From: Larry Green (`55)

  A few things I wonder about if people remember: (1) 12 cents to get into a movie at the Liberty. Ten cents for admission and 2 cents for tax. (2) Saturday matinees at the Pasco theater with a double feature western, cartoon and an action serial. (3) Taking hay rides out to the sand dunes and playing capture the flag. (4) Playing summer league baseball with Em Morgan before there was Little League. (5) For people of the time, the Sweet Shop was just like on the television program Happy Days, and mentioned in a previous alumni response. (6) Fellows taking auto shop out at the Navy Base who flipped their car transmissions so they would shift from the left side of the column rather than the right claiming that way they wouldn't have to take their arm from around their girl friend. (7) Which, of course, required a "necking knob" on the steering wheel.

  This is the latest list of missing persons from our class. So far, we have not been able to locate these people. If know where they are or if you have any leads, please contact me. [Write to PHS Alumni On-Line to contact Patti] We want to make sure as many people as possible will have the opportunity to join us on August 9th, 10th, and 11th to celebrate 35 years of Pasco Pride! Thanks!

[There are nearly one hundred 1967 alumni who haven't kept the reunion committee updated with a current address. Due to the length I'm just including a link that will take you to the list on the alumni web site. - Paul https://phsbulldogsonline.tripod.com/missing_phs_1967.htm]
