I regret having to pass on the sad news of the
sudden death of JOE TRUCCO on April 28, as the
result of an accident on a construction site in
Lombard, 111. Joe is survived by his wife Ann and
seven children In Elmhurst, 111. I know that he and
his family will be continually in your prayers.
Received a note a while back from PAUL
FARMER, extolling the virtues of Albuquerque,
N.M., where he has staked a claim to continuous
sunshine. Paul is controller of the Bradbury and
Stamm Construction Co., which specializes In commercial
buildings. QUENTIN MISCHKE and JIM
RYAN are also local residents; Quentin Is assistant
vice-president of the Albuquerque National Bank
and Jim is manager of the AK'arado Hotel, reportedly
finest in the city. Thanks for the report, Paul.
Another banker of note is GEORGE FARRELL,
and my underground tells mc that as assistant
vice-president of the Mellon Bank in Pittsburgh,
George has been spending considerable time "do\\'n
under,'' seeking out investment opportunities in
Australia for some oi that Pennsylvania capital.
Elsewhere In the financial world, JOE PAGLIARI
was recently appointed treasurer and counsel of
the Percy Wilson Mortgage Company in Chicago.
As you can see, material is rather scarce to maintain
this colum's standing as otic of the highlights
of American literature. To assist in the achievement
of the coveted Pulitzer Prize for Class Column
Reporting, I would be most appreciative of some
input from the field.

It is with deepest regret wc learned of the death

in your prayers.
