Can You Spot a Bruin ...
Thousands of Miles Away?
In November '06, Richard ('61) and Dennie ('63) King cruised from Auckland, NZ to LA on the Seven Seas Mariner via the French Polynesian Islands.  Also on board was famed songwriter * Paul Williams (class of 58).  Once when Paul addressed the crowd, he spoke of living in LB and attending Wilson.  From the audience, Dennie clapped and made some appropriate show of Bruin enthusiasm.  They met up later and he eagerly jumped at the chance to be pictured on the world renowned Wilson '63 website.
(And thanks, Paul,
for writing this beloved song ....)

FROM FAR AWAY,
VICKY HERCUS CHECKS IN!
 
Here is that promised picture you asked for.  It was taken in our little town of Dordrecht here in Holland.  We are doing fine, as you can see --- the sun was shining that day!  It's not California weather here.  I do miss the California climate.  It's fun here too though, my house is over 100 years old and the neighbors' homes are 200/300 years old ... I have been on vacation for 30 years here.  Have fun passing the photo around, have a laugh on me!  Will keep in touch - TOT ZIENS - Vicky Van der Loos-Hercus  PS That's me on the right !

    Here's a fun pic (click to enlarge) of Mr. Chuka's Algebra class, sophomore year. Sue Williams has id'd several people, mostly from the backs of their heads!  Kathy Osborn facing camera, behind her Jay Corbett.  Sandi Kimball has head turned; Donna Senseney in front of Sandi.  Possibly Betty Rounthwaite behind her.  Sue is sitting by the blackboard with her hands folded, like the good girl she was (and is.)

    Hi all Class of 63 Wilson Hi,
     
    This is a picture of Barry Wood and Chuck Tatreau(Class of 61?) at Las Areas which is a little south on La Paz, Mexico in June 2007. This was after another successful day of drowning bait... I mean catching fish. I started with a small group of 8 and by the time we got there we had 23 in our group. Everyone caught fish including a 320 lb blue marlin. Chuck now lives in Northern Calif. and does a lot of fishing up there.
    I'm looking forward to the class reunion in Sept of 2008 to see again how everyone has aged (I mean how everyone is doing).
     
    Best Regards,
     
    Barry Wood
