Well... not much you can do for mainly 2 reasons:
1. Sharpness
The picture seems very soft... It's probably because of the age.
2. The 'texture'
That's a really challenging task to remove, I would say you might need to
edit the picture almost pixel level and might need to re-paint some parts
I am not a retouch expert but this is what I was able to do with the
picture:

Subject: OT Picture fix help
A good friend of mine has a scan of an old family photo in pretty
rough shape and asked me last night if i could help fix it. I just got
the scan a few moments ago:
http://www.caughtinmotion.com/picture0001.jpg
and had a quick look. I'm not even sure i know how to go about
touching this up. I told he i would look and at least try.
Any comments or help.
She tried to send a large Tiff file but on dial up the 24mb photo
would not load so she just sent me a 2.5 MB jpg.
Any help is appreciated.
Dave
