To the editor:
I had two preferred seats at the dedication of the new bridge. I am also a member of the Diamond Club.
I walked across the other bridge when it was dedicated in 1928. I was 6 years old.
After six-bypass heart surgery, I am doing real good.
I have a grandson who plays basketball at Scott City, and I go to all the games. I was also an all-star basketball player from 1938 to 1941 at Vanduser, Mo. I still like to shoot goals.
