Hi
'52ers.
This
column
is
being
written
in
early
May
2000,
just
about
two
year
away
from
our
50th
Reunion!
The
recent
class
letter
from
vice
presidents
Ralph Fortney
and
Ed Leidheiser
(deceased)
indicates
that
the
50'
planning
is in
good
hands
with
president
Bob McCann
(deceased) overseeing,
Bill Smith
(our
reunion
guru - deceased)
coordinating,
Cass Camarda
(secretary)(deceased)
recording,
and
Randy Zehner
(deceased, Treasurer)
counting
the
money!
I
will
report
reunion
updates
as
they
become
available.
Set
aside
June
6-9,
2002
- we
are
going
to
have
a
blast!
Other
news

the
mail
bag:
Norm Merksamer

tour
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(his
home
turf)
to a
group
of
Lehigh
students
who
won a
business
concept
contest.
Norm
sprung
for
lunch
and
the
students
loved
looking
at
the
business
world
through
"reality"
glasses
A

40
years

That's
all
for
now
except
to
report
a
personal
note.
I
