Wow. Interesting article indeed. I graduated from ULS and lived in Grosse Pointe for almost 20 years and I never heard of "The Tennis Club" myself!!!!
BTW, login passwords available at bugmenot.com.
although the photo caption indicates the photo is from 1968, the car looks like an AMC Hornet wagon, not available in 68. maybe they meant 1978?
I hope the Judge and Mrs. Smales are doing OK. I hear membership is down at Bushwood.

My favorite part . . . a delayed reward for patient readers:
. . . A handy conversion reference for those Northeasterners who don't know much about what's 'tween the Hudson and Santa Monica Boulevard.Bloomfield Hills . . . and Birmingham are a bit like a Midwestern and suburban version of the Hamptons. There are modern houses on out-of-sight estates. Grosse Pointe would be more like Nantucket but without scrimshaw.
Yes, Grosse Pointe is more of a traditional, "urban" suburb. It's somewhat of a model suburb if you are a new urbanist and believe in pedestrian friendly, walkable neighborhoods not defined by large sub-divisions.
