"PUG" LUND The depression period was a good time to be going to the University of Minnesota instead of trying to get a job. Things were somewhat better when I was graduated in 1935, but the decision I had to make about my future was still a difficult one. The possibilities ranged from playing professional foot- ball to selling life insurance. A number of insurance com- panies approached me, but I was stubbornly blind to the oppor- tunities in that field. Having majored in business administra- tion, I felt there was a greater future in a sales job with a large automobile manufacturer- That's the job I took. It was a good one, providing excellent experience and a substantial salary. However, as the years went along, I often wondered about the permanency of my future in such a dynamic business. Was I building anything of my own? When the war curtailed car sales, it didn't take me long to decide on a career of life* insurance* It offered me a busi- ness of my own, with never a fear for security as long as I worked, and richly rewarding compensation in direct proportion to my efforts. As the company I wanted to live with the rest of my life, I chose the New England Mutual. Since January 1942, except for almost three years in the service, I have been thoroughly enjoying every day of life insurance. I can honestly say there hasn't been a single disappointment in my decision. GRADUATES of our Home Office training courses, practically all of them new to the life insurance These Cornell men are New England Mutual representatives: business, are selling at a rate which produces aver- age first-year incomes of $3600.

"I chose my wife, as she did her wedding gown, not for a fine glossy surface, but such qualities as would wear well ..." ΓHE VICAR OF WAKEFIELD for "such qualities as would wear well" JJLHH E dressmaker who pleased the vicar's wife, even as she herself pleased the vicar, did so, we submit, by a time-tested procedure: painstaking attention to the details that add up to excellence; assiduous care with the parts upon which is founded the quality of the whole. The exacting requirements of customers like the vicar and his wife are those which General Electric products are built to meet. We feel that we could turn our wares be- neath the vicar's appraising eye with equa- nimity, Before the customer has a chance to ex- amine a General Electric refrigerator, for example, specially developed electronic "sniff- ers" have made sure there is not the slight- est leak in its refrigerating unit .

    Your guide to resources that support all the dimensions of your wellbeing. HR.CORNELL.EDU/WELLBEING 1 2 1.6.20 Dear Colleague, During your time with Cornell, we want you to be well and THRIVE. Cornell invests in benefits, programs, and services to support employee wellbeing. This guide features a wide range of university (and many community!) resources available to support you in various dimensions of your wellbeing. As you browse this guide, which is organized around Cornell’s Seven Dimensions of Wellbeing model pictured below, you’ll find many resources cross-referenced in multiple dimensions. This illustrates the multifaceted nature of wellbeing. It is often non-linear in nature, and our most important elements shift as our work and Mary Opperman personal lives evolve. CHRO and Vice President Division of Human Resources We experience wellbeing both personally and as members of our various communities, including our work community. We each have opportunities to positively contribute to Cornell’s culture of wellbeing as we celebrate our colleagues’ life events, support one another during difficult times, share resources, and find creative approaches to how, where, and when work gets done. Behind this page is a “quick start directory” of Cornell wellbeing-related contacts. Please save this page and reach out any time you need assistance! Although some of these resources are specific to Cornell’s Ithaca campus, we recognize and are continuing to focus on expanding offerings to our employees in all locations. Thank you for all of your contributions

Among other topics, Webb advised that he was the last survivor of the three “Bronxville Boys” who came to Cornell in 1950 from that village in Westchester County. They roomed together as freshmen, joined Delta Upsilon together and remained close friends through graduation and beyond. They even sat side by side in the 54 Cornellian’s group photo of their fraternity. Boyce Thompson, who died in 2009, worked for Pet Milk in St. Louis for a few years after graduation and later moved to Dallas where he formed and ran a successful food brokerage specializing in gourmet mixed nuts. Ever the comedian, his business phone number (after the area code) was 223-6887, which made the letters BAD-NUTS. Thankfully, his customers did not figure it out.

  • Chimesmasters Attend 2008 Guild of Carillonneurs Congress Ryan Fan ‘10, and Scott Silverstein ‘08 and Jennifer Lory-Moran ‘96, ‘97
    Fall 2008 No. 41 Newsletter of the Cornell Chimesmasters and McGraw Tower Chimesmasters attend 2008 Guild of Carillonneurs Congress Ryan Fan ‘10, and Scott Silverstein ‘08 and Jennifer Lory-Moran ‘96, ‘97 This summer, three chimesmasters basked in the California sun for several days while attending the 66th Congress of the Guild of Carillonneurs in North America (GCNA). From the very moment we set foot on the University of California (UC) Berkeley campus, we (Jen Lory-Moran ‘96, ‘97, Scott Silverstein ‘08, and Ryan Fan ‘10) were inundated with amazing carillon music issuing forth from Sather Tower, which was modeled after the campanile in St. Mark’s Square in Venice, as was our very own McGraw Tower. Sather Tower stands at 307 feet and holds a 61-bell carillon. Besides carillon recitals and GCNA c a n d i d a t e s ’ examination recitals, there were performances by several well-known carillonneurs, such as Gordon Slater and Geert D’hollander. Both carillonneurs had held master classes for the Cornell Chimesmasters in the past year (as noted in the Spring 2008 Cornell Chimes Newsletter). At the end of the conference, they were the only two carillonneurs awarded the prestigious Berkeley Medal for their services to the carillon. Jen, who served as Geert D’hollander’s official page-turner during his recital, declared that watching him play was one of the most thrilling experiences she has ever had. Not only was this a rare occasion for the chimesmasters to 307-foot Slather Tower at the University simply sit and listen to live carillon music; of California at Berkeley.

    Fall 2007 No. 39 Newsletter of the Cornell Chimesmasters and McGraw Tower Chimesmasters Head South for GCNA 2007 Crystal Cun ‘07 and Jennifer Lory-Moran ‘96, ‘97 In June, we had the opportunity to attend the 2007 Guild of Carillonneurs of North America (GCNA) Congress at the University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee. As always, it was a fantastic experience. The congress allows student carillonneurs to gain admittance into the guild, and this year’s conference included four exam candidates, as well as many recitals by professional carillonneurs. Nothing compares to laying in the grass in gorgeous weather while listening to beautiful music! The University of the South features a 56-bell carillon, and we jumped on the chance to tour Shapard Tower and play a new instrument. However, in case conquering one tower wasn’t enough, the congress provided ample opportunities to explore other bell instruments. Jennifer went on an outing to Ooltewah, Tennessee to see the newest carillon in the United States at the time. Meeks and Watson had finished the installation about two hours before the group’s arrival! As part of the post- congress activities, we visited three carillons at Belmont University, David Lipscomb University, and an installation of 95 bells (representing each county in Tennessee) in 50 towers Crystal Cun ‘07 tries out the carillon at David at the Bicentennial Mall. Each of the 50 Lipscomb University while at GCNA. towers contained one, two, or three bells, and they were placed in a large circle and played remotely from a cabin. Wild! Carillons aside, the conference provided plenty of other learning experiences.

  • Newsletter of the Cornell Chimesmasters and Mcgraw Tower
    Spring 2005 No. 35 Newsletter of the Cornell Chimesmasters and McGraw Tower Presentation - October 7, 1868 Francis M. Finch The following is an excerpt from the compilation Bells of Cornell published in 1928 and edited by Albert W. Smith, 1878. Francis M. Finch was a friend and legal adviser of Ezra Cornell; later he was Justice of the Court of Appeals of New York State, and afterward was Dean of the Cornell Law School. At the inauguration exercises of Cornell University, October seventh 1868, Mr. Finch gave an address on behalf of Miss Jennie McGraw, presenting the original chime to the University. This notable address, in part and slightly revised, follows here: Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Board of Trustees: I am commissioned by Miss McGraw to present to you this chime of bells for the use of the University; and to ask your acceptance of the gift as a token of her interest in the enterprise which, today, so hopefully and bravely begins its work. She has watched its development, from the dawn of the grand purpose in the mind of its projector through clouds that often obscured, and amid storms that sometimes assailed it, until now, as it emerges into sunlight and begins its generous toil, she brings you this useful and beautiful gift, with as much pleasure in the giving as you, I am well assured, will feel in receiving it at her hands. The same energy and rapidity of execution which in a few brief years has given us a University, manned and equipped, and ready to begin its centuries of work, has enabled her to give you these bells today.

How it all came about is told in Rebel In Radio and will appeal to a wide audience - those involved profes- sionally in communications, musicians and music lovers as well as the general reader - interested in a warm and pleasant first -hand account by the man who guided it for more than 30 years. ELLIOTT M. SANGER was graduated from the School of Journalism, Columbia University, and spent many years in advertising and publishing before he and John V. L. Hogan established WQXR in 1936. He was Executive Vice -President and General Manager of WQXR from 1936 to 1965, and retired as Chairman of the Board in 1967. Mr. Sanger now is Chairman of the All- Industry Radio Music License Committee which negotiates music performance licenses with ASCAP, BMI and others, for all the local radio stations in the United States.

Hogan, had the unique idea of combining the science of radio with the ancient art of music, and started what eight years later became the now -famous WQXR, "The Radio Station of The New York Times." That concept blazed a trail in the wilderness of broadcasting which was followed by many stations across the country.
