Springfield, Mass., exchanged vows last April 22. The Provosts now make their home in Attleboro. 
 
Bill Rothstein began work this September for his Ph.D. in labor and management relations on a fellowship at the Cornell University Graduate School of Industrial Management. Bill received his master's degree from the University of Minnesota last June. . . . Congratulations are also due to Stephen Talley, who received his master of electrical engineering degree from the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn, and Ron Stone, who was granted a master of science scroll from the University of Vermont last June.
  
John Bergeron, Buddy Long, John Bracket, Federico Dumas, and Jerome Schooler were seen carrying the '59 banner at Alumni Day in Cambridge on June 12.--Robert A. Muh, Secretary, 1200 Commonwealth Avenue, Brookline, Mass.; John J. McElroy, Assistant Secretary, 190 Mineola Blvd., Mineola, N.Y.

'61
  
Much has transpired since our parting five months ago. On campus, immediately after graduation, came Alumni Day, June 12. Both Martin Anderson and your secretary were there to represent the Class. Summer found 1961 scattered to all parts of the country and the world. Business, the military, travel in Europe, more school--each category claimed substantial numbers according to the information cards given out in May. . . 
July saw the appointment of two Alumni Fund Class Agents for '61. They are Ken Kotovsky and Grady Harris. Expect a letter from them sometime this fall with information on a variety of topics.... Two hundred eighty-five people reported via the return postal cards, and 75 people reported that they were staying on for graduate work at M.I.T. The place can't be all that bad, after all.
  
Thirty-three of our number that we know of have been married since Commencement. Here are the names and details where known: Haim Alcalay, Bruce Bardes  (June 11), Hamid Bawany (September), Charles Bonesteel (to Miss Anne Greer, on June 3), Harold Bowers (to Miss Marie Quinn, on June 10), Pete Büttner (to Miss Marianne Babize, on July 1), Milton Clauser (to Miss Patricia Smith, on June 17), Count Curtis (June), Donald Easson, John M. Ellis  (to Miss Jackie Betz, in July), Mike Feder (to Miss June Scotch, June 21), Lloyd Fisher (to Miss Virginia Wollinger, on June 17), Reed Freeman (to Miss Nancy Bruce, on June 17), Tom Geers (September), Ed Grabowski (June 24), Bill Hecht (to Miss Olive Burke, June 24), B. Holland (July 1), Frank Incropera (September 2), W.T. Jackson, Ira Jaffe (to Miss Brenda Borock, August 26), William Julian (June 24), James Keller (to Miss Marjorie Coon, on August 12), Karlene Klages (June 7), Fulton Oakes, Jr. (June 17), Don Marquis (June 25), Gerald Rosen, Harry Rosenzweig  (to Miss Susan Shanken, on August 26), Dewey Ryu (September), Arthur Silverman (June 18), William Stevens (August 19), Stephen Weiner, Robert Weirich (September), and G. Edwin Wilson, Jr.
  
Al Brennecke, a member of our Executive Committee, who spent the summer working for Procter and Gamble in Cincinnati, got himself a scholarship for a year's study at the Technische Hochschule Darmstadt in Germany. He's doping a year of graduate work there in mechanical engineering, then comes back to the States for work on his M.S.... Other members of our class who have distinguished themselves over the summer by acquiring scholarships are David Sachs ($2400 National Defense Fellowship for advanced study and research in physics at Tufts) and Bob Fisher (who got an award under the Fulbright Act, to study product design at the University of Oslo, Norway).... Your erstwhile (?) secretary spent most of the summer studying German with an American group in Vienna, also found time to do some traveling with Sandy Wagner, Eric Arens, David Ness, and Peter Burlseon. Ness, our Rhodes Scholar, starts his studies at Oxford in October.
  
The response to the question on our information card, "Any other comments? Getting married? Engaged?" drew some amusing replies: "I'm already married," was one (wounded dignity). "Not in the foreseeable future," confidently stated a Course VIII man. A onetime Voo-Doo editor, still in character, announced, "I am going to be a head-hunter in Borneo." Why not Pago-Pago, Bob? Said Ken Singer, tersely, "Single--spending summer in East Africa." Any connection?--Joseph Harrington, 3d, Secretary, M.I.T. Graduate House, Room 212-A, 305 Memorial Drive, Cambridge 39, Mass.
