Our classmate Nat Leverone is getting a great deal of newspaper publicity from St. Petersburg to Montreal and from Boston to Los Angeles, because of his financial interest in the Kansas City baseball team. Maybe the class could arrange to have him bring his team to Hanover at the time of our Fiftieth and play against a 1906 team. In checking the 1906 Aegis 1 find we could field a team of nine experienced players plus a manager.
