I enjoy being thought of as a writer, particularly as I have interviewed and written about athletes and people from the Cultural Center of OUR Universe- Portsmouth, OH.
Much of the time I spent growing up during the Depression and WWII years in P'Town, I felt myself to be the proverbial "urchin". I was of the Mound Park variety of Urchin- a poor, mischievous kid from the city. It was once deserving of being called a city and I don't want to demean any of the fine citizens there now who still contribute to the good culture which remains.
Frank Hunter, Blaine Bierley, Gene Lucas, and their benefactor, Tom DuPuy- do our city proud as they report events in "The 1955 Trojan Alumni Prints", a tabloid which has been a welcome monthly addition in our household here in Westerville, OH.
These people have added so much to our culture.
The 1955 class included my brother, George, and there weren't many PHS classes which didn't have one of my siblings, normally every other year. There were nine kids to Forest and Mary Kegley on McConnell Ave, as well as my half-brother, Ted Dunham.
If you don't subscribe to the "Prints", please avail yourself of a wonderful bargain in reading by sending $7 to Gene Lucas at 1419 Second Street, Portsmouth, OH 45663. You can send info for the paper to Frank Hunter, 450 bonifay Ave., Orlando, FL 32825.
