The Alumni Records Office sent SpudSpaulding a "second request" 1971 questionnaire which Spud obediently filled out and returned, but with a notation: "I mailed you the first request, so help me Nancy [Elliott]!" Spud was right, for his Alumni Records file contains both questionnaire forms duly executed. But what troubles us is Spud's uncertainty about the spelling of his wife's name and the date of their marriage. The first form recites "Kay" and "1927," respectively; but the second try came out "Kae" and "1926." (Note to Spud: After you have consulted your wife kindly report back.)
