(1992 April 5)
This is Jean's last year of teaching, and The Beep, daily campus paper, keeps saying something like, "60 more days, 59 more days, Jean," and Bill says she is annoyed.
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
