Harry Hilliard wrote this brief
update: “As time marches on, I
am ever more grateful for the
educational, social, and envi-
ronmental experiences that I
still remember from my four
years at SPS.”
Goodwin Millar reported in
October: “I’m gung-ho for the
75th Anniversary! I’m looking
forward to it!”

On September 26, Robert Pen-

of his civil and human rights
advocacy. The Alliance for Jus-

Clive Runnells and his wife,
Nancy, were celebrated at a
luncheon of the Mental Health
America of Greater Houston.
The Runnells have been pro-
moting mental health in the
Houston area since the 1980s,
when Nancy co-founded The
Gathering Place, which pro-
vides a supportive environ-
ment for people with mental
illness. Having received the Ima
Hogg Award in May 1993 for
their contributions to mental
health, the Runnells continued
their work, with Clive serving
on the board of the University
of Texas Health Science Center
at Houston. At the university
they founded the Pierce, Nancy,
and Clive Runnells Chair in
Neurosurgery, the University
of Texas Embryonic Stem Cell
Research Fund, and the Uni-
versity of Texas Distinguished
Chair in Emergency Medicine.
The Runnells family also sup-
ports stem cell research at the
Brown Foundation Institute
of Molecular Medicine for the
Prevention of Human Diseases.
Their philanthropic efforts
have allowed the IMM to de-
velop four of their own stem
cell lines, two of which have
been approved by the National
Institutes of Health.

SamCooley, JohnWagley, and
I returned to SPS for Alumni
Volunteer Weekend. Things are
really going well at SPS, and it
was uplifting to visit. Among
other things, it is indicative of
the spirit that students all say
“hello” when you pass them go-
ing one way or another. While
we still can, we must go back, to
see the School and each other,
at our 65th reunion from May
30 to June 1, 2014. We shall have
transportation to and fromcam-
pus and on Saturday are invited
for a small dinner at the Rectory.
I haven’t been inside the Rec-
tory, and many of you probably
haven’t either (except possibly
under some long-past disciplin-
ary circumstances). Late May/
early June is a beautiful time
in Concord, and it will be fun to
see each other. Meanwhile, stay
healthy, and do make the effort
to come. More about arrange-
ments will follow shortly.

News from Dick Paine: “This
is my year for experiencing the
dreaded college admission pro-
cesswith our five grandchildren:
SATs, grades, sports, etc. Three
grandchildren are in college (two
at Trinity and one at Hamilton)
and two more to go as seniors.
Over 50 applications sent so
far! Forget the Ivy League (un-
less your child wins American
Idol or is a 6’ 9” quarterback or
NHL recruit). The old days of all-
around, multi-sport days and
gentleman B’s are gone. Good
luck to the SPS Form of 2014.”
