From Woodbridge, Conn., comes a note from Russ Potter stating that, "Whatever your system is for reminding us all that we are growing older, I am sure that it works. It is indeed a wonderful custom and thanks for the card. Squire Perkins (Lymie '16), our fairly close neighbor, had a slight heart attack in the early part of June but is now recovering in good shape. He still thought he was captain of the ball team the way be was moving and lifting rocks against the advice of us all. Now we all hope he will be the country gentleman and take it easy. Young Russ had a daughter born three weeks ago so now I have five grandchildren. At Thanksgiving with Sandy too at home we shall have quite a crowd."
