School Story

I remember Winsteads on Friday night after a football game ordering from your car over a radio on the menu that I was always careful of handling since I was afraid of electrocution. The waitress would bring your food to you on a tray that would fit on the window of the car. There were always lots of cars full of friends.

I remember the car rallies on Saturday afternoons. The school clubs organized them, I think.

I remember a magical autumn night, in of all places the lagoon at Swope Park. I think we made a bonfire though I don't remember the occasion. It went on all night long and into the morning.

I remember always thinking we were the only true Kansas Citians that counted - Southwest… Interscholastic League. And mostly not knowing or caring where Lee’s Summit or Raytown or Oak Park was.

Hires! thanks for the nice words re my football playin' days. I remember that parkview game film and there's me 20 feet away from the camera and 21 guys way down the field. wayforth and robinson played that over and over and over again! and i told them that they told me to stay in place. the reality was the play went away from me and i thought - why bother? Hah! and you are also right that the 68 team had some rough guys - you named them perfectly. but those guys were also protective of the juniors. the SE game was a heart breaker of course walking down as a team. but we got revenge our senior year!
sorry, i m sending you this individually but what with everyone talking about Jake and didn't want to be disrespectful. My memorys shot and i confused keith lippman '67 with Fritz zigler '66. Val Howard shared this with me a few years ago and i recently found it. you guys came down to mizzou for a party. see ya.

I found This composite at my mother's home today. It represents our first grade class from Hale Cook Elementary, 1957-58. Since there are no names associated with the pictures I took a shot at remembering. If anyone could help assist in matching names to our little faces it would be terrific.

Here's what I think is correct:

Top Row: Bob Bruegging [3] Frank Swyden [9]
Second Row: Craig Eisenberg [1] Alan McDermott [2] Andy Sackin [3] Jeff Chappelow [4] Ron Guth [5] Ed Martin? [6]
Third Row: John Morgan? [1] Mrs. Livingston [4] Laurie Snedden [6] Kim Sprinkle [7]
Fourth Row: Judy Joel [3] Nancy Thomas [7]
Fith Row: Karen Kaplan? [4] Tiffany Willoughby
