RICHARD MALONE BARBER: Lawyer. Home Address, 2234 Jefferson Ave., Memphis, Tenn. Office Address, 205 Sterick Bldg., Memphis, Tenn. Married, Harriette Beckham, Aug. 25, 1934, Mem- phis, Tenn.
I am still hammering away at the same old legal problems, with some interesting excursions into farming and real estate. As a result of rather extensive outdoor activities, I am now in better physical condition than at any time since army service in World War II.
GEORGE ELY BARKER: Finance. Home Address, 1657 Cam- bridge St., Apt. 10, Cambridge 38, Mass. Office Address, First National Bank of Boston, 67 Milk St., Boston, Mass. Married, Ann Stewart, April 16, 1927, Framingham, Mass.
No changes in business and home life in recent years. A greying of the hair and a slowing of one's steps, to be sure. Otherwise, the Barkers are well and await the years of retirement at Stephentown, New York.
LAURENCE JUSTIN BARNES died July 13, 1957, at East Sebago, Maine.
ISAAC MARGOLIS BARNETT: Lawyer. Home Address, 304 Roselle Ave., Cedarhurst, Long Island, N.Y. Office Address, 60 E. 42d St., New York 17, N.Y. Married, Evelyn Safran, May 5, 1931, New York, N.Y. Children, Joan, April 19, 1933 (died Aug. 7, 1934); Barbara, March 13, 1935 (m. John Faxon Wing); Patricia, May 19, 1938. Grandchild, Audrey Susan Wing, Feb. 4, 1938.
Since the last Report I have continued to engage, as a partner in the firm of Silver, Saperstein & Barnett, in the general practice of law in New York City. I have also continued my interest in the United Cerebral Palsy Association, being chairman of the legisla- tive committee of the national organization and counsel to the Nassau County affiliate.
The ordinary tenor was decidedly alleviated this last summer when my wife, daughter Pat and I visited our daughter Barbara, our son-in-law John, and our delightful granddaughter Audrey in Antwerp, on two separate occasions during the course of our sight- seeing excursion through Europe. Since John's job will keep him and his family in Belgium for at least a year, these visits were an absolute necessity for the grandparents' morale.

Since June, 1957, I have been editor of Media/scope Magazine, published by Standard Rate & Data Service, Inc. This is a magazine devoted to the buying of advertising space and time. I launched
14
Harvard Class of 1925
the magazine on a commercial basis, and we have made good progress.
Between 1955 and 1957 I was project director and public rela- tions director at Alfred Politz Research, Inc., New York. Previously, I had been editor of Advertising Agency Magazine. I have been lecturing in advertising at the Graduate School of Business, Colum- bia University, since 1947.

I finished twenty-one years in the active U.S. Army Reserve in June, 1959, and have been transferred to the retired reserve. My whole service has been in military intelligence and psychological warfare.
In the past five years, I have been to most of the areas of the United States and to several in Canada. These trips have been devoted partly to bird watching and partly to giving talks before advertising clubs. Target areas for bird finding in 1960 are Iceland and Ireland.

EDWARD HOLLAND BATES: Building Contractor. Home Ad- dress, 846 Lilac Drive, Santa Barbara, Calif. Office Address, 17 E. Carrillo St., Santa Barbara, Calif. Married, Julia Bygrave, Aug. 31, 1936, Concord, Mass. Children, Channing, Feb. 15, 1943; Cynthia, July 6, 1945.
I am still in the building business in Santa Barbara. It offers plenty of competition, and a real challenge if you make your living by it, as I do. Since my last report, I have built myself a house on the edge of town. Landscaping and watering shrubs would probably best describe my diversion at the moment.
In June, 1960, I'll be in Andover at my son's graduation, and definitely expect to be present at our Thirty-fifth Anniversary Re- union.

35th Anniversary Report
Six months after our Thirtieth Reunion I bought a Charles Addams-type rooming house - when I want to gild the lily, I call it a guest house - in Brookline. As a result of my experience in this business, I have developed a strong antipathy toward the American public and can hardly wait until the hydrogen bomb proves to be a boon to mankind by exterminating the aforesaid public.
There is nothing much else to report except that I am still a bachelor and still play jazz piano. My second hobby is philanthropic. I collect pliofilm garment bags and give them to children to play with.

In January, 1958, I left the government and entered into the practice of law in Washington, D.C. I am maintaining my interest in international developments in the field of atomic energy. I have written three articles dealing with various aspects of the Inter- national Atomic Energy Agency and am a consultant to the Inter- national Division of the Atomic Energy Commission. I have under- taken a project sponsored by the Brookings Institution to produce a study of the disarmament negotiations after World War II and their relation to our foreign policy.

35th Anniversary Report
After six years in Paris starting just after the Reunion of 1950, I came home to make Americans of my teen-age children. We learned a lot about a lot of people during our development of engi- neering in Paris, Athens, Tehran, Italy, and Ethiopia. We do com- mercial airports, military installations, roads and bridges, schools in Iran, docks and barge service across Rezayieh Lake in northwest Iran, and thirty airfields in Ethiopia where the people are so separated by lack of roads that they are completely different in looks, customs, and language as little as half an hour away by plane. Only the plane keeps them linked to the King who is indeed “King of Kings."
Now I am responsible for all our foreign works - some four hundred strong - with base in New York but making several coordination trips each year. This leaves less time than I should like for sailing but is very rewarding in contact with people in many lands. I have found them friendly everywhere.
BERNARD BETTMAN: Professor of Chemistry. Home Address, Park Avenue, Woolrich, Pa. Office Address, State Teachers College, Lock Haven, Pa. Married, Barbara Louise Colson, Dec. 19, 1948, Charleston, S.C. Child, Marjory, Sept. 22, 1952.
In 1958 I changed jobs, not being able to take the deep South any longer. To make a satisfactory change is not easy for one in his mid-fifties. I enjoy living in the beautiful mountainous sur- roundings of the Susquehanna River valley of central Pennsylvania. I still play the piano and travel as much as ever. I have spent a night in 1280 different places in the world.
LOWELL PIERSON BEVERIDGE: Clergy; Teacher. Home Ad- dress, Seminary Post Office, Alexandria, Va. Office Address, Prot- estant Episcopal Theological Seminary in Virginia, Alexandria, Va.

The past five years have been a period of readjustment for me and my family since I had already left the music profession after a stretch of twenty years as organist and choirmaster at Columbia University in New York, was ordained priest in the Episcopal Church and tackled the job of professor of speech and music at the Vir- ginia Seminary in Alexandria. During this time our elder son was
20

married, our younger son got his A.B. in music from Harvard and we sold our farm on North Haven Island in Maine. Life hasn't been dull but it has been different.

Griswold, Boyden, Wylde & Ames are still working at the same old stand. Our recent labors in behalf of the Harvard Observatory have resulted in shaking my theories on flying saucers. I had the pleasure of watching young Perry stroke the Harvard crew to vic- tory in the Grand Challenge Cup races at Henley last July. A good show. Classmate Swayze will agree as he was there in the capacity of father of the captain and was equally satisfied with the results.
