Thank you, class, for all the information you send in.  You make my job a pleasure.  Bill Erdman (Maitland, Fla.) reminds us that the Class Of '52 Website is up and running for more than three years.  Bill posts class information and sends out any news items reported directly to the site to all e-mail addresses he possesses.  For Internet privacy Bill does not post any of the e-mail addresses on the site, but will furnish an e-mail address upon request.  Be sure to send Bill your current, accurate e-mail address.  The web site address is listed above; Use the on-line information form.

Gordon Maxson updates us on Wil Wilbern's condition.  Gordon visited Will in Newport News in August.  Will looked great, but his left arm and leg are paralyzed.  He is getting around in a wheelchair and his spirits are high.  Good luck, Will, you are in our thoughts.  Will's phone number is (757) 833-1128 and cell (716) 628-6530.

I speak periodically with Dick Schmidt, my Arizona neighbor, and he gave me a treasure trove of DU information.  Charlie Paules has been in Hilton Head for nine summers, and 2003 was the hottest yet.  Charlie and his wife, Susan, did get away in May 2003 for a cruise from Lisbon to Rome, with stops on the way.

Pete Shaw writes a long, newsy e-mail outlining his wife, Dotsie's, involvement with the Presbyterian Women Global Exchange, which takes her on speaking engagements to the northeastern states where she presents the highlights of her two-week trips to Ghana and Kenya in October 2002.  On the Albany visit, the Shaws stayed with Betsey and Mayo Snyder.

Don Moodie remarried in May '02, is living happily in Wolfeboro, N.H., and still owns his company in Nashua, N.H.  Bill Smith e-mailed that the Fordham game was a "lousy-weather/ great game" kind of day.  Bill saw Ruestow, Kuss, Levan, Sgambelluri, and Flynn, stalwarts all.  By the time this column reaches you, the football season will be long over; but at this writing, four games, three victories is a solid start!

William Skillman of Linthicum, Md., retired engineer at Westinghouse (Baltimore, Md.), has been named 2003 recipient of the IEEE D. J. Picard Medal for Radar Technologies and Applications.  Bill was honored for his pioneering work in pulse Doppler radar design, including advances in the Airborne Warning and Control System.  The AWACS is considered one of the most effective air surveillance tools and is used the world over.

I know we can be proud of Lehigh's ranking in a recent U.S. News & World Report magazine.  Lehigh was in the top 15 percent of all universities and achieved a top ranking as to graduating scholar / athletes.  Lehigh continues to excel as an institution for all seasons.

There is plenty more to report, but we will have to wait until next time.  Thanks and Happy New Year.
