I still have a letter or two that Red wrote me. Half the typing was in red.

When I did an oral history with Red while in Baraboo in the early 70s and we got to his recollections of that July '56 date, he literally broke down and cried like a baby. I had to stop the tape recorder for 5-10 minutes so he could regain his composure but he insisted we go on about the Pittsburgh closing. He was the number one program vendor that season.

Red was one of those truly "unique and colorful characters," to say the least--see his highly amusing articles in Bandwagon which are as he spoke, not the stuff he wrote for White Tops which got edited and lost all his color and character.
