For people who attended Crawford High School or would have attended if they hadn't
moved -- or just have fond memories of San Diego in the '40s, '50s and '60s.

July 7, 2023

 

Cartoonist Harry Bliss finally created something I wanted to share.   
I guess even the Grim Reaper has to wait until the dog is done.



I am loathe to condone illegal behavior, but I'm glad a whole bunch of WWII veterans -- against orders -- kept diaries and took photos.  They're a godsend to modern historians.  And I'm glad Janice Valentino Reed Bonwell filched a menu from the Oscar's on El Cajon Blvd. and didn't tell me about it until we were out of the danger zone.    Click HERE to take another look.



I still can't remember who donated the Kiwanis Basketball Tournament programs from 1959 and 1961, but here's the second one.  Click HERE to see who played for Crawford -- and a whole bunch of other schools.



Looks like it's gonna be a gorgeous weekend for the first round of Over-The-Line.  My classmates Larry Dubbs, Jim Rupe, and Tom Whelan pose for a photo at the 1965 tourney.  Click HERE four a couple of other shots -- and a lengthy UT article from 1999 about Tom Whelan.
