Jan./Feb. 2011. 
Sam Ostrow shared his notes on the Rhode Island '67 "Not So Open" Golf and Dinner: Four foursomes of '67 golfers challenged the stunning Rhode Island 
Country Club course. They were blessed with the planning and hosting of Rich Paolino and Larry Bowen. Among the competitors were: Tom Pyles, Tom Grove 
(all the way in from Utah), Steve Cheheyl, Doug and Joan Smith, John Manaras, Ron Koback, Bill Eggeling, Bill and Carol Adams, Beth Paolino, Jack and Mary 
Ellen Curley and Paul Killebrew. Larry and Sharleen Bowen hosted a reception at their home, which was joined by others in the '67 family, including Maureen Cheheyl, 
Rob and Marilyn Edwards, Judy Ostrow and Dave Larson. Dinner followed at the Clubhouse, and then Sam and Judy Ostrow and Tom and Lily Grove had the 
special treat of staying overnight at the Bowens. The gatherings continued at the College. If you have to turn 65, you may as well do it with friends of long standing 
(we're never old) and '67s turned out in style for celebration, conversation, and cheer. Over 50 67's, their wives and friends were welcomed by Bruce Pacht, the 
world's best Reunion Chair, at the Salt Hill pub in Lebanon. Our birthday coincided with the College's celebration of the undefeated 1965 football team, turning the 
event into a movable feast as team members such as Tom Pyles, Tommy Thompson and Andy Danver, moved back and forth between events. Bruce and Sam had 
the Class Tent opened by 10:00 AM in 45 degree temperatures - and joined quickly by Rob and Sandy Kugler, Paul and Joyce Killebrew, Bill and Jenny 
Lamb, John and Susan Manaras, Fred and Andrea Marcusa, Doug and Joan Smith, Fred and Linda Cowan, Roy Courtney Johnson and Susan Defelice, Howard and 
Jill Sharfstein, Rich and Beth Paolino, Nick and Connie Mason, Joe and Becky Alviani, Wayne Beyer, Bill Bogardus and Hal Cash, Rick and Michelle Geissinger, 
Chuck and Young Hobbie, and John and Jan Meck. The tent party was joined by Danny ('13) and Michael ('11) Marcusa and Kelly ('13) Kugler, very much keeping 
the birthday class in touch with today's Dartmouth students. Off we went to a Dartmouth football victory in a cold, windswept Memorial stadium, 
cheering particularly loudly at the halftime celebration honoring our members of the undefeated 1965 team, including Tom Rath, Rich Paolino, Tom Pyles, Bill Sjogren, 
Andy Danver, Chuck Matuszak, Roy Johnson, Bill Eggeling, Bill Calhoun and Wynn Mabry. The birthday dinner, held at the Marriott in Lebanon, featured a '67 Green 
Book Birthday Cake prepared by Amy and Jeff (he denies all credit) Zimmermann, and songs by the 'Aires, including a special tribute to Bruce's great partner, Lori Fontini. 
Sunday morning, '67s intrepid golfers - Steve Cheheyl, John Manaras, Bruce Pacht, John Meck and Sam Ostrow, joined by Ed Heald '68 - again braved 45 degree 
temperatures and 40 mph winds to bring summer and the '67 Turns 65 Birthday Celebration to a fitting end. Thanks Sam! Dave Mangelsdorff (3410 Turtle Village Drive,
