Love, former State Senator, disagreed with him. He said that "modern medical science has extended the -span of life of the individual" and told Dr. Pilcher and the other diners that "a man of 80 today is no older than a man of 60 at the time of the Civil War" because of the advances in modern medical science. Senator Love referred to Commissioner of Elections John Voorhies in Manhattan, who will celebrate his 99th birthday on July 27. And he also referred to insurance which show that the span of life has been lengthened, to prove his point.

Of 327 one-time members of the post, only 50 now remain. The dinner last night was presided over by George R. Brown, the youngest member of the poLt and its commander, who is I in his 80th year. The average age of the diners was a little more than 84 years. tl I other taxi at Marcy ave.
