To: Dick ROBERTS ('49)

Well, well, well. Happy Birthday, Dick. I'm not too far from being
there myself. I heard somewhere that Old Bombers never die they
just loose their hair. (Or was it golf balls).

From the very Bald, Rick

Re: Richard ROBERTS' Birthday [on 3/17]

Well, I wished him a happy birthday this morning and he is really
looking good for an old '49er. No special plans but a great dinner
of corned beef and cabbage with friends and be very glad that we
are "somewhere" together on his special day.
