Eric Barradale
Election for the position of Dartmouth College Alumni Council post-55th reunion representative. Today from seven nominees entered for this position, I’m most proud to announce that the presidents from these classes joined me in choosing our own Eric Barradale to hold this position for the next three years. I’m sure all of you join me in congratulating Eric in his being chosen to hold this important post.
Class 1944 Quarterly Luncheon Report February 16, 2010 from Betty Musser
Hello Penn, I am writing you a review of today's 1944 luncheon at the request of Joan/Eric Barradale. They cancelled as the snow was coming down real hard in their area and traveling was iffy. So here goes....
The second 1944 luncheon group since the 65th Reunion, met at the Norwich Inn on Tuesday, February 16th. Attending were : Alice and Jim Hardigg; Esther and Burt Bickford; Libby and Clint Gardner; Mary and Harry Morse; Helena Burdge; Betty Musser; and Joey Tate dropped in for a brief visit. Classmates sending their best to all - Betty Munson/Stan Barr; Bill McElnea; Bob McLaughry; and Barradales.Discussions covered many topics - Betty Musser extended the "best wishes" from the people who couldn't attend. Burt Bickford gave a good and very favorable financial report for the 65th and the class finances; Westminster Dog Show and Olympic"s were major subjects. Clint Gardner told us he is going to be a co-author of a new book about memoirs of servicemen from World War II that live at Kendal Assisted Living in Hanover. He also mentioned about the tapes that were done on several 1944's that were interviewed and they are at Rauner Library. He found his and listened to it. Lunch was enjoyed and time went bye talking about other various topics. When we went to leave, it was snowing and has continued ever since. Next luncheon is planned for Tuesday May 18th, 2010 at the Norwich Inn - anyone who may be in the area, we would love to have you attend. Just contact Ellie Stephenson (802) 649-5188 or e.b.stephenson@valley.net
I hope I got everything in correctly - any questions just e-mail Joan/Eric or Penn!! Best, Betty Musser

IN COMMUNITY SERVICE
The following letter was received from Allan Monroe

Dear
Penn:
December 8, 2009
We
are thankful to have the great class of 1944 as one of our newest classes to
join in supporting DPCS. The class gift of $2,000. 00 is being well
invested in our DPCS interns and their community work across the country.
While
the financial environment challenged charitable giving across the country (and still does) we believe and hope that
the stability of our support for DPSC is based on the supporters understanding
of how important it is to have our students contributing to and learning from
the people they meet in the communities they serve. One intern said to me that every time she thinks she has it hard
she thinks of the people she met during her internship and their determination.
So,
please pass along DPCS’s gratitude and that of its interns to your classmates.
Best
Regards,
Allan
