After 25 years, Jim Sisserson is leaving the active practice of law. I am looking forward to more time with family and finding one or more careers for the next 25 years!
Richard Haberkern traveled with his two senior-year roommates, Bob Lloyd and Ron Naymark and their entire families (11 total), to the Greek Islands and the Turkish Coast to celebrate their respective 50th birthdays. Richard described it as a great trip.
Class President Allen Adlers 50th, given in NYC by his lovely wife, Frances, featured dinner and dancing and lots of PU reminiscences and was littered with 67ers, including John Claster, Jay Higgins, Bob Mayer, Jack LaPorte, Peter Safir, and Frank Strasburger.

Richard Blumenthal was named president of the Princeton Club of Rochester, N.Y., where he has been headmaster of the Harley School for 4 1/2 years. Richard writes that he has seen a lot of Conger Gabel, whose three sons have all gone to Harley.
Tom Houston has opened a consulting firm in Hunang, China, as a satellite office for his law practice in L.A. Dean Tjosvold has joined Paul Christenson in Hong Kong. Pauls doing very well in the restaurant business, but working too hard. Dean is at City Univ. doing management studies in China. Dean writes that their four children are learning lots of Mandarin, but not him.
