1935: "Drove to Milwaukee this morning with Joe and Anna Weisheipl and Joe Jr. Had lunch at Menominee Falls. The folks are down to visit Cork who is playing at the Riverside Theatre with Stan Mayers Band. I had business at the Drug Service, The Mutual and also had a nice visit with A. C. Grace of McClurg. Saw the show in the evening and visited with Cork. Left Milwaukee about 1 A.M. and run into a sleet storm. Landed in Slinger at 2:30 A.M. Stayed there over night." [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
