A bull crushed Lewis A. Gro
shon to death Friday morning on

was foreman of the farm for 30
years and was married to Mr..

igan State University. While
Nanny is at the Naval Hospital
on reserve duty, he and Sam have
been able to renew their college
ties, though we must say they
weren't wearing them Saturday
night. The boys went to the Uni
versity of Michigan together and
are making the most of this op'
portunity to visit before Nanny
leaves for a year in London at
the Lister institute, where he will
conduct a research program un
der the auspices of the National
Science Foundation.
The MorSes' overnight guests
last week were horses of another
color, namely, Trigger and Texas
Smith, the finest steeds ever to
visit Twinbrook.
(This sweeping praise is
roughly equivalent to my sons
admission that 1 am the incest
mother he ever had.)
Trudy's real guests were Mr.
and Mrs. Monroe Smith and their
son John, who stopped on route
from their ranch in Florida
which they are closing, to their
headquarters" in Putney, VT.
(The Smiths are the founders
of the Youth Hostel movement in
this country and of the Putney
School)
Since the Smiths are leaving
this September for years study
abroad, the horses had to be
brought home, and motels are
so sticky about little things like
that, so - the Morse's lawn is
green again. The Smiths are go
ing to take 26 students with them
on their tour which will take
them around the world and In
clude six weeks in Russia.
Malcolm and Trudy have just
returned from a slightly fabulous
European vacation themselves,
during which they danced with
the Folk Dance Society of Lon
don. Trudy says they dance much
the way we (the Twinbrook
TWirlers) do-uh huh. We think
it was nice of Trudy to say so,
and besides the British will never
know.
Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred Alden Wis
tied their daughter and son-in-law
Ruth and David Korb over the
weekend and took their grand
daughters, Gail and Janet, back
with them to spend the summer
at Narraganset Pier. With mas
culine disdain for the social adj
vantages of the pier, Barry and
Arthur elected to spend their sum-
mer here with the little leaguers
and do their swimming in the
pool.
School closed on Tuesday at
1920 am. and all the little art
students came home singing, "No
more pencils, no more books, no
more color consultants :. ETC."
