[Dixielandjazz] OKOM in San Antonio

[Don Ingle]

Sorry that the t-bone dentist has hung it up. By the way, Chuck is a 
Michigangder by birth - from Bellaire, Michigan, where the brook trout 
swim and the morels are being picked as we type. Good guy, and a good 
player, so his horn will be missed.
If you see Bobby Black, the banjoist with him for a long time who lives 
there in the San'tone area, pass on my regards.
