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.

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.

DUNN PHILADELPHIA,PA. How did I make the transition from a Teachers' College to the life insurance business? Here is about how it happened. I waved a fond farewell to Moorhead State Teachers' College, Minnesota, in the spring of 1941, and settled down to do some serious thinking concerning my future. Uncle Sam.supplied some of the answers in September of that year, and for the next five years the Army Air Corps was my boss, and my address was a succession of Army Air Bases and A.P.O. numbers, which stretched from Colorado to Scotland, England, Africa, Italy and Corsica. For two of these years it was my good fortune to be associ- ated with a brother officer, MCapfl Haines, in civilian life a partner in New England Mutual's Philadelphia General Agency, Moore and Haines. He, my wife—a U. S. Army nurse, whom I married in Africa—and I spent long hours discussing life insur- ance and its possibilities as a career for me. It offered all of the things that I had ever hoped for in business: independence, unlimited income possibilities and, most of all, a never-ending challenge to my ability in a field where limits do not exist, excepting as I alone set them. Before I had finished my terminal leave, I was studying for my Pennsylvania State Insurance examination, and was making field trips with my friend from overseas.
