Really like that new bus. Sure will get a lot of "eyes" as it rolls into Oxford, Dayton, and Indy along with the souther trip for baseball etc etc etc.
It's Xavier's second bus.
Anyone remember the red and white one donated to Xavier in 1958 by Thomas Wood after his Cincinnati Mohawks hockey team folded?
After a couple trips around the block, and a sputtering engine, plus high insurance costs, it sat for about a year in the football stadium parking lot.
It wasn't close to today's busses, more of the post WW2 kind. Maybe sat 30 people.
Don't really know who we pawned it off on, or maybe even gave it back to Mr Wood.
That was Baaaack in the Day!
