I had Miss Kelly in the 7th grade at Fairfield in 1960. She organized a tour of historical sights in Ohio for our class. At the time, she had a broken leg but went on the tour anyway. Here is a picture (partial) of her on that tour. She is at the right of the frame and you can see one of her crutches.
