1948
Having recently survived the Dartmouth-Harvard football game without a cardiac arrest I cancelled my annual physical which is usually taken in the fall of the year. In the last column I suggested that Bud Munson ought to find it an easy trip from his new home to the Yale football game - sorry about that Bud!
