1940: "Big Bowling match at Ollie Kinateder's alleys tonite between the North and South Side Mueller Potter Drug Stores. Well, the South Side Store wins three straight and also the total number of pins by 252. North Team: Elmer Salzieder, Leon Geiger, Laurence Churchill, Tom Gallagher, Fred Baumgartner. South Side: Art Mueller, Al Potter, Ed Fretchel, Ed Weisheipl, Roger Allmers. Rooters for the teams Rose Weisheipl, Naomi Mueller. I bowled 148-114-131. The girls left us in the middle of the last game. Walter Osterag is hanging around Rose, and takes her home. Maybe something is going to happen, or maybe it is just a date." [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
1955: "Deadline for personal income taxes both State and Federal today. Francis Lamb is in with our tax reports; all he needs is the checks. As I got to the store to go to work, little Donnie met me saying 'You don't wanna work, let's take a ride in your car.' Pretty smart for a 2 year old. He got his ride." [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
1994: Tristan Rae Potter, daughter of Jason Potter, granddaughter of Mark Potter, great-granddaughter of Don and Arlene Potter, great-great-granddaughter of A.E. and Theresa Potter is born.
