I tell the story that Ollie was born on 12/01/1941, Jim Moran (my brother-in-law) was born on 12/03/1941 and I WAS BORN ON 12/05/1941. Then the Japanese said ENOUGH OF THAT! on 12/07/1941. Carl Sillanpaa

Just got off the phone with Ollie and he repeated the above statement that you made. I have to say I enjoyed watching you and Ollie, also Fred Gove , Johnny Bartlett, Dick Baker and others

play basketball in the 50s.. Jim Moran was a good friend of my cousin John. Jim also married Rita, my first girlfriend.
