Shortly after Bruce Mises died, his wife was baffled to find a box of old documents that seemed to defy his life as an unassuming businessman.

He didn't talk much about the past, and Joy Mises, his wife of 20 years, knew only sketchy details: He was born in Austria, had immigrated to the United States around the start of World War II, and he had lost relatives in Holocaust.

A perfect day for softball. Game conditions at Lefferts Park today were cool, sunny, and dry for the first game of the Crown Heights Softball League season. Players arrived early to stretch for their first outing of the year and took their places in the field and in the dugouts as their wives, children, and fans filled bleachers.
