Niebaum (Case Western Reserve '69) Secretary \r\nTHE PRESIDENT' PAGE If one of the perogatives of age is reminiscence, let me begin'. The happy results of my 39 years affiliation in Phil Gamma Delta are friendships in all age groups especially in Cleveland and many fine inemories. Here are some random listings of Fiji's in this area - or those who could be here for a special occasion. Many we haven't seen for years - some you would particularly like to see - and 1 would like to see them all , especially at the Cleveland Pig Dinner May 3rd. My recollections are subject to at least two risks. One, of unintentionally omitting someone, and the other, in not listing the many loyal and faithful Brothers who attend almost every Graduate Chapter function. 1 see them often and enjoy it - but let me list many others we've missed - some for a long time. 1 know Ed Halter will be with us May 3rd and 1 hope the other Fiji members of his law firm will join him - Jack Naylor, Charlie Pennington Rush McKnight. That perennial pair Ed Smith and Jim Johnston. Where have they been? Others we haven't seen in many months - all attorneys Joe Thiel, John Calandra, A1 Morhard (the football dynamo at CWRU in '49-'50-'51) and Dick Reminger - Woody Johnston - Bob Stepp. Many of our MD'S and DDS'S haven't been with us lately - Ned Season, Bill Forsythe (and Bill, Jr.) Art Watkins, Ted Castele, Art Young, George Sackett, Russ Weisman, Jr., Carl Berger, John Osmond, Jr. and Don Brannan. Hope to see Cen. Paul Johnson and his Allegheny contemporary John Barkley on May 3rd and both Qua brothers, Steve and George - and where have Dave Howe and Phil Nixon been? And Jack Walsh, the bearded ad executive'. And from Wittenberg, Lloyd Taylor, Ed Lamb, Dick Schoon and (from the Chagrin Valley Fiji Poker group) Jim Reinhardtl Also Charlie Briggs (Missouir), Chuck Rimer, Ed Patton, Henry Evans and Don Weibel, DVM, all from the Chagrin area - also Roger Weinheimer (former Section Chief) . Some "double" brothers - Don and Mai Campbell DDS, and Ed and Bob Norwich - have seen all recently except Mai, who has been quite ill. Also Harry L. Martien and brother, Leonard. Many of you have strong loyalties to your own Chapters - like Hank Harrington and Bob Freeman for Ohio Wesleyan - and this is just fine, but when you're here, join our Cleveland Pig Dinner group tool 1 know Jerry Comella and Mo Novello are in Cleveland but where is Max Kelso (CWRU '24) and Bob Wickes. Sure would like to see them all. Our Denison brothers haven't been around lately - Duffy Davies, Jim Munn, Walter Kull, Sr. and Joe Carabelli (a '37 comtemporary). How about having a delegation from Akron - led by past Archon President Henry S. Brainard (who will be present), Klare Cibbs, William Curie Mclntosh and from Kent, Bob Dix? \r\n-2IT From Tiffin - Henry Abbott MD. , and attorney Sam McKinney and Judge Ray Buzzard and Bob Hartford usually come up fron East Liverpool. There is a time during marriage, starting a family and establishing a career when we "lose" our graduates. All of you mentioned here have been "lost" long enough - come backl Missed for some years too, Bill Carter (Purdue) and Bill Cowden (Ohio Wesleyan), Harry Beder (Yale), the Tract's , Phil and Dick and Dick Tyner, CPAl Sure hope to see Clyde Foster and son Cole, Charlie Brunner (who never missed a thing'. ) and Ed Stern and Carl Simmelink and some of the others I helped pledge many years agoL Frank Sinkler, new President of Astrup Co. If classmate Cliff Ayres is here from New Jersey I hope he'll complete the "package" with Ben Schwegler and Chuck Turnbaugh. Other "double" brothers we've missed - Ken Daley and brother Bill, the Lathe's, John (former Field Secretary) and brother Adrian. Ben Hauserman and at least one of his brothers I How about all the Fiji principals at McDonald and Co. - Joe Thomas (Denison), Keith Russell and Dick Mapes (Ohio Wesleyan) and Bill Baker (Ohio State) who rated several lines recently in "Business Week". Then there are Thornton Round, Ted Hensge, Jim Wilkinson, Gene Hill and the Sessions Brothers and the Peckinpaugh Clan (who may now have more Fiji members than the Hausermans). All these and many more I've known and missed. With this issue of the "Hunch" is an extra Pig Dinner reservation form. I know many of you would attend our dinner if you could - and would get a classmate to join you. Call him or send him this information and return his reservation for May 3rd with yours. You'll be glad you did and we will all enjoy getting together again. An evening of fun - not controversy! See you May 3rd. Fraternally, a' \ Harry L.
