Now stockbroking in Rutland, Vt. after
several years of banking in New York is
Robert L. Hill, who has escaped the metropolis
to 5 Hillcrest Rd. in Rutland. He writes:
"A more flexible schedule allows me more
time to pursue other interests. Main one
now is as builder-dealer of a line of log
vacation-ski lodges, a result of my belief that
there is a demand for the traditional design
in this field."
'54 MA, PhD '62 - Husain Haddawy will
join the English dept. of Chatham College
as an associate professor for the 1966-1967
academic year. He is now a member of the
English faculty at the U of Rochester.

Dateline of this column is Birmingham,
Ala., where the azaleas and gubernatorial
candidates are in full bloom. I'm here in the
southland to produce ABC's primary night
coverage: a fitting assignment for a woman
to cover the probable election of the first
woman candidate for governor.
Along with the luggage and reams of research
material on southern Democrats, I
carried to Alabama an even more interesting
document: the '55 Women's Reunion Scrapbook
with notes and items from many of our
classmates. These I now pass along to you.
Henry and Irene (Adler) Hirsch and their
two sons have moved from White Plains to
41 Highview Rd. in SufTern.
Martha (Benning) Cockram also has a new
address, RD 4, Canandaigua. Bob '59 is the
manager of the Taylor Farms, while Martha
divides housekeeping chores and care of their
two young sons with activities in the 4-H
club.
Susan (Bergmann) Prausnitz is now living
at 52 Crescent in Berkeley, Calif, where
John '49 is professor of chemical engineering
at the U of Cal. They have a 3-yearold
daughter, Stephanie, who was born during
their sabbatical leave in Switzerland.
Dwight '53 and Peg (Blackburn) Robinson
write from 14 Heckle St., Wellesley Hills,
Mass. Dwight is in research at Mass General.
They have two girls and a boy, and from the
picture Peg enclosed you can see that their
10-year-old daughter Laurie is the beautiful
image of her blond mother.
Another Cornellian living abroad (so
many of our classmates make their homes in
exotic places) is Norma Bosworth, now Mrs.
Lewis G. Carpenter. She lives in Kenitra,
Morocco, where her husband is completing
a 30-month tour of duty with the US
Navy. Norma welcomes visitors until November
but advises them to brush up on
their French, Spanish, and Arabic first. The
Carpenters can be reached through their
military box number: RMC 372-95-19 USN
US Nav Comm Sta Box 40 c/o FPO, New
York.
Nancy Budlong (Mrs. Norman Lent, wife
of the N.Y. senator) included a picture of
herself and three children, two boys and a
girl. I am happy to report she doesn't look a
day older than she did in June 1955. The
Lents live at 48 Plymouth Rd., East Rockaway.
Robert '51 and Sandra (Chachkes) Temkin
make their home at 92 Oakdale Dr.,
Rochester.
Judith Gail Cohen, now Mrs. Lawrence
C. Lichtig, wrote a brief note to our alumni
chairman explaining her absence at the Terrific
Tenth: ". . . pregnant and won't be able
to travel." By my calculations she's now a
mother and congratulations are in order.
The Litchtigs live at 2435 Elmdale Rd., University
Heights, Ohio.
Other long-lost addresses are:
Mary Lu DePuy (wife of Richard Whitlock
'53) 596 Canterbury Rd., Bay Village,
Ohio.
Barbara Freer (Mrs. Frank D. Popp) 76
Colney Lane, Cringleford, Norwich, Norfolk,
England.
Francine Goldberger (Mrs. Kenneth Rubenstein)
2400 E. 3rd St., Brooklyn. Two
children, a boy, 3, and a girl, 1.
Sheila Hearn Kahn, 3874 Stanford Way,
Livermore, Calif. Two girls, 3 and 1 Vi.
I'll continue next month from the primary
in California.
'55 MS - Michael H. B. Hayes of Dept. of
Chemistry, U of Birmingham, England,
writes, "Life has not changed much. Still a
bachelor. My greatest extracurricular joy is
still coaching (in an honorary capacity) a
truly fine U of Birmingham track team. Our
finest hour in 1966 will be to compete
against the Cornell-Penn team at Birmingham
on June 25. We look forward to seeing
Bob Kane '34, Lou Montgomery, Glenn
Davis, and their boys."
