<p class="MsoNormal">Ken, thank you for this delightful story. Phil Townley was our RS-I teacher along with Marilyn Miller, now Oyler, back in 1968. And Joyce Townley was one of the gracious ladies in her colorful smock smiling and greeting and helping us
find our way when we arrived. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And you, Ken, (and Paige) were the ones who came to pick us up at the O’Hare airport in March 1969 in a blinding snowstorm. You told us to look for someone with a black beret with a wedgeblade on it and that Paige would have wedgeblade
earrings. I think we told you to look for someone with a black eye patch carrying a little red-headed baby. Also to look for someone looking “lost and scared” because we had never traveled beyond the Mason-Dixie line before.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody">Following my cataclysmic RS1 in October of ’67 [David McCleskey - Dick & Linda Alton were POs (Participant Observers)], I attended an SDS (Students of a Democratic Society) conference in Chicago
that December. I was a leader in the Canadian equivalent, SUPA (Student’s Union for Peace Action). After the conference, I visited 3444 Congress Parkway for a day. I was met by Tim Lush and taken on a tour. A significant part of that time occurred in the basement,
where the trash got taken out. There, I met a very fashionable women by the name of Joyce Townley. She was obviously a suburbanite, covered with a smock, but with a colourful scarf and blouse. What a charming woman! And there she was, operating a hoist with
oil barrels full of trash.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody">At that time, immersed in the 60s, as a committed socialist, agent of change and one engaged in many aspects of 60s politics and social change, I knew that part of the puzzle depended on the
engagement of sophisticated middle class folks if real change were to occur. It wasn’t simply going to be a revolution of the oppressed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
