Albrecht spent many years as a performer on the circus circuit with his fa- ther, Leo Sr., and other mem- bers of his family. Albrecht, who currently drives a school bus for Stier Bus Company, got a hug from one of his pas- sengers, Kamryn Stier, while waiting for the circus to open last Tuesday. According to Carrie Traxler of the Belle Plaine Chamber of Com- merce, a total of 885 tickets Class of 1942 were sold (592 adults and 293 children). The majority of The Belle Plaine High School Class of 1942 held their 69th year reunion July 14 at Suzette’s the tickets sold were pre-sale. Restaurant.
