Good Memories from Fraters John Pinto and Chuck Muser
“John, the woman on the float with you was Betty Bird, Don Bird’s sister. If I recall correctly she and Roger Olsen eventually married.
My God, that was 50 years ago. I remember working on that damned float for ever. I was also the chairman of the parade, and, if I remember correctly, because of all that work, and a few pinochle games here and there, I was put on academic probation after that semester. It was sure fun. Chuck Muser
