June 24, 2022


 

Summer's here and it's time to go to the beach!!


I've retrieved some snapshots I took at La Jolla Shores in June 1962.  Click HERE to check them out 


 

Tragically, on the first day after graduation the Class of 2022 lost a member when basketball player Woodlain Prudhome disappeared in the surf off Mission Beach.



Dick Cloward '60 recalled a similar incident when Glen Carraway '59 was lost while swimming off La Jolla Shores on April 15, 1960.  Click HERE to read more about Glen Carraway.




Turns out that 19-second Channel 8 video of Crawford in 1958 was followed by a 5-minute story done in 1978 -- and it's in color.  Click HERE to travel back.



Some years ago Bob Richardson '61 wrote about Aztec Villa, a portion of the old Frontier Housing where a lot of San Diego State professors and their families lived.  The recent publication of the 1950 Census may have muddied up his research.  Click HERE to take a look at Bob's original story -- and HERE to read about some changes.
