CLASS NOTES 1950s Murray B. Weil Jr. ’51 wishes to honor and pay tribute to his two outstanding classmates Arthur Sharenow ’51 and Harry Kaplan ’51. Arthur scored the last touchdown ever scored in a CSW football game and was an outstanding baseball pitcher during his college career at Colby College and Brandeis University. After graduating from Harvard Law School, Arthur purchased a summer camp in New Hampshire and with his wife Judy gave valuable assistance to many youngsters and helped shaped to their futures. His camp was recognized in his field as one of the leading summer camps. Harry Kaplan, deceased, was on the CSW basketball team and though short in height, he was large in heart and playmaking ability, competing against opponents who were much taller than him. Harry attended Cornell University and NYU Law School, after which he moved to California, where he was well recognized as one of the leading tax attorney specialists. He left us much too soon and attended the 1999 CSW reunion with Murray and Arthur prior to his passing.

Sally Brotman ’63 writes: During the COVID lockdown my husband Carl Brotman '63 built a sturdy hen house and we started raising a flock of six tiny chicks. They arrived by mail when they were a few days old and when they were six months old, they started laying delicious eggs. Since then, we’ve been bartering our surplus eggs for fresh oysters and mussels and whatever folks have to offer. The hens recycle our garden weeds and kitchen scraps into fertilizer and the flock warns us when
