Halsted St. School, 1969


O.K. Don't ask me to name all the people in this photo... but our fearless leader, senior class president and reunion organizer extraordinairre, Mike Richard is sitting second from the right in the front row - next to Kitty's heartthrob, Danny Finklea.
In the third grade, I remember being in a cat-fight (men would pay to see that now) with Cheryl Weller, (second row, right)- even though we were really pretty good friends at the time. This picture was taken 5 years after the "main event" which lasted less than five minutes (I got my ass kicked) and involved a lot of scratching and hair pulling. It's no wonder - that was the year President Kennedy was assassinated - the country was in shock and things were tense!
Who knows what this teacher's name was? I'm thinking something like Mr.Diamato? (Or Mr. Roboto...)
