  • Parker House Boston, Massachusetts January 8, 1986
    Parker House Boston, Massachusetts January 8, 1986 Welcome to this 39th New England Circle, another in a series of these gatherings inaugurated here in this room more than a decade ago. As it has been since that February evening in 1974, our pur- pose has remained steadfast: to provide a forum for the discussion of social, political, educational and literary topics that can lead to constructive change in our lives, our nation, and our world. The foundations of the Circle were first built in the Nine- teenth Century when Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Charles Dickens and other literary lions of their day gathered regularly at the Parker House for their Saturday Club sessions. Their traditions of a lively exchange of opinions and ideas in a hospitable and informal setting are still at the founda- tion of today's Circles: a private, non-profit activity which has welcomed more than 1,000 members from all comers of the region. It is a setting which encourages an easy and open exchange between the discussion leaders and every Circle guest. This evening's discussion leaders, Massachusetts Congress- man Barney Frank and New Hampshire Governor John H. Sununu, are two men of energy and achievement who can be counted on to produce a lively exchange on their own. Never- theless, when they pause to catch their breath, your participation will be welcomed and encouraged. There may be a few New Englanders who aren't quite sure of Barney Frank's current Congressional committee assignments, but there are very few indeed who don't know he's in Congress.
