WILLIAM EHRLICH: Retail Business. Home Address, 28 Buck- ingham St., Cambridge, Mass. Office Address, Touraine Stores, 1360 Commonwealth Ave., Boston, Mass. Married, Evelyn Seltzer, Nov. 18, 1929, Philadelphia, Pa. Children, Ellen, Dec. 4, 1931 (m. Melvin J. Gardner); Thomas, Harvard '56, LL.B., '59, March 4, 1934 (m. Ellen Rome). Grandchildren, Janet Elizabeth Gardner, 1954; Gail Gardner, 1956; David Rome Ehrlich, 1959.


The first twenty-five years after college were devoted to watch- ing my children grow up. The last five years history has been re- peating itself, only this time it is with my grandchildren. Both of my children are married and seem to be following the pattern of their generation by either having or planning to have large families. Ellen lives in San Francisco, and we go out to see her every winter. This cuts down the opportunity of travel to other parts of the world, but I doubt if we will ever give up the chance of spending three or four weeks with our daughter, her husband, and their children. Tom graduated from Law School last spring and is planning to settle in Milwaukee, where he has taken a job which offers him a marvelous opportunity. This year he and his wife and baby are


61

living in New York while he clerks for a federal judge, and this gives my wife and me some chance to see him. By next year, Mil- waukee will be on our schedule on the way to the West Coast.


I am still connected with Touraine Stores, which do a business in women's clothing in ten cities in the suburbs of Boston. I am vice-president of this organization. I am also president of D. P. Ehrlich Company and Leavitt and Pierce, both of which sell pipes, tobacco, etc. The L&P connection has been quite recent as the Ehrlich Company took them over in 1956. As an old Harvard tra- dition, Leavitt's has been fun to run. When my brother and I bought it, it had lost most of the quality which it had when we were in college, and we have spent considerable time and effort in work- ing to bring it back to its old position. The pool tables had long since gone when we took it over, and a quick lunch counter was occupying all of one side of the store. We quickly dispensed with that and have tried to fill the store with as many Harvard memen- toes as possible, and it now has much of the same flavor it had when we were in college. My extracurricular activities still keep me busy, as I am treasurer of the Boston Girl Scouts, a director of International Student House in Cambridge, and serve on several philanthropic boards.

JOSEPH PATRICK EVANS: Professor of Neurological Surgery. Home Address, 1234 E. 56th St., Chicago, Ill. Office Address, Uni- versity of Chicago Clinics, Chicago, Ill. Married, Hermene Eisen- man, June 24, 1929, Brookline, Mass. Children, Mary F., March 17, 1930 (m. François Bapst); Edward and Frederick N. (twins), Oct. 17, 1931; Caroline, July 28, 1936 (m.

Grandchildren, José Damaso Villa, Dec. 11, 1956; Ignacio Villa, July 30, 1958; Diego Francisco Villa, Nov. 13, 1959.


The past five years have been full ones for us as a family. In July of 1954 I was asked to take charge of neurological surgery at the University of Chicago. The professional opportunity was such that I could not refuse, and so with real regret we left Cincinnati in October of that year, having spent seventeen very happy years with the University there. The family transplanted well, the Uni- versity of Chicago more than fulfilled its promises, and we have had no regrets over the change for we have not lost our real Cin- cinnati friends. Meantime, our older boys have done their military service and are continuing in government work. Our second daugh- ter was married several years ago to a Colombian engineer and lives in South America. She has just presented us with a third grand- son. Our oldest daughter was married this fall to a young Swiss engineer and now lives in Geneva. We took the occasion of her


64


Harvard Class of 1925


wedding to bring to Europe our third daughter who had just com- pleted nursing training at the Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal, and our three youngest children who are now in school in Fribourg, Switzerland.


At the time of writing; we are just back from a visit to Poland as a part of a three months' leave, during which I am visiting various continental clinics for comparison with earlier experi- ences in Europe. Incidentally, Hermene and I are trying to re- furbish our own thinking. Aside from professional activities with associated medical writing, my chief interest has been in com- munity inter-relationships, particularly of the deterrents to religious assimilation in academic life. I serve on the board of the Hyde Park Neighborhood Club, a neighborhood settlement organization; on the board of the North American Liturgical Conference; and on the President's Council of Xavier University in Cincinnati. My time is mostly occupied, however, with responsibility for a small but active clinical group, for teaching, and for an investigative pro- gram dealing with certain diseases of the nervous system.
