Ralph Maynard Wight ("Pee Wee ) of R.F.D. 1, Exeter, N. H. 03833 is recuperating at his home following major surgery performed in the late winter. Everyone hopes he will be able to make the trip to Hanover for our 60th this month as he and Florence have been faithful attendants at reunions over the past years.

The French family got into the operation class in mid-March when Hazel underwent major surgery which proved to be non-malignant and then had an eye hemorrhage. Several of the medical profession are working on her and we are planning on being in Hanover for the 60th.
