ALFRED CODMAN, JR .: Sales Representative. Home Address, 6 Oakvale Rd., Framingham, Mass. Office Address, J. C. Hall Co., Pawtucket, R.I. Married, Ann Clark, Aug. 22, 1942, Boston, Mass.
Nothing new since the Thirtieth Anniversary Report - except we are five years older. At times we feel it. I travel a little more for my company (bank stationers and lithographers ), including the whole state of Vermont and part of New Hampshire - and old Massachusetts. Thank the Lord my wife likes to drive, or it would break my ever-aching back. But I'm still trying to figure out how the hell I can put her on the expense account. Still hope to be around for the Fiftieth.

After so many years perhaps I should have become a philosopher and look with casual disdain at the events of the past five, which seem to have passed with great rapidity though uneventfully. I have experienced hardly anything new or exciting. I am living in the same house and holding down the same job, yet I view life with enthusiasm and still hope by good fortune to achieve some small accomplishments such as playing a round of golf in the low eighties or mastering some of the complexities of the stock market and benefiting modestly thereby.

Harvard Class of 1925
Last year my wife, Jo, and I traveled to England, where the weather and people both treated us most graciously. Generally, however, I am quite content to stay near Boston and enjoy the suburban way of life in this part of the country.

I moved to Berkeley in February, 1953, and assumed ownership of Mademoiselle, ladies' specialty shop. I have been very active in the local Chamber of Commerce, Downtown Merchants' Asso- ciation, and Retail Trade Bureau. I have served for one and one- half years on the Joint Committee for the Redevelopment of Down- town Berkeley, and have also been a member of the board of direc- tors of Temple Beth El, Berkeley.
Since coming to Berkeley my chief diversions have been garden- ing and oil painting (the latter strictly a Sunday affair). My wife and I have just returned from a six-weeks tour of the Orient, having visited Bangkok, Angkor Wat (Cambodia), Hong Kong, and Japan.

35th Anniversary Report
My chief extra-curricular activity has been as chairman and life trustee of our local Lincoln Public Library. This latter work has been interesting and rewarding beyond all expectations.
JOHN YOUNGLOVE COLE: Mining and Law. Address, 2930 Ramona St., Palo Alto, Calif. Married, Cicily Ainsworth, March 15, 1933, New York, N.Y. Child, John Younglove, Jr., June 13, 1936.

Still in general practice of law with my father, William E. Collins, who is in his sixtieth year at the bar. We moved to Norwell (at one time called South Scituate ) in the summer of 1957. In May of 1959, we sailed for Europe and "superintended" the birth of our first grandchild in southern Switzerland. On the continent for the month of June, we also visited Paris, Florence, and Rome. This provincial highly recommends similar financial indiscretions.
LORING CONANT: Executive Secretary, Trustees of Reservations. Home Address, 914 High St., Dedham, Mass. Office Address, Trustees of Reservations, 224 Adams St., Milton, Mass. Married, Leonida Elizabeth Hennick, Jan. 30, 1932, Wellesley Hills, Mass. Children, Loring, Jr., Harvard '61, Aug. 15, 1939; Anne Kingsbury, Radcliffe '54, Dec. 24, 1932 (m. Walter J. Gamble). Grandchild, Robert Loring Gamble, Jan. 22, 1960.
After thirty years in the wool business, I finally gave up the quest for the "golden fleece" and on June 10, 1958, closed the door to my Summer Street office in Boston to become executive secretary of the Trustees of Reservations, a private organization incorporated in the year 1891 to preserve places of natural beauty and historic interest in the state of Massachusetts. This new assignment has great fascination and interest in providing the opportunity to pre- serve for future generations some of the scenic open space areas in this state.
Advancing years seem to have put a crescendo on participation

in my outdoor interests of fly fishing, bird study and photography. The weeks and years are far too short but are extremely pleasant and lead to a happy life with my family and friends.

DANIEL MICHAUX COXE: Anthracite Coal Land Agent. Home Address, Main Road, Drifton, Luzerne Co., Pa. Office Address, Drifton, Luzerne Co., Pa. Married, Dorothy Weld, Aug. 9, 1927, Santa Barbara, Calif. Children, Brinton, Harvard '49, June 15, 1928; Weld, Harvard '51, Nov. 9, 1929 (m. Georgia Mattison). Grand- children, Robin Mattison Coxe, Nov. 23, 1951; Sally Morrison Coxe, Dec. 8, 1954; Donald Mattison Coxe, May 27, 1956.
I am still living in Drifton, Pennsylvania, and working in what remains of the anthracite coal business. It is a good life with lots of time for reading and thinking.
I, as an ex-25, and my two sons, Brinton, ex-'49, who is a bache- lor and a petroleum engineer working all over the world, and Weld, ex-'51, who is living in suburban Philadelphia and working for the Pennsylvania Railroad, all consider ourselves Harvard men and are very proud of the fact. This, in spite of the fact that my grandson, Donald Mattison Coxe, who was born since the 1950 Report, is in the unique position of having four Yale grandparents, as Mrs. Coxe
43

and I and Mr. and Mrs. Mattison, my daughter-in-law's parents, all attended Yale graduate schools.

Five years older and grayer since 1955, still in the same business at the same location, scoring TV and travel films that other more adventurous folk make. My three boys are growing up fine and my wife and I are looking forward to the Thirty-fifth Anniversary Reunion. Be seeing you all.
FRANCIS VALENTINE CRANE: Retired from Tanning Business. Home Address, "Crane Point," P.O. Box 245, Marathon, Fla. Mar- ried, Mary Winslow Allen, Aug. 27, 1927, Norwood, Mass.
In the Thirtieth Anniversary Report I said that technicians, sur- geons, brokers and lawyers all had had a field day. Since then I have managed to eliminate the surgeons, mainly because of their great skill during the previous five-year period, but I continue to be fair game for the others!
"Crane Hammock," our residential development, is going for- ward nicely with twenty-one lots, totaling over twenty-five per cent, of the "Hammock" sold.
The most important single accomplishment since 1955 has been the construction and, in February, 1959, the opening here on the Florida Keys of the Southwest Museum of the North American Indian, sponsored by the Crane Foundation, an educational non- profit corporation established by Mary and me. During this first year of operation our museum register recorded visitors from forty- seven states, including Hawaii, Canadian provinces, four Latin- American countries, England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, six European nations and the Ukraine.
1960 finds me a governor of the Fisherman's Hospital of the Florida Keys and a member of the Fund-raising and Building Com- mittee. I don't have as much opportunity as I would like to par- take of the wonderful fishing right at our door!

THOMPSON BAKER CRANE: Journalist - Senior Copy Editor. Home Address, Avery Rd., Garrison, N.Y. Office Address, Business Week, 330 W. 42d St., New York, N.Y. Married, Marguerite Moyer, Nov. 15, 1930, Paris, France.
THOMAS JOHNSTONE CRAWFORD: Consulting Engineer (Welding). Home and Office Address, P.O. Box 171, Gaylord, Mich. Married, Edith Griffiths, July 22, 1932 (divorced 1940); Elo- ise Elizabeth Hewitt, June 21, 1941, Youngstown, Ohio. Children, Thomas Joseph, Oct. 25, 1934; Nancy Louise, June 20, 1936; Jean Elizabeth, July 16, 1942; Peter Hewitt, July 18, 1943.
For the past fifteen years, I have been acting as an individual consultant in all phases of engineering involving welding. Have been granted some fifty or sixty United States and foreign patents in this field; these have enjoyed some considerable commercial success.
During the past three years, I have been gradually moving my principal residence and office to Gaylord, in the ski country of Michigan, from the Detroit area where I have been located since 1946. I find that I can readily commute the 200 miles to Detroit in little more than an hour in my light plane.
Sad to say, it appears that I shall miss the Reunion this year, since I must be in Belgium that week as an American representative to the annual meeting of the International Institute of Welding.
Currently, I am also president of C. E. Phillips Company of Detroit and a director of Mid-South Equipment Company of At- lanta, Georgia. I also have a small research company: Crawford Engineering Company, of Gaylord, Michigan. My interests in the southeast seem to be expanding and we are considering establishing another part-time residence in Georgia or Florida.

My principal business (senior vice-president of the American Mutual Liability Insurance Company) continues to be looking after the company's investment portfolio; hence I would appreciate hearing from any classmate who knows where interest rates and the stock market are going. I am also president of the Lexington Savings Bank. For the year 1948-9 I was president of the Boston Security Analysts Society. My only foreign travel was in 1957, when I went to Europe with Margaret and son Bob to visit Ginny, who was studying at the Sorbonne. She took us around. She is now teaching French at Columbia.

I liquidated my business in 1957 and since then have been spending some time with the Francis Ouimet Caddie Scholarship Fund, a charitable corporation helping needy Massachusetts cad- dies obtain a college education.

We still have our farm in Mad- bury, New Hampshire, where we expect to spend more and more time as the years roll by. My daughter, Margaret, is engaged to

I do not have much to report except for a sort of change of life. I ceased being a "business man" and for a few years I was consultant to the U.S.A.F. In October, 1956, Alec White asked me to serve as his assistant on the Program for Harvard College. So for the past three years, I have been indeed busy in extracting money from class- mates and others. It has been a fine assignment - interesting, en- joyable, and of course in a cause in which I thoroughly believe. I
48

now see ahead of me several years of raising money - but not as a professional - for Harvard, Sarah Lawrence, and a few others. I must be one of the few who find this enjoyable.
