I've called that number several times. No answer. And that was before PQ.
I'm not about to call it now!

Where's Soonergirl and Tall Girl? Are they hiding?

Southside Girl (1973, CHHS) will be at the April gathering.....

[bowtieguy]

Hammondjam and nik4411........ yes, come and join us on the 24th! I'll try to make sure that everyone is on their best behavior, which is VERY HARD to do!! Seriously.... it is a good group of people that like to get together once a month to talk about growing up on the southside. Some people bring old yearbooks, newspaper articles, etc. to look at. It's just a real interesting time together... very casual. If you haven't already done so take a look at the main thread for this group.... lots of stuff there.

Hey.....I'm going to the reunion meeting too and then leaving and going to the Coit's shindig a little bit late.

Doug and Steve:
Are you going to be at Coit's on the 24th? I have something for you. I have a 30-page typed document that an OKC Southwestern Bell telephone operator wrote in 1933 about her 30-year career....starting when she was 15 years old in 1903. She worked 9 hours a day and only got every third Sunday off. Her paycheck was $9 for 2-weeks pay. She also talks about how things were in OKC back then, she talks about walking 2 miles to work on 10th street (a dirt road), running into Tom Mix out riding his horse, the state seal being moved from Guthrie to OKC, a trip from Wichita to OKC takes 12 hours, going to Delmar Gardens... lots of interesting insight into her life back then.

I forgot that I had this, but ran across it the other day and thought you guys might want a copy of it. It's a classic.... typed on an old typewriter.

[Doug Loudenback]

Thanks, SG26, yes I'm planning on being there. That is GREAT! Could I borrow it and scan it or is it too fragile?

My copy is a copy of the original, so it is in good shape except the typed words are sometimes faint. I'm making you your very own copy!!

I have another meeting to go to at 1:00, but I'm going to escape from it a little early and try to be at Coit's by 1:45 or 2:00.

No not hiding, just busy. We'll be there. Even if I can't stay, I'll be by there, with something for Soonergirl and Gen64. I hope Steve is there. I want his autograph!

[Hammondjam]

I'll have to miss this one because of an inescapable family committment but I'm gonna eventually meet you all. I was SURE hoping to be sipping on a rootbeer float by 2 pm.

Doug,
There was a John A. Brown in Shepherd Mall. N.W. 23rd! It's where Dillard's
was. So says Prunette.

Thanks, Mel. I'm going to read the paper today and am anxious to get your follow up, as we discussed.

Steve, if you are reading this, she gave me a copy for you ... which I may or may not let you have!

Just kidding about the last part.

Well, the person (I still don't recall who at one of the meetings) indicated one more in the vicinity of the Tower theater, plus or minus a few blocks of that location. I remain skeptical about that, but he (it was a guy) was pretty sure.

Does that mean you are not going to give Steve a copy?

[Doug Loudenback]

Depends on what he is willing to give me for it.

[Doug Loudenback]

Just kidding.

I'll be working on the little write-up and picture this week. Hope you enjoy the read!
