I am writing about the sports history of Ann Arbor High. Mr Adams was captain of the track team in 1951. I ran with Steve Adams in 1971, and Steve looked a lot like Fred, although I can't reach either of them. Do you know if Fred;'s son is the same Steve Adams who graduated in 1971?
Do you know if Mr Fred Adams is still alive?
