camera), ??? (standing), John Rothchild, Klaus Stoscheck, Billy
Haarman(?), Lenny Dick (standing), Steve Pfeffer?, Kenny Irvis, Yen
Chin, Ben Welch (standing), Michael Capece?, Jerry Krasnoff?, Alberto
Sanz, Leo Coleman, Jack Levy. The boy on the far right, standing with
his back to the camera, might be Mike Gerver (or it could be
Joe).
What are these folks doing now? Joe Gerver teaches math at the Camden campus of Rutgers. John Rothchild lives in Miami and is the captain of a ship which sails all over the world collecting specimens for aquariums and doing underwater archaeology. Klaus Stoscheck was assassinated by a rightwing death squad in 1980 in Guatemala, where he was teaching organic farming methods to the peasants. Lenny Dick, our recording secretary, teaches math at the Ramaz School, a yeshiva in New York. Kenny Irvis is an MD in Pittsburgh. Yen Chin, our newsletter editor, lives in Seattle and describes himself as a bureaucrat. Leo Coleman died in Vietnam in 1970. Mike Gerver is a physicist who designs medical imaging systems for GE in Haifa.
