Zannoni, professor of economics.

Economist Studies Working Mothers' Effect on Children ••••••••••••••••••••••••• A mother's working outside the home may have a negative effect on her child's intellectual development during its first year but a positive effect during its second and third years, according to a Trinity labor economist. "We're encouraged by our findings," says Assistant Professor of Economics Adam]. Grossberg, who conducted a study with Francine D. Blau of the University oflllinois. "They suggest that any negative impact of a mother's working outside the home is limited to

ALONG TilE \\' ALK

the earliest part ofher child's life." The study by Grossberg and Blau is one of the most comprehensive nationwide investigations ever done on the subject and one of the first to clearly distinguish between the effects of a mother's working in the first year and in subsequent years of a child's life. "All else being equal, a woman who works 100 percent of the weeks during her child's first year of life is expected to lower the child's standardized score by about 5.8 points" on a test with an average score of 100, Blau says. "A woman who works 100 percent of the weeks in the second and later years is expected to raise her child's score by about 4.2 points." Although Grossberg and Blau find that recovery reassuring, they believe that the negative first-year effects raise a significant concern. By 1988, 52 percent of all women with 1-year-old or younger infants were in the labor force. Grossberg says the findings support the improvement ofleave policies for parents of children who are 1 or younger. T hey also reinforce the need for employers to provide or subsidize quality day care. Grossberg and Blau offer two possible explanations for the positive impact in years 2 through 4:

outputs. Thus, the family invests time and various goods and services that it purchases in the production of children. What Grossberg and Blau studied were the factors that influence the process through which children are produced. The study was based on a nationwide sample of women of all races and incomes between the ages of21 and 29. The cognitive abilities of their 87 4 children, ages 3 and 4, were tested in 1986 using the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test. Preschoolers were used in the study to avoid the issue of differing school quality. Grossberg and Blau note that selfselection may have influenced the results: that is, women who choose to work outside the home may be different from a random sample of all women. The authors also warn that the study is not sufficiendy long term to draw absolute conclusions about overall eventual effects on children. The study was issued by the National Bureau ofEconomic Research Inc., a private non-profit research organization. A story about the study ran on the national wire of the Associated Press and was carried by newspapers, magazines, and television and radio stations across the country in February.

Chaplain Search Draws To a Close ••••••••••••••••••••••••• A new College chaplain is expected to be appointed by the fall term, according to Dean ofStudents David Winer. Winer, who chairs the seven-member search committee, said that approximately 80 candidates have been considered for the position. In addition to being interviewed by the search committee, candidates have met with students, alumni, trustees and faculty while on campus. Several candidates have been asked back to campus for second, and third visits; some have served as guest celebrants at Sunday services in the Chapel. All candidates for the chaplaincy must be ordained Episcopal priests, as the Chapel is under the jurisdiction of the Episcopal bishop of Connecticut. "We're pleased with the number, and diversity, of the candidates," Winer said. "The search committee will recommend two or more candidates to President Gerety toward the end of the spring term. Then, the appointment must be approved by the board of trustees." The R ev. Dr. Alan Tull, Trinity's

Broader contact with other adults and children in the day care setting stimulated the child in a way that the home environment did not. Increased family income benefitted the child. "The increase in family income that occurs when the mother works means that more resources are available to the child," says Grossberg. "This increased availability of resources does not offSet the negative impact of the mother's absence from the home during the child's first year of life, but it seems to be the driving force behind the positive effects during the child's second and subsequent years." Grossberg says the study was based on an economic model of the family developed by Gary Becker and other economists during the last 30 years. According to Grossberg, Becker has suggested that the family is in many ways similar to a business, in that it uses various inputs to produce a number of

chaplain for 25 years, retired at the end of the spring semester last year. A native of Utah, he is now serving as Episcopal Chaplain at Brigham Young Unviersity and rector of St. Mary's Episcopal Church in Provo, U tah. H e lives in Orem and continues his work on a book on the Biblical view of sexuality. His address is Box 853, Provo, Utah 84603. Friends and colleagues of Tull have commissioned a stonecarving in the Chapel in his honor. John R ose, College organist and director of chapel music, said that the gift seemed an appropriate way to mark Tull's 25 years, almost half the life of the C hapel. "During his tenure, Alan oversaw many projects in the Chapel - the organ, organ case and music gallery, addition ofb ells to the carillon, stained glass windows on the N orth Porch, memorial garden, sedilia, entryway, gates to the Friendship Chapel, and others. H e was very sensitive to the integrity of the building and worked in coordination with the Gifts and Memorials Committee on these projects. It just seemed appropriate that a gift to him should become part of the fabric of the building," R ose said. The carving was executed by Hartford artist j ohn Zito, Jr. , who also carved the Seabury corbel commemorating coeducation at T rinity. Located near the door to the Chapel tower, the portrait incorporates Tull 's many interests cats, music, ancient Greek, C hristianity, liturgy, ritual, morality, teaching, preaching, and philosophy - and bears a Greek inscription composed by Hobart Professor of Classics John Williams. Tull returned to the campus in May for the unveiling of the carving.

Academic Calendar Gets Revisions ••••••••••••••••••••••••• Long- standing concerns about the College's academic calendar have resulted in several changes, approved by the fac ulty in N ovember. In recent years, the fac ulty have discussed the starting date of classes, the proximity of fall term exams to Christmas, the density of the fall term (the ratio

In February's fund-raiser for the senior class, emcees Scott Mattoon '91, left, and John Claud '91 entertained the crowd with jokes and original songs, including one written for former emcee Lee Coffin '85, who was present as a judge. As usual, the 13 entrants, competing in campus wear, beach attire and street wear, added ingenious interpretations to the contest. Mr. Senior Class, Mark Russell '91, fourth from right, wore calf-length "interview" socks and dress shoes during the swimwear competition and handed out resumes . Mr. Swim Team, Luke K.

O pen Period has traditionally been the days afforded students each semester for work requiring larger blocks of time than is normally available in the academic year. Faculty established this week for intensive study, olf- can1pus research or field trips. H owever, Open Period has come to be considered by some students and fac ulty as vacation, rather than study time. To remedy these concerns, the faculty

voted to change the timing of O pen Period and rename it R eading W eek. In the fall semester, the week will take place one week earlier, so that it more evenly divides the time between the first day of classes and the T hanksgiving R ecess. T he fac ulty also adjusted the week's placement in the spring term, scheduling it for fo ur weeks after the beginning of classes, and reduced Spring Vacation fro m two weeks to one. In 1991 -92, R eading W eek will take place October 14-1 8 and February 17- 21; Spring Vacation will be March 21-29. Commencement will take place one week earlier

and will no longer fall on the M emorial Day weekend. "The fall semester Reacling Week will typically be scheduled so that there is a full week of classes after it ends and befo re the mid-term," said Dr. Randolph Lee, chair of the faculty's Curriculum Committee, which proposed the revisions. "This rescheduling offers relief for students and faculty from the fast pace of the fall term. The changes in the spring term also improve the pacing, clivicling it into thirds, with about four weeks of classes before Reading Week, four before Spring Vacation, and a final period of five weeks. And, it should be easier for students to get back into the classroom rhythm after just a one-week vacation."

Recycling Program Makes Progress ••••••••••••••••••••••••• If a private eye went snooping around campus to check out how the new recycling program is doing, this investigator would soon discover that office wastebaskets provide an excellent source of dues. Before recycling started, the end of a typical working day meant a wastebasket filled to the rim - mostly with discarded paper.

Now very often those same wastebaskets will be practically empty- but the recycling containers right beside them will be chock-fu.ll of paper. Last summer, months before required by a new state law mandating recycling, the College's administrative offices voluntarily began recycling paper. By mid-April, the Builclings and Grounds staffhad collected approximately 40 tons of recyclable office paper from around campus; that paper was sold to a recycling firm. In addition, since the new law took effect in January, about 10 tons of cardboard and five tons of newspapers have been recycled as well as leaves and brush, scrap metal, waste motor oil and batteries from College-owned vehicles. The law also requires the recycling of bottles and cans, but Hartford has a grace period for that- until at least midsummer - because the regional recycling plant is not yet operationaL "I feel confident we're going in the right direction," said KyungJ Park, manager of Trinity's Central Services department and acting coordinator of the campus recycling program. Recycling benefits not only the environment, Park pointed out, but also the College budget. As landfill space becomes more scarce-two-thirds of the

Therefore, every ton of material that is recycled saves the College money. This spring, the recycling program was expanded to include student residence halls. Park plans to work closely with the Office ofResidential Life to heighten awareness among students. One undergraduate currently working to spread the word about both recycling and resource conservation is history major James J Kusmierczak '92 of Granite City, Ill. Along with other students, Kusmierczak helped organize a spring symposium that featured state officials, business people and others who work on environmental issues. Establishing a smoothly-running recycling operation at Trinity has required "a little more of a process" than it might for a business with many workers in one central location, noted Business Manager and Budget Director Alan R. Sauer. This, he explained, is partly because the College has numerous builclings of different types and ages spread across a large area. Also, its population varies from students who live in dorms to employees who work in offices. The flip side of recycling is resource conservation; steps have been taken in that area too.

Lowe, who worked on a shrimp farm in Hawaii, says that a major part of his research will be his study in Ecuador because of its importance in aquaculture. Highland Park, Ill . native David Molner will study "Classical Rhetoric and Modem Argumentation" in the United Kingdom, France and Germany. Molner, who designed his own major ofphilosophy and language, hopes to determine the factors that led to the decline of the European tradition of rhetoric, dating from the medieval universities. He's observed great change in the structure of argumentation as well as a collapse in the structure of the English language. "People don't seem to argue with one another according to any structure any more," he observes. " It's awfully shapeless. People don't seem to understand what give-and- take means, and we don't teach it in school any more." Molner says he has his own "speculation" on these questions and will investigate them by listening to people argue in academic, political and judicial settings. He's especially interested in visiting universities founded before the Renaissance. At Trinity he's been a member ofthe crew team and the Tripod and Observer staffS. He was named to Phi Beta Kappa in December and has an article on Eastern Europe appearing in the Trinity Papers.

Karen M. Ward ' 91 Carolyn B . Boylan ' 90 S enior Karen Ward and Carolyn Boylan '90, research assistant in the psychology department, authored a

paper with Dr. Priscilla Kehoe, associate professor of psychology and director of the neuroscience program. The three presented the paper- "Opioid Receptor Systems Differentially Interact with the DA System to Affect Behaviors ofNeonatal Rats"- at the April meeting in New York of the Eastern Psychological Association . T heir research shows how the endorphin system in the brain ties into the dopamine system to help in quieting stress and perhaps promote reward or reinforcement. According to Professor Kehoe, they are among the first researchers to study the role of the dopamine system in infant organisms.

Faculty Promotions T hree faculty members have been promoted to the rank offull professor, effective Sept. 1, 1991. They are: Judy Dworin '70, to professor of theater and dance; Alden R .

Long active as a Trinity volunteer, Scott Reynolds '63 has focused his energies in the admissions area recently. The results, according to the Admissions Office, have been superb. Reynolds, a past president of the Trinity Club of New York, was instrumental in forming the Trinity Club of Northern New Jersey. Now he serves as the liaison between the Admissions Office and the 15 to 20 alumni admissions volunteers in his region. In the past two years, these hardworking volunteers have represented Trinity at 33 college nights. "This is a record number by any area club!" says Mary Whalen, assistant director of admissions. Reynolds assigns volunteers to represent Trinity at local college nights, coordinates activities such as the receptions for incoming freshmen held typically in August and assigns alumni volunteers to interview prospective students (13 in the past two years). He also coordinates the volunteers' "congratulations calls" to applicants who have been accepted for admission to Trinity. This Trinity dad - daughter Jane is a member ofthe class of'92- is "a major force in our Alumni Admissions Program," Whalen says. "I can always count on Scott - he gives truly 100 percent and he's a thoroughly enjoyable person to work with." Reynolds' other roles as a Trinity volunteer are many: He is chairman of the Alumni Fund, a vice president of the executive committee of the National Alumni Association and a class agent. He was a leader in organizing his class's record-breaking Reunion gift in 1988.

wrongful transrrussion of diseases, workplace gender discrirrllnation and harassment, sexual-orientation discrirrllnation, and AIDSassociated concerns. With each chapter Friedman gives a short, summary answer and then explores at length the legal and judicial arguments for that answer. Writing in Booklist, Ray Olson says: "Friedman doesn't say that he's fashioned a real godsend for anyone interested in sex law. But, in tact, he has."

"Fror)1 the time of Constantine's conversion to that of Oliver Cromwell's civil war," writes Kaufinan, "Christianity and politics were often so closely joined that it is difficult now to tell whether we are looking back at religious or political convictions." In Redeeming Politics Kaufinan explores the major attempts throughout history to connect religious salvation with the continuance or reforn1 of various governments. He begins with Paul's perplexing words to the persecuted Christians in Rome - "Let every

person be subject to the goverrung authorities for there is no authority except from God." He then exarillnes how later Christians used fom1S of "political theology" to combine the romance of conquest and empire with hopes for political and religious redemption. Offering incidents from the fourth through the 16th centuries, Kaufinan discusses such individuals as Constantine, Augustine, Charlemagne, Pope Gregory VII , Dante, Zwingli, Calvin, and Cromwell to show how chroruclers and apologists tried to explain both success and failure in political campaigns as related to God's plan for a triumphant Christian culture. He reveals a single recurring apologetic strategy, which evolved into an important part of the Christian traditions. Anthony Grafton of Princeton University says: "Redeeming Politics sheds a flood of historical illumination on the relation of church and state in the West. Kaufinan's reading of Augustine's City if God as a revision, rather than a rejection, of Eusebius's apologetic interpretation of politics and history is particularly impressive. His juxtaposition of Calvin and Bernard is a wonderfully unexpected and convincing parallel, one that will have a seisrruc effect on undergraduate teaching .... Many well-informed political scientists and historians will find the continuities traced here a revelation."

KANT AND THE PROBLEM OF METAPHYSICS

by Ma.rtin Heidegger Fourth edition, enlarged translated by Richard Tcifi Indiana Uruversity Press (Bloorrungton), 1990, 224 pages, $35 "Heidegger's Kant-book, one of the more controversial but also insightful examinations of Kant's First Critique, is at the same time an important key to Heidegger's arumating concerns in Being and Time. Richard Taft's new translation, remarkably faithful to both

the letter and the spirit of Heidegger's text, is to be commended for its high standard of philosophic translation," writes Charles M. Sherover of this edition. Since its first publication in 1929, Heidegger's book on Kant's Critique cif Pure Reason has attracted attention, both for its contribution to 20th-century Kant scholarship and as a key work in Heidegger's own development. This completely new translation is the first to make use of the expanded fourth German edition, edited by Heidegger himself three years before his death. This enlarged text includes a surrunary of Heidegger's famous lectures and his dispute with Ernst Cassirer in March, 1929, which led to the book's writing. Richard Taft is research assistant in the department of philosophy at Trinity and fom1er Fulbright Fellow at the Hegel Archive of the Ruhr University in West Germany. THE TRAGEDY OF REASON Toward a Platonic Conception ofLogos

David Roochnik '73 Routledge, N.Y., 1990, 222 pages, $14.95 paperback The classical conception of reason ~ogos) has been attacked in the modern era by critics ranging from Descartes, who alleged logos was imprecise, to Derrida, who hopes to liberate Western thought from its ties to "logocentrism." Philosophers from Nietzsche on have condemned Plato as the chief architect of tl1is classical conception of reason. As originally formulated in Nietzsche's The Birth cif Tragedy, Plato is seen as the enemy of tragedy, which for Nietzsche was the most vital art form of Greek culture. In The Tragedy cif Reason, Roochnik defends Plato against his accusers by using a mode of exposition demonsrtating Plato's position. He presents the Platonic conception of logos in confrontation with texts by Homer, Hesiod, Heraclitus, Aristotle, Descartes, Rorty and Derrida and shows how the Platonic conception of logos is well aware of the strength of its opponents. The result is a depiction of Plato as a "tragic philosopher" whose idea of logos is portrayed as an affirmation of its limits as well as its strengths. Charles L. Griswold, Jr. '73, of the depart-

RoBERTAjENC KES

ho doesn't love a new building on campus? The $9.9million Mathematics, Computing, and Engineering Center (MCEC) has quickly won the affection of students, faculty and administrators for its crisp, efficient classrooms and laboratories, rich design details, and handsome, spacious meeting rooms and lobbies. The new building, whose construction was a major priority of the three-year, $50-million Campaign for Trinity, houses the Computing Center, the Mathematics Center, and the departments of mathematics and of engineering and computer science. Located at the south end of the campus, the 48,000-squarefoot, four-story structure contains five classrooms, two seminar rooms, eight laboratories, faculty offices and student-faculty lounges. Classrooms in the building are used for classes across the curriculum, so that all students and faculty can enjoy learning in beautiful, state- of-theart classrooms.

"From the project's very beginning four years ago," says John Langeland, director of computing and communications systems and chairman of the building committee, "This was a building that was designed to work in terms of com-

puting and engineering. The principal design criteria from the College's standpoint were efficiency and function. And, in spite of those limitations, it has turned out to be a beautiful addition to the campus.

"For example, because of its heavy computing use, the building will need frequent rewiring for data communications, so we insisted on cable trays in all the corridors. The architect translated that functional requirement into the beautiful

vaulted corridors, where the cable trays, still fully functional, are completely hidden from view. "Everyone who works in the building is struck by the ease of using it, whether it's computer projection in the classrooms or wiring

between the offices. People who don't know the building are struck by its appearance. The real story is invisible; those of us who work here see the thoughtful design that makes the building work," said Langeland.

"I've heard nothing but p9sitive comments about the building," says Ralph E. Walde, associate professor of engineering and computer science. "The students like it very much, and the new building creates a better environment for computing majors." The networking of computers, linking data from various sources all over campus, and the improved classroom projection system make it much easier for professors to teach computer-related materials, he said. David Ahlgren, chairman of engineering and computer science, echoed his colleague. "It's a marvelous building," Ahlgren said, noting that in engineering's previous home, the laboratory space was in a basement prone to flooding. Most of MCEC's laboratories are located above ground and feature lots of windows. The new building is also a boon for administrative computing at Trinity. "Here we have a facility that is actually designed for computing," said Langeland. Raised floors which allow room for wiring for computer hardware to pass underneath are just one building feature. The MCEC also has brought under one roof the computing staff and hardware previously spread out over three buildings on campus. For all its beauty and functionalism, MCEC also gives physical form to the College's deeply felt, continuing commitment to the sciences and mathematics, a tradition, noted by President Tom Gerety at the building's dedication, which dates back to the very beginning of Trinity's 168-year history. "This new building is strongly indicative ofTrinity's commitment to energize the state of math and science education," said David Mauro, chairman of the math department. The facility allows math and computing activities to be centralized

and gives math students a place to congregate, both academically and socially, he said. Construction of the building supports the national education goal to achieve world- class mathematics and science education by the year 2000. Experts have predicted that by 1996 there will be 45,000 fewer students with bachelor's degrees in math and science than this country will need to maintain its present economic status. Even at Trinity, the combined

number of students majoring in math and science peaked at 118 in 1987 and by 1990 had slipped to 59, the lowest total in any of the last 13 years. A number of fac ulty and administrators and one trustee served on the building committee for the MCEC.

n the mild and sunny morning of April 19, the people who will spend many hours - in some cases years -studying and conducting research in the Mathematics, Computing and Engineering Center came together with the people who had contributed· to the creation of this major faciliry. Joined by this common bond, they witnessed the dedication ofTriniry's first new academic building in nearly 25 years. Students and facu lry mingled with donors, trustees, alumni, President Tom Gerery, President Emeritus James F. English, Jr., architect Cesar Pelli and admin-

Each guest was properly outfitted with a plastic pocket protector bearing a design of the new building-a tongue-in-cheek souvenir of the event. Visitors marvelled as professors and undergraduates demonstrated projects -such as one to develop a more refined device to measure blood pressure - that are underway in the electromechanical engineering, computer science and electrophysiology labs. In one seminar room, a computerized projection of photographs depicted the construction

process from ground-breaking to completion. After touring the Center, the crowd gathered in the Kellner Lobby for the dedication ceremony, in which Gerery recognized individuals, corporations and foundations that had provided financial support, guidance and expertise. Fundraising for the new academic building was a prioriry of the SSO million Campaign for Triniry, conducted from 1986 to 1989, and spearheaded by English and the late Constance E. Ware, then vice president for development. COIIIitllled 011 page 14

academic facility, the Trustees have achieved a balanced program of campus improvements responsive to our academic, social and recreational needs," said Alfred J. Koeppel '54, chairman of the Board ofTrustees. "Trinity is fortunate, indeed, to have the resources and support to accomplish this ambitious program during a period of economic uncertainty. Much of the credit for our success is owed to the remarkable leadership of the College: President Emeritus Jim English, who initiated many of these projects; and his successor, Tom Gerety, who has seen them to completion." Gerety and Koeppel unveiled a plaque containing the names of the major contributors to the building, and the Rt. Rev. Arthur E. Walmsley '48, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Connecticut and a trustee, offered a prayer. In post-luncheon remarks, Gerety said that the Center represents a genuine commitment on the College's part to continue the vital work of educating tomorrow's mathematicians, engineers and computer scientists. "Through inspired teaching and state-of-the-arr equipment and facilities, talented Trinity students make great gains in the sciences," he said, citing examples of undergraduate research endeavors and faculty innovations in teaching methods and programs. "As the first academic department to use this magnificent new building, we can report to you that working in this

building is as satisfYing as the appearance of the building itself suggests," said August E. Sapega, the Karl W. Hallden Professor of Engineering, who moved in with the rest of the engineering and computer science department this past winter. "The physical resources of classrooms, offices and laboratories are excellent." Sapega noted that he and other department members already have shown the Center to colleagues from other colleges and from local businesses. "We can report their enthusiastic response to the building environment," he said. " Many who have experience in planning and building similar facilities have been quick to note that this building is very cost-effective." Offering a student perspective that was both humorous and poignant, Saunders N. Whittlesey '91, a mathematics major and son of the Seabury Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy E. Finlay Whittlesey, described the complicated steps involved in moving several academic departments from McCook and Hallden to the new Center. He then added: "One of the contrasts between artists and scientists is that artists like an object for its visual beauty; scientists, on the other hand, also find beauty in utility. The splendor of what has come to be referred to as this building speaks for itself as art, but it has also proved useful. You know that good ideas are generally not heard unless they are presented well. The work of the engineers, computer scientists and mathematicians continues as before,

but this building has at last given them a place to showcase their work. "This building has already helped open the eyes of many young talents that they can, in fact, receive so fine a technical education and expose themselves to such a fine offering of arts and humanities," Whittlesey concluded. " I have faith that the housing of the disciplines of mathematics, engineering and computer science in this building is a sign that they will be at Trinity longer than anyone shall know it."

Other contributors to the new facility include: Henryk de Kwiatkowski , who is the father of a current Trinity student and two alumni, for the Mathematics Center conference room; and Wilson H. Taylor '64 and his wife, Barbara B. Taylor, for providing endowment for the Mathematics Center. Other foundations and corporations who supported the project included: The Pew Charitable Trusts, for a grant which funded the mathematics department facilities on the second floor; The Kresge Foundation, for a challenge grant which completed funding for the Center in 1989; the Margaret Dorrance Strawbridge Foundation, for naming the third floor lounge in honor ofJohn Strawbridge of the Trinity class of 1896; the Booth Ferris Foundation, for a grant toward the cost of construction; and Black & Decker Corporation, also for a grant for construction costs. â&#x20AC;˘

An Architectural Commentary

•••

he new academic building by Cesar Pelli & Associates accommodates the building traditions ofTrinity's campus and the city of Hartford ... Its style and materials subdy gesture toward Trinity's architectural masterpiece, the Long Walk, by the eminent High Victorian architect, William Burges. Originally planned in 1872 as a magnificent series of four quadrangles, Burges' scheme was only partially realized. The Burges plan, extraordinary in its vision, has stood somewhat as a teasing specter at attempts to create a unified campus. Trinity has now come much closer to having one ... The rich palette of reds, browns, and oranges relates the building to the subde exterior color of the Long Walk and, farther afield, to the not-so-subde polychromy of the Mark Twain House on Farmington Avenue. The molded brick is in an English cross bond pattern, a feature which is intensified on the end towers where every fourth brick course is raised. The textured walls thus create a continuum with the corduroy concrete of the Life Sciences Center and the warm sandstones and brownstones of the northern campus. The Indiana limestone cornices terminate the height of the building in a way similar to the cornices of the adjacent dormitories ...

Beautiful vaulted ceilings in th~ corridors are lined with cable trays to accommodate frequent rewiring for data communications required in the building. The ceiling pattern is vaguely reminiscent ofHollerith cards, used in earlier computing technology.

The plan .. .is simple and functional. Classrooms, laboratories and offices are arranged along a corridor which runs the length of the building. The glassenclosed end pavilions are devoted to public use and contain stairs, elevators, lobbies and lounges with luxurious mahogany benches. The larger of the two towers at the western end acts as the main entrance for the Computer Center, and the east tower services the lobby for the Math Center with a seminar room above.

The interiors embody the same warm and inviting palette of the exterior. The corridor vault is wallpapered with a pattern of red and yellow stripes and dots, and is illuminated by cove lighting... The green carpeting in the corridor, offices and classrooms terminates at the lobby area .. . tiled in an intricate pattern corresponding to the vault design. Such interior detailing also recalls the rich stencilling oflate 19th century interiors, here translated into a modernistic idiom.

Rather than proclaim itself as a "hero" among its neighbors, the building voluntarily recedes and forms a rich and subde background to a vital area of the Trinity campus. In Mark Twain's town, one might say that it is truly a prince somewhat in the disguise of a pauper. •

This commentary is excerpted from an introduction to the b11ilding, prepared for the dedication obsewance by Kathleen Curran, assistant prqfessor offine arts and an architectural historian specializ ing in modern architecture.

In the State of Virginia From the air, Ticonderoga Farms (far left) doesn't look remotely pastoral. The main crop, seen in the bottom third of the photograph, is evergreen trees. Bulldozers pile brush from land-clearing operations into windrows up to 20 feet high. As the wood rots, it fertilizes the thin Loudoun County soil. Peter Knop '62, the owner, left, works prodigiously to protect the land and make the farm a viable economic operation.

he way Peter Knop sees it, he's doing a lot more with his 1,200-acre nursery in Loudoun County than just growing Christmas trees and ornamental shrubs. He's doing his bit to solve the landfill crisis. And clean up the Chesapeake Bay. . .. And reduce the use of toxic pesticides .... And preserve open space in the fast-growing Northern Virginia suburbs. In fact, if you listen to Knop long enough, you might conclude that his路 work at Ticonderoga Farms is the best thing to happen to Virginia's environment since the Kepone cleanup in the James River. And you just may be right. Knop 's solution is incredibly simple: Rather than dumping millions of tons of grass clippings, dead branches and tree stumps into landfills every year, turn them into compost and use it as fertilizer. In one swoop, you extend the life of the landfills, cut the use of harmful fertilizers that leach into the Chesapeake watershed, reduce the use of chemical pesticides, and turn scrub forest into verdant agricultural land that can earn a competitive return on investment as an urban farm. "We literally have the solution to half of America 's waste disposal crisis," he says. "It's so simple. It's so easy." When something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. In

Peter Knop 's low- tech composting scheme is breaking new ground in recycling. Despite an impending landfill crisis, state and local authorities are treating him like dirt. Bv jAMES A. BAcoN

Knop's case, Loudoun County and the state Department of Waste Management are trying to shut him down. Accusing Knop of operating an unlicensed landfill, state and county administrators haven't succeeded in their primary aim, but they have chased away much of his business. The story of Peter Knop is a tale ofbaleful bureaucracy, of state and local policy makers fixated on petty legalities and losing sight of the greater good. If Virginians want to clean up the environment, the state should be encouraging innovative, free-market mavericks like Knop - not trying to put them out ofbusiness. The 50-year-old entrepreneur, who has made millions in investment banking, disdains convention. Partial to plaid shirts, tweedy jackets and cowboy boots, he drives around his fields and dirt roads in a mud-splattered Cadillac. Like any good deal maker, he abhors red tape. Ifhe had embarked upon a course more accommodating to government officials from the beginning, he might not have inspired the resistance that now stymies him. But,. then, he argues, the authorities have no legal basis for regulating him in the first place. The stakes are enormous. Tree stumps, brush and other natural organic material account for more

Rottin' in Virginia

than 20 percent of the solid waste stream in Virginia. The volume should rise now that open burning has been banned. Although Knop's techniques remain unproven as far as the scientific establishment is concerned, they have the potential to save millions of dollars for localities contemplating a $1.3 billion bill for new landfills over the next 20 years, not to mention hundreds of millions more for recycling facilities and incinerators. Last year, for instance, Fairfax County issued $237 million in bonds to finance a massive wasteburning facility. Knop may not prevail in his Kafkaesque nightmare here in Virginia, but he will make his mark eventually. State officials in Florida and New York see promise in his patented process. "We're in great need of some technology" to deal with mountains of yard waste and organic waste, says Laurie K. Axenfeld, a Washington representative to the New York state senate, who is arranging for senior legislators from the Empire State to visit Knop 's farm. "It looks like Ticonderoga Farms might have part of the solution to our problems."

Ticonderoga Farms, one of the largest nurseries in the Washington area, has a solid foothold in the local market thanks to its lower transportation costs and ability to supply plants acclimated to local conditions. Still, Knop is eager to branch out. Having expanded the farm to 1,200 acres, he sees tremendous potential in cut flowers and specialty vegetables. " It's ludicrous," he says, "to import asparagus from California when you could grow it right here ." While those plans are germinating, Knop is expanding the definition of farming: He's not just in the business of selling trees, he's selling recreation. He markets his Christmas trees by giving visitors hayrides and handing out hot cider. He promotes pick-your-own beans and strawberries as a healthy way for suburban housewives to keep their children busy on lazy summer days. "You've got to bring Madison Avenue to the farm," he says. Although the farm's location in Northern Virginia gives it a builtin market, its heavy clays, thin soil and poor drainage hinder cultivation. Rather than burning brush ( COillitwed 011 page 22)

hen Knop inherited a 250-acre farm from his parents some 20 years ago, he quickly realized he would have to do things differently. Hay and feed corn did not generate the revenue he needed to cover the rising costs of labor and taxes in suburban Washington. So he became an herb grower. Before long, he was selling herbs as far away as Chicago and Switzerland. But finding field hands for the laborintensive business became such a chore that he switched to shrubs, ornamental plants, Christmas trees and other nursery products.

And the fight goes on: Knop 's persistence wears down bureaucracy Bv R

oBERTAjENCKES

IN THE 15 MONTHS since this Virginia BNSinus article appeared, Peter Knop's battle with the bureaucracy has continued. Late last year, the Class of'62 alumnus contacted the Rqortn for editorial help in his long-running and frustrating fight. "As the cause of the environment can not wait upon bureaucratic malfeasance," he wrote, ••I have declared war on their ineptitude and incompetence and challenged them to a fight for which I need all the moral and political support I can get." Things are somewhat better now, he says; the situation is not quite as desperate. ••A million dollars has been spent on fighting for the concept. Hopefully we're making some progress in the zoning battles. We now have a state permit, of sorts. We have a county permit, of sorts. I think that we have media support. A lot of people out there who were either on the fence or against us are now saying, •This really does look good.' I think we will survive. Now the question is whether we and the amcepts will grow. The concepts are very, very important for the future of this country." In Ticonderoga Farms, the bustling, organic enterprise less than two miles &om Dulles Airport, ••the concepts" become clear. Located in the ••golden corridor" around Washington, the farm is ringed by sprawling, new housing tracts and squeaky clean office complexes, some as large as 16 million square feet. All of these developments, and the new sub-

when clearing his land, Knop began dumping it in compost piles in the hope of upgrading the soil. "I remember my mother sent me out to fetch rotting wood for potting soil," he recalls. "If the compost was good for house plants, it ought to be good for crops too." Initially, Knop piled the brush in windrows, as farmers traditionally have done. Over the years, though, he noticed that some mounds of brush decomposed faster than others. To get his land back into production more quickly, he began experimenting to see what worked best. He dumped the brush into piles varying by height, moisture and compaction. His greatest breakthrough came when he noticed the advantage of covering the debris with vines and other plants. As Knop came to understand it, ivy, wisteria, honeysuckle and kudzu create a microenvironment conducive to decomposition by regulating temperature and humidity. Also, the roots of polk weed, fescue and other plants -"nature's own shredders"-break open the stumps so fungi and bacteria can penetrate the wood and do their work. "In a tropical rain forest, a tree falls down, and two or three years later, it's gone," he explains. In moderate clirnes, the process normally takes 15 years; Ticonderoga Farms has condensed it to five or six. Knop bulldozes the compost into the soil, where it builds up the complex organic "soil structure" that supports a micro-ecosystem of insects, bacteria, fungi and other life forms . Through composting, planting nitrogen fixers and practicing integrated pest management, Knop has increased his yields and all but eliminated the use of harmful fertilizers and pesticides. Organic farming, he insists, is both smart business and beneficial to the environment. "The major

"People say, 'Oh, well, there's nothing we can do about it. We just have to do it.' We're becoming slaves to a dictatorship which in some ways has taken us significantly further than you now have in Eastern Europe. And you see the tremendous impediments to capitalism, ingenuity, inventiveness, and entrepreneurship caused by the bureaucracy in this country. By the time it really has dawned on you that our productivity in the creative sense is gone, it's too late. The European Economic Community and the Japanese have taken over. "I tend to be a rather strident type. Partially, it's personality; partially, people don't listen unless you yell. Basically what it is, is being a free thinker. I find that the less I know, the better off I am, the more ridiculous and outlandish things I will attempt to do." In the experimental greenhouse near his house he tries out some of his new ideas. There he grows all his own citrus, as well as hybridized bananas, guava and other exotic fruits as well as "the hardiest rosemary in the United States," which will survive thirty-belowzero temperatures. "I took a hundred thousand plants, stuck them out in the fields and let them grow. I crossed the ones that lived the longest and then threw the seeds out until I finally got this one," he explains. "It's not the proper way of cultivating; it's the creative way. It's God's way of doing it, and I just help it along." Where does he find the time for experimental gardening, running the farm, fighting the court battles, and his investment banking business? "There's lots of time," he says quietly. "It's how

we spend our time that is really important. Robert Kennedy talked about the quality of life being in the justice of our society, the happiness of our marriages, the strength of our friendships. These are what make life worth living. Societal measuring tools don't measure any of these intangibles. The same thing is true with colleges. They can be a tremendous source of power. It's one of the things that I think is good about a small college. "Ultimately it's the schools and it's our colleges that are going to have the big impact. When you have a faculty who help to generate people out there who will listen, that can really make a difference. "We need the support ofTrinity alumni for our project and concepts. We want to see our environmental technologies used nationally and internationally. To do this, we must educate the bureaucracies, Virginia's and others, about the common sense environmental programs, such as we've devised at Ticonderoga Farms. Help us to communicate our positive message about good news on the environmental front. We need more radio, TV and national newspaper coverage.

source of groundwater and surface- water pollution is agricultural,'' he says. Phosphates and other fertilizers run into streams and feed the algae that deplete the water of oxygen and, ultimately, denude the Chesapeake watershed of its rich marine life. Once Knop began composting his own brush, it was a small step to solicit other people's debris. Developers generate thousands of tons every day. They can't burn it anymore, and hauling it to landfills can cost up to $350 a truckload. Knop takes it off their hands for roughly $125. He's accepting about 100 truckloads a day, he says, and he could handle far more. The composting operation,

which generates an additional $4 million or so in revenues annually, makes Ticonderoga Farms a viable venture. Generating a competitive rate of return on his farming operations, Knop has turned down a $50 million offer from a developer for his 1,200 acres. "The economics of the operation are superb," he says. "And we're only handling 10 percent of the potential." hile Knop has capacity to spare, Virginia is running out oflandfill space. In years past, that would have been no cause for alarm: It rarely took more than six to eight months to get a landfill up and

running. "We used to dig a hole in the ground, put the waste in and cover it up,'' says Harry E. Gregori, Jr., director of policy and planning for the Department of Waste Management. However, the old landfills tend to leak pesticides, other organic chemicals and heavy metals into the water table, the source of drinking water for 41 percent of all Virginians. The state has set a 1992 deadline for all landfills to adhere to tough new design standards. The new standards will push the cost from roughly $10 a ton to between $30 and $35 a ton, says Gregori. Some experts claim the figure is closer to $40 a ton. But there's no disputing that it now

will take three to five years to find sites, obtain permits and install the elaborate liners and systems needed to protect the water table - when sites can be found. This, after all, is the NIMBY generation-Not In My Back Yard. Old dumps are filling up at the rate of some 25,000 tons a day, and observers are predicting that many will flunk the 1992 standards. In some localities, policy makers are panicking as they contemplate life without landfills. Will Virginia, like New York, one day load its trash onto peregrinating garbage barges? Will it ponder plans to ship garbage in railroad cars to desert dumps in Nevada? Sniffing a crisis in the making, the General Assembly has gone beyond protecting the public health. A law passed last year requires all municipalities to complete master plans by 1991 for dealing with waste disposal. There's nothing preventing localities from relying on the private sector, asserts Gregori. "All we're asking them to do is plan ahead." Unfortunately, making local governments responsible for waste disposal creates a bias in favor of public sector remedies. Typically, localities hire consultants for planning and procurement. Consultants, of course, have an interest in proposing expensive, highly engineered public projects that might create more work for them in the future . Municipalities rarely second guess them. "You see the same thing over and over," says an engineer who asked not to be identified for fear of political repercussions. "It's like following a script." ... . . . eter Knop's problem is political, too, but his quarrel isn't with local citizens' groups. Loudoun County has used every means within its power to stop Knop from

composting other people's brush. The county yanked a grading permit he had obtained for soil erosion control on the grounds that he was operating a solid waste facility. It has written letters to his customers commanding them to cease patronizing his operation. Some have steered clear. And the Board of Zoning Appeals ordered Knop to stop collecting refuse, forcing him to shift his operation to another piece of property. "They threw the book at us ,"

says Knop. "We're probably the only farm in Virginia with our own general counsel." But even Knop's lawyer, Mario Oriani-Ambrosini, can't handle all the legal work himself. Having filed a suit to halt the county's "harassment," Ticonderoga Farms now keeps two outside attorneys busy. Knop is fending off the state as well. "They called us [an unlicensed] landfill," says OrianiAmbrosini. "But we weren't a landfill, because we weren't burying

anything. Then they said we were an open dump. But the definition of an open dump involves adverse environmental impact. They sent inspectors down here and couldn't find anything wrong. Then they declared us a fire hazard. The fire marshal came, and he said we were OK." Terrance Wharton, director of engineering for Loudoun County, says he had no problem when Knop was composting his own brush. Once he began accepting material from the outside, however, he fell under county ordinances regulating the collection and disposal of trash. At the heart of the conflict: State and local officials fear that if Knop gets away with what he's doing, anybody could claim to be an agricultural operation exempt from the rules. Wharton raises legitimate issues. So does Knop. The legal questions are in Loudoun County circuit court, and a judge will rule on their merits. But the legal technicalities obscure the big issue. The fact is, Knop has pioneered a promising method for recycling 20 percent of Virginia's waste stream. Rather than stretching the regulations to shut him down, state and local authorities should be bending the rules to make him part of the solution.

istory and technology are on Knop's side. In the future, Americans will turn increasingly to biological systems to process waste. Some of the cutting-edge research is occurring in Virginia. Donald E. Mullins, an associate professor of entomology at Virginia Tech, is exploring the use of microbial populations to digest pesticides. The science is so well understood, he says, that microbial systems may be used to degrade hazardous wastes fairly commonly within three to four years.

Richard Schmidt's work is a little less exotic. The Virginia Tech agronomy professor has been studying the effect of organic waste on soils and water tables. Working in conjunction with United BioFuels, he has found that the waste improves the structure of the soil, making it easier for plants to root, and creates a hospitable environment for microorganisms that form a part of the soil ecosystem. Like Knop, he discovered that compost eliminates the need for chemical fertilizers . Reassuringly, he says, "We have not found any detrimental effects as far as ground water." Although he is not personally familiar with Knop 's work at Ticonderoga Farms, Schmidt says the concept of composting tree stumps is sound. "Mter all," he says, "in a forest, the leaves fall down every fall. Branches fall down. Trees fall down. I'd say it's a good use. " Thomas W. Simpson, an extension soil scientist at Virginia Tech, has visited Knop's Farm. Although the composting technology remains unproven - Knop has relied on intensive trial and error rather than carefully documenting his findings according to conventional scientific methods -it "may offer an alternative management tool for land clearing debris," wrote Simpson in a report on composting to the Department of Waste Management. In fact, Knop's methods show so much promise that the state should monitor his progress and devise reasonable environmental controls, Simpson says. For his part, Knop says he would happily accept regulations tailored to the uniqueness of his operation. He just doesn't want to be pigeonholed into the same category as a landfill or stump dump. No problem, says Gregori, the Waste Management official. All Knop has to do is apply for an ex-

perimental permit. To get that, he needs to obtain appropriate zoning rulings from Loudoun County. "It may be that this guy is a little ahead of his time," Gregori says. "It boils down to a matter of procedure. You can call him innovative. You can call him creative. But everybody's got to play by the same rules." Sadly, Knop remains locked in mortal combat with Loudoun County, where owners of competing landfills, stump dumps and chipping operations view him as a threat to their business. But Virginia can't afford to let local political animosities determine such an important issue. As the General Assembly confronts its worst budget crunch in nearly a decade, neither state nor local governments have the money to underwrite the multi-billion dollar transition to an environmentally sound waste disposal system. From a fiscal perspective alone, the logic for privatizing waste disposal services is compelling. By handing over the task to the private sector, localities can channel scarce resources into more pressing needs such as schools, transportation and law enforcement. In the long run, privatization also will harness the energies of innovators like Knop . Although costs inevitably will rise as Virginians phase in their expensive, state-of-the-art landfills, there is no reason for localities to get caught in a crunch. Chambers Development would be happy to build more landfills. United BioFuels would gladly erect more recycling plants. And Peter Knop would be delighted to propagate his stump- eating nurseries. "The state has declared it wants 25 percent volume reduction by 1995," says Knop . "I could give them 25 percent by 1991 without blinking an eyelid." Too bad it's too good to be true. â&#x20AC;˘

he keynote speaker, Tom Chappell, was on the verge of giving a lecture to a group called Women Unlimited, an association in Maine that promotes trade opportunities for women. The early-morning conference was jampacked with sleepyeyed marketing directors, personnel managers and carpenters, all eager to hear the word from the mountain. Chappell, president and cofounder ofTom's of Maine, reviewed his speech with the interpreter who was provided for the hearing impaired. Chappell's dapper appearance, proper business suit and perfecdy coiffed graying hair lent credibility to his position as a successful-make that very successfulentrepreneur. This is, after all, the guy who has propelled his small personal-care products company into fourth place in the New England sales race-out of a pack of 22 contenders-and into the number one slot in the national all-natural health care line. His company consistendy grows at a rate of38 percent annually, and sales have doubled in three years, from $4.2 million in 1986, to $8.1 million for the fiscal year endingJune 1989. The perfect person to address a group of aspiring business women. And Chappell seemed shrewd enough to understand that if he stood at the lectern and addressed the group of women business leaders and dressed in L.L.

eccentric born under a lucky star. No, it was the elegant suit and tie that allowed Chappell to get away with something as hokey as carrying a basket filled with free samples of Tom's of Maine baking soda toothpaste, a prop that reinforces his folksy approach to marketing. The suit, the tie--the look--was even what let him get away with the topic of the day: ethics. For the man addressing the meeting that recent morning was not only Tom Chappell, successful entrepreneur, but also Tom Chappell, divinity student. This spring Chappell will graduate from the Harvard Divinity School with a Master's in Theological Study. And his address to Women Unlimited was worthy of a Sunday sermon. Before launching into his prepared text, Chappell asked audience members to introduce themselves to each other and spend a few moments in private "affirming" conversation. "We need to stop thinking of the body next door as just an object taking up space," he said. And then he was off. He talked about a spider's web he found in his Kennebunk garden and turned the web into a metaphor ofbusiness. He dreamily described the interdependence of each strand of the web on the other. He discoursed on the negativity ofhierarchy and dominance. He touched on Martin Buber, the 20th-century Jewish philosopher who preached the affirmation of humanity for its own sake.

Martin Buber at a business meeting? Spider webs? Hierarchy and dominance? Just what exactly is going on here? This is essentially a story of seeking and finding; of finding what had been sought and then seeking something new to give a meaning to what was finally found. And it's a tale, like all seeking tales, that really has no end. Twenty years ago, as Tom Chappell tells the story now, he was searching for a way to nurture his creative side and at the same time beat "the system." He was 26 years old and decided to quit his insurance sales job with Aetna, left urban Pennsylvania and moved his wife Kate and two young children to the wilds ofKennebunk, Maine. Like many children of the postWorld War II generation, as Tom Chappell tells it, the Chappells yearned to live off the land, reclaim their expressive roots and bypass the establishment. However, hippies they were not. Rather, the ÂŁunily found its niche in what was called the "new entrepreneurs." The move was called foolish by those left behind in Pennsylvania. "I had an awful lot of self-worth or an awful lot of ego," Chappell explains today. With a $5,000 loan from a friend and a desire to use all-natural products, Chappell founded his little company in Kennebunk in 1970. In the first days, products were sold only to health food stores, and the 1970 lab was run by two people.

Thomas M. Chappell '66 displays a tube of Tom's of Maine toothpaste, one ofthe natural products contributing to his company's success.

Chappell himself mixed his first batch of toothpaste on what is now the porch of the plant building, a converted railroad depot that still hosts a working railroad. Trains rumble through three times each day, and stepping over the tracks onto wobbly gravel is the only way to get from the corporate offices to the factory. And in 1972 chemist Blaine Tewbbury 'just dropped in," as Kate Chappell recalls today, and joined the Tom's of Maine family. Gradually products were added and discarded through the trials at Tewksbury's R&D unit. Clearlake, a biodegradable detergent, paved the way for toothpaste, floss, deodorant, shaving creams and shampoo. By 1982, with annual sales of$2 million, Chappell worked toward stepping out of the world of folklore, a condition that many

natural product companies find themselves in when promoting ingredients straight off Grandma's pantry she!ÂŁ The 760-outlet CVS chain agreed to carry Tom's of Maine products right next to the Crest, Aim, and Colgate tubes. Soon other chains followed suit, as did Shaws' and Shop n' Save supermarkets. By 1984 the Maine Society of Entrepreneurs named Tom Chappell "Entrepreneur of the Year." Nothing coming out of Tom's of Maine's plant is dubious. All products are all- natural. No animals are ever used in testing. Each package is recycleable; the toothpaste tubes are aluminum, not lead. Each ingredient is explained in detail on the package; why it is used, what it is, where it comes from. Letters pour in to Tom's from consumers, some cheering and some condemning. When customers rebelled at the all-natural bristle toothbrush's use of animal bristles, the product was discontinued. Now Tom's of Maine suppliers must provide a signed affidavit attesting that they follow procedures of crueltyfree testing. But things changed. Tewksbury retired this year, and a new chemist, Pam Scheeler, reigns over the laboratory. And Chappell says today that the company had to give up a lot when it decided to become professional. He fired people, trading in part of his early folksy team for hard-ball pros. Chappell hired orthodox cor-

porate specialists and said goodby to the generalists that he began the company with. He says that he tried to be fair to the departing employees. "The response was, 'What's going on here? I've served Tom well for years and now my general skills aren't good enough,"' he says now. "And they're right, they're not good enough." A hefty severance package helped alleviate Chappell's guilt, and his persuasive defense of competency and efficiency rationalized the move. And things moved further. To his Board he added Colin Blaydon, dean ofDartmouth's Amos Tuck School of Business, and John Rockwell, senior vice president at consultants Booz, Allen & Hamilton (the Board now numbers six men and five women, typically alternative). Salaries jumped to about $100,000 for each of the three fulltime vice presidents. And the company continued to grow while its products continued to find wider and wider acceptance. Products spread from New England to nationwide and beyond. When United States Marines searched Manuel Noriega's home after their invasion ofPanarna, boxes ofTom's of Maine toothpaste were found in the general's bathroom. Yet after twenty years of making money, restructuring the company and pumping up his sales force with computer printouts and action plans, Chappell felt, he says now, it was time to further study the humanities and take care of a "drying out" of his intellect. Seeking and finding; finding and seeking. He says today that he knew he was ignoring his spiritual voice and was making decisions strictly by the numbers. "I had attracted people to the business who thought in terms of

Tom's Trinity Ties homas M. Chappell '66 has been a popular target of attention lately by national media. The New England Business article reprinted here is just one of a number of feature articles about Chappell and Tom's of Maine, the fast- growing business that he and his wife, Kate, co- founded in Kennebunk, Maine in 1970. As president of Tom's of Maine, Chappell has dedicated himself to creating a company that produces innovative, healthful products in a caring and creative environment. And, he hopes to set an example of ethical business standards for others. In a "Green Cosmology" article, Outside magazine chose Chappell as one of six "Business Cherubim"; others included Ben and Jerry ofice cream fame. Chappell was prominendy featured in a Forbes magazine section tided "The Up & Comers." Other stories about him have appeared in Inc. magazine and the Harvard Divinity Bulletin. Chappell takes all this publicity in stride, yet is amused by writers who devote so much ink to that fact that an environmentally- aware businessman dresses in traditional business attire. "This image thing bothers me. People assume I have. to be in suspenders and blue jeans," he said. Closer to home, Chappell has received recognition in his home state of Maine. This spring, for in-

principle, utility and maximization, and they were constantly shooting me down," he recalled. Fulfillment, he decided, was not equivalent to success. As a devout Episcopalian and a graduate of a Quaker boarding school, enrolling in divinity school looked like the perfect way to survive the influx of mundane ideas. Spending half of his week in Cambridge has had a profound influence on Chappell, he says.

stance, the Chappells were inducted into the Maine Business Hall of Fame for their significant and enduring contributions to the state's economy, and for serving as role models to Maine's students and young adults in the business world. "What we're doing is reformative and provocative; it requires dropping the language and approach that business has used all these years," he says. "We're satisfying private needs and we're putting the public good as the ultimate goal of our enterprise ... The purpose of our work is to create community and goodness." Chappell came to Trinity as a pre- med student but wound up as an English major. "My studies at Trinity College as an English major made me feel that I could question the society I was part of," he says. With his daughter, Sarah '92, now a religion major at Trinity, he appreciatively recalls his own undergraduate work with Professor ofBiology Donald B. Galbraith and Professor ofEnglish Paul Smith. Both were very supportive and affirming, he says. He credits emeritus Professor ofReligion Theodor M. Mauch's teachings about community with profoundly influencing the work carried out at Tom's of Maine. His affiliation with Alpha Delta Phi - of which he was president -helped him to develop his leadership skills as

Though he lacks warmth in his idea presentation, and comes off as a purely cerebral philosopher, his sincerity can't be doubted. His words, taken out of the context of the muscular Christianity from which they emanate, sound formulaic and not a little pat: "You have to be willing to serve if you are going to lead," he says. "You need to be able to be last if you are going to be first." Only the context gives them a

well as "good, close friendships." In addition to his work with Tom's of Maine, he is active in the Episcopal Church of Maine and is a delegate to the 1991 General Conference of the Episcopal Church. He is active in many cultural and philanthropic organizations, among them the Maine Global Conference.

give some meaning to wealth and power--searching for some spiritual counterweight to the opulent decadance Âˇof the "cottages" of Newport, R.I .- the muscular Christians of the last two decades of the 19th century developed the notion of service. It was a credo of the interconnectability of mankind that went beyond the emptiness of mere noblesse oblige and into the somewhat murkier territory of seeing service as true empowerment.

So when Tom Chappell says something like "Obligation--service-is a way to freedom and happiness" he is essentially echoing a century of high Episcopal thought. And when he says that through his Harvard work he can see into the hearts ofhis corporate counterparts working a value system that can only be sustained by more and more power, he is grappling with many of the same concerns that New England theologians have been stewing over for more than a century. Chappel has tried to apply some of the things he has learned at divinity school to the workplace, and the result has been a quirky restoration of some of the crunchy granola aspects of a start up to a corporate setting. Martin Buber, for example, is Chappell's major theological mentor, and he held a Buber Day at the Kennebunk office in the summer of 1989. Lectures were given, study groups were held, and at dinner the management team continued its discussions. Bill Stuart, Tom's Manager of Sales Planning, recalls in understatement, "It was different from a typical work day." He explains that his colleagues and himself were forced to focus their energies on something completely different from their usual Tom's of Maine work. "I realized that everyone is another human being. Using that I can deliver qualitative services," he says. "You don't think in terms of statistics anymore." It's all a bit vague-as many exercises in spiritual seeking tend to beand Chappell says that despite the Buber Day activities he doesn't coerce his employees into any of these philosophical gymnastics. Nevertheless, a simplified version of the company's mission state-

ment-which is about service, respect, working together and building-is written in large print witli. magic marker and pasted to the walls of the break room. Employees can read it over and over again while eating lunch or sipping decaÂŁ A smiley face illustrates the directive to "smile," "I'm only human, all too human" and "Don't be too quick to judge," sound like directives of a 12step meeting. "This isn't done to please Tom and Kate," Chappell says, "it's to live up to the mission." Bill Stuart took this job straight out of Duke University five years ago, MBA in hand, and reports that whatever Chappell is doing, it apparently works. When the company broke into the national market and put products on California drug store shelves, the economy was strong. Now, with dire predictions of a recession clouding the corporate horizon, Stuart says that Tom's growth rate will not cease. "The downturn has not made a dent in the Tom's sales charts yet," Stuart said in his skylighted office, the typical shirtsleeve--sans tie--executive. Stuart, raised on the financial bottom line, says that work at Tom's is more challenging, but less stressful, than working at mainstream sales posts. "You can be one personality here 24 hours a day and fit in well." It isn't unusual for the Chappells to hold a company-wide meeting to further examine the company's mission. Last February every employee was present. "Everyone had an opportunity for input, input that was taken seriously and acted upon," product manager Katie Shisler reported. Plant personnel asked for a better break room and safer plant area. (Eight months after the meeting the walls are still peeling and

badly in need of paint; the plant floor is blemished with puddles of liquid dripping from machines, and in the executive office area, the kitchen is in the same room as the toilet.) Even so, Good Housekeeping readers voted Tom's of Maine one ofthe top 69 companies in the country for working mothers even though the company doesn't have on-site day care. Flextime, job sharing and parttime hours are a boon for parents of small children. Handicapped people are part of Tom's, too. "I got this idea from the Book of Mark," Chappell explains, "to keep us from drowning in our own conceit." He says he needs to work side by side with the disabled or else be doomed to become progressively blind, deaf and unfeeling in his intelligence. This is just another way Chappell reminds himself that life isn't about market share. "It's about being able to live in harmony with what you feel inside." In that vein, Tom's of Maine gives 7.5 percent of after tax profits to charity, some in Kennebunk, some beyond. The company has provided a $125,000 sponsorship to WETA, the Public Broadcasting System affiliate in Washington, D .C., for producation of a six-part series titled, "Making Sense of the Sixties," to be aired in January 1991. Meanwhile, even theologians who run smallish consumer product companies know that as consumers continue to clamor for environmentally correct packaging, chemicaland cruelty-free products, the big guns on the mountain may eventually come out with comparable, if not identical product lines of their own. Chappell, nevertheless, insists that Tom's of Maine will never cease to

exist no matter what Colgate and cohorts dream up. He appreciates he can be knocked out ofhis national and regional leader spot. "So what's so wrong with that?" he says. "How wonderful, we've done our job, we've taken a direction that others are now following and that's socially constructive. Corporations are being forced to deal with the environmental topic and they can only deal with that one way, to honor it." The muscular Christians of the past would approve. "You can't do this from the top of the mountain," says Chappell about his mission. His own fulfillment and freedom, he says, echoing his theological forebears, are found through service to humankind. Chappell remains reluctant to relinquish control ofhis company and fully cultivate theological pursuits. He expects to write books in the future and wants to lecture on ethics and business. He wants, he says, to build a system that doesn't destroy through domination, but links humanity together through a web of integrity. Lofty? Idealistic? Chappell doesn't see it that way. He is, like his forebears, in the process of reconciling the pursuit of profit with the pursuit of the Kingdom of Heaven. "Creative empowerment" will allow his company to act freely in the marketplace. "That's our competitive advantage," he says. "To stifle that [creativity] and replace it with the standard patriarchal corporate structure would be to cut our throats." It's all part of the process of seeking and finding. â&#x20AC;˘ Reprinted with pennission from the December, 1990 issue of New England 811Siness magazine. Copyright 1990.

The Middle East: Prospects for Peace BY CLINTON BAILEY

to6ailoutPresidentMu6areft, PresidentAssad, and King Saud, it is imperative for America to move quicftlg

t's now just shortly after the conclusion of the war in the Gulf, and yet the wheels are already in motion to try to find a settlement of the Israeli-Arab question. Within a week after the end of the hostilities, Secretary of State Baker was on his way to the Middle East, where he held talks with the Arab leaders who participated in the coalition against Saddarn Hussein, and with the leaders oflsrael. If one wonders "why the urgency?," I think it sterns from the fact that the governments in the coalition against Saddarn Hussein can be on the carpet before their own populations, because Saddarn Hussein brought new vigor to the Arab-Israeli conflict. First of all, he built up an enormous arsenal of unconventional weaponry; he was on his way to atomic capability and had chemical and biological capabilities and delivery systems that already had been experienced in the Iran-Iraq War. Secondly, Saddarn could strike Israel from a distance and in a way that Israel could not easily deal with. Not only was Iraq far away and difficult to dispatch ground troops to, but also its missile deployment allowed missile attacks to be kept up effectively even under Israeli air strikes. If, indeed, Saddarn Hussein had the wherewith-all to "scud" Israel while he was suffering the enormous bombing by the coalition, one can imagine what he could have done had there been no coalition. The Arabs in general, and the Palestinians in particular, sensed that this was a very significant potential. Therefore, they supported him and believed that the only reason he was defeated was because Egypt, Syria and Saudi Arabia combined to let the coalition get established in Saudi Arabia and launch an assault against him.

CONSTRUCTION continues in new settlements in the occupied West Bank where more than 65,000 Israelis live. This scene shows the Israeli settlement of Ariel, 40 kilometers east of Tel Aviv.

"... you see the potential in Israel for a considerable majority that would favor territorial concessions ..."

In order to bail out President Mubarek, President Assad, and King Saud at this point, it is imperative for America to move quickly, at least in the initial stages so that these leaders can say to their own people, "We sided with the right side." Thus, we're wimessing some movement, but I would like to analyze some of the basic factors that are involved in this political progress. Secretary of State Baker, at this stage, is hearing all the up-front positions: the Shamir government says that it will give up no land; Faisal Husseini, the PLO representative in the occupied territories, says that the Palestinians must have an independent state in all of the W est Bank, and the Gaza Strip, and East Jerusalem, and recognition of the PLO as their leader. Personally, I wouldn't pay too much attention to these declarations. N ot that I suspect that Mr. Husseini, Mr. Shamir, or anyone else in the Middle East really entertains anything other than what they are saying. But there are dynamics at work, basic circumstances that are not necessarily reflected in what these people are saying. And, in order to get a handle on where things might go, one has to plug into the direction of events and the dynamics at work right now. Let me start from Israel's position. The present government in Israel takes the position that it cannot cede territory and bases its position on an ideological and historical point of view: For historical reasons this is Israeli territory and cannot be ceded. This particular government is supported by just barely more than onehalf of the electorate. The last vote produced about 50.5% in its favor. In the half of the population which did vote for the current government, however, not everyone identifies with its ideological position. Not everyone who votes, say for the Likud, feels that Israel cannot cede any territory for historical, religious, or ideological reasons. I would say that the majority of

support that the Likud received was from people who are qfraid to cede territory - people who feel that any cession of territory may be inimical to Israel's security. Since nearly half of the electorate that voted against the government has expressed its willingness to explore the possibilities of territorial cession, you see the potential in Israel for a considerable majority that might favor territorial concessions, if these concessions would not jeopardize the security of the country.The consensus in Israel is that whatever concessions it might have to make must leave it with self- defense capability. In other words, if a peace treaty with the Arabs were concluded and territory were ceded, and the Arab side changed its mind, owing to unforeseen (but not uncommon) political developments, Israel must still have the territory needed to defend itself There are differences of opinion within Israel itself as to what territory is necessary for defense. Naturally, when Israelis think about the territorial dimension of defense and security, they're thinking also in terms of future contingencies, whether one year, or five years, or ten years. And what they have just witnessed in the Gulf Crisis is not encouraging, because having a peace treaty doesn't necessarily mean that your neighbor will not, under the right circumstances, mount an attack against you, or join a coalition against you. We've just had the experience of Kuwait, which had bailed out Iraq during the long Iran-Iraq War; having been invaded, occupied, and annexed, by Iraq. The fact is that the two states were, until very recently, in a state of relative peace and both of them members of the Arab League. In addition, we saw the PLO and Jordan, each for different reasons, going against two countries, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, that had backed them very, very strongly in the past. Whatever the reasons for their doing it-and the

reasons are all understandable--it is obvious that positions can change very quickly. As Israelis see it, even if there is peace with the Arabs, another Saddam Hussein, in Iraq, in Syria, or somewhere else may come along and be able to undo the peace agreements and be a threat to their country. Therefore, if and when Israelis agree to cede territory, the basic outlook is that cession must leave them with the ability to defend themselves. No one knows yet how much territory would be necessary to satisfy the Arabs; that's another question. However, there are dynamics on the Arab side that might be propitious to some type of compromise that both sides could live with. In my own opinion, it is hard to envisage any type of peace with Israel's neighbors on the eastJordan, the Palestinians, and Syriawithout some territorial concessions; in other words without returning to Arab sovereignty some of the territory that was lost in 1967. The two factors here that have to be brought together, in order to get a compromise, are Arab pride and Israeli fears. Some territory is necessary to address Arab pride, and some to assuage Israeli fears . The question is: how much? The Palestinian situation right now would seem to favor compromise, and even compromise that Israel could live with. I think the Palestinians have come to a particularly difl:i.cult juncture. First of all, the hopes they had pinned on Saddam Hussein, who had built up a great arsenal and potential to confront Israel, have been dashed. Second, the Soviet Union, which has been the main international patron of the Palestinian movement throughout the years, seems to be no longer interested in clients like Syria or the PLO, because the Soviets can't afford to be involved in regional conflicts. Third, Syria also seems to have shelved its military option, at least for the time being, and is looking for a negotiated settlement to the Golan Heights. Fourth, Russian Jewish immigrants are

"... movement on the Golan Heights seems to he the minimum Syrian interest."

ENCLAVES , surrounded by Israeli territory, but under Jordanian rule , might be a solution to the West B ank dilemma.

pouring into Israel, making Israel ever more durable. Fifth, and perhaps most important, the three-year Intifada, or uprising, which has been very costly, has not reaped a very big harvest. It has called attention to the Palestinian cause, but hasn't really achieved very much. Given all these factors, one would imagine that the Palestinians would be ripe for compromise. Secretary of State Baker hears from Palestinian leaders-"The PLO is our representative and its minimum demand of a Palestinian state is ours, as well." But certainly the highest priority of a people who have lived under occupation for the past 24 years, must be to end that occupation- whether they get a state or not, especially given the factors indicated above. There has always been a dichotomy between the people who live in the territories and the PLO itself After living under occupation, those who live in the territories want to end it. Whenever a possible political breakthrough was on the horizon, they asked the PLO to accept U .N. Resolution 242, which provided for peace with Israel in exchange for territory. But until the Intifada of 1987, the PLO was in a position to say to the people in the territories, "You people sit still, because we're carrying the brunt out here; you're working, you're building houses, you have uni-

versities: Life isn't all that bad. You let us determine what's good for the Palestinian cause." However, since the Intifada,---and all the losses, the arrests, the casualties, the deaths, the disruption of education, the deterioration of the Palestinian economic situationthe Palestinians within the territories have gained a voice, vis-a-vis the PLO. Hence, if these Palestinians get a chance to end the occupation, even with less than a state, they will examine it. I can't imagine that iflsrael ultimately offers them territory and the possibility to extricate themselves from Israeli control, they would say, "No; all or nothing at all," after 24 years of occupation. That is why the one aspect ofPrirne Minister Sharnir's peace plan, calling for elections in the territories, is essential. When people are actually elected and have a constituency behind them, and territory is finally offered, the constituency will say to its representatives, "Look into it; don't reject it out ofhand." That is the basic Palestinian situation right now. The third dynanuc is in the Syrian position, because Syria, having lost its Soviet patron, must tlUnk twice about military confrontation with Israel. When, in 1982, it lost 82 planes in air combat, these losses were made up by the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union can't extend that kind of credit any more. And Syria doesn't have the money to buy its planes up front. Seeing a new American administration, which indicated that it might be more interested than the Reagan Administration in really moving the peace process along, Syria signaled its interest in seeking a political solution by reestablishing relations with Egypt a yearand-a-half ago. Syria was the last country to hold back from recognizing Egypt after it made peace with Israel back in 1979. But suddenly they got together, and then, of course, Syria joined the anti-Saddam coalition. Apparently, Syria is interested in

the Golan Heights. Whether that is all it's interested in is a moot question. That will be clarified in negotiation. In any case, movement on the Golan Heights seems to be the minimum Syrian interest. To negotiate the narrow and strategically significant Golan Heights requires very special international circumstances that favor Syria, or favor the overall Arab cause. Between 197 4 and 197 6 Syria had a chance for negotiations because the oil embargo made the international Arab political position stronger than it had previously been. Syria wanted to go to the then-proposed Geneva Peace Conference to negotiate; and, together with Egypt, put tremendous pressure on the PLO to accept U.N. Resolution 242, the acknowledged basis for convening the conference. They couldn't go to an international conference without the PLO and if the PLO didn't accept tlUs resolution, there could be no conference. Despite all their pressure , they did not succeed. Hence, when Syria finally negotiates for the Golan Heights, I doubt if it will take Palestinian interests into consideration, because almost 20 years of deadlock have gone by since the last possibility to negotiate aborted. Thus, Syria, depending on what it wants from the Golan Heights, could be a factor towards compromise on the West Bank-compromise meaning an arrangement that both sides can live with, not one that is based on their maximum aspirations. It is not easy to find territory on which to compromise in the West Bank of 1991, especially in light of the problem of Israeli settlements there. Over 65,000 Israelis live in settlements on the West Bank, some in cities of 8,000, 12,000, or 14,000 people. Many settlements are located in places that make them difficult to extricate from the neighboring Arab population. Still, possibilities exist, one of which is to cede territory in enclaves. Instead of retun1ing the West Bank as a whole to

There has a/wags been a dichotomg between the people who live in the territories and the PLO itself.

a whole to Arab sovereignty, Israel might return 3 or 4 enclaves of territory, large areas taking in several cities and a rural hinterland. These enclaves would be encompassed by Israeli territory and would be associated with Jordan. In other words, they would be part ofJordan, but separated from Jordan proper by an Israeli belt. Depending on the progress of negotiations, there may eventually be no need for a total belt; even with Israel remaining in parts of the Jordan Valley, openings may arise for contiguous borders between these enclaves and Jordan. The enclaves, as part of]ordan, would participate in all the national politics of that country and enjoy maximum autonomy. Israel would have no entree into these enclaves at all, no possibility ofJewish settlement, and no military presence. They would be considered part ofJordan, in the same sense that West Berlin was governed from West Germany until the end of the Cold War, except that these enclaves would be considerably larger and take in much more territory. There are many logistical problems involved in all this that would have to be worked out. But, the fact that Israeli territory would encompass these enclaves should serve to convince a majority of Israelis that maximum security can be guaranteed, in terms of what material and troops come in and go out. From a Palestinian point of view the advantage would be: (A) getting out from under Israeli control and (B) being governed by Arabs - in the first case, Jordan. We don't know what the future of]ordan is, but I do know that under such an arrangement, the Palestinians would constitute 75% of the Jordanian population. Since they are a dynamic element in the population and in the capital city already, it is hard to see how they won't ultimately have much say in the affairs ofJordan, if not make it into an outright Palestinian state. Moreover, they would be freed of the concern of having Jewish settlements estab-

lished in their territories. An arrangement such as this, according to my maps, which were drawn with an eye to making it easy for Israel to accept, would require removing only 3% of its settlement population. Once negotiations progress, the possibilities for further resolution may present themselves. From the point of view of the Jordanian regime, this enclave arrangement would contribute to stability. Because the welfare of the enclaves will depend upon their relations, first of all, with the Jordanian regime and also on Jordan's relations with Israel, the chances of an irredentist or a revolutionary movement getting started in the enclaves would probably be reduced. In any case, no one can make an arrangement without Syria: neither the Palestinians nor Jordanians. Syria is an essential ingredient of any peace arrangements that are made for the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Why? Because Syria still possesses a potential military option vis-a-vis Israel. Therefore, if anyone else tries to conclude an agreement with Israel, the Syrians can tell the Palestinians -"They jumped to the head of the queue; had they waited, we could have gotten more for you." Nobody will take the chance of being branded a traitor to the cause so long as Syria is there. By contrast, if Syria is part of the peace arrangement, any compromises that are made and sanctioned by Syria will probably be durable. The Palestinians are almost totally dependent on the outside Arab world for the welfare of their cause. If it weren't for the support of various Arab countries, they would be no more prominent on the international stage than the Kurds, the Basques, the blacks of Sudan, or anyone else who lacks international backing. Thus, if Syria, Egypt and Saudi Arabia endorse a compromise solution for the occupied territories, the Palestinians will have little choice but to concur. In conclusion, it is very important

for the United States to get involved in substance: To transcend the procedural facets of making peace. Naturally procedure will be discussed at first, at least to keep the ball rolling. But, to have the process progress, America itself, especially with its new credit and credibility resulting from the Gulf War, should be looking at the map itself and saying to the Israelis" Look, we are your friends; we've established that over and over again and in many, many ways; we understand that you have certain territorial needs; tell us what they are." Land is something that Israelis equate with security. Once they are convinced that there are certain lands that they can give up and still be secure, they will be more forthcoming. It is necessary to go into detail of that sort, and throw the details into the Israeli public debate, which is usually very vigorous and very deep. Israelis must feel that America has not abandoned their security or their sensibilities, as many probably do at this point; they must also sense that there are compromise ideas that might be workable. We are at a very fortuitous moment, and peace is possible. But, it does depend on how the cards are played. The United States is in a position to play a very important role, and if it addresses the role seriously, taking all the various sensibilities, Arab as well as Jewish, into consideration, we might finally get closer to peace. â&#x20AC;˘

SPORTS Hockey (17-8-1) Trinity's hockey team captured its fourth Eastern College Athletic Conference North/South Title in the past six years, upsetting Fitchburg State by a 4-3 score in overtime. While Head Coach John Dunham credited his "team's effort

and belief that they were going to win the game" as the key to Trinity's triumph, it is no secret that Dunham had mapped out a game plan that would have made General H. Norman Schwarzkopf proud. With the game knotted at 3-3, left wing Tom Scull '92 picked up a loose puck at the left of the Fitchburg goal and fired a wrist shot. The puck struck Trinity's right wing Martin Mooney '92 in the hip and fluttered over the shoulder of Fitchburg's goalie into the net after 4:36 of extra time. "Considering how hard that line of Scull, (Eric)

McGranahan '93, and Mooney worked," adds Dunham, "it's appropriate that they scored our third and fourth goals." Fitchburg, the North/South defending champion, came into the title game with a perfect 19-0 record against league opponents and was averaging six goals per game. Trinity scored a 4-3 victory over Amherst, a team the Bantams defeated three times this season, in the South Championship to advance to the North/

South title match. Faced with such a mighty opponent, Dunham didn't look for a stone and sling. Instead, he and Assistant Coach Paul Davidson made a few modifications to their game plan that has produced a .622 winning percentage over the past 17 seasons. "It was a simple game plan," explains Dunham. "We sent in one man to forecheck the puck, and our two other forwards attacked the first pass which enabled our defensemen to stay up and meet the play at the red line." Junior defenseman Scott Leddy, who was the E.C.A.C.'s South Player of the Year, took advantage of the open ice by scoring the first Trinity goal and was named the game's Most Valuable Player. "In any big game, your top players have to play well," comments Dunham, "and Leddy had a great game along with Jeff Tuck '92 in goal." While Trinity ended the season with a merry bus ride home from Fitchburg, the start of the season began with a long trip back home from Maine. In an effort to improve his squad, Dunham marched his team up to the Northeast KickoffTournament to battle the likes of Colby, Bowdoin and Middlebury. Trinity lost two games in the tournament including a 5-2 decision to Middlebury, the eventual East/West Champion. The Bantams rebounded, however, with wins over Connecticut College and Amherst to capture the school's fifth McCabe Title in that Tournament's seven-year history. Senior Larry Trinceri, an E.C.A.C. First All-Star Team selection, surpassed the 100 point plateau in his career with a hat trick against Connecticut College. Another highlight of the first semester was Trinity's decisive 31 victory over Williams. Trinity set the tone for the second half of the season with a 7-1 trouncing of Iona. With the number one line ofJay Monahan '93, Trinceri and John Gregory '91 filling the net with plenty of rubber, the Bantams, who owned a 9-1 league record, appeared poised to make a run for the title. Unfortunately, the injury bug began to eat away at Trinity's roster. At one point, Trinity limped into a contest against Assumption with seven regulars out of the lineup. The Bantams weathered the injuries and welcomed back their teammates, who were now clad in knee braces and ace bandages to finish the season. In that final week of

action, Tuck, an E.C.A.C. Second Team Selection, gave a preview to the playoffS when he led Trinity to wins over Connecticut College, 3-2, and Tufts, 4-2, by stopping 91 of95 shots as Trinity secured the top seed in the E.C.A.C. Southern Division. This may have been Dunham's most challenging championship season behind the bench due to the number of injuries the team endured and the raw talent that Fitchburg possessed. "The one thing that you can say about this team is that they played all the pressure games extremely well," explains Dunham, "especially the championship game." It is not surprising that Trinity peaked in those pressure games considering that the tandem of Dunham and Davidson own a playoff record of19-7 (.730) and four E.C.A.C. North/South Championships.

Women,s Basketball (17-8) Senior captain Kirsten Kolstad returned from a serious right knee injury that she suffered last season to lead Trinity to a 178 record and an E.C.A.C. Tournament bid. Kolstad, the third woman to score 1,000 points, spearheaded the program's most potent offense ever. This year's club averaged 69.4 points per game including a record 91 point performance in a victory over Worcester Polytechnic Institute. After watching Kolstad pull down a rebound and pivot on that right knee, which was encased in a bulky, blue brace, it was obvious why her teammates elected her captain. "Kirsten has been one of the main reasons for the turnaround of our program," explains Head Coach Maureen Pine, "and she has definitely set high standards for the rest of her teammates to follow." Kolstad led the team in scoring with a 14.6 ppg average and was the squad's second leading rebounder. Kolstad centered Trinity's imposing front line ofJackie Kupa '93 and Amy Chiodo '92 to give the Bantams their deepest frontcourt in years. After losing the first two games of the season, Trinity reeled off five straight victories as their disciplined offense eased into fourth gear. While a prolific offense was lighting up the scoreboard, Trinity's tenacious defense was equally impressive. Chiodo, who led the team in rebounds with an average of7 .1

rpg, was a key defender for Trinity, leading the team in steals and establishing a new mark for blocked shots in a season (63) and in a career (121). Trinity earned the program's second E.C.A.C. bid with important wins over Connecticut College, Williams, and Amherst in the second half of the season. In the contest with Connecticut College, the Camels journeyed to Hartford with a 12-0 record and one of the nation's assist leaders, Lynn Elliot. Trinity's guards, Lisa O'Connell '93 and Kathy Moynagh '93, clamped down on Elliot and opened up a 40-20 halftime lead. Chiodo and Kolstad scored 18 points each to secure a 74-53 wm.

In the opening round of the E.C.A.C. Tournament, Trinity, ranked seventh out of an eight team field, faced Colby, the number two seed. Trinity trailed by a point at the half, and eventually lost, 74-60. While the loss was a disappointment, the team can take heart that with Kolstad being the only senior, there is a good chance the Bantarns will have another crack at the E.C.A.C. title next season.

Men,s Basketball (10-11) The men's basketball team suffered only its second losing season in the last ten years as a young Trinity team posted a 10-11 record, and senior point guard Joe Reilly became the fourteenth man to score more than 1,000 points. Trinity started off with an offensive explosion against Emerson as the Bantams established a new Trinity scoring record in a 126-68 win. With an impressive outing under their hightops, the Bantams embarked on a 4- 1 start in the fall semester including a brilliant 83-50 triumph over the Cadets of Coast Guard. After the semester break, senior guards Joe Reilly, who was Trinity's top scorer on the year averaging 14.0 ppg, and Chris Hinchey skillfully directed the team's young forwards, David Jones '94, Pieter VanderHeide '93 and Matt Vaughn '92, to a 6-1 start and into the Liberty Bank Classic against Eastern Connecticut. The contest featured a battle between two of the premier point guards

ment after losing her opening match. Elizabeth DelDuca '93 competed in the team's number five position and posted a 9-1 record. The team's number one player, Courtney Geelan '91, finished the year with a 4-5 individual record, but at the singles championships, Geelan carried the banner for Trinity as she advanced to the quarterfinals of the tournament. Geelan finished as one of the top 16 players out of a field of 64 players in the country. Trinity's other top performer in the singles championships was Sarah Hammond '93, the team's number two player. Like Jones, Hammond lost in the opening round, but then she advanced to the semifinals of the consolation tournament. The Bantams jumped out to a 5-3 record at the start of the season which included 9-0 decisions over Dartmouth, Tufts and Middlebury. At the Howe Cup, Trinity captured fourth place by going 2-2 in the Tournament with victories over Brown and Franklin & Marshall and losses to Harvard and Princeton. The Bantams finished the year with four victories including shutout victories over Williams, Wesleyan and Amherst to raise Trinity's shutout tally to six for the season.

Men 's Squash (7-7) in New England with Reilly lining up against Eastern's Bunky Gonzalez. Reilly drove the Bantams to an 87- 81 victory with his quick feet and sure firing from the foul line as he converted 16 of 18 shots from the charity stripe on his way to scoring a game-high 24 points. While Reilly dominated Gonzalez, the Bantams' victory remained a team effort with three other players scoring ten or more points. Guards Chris Hinchey (14 points) and Mike Allen '92 (12 points) provided strong perimeter shooting while David Jones battled for 14 points in the paint. In the Championship game, Trinity lost 95-88 to a Wesleyan squad that was laden with seniors. Trinity's defeat proved to be the first of three losses to the Cardinals, and it started the Bantams into a tailspin they never pulled out oÂŁ Trinity lost nine of its remaining twelve

games with the only victories coming against Connecticut College, 83- 69, Manhattanville, 73-72, and Amherst, 85-72.

Women 's Squash (9-3) Trinity's women's squash team turned in another spectacular performance this season as the Bantams finished the year ranked fourth in the country out of26 schools. Trinity was the top-rated small college squad as only Princeton, Harvard and Yale were ranked ahead ofTrinity. Seven ofHead Coach Wendy Bartlett's top nine players finished the season with winning records. The team's top winner was freshman Braxton Jones, who finished the regular season with a 10-1 record in her number three position on the team ladder. In the singles championships, Jones advanced to the finals of the second round consolation tourna-

The men's squash team finished the 1990-91 campaign ranked ninth in the nation, and Mark Lewis '93, who owned an individual record of8-5 in dual matches, was named a Second Team AllAmerican. Afrer posting a 7-7 regular season record, Trinity competed in the second division for the Edward G. "Red" Hoehn Trophy, the trophy Trinity captured last season. The Bantams placed third this season by winning two of three matches in the tournament. The Bantams defeated Rochester, but then lost to Franklin & Marshall, a team Trinity had defeated during the regular season. Trinity captured third place by scoring a shutout victory over Amherst. Trinity's top three players, Justin McCarthy '93, Lewis and Rick Campbell '91, traveled to Williams a week later to compete in the singles

BRAXTON JONES '94, a top scorer on the field hockey squad, continued her success on the squash courts by posting a 10-1 individual record.

England Championships. Trinity won its first five matches, and only losses to Wesleyan and Amherst prevented the team from posting a perfect season. The Bantams were boosted throughout the season by strong individual performances from Luke McCarthy '93, David Shapiro '92, and captain Frank Monaco '91. Each of these swimmers swam three different events for Trinity every meet and won more than one event frequently: McCarthy (5), Shapiro (7), Monaco (5) . In the New England Championships, the Bantams established five new Trinity records. Shapiro set records in the 200 individual medley (2:01.97), the 400 individual medley (4:20.03) and the 200 breaststroke (2:13.51). McCarthy and Robert Lenois '93 raced to an identical record time of28.42 in the 50 breaststroke. The final Trinity record to fall at the Championships was the 200 medley relay as Monaco, John Donohue '94, David Lynch '93 and Jon Nusbaum '93 teamed up to swim a record time of 1:30.58.

Women 's Swimming (4-5) championships. All three were victorious in their opening matches before bowing out of the tournament to seeded players in the second round. In the doubles competition, the tandem of Lewis and McCarthy reached the semifinals as they scored wins over the University ofPennsylvania and Williams.

Wrestling (3-1 1) Trinity started the year with eleven wrestlers and a 2-0 record after defeating Amherst and Wentworth, but the team's depth was depleted when four members were lost due to injuries shortly after the match at Amherst. With the squad cut to seven wrestlers and only six weight class filled, the team struggled for the rest of the season in dual meets, but there were some individual performances which point to a

promising future. Jack Kirkpatrick '92, who has been voted the team's most valuable player for the past three seasons, earned a 7-6-1 record at his 167lb. weight class. Another strong individual effort was sophomore Matt Pedersen's grappling to third place in his 177 -lb. weight class at the highly regarded Plymouth State Invitational in which Trinity placed eighth. In the New England Championships Adam Dunn '93, a 190-lb. wrestler, captured sixth place, and the team finished twelfth.

Men 's Swimming (7-2) The men's swim team posted its first winning season in three years as a core of talented swimmers paced the Bantams to a 7-2 regular season mark and fourteenth place out of twenty schools in the New

The biggest splash in the pool this winter was made by two freshmen, Kim Aguilar and Stephanie Cope. The tandem of Aguilar and Cope, together with senior sprint specialist, Karen Leonard, were responsible for the Bantams' best record in five seasons. Cope competed in no less than five different events this season and she won more than one race seven times. Cope also established a new Trinity record in the 400 individual medley with a time of 4:58.89 which shattered the old mark of 5:58.31. Cope set the new mark at the New England Championships in which Trinity placed eighteenth out of a 27team field. Not to be outdone by her teammate, Aguilar broke the Trinity record in the 200 butterfly at the New England Championships with a time of2:20.37, which eclipsed the old record of2:22.84. Aguilar won more than one event three times this season.

Area Club Activities

.. ..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cLuag

The Trinity Club of Boston, led by President Ernie Haddad '61, tops the most active list of area clubs, boasting seven recent events. In December, 30 alumni, parents and friends attended a sold-out Bruins-Whalers hockey game, organized by Bryant McBride '88. Later that month alumni enjoyed a performance of "The Nutcracker" at the Wang Center for the Performing Arts, an event organized by Parsons Witbeck '82. Thirty alumni and friends relished an afternoon of theater in January when the Club hosted "Starlight Express," Broadway's high-tech rollerskating musical about a cross-country competition to determine the fastest and greatest locomotive. Ms. Whitbeck also organized this event.

The frenzy of activity continued with a reception at the Children's Museum on Jan. 31. More than 75 guests welcomed Dean of the Faculty Jan Cohn, who discussed recent curriculum changes and campus reaction to the situation in the Persian Gulf Dean Cohn filled in for President Gerety, who couldn't attend the Boston reception due to a bout with the flu. Organized by Wendy Goldstein '88 and Club Treasurer Erica Lewis '87, the evening provided a chance to enjoy the Children's Museum's many exhibits as well as visit. Attending from the College were Karen Osborne, vice president for college advancement, Gerald Hansen, Jr. '51 , director of alumni and college relations, and Susan Kinz '89, assistant director of alumni relations. The Boston Club joined with Amherst, Colgate, Middlebury, Smith, Wellesley, Wesleyan, and Williams to host the College Luncheon Series on Feb. 7 at the Union Club, where Senator William Bulher, senate president of Massachusetts, spoke on the state's political scene. Susan Angelastro '83, Trinity liaison for the luncheon, reports that the event was a great success for all the colleges involved, with approximately 15 Trinity alumni/ae attending.

Boston's Programming and Admissions Efforts Are the Tops The Trinity Club ofBoston gains the spotlight this issue for its innovative programming and superb organization. This academic year alone, the club has held 11 events, including theater performances, a river cruise, two hockey games, several receptions, and its annual dinner. Led by Club President Ernie Haddad '60, club officers also include Vice President E. Macey Russell '80, Secretary William K.irtz '61, and Treasurer Erica G. Lewis '87. Heading up the many programs are chair committee members: Dale Peatman '61 (Career Counseling), Parsons Witbeck '82 (Cultural Events), Wendy Goldstein '88 (Public Relations), Susan Angelastro '80 (Luncheon Speakers), Bryant McBride '88 (Sports Events), and Lisa Cadette '87 (Young Alumni Events). The Executive Committee is further supported by Tom DiBenedetto '71, Lizzie Hardman '88, and Alyce Robinson '88. As testimony to their fine organization, the Trinity Club ofBoston has won awards for services to both the development and the admissions offices. On Nov. 12, a group oflocal volunteers won a phonathon competition against a team of callers in Philadelphia, Pa. The event, organized to determine which city could raise the most dollars in a given evening, saw Boston earn a hardwon victory, $500 ahead of their opponents. At Trinity's Leadership Conference in the fall, Vice President for Admissions Macey Russell accepted the First Annual Alumni Admissions Award, given to the club whose admissions efforts are deemed outstanding. The Boston pro-

On Feb. 28, Boston's annual dinner at the Union Club featured Dana Professor of Philosophy Drew Hyland as guest speaker. Fifty alumni/ae heard Dr. Hyland's talk on the philosophy of sport and its relevance in today's society. Sixteen alumni enjoyed a sumptuous dinner and evening of intrigue at

gram has earned its stripes. More than 60 volunteers help Macey with this award-winning program. Last year, they called 390 applicants to encourage interest in Trinity and this fall they hosted 17 college fairs throughout the state. This April, in addition to more college fairs, Boston is one of only two cities hosting a reception for admitted applicants. And, plans are already underway for this summer's annual picnic for incoming freshmen. The Club continues its superlative efforts to provide entertainment and enlightenment for its alumni/ae. In addition to the planned admissions reception and picnic, the Club is already organizing a day with the Red Sox in June and and a Charles River Cruise on the Fourth ofJuly to watch the fireworks and enjoy the annual Boston Pops Concert. Keep it up, Boston! â&#x20AC;˘

the Boston Mystery Theatre's perfomance of"Killing Mr. Withers." Trinity alumni/ae have also been quite active in the nation's capital. The Trinity Club of Washington, thanks to the organizational talents of Peter Barlow '89 and Anne Marie Grunbeck '88, hosted a reception for

young alumni on Dec. 6 at Brickskeller's Bar that attracted more than 45 alumni, some perhaps interested in the bar's selection of over 500 domestic and imported beers. On Feb. 9, D.C.'s Stuart Kerr '78, in conjunction with The Trinity Club of BaltiÂˇ more, hosted the College's first "mini Alumni College" at the International Institute for Law. The seminar, entitled "Reconstruction in the USSR and Eastern Europe: Toward a New Economic and Political Order," featured Trinity professors Samuel Kassow '66,James West, and Brigitte Schulz with moderator Stanley Marcuss '63. More than 50 alumni, parents, and friends, including six applicants for admission into the Class of 1995, attended the lectures and panel discussion. Several alumni were involved in the success of this event, including D.C. Club President LArry Bory '65, Baltimore Club President David Clark '80, Tom Casey '80, and jennifer Hardman '86. Eugenie Devine, associate director of alumni relations, also attended. Meanwhile, in Hartford, 25 young alumni attended an evening of laughs at Brown Thomson's comedy club, the Last Laugh. The three-act event included spoofS on several unfortunate Trinity alumni, but a fun time was had by all. On Feb. 5, a record 45 alumni and friends attended the Club's downtown luncheon at Frank's Restaurant, an event organized by Ernie Mattei '70. Guest speaker History and Area Studies Prqfessor Kim Steele, who presented a fascinating talk on the historical roots of the current Gulf crisis, was introduced by Club President Marion Hardy '84. On Feb. 7, young alumni gathered at Austin Arts Center for a riveting performance by Reno, a well-known performance artist/comedienne. Lynne Pease '80 and Martha Davidson, assistant director of public relations, helped coordinate this event.

Hartford alumni saw a performance by Reno, the New York-based comedic writer and performer.

Hartford enjoyed its annual winter reception on Feb. 20 at the College's Smith Alunmi Faculty House. Seventy alumni/ ae took the occasion to become reacquainted and to tour the new facilities. Following the reception, several attendees walked across campus to watch the men's basketball and squash teams in action against Amherst College. Committee member Kim Crowley '86 organized this successful everting. The West Coast has been abuzz as well. College officials Karen Osborne and Eugenic Devine traveled with President Gerety on a tour of California in Febmary. On Feb. 26, Trinity Club of San Diego President Tom Buchenau '72 organized a reception for President Gerety at the home of]udy and Ster1e Smith '58 in lovely La Jolla. Sixty alumni/ae, parents, and friends listened as President Gerety provided them with news ofTrinity. The next day, the entourage traveled to Los Angeles where President Gerety addressed a crowd of 40. Organized by President Richard Stanson '56, the event drew a lower attendance than expected due to a deluge of untimely, although much needed, rain. From there, they moved northward to meet with San

Francisco co-presidents, Tom Robinson '72 and Eugenia Esrkine Jesberg '81, who had organized a reception for 70 alumni/ae at the home of Connie and Haig Mardikian '69. Meanwhile Seattle used the Christmas Break period to attract 15 alumni and four current students to a reception at the Sandpoint Officers Club on Jan. 4, an event organized by David '49 and John McGaw '51. In addition to his west coast trip, Tom Gerety has been visiting alumni in other parts of the country. On Dec. 9, he was greeted by Trinity Club of Fairfield President Fred Tobin '57 and 75 alunmi and guests at the home of Sunny and Bruce Macdonald '56. Likewise, The Trinity Club of New York City gathered for its annual reception and dinner on Feb. 7, where President Gerety met with Club President Scott Cassie '82, Treasurer Scott Reynolds '63, and 90 alumni/ae, parents, and friends at the Williams Club. On Feb. 14, Trinity Club of Pittsburgh President Wade Close, Jr. '55 and host Fred Sargent '66 organized a reception for 45 alumni/ae at the Duquesne Club. On all occasions, President Gerety, joined by Jerry Hansen, addressed tough issues, ranging from the current state of the College's finances to campus reactions to the Persian Gulf conflict. â&#x20AC;˘ For more information about a club mentioned above, contact the club's president.

(Editor's Note: Since we received this report, news has reached us that Winthrop Segur died on Feb. 4. Our sincere sympathy to his family and friends.) This is the first opportunity YOUR SECRETARY has had to wish aU members of our 1927 Class a Happy New Year for 1991. Although the remaining members may be counted on our fingers, this wish for happiness is sincere and heartfelt. Perhaps one of the nicest things that has happened since the last report is the receipt of a letter from HOWIE MANIERRE who is now located in the South Windsor Nursing Home. Previously he lived at 1261 Main Street in East Hartford. We certainly trust he will be comfortable and happy in South Windsor and know he would welcome and appreciate a note or even a call from fellow classmates. The number there is 282-2855. Our ever busy and ever diligent Class Agent, ROGER HARTT, reports that he has finally been able to locate ED JOHNSON who also has been on our "where are you?" list. Slowly but surely we are getting together! Happy to report that our Chairman, ANDY FORRESTER, is recuperating nicely from his bout with surgery and has resumed his usual non-athletic activities and his bland, grim Scottish sense of well being. And so, if you guys would let me know about yourselves, other Class members would be pleased to learn how things are as we aU enter 1991. As for Your Secretary, he's still cooking, but not always on the front burner. Class Agent: Roger W. Hartt

It isn't easy to make up a report for a Class with a minimum age of 80. My letter brought no replies this period so I tried making some phone calls, but was only able to reach two. I did reach OWEN STONE in Barrington, R.I. where he has continued to

maintain his home since retiring from the ministry some 17 years ago. His wife died eight years ago, but three of his children live in nearby Rhode Island or Massachusetts. He also has a son on the west coast of Florida near Sarasota. He says he is well, but, like some of us, he has some trouble walking. He told me that BOB GIBSON had died, which I hadn't known (see In Memory). I'm truly sorry as Bob was one of my better friends while at Trinity. This is New Year's Day and I have tried to reach BILL EVEN, JOHN FITZGERALD, JOE GAFFNEY, MOE GREEN and EDDIE GRISWOLD. Got no responses and couldn't find a number for Eddie Griswold. I finally reached LOU RULNICK in West Hartford and had a Jtice chat. He is well, but for some time now he has had to care for his sister who is incapacitated. This is a great drain on him as it would be for anyone. He says, however, she is his sister and he will not complain. We are facing a new decade with ominous clouds on the economic and political horizons. Let us pray that our people, and most especially our leaders, can make sensible decisions to improve the future. To aU a delayed wish for health and good living for the year.

Louis does not admit to slowing down but says he has given up jogging after a broken back, a heart attack and a stroke. A bishop once said in my presence, "Growing old isn't for sissies." Another clergyman wrote, "Don't resent growing old. Not everyone has that privilege." For everyone life is a journey, sometimes short, sometimes long. For all let it be with the expectation that the best is yet ahead. Such a belief has been a great help to me. I was fortunate to have my wife, Lucille, for over 56 years. Then her journey ended shortly before Christmas. It was fitting that she join the Lord at that time of the year when we commemorate His coming to share our life with the shepherds, the kings, and the angels, who belong to aU ages.

3tl GEORGE MACKIE sends news about his "one-time roommate," JOHN F. CHILDS. John ran the New York Marathon two years ago, although he was unable to train properly because he had broken his collarbone. Therefore , his time was a "disaster 6!1.! hours" and he had to walk the last I 0 miles. He ran again this year and won his age group (80 and over) . He notes that he was "satisfied" with his time, 4.39. Great work, John! Class Agent: George A. Mackie

There is little to report about our classmates. YOUR SECRETARY and Lillian are spending the winter months in southern Florida, but any news of '32 will be forwarded for inclusion in the next report. So please send any bit of information - your classmates want to know the latest. We stay in touch with RAY BIALECK, MIKE ZAZZARO, HUGH CAMPBELL and a few others in the Hartford area. Have a good winter and spring.

The JOHN MASON room in the Smith Alumni/Faculty House was dedicated this past June. In attendance were Phyllis and their three sons: Nat, Nick and Sandy (JOHN A. MASON, JR. '66), along with Mark and Harriet (John's brother and sister). A wonderful citation prepared and delivered by JERRY HANSEN '51 related what wonderful contributions to Triltity had been made by John. It was a most fitting and impressive tribute and was made possible in part by your many donations. DONALD and Marie DUMONT made one of their occasional visits to the States in June. Don is in retirement now after a most successful career with the State Department. For many of those years he was the consul general at Dakar, French West Africa. This year, the scholarship from the Class of '34 Scholarship Fund was awarded to Karen Flannery, Class of '94.

Ruthie and I had a wonderful 50th surprise wedding anniversary party given by our four daughters at the Town and County Club in Hartford just before Christmas. It was a gala affair with a string trio, cocktail-buffet, flowers, a cake seven stories high, and entertainment by our four daughters. Among the 120 or so who attended were our four sons-in-law and our eight

grandchildren. We were pleasantly overwhelmed! Class Agent: John E. Kelly William H. Walker 97 West Broad St. Hopewell, N.J. 08525 ~

News is a little scant for this edition. The annual trek to Florida by some of our classmates has been under way since before the holidays. HENRY and Vera SAMPERS have sold their New Jersey home and moved to Pompano Beach. ART and Mary HAZENBUSH have returned to Stuart, Fla. for another season. A letter from BERT BASKERVILLE relates problems he has had in 1990. The onset of cardiac arrhythmia last spring led to a quintuple by-pass, which was so successful that his surgeons followed it up shortly thereafter with a prostatectomy, for an encore. Now recovered, he and Em are back in Florida for the winter. After a week in Princeton Hospital, I was transferred to University of Pennsylvania Hospital for a carotid artery repair. It was followed by a not unusual sequela - a mild stroke affecting my left side. Two months later I came home to recuperate. I am happy to report that my recovery has been pretty complete, and I look forward to your letters so that I can give you a full column in the next edition.

I am turning over a good portion of my share of the Reporter to BOB MCKEE, who has supplied a choice morsel from the past. Therefore, I quote Bob's recent letter in part, as he reminisces about a musical comedy entitled, '"Under Your Hat," written by WILLIAM M. NELSON, and performed at Avery Memorial in Hartford on May 16 and 25, 1936. It involved members of '36 and later classes, and I hope that more than '36ers read it with fond memories. Quoting Bob: '"The plot concerned the adventures of a hillbilly student, Hobart Hubble, who transported a load of granite by railroad handcar to Trinity to pay for his tuition. The stone, of course, was for the College Chapel, at that time approaching completion. The lead was played brilliantly by HERB (SENFTLEBEN) MORE. JACK HANNA, BARD MCNULTY '38, HANK LITTELL, T. LOWRY SINCLAIR and PETER FISH, all members of the Class of 1936, were either members of the cast or had production assignments.'" Bob cannot list the Trinity Troubadours, but recalls CHARLES and WILLIAM KIRBY and AL STARKEY and ART HAZENBUSH '35, and his brother, GREG '38, and BILL BOLES '38. Bob, himself, was orchestral director those nights. Chick Austin, director of Avery Memorial, and later of the Wadsworth Atheneum, and known nationally in the world of the arts, gave invaluable assis-

tance to the enterprise. Again, quoting Bob: '" I recall one scene where four beefy football players, attired in women's costumes, danced on stage as a chorus. After a few clumsy kicks and grinds they started to sing. 'Come on! Come on! Come over the rocks, come over the rocks.' The rest of the lyrics were drowned in a peal of thunderous laughter from the audience. For the record, the remaining lines were, '"We won't mend your clothes or darn your socks, but we will let you buy us bocks.' I cannot account for how I am able to recall these lines." Of BILL NELSON, Bob has the following to say. '" Bill had a heart disability which was probably not correctly diagnosed and treated. Bill's habit of working night and day to meet deadlines, which he continued after finishing college, undoubtedly contributed to his early death. He had great talent, but not enough time to attain his full potential. He was one of my closest friends." Further regarding Bob, in the previous issue I wrote that he had planned a trip to and from Nassau, touching Atlantic ports, and ending in New York. He was obliged to cancel that trip, so, if any of you had thought you might have heard from him, that is the reason you have not. A note from AMOS CARR reports that he and his wife, Louise, arrived home in November from an extended trip to China, and that they may return there for another six months so that he may serve as '"guest instructor" in English diction at Chengo Teachers College. I cannot decipher all of that name. Amos says, "Shades of Dean Hood! Wish I still had his fine text." We wish Amos well in what seems like a great adventure to me. A card from HARRY DAVIS, who has now tangled with a gastroenterologist. Harry seems to have a good way with words, as he says now that he has had to give up surfing, bronco busting and the !OK run. And I had thought he just rode around behind the horse in one of those sulkies! Class Agent: Dr. John G. Hanna

Congratulations to BOB and Vera HAZENBUSH who celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in September. They revisited Los Angeles where they had spent almost half of their married life. Then they took a Trans Canal Cruise, stopping in Mexico, Costa Rica, Cayman Islands and finally Jamaica where they stayed a few days before returning to Tampa and their home in Clearwater, Fla. Bob sends his regrets on missing our 50th Reunion. He is in good health and hopes to make it to our 55th. ln attendance at the Homecoming Weekend in November, when Trinity trounced Amherst, were DR. GENE and Marge D'ANGELO, FRAN and Betty FERRUCCI, HARRY and Subby SANDERS and MIKE and Corrine

SCENT!. We eflioyed a hearty buffet luncheon prior to the games. Subby Sanders had a successful hip replacement early in December. Her recovery will be in time to resume her great golf game. I am heading to Florida to the P.GA. Golf Show in Orlando the end of January. Later I will be playing golf with my sons, Michael and Gary, and my nephew, Bill Ciotto. It will be a wonderful change and I hope to soak up some of the Florida sunshine. Come on, fellas, I am looking forward to getting some news from you.

Frank A. Kelly, Jr. 21 Forest Dr. Ne~on, Conn. 06111 I don't have any news for this issue, so I will just take the occasion to remind you to save June 13-16 for our 50th Reunion. Class Agent & Reunion Gift Chair: Donald J . Day Reunion Chair: Louis E. Buck

G. Robert Schreck 328 Round Cove Rd. Chatham, Mass. 02633 Some of our '39ers were pretty active this past period, but we need more

names and input. HANK HAYDEN had a land rendezvous with DICK CLOW and DAVE KEATfNG at Vachon Island, Wash. Good to hear about your mini-conclave out there in the Northwest. MIKE and Beth BASSFORD took a grand tour of Europe via Hertz or Avis, to Belgium, Luxembourg, and then on to Scotland and London. In a close encounter, said Mike, a wrong-side tractor driver ran into his rearview mirror, a souvenir hunter no doubt. It could be that Mike ran into him. I'll ask Beth some time who hit whom. Otherwise, a fine trip for both. In his Christmas card, ART OLSON extended holiday greetings to all of us. Thanks, Art, for passing it along; it's good to hear from you on Long Island. BILL and Dotty PICKLES filled their summer hosting their lovely grandchildren: Mark, 15; Nancy, 16; and Ian, two; along with the parents. After that "restful" summer with the kids, Bill and Dotty took an extended tour of Europe again; they are now active European travelers. They went by rail this time, stopping in Paris, Nice, Monte Carlo, the "magnificent" Vienna Opera, and then on to Amsterdam. Dotty tells me that Bill had a conversation on the train with Mickey Rooney, but did not recognize him. Mickey is real short so maybe, Bill, you didn't look down far enough. Bill is heading up this June to Manchester, Conn. for his 50th high school reunion; be sure to take in Trin, Bill. To all other '39ers, send us your activity input, we'd like additional names in our next issue. Best of health to all of Trin '39. Class Agent: Ethan F. Bassford

January 20, 1991: Fellow survivors! If these items seem out of date, please realize that the class news reports are submitted three months ahead of publication. Here on the frontier, the current Reporter arrives after deadline date for the next quarterly issue. So, when you send me or JERRY HANSEN '51 your Class of '42 news (as I know you will), we'd appreciate it prior to midJanuary, April, July or October. The Gulf war has just started. My E.S.P. is not functioning on what the world situation will be by April. Lord help us. HAROLD G. JOHNSON reports from his southeastern coastal retreat: "Recovering from brain surgery and doing very well. Our island and home are also recovering from Hurricane Hugo." Harold retired from Stanadyne, Inc. in 1984 as its secretary and general counsel. He's at Isle of Palms, S.C. The day is brightened by a letter from that Will Rogers of medicine, JOHN A. CHURCHJLL, M.D. Not content with suggesting snake venom to me as an anticoagulant-antidote for strokes and the like, John instructs me where to find my own supply of rattlesnakes not far from here in the Cascade Range. Remembering some of this ex-roommate's proclivities, I suspect he wants to start still another business venture. John reports that he and Nadine visited the Trinity campus in the late '80s: "walked the walk and went in the chapel. There aren't any more elms, of course, otherwise the place looked much the same except there were all these boys and girls around. But then it was on the weekend. Saw good old Jarvis Hall, too." The Churchills are outdoor people. They're planning an extended vacation this year in the Big Bend country of Texas, searching not only for botanical specimens but also '"the perfect chili." Last year they e(\joyed the Brownsville/Rio Grande Valley area of southeast Texas, a destination that YOUR REPORTER et ux also like. In fact Ruth and I are aiming for our annual WW U bomb group's reunion in that region (South Padre Island/Harlingen) this fall. RICHARD C. BESTOR and wife, Jean, have discovered bowling as a stimulating activity. They contribute their prowess to the Windsor, Conn. leagues. Dick claims the local miasmic winter climate gives his sinus trouble, but he came through youthfully loud and clear on the phone. He did say though that "a little" tennis is enough

these days. He's working with DON VIERING on preliminary plans for our Fiftieth Reunion. Wow, that's next year! JOHN A. BOND, retired professor, moved from Colorado to Lawrence, Kan. to be near his grandchildren. He occasionally visits the home folks in Minnesota. John hears from his old Northam roommate, FRANC LADNER of Cape Cod, and reports him still active in his hobby of antique toys. I'U go out on a limb, remembering Franc, and guess that this hobby is not unremunerative.

I called JAMES D. CUMMINS, JR., who said he's now disabled and no longer active in real estate there in Virginia Beach. Jim was interested to hear an old World War II recollection of mine: I'd stumbled upon his friend and fellow Deke, BILL OLIVER '41 , in a Brussels cafe one evening in 1945. Golf, that blessing'bane bestowed upon us by our Scottish ancestors, is still a year-round activity of some classmates - especially those who've migrated to mild climates. An example is CHARLES A. KEUHN of the coastal Pamlico River region of North Carolina. Retired from the Hamilton Beach Division of Scovill, Charles is near golf and grandchildren, both of which are favorite diversions of his. (Note: reported by wife, Martha.) Christmas card tidbits: GEORGE JACOBSEN says he and Alice had son, Rod, and family for Thanksgiving at their Arizona "pueblo." Their card was a beautiful Christmas Eve night photo of their neighborhood on a small lake, surrounded by 2,000 candle-lit luminaries. MILFORD F. RHINES said, "Spending three months in Sarasota, Fla. Don't think I'll miss our snowstorms." Fran and JACK SWIFI' continue to er\ioy life in Islamabad, Pakistan, where they now expect to be at least until Nov. 1991. Their most recent adventure was a trip to Hunza in the high Karakorams near the Chinese border of Pakistan. Class Agent: Charles F . Johnson II

John L. Bonee, Esq. One State St. Hartford,Conn. 06103 JERRY CUPPIA was honored last fall at Homecoming when President Tom Gerety dedicated a room in the new Alumni/Faculty House in his honor. The essence of President Gerety's remarks are herein quoted: "This morning we happily pay tribute to a most loyal friend of this College, Jerome C. Cuppia, Jr., Class of 1943. It is a pleasure to dedicate a room in this alumni/ faculty house in his honor, because in so many ways Jerry represents the finest ideals in an alumnus of this College. Accomplished in the business world, Jerry cultivated a balanced private life as well, enriched by close ties to family and friends. Jerry had a well-rounded undergraduate experience at Trinity, the kind we like to think this College does better than any other, and he frequently expressed his gratitude for the wonderful education he received at Trinity. A member of the football and swimming teams, he majored in history and French and was awarded the Fer-

guson Prize in History and Political Science. He was a member of the Political Science Club all four years at Trinity, vice president of the International Relations Club, and a member of Delta Psi fraternity. He was always working, his classmates observed; he was a man in perpetual motion. One of this favorite jobs was driving President Remsen Ogilby to conferences at other colleges. He had the deepest respect for the President and still holds his memory dear. Like others in his Class, Jerry saw his undergraduate career interrupted by the war. Graduating in December, 1942, he immediately entered Marine Corps Officer's Candidate School. He served 18 months in the Pacific and participated in the landing on Guam. He completed active duty in November, 1945, leaving the Marines with the rank of Captain. In 1947, after receiving his M.BA. from Harvard Business School, he started his business career as a sales representative for the Johns-Manville Corporation. Shortly thereafter he began his distinguished service with Merrill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith. In 1960 he was named vice president and manager of its foreign office. Based in New York City, he ran Merrill Lynch's sales office and maintained liaison between that office and three foreign locations. Retiring to Hilton Head, S.C., Jerry and his wife, Doris, now live in Bluffton, S.C., where they can er\ioy year-round golf outings and visits from their six children and their families. We salute and thank him today." NICK MOTTO has a new residence: 20 Diane Dr., South Windsor, Conn. 06074, telephone number: 203-644-6318. Nick is a former Connecticut state representative from the City of Hartford and former commandant of the Connecticut Veterans Home and Hospital. He is now retired. He is the father of two sons and has eight grandchildren. ERNIE GUILLET writes that he has a new residence, as follows: Bailey Rd., RR #1, Box 780, Shrewsbury, Vt. 05738, tel. 802-492-3366. He adds that he is retired. Class Agent: Carlos A. Richardson, Jr.

Elliott K. Stein 215 Gibbs Ave. Newport, R.I. 02840 At a time when most of us are thinking of slowing down, if not actually doing so, LARRY ROBERTS has come up with a perfect prescription for staying young: keep busy. He writes that he is still running the Gordon Conferences at Holderness School in Plymouth, Vt., where he has taught mathematics and served as resident manager. One set of these conferences takes place at Salve Regina in Newport, R.I., near YOUR SECRETARY's home. Larry's daughter, Hannah Artuso, also helps run a week of dance workshops at Salve Regina in mid-August every year. Larry writes that "life is different alone, but never quiet." He is treasurer of the Boy Scouts, vice president and chairman of the Visiting Nurses' annual fund drive, on the by-laws revision group for South Woodstock Academy and Historical Society, and for the Norman Williams Public Library there. He also serves on

the finance committee for Mertens House (a nursing home extended care facility), is assistant verger at St. James Church, and is on the advisory board for a Holderness School health information group and the Woodstock Correctional Center. If all this doesn't keep Larry "out of mischief," as he writes, he just received his 10-gallon blood donor pin, and helps the American Legion with their bingo games. "In my spare time," he continues, Larry reads, writes letters and works around the house. He says there's a trick in all this: as one grows older, "he doesn't need as much sleep" as younger people do. TOM GRIMES writes from the other end of the country - Santa Maria, Calif., where he says he's "happy and healthy." Golf is an all-year activity there, "as is sunbathing." We know, we know, and can agree. Any New Englander such as Larry Roberts and your secretary can verify that at this time of year. Tom is still active helping people do revocable living trusts. "You should try one," he suggests. DR. RAY BURROS is still in the defense electronics business, and is hoping to branch out into some part-time teaching and consulting. He lives in Huntington, N.Y. BOB TOLAND writes from Malvern, Pa., where he has just played a large part in his high school's 50th reunion campaign. Bob writes, "You can imagine how satisfying it was to reach $355,000" in this fund-raiser. Bob's secondary school is the Episcopal Academy in Merion, Pa. Of the sum raised, $200,000 came from an anonymous donor to establish a Class of 1940 Faculty Enrichment Fund. Something to think about, guys, for our own Trinity Class of 1944 Reunion in 1994. BOB "Bos" BOSTELMAN and his wife, Edith, now live near Lincolnton, N.C., where an original draft of the Declaration of Independence was written. Bob says he learned from our Trinity Reporter notes about your secretary and his 50th high school reunion at Bulkeley in Hartford. You never know where some information will appear. GEORGE BAXTER's daughter, Carol, presented him with a new granddaughter, Lauren Joy D'Ambrosia, on Sept. 24. She joined big brothers, Stephen and Brian. By the time you read this, EDMOND KELLY should have retired from his company, Crocker Bank Forms. So let's hear from you guys about what's going on with you and your families. Have a happy and healthy 1991 and many more. Class Agents: Elliott K. Stein John T. Fink Walter H. Ghent Richard C. Hastings, Jr.

JOHN RI'ITER wrote to bring me up to date on his life. He is retired from the Delco Remy division of General Motors, and is keeping busy as a manufacturer's representative. He didn't tell me what his line is, but he did tell me that retirement was not quite what he anticipated. Evidently his work pace is rugged, with 40 to 50 hour weeks not uncommon. But he didn't sound unhappy. BILL DAKIN called to tell me that he and his wife had just completed two ambitious (and probably expensive) building projects. They bought prime land near Lake Tahoe, and then built a three-bedroom, two-bath chalet on their property. Still having a few bucks left,.they then embarked on remodeling their kitchen in suburban San Francisco (Marin County). This summer they plan a trip to Spain and Portugal. TOM GUERTIN, a retired chemical engineer, left American Cyanamid live years ago to form an executive recruitment firm for chemical engineers. His clients include large corporations (such as his old company) who are seeking chemists - but one of his less normal assignments oflate involves the recruitment of chemists for court cases. These chemists are hired by law firms looking for expert witnesses in chemical pollution cases. LYMAN POWELL told me that he stopped running and marathon biking to save strain on his knees, but that he still gets great pleasure from upland pheasant and grouse shooting behind his two trained hunting dogs. Lyman is president of the trust division of the First National Exchange Bank in Fond duLac, Wis. DAVE RENKERT and I talked, with mutual pleasure, of the joys of fly fishing for trout on the famous chalk streams of Pennsylvania Dave and I share a love for this sport. His insurance brokerage business flourishes, especially his innovative "live endowment program." In this program, clients can make ma,jor, tax-deductible, charity donations to colleges (like Trinity) in the form of life insurance, paid off in five years, with the college as the beneficiary. Finally, I attended a Class Reunion Conference at Trinity in October. Also

Because of the holidays, etc., news is somewhat sparse, but I do have the following to report: Regarding the Reunion Committee meeting held on Nov. 2, 1990 at the new Alumni House (Smith House), plans are moving along well and the June 11-14, 1992 Reunion will include everything from seminars comprised of members of our Class, to a riverboat dinner cruise, class history and memorabilia. Mark the dates! ~AUL RUSSO took a wrong turn on Interstate 495 and showed up at my office for a free meal. I was glad to see him, he looked great, and was driving his new red Ferrari convertible. If he had that in 1953, Helen may never have seen him. DUNCAN BENNETT just returned from an extended vacation in Hawaii where he visited with FRANK SOLMSSEN. BROOKS HARLOW writes from Ormond Beach, Fla. that he has become very active in AARP and is vice president of the local golden age dance group known as the "Highsteppers." He loves Florida and looks forward to seeing anyone who ventures down his way. From Raleigh, N.C. comes word that DON FINKBEINER was elected chairman of the board of trustees of his local chapter of Planned Parenthood, and that he plans to stay active for a few more years before retiring. DAVE ELLIOTT had such a great time at our 25th, I assumed that I would have heard from him by now. If you are out there, Dave, please write from Procter and Gamble and let us know you are still keeping America's laundry clean. RON LaBELLA was visiting in the Hartford area from Sacramento, Calif. recently and met with FRED TOBIN and DON STOKES at the Chapel Hotel. Ron writes that the visit brought back a lot of good memories. In a prospective change of career, PAUL MARION just returned from an extended visit to Central America, and is thinking of becoming a missionary and returning there on a semi-permanent basis. Paul, good luck in your decision-making process. Keep us posted.

PETER GOODWIN has lived in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands since 1971 and currently serves as publicity officer for the V.I. Education Department. Recently Peter took a three-month leave of absence to run for the V.I. legislature. Unsuccessful in his first venture into politics, Peter vows to return to the fray in '92! Peter has also devoted a lot of time to the Great Adventure athletic project which encourages young VJ. athletes to come to prep school and college in the United States. Some of the basketball players in that program are now making their way into the professional ranks.

Shepard M. Scheinberg, Esq. P.O. Box 871 1 Bayside Ave. East Quogue, N.Y. ll942 YOUR SECRETARY received a note from Maureen Kenney, widow of JOHN KENNEY, who advised me that she had received a lovely note from CHARUE BOZZUTO with a check, which she forwarded to me. I have sent this donation on to the College to be placed in the John Kenney Fund. Maureen asked that I pass along to you all her appreciation of your remembrance of John. BILL ABELES, whose office at Wheat First Securities is in Hagerstown, Md., sent me an article that appeared in the Dec. 17, 1990 issue of The Washington Post. The article described in great length how PETER R. ("Wild Boar") HENRIQUES, George Mason University history professor, peeked into the wrong Library of Congress file and stumbled onto the records of a sensational, long-forgotten , 18th-century trial alleging the attempted debauchery of George Washington's sister-in-law by a prominent Fairfax County cleric who later became the first president's physician. Henriques is writing a scholarly article on the trial. (Hey Peter, forget this scholarly article and write an article for Playboy. SEX sells, even historical sex.) AL TUBMAN, as treasurer of the board of Youville Hospital and Rehabil-

Richard W. Stockton 121 Whittredge Rd. Summit, N.J. 07901 A belated, but no less sincere wish from YOUR FRIENDLY NEW CLASS SECRETARY to each of you for a happy, healthy balance of the new year. As you can see, my learning curve about these notes' closing dates is still accelerating. Had I my wits about me, I would have realized that when I sent in my last notes they would, in fact, be the first correspondence in 1991. Nonetheless, I don't want to miss the opportunity to wish you all the best for 1991. You may recall that in the initial report (the Reunion notes) and in the winter notes, I had a brief blurb asking each of you to communicate at your convenience about the obviously interesting lives that you, your family and other Trinity classmates are leading in order that we could share them. These blurbs produced a modest return (very modest!) and so I chose to ratchet up the effort and, through the good services of the alumni office, sent a letter to each of you dated Nov. 28. This was not a blurb! This was a plea full of appropriate wheedling and ca,joling that I was certain would evoke a tidal wave of beautifully detailed and well articulated bon mots. I went so far as to purchase a new mailbox prior to releasing that letter, so sure was I that my current standard size mailbox (which is frequently bulging beyond allowable occupancy with exciting material ranging from "occupant" to Lands End flyers and, of course, the omnipresent bundle of bills) would not suffice. I even told my wife to be ready at a moment's notice to help the mailman carry in the mail, as I had most certainly unleashed what would be a hectic, but nonetheless, exciting onslaught of responses from the Class of '60. If you count a single news-filled Christmas card, we heard from four of our 253 stalwarts - that's 1.58 percent! The good news is that we can do better. Give me an "N," give me an "E,"

give me a "W," give me an "S." What have you got? NEWS! To report on those of you who did take the time to write or call, and to give you the results of some phone calls that I made, I shall proceed . . . ln JOHN (Drill-em, Fill-em and Billem) BASSETT's chatty Christmas card he mentions several things, at least a couple of which are worthy of being reported here. The Bassetts continue in

their tradition of academic pursuits and excellence, with wife, Marlene, getting her master's; son, Eric, his bachelor's this year; and gorgeous daughter, Kim, graduating from high school. More good news from Bass is that his ageless mom decided to follow Horace Greeley's suggestion and has moved from northern New Jersey (Teaneck) to Kalispell, Mont. Not just moved there, but this terrific gal even bought her own house. Now before you start to laugh about Kalispell, Mont., you should know that I checked it out. First of all, it does exist. Secondly, it's the ninth largest city in Montana with a population of 10,649. My atlas says 10,648, but I added Mrs. Bassett. I got a chatty note from BRUCE STONE, who, among other things, says that he saw ERNIE HADDAD visiting his money at Trinity for the Amherst game last fall. He also reports that he's working as a vice president with a fit and able CARRINGTON CLARK at Pru Bache Securities. He's Pru Bache's Northeast senior man. According to Bruce, ART GREEN has moved to a new address and now lives at 215 Cross Road Lane in Atlanta. He is still actively practicing medicine there and the Greens and Stones got together at the wedding of Art's son last June. Bruce further reports on a "name from the past" category. He recently heard from Ngugen ("call me Jack") Oanh. Some of us may remember that Jack was an economics professor at Trinity for a few years and is now back in Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam, but plans to come to the States sometime this spring. Maybe he should spend some time at the White House on Eco 101 and how to fix a recession. CURT SCRffiNER and I were sharing recession stories (perhaps by the time this reaches you the Northeast economy will have had an uptick or two). I think that being in the real estate business in Maine has got to be a good place to be for the long-term future . Curt was recently honored by being put on the board of directors of the Hurricane Island Outward Bound organization. He is no newcomer to Outward Bound or things like it. ln the fairly recent past, Curt went on a NOJ..S (National Outdoor Leadership School) venture and I've seen him recently and he looks no worse for the wear. ln fact, he looks pretty terrific. JACK and Cynthia LAMOTHE continue to do well in Boston. Barbara and I have visited them recently and are going to be their paddle partners in a mixed member/guest paddle tournament. The gold is probably safe. CHUCK MIDDLETON writes that he has become the senior surgeon at Day Kimball Hospital in Putnam, Conn. He reports that when not cutting, he can be found skiing in Vermont. Ah, the perks of being the senior man on staff! Chuck also tells us that he saw JULES WORTHINGTON who is looking fit as ever. And, why not? Jules lives on Martha's Vineyard and works as an artist there. Some guys have all the luck. PETE THOMAS reminds us of an admonishment he received from a publisher 20 years ago - "Don't write for money." And yet he does just that, so keep looking for his next piece. To sup-

plement his avocation, he teaches at the University of Bridgeport. Your Secretary and ED CIMlLLUCA see each other whenever he's not out of town giving speeches. His daughter, COURTNEY '90, has announced her engagement, and son, Dana '92 , has just gone off for a semester in Spain. Ed, of course, is one of the research gurus at Shearson Lehman Hutton (senior vice president, research). SAKI GREENWALD is vice president of marketing and merchandising at Gerson and Gerson Inc. in New York City. They are a manufacturer of girls' clothing. Saki and I had lunch a few weeks ago and he told me that he has just been put on the board of directors of the Children's Wear Manufacturing Association. Clearly, if any of you are planning any more children, and they happen to be young girls, you know whom to contact. RAY BEECH reports that he has moved his offices to a new location. I'm not sure exactly where that location is, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's near Hartford. He keeps getting spotted at every Trinity hockey game played throughout the Northeast. Ray has been a devoted follower of the Trinity scene, as many of you know, and his passion, like your secretary's, appears to be hockey. It also gives him a good chance to see young Chris, who's a sophomore at Trinity. BOBBY JOHNSON and I stay in touch and share war stories ranging from the excitement of middle management in a large corporation to children at Trinity - two things that we have in common. We try to learn from each other what our sons are doing. We certainly don't hear stories directly from our own boys. I chatted with RICK RICHARDSON the other day. He reports that all is well, although he could use a little more business (there's a lot of that going around). Daughter, Merrill, is a junior at Trinity and liking it very much. What's not to like! To those of you who have shared your thoughts with me, I thank you. To the rest of you, won't you each drop me a note or call me and bring me up-todate on what's going on. Also, while you're at it, why don't you mark your calendar for every three months to give me a quick thumbnail update. Stay well, stay happy and stay in touch.

PAUL DEVENDITTIS has been named acting dean of instruction at Nassau Community College; his 28year-old son, Louis, is an assistant to the director of communications at Lorimar Studios in Hollywood. TONY SANDERS penned a trenchant letter to The New York Times about the Persian Gulf crisis, opining that the oil sheiks will fight to the last American. By now you've doubtless been contacted about our 30th Reunion June 13-16. Among the special highlights for 196lers will be the dedication of the THOMAS D.

His quote is, "Before you can deliver great client service, you need a great client service philosophy." JOHN GITTINS' paintings are included in a show at the Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. Museum of Art. The show will continue through August 1991. A Sept. 7, 1990 article in The Hartford Couront describes the career of PAUL LaROCCA. After his graduation from Trinity and law school, he worked as a lawyer in Hartford. He changed professions in 1970 and subsequently received his teaching certificate. On Sept. 7 he was honored as Rocky Hill, Conn.'s ''Teacher of the Year." STEPHEN WCKTON writes, ''This could be entitled never a dull moment!

For those who made it to the Class of 1963 annual Homecoming dinner on Nov. 3, you should note that it had two firsts. The first first was meeting our second Class of '63 scholar, Kisha Blanchard '94. Kisha is a graduate of Sacred Heart High School in Waterbury, Conn. DEAN JACK WAGGETT '63 reports that she did very well in her first semester. Also at the dinner was our first scholar, Tony Canata '93, who has blossomed in the year lapsed since our last Homecoming dinner when he was first introduced. Our Class has a lot to be proud of in shepherding these two very talented, bright and personable students. The second first was that dinner was held in the new Smith Alumni/Faculty House on Vernon Street. This departure from the usual Hamlin Hall rendezvous was a delightful surprise. I believe ours was the first class function to christen the Smith dining room. More news from classmates and their children in school: TOM MARSHALL's two sons, John and Timothy, are at Wittenberg, Class of '92 and '94, respectively. Tom goes on to report that he and BILL WEBER '61 just celebrated their 20th year of law practice together in New Britain and West Hartford. Weber & Marshall now has 12 lawyers. In the new baby department, DAVE BREWSTER and wife, Gloria, report the birth of Caroline Elizabeth on Sept. 9, 1990. I believe this renaissance in baby-making will keep this class young for too many years to come. Perhaps the Sirnziks, the Brewsters and the Howlands know something the rest of us maybe don't know; or maybe it's the other way around! At any rate, congratulations to the Brewsters! Dave reigns as professor of vascular surgery at M.G.H., Boston, and Harvard Medical School, Cambridge. They say that living in Buffalo and dying is a bit redundant. PERRY RlANHARD reports happily that he is alive and well and not living in Buffalo any more. He and Sue moved back to Connecticut: 37 Dogwood Ln., Trumbull 06611. How he is still with that same company, Westvaco Corp., all these years is another Class mystery. Perry is now in the Meriden, Conn. office as field sales manager. More news of JIM BORDEN, S.V.P., Chase Manhattan Bank, in the form of opinion and quotes in the "Bank Letter." Jim now heads up New York spot

FX trading for Chase which reported strong earnings in the first quarter of last year. Jim, we hope to see you back at Trinity some day and maybe you can explain to non-bank types just what FX means. I hope it is not a new Wall Street drug; LBO was just too much to swallow. RICHARD BIRNEY..SMITH, artistic director of Te Deum Concert Society in Hamilton, Ontario, is offering his audience a spectacular season of music this year. So if you get up that way before May, be sure to attend. In addition to his duties with Te Deum, Richard conducted the Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra and was organ soloist in two programs last January. In June he conducted a massed choir in celebration of the 65th Anniversary of the路 United Church of Canada In August it was a solo on the harpsichord at Dundurn Castle in Hamilton. And so it goes with Richard. Great going! While dialing for dollars at Trinity's recent phonathon, I was able to cofliure up the following bits and pieces of info from some of our classmates. Because they were so eager to give and the dialing got so furious, my accuracy may be a bit off. Therefore, I'd be pleased if those listed would write in with any additions or corrections. BOB ANNING was listed as one of the top 10 brokers in the country, according to the November issue of Money Magazine. He is still a V.P. with Merrill Lynch in Cincinnati. His wife, Betsey, is president of a children's hospital. Their children bypassed Trinity and went straight to Skidmore. I believe they have two out of three currently there. One son is a bio mlijor and is either a freshman ... or the senior? (my notes are garbled). Bob, you're going to have to help me with an update. BOB RUBEL lives and works in Holcomb, N.Y. where he has a machine and tool shop. We had a short discussion about his building track mechanisms for snowmobiles. TIM JOHNSON, meanwhile, is into plastics research where recycling is the current big issue, as you'd guess. He has two daughters: one is a junior at Grinnell and the other is old enough to be working and is "now earning an honest day's wage." (I say that because I am still unemployed as of this writing. My sense is that I will be earning my "day's wage" soon, since four goodfitting oppo~ties have popped up recently, all of which I am madly pursuing and, happily, vice versa.) TOM HALLORAN is also here in Boston where he manages 100 Federal Street, a one-million square foot skyscraper which used to be known as Pregnant Alice (because of its "bulge" from floors IO through 20) . Anyway, Pregnant Alice is doing very well, thanks to Tom's leadership as a property manager with Compass, Equitable's new property management company. DR. JOHN GAINES is still in Seattle and his son, John, Jr., is a sophomore at Trinity. Finally, if you are a sailor and are foolish enough to own a sailboat, classmate STEVE HAARSTICK can help you with your sail needs. He owns Haarstick Sails with lofts in Ossining-on-Hudson, Annapolis, Narragansett Bay and Lake Champlain. He has his own de-

signs and uses an automated cutting technique which, I think, he patented! Class Agents: Scott W. Reynolds Michael A. Schulenberg

It won't be long until June, and The Big Reunion. I trust you all had lots of fun filling out your questionnaires and

inventing illustrious histories for yourselves. They weren't so bad, really, and the whole process brought about at least one unlooked-for benefit: GEORGE BIRD called me to check on something, revealing that he's back living in Boston (and has been for a while, the rascal). We got a little bit caught up, and I look forward to getting more caught up with more of you at the Reunion and through the materials being gathered, which promise to be fascinating. I understand, in fact, that the 1966 Class Reunion Book is the first such document to have its motion picture rights optioned prior to publication! Orion Pictures must have been following the burgeoning dramatic career of the REV. WlLUAM EAKINS, whose reading of "Peter and the Wolf' with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra last November was a highlight of the Symphony on the Hill Series at Trinity Episcopal Chur~h in Hartford. But who can say, really, how these things happen? All I know is the filming is supposed to begin on Friday and continue right through. BILL SCHWEITZER negotiated the deal, so we know there's something in it for the Trinity Alumni Association, at any rate. Speaking of Bill, I have learned (and this time I'm really not kidding) that he's wearing yet another hat now, and this one's perfect: Schweitz is now counsel to the American League. This is truly from the Jobs Made in Heaven department! In other job news, I got a very nice late-year note from LINDSAY DORRIER, keeping us all posted. He's now director of Virginia's Department of Criminal Justice Services. Despite several accompanying articles he sent to clarify the duties of this position, I remain a little hazy on details, but the newspaper photos left little doubt that it's but a step on the road to governorhood. Lindsay promises to see y'all in June. So do I, but keep the news coming right along anyway . .. Class Agents & Reunion Gift Chairs: William H. Schweitzer, Esq. Ernest C.

Hearken, hearken! The Trinity event of the decade is scheduled for June 1114, 1992. This will be the 25th Reunion of the Class of '67. According to The New York Times (April, 1984), Trinity College's "Class of '67 is considered to be that College's greatest." Consequently, the 21 boards at Trinity- Directors, Fellows, Trustees, Fraternity Council, etc. - have mutually declared our Reunion to be a holy day of obligation. Please plan now to attend. Also, to help on the Reunion Committee, please fax your credentials to 203-677-5349. We tracked down COLONEL JOHN R. RAY, JR. In a past issue it was noted how the military mumbo-jumbo made it difficult for a civilian to find anyone. Well now it's all cleared up: John is

deputy director of aerospace maintenance on PCS at HQ-USAFE in Ramstein near Kaiserslautem. This is John's 13th move since he joined the military. John keeps all the planes in Germany flying. You can reach John at Box 7451, APO NY 09012-5000. If you want to spin a few propellers, go to Frankfurt, drive south 50 miles, tum right and drive another 50 miles. John will meet you on the runway. JOHN HEVNER is now senior vice president of Provident Capital Management in Philadelphia Like a lot of us, John's life revolves around family activities, mostly children, and career. Jennifer is a sophomore at Amherst (imagine choosing Amherst over Trinity!) and Donald is a junior at the Haverford School. John is still married to Anne, who was a regular guest at Trinity in their undergraduate days. Anne is on the board of trustees of the Baldwin School. John is keeping his handicap down, playing golf regularly. There are lots of Trinity people in the Philadelphia area and we're delighted to have John on our 25th Reunion Committee. Provident Capital manages corporate profit sharing and pension plan money. So those of you who want to see your assets grow, give John a call at 215-5616000. Note: Our 25th Reunion will be June 11-14, 1992. Everyone is expected to attend. There will be lots of prizes, surprises, sunrises, and revises. Although Madonna and Kissinger are probably out, we do think Marquis and The Merrynotes will come. BILL ROTH is completely immersed in life at Culver Academy in Indiana. Bill is a master instructor of history, including AP courses; is a college adviser; coaches the varsity swim teams; and is available 24 hours a day. Culver is the nation's largest (in area) preparatory school, and is exceptionally wellrun and financially secure. There are 800 co-ed students who end up in the finest colleges and universities in the world. Bill and Sue have three terrific kids, all doing well. Andrew is a sophomore at the University of Mississippi; Tim is at St. Paul's; and Melissa, a 13year-old whiz in basketball, starts at Culver in 1991. Sue keeps her sanity working as an insurance consultant in nearby South Bend. Bill has done a great job in his profession of teaching teenagers, and is pleased how productive his career has been. During the summer Bill teaches sailing. So those of you who are interested in what happened in earlier times, or who need help in tacking, ring Bill at 219-8423311. RIC CATON! is flying high with Delta Airlines where he has been a pilot for 19 years. Ric flies a couple days every week, and in his off-time belongs to a flying club where he also soars the wild blue. His future plans include building his own airplane. Ric "loves to fly and it shows" (hey, that would be a good advertisement for Delta). Flying is definitely a big part of the Catoni family. Candace, Ric's only wife, also flies for Delta She has been a flight attendant for 20 years. This makes Candace both younger than Ric, yet senior in tenure. But that's the way it is with lots of Trinity wives, younger but senior. Ric is also thrilled to be on the 25th Reunion Committee, and we might draft Can-

dace as a consultant, she having run her own successful reunion. At any rate, if any of you have a fear of flying (or just read the book because it is banned in Tupelo), give Ric a buzz at 815-338-8877. ALEX LEVI is thriving in New York City where he is a successful psychologist. He also teaches at Cornell Medical Center and at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. He keeps his magnificent body in true temper by playing squash and race-walking. (He has forsaken the hairline to focus on the waistline.) Alex is overjoyed to be a member of the 25th Reunion Committee. Alex and his lovely wife, Vicky, are in a race with Jack and Helen Curtis: Alex and Jack are trying to be the oldest new fathers in the Class. JACK CURTIS thinks he'll beat Alex to fatherhood by 15 days. This column, which focuses on the sex lives of the rich and famous, and poor and infamous, and everyone else, will keep you posted. Jack is practicing law in San Francisco where he is a specialist in ERISA law and ESOP buyouts. In fact, Jack is considered to be the top legal expert in the U.S. in the field of using pension money to back employees in the purchase of their companies. According to a front page article in the business section of The Spokane Chronicle, (my spies are everywhere), Jack is "the country's most knowledgeable ESOP authority, period!" National magazines and leading newspapers have called Jack the nation's top legal expert in his field . Jack's firm is Keck, Mahin and Cate. Jack and Helen live in the city, but have a weekend home in Napa Their goal is to own a few acres of vineyards so they can bottle some Chateau Curtis. If you want to drink some wine and tell some lies, or you need some tips on doing an LBO, call Jack at 415-392-7077. (P.S. Jack: You, too, are on the 25th Reunion Committee.) RICK KEMPER is president of Lee Metal Products in Littlestown, Pa Rick has been with Lee Metal for more than 20 years. The company is very successful and sells a variety of storage and cabinet products to the office and athome markets. Rick and Louise live in Baltimore and have two thriving children, Anne (13) and Steven (nine). If you're looking for a place to store your bowling trophies, give Rick a call at 717-359-4111. JOHN GREANEY is doing well in the metals business. John is plant superintendent for a 100-person factory in Waterbury, Conn. The company, Platt Brothers, has been around since the 1700s, even having made zinc uniform buttons in the Civil War. John has no complaints and, like most of his classmates, works hard and e(\joys his family. He and Barbara have a beautiful daughter, Shannon, who is 13. Barbara teaches elementary school and continually fills in the gaps in John's Trinity education . .. like reading and writing. Why any of you would need an ingot of zinc, or however zinc is sold, we haven't a clue. But if you do, John is ready to take your order at 203-7534194. How would you like to walk into a huge stadium and have 90,000 people stand up and scream and cheer for you? Well, that's what 90,000 people

did for BILL BRADBURY. Not only that, Bill also received a commemorative ring, sweatsuit, flags; etc. That's because Bill was a participant in the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles. (You would have learned this earlier if I were your secretary in 1984, but then we had Brickley.) Bill was both a team selector and business manager for the U.S. Men's Field Hockey Team. This was the first time the U.S. had fielded a team since 1956. Bill's team did a great job and became the darling of the Olympic crowd. With considerably less cheering, Bill practices law in Morristown, NJ. He is a partner in Ma:ruiing, Kinkead, Brooks and Bradbury (guess which one is Bill). Bill sees ROD and HARRY WOOD regularly, and is still active on the national level in field hockey. For those of you who wish to kiss an Olympic ring, or get your will updated, call Bill at 215-279-1800.

PAUL SCHEINBERG, M.D. achieved some celebrity earlier this year, albeit unwittingly. He was interviewed in a segment on the topic of sports and its impact on society for Jane Pauley's TV program,"Real Life," in January. Paul, who says he's never been much interested in sports, was introduced to the Pauley show by a friend who teaches a class on being a knowledgeable sports fan . Paul recently ran into classmates DAVID INWOOD and TOM SAFRAN in New York.

Our classmate, JOHN CHAPIN , has been praised by The Hartford. Courant's Northeast Magazine more extensively than any other person in the memory of YOUR SECRETARY. John's picture, with his ever-present and dashing bow tie, covered the front page of the magazine and he was labeled the "Prince of Downtown." He has become a legend in Hartford; and the article, which took up virtually the entire magazine, reviewed his personal and family history in the same fashion as it would for a Kennedy-esque luminary. His Hartford police days just after his graduation from Trinity were recounted, and then, more recently, his entrepreneurial efforts with his highly successful restaurant, Shenanigans, and his less successful (due to Hartford's problems, not John's) jazz nightclub/restaurant called Lloyds. John is now an executive with an organization called the Greater Hartford Convention and Visitor's Bureau, hoping to revitalize Hartford's devastated downtown culture as a result of the economic downturn of the '90s, among other things. He continues to live in Farmington with his wife, Libby, and seven-year-old twins, Seth and Lucy, and daughter, Dana, 10. PAUL M. HERRON is manager of business analysis for the radio pharmaceutical business in DuPont Merck Pharmaceutical, Inc., a new joint venture between DuPont and Merck. ALAN GlBBY has written that he is

sony to have missed "the Big 20!" He also said that he did not recognize any of the guys in our Class picture and wonders if they were really in our Class. Funny, they all looked the same to Your Secretary. Perhaps my vision is clouded by my tenacious optimism! As of Oct. 31 , 1990, and after 20 years of service, STEVE TODY has retired from the U.S. Navy with the rank of commander. This "retirement" is the first which I have had to announce on these pages for our Class and, although it may seem somewhat amazing, many of us will be envying Steve.

STEVE KEENEY has been the central figure in unraveling a complex murder case in southern California. The case involved the daughter of a parishioner at Keeney's church in Louisville. Those of us who follow what goes on in San Diego have followed the matter and Steve's efforts for some time now. Several publishing and movie production companies are interested in bringing the story to the screen. Hopefully, Steve can come to Reunion in June and review this fascinating story with us. YOUR SECRETARY looks forward to seeing MIKE JAMES and his wife for dinner in Los Angeles in the near future. Mike is a sports editor for The L.A Times. He and his wife and two children live in Costa Mesa. In April GAIL BURNS DOWNS moved to London to become managing director of Engineering Insurance Co.

Please make your Reunion Class Gift now if you've notalready done so. We want to help the College and set the record - PETER LAWRENCE and JACK REALE and all of us committee members are working hard, so please give. And make plans now to attend Reunion June 13-16.

some surprises about how much we all mean to one another.

hether you're flipp ing th rough th e pages of Coumret magazine, picking out a children's book or visiting an art gallery, you might spot artwork by Frank Riccio '79. Riccio's varied talents include painting and illustrating - as well as j uggling and storytelling. His art is a regular feature in Coumret magazine and he has done editorial illustrations for more th an 30 newspapers and magazines including Tire New York Times, Sports Illustrated, Fortu rre and Harpers. He has illustrated several children's books includingj olrrrny A ppleseed and Tir e Fables clj Aesop published by Calico Press, and Tir e World cif Shoes and H iawatlra by Silver Burdett. H e recently did the cover illus.rration for Sundays at Moosewood Restaurarrt, a cookbook of ethnic and regional recipes published by Simon & Schuster Inc. This spring, his pastel drawi ngs of Califomia oak trees were exhibited at the Helio Galleries in N ew York C ity and his landscape oil paintings were displayed at th e Anna Howard Gallery in W ashington Depot, Conn. His work has been shown at numerous other galleries, incl uding ones in N ew J ersey and N ew Mexico. R iccio's latest proj ect is in a slightly different vein. He has been commissioned by Sport Art, Inc., in cooperation with th e Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass., to create three editions of etchings to commemorate the l OOth anni versary ofbasketball, which was invented in that city in 1891. The etchings' titles and cast of characters have already been detennin ed: "The T all Men," "The Showm en" and "The Go-T o G uys" will feature players such as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bob Cousy, W alt Frazier, John Havlicek and W ilt C hamberlain . As pan of his research for the etchin gs, Riggio said he intended to spend "a lot of tim e in from of th e Hall of Fame's exhibits of old basketball photographs" because standard library resources on basketball history are sparse. The special edition prints he creates- as well as posters deri ved from the prints- will be available fo r purchase at the Basketball Hall of Fam e by autumn . Riccio attended Trinity for two years before deciding he wanted to lea m about illustration and transferring to Pratt Institute where he eam ed a bachelor of fi ne arts in communication design . He now lives in a 250-year-old restored barn in W est R eddi ng, Co nn . with Morgan (Mona) Simone Daleo '79 .

Greetings. Bad news (and good news ...). The bad news first. News is extremely thin this month. The good news, however, is that despite the 16 percent increase in the price of a firstclass stamp, your investment in writing me a letter will be more worth it than

Why, you ask. I am once again offering my own personal Class of '84 "Bucks for News" program. For each letter I receive from a classmate in the next six months (which includes news for the Reporter), I will contribute $1.16 to theAJunmi Fund. That increase matches the postal increase, and pays out three times the cost of the additional investment for the stamp. I will also contribute I 0 cents for each piece of news about a classmate. So write! It'll be worth it! JEAN DURHAM continues to live and work in London. She's been there for the past three years and invites any-

one passing through to give her a call. She does European sales support for Internet Systems, Ltd. Many of you remember Jerry Corcoran from our first two years 'Neath the Elms. I ran into him on a plane a month or so ago. We had a great chat and even spoke to ERIC LINSLEY on the airplane phone. It was tough to hear, but it was indeed Eric. Both Jerry and Eric seemed tine. RANDI BORT-ROSENBLOOM wrote a nice note and sent along her great news. She completed her Ph.D. in endocrinology at the University of Connecticut in September of 1989. She and her husband, Richard, had a baby boy (Adam Philip - welcome!) last April. Congratulations on both big events! That really is all the news I have to report. Please call, write, or send a messenger pigeon. No anonymous or unsigned letters, please - I have to blame you for information you send! Take care. Come visit the Great City of the Midwest. Late-breaking news received in the alumni office: EDWARD BENKERT is enrolled in a two-year actor training program called The New Actors Workshop in New York City. TIM NASH spent the fall of '90 in Holland, will receive his M.BA. from Wharton in the spring of '91, and will be married in Vermont in June of '91 (see Engagements). SUZANNE CHERNAU PlLSK is a librarian and lives in the D.C. area with her husband, Eric, who is a lawyer, and their daughter. She says she sees NANCY EDSON "whenever she has time - she's very busy." She has talked with CARRlE DUBROW and notes that she's "very impressed with her job with LOTUS multi media in Boston."

I think I'm the first Class Secretary to earn a purple heart for ir\iury in the line of duty: I smashed my car in October while delivering my report to the alumni office. I know, I know, hand delivering the report puts mail carriers out of work, but I was in the neighborhood . I'm tine, but my car has a nasty little dent in the front fender, and the Jetta that cut in front of me has certainly seen better days. Oh well. Hope your new years are off to a great start, and the Ides of March and its attendant blahs aren't so bad. Hey, it's almost spring (1 say as I write this in January .. .). Let's see . .. JOHN BRUNO gets the prize for being the first '85 alum to visit my mailbox with news of his life. Actually, he was second, but the first correspondent was anonymous, so John gets the distinction. Actually, John's letter

was his first since we graduated, so double kudos. Anyway, he reports that he's been working at Aetna for the past five years with two stops each in California and New York, and he's now living in Simsbury, Conn. What a drag ... five moves in five years. I thought I was a nomad. His current position at Aetna is as an account analyst in the bond department. Despite his proclivity for Atlas moving vans, John has also been busy on the personal front: he got married to Artemis Joagaris in November 1989, he received his M.BA. from Pepperdine in August 1990, and he became a dad last September, making son, Philip Elias, almost six months old now.

My sources in the grapevine also tell me that CRAIG TATERONIS, my beloved freshman roommate, and his wife, KAY BURKE '86, are expecting their first child sometime soon, too. The Tateronises are now living in the Boston area, although details are incomplete. (Take a hint, Craig. Write me.) Speaking of Boston, the aforementioned ghost writer sent me lots of news from the erstwhile Massachusetts capitoL The letter was also postmarked from Boston, so 1 have my suspicions about who this phantom might be. But sleuthing is not in the job description so I'll just reprint the tidbits and see if someone claims authorship. Or you can play Clue with me and see if we can figure out who killed Colonel Mustard in the study with the lead pipe. "Caspar" writes that JEANNE DEVELIN married Lee Barbari on Sept. 8, and that "all her old roommates were there." (Clue #1, does anyone remember who Jeanne's old roommates are? Do any live in Boston?) We also know that LISA BROWN WENSBERG and her husband, ANDER '83, were there from New York, as were CAROUNE COCO, ANNETTE BOELHOUWER and SUE PASlEKA. Our mystery classmate tells us that Caroline just got a new job as a stockbroker with Alex Brown, Sue is in publishing with a computer magazine, and Annette is an attorney. ANDREW EMERY also came to the wedding from New York; Caspar says to watch out, Andrew sells insurance. I don't get it; maybe that's another hint. The letter continues: "SAM REID is now working in Waltham, Mass. with a group called '1,000 Friends of Massachusetts' (whatever that means), and SELDEN WELLS is working in Cambridge as an executive secretary and living in Watertown." The letter continues, "BROOKE SOUTHALL was rowing for the umpteenth time at the Head of the Charles in October, and he won an award last year at the Union Boat Club for rowing the most miles on the Charles River. RICK CLEARY is living in Boston and can be found most weekends at Yvonne's looking up old friends and making new ones." (Remember, I'm just reprinting this stuff, I have no idea what that means .. .) Finally, our very informed spy says that "FRED PARSON is in the family business selling gems on the first floor of the Ritz HoteL In case any of you need a ring ... give him one!" Cute. WeU, whoever you are, thanks for sharing all that news. lf anyone wants to wager a guess about who did all that gabbing, send it in.

Drawing off her Peace Corps expertise, KlM JOHNSTON is now the dep-

uty regional manager for Latin America for CARE in New York City. ANNlE PROCTOR is another alum with an international twist: she's in the Middle East Studies and International Ec(}nomics program at J ohns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. Say that 10 times with your mouth full. She spent the summer of '90 studying Arabic in Jordan and traveling in the Middle East, returning home 10 days after the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait (Yikes!). Annie was recently engaged to David O'Keeffe, an '86 Williams grad from Albany, N.Y. A June 1992 wedding is planned. Far from the Middle East, Class Prez TED COXE is in his second year of law school at the University of Maine where he was recently named one of four "Prize Arguers" in a moot court competition. Hmrn, I always thought Ted was the quiet type. MIYUKI KANEKO is another lawyer-in-the-making, wallowing through her first year at Rutgers. Miyuki sounds a little ambivalent about the joys of legal study, but says it's making her a bit more logical. Late breaking news as reported by the alumni office: MARGARET ROBB BARTLETT writes, "Hello to all. It's great to be back in Connecticut. Now living at a boys' prep school. Marriage is bliss." CAROLINE CARNEY is working for

McGraw-Hill and living in New York City. When she wrote, MARTHA ERSKINE had completed her master's in English literature at Rutgers and was looking for a teaching job. Having finished up her traveling with the Men's Tennis Council, CAMILLE GUTHRlE writes that she is doing freelance work for the Grand Slam tournaments and sports production work for USA Network cable television. STEVEN MUSICANT was married last October and has been transferred to General Reinsurance's Chicago branch office. His wife, Susan, and he were excited about the move, but will miss Connecticut, he says. That's the latest, direct from Trinity. And, aside from revealing that I had a nan(}-second message on my answering machine from KATHI O'CONNOR BOEUfOUWER that said, "Hi, love 'ya," that's all I have for this quarter. As always, call, write, or Western Union me . . . I'll attempt to make random gossip calls from time to time to see what's new out there, so if you hear me on the phone or your machine, relax. At the beep, I won't be asking for money, just info. I'll leave you with the Wise words of Vanilla lee: "Word to your mother." Pretty hip, huh? Class Agents: Andrew C. Carlson Roberta Glaser

JOSEPH GOGAS lives in Philadelphia now. He began work last fall on his master's degree in city planning and real estate development at the University of Pennsylvania.

He has since joined the law office of Pacifico M. DeCapua, a general practice Jaw firm in Milford, Mass. Class of 1987 news just received by the alumni office: JEFFREY DURMER's first year of medical school is now over. He has been rowing with the Penn Med crew that has recently been started.

Class Agents Bruce, ISO BEL CALVIN BONAR, JOHN LEE and LIZZIE HARDMAN are proud to inform the Class of '88 of their special recognition at Trinity's October Alumni Leadership Conference. They won the award for the highest percentage of participation by a class with more than 300 alums. The previous fiscal year they co-won the Class of 1916 trophy, which is presented to the class that has graduated within the past lO years and has achieved the highest rating in the Alumni Fund. They suggest that perhaps a special alumni lemon squeezer should be awarded to them since the classes of '87 and '89 conspired as undergraduates to keep the award from them, the class with "clearly the most school spirit and loyalty."

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Well, at least that would have been proper when I wrote this report. I hope you all are having a wonderful start this new year and remember those New Year's resolutions we promised not to break this year. I am half way through my law school. I finished with my head above the waters as usual. I am doing well for all those who wish to know about their gossip mongering secretary. Well this is my report, so bear with me. Still living with me and still the "Master of the Universe" wanna-be is JASON MANSKE. He is doing well at J .P. Morgan and wishes you all a warm hello. For the few '89ers who wrote to me or to the alumni office, this is your story. JUDY SANDFORD is riding high as she moved to the upper West Side of Manhattan after being promoted to art associate at Travel Holiday magazine. MARY SABATINI continues to work full-time as a Spanish teacher at South Windsor High School. She won the King Juan Fellowship and will be studying in Madrid for the summer of 1991. Congratulations, Mary! LISA SHAPIRO is working in real estate at Banker's Trust.

VICTORIA CLAWSON, who studied in Nepal after graduation, returned to the States to establish the Himalayan Trading Company which imports Nepalese handicrafts. She decided to put her Trinity economics to good use over her humanitarian third world studies. A true Trinite at its highest form. Go, go capitalism.

He is doing well in Japan where he is studying toward his M.BA so he can add it to his Ph.D. degree in love. He reports that he studies for more than 15 hours per day and has no time to pursue his old hobbies of his Ph.D. MARK-ZWEIFEL is bored with his work in the architectural finn in Maryland and wishes to pursue the finer things in life. He wishes to pursue the ever~ lusive juris doctorate and plans on taking the LSATs soon. He decided to do something meaningful with his life rather than draw lines. There are rumors that VINCENT DI-

NOSO was seen on the campus of the University of Chicago, pursuing his advanced degree in classics. lf anyone is down there, please verify that rumor. As to those that did not write to me, here are the reports on their status. During Homecoming, I was invited to the humble 'stead of TODD GILLESPIE and CHRIS DICKINSON for a lovely bash. There I found STACEY ORESDALE, JON COX, MAlA SHARPLEY, GINA ZARRA, LINDA VOZZELLA, ROGER WELLINGTON, DONNA HAGffiGHAT, ROBERT CUMMINGS, CIORSDAN CONRAN, CHRISSY CERVONI, TOH TSUN LIM and a few unmentionables. They were in high festive mood, and watching "When Harry Met Sally." Others were ef\ioying pleasant games of cards. Also at Homecoming, I visited the Sigma Nu tailgate. Looking in high spirits were DAVID VALZANIA and DICK MAHAFFEY. Not so high in spirits, but drinking, was MIKE MILLER who was transferred out to Providence for CNB. Dude, save the banking industry in Connecticut; CBT is gone. Also drinking and in a festive mood were GLENN KURTZ, JONAH COHEN and RODNEY MOORE. Hey guys, MATT MAGINNISS is finally engaged to DEBBIE GLEW '90. Good luck, Matt, and here is some legal advice - "Keep separate accounts."

Hopefully, by the time you all read this entry, the war will be long over and the name Saddam Hussein forgotten, if

not away from the tips of everyone's tongues. Right now we are two weeks into the war and the nation is in the midst of a very large crisis. Yet the government tells us we must go on with our lives. Live them normally, Bush says, a difficult task for us when everything around seems to be a mess. This leads me to my own obligations - I must come up with another entry for the spring issue of the Reporter. Not an equitable comparison, I assure you, but a problem, or small crisis in itself, for me. My job at CAS keeps me busy working long hours, even on those weekends that most people can usually count on for some free time. Well not me! Life as I once knew it as a carefree college student is over. Well, life here in Boston is as exciting as ever. LJSA TOMLINSON and I are fixing up our apartment, scrubbing it and painting it to make it really look like a home. We are busy dealing with typical problems like a clogged tub, broken furnace, and high gas bills (or are they just typical to us?). These minor setbacks have not deterred us, though. Aside from a few visits from Roto Rooter (sewer service ...) and every repair man in the Boston area, life has been relatively normal. Willy and I rang in the New Year at Faneuil Hall with some friends. It was quite the scene, and I am sure that many of you were there. Of course, I wouldn't have been able to find any of you among the drunken crowds. We found a nice little dive - oops, I mean line restaurant - and sat there all night making noise and singing songs.

We recently celebrated the holidays in Belmont with MEG WATTERS, her housemates, and many other Class of '90ers. The latest gossip circulating about the party was that LJNDA DIPAOLO has been engaged to Mike Jones since December. (Many of us may remember Mike from his visits to Trinity.) Linda is ef\ioying her job as a technical support consultant at Easel Corporation and Mike is a junior accountant at Wolf & Co. P.C. Congratulations, guys! LYNN FRASCIONE, currently a caseworker at Big Brothers/Big Sisters, came up from Hartford with NEIL WALSH, KffiSTEN BRAATZ and ED TROIANO. Neil was psyched to pick up his new car while in the Boston area. His job at The Travelers keeps him busy, but pays well, he says. Kir and Ed were excitedly talking about their wedding, which is scheduled for next year, in the Chapel, no less. Neil and I were discussing the fact that we are starting to feel a bit intimidated (as well as a bit old) by the fact that some of our friends are getting married already. Well I suppose it has to happen to us sometime ... AMY KELLY came down from New York to see all of her friends in Boston. She lives with SARA MOORIN in Manhattan and loves her job in Bloomingdales. KAREN VAUGHN also came up from Connecticut and told me the fun she is having, kicking her heels and singing her heart away in a chorus line in New Haven. KRISTIN CUMMINGS flew back from a very well-deserved vacation in Florida to be at the bash.

Environmental Entrepreneurs Run Human-i-Tees

Two young Trinity graduates, who are copresidents of the Human- i-Tees company based in Chappaqua, N .Y ., display their wares. From the left: Tim Boylan ' 90 and Steve Kemler '90.

lending entrepreneurial spirit with social awareness, Steve Kemler '90 and Tim Boylan '90 founded their own environmental T-shirt company- Human-i-Tees. The fledgling company's usual customers are student groups raising money for environmental causes. So far, Human-i-Tees has helped more than 100 organizations raise over $15,000. The company donates a portion of its profits to environmental organizations. Preservation of the planet is the main theme of all the T -shirt illustrations designed by the third Human-i-Tees partner, David High bloom. The designs are hand silk-screened onto cotton shirts using envirom11entally- sound printing methods. " In addition to holding fund-raisers with colleges and high schools, we attend numerous envirom11ental conferences and I run workshops on 'how to run an environmental group,"' explained Kemler. " A big part of what we're doing is establishi ng a high school environmental network. One of our most important focuses is to get young stude nts involved early." An economics major, Kemler became e)'..tremely active in campus recycling, initially through the Progressive Student Alliance. "That was a turning point; until then, I wasn't that involved in environmental issues," he said. While they were seniors, Kemler and Boylan, a political science major, began purchasing shirts to re-sell at New England colleges and universities. Within a year after graduating, they'd advanced to being co-presidents of their own Chappaqua, N .Y.-based company. Human-i-Tees has one full-time employee and four to five part-time workers. Employees have included other recent Trinity graduates who worked for awhile until finding permanent jobs. As a member of the Student Enviromnental Action Coalition, Kemler met in April with aides to U.S. senators to urge that the national energy policy focus more on conservati on. He also is writing a chapter of a book on ways that students can "help save the planet."
