1949
It's World Series time as I write this - the second game starting in three minutes-and the Yanks are already off and running with one game under their belt. The Big Green also got off on a winning note last Saturday, so we're looking forward to a successful season on the gridiron. I expect to make the Yale game in New Haven, if not others. Hope I'll see many of you in attendance.
