Jerry Donley (left) and Jerry Wojcik
A great column in the September issue of National Masters News, headlined “The Musings of an Aging Athlete,” carried an editor’s note describing the author as
Jerry Wojcik, the former owner of NMN. (Actually editor, I think.) The column began with the line: “I am now 82. When I get on the pole vault runway, I do not feel any different than I did 10, 20 or 30 years ago.” I wrinkled my nose at that, because Jerry is a thrower. Never knew of his vault interest! Good for him. But today’s email alert from NMN said of the article: “There is just one problem — it is written by
Jerry Donley not Jerry Wojcik. Second, in the table of contents, it says that in that section is an article by Gary Patton on Less Is More. Insult to injury! They are completely my errors and I am not sure how I even made them. My profound apologies to Jerry and Jerry, both dear friends and huge supporters of National Masters News.” Good mea culpa by publisher
Randy Sturgeon on his senior moment. We still love you, Randy.
