Does anybody remember spring lake off Sullivan road in College Park where we us to go swimming. The lake was owner by Bobby Waits family. I remember the signs around the pool keep your hands off the girls. First time I tried a one and half off the high diving board I hit the water on my back every body laughed and clapped and said do it again. The water filling the pool came from a very large spring just gusting out of the ground ice cold. Add on if you remember. Emmett you must have went swimming there. Ward
How does it feel to be 172 years old. Social security is going to have you wacked.
Think I worked with Dad with the CPFD for several years. Happy Birthday. Ward Lawton CPHS '54.
Roland maybe eleven of us will make it to Ninety. I'm closing in, you are a little closer. Maybe Coach Badgett can still use us. With you blocking for me we would be good for 5 yards every play. Big Bill Edison played tackle in front of me and on third and 1 or 2, I would run right behind him and grab his hip pad with my left hand. We made the first down 90% of the tine. You will have to compete witn Bill, he is already there. Ward '54
Happy birthday Doug. Who did you suppose to block on play #25? Ward Lawton '54.
Time to report for spring training, get your cleats out and and saddle soap the leather. ward

Happy Birthday Raymond, will have to call you sir, mine June '35. How does it fill to be 85. Man I walk a mile a day with 8 ladies inside a gym close by ages 65 to 87 years old. They get on to me now that their husbands are dead I'm their whipping boy. Love every minute, when they pass by me they say come on you old man. I walk along with younger ones. Sometimes I forget which gym I'm walking in. Some guy is trying to cut in on me I would cut his tires but I can't bend over that far I will fall. By the way who I'm talking with. Hope all is well with you and your loved ones. What was your assignment on #22 quick. Badgett is going to ask those things you better remember if you think you going to make that team. I just heard the bell to change class. Hear bells a lot now a days. Your Team mate. Ward '54

Happy birthday Shirley. Remember when you lived on Temple St. across from Peter Pan Park near the tennis courts. We lived right across the street from SR. The houses are still there in that block, you would not believe what they are selling for. Laura and I live in South Carolina, Benita, Barney and Melissa still live around Atlanta. Hope all is well.
