The scene of activity this morning was cen- tered in Walnut street be- tween Main and Washing- ton streets where booths were being erected for the sale of hot dogs, soft drinks and other things that will help swell re- ceipts for the club to pay off at least part of the in- debtedness on the club's beautiful new home on Rio street. — Sept. 26, 1924 90 YEARS AGO...

Well, try as I might to deny the inevitable, Sept. 28 will arrive. I am now officially en- tering my seventh de- cade. Also, as I men- tioned, I grok that there are people looking at 60 in their rear view mir- rors, most likely shak- ing their heads, thinking, "Come on Scott. Get over it!" Yet, I remind these nay- sayers that this is the old- est I've ever been. My wife, in attempt to be support- ive I presume, has been es- pousing, "Remember, today is the youngest you'll be for the remainder of your life." Hmmm… I don't know whether that's comforting or not. But, what can I say; she's a child in her fifties. She'll learn. So, I went to the doctor for a check up. They checked my weight ("You're lost a few pounds since last year." Yay!) and blood pressure ("We need to watch that." Sigh…) Then came my height. I'm going to be vulnera- ble here so be gentle with your judgment, okay? Most of my adult life, I've lied about my height, insisting I'm a towering 5' 9" when I'm actually a diminutive 5' 8". One might rightly won- der why that extra inch matters so much to my ob- viously frail psyche — and that's a fair question. Yet, the honest reply is I haven't a clue. Maybe it's a guy thing, who knows? Anyway, of late, with newfound ma- turity, I've finally come to grips with the reality that major league basketball is not going to come calling and have accepted my ac- tual stature. So, it's one of nature's practical jokes that I find out I've shriveled to five- seven and a half! "What's that about?" I asked the doctor. "It's normal." "Really? Can't I do some- thing about it? Stretch more? Hang upside down?" "No, it's age appropriate." That's a weird phrase. I've always considered "age appropriate" to define be- haviors rather than physi- cal traits. "So, anything else I should know about?" he asked, pulling up a chair. I pull out my written list (really) of the aches, pains, and concerns I'm experi- encing. After all, I only get 15 minutes; I'm going to get my money's worth. First on my inventory is a nagging ache in my wrist. He in- spected both arms, gently poking and prodding, and informed me, "It's tendon- itis, nothing serious." "What causes that?" "Probably just your age. If it doesn't get better, come back and we'll see what we can do." Next anxiety: my skin isn't so smooth anymore. There are bumps and blemishes popping up almost as rapidly as the hairs on my head that aren't vanishing are turning gray. I pointed out the more dastardly offenders. Yet, again, my fears va- porize. "Nothing out of the usual. It's not cancer and I see no cause for concern." Of course HE doesn't see any cause for trepidation, it's not his arms that have the texture of sun-dried to- matoes. "Is there anything I can do about it?" I asked. Surely, a doctor in the golden age of medical miracles has some sort of potion one can smear on and restore vital- ity and youth. After all, this is the future we foresaw in the sixties. I mean we don't have flying cars and food pills, but there oughta be something we can do about turkey-skin-arms. "Not really. It's age ap- propriate." Yikes. Again with that cursed expression. I didn't use it that much when I was raising my kids. So, I left his office; satis- fied that I'm in "age appro- priate" good health but still fuming about the changes I'm experiencing; a defi- nite reminder that aging is mandatory but maturity is optional.
