Pam, What year did you go to Manuel? I was in the Class of 1965. Back then they had "Red & White Day" before we played Male on Thanksgiving Day, but that whole week was a long celebration. Also, I was born in St. Joseph and so was my youngest.

The easiest landmark which is not there anymore was St. Joseph Infirmary. This neighborhood was also known as "RAG HILL" because so many of its residents were extremely poor. Also around this area was Swiss Park, where I looked to go as a kid. Even though I have moved to another place, I still drive around the old neighborhood just to bring back memories. Wow, just reading this brought back memories. My youngest daughter was born at St. Joseph's infirmary. I went to Manual with kids who lived on the streets you mentioned. I lived closer to Manual so they tore down my old neighborhood during Urban Renewal progress to make UL more parking spaces. Can you imagine tearing down those old beautiful homes in those tree lined courts to make parking spaces? Pam
