In the political arena RICK "LITTLE RICKY" SILVERMAN '81 reports that while in Chicago for a plastic surgery meeting, he found himself across the street from the Obama victory rally at Grant Park. Caught up in the excitement, he ambled over to check it out. Who did he scope but his old Phi, DAVE "SPONGE" SPRINGER '79. "More shocking than the fact that you guys ran into each other is the fact that Sponge was at an Obama rally. What's next, cats sleeping with dogs?" said T WEYMOUTH '79. Where was T at the time? "...been in China/Inner Mongolia for a week, now on my way to Bangkok, then on to speak at a conference in Dubai mid-week. Sipping Tsingtao in the lounge, savoring Obama's victory. Life is good". Proving Rick's observation: "Zetes are everywhere!" See the rally pic here

We have learned this winter of the death of brother IRL H. MARSHALL '49 on December 20th, 2007. Irl was born on Feb. 28th, 1929 in Evanston, Illinois. He spent his early years in Racine, WI and Deerfield, IL where he attended Highland Park High School. He enrolled at Dartmouth in 1945 with a major in chemistry. He earned an MBA from the University of Chicago and a degree in franchising from Louisiana State University. Irl enjoyed a long and successful career with Duraclean Intl., a worldwide professional cleaning company. He worked for Montgomery Ward from 1961 to 1977, and was a founder of the International Franchise Association. He drafted the group’s original code of ethics. He was also a longtime member of the Kiwanis Club. He is survived by his wife, Barbara, of 58 years, two daughters, a son and three grandchildren. Through his will, Irl made a generous gift to the 8 Webster Foundation. His magnanimity is fondly appreciated by the brothers of Zeta Psi and will be immortalized in the renovation of the new fraternity house.

Andy was a great sport, and everyone had a blast."
We were saddened to learn of the recent death of brother EDWARD A. GAGE '41 Ed's studies at Dartmouth were interrupted by the attack on Pearl Harbor.
