where were you in 1961?
Maybe you were in Levering, Michigan!
If you were, maybe you can spot
yourself in the photo below!
Then
again, you just might find yourself
in this one instead!
Thanks to Andy Campbell!
This
is the original 1961 "Honor Board!"
That is me, David Sapadin, in 1980.

Someone evidently picked up some
