children are Thaddeus and Melissa. While<br />

Ted was stationed in Germany, Jiffy took<br />

special student German studies at Berlin<br />

Free U, and after returning to the States,<br />

was enrolled at Columbia U as a special student<br />

in the Dept. of English.<br />

Men: Howard B. Myers<br />

Charles I. Beck, 731 E. 10th St., Davis,<br />

Calif., is a PhD candidate in the Department<br />

of Food, Science & Technology, agricultural<br />

chemistry, at the U of California's Davis<br />

campus. Charlie was married in September<br />

1964 and has a child, Earl, 1. When he<br />

graduates in February 1967, Charlie will<br />

work for General Mills, research, Minneapolis.<br />

I assume the February 1967 date<br />

means that his thesis will be finished and<br />

signed by that date. Charlie's wife, by the<br />

way, is the former Lorna Intorf (U of California).<br />

Daniel Fitzpatrick, 1419 Henry St., Ann<br />

Arbor, Mich., is the assistant director of organizations<br />

at the U of Michigan. Dan and<br />

wife Janise moved to Ann Arbor this past<br />

summer when Dan assumed his new duties.<br />

She is also employed by the university as a<br />

placement analyst in the bureau of appointments.<br />

Robert P. (Chip) Liversidge Jr., 418 Iven<br />

Ave., St. Davis, Pa., is in personnel with<br />

Smith, Klein & French Laboratories, Philadelphia,<br />

Pa. Little "Chips" in the Liversidge<br />

household include Robert III (known as<br />

Robίe), 3, and Anne Gray, born Aug. 31,<br />

1966. (Apparently when Anne is burped,<br />

her mother has a little "Chip on her shoulder.")<br />

Paul C. Markus, 3957 Gouverneur Ave.,<br />

New York, is still the western regional sales<br />

manager for Idle Wild Farms. Paul covers<br />

the US selling gourmet products including<br />

poultry, fish, and meat for clubs, airlines,<br />

and restaurants. Paul writes that he is still<br />

single but is no longer running away from<br />

all those females. (Have they stopped chasing,<br />

Paul, or are you now running after<br />

them?)<br />

Robert F. Case, DVM, RD 2, Voorheesville,<br />

has a small animal practice in that<br />

town.<br />

I read in a recent edition of the New<br />

York Times that a lucky lady lawyer had<br />

finally corralled Burt Ahrens and married<br />

him. I neglected to clip the item so I have<br />

forgotten her name, the Ahrens's new residence,<br />

and all relevant data relating to the<br />

affair. If Burt is still reading this column and<br />

will send me an announcement I will be<br />

most happy to provide all of the above.<br />

Kenny and Judy Riskind sent their usual<br />

Christmas greetings. Kenny has opened a<br />

photography studio in the basement of his<br />

new home and is specializing in baby pictures.<br />

The cover of his Christmas card is,<br />

no doubt, his best work to date.<br />

Well, I got caught again, this time by the<br />

Christmas holidays, which is why no column<br />

was in evidence last month. To read in January<br />

what I wrote in October is somewhat<br />

of a shock, but you can realize from that<br />

why it takes some time after news items<br />

are sent for them to be printed.<br />

A Christmas poem from Gwen Woodson<br />

Reese (Mrs. John B.) included a picture of<br />

their house at 3511 S. Milam St. in Ama-<br />

rillo, Tex., with snow on it! Gwen mentioned<br />

Gail Stanton Willis's son, G.P. Willis<br />

IV, born in August, weighing in at a<br />

hefty 91/2 lbs.<br />

Several other new babies are among the<br />

items this month. Barbara Hirsch Kaplan<br />

(Mrs. Leslie) has a son, Douglas, born Nov.<br />

24. 340 S. 12th St., Philadelphia, Pa. is the<br />

Kaplans' address. Another Douglas belongs<br />

to the family of Alice Getz Portnoy who<br />

lives in Commack at 37 Florida Ave. Alice's<br />

other children are Roger and Suzanne. Like<br />

others of us, Alice is working toward a<br />

master's degree in her "spare" time. Carol<br />

Horowitz Schulhof reports the birth of her<br />

daughter Julia on May 12, 1966. The proud<br />

father is Peter. The family lives at 160 Columbia<br />

Heights, Brooklyn. Peggy (Flynn)<br />

and Dave Dunlop have announced the adoption<br />

of their second daughter last Christmas.<br />

She has been named Allison Lee. The Dunlops'<br />

address is 480 Brooktondale Rd.,<br />

Brooktondale.<br />

Here are some new addresses: Roy, Gail<br />

(Brazilian), and Laura Bailey now live in<br />

Los Angeles at 945 S. Highland Ave. In<br />

L.A.'s suburbs, the Donald '58 Marshalls<br />

have a new address. Don's harem, Dale<br />

(Rogers) and daughters Jessica and Cynthia,<br />

now live at 522 Pacific Ave., Manhattan<br />

Beach. Dorothy Isaacs Winick, husband<br />

Paul, and son Charles Barry, 2, now live at<br />

125 Yorkshire Dr., Biloxi, Miss., where Paul<br />

is in the Air Force as a pediatrician at Keesler<br />

AFB Hospital.<br />

Judith Hutchins, who graduated from the<br />

School of Nursing, is now involved in aerospace<br />

medicine. She has been in a course<br />

which included study of nursing in relation<br />

to the care of patients in a "hostile" environment,<br />

including outer space. Part of this<br />

training involved undergoing some of the<br />

tests given aspiring astronauts: rides in altitude<br />

chambers, test in the human centrifuge,<br />

and the like. Dizzying!<br />

In addition to work on my master's in library<br />

science, I now have a part-time job as<br />

assistant manager of library liaison and staff<br />

services of the U of Pittsburgh Libraries.<br />

Translated, this means personnel and public<br />

relations for the libraries. One of the people<br />

on the staff, as Pitt readies its library for a<br />

move into a new building, is Harold Schell,<br />

who was at <strong>Cornell</strong> after we graduated and<br />

who organized the move into Olin Library.<br />

First I want to thank so many of you for<br />

remembering me at Christmas with your<br />

cards and letters. Your thoughtfulness makes<br />

writing this and the next column so much<br />

easier for me and more interesting for everyone.<br />

Carol Waters's note from Uppsala, Sweden<br />

is most fascinating. "After two years in<br />

San Francisco working at a brewery (the<br />

lab work included taste-testing the product)<br />

and attending night school for education<br />

classes, I worked in New York at the Rockefeller<br />

Institute for XVi years. That led to a<br />

job offer here in Uppsala, where I've been<br />

for almost three years now. Uppsala is<br />

Sweden's oldest university and it's about the<br />

same size as <strong>Cornell</strong>, while the town itself<br />

at 90,000 is Sweden's fifth largest. I will not<br />

go out on a limb and say that Swedish is<br />

the world's easiest language in which to become<br />

fluent, but once you get to know it,<br />

life in Sweden is really much like the States.<br />

In fact, newspapers go on campaigns every<br />

so often to try to convince people that everything<br />

American isn't worth imitating. They<br />

are rapidly installing the American style in<br />

education at all levels, patterned primarily<br />

after California. My work here is in protein<br />

chemistry and immunochemistry and is fascinating,<br />

and working conditions are great,<br />

which compensates for the low Swedish<br />

salaries and non-ideal living conditions. The<br />

latter make it impossible for me to offer<br />

housing to any passing <strong>Cornell</strong>ians but I'd<br />

love to see them at Lindsbergsgatan 15A."<br />

Val Jones Johnson (our first class correspondent)<br />

is busy putting her journalism<br />

training to full use as the women's features<br />

writer and society reporter for the Portland<br />

Sunday Telegram. Dr. Dave started his general<br />

practice in medicine last August. They<br />

are living in a new apartment at 18 Dartmouth<br />

St., Portland. They both "really like<br />

Maine and are looking forward to our second<br />

winter of skiing."<br />

Mary Jo Sliney's father-in-law, Charles H.<br />

Schaaff '27 wrote that Tom and Mary Jo<br />

are living at 140 Draeger Dr., Moraga, Calif,<br />

with their son and daughter. Mary Jo formerly<br />

taught in El Paso and expects to continue<br />

in California. Tom received his MBA<br />

from Stanford in '62. He then went to<br />

work at Kodak's business affairs division as<br />

a representative in El Paso until he received<br />
