Re: GPC Squash Determination
Gee -I remember when New England's Topsfield Fair and Hugh Wiberg had no
squash class and absolutely no interest in squash what-so-ever!
Gee- I remember reading somewhere ( I can't think of it right now) that
Hugh's largest was 100+ lbs until he had one that was accidently crossed
with a HUNGARIAN GRAY.
If what you say is true why was the hungarian grown?..........
