Notes from classy Portsmouth's Elder statespeople

Dick Klitch and I are meeting at First Watch in Worthington at 9:30 this morning. Any who wish to join us certainly may. I talked with Alice, Smokey's wife, and she thought Smokey could better make it when the cold weather breaks.

Sam, I've seen that moviec. Thanks just the same. One testimony to the kind of Athlete and person Pat James of New Boston was, and the kind of athlete, is his history with the Bear. Played for him at U of Ken. and was a line coach for him as long as he was in the business. Pat probably is dead. I worked with him at the N & W freight station while we both were still in High school. He was a very close friend of Keith Gaspich(M.D.) and I think lived with the Gaspich family to finish his last year at NB, after his family moved out of town. Keith was a great player at New Boston also in 1944. He and Keith were half their backfield; althoug, typically the bear made a college guard of Pat
