How can I get rid of tiny whit specs in an old photo that I scanned?

BTW it was not easy to select the photo as my wife and daughter each liked a different one, as did I. But I ended up using Rambler's because of its contrast and colors. Old photos seem to be not black and white but other shades of grey with a yellowish tint. I don't know if this is from aging or if photography was more premative. I liked all of the ones that were submitted. Working with photo enhancement is quite an art. Thanks again folks.
