Completely forgot to do this for yesterday's edition. Even noticed that it hadn't been published when I checked my e-mail about 11:45 PM. Sure hope Maren wasn't holding the presses. [Published at 2:25am - look in your junk folder -Maren] Well, to get to it, yesterday was a daily double in Bomber Babe birthdays. I did know both of them from back in the day. I even worked with one of them at the North Star. She was in sales (concession stand/ticket) and I was custodial. Might even have seen her when I walked in 20 minutes before the final curtain. Think I had a class with the other one, but I can't remember which one. A tip of the ol' propeller beanie, a "Happy Birthday!" and a big mea culpa to Jan BONDURANT and Regina "Gina" WILLIAMS (both '54). Hope you young ladies had a nice time. -Bob Carlson, aka Mike CLOWES ('54) ~ Mount Angel, OR where we are experiencing semi-warm fall weather during the week. It may get damp over the weekend. ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: Tom HUGHES ('56) Re: Diamond 10¢ Store Re: Rec Hall -Tom HUGHES ('56) ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: Steve CARSON (Championship Class of '58) Re: Theme music Fred Smith from Pasco and created a live TV show, "Teen Time" in 1957 attracting talent from 300 miles around and our theme song was SWING SHEPARD BLUES". Great memories. To: Betti AVANT ('69) We would go to West Richland to swim the canal. -Steve CARSON (Championship Class of '58) ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: Jim HAMILTON ('63) Looks like another year has crept up on her like the sweater tights her mother made her wear. Time for a Happy Birthday shout out to another of the bedazzling ingenue from Miss Brown's morning kindergarten at Lewis & Clark. While she no longer wears the bat winged glasses and scuffed brown oxfords that made her so beguiling, she will always be one of my favorites. Somewhere in the last sixty odd years, she has tried to misplace the Margaret, but I've got an endless supply. Happy Birthday to Mary MARGARET Collins. -jimbeaux -Jim HAMILTON ('63) ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: David RIVERS ('65) Re: Jefferson dear Jefferson Hmmmmm somehow that doesn't sound right... may I first say I was greatly saddened to learn of the passing of a good buddy, neighbor and fellow Marine, Bobby "Tuna" MATTSON ('64-RIP), as I recall we sometimes lengthened the nick name to "Charley Tuna"... Rest in Pease and Welcome Home, Marine. Today I gotta celebrate one a the Haines kids of yore... A Jefferson kid who lived right down the street from me in my early school years... When I lived next to the Reed kids ('63, '60 '58 RIP and '55) (Where Kenny PETERSON ('64) now lives) I would hear this guy's mom calling him always using all three names... I don't think he was always in trouble, I think she just used all his names... I hope... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Harvey IRBY ('64) on your special day, October 6, 2017!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -David RIVERS ('65) ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: Terry DAVIS Knox ('65) To: Rosann BENEDICT ('64) Re: KORD Theme Song - Goodd-Bye by Benny Goodman THAT'S ITTTT!!!! THAT'S ITTTT!!!! Thank you, Maren Thank you, Rosann -Terry DAVIZ Knox ('65) ************************************************************* ************************************************************* >>From: Ken STALEY ('68) Re: KORD - I remember the drama teacher during my years there moon-lighted as a DJ. James Loss. I also recall that he imported what was then a top Japanese rock hit, and if the memory isn't too far shot... the Song (?) Group (?) was Sukiyaki. I recall several stores had soda fountains at one time. Newberrys - the RexAll drug next to the theater - Densow's on Wright. They all closed about the same time...and it had little to do with the bottom line. -Ken STALEY ('68) ************************************************************* ********************** HEARD ABOUT ************************** ************************************************************* Heard about this Bomber death today: Bill CRADDOCK ('61-RIP) ~ 1/28/?? - 10/4/17 [this link MIGHT work later today...
