Also John Melfi (Div Hq/
CCB) and Art Medley (Div Tns)
who changed addresses by head-
ing north thus spending the sum-
mer in their northern abodes.
Art sends a short note with
his change stating that they
had a wonderful winter in Flor-
ida and that Bill Holtmeyer
and Wally Hartman (Div Tns)
and their wives spent a few
days with Betty and Art.
Edward Seiller (Div Hq) also
moves and notifies us that his
new address is a retirement
home apartment.
Art Sweeney (Div Tns) in his
note asks . . . "Did Grace Guille,
widow of Bill Guille (Div Tns),
identify herself as the Red
Cross girl on the right in that
unidentified photo appearing
on page 28 of the June '89 Hell-
cat News????
A note attached to Robert
Boratko's (572 AAA) dues in-
forms us that Bob had a heart
attack in August, apologizes for
being late and that he is start-
ing to get things together once
again. The group wishes you a
speedy recovery Bob and sorry
to hear of this unfortunate in-
cident.
My good buddy that Smiling
Irishman, Bill McHugh (494
AFA) who was quite active in
the division having, in addition
to his regular duties, found time
to participate on the division's
boxing team and also had a
lead role in our great musical
"Hellcat Holiday", invades our
column this month with a nice
letter.
Bill writes ... I saw your
picture in a recent edition of
the Hellcat News and the more
off unit banner presented
Earl Norris A/714.

I look at you, the big gent that
you are, I truly believe that you
would have made a great
addition to the New York's
Finest. At least if we had been
in contact going back to those
days, if you were adverse to
going to the Delehanty School,
for the preparation, I would
have dragged you along, and
subsequently, the way you can
write, you probably would have
wound up as an inspector.
I have often thought that I
would ask you about Eddie
Yount, the great catcher on the
Hellcat team. Boy, how he could
hit and he had a rifle arm
which killed many runners
stone-cold dead on attempted
steals of second base. I had
heard that he came up to the
bigs after we were mustered out
of service, but I guess that by
that time, his best years were
behind him.
My question has to do with
the Milwaukee ball player,
Floyd Yount, who always seems
to murder the Yankees. I was
wondering if he is the son of
Eddie Yount, or at least a rela-
tive. If you can find, drop me a
line and I will ready for those
T.V. quiz games.
Bill closes his letter with kind-
est regards to all Hellcats and
hope all had a fine summer.
(I almost came in contact
with Bill but unfortunately he
had moved on from his position
as "Bouncer" in New York's
famous and fabulous dance
