Palmer Stadium Lives in Lawrence, Kansas

Gregg, I have been avid reader of your accounts in the PAW for some time. Recently, you have been much on my mind because I am co-authoring an account of WPRB with Owen Curtis ’72 for our class 50th reunion book. My conversations with Bruce Elwell ’72 have been peppered with references to you.

Regarding your visit to Palmer Stadium, I have the good fortune to see a legacy of Palmer Stadium on the campus of the University of Kansas. Palmer Stadium was the inspiration for the design of KU’s Memorial Stadium (now David Booth Memorial Stadium). I think of great memories of Palmer Stadium every time I walk or drive by the KU stadium, which is located very close to my wife's (Anne D. Northup ’74) office.
