•		Mr.Thomas Champion passed away on May 16th. The obituary is in today's Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
•		Virgil Guenther I'm taking a zumba class in the 81st school cafeteria. The room is pretty much the same except for being decorated w posters and bubbly uneveness of the floor. I remember flirting w Linda Steed and wiping up my spilled milk carton w the sleeve of my flannel shirt because I was afraid to ask for a towel.
•		Hi All, So I'm our class V.P., co-valedictorian, Swim Team co-captain, etc. and have never made it to a reunion. Sorry about that, but Oct. just doesn't work for me. Anyway I've owned this beautiful fishing resort in N.W. Ontario, Canada since 1974 and I have exhibited at the Milwaukee Sportshow for 35 years. Sure would be nice if some of you could at least make it to the show to say HI. My booth # is 507 and it's at the Milwaukee State Fair Park Expo Center March 9-13, 2011. Our resort is perfect for families, reunions or a fishing trip with the guys so check out our website at www.lebrons.com where you'll find all the info you need. It would be better to have you up here to share my little piece of God's Country with me and it's only an 11 hour drive from Milwaukee. All the best to you, Robert(Bob) Lebron

- THIS DAY IN HISTORY -

High Wycombe Weighs New Mayor 20th May ( 1958 ) : An annual custom dating back to medieval times unique to High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, England weighs the Mayor of the town each year so that the public can see whether or not he has been getting fat at the taxpayers' expense.

During the weigh in performed by the local "macebearer" dressed in traditional costume rings a bell and calls out the weight.
When he adds the words "And no more!" the crowd cheers as a sign of their appreciation and gratitude for the hard work done by the mayor for the community.

When he adds the words "And some more!", it means the mayor has been indulging in too much good living at rate payers' expense and the crowd jeers and boos.

Charles Lindbergh 20th May ( 1927 ) :Charles Lindbergh who many called the "flying fool" has set off from Roosevelt Field in Long Island, NY, today flying the "Spirit of St. Louis" on an epic flight from New York to Paris and is a milestone in flying aviation history, he is expected to arrive in Paris sometime late tomorrow. His plane A Ryan is expected to travel up to 125 MPH as the fuel load decreases.
