On Hand To Greet hubby Bill Russell of the Boston Celtics when he arrived yesterday at Boston Airport from St. Louis were his wife, Rose, and five-month-old son William Jr. Their Reading home was ransacked over the weekend and Bill is still nursing a tender ankle, but everything probably seemed all right when the Celtics Magnificent Rebounder saw this sight.
