As will be more completely treated in a Pace-Setter before this sees the light of day, a cocktail party and buffet has been scheduled for the Brown Game Saturday night in Alumni Hall.

During the course of one of my moderately frequent swings around New England visiting schools last spring, I had the great pleasure of an evening in Plainville, Conn., with Rod Washburn. Rod has enough troubles with the serious illness of his wife to get anyone down, but he was cheerful and is quite obviously prospering in the business world. He has regretted not making the 25th, but here, again, his wife's sickness prevented his getting to Hanover.

Ted will be director of the Raleigh office of the firm, which has other branches in Columbia, S. C., and Washington, D. C. Ted graduated from the Thayer School and then from the Harvard Graduate School of Design; wife, Peg, also graduated from Harvard, and the two have been highly successful in their career here in Hanover.

In North Carolina also, Ted will teach at the University.
