As it used to be reported in "Pogo" many years ago; thank
heavens Friday the 13th happened on a Sunday this month.

And that just happens to coincide with a Bomber Birthday. To
say I knew this guy when might be stretching it a bit. But I
did know him. As rumor has it, we even graduated at the same
ceremony. And it could have been outside, if someone hadn't
been frightened by the appearance of a cloud over Badger.

A tip of the ol' propeller beanie and a "Happy Birthday!" to
Bill WENDLAND ('54). Keep on having them, and we'll possibly
talk at the big do come this September.

	high pressure seems to be back for a while and fending 
	off any form of precipitation.

Hello Alan AVERY ('54)!!

We were not only Frat Bros., but if memory is correct,
roommates after you returned from your grand Mexico City
adventure in late 1950s.

I'm on the extreme left side, the boy with the shaved head,

I'm now living in Gilroy, CA, retired, sometimes writing
books on California Machinery History, available online at

Would love to hear more about your Mexico City adventures...

We recently learned of the death of classmate Charles H. 
"Chuck" WILEY ('60) who passed on February 13, 2017. 

What an interesting life he led. He was a talented visual
artist and musician. He worked for George Lucas on special
effects for Star Wars, Indiana Jones and many other movie
sets. He also was an accomplished musician, playing bass,
guitar, mandolin, fiddle and banjo for a variety of bands
including the award-winning "Phantoms of the Opry". He was
the beat behind the Old Time Music band, "The Road Oilers,
playing bass and singing with his lovely voice.

RIP buddy!
