Visited Fred and Margaret (Blogger's note: Kujawa, cousins) for a while. Bought quite an assortment of holiday goods from Mr. Grace today. Oshkosh City Lines Inc. a new bus concern begins business in Oshkosh today." [from A.E. Potter's diairies]
1947: "To 7 o'clock Mass St, Vincent's. The boys are getting work done at the store that counts. Worked 8 hours today. Tonite we surprise ourselves. We attend the opening official basketball game with the [Oshkosh] "All Stars" playing the Minneapolis Lakers and losing the game 49 to 47 in the last 5 to 10 seconds to play. The "Lakers" have a well organized team. Thres and Mary Ann (daughter) enjoy it very much." [from A.E. Potter's diairies]
