"Recurrence of an old injury suffered 39 years ago and which was gradually creeping into his system yesterday forced the amputation above the knee of the right leg of Peter Pietroske, Sr., aged 73, a farmer residing on Route 1, 4 miles out of Two Rivers.
"The operation was performed by Doctors Moriarity and Shaw at the Holy Family hospital at Manitowoc and reports from there today are that the patient was getting along fairly well despite his advanced years.
"Mr. Pietroske Sr., who operates a farm north of the city had his foot injured in a culvert accident nearly 40 years ago. Up to a short time ago it gave him no trouble but of late infection has been spreading and in order to save his life it was necessary to amputate his right leg above the knee.
"He is the father of Capt. Peter Pietroske of the local fire department."
