                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.

Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

Toast to the 191 7 Class
Hail, to the CLASS OF SEVENTEEN!
The best that Roanoke has ever seen.
T hey have wi t and charm and grace enough,
Good looks and sense; that's not a bluff.
There's CAMPBELL :ind COOK in leadership famed,
And POWELL a.nd BOWERS of intellectual name;
REPASS and GORDON are the stars of beauty,
MAL PAYNE and E . SCOTT. they do their duty;
There's E. DAVIS and HAM E RSLY. efficient and neat,
KOONTZ. the mus'. cia n, whose melodies sweet
Ring throughout old Roanoke Hi gh,
And make us forget that teachers are nigh;
And also GIBBONS and PRESIDENT STONE.
Whom girls admire but leave alone.
MOOMAW, MEADOWS and FRANKLI N arc basket-ball stars;
BENING, BURNS and AVENT are useful at large;
BAKER and SMITH, the jesters merry,
Have hearts that are ligh t and ever cheery;
HASH is the actor and leader of cheers.
ERB 's the wee bright one, young in years;
THORNTON and CHESTERMAN are "li11lc but loud ...
When you gel with them you're wi th qui te a crowd.
There's SPALDING and P RI CE of gridiron renown,
RANKIN is the star football cen ter of the town.
KERLIN and QUINN are th e clowns of the Class.
Their antics are ever a joke and a farce.
J. KENNETT, the debater, can a lso write themes,
They're worth a hundred, the teacher deems.
FAY YOST and C. STONE are managers fi ne,
BRUNER and HILL ho ld down the art line,
HARRY YATES. ath letic star, plays on all learns;
ATKINSON and HORNBARGER please Miss Critz, it seems;
MOTTLEY and SNAVELY are good all around,
And AMOS leads the Class in talking renown.
So. SEVENTEEN CLASS of R. H . S ..
Herc's to you - lo your happiness ;
Here's a health lo your future,
And a health for your pasl;
May you love and remember
And be true lo the last
To the memories of R. H.,
And friends still in the strife,
So, .. good speed" lo you, classma tes.
On your journey of life.

"/ /o\Jc /he tranquil solitude.""

Quiet Jennic-tha t"s her reputation, al least. it seems to be with the
teachers of R. H. S., for her report usually shows I 00 for deportment. She can talk though. and does so in school-but what she says
is usually worth list ening lo.
Promptness is another virtue. She
has not been late during her High School course, though we once
hcnrd he r say she wished she had been five minutes Inter. Ask
her any time if she has "rillen her E nglish and she always says,
00, for her grades
·· l"ve got something." 11 musl have been somelhing. 1
are usually good. School is not her only in terest by any mean s, for
ah I there is another. Jennie says she is going lo be a teacher. bu t
we have our doub ts about her leaching long. \ Vha tcver she docs we
arc sure she will succeed as she has in her school work. and we w:sh
her happin ess in whatever she under takes.

Francis, whose ability as an artist is well known. is a good-natured.

to some sketch. The Senior Cla;s made a wise selection in electing
him /\rt Edi tor of this volume of ACORNS OF ROANOK E, In hi'

WILLIAM WARREN DICKERSON
"A mon after /1is onm heart."
Warren, whose wavy golden locks are a fami liar sight about R. H.
S., is one of the most studi ous members of 1he '17 Class. His popu·
larity among the fair sex is ev inced by his fondness for coming t.o
school every morning wi1h a bevy of damsels. F urlh e r proof of 1h1s
weakness is .shown in his conducl while portraying Shakespearean
ro!es, for wh ich he has a great ability. We do not know what pla.n

happy and careless freedom will soon be cur tailed and more 5e riou s

EVELYN LENA BOHN

"Happy am I; from care I'm free."
Lena is one or the jolliest girls in the school. yet you have to know
her lo underst;rnd hC'r. She often "speaks her mind" (but no one
pays any allention to her). Lena is a star pupil in Civics and aq;ue1
by the hour on suffrage; she is also in the tardy rac.:. I or one morning when she came on time. one of the pupils exc laimed, "\Vhy.
Lena, how in the world did you gel here at fi,·e minutes to nine?"

HARLEY ELSWORTH ERB

"A sl1or/ man may cast a long shadow."
This is cer tainly true about Harley. Although he is small of sta tu re,
his radiating inRuence is felt in more ways than one throughou t the
Senior Class. H e has won a place in the hearts of all his clanmates
by his ever readiness to lend a hand f'ither in mischief or help, for
he never troubles about low grades, as he has none. Harley is a
most worthy exponen t of the "Calico Club" ? ? ? and an aspirant
of Athletics; he is also rather active in literary work. having proved a
great help to the Jellerson Literary Society. He has the reputation
of bringing good lunches lo school and al or before dismissal is always surrounded by a crowd of "irresistible bums.'' After furth&lt;'r
college prepa1ation, if Harley allacks the business problems of life
as vigorously as he did hi s Shakespearean notebook, he will arrive

"A /ii/le /coming is a dangerous thing,

learning with compnrntive ease, and has neve1· had lo take an Exam
until it was forced upon her in the Senior Year. "Beth" plays the
piano well. and has plenty of time to take and teach music aside from
her school work. W e wonder how she does this. And she find J
time for some other "diversion." too. for \ve nolice that she wears
calmly a S. H. S. pin rather than an R. H. S. She is ' full of fun"
and h&lt;'r mother enjoys the greater part of her humor, for she often
says. "Oh I Mother thinks I'm awful." Elizabeth is undecided ns
to the future. and we can hardly go so far as to forecast her occupation. ? ? ?

she always manages to gel all her perfect pages. Gertrude has quite
an ' 'arti stic" temperament and is Art Editor of the Class. Although

"Far may we scare/, before we /inJ

ce ivcd specia l mention from Miss Critz, having made 92 on her
English exam. Nevertheless Carolyn has a lways found time for
athletics. Ju st what the Girls' Basket-Ball Team would have done
this season without such an efficient member is hard lo imagine.
Th,1 1 the 191 7 team has made the best record in the annals of R .

than Captain of the team. Callie's weak point in school was Botany.
but she ahvllys 11ot along splendidly in Zoology and her hobby wa~

She's full of fun and joviality, although she is a litt le reserved. She

for Roanoke College. 'Tis said a certain young fellow spends all

''Happy am I, from care I'm free,

Ruth is one of the jolliest girls of the school, yet you have to know
her to understand her. We can hardly believe her when she says
she is going to teach next term. but she is making plans for thi s
and we all wish her success. She is very loyal to old R. H. S.
and may generally be found near the "Royal Rooters" nt the games.
The old saying that red hair signifi es a high temper is not en tire ly

\Ve now come to one who is probably the liveliest member of our

him in an angry mood. He has distinguished himself as a Shake·
spearean actor, winning great fame under Miss Critz, but do not
let it impress you that acting is his only occupation. for he is a
Latin scholar of no little fame. besides being an ardent member of
the Paradise (pair o' dice) Club. Of his propensities and proclivi.
tics we need say nothing for they arc known to most of us. H e docs
not say much about the fairer sex, although he sometimes delights in
"tripping the iight fantastic toe." Clement is always ready and willing to do you a good turn, a cheerful-spirited, good-natured. sociable
fellow and a friend to all. Have we not said enough? A. A.; B.

This is our lit1lc country girl. though from her looks and ways you
would not think it. Evt.:ry morning she comes in on the train from
Bonsack. walking slowly to school just as though the classes did not
begin at 9 :00 n. m. Linda is the tall and fair one who is going to

Senior Class History
~VEN a casual visitor on chapel morning would be impressed by the
~ ?ignity .~nd earnestness
the pupi ls in the .central row. T his group
ts the Class of 191 7, the largest senior class Roanoke Hiah
0
has ever had.
Y es, it is wonderful to be a Senior after all those trying years of study
which the " C lass of 1.917" had to pass throu gh. and we are glad that so many
had the d etermination to push onward no matter how hard the battle.
W e entered the High School in 1914 and had no more privileges than
any other "rats." We had to endure the smiles and gibes of the Sophomores
who, having just escaped from "ratdom" themselves, felt all the more that we
should have our share of humiliation. H owever, the Seniors. with their encouragin g smiles, welcomed the new adventurers upon the path o f knowledge.
Th ey were the leaders and we moved on as if fascinated by their dignity and
great store of knowled ge. We passed, with these glowing lights ever before
us, th rough the Sophomore and into the Junior C lass. It was then that we
began lo realize that we were children no longer and that much depended upon
us. W e were organized as the "Class of 191 7" and became leaders in many
of the school activities. But then came the fall of 19 16, when we entered
the school as Seniors ourselves- Oh, how glorious to be S eniors ! W e felt
exhilarated at having reached that place of vantage where we could viev,, the
other pupi ls who followed us. I am sorry to say, however, that during the
fall \•le did not feel so kindly disposed toward the "rats," for some persisted
\
in thinkin g they were Seniors and seated themselves quite coolly in the S enior
row. Of course, we might smile at them sweetly when in their proper places,
but we could not tol erate an intrusion into the S enior row. Now we are
S enior A's and troubled by rats no longer, being assured of our exalted position. W e have worked hard and although we have not all been shining stars
we have tried to do our best. Many o f the girl s and boys have held high

offices in the literary societies and clubs and some have been very active in
athletics, showing an abundance of school spirit.
And now as our high school career has almost closed we do not regret
the time spent there but rather feel sorry over the thought of leaving it and the
teachers, who have worked so patiently over us, trying so often to make us
understand the importance of study. There are many roads which we may
travel through life and we know we must choose one, but we leave dear old
Roanoke High reluctantly, wishing that those who follow may have as happy
and successful a school life as ours has been.

My Memory Book

X

T was a day about in the year 1950, when I was ransacking the
ancient chests in the garret, that I found my old Memory Book. It
brought back to me sweet memories of my younger days and friends,
and I immediately extracted it from the heap of discarded rubbish, so that I
might look it over in my leisure hours.
That night as I sat before the glowing fire, in the twilight, I thought of
the book and went for it. Resuming my seat I blew the dust from the back
and opened the volume. On the first pages were souvenirs, clippings, letters,
etc., which reminded me vividly of the happenings and good times at dear
old R. H. S. I passed over these hurriedly as I was anxious for recollections
of my friends and members of the 191 7 Class, which I recall I had collected
in the years following my graduation.
The first familiar names I saw were those o f Branch Spalding and Mal
Payne, in a newspaper clipping which gave them special mention for bravery
and galla nt service in the war that broke out in 1925.
Opposite from that on the same page was another clipping, giving the
names o f Misses J ennie Ash, Anna Baker, E va Bondurant, Myrtle Brumfield,
Lyne Semple, Edith Rowland, Elsie Wright, Elizabeth Sanders and Margaret Thornton, who had patriotically enlisted as R ed Cross nurses in this
same war.
The next souvenir was a scrap of moving picture film, pasted in, and after
lookin g closely I discerned it to be a farce comedy. At the bottom were the
few words, "Fay Yost, the greatest comedian and rival of Charles Chaplin."
Turning the page I found a card announcing the engagement of Miss
Claudine Avent to a young gentleman from Arkansas. Pasted below this was
a stamp from Africa- I ·wasn't positive, but I think it was from Harley Erb.
who had gone there as a missionary to the natives in the jungles.
Across from this was a newspaper clipping describing the inauguration of
19 29, giving the members of the inaugural committee. Those of my acquaintance were, G od frey Arnall. Mary Hill, Minnie Wortman, Massey Newcomb,
Madolin Davis, Margaret Watkins, Alfred Davis, and Irvin Wells. Turning to the left-hand corner I found a letter from Edith Davis, relating to me
the details of the most magnificent inaugural ball in the annals of history, which
she had attended, and of the old friends and acquaintances she met. Mademoiselle Oujure (Frances Quarles) . the world's most artistic dancer. gave a solo

dance preliminary to the opening of the ball. Hattie Childress, Willie Leavell.
Edna Young, Kathleen Baker, Dr. Walter Wood, and Hon. Robert S tone,
Secretary of the Interior, had also danced during the evening. The rest of
this page and the next were covered with attractive souvenirs of dances and
parties, but I could not recall them, so I turned over, and the first thing which
met my view was a picture of Philip Powell with an inscription underneath,
"Prominent Lawyer, recently appointed by the President to the Supreme
Bench." Below this was a very humorous cartoon from Cartoons Magazine,
by Francis Bruner, and on the next page I fou nd a program of a famous play
by James M. Barrie, with Paul Hash and Vivian Hutton, the great character
impersonators of the age, playing the leads. On the left-hand side was a small
box of wedding cake tied fast and I remembered it to be that of Rosa Bening
and Earl Hornbarger.
Over on the next page was a pamphlet announcing the long list of actors of
the Famous Players Film Company; the familiar ones were, Clarence Kennett,
Lena Bohn, Norma Wright and Reuben Staton, who had all attained fame as
"movie" stars.
Glancing over, my eye caught sight of a note. On opening it I found it was
from Emma Cook, inviting me to be present at her first appearance in grand
opera, which was to take p!G&gt;.ce that season.
Slowly turning over, for I was living over the past, I saw at the top of the
page a small picture of the champion typewriters of America. I recognized
many of my old friends among them- Evelyn Woolfork, Blanch Hubbard ,
Anthaline Franklin, Marie Nolte and Arthur Huffman. The last thing on
the page was a newspaper clipping announcing the election of Mary T. Goodwin, Ph. D., president of Vassar College.
I turned the page but the next was blank, I had come to the end of my book
and was somewhat disappointed at the abrupt conclusion of my sojourn into
the land of memories. However, I had enjoyed it so completely that as I
closed the book and laid it upon the table I gave a sigh of great happiness and
contentment.

The first High School Bible Class, in Virginia, was organized in January, 191 7, in
Roanoke. There are two classes, and they meet every afternoon in the Y. M . C. A.,
one at 1 : 30 and one at 2: 30 p. m. The work is a ll outlined, which makes it easy now,
but when the State Examination comes- goodness, well-we hope we'll all get through!
The lessons are very interesting, and we enjoy them, while they are also most helpful to
us. We hope that more such classes will soon be organized in our State.

Junior Class Hist ory

(!)

HEN. in 19 15, the Freshman Class of Roanoke High entered upon
their High School career, the years intervening between that time
and the hour when those same Freshmen should be accounted Juniors
stretched out like an eternity. After looking at the Algebra, the French and
German, and the other Chinese puzzles belonging to those who had reached
that imposing (?) position in life, the way thither seemed not a flowery road,
but a thicket of locust bushes, whose thorns seemed like the claws of some
terrible monster, waiting to seize any one that attempted a passage.
A year soon passed by, however, and these Freshmen, having advanced
to the grade of Sophomores, were then transferred to the High School Building. T hey were promptly dubbed "rats," and "bucked" by the overbearing
Juniors and Seniors. They limply resented this treatment, and believed in
their hearts that they were the equals, if not the superiors (such is always the
idea of the youthful) of the proud aristocracy of the school; but still the aristocracy were magnanimous, and forgave.
And now the year 191 7 has come, and this same Freshman Class has
arrived at the degree of Juniors- the future Class of 1918. It is one of the
largest in the history of the school.
Among the members of this class are some of those claiming the highest
honors in the life of the school- such men as Harry Loewenstein and Francis
Huff, of football fame, and Clifton Gleaves, who distinguished himself on the
track team last spring.
The Class, now linked together in a strong chain of friendship, is ea rnestly
looking forward to the time when they shall have achieved the station of
Seniors. Realizing that this cannot be attained without unremitting effort, they
are laboring on toward the goal; and they wish to their friends, the lower
classes of the High School, the same success that has so far crowned their own
efforts. They also wish to express, through this medium, their appreciation of
the untiring labors of beloved teachers, realizing that without their efforts, the
pupils would not have reached this present position.

Sophomore Class H istory

X

N the beginning of the spring term of 1916 a crowd of boys and girls
found their way from Intermediate to Roanoke High Sch ool. The
reader must remember that we had been Seniors and would soon fal I
to the low estate of "Rats." The boys were greeted with paddles and had
to run the "gauntlet," "cuckoo" and sing a few songs to their elders. T he
girls got off easy with the loss of a few hairpins and the dreaded name of "Rat"
~houted to them between every period. In a week or so our initiation was over
and we settled down to high school life. Time passed swiftly and the May
exams soon arrived. After these, vacation, but in a few months we found ourselves back at school. It was then that the other part of our class came from
the Intermediate and they suffered the same as their classmates who had come
before them, but took it bravely and decided to get even with the "new comers"
in J anuary.
A few weeks after each term has begun a Junior or Senior always comes
along and asks the " R ats" if they don't want to join the Athletic Association .
Many do so to show their "school spirit," although it costs a few jitneys. Some
of the girls joined the Martha Washington Literary Society, and the boys the
J effersonian. When- the time for athletics came, many of the boys went out
for basket-ball and baseball, while others made the track and football teams.
Soon after our class had entered into the common interests of the school
we fel t like a part of it and no longer like gathering ourselves up in a corner
and dreading the "natives" of the place.
And the time will pass with studying, school games, holidays, and vacations until we shall reach the top step and be called "The Senior Class of
R oanoke High."

Freshman Class Poem
We, the F reshrnan Class of now-a - day,
Are pushing, striving hard on the way;
For the prospective C lass of nineteen-lwenly
Are going lo show you all a plenty.

"Hard Study" will our watchword be.
We'll show you then that ll&gt;C arc n1c.
Rah! Rah! we say we shall be gay.
For in this class the corner slone we lay.

Of knowledge and truth and life of fame.
And on life's page we write our name;
For we are sighting years lo come,
\Vhen our lulors shall say, "\Veil done."
Then we'll go forth the year that's later.
Inspired for the thing that's higher and greater;
And if our goal at la sl we reach,
Our prayers will be for those that leach .

It has been hard lo study nations;
And all the Lalin conjugations.
It was very important lo learn declension.
And very hard lo pay allenlion.

We've struggled through our Math exams
A nd stormed a l all our "English Ma'ams,"
When asked lo write a synopsis,
Or read again the "Thanalopsis."
We've learned lo cook without a book,
And if our teacher did nol look,
We'd smack our lips, our hands on hips,
And from the spoon we'd lake our sips.

In rnanual training the boys arc gaining,
They'll make home snug when it's a - rainin'.
In basket-ball they're hard lo beal,
And now the champions they can meel.

Bui. tell the truth, behind our books
There are not always sober looks;
For even though we're hard al work,
Young Cup;ds in the corners lurk.

Our teachers mi ld. with faces of care,
Smile when he {Cupid) takes them unaware,
And really now, "t is hard lo find
One that is sellled down in mind.

And teachers, scholars, great and sma ll,
Will march in " twos" al the last call.

Rooms of R. H. S.
To dear old High School ""e go each day,
And through its building we wend our way
From room number one to room number ten,
And then we wend it back again.
Room twenty-two is always chill,
Here we learn Shakespeare to our fill.
Room twenty-four is such a bore,
With Layman and his wars galore.
R oom twenty-three is a sweet reposeHere we are Frenchmen, likewise Dagoes.

In room eleven we have quivers and shakes,
With fear of those horrible toads and snakes.
Room number twelve is calm and refreshing,
Here we get "Amo" and all its b lessing.
In room thirteen you're in the hands of fate,
You're lucky to get through by the hair on your pate.
In room eighteen the Math stars shine;
Always be sure to be on time.
We climb the steps with weary feet,
But thirty-five is a safe retreat
From work and care and war and strife,
From all the teachers and the ills of life.
But after all we hate to part,
Because these rooms have touched our heart;
And with a look to the world so new,
We bid you all a fond adieu.

Rap! Rap! Rap!

V

O I believe in ghosts? Well, perhaps not, but one time, at least, I

h ad a curious experience that seemed to point to the existence of
something supernatural, or at least unexplainable. If you wish, I
w ill tell you abou t it. You may not believe it at first, but I assure you that
everything happened just as I will tell it. You will have to judge about lhe
ghost pa rt yourself.
A few summers ago, I spent a month camping with five of my friends.
There was onl y one drawback to our camp site. It was about half a mile from
the swimming hole, but it was near the spring, w hich was more important.
One afternoon whil e we were all in swimming one of these summer w ind
and rain storms came up before we knew it. Of course, we didn't mind getting wet but we remembered that all our bed-clothes had been left out to sun.
So it behooved us to hurry back to camp before the storm broke or we would
of necessity sleep under wet blankets that night. We dressed almost quicker
than it takes to tell it, yet before we had even started for camp the ,,·ind had
begun to b low and the rain to fall. B oth became harder, so we realized we
were too late to save our blankets. Still we hurried on, a nd the rain changed
lo one of the worst hail storms that I have ever seen. The lightning, too,
began to flash about us. Then. not being able to stand it any longer, we
rushed into a house that was near the road. It proved to be an old Colonial
mansion, long vacant, about which we had heard strange rumors. However
we were not afraid o f ghosts, so, pushing open the door, we entered. A strong
gust of wi nd immediately slammed shut the door, leaving us in inky darkness.
Outside the storm continued with unabated fury. Insid e we began to hear
strange noises. Somebody yelled; then he discovered that rats running across
his feet had caused his fri ght. This seemed to make us rather ashamed of
ourselves, for we had all been somewhat disturbed by the noises. W hen, a
little la ter, we heard other noises, that cou ld not possibly have been made by
ra ts, we decided to investigate. From overhead seemed lo come a steady rap,
rap, rap. The storm was still raging outside. We could stand it no longer.
Something had to be done; so we decided to find out the source of this strange
noise.
As I sa id, this was an old house and a wide stairway led to the second
story from the room we were in. Up this stairway we crept. six abreast. as
no one wanted to lead. Even the creaking of the old stairs couldn't drown out

�86

the other noise- the rap, rap, rap. When we reached the second story the
rap, rap, rap was more audible, but seemed to still come from overhead. Exploring. we found there was a ladder leadin g up to the attic. Not being able
to go up this six abreast we almost had to give up our plan, b ut we finally
decided to draw straws to determine the order in which we should mount the
ladder. The unlucky boy w ho drew the shortest straw and had to go up
first, almost rebelled, but we finally prevailed upon him to lead the way. E very
step up the ladder seemed to make the rap. rap, rap more aud ible. H owever,
we slowly mounted and at last all of us were in the a tti c. R ap, rap. rap
sounded quite plainly.
The attic was one large room with a slanting roof. or rather cei ling, and
a large chimney at one end. W e decided that the rap, rap. rap came from
behind the chimney. So we went cautiously toward this end of the room.
All the while this steady rap, rap, rap worked on our nerves a nd seemed to
push us, w1th an invisible hand, away from the chimney. W e came to it,
however, and heard rap, rap, rap coming fro m behind it. W e d ecid ed then
that the noise came from a black hole back of the chimney. By this time we
were ready to find out the cause of this strange and weird rap. rap, rap or die
in the attempt, and I am not sure but that most of us feared it would be the
latter.
Not a soul had any ma tch es and the hol e was dark as ni ght. not sil ent.
however, for from it sounded holl owly rap, rap, rap. We tried to make the
hoy who had led the way up the ladder put his hand in the hole, and try to
fin d out what caused this rap, rap, rap, which every minute seemed to grow
stronger and more gruesome. H e flatly refused and said we would have to
draw agai n. Of course, everybody thought that one of the oth ers would be
the unlucky one, so we agreed to this. T hus a second time, spurred on by
the rap, rap, rap, we drew straws. Then again we almost left w ithout findin g
cul the cause of this mysterious rap, rap, rap. I know, for I was the one this
time who drew the shortest straw.
However, after a great deal of persuasion, and incidentally rap, rap,
rapping, I fina lly consented to put my hand in the awful black hole and try
to catch the cause of the fearful rap, rap, rap. Feeling much like I judge on e
feels who is going to be executed, I cautiously extended m y hand until my
whole arm was in the hole. The rap, rap, rap sounded in my ears like a fun eral
dirge. only louder and more awful than any I had ever h eard. F or a while
my gropi ng fingers encountered nothing but empty a ir. Then suddenly I fe lt
something. The rap, rap, rap continued . I snatched out my h and a nd jerked
out something with it. In my hand was- " a piece of wrapping paper!"

The Snapshot

X

T was near the latter part of September and colleges were opening
for their term's work. Boys and girls were returnin.g to their respective schools; some would enter the Senior Class. some the Junior,
some the Sophomore and some the Freshman.
The day was bright and fair, and Ned Mathews was standing on the
platform of the little station of Burnsville bidding his friends good-bye. This
was his Senior year at Yale and they were all wishing him success. J ust
before the train came in one of the boys discovered that Ned carried his folding kodak in his hand, and asked the reason why he had not packed it in his
trunk. "Really," replied Ned, " I meant to do it, but in my hurry I overlooked it until my trunk was gone, and rather than not have it with me, I
decided to carry it in my hand. You know there is so much pretty scenery
around school that I like to have it with me."
"Be sure to take some pictures of some of the buildings so you can show
them to us when you come back Christmas," said Ann McFarland.
" I certainly will do that," promised Ned .
The whistle of the train was heard and hurried good-byes were said. As
the train pulled up to the station Ned sprang to the steps and soon disappeared
from sight as he entered the car and the train moved slowly on.
Ned walked through several coaches, and then entered the Pullman car.
There, to his surprise, he found his roommate, Billy Marshall. T he boys
were delighted to see each other, as they had been parted for three months,
and they began to tell of their summer vacation. Billy had attended a house
party at the seashore and Ned had been on a camping trip in the mountains.
While they were talking of their pleasures, the train stopped at a small
town and a girl entered the coach, where Ned and B illy sat, and taking a
seat across from them, began reading a magazine which she had in her hand.
Ned and Billy renewed their conversation but in a somewhat lower tone.
and every little while each would steal a glance at the girl across the aisle.
All that they could see was a girl dressed in a dark brown suit with heavy fur
trimming, a big velvet hat and littl e bronze boots to match. Her hat was tilted
on one side and this prevented the boys from seeing her face. In a few min-

utes the porter entered carrying a little satchel and a brown sealskin coat and
placed them beside the girl. The satchel was turned in such a way that Ned
saw two initials on the end-"D. P ."
"I wonder what ' D. P.' stand for," he whispered to Billy.
"So do I." replied Billy ; "maybe it is D ean P reston, or Drucilla Powers,"
suggested Billy.
"Or it might be Dorothy," answered N ed, "but I don't know what the
last name could be."
" I surely would like to see her face," said Billy.
"So would I." responded his friend.
''I'll bet my last quarter she is a college girl. Ned."
" I would not be afraid to bet mine, either, on that, old chum."
" Ned. it seems that she is never going to turn her head this way, so I
guess we had better look at the landscape as we are passing.''
At this both boys laughed and immediately became occupied in looking
out of the window.
When the train was entering a small town where there was a girls' college,
the boys' attentions were aroused by the porter's appearing and getting the
young lady's coat and satchel and they saw that she was going to get off.
'T ve an idea." whispered Ned to Billy.
"What is it?" whispered back Billy.
" It's this," said Ned, "when she gets off the train I am going to place the
kodak in the window and when she is on the platform, snap her picture. See?"
" That's a fi ne idea, I never had thought of that, Ned."
The train slowed down and the girl left the car and when upon the platform, she turned to see if the two new men who were sitting opposite her on
the tra in were still there. Ned snapped the kodak. J ust as he looked up his
eyes met a pair of bi g blue eyes which belonged to a girl '"'i th wavy golden
hair, pink cheeks and a rosebud mouth. All that N ed could do was to stare.
In a n instant the girl's gaze dropped and she turned away with a picture before
her of a ta ll dark man with shining brown eyes and thick bl ack ha ir.
Upon reachin g co llege Ned had his film developed to see if the snapshot
of the girl he had taken was any good, which, much to his delight, was the
very image of her. H e took the picture, put it in a little silver frame. and
placed it upon his writing desk, where he could look at it when his mind was
troubled over his studies.
The first term passed rapidly away and Ned had many dreams of the
little girl whose picture occupied an important place upon his study desk.

The Christmas holidays were approaching and Helen Mathews had written
her brother that Ann McFarland was going to give a house party Christmas
and was going to have several of her college friends. "Won't we have a good
time?" wrote Helen.
Ned did not spend much thought on the prospective house-party guests;
all that he thought of was, " If only I could see that sweet little girl whose
initials are 'D. P .' "
On Ned's return home for the holidays, when he passed the station where
the girl got off he looked to see if he could see anything of her, but she \-Vas
not there.
When he reached home Helen told him that Ann was going to give a
dance that night for her guests and they were invited. When Helen and Ned
arrived Ann came forward to meet them and took them around to introduce
them to her friends. She introduced them to five, but one girl was missing.
"Where is D orothy?" she asked.
"Oh, there she stands talking to Mary Jones," spoke up one girl. Ann
approached her and said,
"Come, Dorothy, I want you to meet Helen Mathews and her brother
Ned."
D orothy turned and shook hands with Helen, then she extended her hand
to Ned. As she glanced up she saw the same big brown eyes looking at her
that she had seen on the train. She also saw that he recognized her. The
color rushed to her face and she turned away. But other guests were arriving
and soon the dance began.
Ned looked at his program; the third dance was with Dorothy Page.
Ned danced his worst during the first two dances because all the time he was
thinking of the third dance.
At last it came and he hastened over to Dorothy ' s side.
"Shall we dance or sit this dance out?" he asked.
" I prefer to sit it out," answered Dorothy.
So Ned found a nice quiet place beneath some tall palms and then they
began to talk. Ned told her that he had recognized her as the same girl he
had taken the snapshot of. and that he still had the picture. She laughed and
said that she had recognized him, when she met him, as being the same man
she had seen on the train when she was on her way to college.

At last the Christmas holidays ended and the young people returned to

their colleges. Ned the happiest of all, because Dorothy had promised that
he mi ght come down to the college to see her.
In April, Ann wrote to Helen:
My dearest Helen: Ned has been a frequent visitor to our school since
Chri stmas and next fall you are going to have one of the sweetest little sistersin-law in the world. D orothy tells me that it all came about by his taking a
snapshot of her as she stepped off of the train last fall on her way back here.
You know, Helen, he told us he was carrying his kodak because there
was such pretty scenery around Yale- well, it seems that Dorothy happened
to be the "scenery" this time.
Your loving fri end.
Ann.

A Dream Faculty Meeting at R. H. S.

X

T is the day for the F acuity meeting and Mr. McQuilkin is sitting at
the desk in the conference room with his hair neatly slicked back.
puffing on a cigarette and looking over the F acuity roll. Mr. Turner
comes in with a prize-fighter swagger, slams his hat down on the table, clears
his throat and sits down. He remarks to Mr. McQuilkin in his rumbling voice:
"Well. I guess I have got to stay in this place about an hour, now."
About this time Miss B oard saunters into the room, clad in a green smock,
with two beauty spots on her cheek and long earrings dangling from her dainty
ears.
She is closely followed by Miss Critz, who is chewing gum in perfect time
with her steps. Sitting down she turns to Miss Board and taking her in with
one glance, remarks:
"Gee, kid ! You are dolled up for fair to-day. Where'd y'u get the
classy ear weights?"
Miss Board responds, "Aw ! come on, fifty-fifty with the gum."
They are interrupted by Mr. Phelps hurrying in with a bright reel necktie
on and accompanied by Mr. Layman, who walks very stately, and perceiving
Miss Board, lets out a long, low, exclamatory whistle and seats himself.
The debonair Misses Lovelace, Carlisle and ] ennings enter the room together, all showing that they are growing fatter every day.
The next to enter is Miss Hayward, looking strong and husky as ever.
T hen Mr. Parsons walks in wi th Miss Mabry, to whom he is talking very
interestedly.
After Mr. Beale comes in, arm-in-arm with Miss J ohnston and Miss
Funkhouser, Mr. McQuilkin rises, shoots his cigarette across the room. and
calls the meeting to order. About five minutes later Miss Board and Miss
Critz finish their conversation and Mr. McQuilkin calls out the name of
Earl Hornbarger.
Mr. Phelps, talking exceedingly fast, remarks,
"I have nothing against Earl Hornbarger."
"Nor I," from Miss Board.
"Nor I," from Miss Critz.

And so they decide to give him a hundred.
The next name is Harry Smith.
"Harry's deportment is beautiful," says Mr. Turner in his gruff way.
Miss Critz is acquiescent and they agree to give him a hundred.
Mr. McQuilkin then peevishly calls out, "Clement Quinn."
Miss Critz, sticking her chewing gum under the chair, exclaims, "When
it comes to deportment, nobody's got anything on that kid, Quinn."
They iikewise give him a hundred.
Mr. M cQuilkin makes several more vain attempts to get somebody's deportment cut. when Mr. Phelps remarks, "I have no cu ts for any one to-day."
They all express the same sentiments, and the meeting is adjourned, Mr.
Turner going home to his poor little wife sooner than he expected.

In times previous to the former year much difficulty was experienced in getting the students to the games, consequently the small showing of school spiri t. In order lo stimulate
greater interest and to bring greater crowds to the High School games, the Athletic Boa1·d
conceived a plan by which every student in High School mighl attend all home games
free of charge. A committee was appointed who canvassed for a minimum budget of
$400.00. Thanks to the generosity of the students and to our outside friends, a sum
was raised amounting to $448. 30, sufficient to meet the expenses of the Athletic A ssociation for the w hole year. Passes were immediately issued and distributed among the students, insuring to each free admission to all home games for the present session. We
think that this plan has proved highly successful and hope it will be continued in the future.

Salem High School . . ... ... 0

Our football team played its initial game on the Roanoke College grounds
at Salem, defeating the Salem High School team I 0 to 0. While we proved
superior to our opponents in every period of the game, it was a hotly contested
battle and the Salemites offered a stubborn resistance to our tearing line plunges.
Several times we closely approached our opponent's goal and were unable to
score the first half ending with the score 0 to 0. However, in the second half
we r.:..O up ten points to their none; Captain Gettle putting a place-kick between
the uprights and later plunging through the line for a touchdown. On the
offence the three backs, Loewenstein, Gettle and Yates, did stellar work in
advancing the ball throughout the game, while on the defence Rankin and
Gettle were especially effective, the entire line being strong and impenetrable.

Christiansburg High School . . 0

The following Saturday we met the Christiansburg High School eleven at
the fair grounds. We found our opponents' line weak and succeeded in defeating them 20 to 0. They were able to advance the ball but twice for creditable gains, the big tackle, Rangely, skirting our ends each time for fifteen
yards. Our goal line was never endangered and we found no trouble in
making gains when they were needed. The entire R. H. S. back field proved
invincible to the Christiansburg' s gridders, while Rankin's defensive work was
particularly good.

We then met Cluster Springs Academy, another heavy team, out-weighing
us fifteen pounds to the man. R. H. S. surprised everybody by defeating them
34 to 0. We got the jump on them when first whistle blew and throughout
the game our goal was not endangered. Our men were successful in every

detail of offensive work, fonvard passes included, while our defense was unmovable. The firs t half ended w ith the score 20 to 0 a nd in the second we were
as strong as ever. Our end runs were more effective than any other method of
ground gaining and the entire back field starred. The honors in the line were
about evenly distributed as every man did his duty.
F aucette proved the best
man for C. S. A.
R oanoke High S chool ..... . 13

Blacksburg High School. ... 20

Friday, November I 0th, we journeyed to Blacksburg, where extreme overconfidence a nd lack of team ·work resulted in a d efeat a t the hands of the
Blacksburg High S chool eleven, the score bein g 20 to 13 . In the entire first
half we were completely outclassed both on offensive and d efensive being una bl e to gain a nd finding the Blacksburg backs hard to stop. In the second half
we came back rather strong and succeeded in scoring two touchdowns, w hile
we were still unable to hold our opponent ,...·ho scored a nother touchdown in
the third quarter. With about two minutes to p lay in the last quarter the
Blac ksburg man picked up a fumbled ball on our seven-yard line and raced
across the goal line with it, game ending with a score of 20 to 13 in favor of
our opponent. B ock for Blacksburg ' vas the star of the game, while Y a tes
did stellar work in advancing the ball for R. H. S.
Roa noke High School . ..... 20

R a ndolph-Macon Academy . 3

The next week we covered ourselves w ith glory by defeating the heaY:V
R. M. A. squad on their home grounds by the score of 20 to 3. We kicked
off lo our opponents who advanced the ball to center of the fi eld a nd marched
~teadily fr om there to our twenty-yard line, where we braced and held them
for three downs. Connor then dropped back a nd put a well-e)\ecu ted drnp
kic k over the crossbar, making for R. M. A. three points. From then on we
completely outclassed them in every phase o f play. They were utte rly unable
to stop our sweeping end runs, whil e our line plunges were as merciless. We
ran up twenty points while they didn't make another first down. M cConnell
showed grea t speed a nd ability in circling their ends. whil e the rest of the back
fi eld d id stella r work. The entire line was a wall of defence a nd the team
as a whole worked like a machine. Warren was easily the star for R. M. A.

all they had, to the last second of play. In the first quarter we had trouble
getting started; handling a new ball we fumbl ed several times, but after the
first five minutes we gave L. H. S. a pretty good idea of what our intentions
were, and we carried these intentions out. A few minutes after the second
quarter started we succeeded in scoring a touchdown through their line after
steadily advancing the ball from our territory into theirs. All during the first
half the goal was kept in danger. We were as strong in the last half as in the
first and on a well-executed forward pass to Yates we scored another touchdown from easy striking distance of their goal, making the score 14 to 0. We
really beat them worse than the score shows. They didn't earn two first downs
throughout the game. All the breaks went against us as we were penalized
time after time and lost several good chances to score on account of fumbles.
The entire back field starred on the offensive while Meador, McConnell, H.
Yates and Rankin were the R. H. S. strength on the defensive. This game
put the Hill-toppers out of the race for the state championship and gave us
the titl e for the western part of the State.
John Marshall High School .. 3 3

Roanoke High School .. . . . . 10

Saturday. December 2d, we went to the fair grounds to battle with John
Marshall High School of Richmond for the championship of Virginia, but
our battling was in vain. Soon after the starting whistle blew it was plain
that we were up against a team superior in weight and speed. Our boys scored
first on a place kick by Captain Gettle, but our opponents found littl e trouble
in scoring a touchdown soon after and continued to drive their plays over us
almost at will. After recovering a J . M. H. S. fumbl e on their twenty-yard
line we pushed the ball over for a touchdown in the second quarter. When
the first half ended the score was 20 to 1 0 and when the game ended it was
33 to 10, as they made two touchdowns in the last half while we were unable
to score again. Hock and Meador at the ends did stellar work, boxing in
all end runs. Rankin played his usual good game while no other player on
the team displayed any of their former class. Care for J. M. H. S. was invincible at quarterback.
A lthough we ended rather disastrously we had a very successful year,
winning five out of seven games and winning the championship of the western
part of the State. We defeated, decisively, two old rivals. Lynchburg High
and Randolph-Macon Academy. We also trounced Salem, wh o could
hardly be called a football rival of R. H. S., but whom it is always a great
pleasure to beat.

In the initial game of our season we met the girls that hail from P ulaski

Two weeks later we went to Blacksburg where we met with a great surprise, being defeated by them 26 to 5. Our team was in a bad condition and
was handicapped by the size of the floor. None of the team played up to the
standard. Holt starred for Blacksburg High by her accurate shooting, scoring 24 of the 26 points.
T his was the most successful season the Girls' Basket-ball T earn has ever
experienced. We won four out of five games, defeating two teams that were
never defeated before, B lacksburg and M arion. We owe our success largely
to the excellent coaching of Mr. Meissner, to whom we wish to express our
sincerest appreciation.

Captain Meadows slipped on the gym floor and we feared the wreckage of
the building.

The 1916 track team kep t up the good reco rd established

Journey of Studious to the Delectable
Heights of Success

@

TUDIOUS graduated from the Roanoke H igh School and forthwith
decided to continue his journey en the path toward knowledge and
thence to the D electable H eights of Success. There were devious
routes to this lofty pinnacle and so Studious was grievously "put to it" at the
very beginning of his journey to decide on which road he would travel. At
last he decided on a route that lay through the d emesne of Hampden-Sidney
College and the post-graduate labyrinths of the University o f Virginia.
Studious started on the first part of his College Career with a joyous heart.
At firs t his buoyant hope kept his eyes above th e trees and he did not see the
many rocks that lay in his path. Many a time he stumped his toe but laughingly passed it by as an inevitable consequence of haste. H e received his first
jolt \·vhen he came to the end o f that year. Inattentive he traveled o'er the last
few rough rods marked "Exams" and did not see the sheer drop at the end
call ed "Partial F ai lure." He precipitated himself o'er it.
H e arose and saw a Cross-road that led back to the World from whence
he had come. It was short and pleasant. S o he was meditating on following
it when a Benevolent Student and an interested M ember of the F acuity took
him by the hand and told him to assay the rest of the journey a little more
cautiously than the first.
A ga in Studious set forth on the upward path of Knowledge. Here he
found it rough goin g for he must surmount barriers of stone such as Etymology
of H omeric Greek and Analytic Philosophy. H ere he found many sleeping
by the wayside. Studious was strong of body and intell ect so he soon found
to his great d elight that he was Head of his C lass. He now adorned a brass
plate w ith the words "President' I 8" inscribed thereon. At last he approached
Lhe College Domain and the K eeper o f the Grounds placed a mark on his
head thus: A . 8.
Studious looked back over the road he had traveled and up at the new
one through the University. H e thought that it was "a day's work," so he
decided lo L
ake a Vacation. H e went out and lay on a luxurious bed called
Society. When he awoke in the morning he started to get out on the wrong

side which would have hurled him into a yawning chasm called Matrimony.
At this time an old friend, Bachelor, told him of his mistake and Studious came
back into the road of Knowledge.
He now started through the paths of the U niversity. They were almost
indistinguishable among the tall trees. The guards along the way gave
meager directions. But Studious was filled with enthusiasm and followed his
nose. He commenced with nature and studied the plants and animals not for
their organic relations but their community life. He wro te his treatise on
Ancient Greek Cavo~relievo . Then the mark on his foreh ead was changed
to M.A.
The rest of the journey was up a twisting and winding trail. The goal
was in plain sight but could only be obtained by persistent climbing. Many
perished by the wayside. Immediately Studious clothed himself in a Rowing
Cape of Poetry and spread it in the Breezes. These Breezes were called
Editors and the .fiercer ones, Critics. They would tear any weak fabric from
the backs of the struggling authors and hurl them into Oblivion. But in
attempting to pull Studious's cape from him, a Wind Critic carried him
through the air and despairingly dropped him. To his great amazement
Studious fell, unhurt, right on top of Mt. Success. He declared to the admiring World that it was a Windfall.

A '11 oman"s Curiosity
I wonder who those people are
That live across the way;
I wonder what their business is.
A nd how they pass each day.
I wonder who she is that lives
Upon the upper floor,
And if those children both are hers,
If she be rich or poor.
And who is she who always wears
That deep-dyed crimson sacque,
Whose face as pure as marble gleams
'Neath hair of raven black?
And who is he ";th whitened locks?
And who the maiden fair,
\ Vith roses in her rounded cheeks,
And sunlight in her hair?
I wonder if I always will
Go wondering on this way,
Or shall I get acquainted,
And know them all some day?
Know '"'ho they are and what they have,
And how they come to be
The tenants of the house that stands
Right opposi te to me.
And why-but there, I must arrange
Inside that house to see,
Oh. I shall die, I know I shall,
Of cuiiosity.

has proved himself quite nn actor as he took the leadin~ part:; in

"Bill" pays little attention to the fair ladies since he thinks women

this work is. for one may think it his studies; but let that be corret"tccl nt 011cc, it is his f:irmin~. as his plan is lo lake the course in

she is 11cvcr ('?) lute. Lily has a great talent for writing paragraphs,
as ;\l iss Crit7. has often praised them; so we feel su re that if she continu es to write thus she will be a famous author unless she chnnges

Selma Hayes and Effie Ha~· Thomas figured prom i 11e11 l l~· 011 l he

It was surprising, the number of friend!:&gt; we came across. "·c
were especially glad to see Kathl een Laughon :ind Clad~·s Pu ll who

the usual specimen.
The next part of our trip was made without a slop un t i1 \H' reached
Philadelphia. \i\T attended a lecture and &lt;:·njoyed it inrn1&lt;'nsely in

spite of the fact that the lecturer was I\ foe .Jennings. I don' l recall
the subject of h er talk because I didn't hear much of it. 'Th&lt;' lady
in front of me had on a wide hat with the most elahornle plumage
I e\·er sa w. (1928 was the year that frathers WC'rC' so the&gt; rnge, you

'Ye r esumed our journey and made fe"· s tops of nny import a nee.
The next day we reached X e\Y York. It is hard to tel l what we
did first. I remember meeting Odell LaYinder. and she showed us
around. _It. grew very tiresome, though , the wa,Y Oclt•ll was
always pomtmg out some of her work. She had been unusually
successful as an interior decorator, and we couldn't stop at n pi&lt;'shop that sh e hadn 't done over the interior. She and Ernestin&lt;'

A Comedy of E rrors
NE day when Napoleon was going to his \Yol'k h e passed
through a forest and saw a Fox. Behold! \\'hat a peculiar
one! It had ''bite spots and Lavinder stripes. H e slal'ted
t o Amble(r) after it when he thought it was best to ha ,.e some
assistance and called, "Harrison, come here," hut it wns too late
for he saw the Fox leap into a Pond near by and S\Yim across. Il e
jumped into a boat and casting the Painter loose he stood at the
H elm and Preston in his pursuit ; but Great Scott, D enison carne
out and almost Cooke(d) him. ~apoleon began to l\Iusc on I lie
good l\,I eals he would ha Ye when he eaugh L l he Fox and he decided
to m ake H ayes. \Yh en he landed he put his Bl'indel h:C'rr in lhe
chase and together t hey ran, when lo! he hcal'd the rin ging of n
Bell which was tied to a Beahm in a Rice field and he stopped. .-\
Bishop , who \Yas ringing it, came out and rebuked him saying.
" Do no t Rusher Fox, for it will make y ou a Bitte rman if it hi l&lt;'s
and there is no Cure." This ga,·e )[apoleon a Payne and all hough
he continu ed to Laugh-on a~ if amused he turned his foolsleps
homeward, murmuring to himself, "Can11-a-d:1y he (~oocl-wi11 &lt;'Yl'l'~' ­
thing I do is Goen wrong?' '

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

GREETINGS

The messenger from the rose brings love
The messenger from the pansy brings thoughts '
-,,~~ But the messenger from the Jonquil
'
"·
Our Senior Class Flower,
'
Brings a cup full of "Luck-Best Sort."
As each of these flowers brings a message to you
Our"AcornsofNineteen" bringsa message too:
'
Just now,as Easter chimes ring joyous rhimes,
And yellow jonquils you're plucking;
May "Nineteen Acorns" find you home
When at your door they're knocking.
Greetings to you, kind Welcomer
and Friend,
These Sincere Messengers will then extend;
A wish that our efforts and labors may
lend
Some pleasure and fun
Which our "Spinner" has spun
From the threads of our thought
So long o'er wrought.
The grind of the time
Was not so sublime
While the Heights we attempted to climb
To hail to you these ''Greetings
true I''
But wait - let us whisper,
As would a spring zephyr:
'"Be to 'Our Weaving' a little kind,
Ge lo our flaws a little blind."
'

Evolution of High Sc.hoot
'113) OANOKE

HIGH SCHOOL spent its first session ( 1891-92) in the
J. P. Mauzy as principal.
The only teachers which this school had at that time were Mr. Mauzy
and Miss Cora M. Board. The twenty-three pupils who were enrolled at the
beginning were all girls. During this year the enrollment increased to fortyfour.
At the beginning of the second session ( 1892-93) a third instructor, Miss
Zada K. Wyant, was added as teacher of
English. The school enrollment increased
so rapidly during this period that Commerce
Street School was not large enough. So the
High School was moved to "The Carriage
Factory," on the corner of Church A venue
and Henry Street which had been fitted up
for school purposes. It was here that the
third session opened. The first diplomas
were awarded to seven young ladies at the
end of the session ( 1893-94) .
In September, 1894, just one day before
school was to open, the building with all
records of the school was entirely destroyed
by fire. The School Board was so energetic
that not one day was lost and school opened
next day in "The Smith Building," corner
w. E. PARsoNs, PRESENT PRINCIPAL
of Salem Avenue and Roanoke Street. The
enrollment continued to grow. In 1897, a fourth instructor, Mr. E. R. Shank,
was added. On May 19, 1898, the Academy of Music was used for the
first time for commencement exercises.
In 1898, "The Smith Building" was sold and again High School was out
in the cold. T his time it went back to starting point. Commerce Street S chool.
In 1898. Miss Zada K. Wyant resigned and Miss Dora Trent took her place.

In 1898, the present High School building was erected at the corner of R oanoke Street and Church Avenue and was dedicated on February 22. 1899,
by Jr. 0. U. A. M. At this time the Business D epartment was added with
Mr. Thornton H. Lodge in charge. In 1900, Mr. Lodge resigned and Nliss
Jaynette Traynham then became the head of the Business D epartment. From
1901 -1905, Mr. Harris Hart was principal. At this time Mr. S. G. Anspach
and Miss Florence Williamson were added to the faculty. In 1900. the
School Board allowed the principal to establish Literary Societies lo meet
after school hours. Also in 190 I, the Chemical D epartment was pul in and
Mr. George W. Russell was placed in charge. On November I, 1900, the
principal requested the Board to give the school two bookcases for I 00 books
to be collected by the Literary Societies. T hus began the library. On F ebruary I, 1
902, Mr. George W. Russell died and Mr. Wm. 0. Case was
elected to fill the vacancy. Mr. Anspach resigned Ju ly 26, 1903. and Mr.
J. R. Lake took his place. At this time the Modern Languages were introduced and Mr. A. G. Williams elected at the head. In September, 1903.
the Board issued a warrant for $1,280.00 for improvements in H igh School
and a room was added over the vestibule and the attic remodeled. Mr. D. W.
Persinger was principal from 1905 to 1909 and Mr. B. Fitzpatrick was principal from 1909 to 1912. At this time Hi gh School was again enlarged by a
new addition to the building-eight rooms including study hall.
It was during the principalship of Mr. D. E. McQuilkin ( 1912-1917)
that Spanish was added to the regular High School course. In 1910, the
first copy of "Acorns of Roanoke" was issued under the leadership and
guidance of Mr. McQuilkin. It was likewise under the director, Mr. M cQuil kin, that the Student Committee was organized. This body has done much
in upholding the proper morale and ideals for the school. Jn 19 12. the "Lee
Junior High School" was built and it now houses the first year Hi gh Sc hool
students.
When Mr. McQuilkin became City Superintendent in 1917, he was succeeded by Mr. W. E. Parsons as principal of the High School. Thi s year,
1 19, through the untiring efforts of Mr. Parsons and Miss Board. with the
9
help of some members of the Senior Class, a course in Bible S tudy was put
into the regular curriculum.
During this year the School Board decided that High School would be
better off with a new name. So, henceforth, it is known as J efferson High
School.
At present, there are employed in the Senior High School twenty teachers

with an enrollment of five hundred eight pupils. High School already has a
record of which the citizens of Roanoke are proud. Every one is looking
forw ard to that time in the near future when there will be built a new High
School to meet the needs of the pupils and teachers. With this in view the
prospects for the school's future are brighter than ever before.
No records were kept until J.900 and the following shows the increase in
the enrollment since that date.

Class Poem
Long, long ago, n•hen High S chool b egan,
ftfl e all lenew 'tll! as a means to an end.
Th e pupils studied with all their might
And passed on lo us their quic!e insight.
The'J) handed down the honor and fame
Which R. H. S. still bears on its name.
Th ose firs t :youn g graduates of R. 1-1. S.
Handed dollln lo us only lh al which n&gt;as best,
Years have crowned :years since those early days.
Each pupil found success C)1ery one says.
They have morleed and pla:yed,
A nd names lh e:y'11e made;
The:y had 11 0 limitations
B ecause of firm foundation s.
Roanolee High is a schoo l none d ef]}.
B ecause those pupils built a reputation high:
The classes each :yetzr have lived up lo the name,
A nd pupils, each and all, have d one the same.
U ntil n&gt;e com e to lhe class of '/9,
Which will be the besl of all, I ween,
This :year n1ill surpass
Each R. H. S. class.
"For n1e' ve llJO r!eed while we worleed,
And pla:yed while we pla:ycd,"
Our duty we never sl1irlred,
So f or this n1e're repaid.
Still I ho/Jc somethin g /'1&gt;e learned
B ecause a rest all S eniors hm1e earned
Before they begin on "Life's Long Way ."
Th en, in no one place they' II stay;
Som e, them selves, w ill teacl1ers be,
Others will marry an S. A. T. C.
M an:y will lo collc&gt;ge go ,
And the rest n1ill wander lo and fro.
But all our thouphts U be the same,
Ji/l
f!Vhcn me recall R. H. S. 's name,
A nd we'll ne'er as :yel
Those d ear times f orgel
Because Roan o l~e High

A Senior's Retrospection
[I;;:J 0-DA Y. as we stand on the threshold of graduatio n, conscio us of h av r
ing obtained the first objective on the long road of ed ucatio n and yet.
fu lly aware of the many more such objecti ves tha t remain lo be achi eved,
we become reminiscent of our Senior year. A nd, as we think back, we appreciate that while we have not retained the fuln ess of mere schol a rly knowl edge,
we have learned and applied permanent, practical lessons from exp e ri ence.
Our daily association with our classmates unconsciously st rengthene d and
broadened our individual character by combi ning such traits as se lf-reliance,
loyalty and sincerity with poise, self-confidence and optimi sm.
In our last year there has been exhibited a great spiri t o f coopera tion ,
impelled, perhaps, by a desire for service but more probably by a realization
that all too soon we should be separated and that we had better make the
most of each golden minute.
Ours was a rare opportunity to witness the decline and fall o f militaristic
autocracy, and now to be able to see the dawn of peace in th e near futu re.
It is inevitable that we, as inmates of a world recently torn w ith wa r,
suffering and dealh, should be affected in some degree. The Great War has
opened new vistas-given us nobler and worthier ideals, a keener perception
of life's purpose, and a broader conception of religion. Through o ur va rio us
war relief organizations we gained an understanding of the meani ng of sacrifice, self-denial and affliction as well as the joy that comes fr om he lping a n d
working with our fellow men. W e caught the true spirit of the g lory o f d eath
for a righteous cause, of the unflinching belief in a futur e better Ii fe, and fi nally
we were made heirs of everlasting principles and ideals for whi ch the w hol e
world bled. Because of this heritage our ideals were raised lo a hi g he r p la n e.
And, now, we begin to look forward lo the accomplishment of ou r ideals.
It may be that they will never be fully attained but in the very e fforts put
forth towards achievement, we confirm our gradua lly growing ability to surmount obstacles.
In after years we shall in all probability recall our High School days w ith
a great deal of pleasure, not unmixed with a tinge o f regret, but throu gh a ll
recollections the great outstanding fact will remain that our Sen ior yea r has
fulfilled the promise of previous schooling and points onward to hi gh e r goals
and nobler desires.

JOSEPH JULIAN BAKER
"For on easy goer he has no equal."
Julian was one of us for the first three years of our history but
enlisted in the S. A. T. C., at Roanoke College. a t the beginning of
his fourth year. He was muste red out of the service at mid-term and
again joined us. His sterling qualities and unsurpassable joviality
have won for him a host of friends. He is a proficient dancer and
courtier; nevertheless, not averse to work. He has his pleasures and
enjoys the frivolities of life, but can study if he finds he has to, to
pass on an examination.
(Ask Miss Carlisle.) He likes math in
all its forms and has taken the entire course offered a t High School.
He expec ts to a tt end V. P. I. next year and we wish him mu ch
success and predict that if he tackles the tasks of life as he tackles
his studies he will not only reside but will preside in the Hall of
Fame. A. A.; ]. L. S.; R. C.
ADA DORA ARTHUR
"To lc110TJJ her is lo love her.

One must kn ow Ada before they can love her, for her nature is
deep She has made a good record in high school. and among her
fellow stu dents. H er favorite study. Elocution, has been a grea t
success. When some one needs .a person to reci te at any social affair.
they always ca ll on " Ada" and she is ever ready with a willing hand
and helpful smile. Ada is very fond of friendly quarrels but somehow she never offends. for those lovely eyes hea l fast . She thinks
twice before speaking, but when her mind is once made up for the
right . it very seldom can be changed. Her greatest troubl e is keep·
ing up with her books. When you see some one with dark hair and
large, dreamy blue eyes wanderi ng around over th e study ha ll. don't
forget Ada has lost her books. She expec ts lo en ter W est Hampton

from years in duty spent. M. \V. L. S.; A . A.; R. C.; Treas. M.

JOHN DABNEY CARR
"He trudged along. unlenowing what he sougl1t,
And whistled as /re went for lac/( of thouglit."
This is "Johnny" all over, for he seems to laugh his way through

has an abundant supply of chewing gum especially in Chemistry

And if any one mentions "eats" a1~ound J ohnny, cakeJ

VIRGINIA BOULD IN
" She::. soshubblc c:: a bas/eel er l(illcns."

Although good-natured she has her own opinions and is not afrnid to
s tand by them. She is 3 friend lo every one she meets here as well
as elsewhere. Every morning as she calmly walks down Senior aisle,
fifteen mi nutes after roll call, Mr. McDonald says, "Miss Bouldin,
you're late." She makes the same remark to pupils and Faculty as
well, "I nm you know and I mean to tell you so." Virginia evidently likes French and is very often seen chatting with Professor
Viaud. Not only does she excel in French, but as an essayis t she
lays M.icaulay in the shade for they say she has "literary ability."
Off at school (?) she intends to take English, French and Domestic
Science and if then her burdens are too heavy, she will drop all but
French(?)! H ere's hoping she won't be swamped with work! 11

bothered." \Ve have never seen her worried and she is always ready
for fun and meanness. She would go serenely and happi ly on even
if she were going to die the next day, and yet she is th e besl and
moll sympathe tic person lo whom to tell your troubles. A nd when
ii comes to school spiri t she's "it" personified. She has never been
known lo study but she graduates with the Class of ' 19. 'Nuff said!
She is a poet from way back yonder und rhymes jusl roll off her pen.
h is said she can compete with lhe besl of them in vamping the
innocents. \Ve would think the world off its hinges if Kitty were
not laughing or telling something funny. Most people have their
enemies but it is safe to s ay tha t every one in R. H. S. likes Kitty.
Kitty expec ts to go to Farm ville, and we all wish her grea t success
as a "hen" school teacher. A. A.; R. C .; G. C.; Class Poet;

"A man of man)} words, but of /illle thought."

We have now come to "Tubby." our mosl versatile arguer. He loves
lo dwell on such subjecls as "Lalin as a useless study," "\Vhy women
should not vo te," 'The pleasures of a working man" versus "School
life," etc. The Senior Class seems to have great faith in his fa ther
as a banker, as we elected him our class treasurer. This he accepted,
though reluclanlly. as he says th at he does nol like "public offices" ? ?
Thi$ lime las t year " Tubby" scorned all females; now we never see
him with less than two girls a t a time. He has also learned to ''shake
a foot" which was at one lime believed to be impossible. "Tubby"
is, however, one of the most studious members of our Class, and
success in all of his studies was the result. A naval officer is his ideal,
but he is going lo try a few years at V. M. I. before making his
final decision as to his life's occupation. Treas. Class '19; M. C.;

What of Coleman the star guard of th e Basket-Ball learn'? Well.
just ask a certain little forward in Lynchburg whose fame suddenly
had a n eclipse when Louise arrived en the scene. But lo us she is
an ideal chum with a shy girlish manner. Louise is a great teaser
but becomingly blushes when the tables are turned. Her only worry
is the fear of stumping her loc as she advances for her diploma.
But we who know her have lit1le fear of this mishap. Her clear
intellect combined with determination and a strong will makes it im·
possible for her to fail in anything. Louise especially likes lo trip
a "light fantastic toe" to the tune of "\.Valtz me Around Again
Bill." She has won the blue ribbon on oil paintings and also .. biscuits."
\Vhich road is she going lo travel'? On ei ther she has the be~t wishes
of I. er classmates and her chum Mary. A. A.; G. 81. B.; Ath.

"A maicl lo ru/rom her ruorlt ruas all in all."
Ardis is truly devoted to her work. Whatever her task may be she
docs it diligenlly and in a matter-of-fac t way that justifies admira tion.
\ Vhcn Ardis can be induced to real laughter it is delightful to hear.
Even her performances on the ivory board do not su rpass its melody.
One th ing abou t Ardis causes us to wonder. that is why she uses the
expression "nice eyes"' to describe 1he beauty of the human eyes.
H owever. in the one year she has spent with us, having come from
S1aun ton H igh Sc hool, we have found her a good friend and we, the
C lass of ' 19, wi II not soon forge I her f riendship at R. 1-1 . S. R. C.;

\Villiam, better known as Bill, is one of 1hc most optimistic of our
members. Always ch eerful and bright himself he keeps 1he entire

can't stay wi th Bill and not be cheerful. Low grades never worry
him; when he docs get one he takes a good look and then-laughs I
13ill seldom docs anything so !crious as study, but spends his study
periods engaged in a "social call." Nevertheless, \'lilliam has made
a g&lt;'od record, especially in typewriting, being the first in R. H. S.

that she has trod the halls of R . H . S. she has made an excellent

she wi II hold to her own opin ion though a whole world's against her.
She has plenty of school spirit, too, and is a lways seen at the

OTEY BROOKE HE LM

"Just a tiny little maiden with soft and sillt'Y hair,
UI itlr s n•ce t, old-fashioned, niinning, girlislr ways;
A11&lt;/ a lrcart full of yearning. and a mine/ brim full
of learning."
How we envy Otey's accurate mind!
\Vhile we wander around
hunting for an answ,er to a question she ups and hits the nail square
on the head. And, too, she has helped a number of us over stumbling
blocks. especially in Latin and Math. O tey's ambi tion is lo have
several degrees placed after her name, and she'll keep a t a thing 'til
it's done (as well as keep you at it too if you work with her). Coupling the se facts together we find the sec ret; why her report card
hardly knows a grade below ninety! Otey expects lo go lo Farmville
next winier and has planned to become a teacher, but she says she
hopes no t for the rest of her life. By this we ga ther that she expects
lo follow another ''Profession," but she didn't tell us what. Possibly
a s tudent al \Villiam and Mary can enlighten us or will it be "the
Sailor Boy?" M. W. L. S.; A. A.; G. C.: R. C.

"Not for self but for Country."
This is true of Cary for he le ft R. H. S. and volun teered in Uncle
Sam's great army to see the sights in Berlin. It is rumored that "Bill"
Hohen zoll ern heard of Cary's move and within two mon ths had
signed "The Papers" putting an end lo the war and one of our hero's
ambitions. R e turn ing to school, he was recei ved with a royal welcome
for the young soldier is held in high esteem by all. The ladies having
seen Cary pe rform on the Athleti c field, and knowing a few of his
numerous good qualities (and his one weakness) come to school with
greater regularity (since his return) with more than lessons on their
minds and blushes on their cheeks. Cary has shown great abi lity as
an office-holder and a student. He can never be forgotten by u;
and we are sure that when he finishes \V. and L. he will accomplish
wnnJ .- rful things in the busin ess world. Luck to you, "old pal" of '19.

names bu t 'Billie" is probably most familiar lo her. Thelma's
popularity has followed her lo Roanoke High and every one who
claims her f ricnd ship has a jewel. She is n comfort and joy to all
who come in touch with her and we know she will be successful in
whatever vocation she chooses. At present her choice is vocal, and

JOHN MARSHALL REID
"/ am very fond of the companJi of /aclics,
In fact I am a 'ladies' man.'"

John Marshall, more familiarly known to us as "Bus," for the last
few months has been "some guy" with the ladies. A dance twice
a week and the movies in the meantime help out the cause. But
somehow he finds time enough for studies lo furnish old R. H. S.
a most credi table schola r, even though given to making uncomp limentary
rema rks on English poetry. "Bus" has almost decided upon his
f ulure vocal ion by which lo support the 'one" of whom he dreams,
by becoming an electrical engineer with the 8. S .. E. E. degrees
allached to his cognomen. The field is large and presents the best
of inducements, so we wish him great success in al l the exploits inlo
which he may venture. M . C.; A. A.; J. L. S.; R. C.; Art Edi to r

VICTORIA SARA CECELIA MARTIN
"A swecl allractive leind a/ grace,
A full assurance given b)I looks.

Tire lineaments of Gospel boolrs.''

Victoria is one of those who has a pleasant smile for every one and
a swee t disposition that has held our love and friendship through
four years of high school. She is contemplating goi ng off to school;
as to where we do not know for "Vic" seems extremely interested in
a soldier hoy in France, but her main topic of conversation is always
"Brother Fred." Any way w e know she will succeed in whatever
sh._. allempts and we prrdicl for her a successful future. Th e S enior

Dean isn "t what Miss Boord would call "hilarious."" but she can
always appr!'ciate. a good joke and no matter where it is told a peal
of laughter bursts forth. She is especially interested in French (?)
since she got such a good start. Guess thi s will be her specialty

nature, which is called to our attention in Civics C lass daily when
that pathetic voice cries out, "'M-i-s-t-e-r. Layman!·· Although her

GERTRUDE ELLIOTT NOELL
"And her m ocleJt ansn:cr ancl graceful air
Show h er wise and good as she is fair."

To wrile a short skelch of the period of Gertrude's career spent
among us is hard tn do, for pages would be required in which to
record the qualities of one so talented. Gertrude no t only stars in
En'!lish (in which she generally plays th e role "leading lady") but
in her other studies as well. Peep inlo Miss Jenning's grade bookit will lcll the talc. Whenever a classmale wishes a passage in poelry
interpreled or a prop. in Geometry explained, i1's &lt;:dways- "Oh ! let
me ask Gertrude!" \Ve find her ever ready and willing lo do her
best- and it is "best" loo. Gertrude no t only !hows much depth of
thought in interpretin g poetry, bul also in composing it-not the
" school girl verse," but such as Shelley or Kea ls mighl value. 'Nineteen's sincerest wishes to you-· Maid of Youth"; we remember and
cherish whal lo us your Ii fe has meant. G. C.; A. A.; R. C.;

OTILIA IRVING OVERSTREET
"/ a m in earnes t: I will not cqu ivocalc : I will not excuse:
I will not retreat an inch: I will be hearcl !"

Round as lo figure, square as lo abili1y, lhrce-cornered as lo intellect,
smoo th as lo disposilion. arc the ingredienls which go to make up one
of 1he best. the tru es! and 1he most subs1an1ial girls in our class. When
Lady Irving walks down Senior row we feel th e air vibrate with
importance. She is a bonnie lass with a wholesome ligh1 radia1in g
from her deep brown eyes and she is a type which invariably draws
from one 1he same conclusion-' She'll ma ke some man a mighty fine
wife."
Irving is extremely romantic and always l1as "somethin'
thrillin'" to tell. D espite her many "lovers' quarrels" (?) we think
she's ever "Neren" c loser to "John." \Vhatever her plans for the
fulure may be- raising chickens on the farm or studying medicine,
we wi sh her great success and prosperity. G. C.; A. A . ; Sec. M.

BERNICE LUCILLE PETERS
"The glory of a firm capacious miricl."

Luci ll e, one of the most atlraclive girls of our class, by her tenderness and gentleness of manner has won our hearts. 'Cile is a jolly
good sport and is always ready for some mischief. \Vh en there is
any place to go you may h ear her say, "Oh! lea\e the lessons and
le t' s go."
It is a wonder how we ll she ge ts on in her 'tudies.
Lucille is a good student in all of h er classes. especially English sometimes hardly seeming human in using her imaf!inative powers; so
far do they soar from our sights that when reading her essays or
stories we feel ourselves trave ling fast through an atmosphere of
fancy in to th e wor ld of Dreams. This little E nglish star was unanimously c hosen ··prophet o f th e 'Nineteen C lass ."
'Cile has nol

popular with everybody in our class, but espec ially with one. ..Oh,
George. now stop!" lsn ' t 1hat familiar? Those who know Estelle
at home can say that she is not only studious but very industrious.
Without doubt thi s little "embodiment of energy" could begin (Satmday morning) wi th a home neglected since th e days of Chiva lry, and
by evening it would be one lit in which to entertain Kin g Arthur
and his Knights of the Round Table. Estelle's knight didn't live

In her make-up there is that 'omething that makes
Dorothy a leader in whatever she undertakes- be it serious o r frivolous- for she work. when she works &lt;&gt;nd plays when she plays.

EVELYN ELIZABETH URQUHART
"I am forc1•cr merry. niilly and niisc."
It is a well-known fact tha t Evelyn is one of the jolliest of the class,
and she makes excellen t use of her merry laughter. She is certainly
noted for her f;liggle and the way she talks. which comes perfec tly
nahual to her. She is ever ready to lend a helping ha.n d to those
in trouble over lessons and sometimes, though rarely. she needs help
herself after a late n ight spent at a party or someth ing like tha t to
which she dearly loves to go. \Ve know that Evelyn is especially
fond of the "movies" and she always knows what is going on. H er
p lans for the future we do not kn ow, but 1he class wishes her a
fruitful career. G. C.; R. C.; A. A.

KATHRYN EAGLE WILLSON
"To tl1osc wli o lenol!J 1/1cc not ;,o l!Jords can paint.
To 1/1osc IDlio le1101JJ thee, lenoni all l!Jord$ arc faint."
Ca lm and swee t, Kathryn has traveled for three and one-half years
down the p lacid stream of high schoo.I knowledge. The C lass of '19
has lea rned th a t her mollo is. "Begone. dull c are. thou and I cou ld
n ever agree," because she is out for all the good times coming her
way. But when exams roll around Kathryn always comes ou t on
top. She has a wonderful imagination and her rich vocabulary and
" fl,,wcry dic1ion" sta rtle all and carry us through the vista of her
visions. In future years we expect to see K a th ryn starring a.s Princess Kathryn in "King Henry V." During her school career she
has won a multitude of friends and always she is laughing and talkin11 wi lh a crowd of boys and Rirls. She is very "frank" in expressing
her fondness for "Prune ( r)s." K a1hryn has the best wishes of 1he
'19 Class in whatever she may choose for her life work. A. A.;

VIRGIN I A CLEMENTINE BLOXTON
"A crealurc no/ loo brig/1/ or good
For human nalurc's daily food."
Virginia came to us last fall from Virginia lntermont. By her happy face and winning way she was
not long in becoming a fasi friend of the Senior class. Virginia is very fond of writing poetry. Do her
inspirations come from the front of the Senior Row-by George! "I'll say they do!" Virginia is not
only capable of making 97 on French examination bu t she also takes the lead in gym work. She would
rather play baske t-ball than eat olive sandwiches in study hall. She says )illle of her future but whatever vocation she might choose, here's luck to you, lillle friend. R. C.; Bt. B.

Senior Class History
When we blooming novices lo High School did come,
Prospecls for us loo feed awfully glum;
Old R. H. S. in the da))s of 'sixteen
Indeed was a lrJ)ing and fearful scene.
But soon this scene of horror shifted;
We found ourselves to Sophomores Zif ted
And when we were Juniors, so pert and wise,
Our importance, indeed, was hard lo disguise.
But now we're abo1'e these things so "petite''
And ha1Je passed lo /of tier places more fit.
We are slowl:y unlocking the Cate of Li/e
In spite of the absence of our dear Miss Critz.
"Flu" failed lo slop us on our march lo success.
And we've produced famous people, }lou no doubt must confess;
Our heroes in bas/eel-ball, football and track.
The vim and the pep did ne1J• r lack.
e
We mustn't forget our Shalrespeare class,
There was man)) a scold and man:y a laugh!
After watching Miss HeJ)Ward who showed us "hon)'
We all should be famous actors bJJ now.
Our 'nineteen class had disad1Janlages threefold,
But these only tended our will lo mold,
And as hoar:y Father Time moves swiftly on
We'll not f orgel High School and the days that are gone.
We've wrillen this poem just lo let ]Jou lenow
Things that have happened in the Senior Row;
Just lo prove lo ]Jou that sa:yi11g true,
"You can alwa}Js do what _you will to do. "

A Touch of Black Magic

'if

O RA W the wizard's circle upon the sands, and bl ue flames spring from
its circumference. I describe an inner ci rcle, and green fla m es come
responsive to my words of Magic. I touch the common center of both
with my wand and red Aames, like adders' tongues, leap from the earth. Over
these I place my caldron filled with the blood of a new killed deer and as it
boils I speak my incantations and make my mystic signs and passes, watchi n g
the blood-red mist as it rises to meet the Spirits of the Air. I chant my
conjurations as I learned them from the Great K ey of Solomon and while I
speak the ruddy fumes take human forms. Out of the dark. fathom less Past
come a company of old friends. While the caldron boils, their cloud for m s
grow ever more distinct and definite, till at length I can trace the ir every
feature. I see the color of their eyes. I discern the shad es of their hair still
glossy with the sheen of youth.
They and the events of their lives, their joys and sorrows, their virtues and
sins, their hatreds. jealousies and loves-the seven numbers of the total sum
of life- pass before me as in a panorama, moving when I bid them move,
pausing when I bid them pause, speaking when I bid them speak and alas !
fading back into the dim, gray limbo of the past long, long ere I would h ave
them go. But hark I my radiant shades are about to speak. The play is abou t
to begin.
My first scene is on a crowded city street. Throngs of people are hurrying
in every direction but strange to say many of them seem to have one destina tio n
in view and pushed along by the crowd I. too, join the hurrying masses a nd
turn my face toward the common "Mecca" of all. I had gone only a few
steps when some one touched me on the shoulder and turning around I saw a
young lady dressed in very "Mannish Style" swinging a light can e. I di d
not immediately recognize her, but soon remembered the trim littl e lady who
formerly graced the halls of Roanoke High School a nd who was a member

of the "Class of 1919," since recognized as the most illustrious which ever
left old R. H. S. l t was none other than Dorothy Terrill.
I remember
now that when the University of Virginia opened its doors to women she,
Irving Overstreet, Mabel Kerr, Mae Goggin, Margaret Jett, Ardis Du Bois,
Gertrude Noell, Margaret Graves, and Dorothy Stewart entered. The rest
uf these girls are now completing their studies in Europe. but Dorothy after
spending several years in London has retL1rned home. I was glad to learn
from her that Bertha R euter, who was the first in our class to inscribe her name
on the book enlitled "Marriage Licenses," is still living happily at Staunton.
She told me of several other members of the Class of ' 1 whom she met in
9
London, having been to France doing Reconstruction work. Among them
were L ouis Bro'"'n and Paul Sheahan who were chairmen of the two units
which have become famous all over the world fo r their efficient and valuable
aid in the building up of these war-desolated countries. Virginia Bouldin,
K a therine Cole, Louise Coleman, Virginia Bloxton, Lucile Mundy, Mary
Dold, Caroline Hoge, Victoria Martin, Pauline Bartlett, Ailie Mason.
a nd H elen Burke. She also said that she had seen Walter Young "several
times" in L ondon where he is representing the American National Board of
Civil E ngineering.
She seemed surprised when she found that I had not heard of the wedding
which had been the talk of high Society for the past six months and which was
to take place that evening. I was rather surprised myself when I found that
the bride and groom were my old school friends, Arline Cutshall, the worldfamous prima donna, and William L eap. a well-known New York broker. l
was glad that I happened to be in the city in time to witness the ceremony and
we went on immediately to the church. We arrived rather early but the
chu rch was even then almost filled. However, we found a good seat and
had plenty of time to look around. 1 was surprised to see so many old friends.
O n one of the front seats sat Thelma Martin, teacher of A:.st11eti c dancing in
Washington. She seemed very much interested in the ceremony and after
it was over was the first to offer congratulations to the happy pair. Near her,
but a few seats back, were Otey H elm and Julia Lybrook. Julia studied in
Italy for several years after leaving high school and is now one of the most
famous artists of to-day. Otey has received a medal for especially fluent
translations of Latin and has been offered the Chair of Latin and Greek at

Vassar College. I do not think that she will accept it, for it rumored that she
is about to embark on the stormy sea of Matrimony and we know that her
voyage will be successful for her pilot had some experience on the seas during
the great World War. Across from them sat Nancy L ukens, Head Mistress
of Bryn Mawr College, and L aura Wood, instructor of English in the same
School. Near the back was a group of very dignified looking ladies and
gentlemen. They were pointed out to me as leaders in the movement for
extending the school term to twelve months thus giving the pupils no time for
"foolish frivolity consisting chiefly of dancing-a shameful waste o f the energy
given by the good God for the development of the mind"- this was their aim.
I knew several of them-L ewis Hester, principal of the new half-million dollar Roanoke High School, and his assistant, Vasco Parrack, Eugene Davis,
insh·uctor in Physics, also Clarinda H olcomb, Grace Henty. Mildred J ett,
Mary Mason, Ada Arthur, Sylvia D uffey, Mary Bowers, Margaret Henderson, Cosa R eynolds and Nellie Tiplady, teachers in the School.
The Class of 1919 also turned out several famous actresses. They were
present and sat just across the aisle from us. T hey were Thuma Coleman,
Ruth Lavinder, Roberta Moore, Theon Hart, Sallie Barksdale, C laudine
Mayhew and Elizabeth Hill. T here was another large group near the door
representing the business women of the city. Among them were Helen
Laughon, Laura Hardy, Pearl Mattox, Helen T homason, Gladys Marshall,
Elsie Bergendahl, Margaret Carter, Evelyn Urquhart, Mary Garland,
Aurelia Oedaker, and Myrtle Wood. I also heard of several o th er members
of the Class who are famous in the business world. H arry R eid who is
general manager of the R ailroad Offices of Washington, and the Hayes
Brothers, famous all over the United States for their speed in stenographic
work. I had been so busy looking around that I had not noticed who was
sitting by me until this moment. I happened to glance around and w ho should
be sitting there but Mary D ouglas and George Peters. G eorge is one of the
greatest manufacturers in the United States. His business a bility is unrivaled .
Mary has won great renown as a portrait painter and she a nd Marsha ll Reid
have studios in Paris which are the shrines of many youthful admirers just
starting up the ladder of Fame which they have scaled so successfully. M a ry
told me she had just finished a portrait of Katherine W ilson who is now in
San J uan, Porto R ico. Kathryn has become a society leader and gu&lt;"en of

fashion in the West Indies where she has been making her home for the past
few years. George said that he had only the day before received a letter from
Edgar Howard who has a large ranch out West telling him that he was getting along fine and making money fast but that he was leaving for the East
immediately, as he was anxious to see two of his old classmates who are now
on the stage. They are now playing in New Yark and are considered the
sensation of the season-Estelle Stanley and J ohn Carr, the greatest comedians since Charlie Chaplin. Estelle's laugh is valued at a "million dollars' a
minute" and John is famous for his funny speeches.
Just then there was a great stir in the back of the Church; every one was
turning around for the bridal party had entered the vestibule. Whispers filled
the air: " T here she is." "See, isn't she beautiful!" "White satin, duchesse
lace, orange blossoms." "Was there ever such a bride-or groom?" (This
from the young ladies.) "They say he's worth millions." "Marry him for
his money?" "No, indeed, why they've been in love since they were school
children together."
T he strains of Lohengrin's Wedding March drew our attention again to the
front and I recognized the organist immediately as Lucille Garrett who has
become famous in the musical world. In fact, I knew the whole party, from
the preacher, who was no other than John Wellford, to Harry Nash who
rendered a beautiful vocal solo. Harry has become so famous that he now
gets hundreds of letters every day from theater managers begging him to come
to them for the next season. However, since a certain young lady left for
France he has had no heart for song and it was only as a special favor to the
bride that he agreed to give us such a rare treat to-day. The Maid of Honor
was Claudine Kesler, a famous Chautauqua Lecturer. I need say nothing of
her for the Kesler-Davenport debate is known wherever the yellow banner of
Woman Suffrage fl ies to-day. The bridesmaids were J osephine Minter,
who is the same old Joe in spite of the many degrees after her name and the
fact that she holds a prominent place in the Court of Spain as American
T ranslator; Emma Tinsley. who together with Virginia Wiltsee most ably
represents V irginia in the United States Senate; and Elizabeth Comer, who
has recently published a new Geometry giving sixty-nine ways to prove every
proposition. The best man was Paul Dudl ey, a famous automobile manufacturer in Chicago. The ushers were J ohn Cure, a farmer, good-natured, good-

humored and fat"; J ulian Baker, editor of the largest paper in Boston; Elijah
McClanahan, a successful banker in Atlanta; Cary Moomaw, a prosperous
business man in Richmond; and, last but not least, Paul Price and Carroll
Neblette. Paul and Carroll have gone into partnership on a wonderful discovery which they made. They call it "Anti-Fat." In their advertisements
Paul poses as "Before," and Carroll as "After," and in large letters are
printed these words: "Look what it did for me."
When the pastor had given his blessing to the happy pair a nd dismissed
them, I started forward to offer my congratulations when suddenly everything
became dim. The church faded from my sight. T here was no sound except
the whispering of the wind in the trees and I was alone. T he caldron still
smoked over the dying embers but nothing was left of my vision save the
scattered, gray ashes of memory.

"Do They? I'll Say They Do!"
1raT HAD been decided by. the School Board Lha t it would

b e more beneficial for Roanoke to turn R. H. S. into a D ance Hall.
It was nine o'clock when the Ball began. Miss C ure, the lead er of
the Jazz. Band, commenced the music. Miss B ohannon played th e piano, and
Miss Funkhouser was the drummer. Miss Mill er pres ided at the jews-harp
and Miss Noell at the horn.
At the sound of "Oh. Helen," Mr. Phelps made a dashing leap for Miss
Board, but Mr. Turner, having been star player on the varsity footbal I team,
interposed and got there first. Mr. Phelps, undaunted, soon broke that up b y
slapping Mr. Turner on the back. This would have floored him had h e not
fallen into Miss Beebee's arms, who was gliding across the Aoor with Mr.
Parsons. Mr. Turner, a little nettled by his sojourn in Miss B eebee's arms,
picked himself up and made for Mr. Phelps. A fight ensued, in which M r.
Turner easi ly won, because Mr. Phelps had gotten some chewing gum o n his
dancing pumps ( special at $1.49, reduced from $1.50) that had fallen from
Miss Board's rosy lips.
Miss Lovelace and Mr. M cD onald jazzed serenely on (?) throu ghout
the whole hubbub. They were easily the star dancers of the occasion .
Miss Carlisle, with her hands on her hips and a coquettish look in her
eye. walked up to Miss Board and said, "Look here. kid, w ha'd' you m ean
by Airting with my sweetie ? I ain't no wall flower! "
Miss R eed and Miss Calfee had condescended to give a duo exh ib ition
toe-dance. They looked very chic in their dainty frilled ballet costum es.
Miss H ayward, glancing at Miss Hu ff and Mr. Viaud, w ho w ere cheekdancing, and at Miss Board, who was making smoke rings wi th a half-gone
"Falima," had been blooming by the wall all the evening with M r. Layman.
She turned to him and said, "What is the twentieth century girl comin g to ? "
Mr. Layman sadly shook his head.

MOTTO:

"Let Mutt do it."

September 8, 19 16.

It was for us a drear}} da}I,
(Though there was sunshine olhers sa:y)
When wilh our shaking limbs aqualee,
We did our trembling wa}J betal{e
From R. I. S. so haughl}I a11d proud,
To R. H. S. soon humbled and bowed:
Some wear.!J monlhs we passed this wa_y,
Till finall.Y Sophs we became one da_y.
(Here the fickle Muse forsook me and I was left lo complete this, the
third Chapter of our history, in Prose.)

lb\ FTER our first exams were over,

those of us who had been faithfu l
~ entered into our reward (if not rest), thereby becoming Sophs. As
the cry of "Rats!" no longer awakened consternation in our breasts,
we began to take great pleasure in approaching and loafing around the e ntrances
to the noble (?) and commodious (?) edifice w herein the future great men
and women of Roanoke were earnestly (?) pursuing elu sive solutions to
impossible Math problems, etc. Our Motto as Sophs was: "Spare (not)
the rod and spoil (not) the Freshmen."
While Freshmen our only ambition was to become Sophs. and as Sophs
we thought only of the time when we would be Juniors, and now being Juniors
we think of the time when, like the present Class, we will be g rave ( ?) and
dignified (?) Seniors, all of which goes to prove w hat Byron says:

"The gaudJJ to:y so ftercel:y sought,
Hath lost its charm 011 being caught.''
Our class has been well represented in Athletics Lhis year, especia lly in
In the former, we furnished two excellent players,

Basket~ball and Football.

Masinter and Shockley, and in the latter, McClanahan and Brown gave
material help towards winning the State Football Championship.
We are not only noted for our Athletic tendencies, but through the strenuous and untiring efforts of our President, Richard R edden, we have made a
name for ourselves in a social way. It is also because of our President's work
tha t we have inaugurated the " J unior D ramatic Club," the purpose of which
is to give a competitive class play wi th the Seniors.
Never has there been joined in a single class the two attributes of quality
a nd q uantity in such profusion as in ours. Indeed we are considered the best
class that the ex-R. H . S. has ever had or the J. H. S. will ever produce. with
exception, perhaps, of the Class of '19 (?) .

Pink and Pursuit
~A Y, sis, that's an awful ly good-looking gi rl in pink o ver there by th e
tea table. Who is she ?" asked Tom Stewart o f hi s sister . E lea nor.
"Well, brother," responded his sister, " the re a rc exactly four girls
in pink at the tea table, and if-"
"Oh, I say, sis, stop kidding! you know whom I mea n - th e one vvi th th e
light hair."
"And three of them have light hair," she continu ed, teasi ng ly.
"Oh, have a heart!" cried Tom, throwin g up hie; hands in co mic dismay.
"Well, if you want to know that badly- she is Emalina Wilson; but you
have no chance, Tom, because every boy here is crazy abou t h er and you
are far from being the most attractive one here."
"Thanks, awfully, sis, for the compliment and the warning, but I' m h ard
struck. She's Emalina, 'My Gal,' all right," he ended gaily as he made his
way to the tea table.
Emalina was a pretty girl, and she looked particularly pretty this afternoon in a dainty afternoon frock and picture hat. She was just th e kind of
a girl that looked pretty in pink and she knew it, too ! She was the C lass
beauty, and for this reason she had been chosen to preside over th e tea table
at the Senior Tea given during graduation week on th e co ll ege campus.
During the course of the afternoon, T om was introdu ced to "her" and
'twas late before his sister could convince him that it was time fo r guests to leave.
"Just a minute, sis," was his reply to h er remonstrances.
"Are you quite sure you haven't an engagement for to-morrow afternoon,
Miss Wilson?"
"Why, no, I'm quite sure I have a date to-m orrow a fternoon," she
answered, laughing at his crestfallen countenance. "If I'm not mistaken, a
certain Mr. Stewart has asked me to drive with him in his new racer !·'
"Good! He told me to tell you that he'd ca ll at three."
"All right, at three, then ; I'll be ready. Good-bye ! "

" T he boy doesn't eat anything," complained his mother, "and he has
developed some unusually nervous habits lately. I can't understand him!"
"The ra£Cal," lovingly commented the father, "I can't get him interested
in anything at the office and I'm on a particularly important case."
"Don't bother, daddy dear," interposed sis with an air of mystery. "Thf
boy is head over heels in love!"
" In love!" hastily expostulated his mother. "Eleanor, what are you
thinking of? How perfectly absurd !"
"Not at all, mamma. Hasn't he said anything about it to you? She's
a girl at college, who really is a dear. Don't dare breathe this to brother,
and please, for heaven's sake, don't question him!"

"Say, sis, who is that confounded little dude I saw Emalina with the
other day?" asked T ern Stewart of his sister a certain Sunday afternoon. "She
hasn't let me come near her for weeks, and I'm sick of it !"
"Dude! Why, you jealous thing! He's a perfectly lovely fellow. Emmy
seems to be really fond of him, too. He's taken her to the Wayside Inn this
a fternoon for tea. Weeks, indeed! Then it must have been your twin
brother I saw with her at the matinee yesterday."
"Oh, thanks for the information," returned Tom irritably. "But, I'm
not jealous a bit, I'd have you know! I merely asked out of curiosity. What
is it to me, anyway?"
"Oh. I beg your pardon! If you aren't jealous, and merely curious,
perhaps I can tell you more. He's from her home town, and he's at least
twenty years older than she ! she told me Jaf:t night (in a very confidential
voice) that she simply adored old men, and-!"
Here she was interrupted by the slamming of two doors and the angry
snort of an engine in the driveway.
"Oh, no, indeed, he isn't jealous a bit. H ow could I have misunderstood
him so! Poor boy. I ought to tell him, but perhaps the shock will do him
good !"

"Tom, what is the matter with you? You've been the grumpiest thing all
evening ; you've barely spoken a decent word to me!" complained Emalina t0
a very disconsolate looking Tom at the Graduation dance.
"I beg your pardon; I didn't mean to be rude, but 1- 1 don't feel-erexactly right- er-nothing serious you know but, oh,- " stammered Tom
apologetically.

Sophomore History

1?N September, 19 17. we entered our first year in High School. We had
been Seniors a t J unior High S chool! Of this we were quite aware for
the "Powers that be" were continually tellin g us that we were in the
highest class and, therefore, must set a good example for the lower grades in
the school. At that time boys and girls were always comjng over from High
S chool ( especially when they wanted money for the A thletic A ssociation or
the Annua l) to inform us that we were as much a part of the High School as
those in the hi gher grades. D idn't we feel big? But our heads were to be
lowered a nd not gradually, by any means. but all in one day. That was the
day we a rrived a t the H igh School building.
As this is supposed to be a History and history consists of plain fa ctshere is the plainest-we were treated dreadfully ! The Sophomore girls
needed a few hairpins so they "very politely" (?? ) took ours. T he boyswe ll their reception was "warm" (??) . So du1i ng the first and second years
of our High School life we experienced both sides of the old saying, "Kings
amon g dogs, a nd dogs among Killgs." In our last year at the Junior High,
we were looked up to, somewhat as kings, by the other pupils of the school;
w hile in our second year we experienced sensations something like the latter
p a rt of the old saying.
H owever, a fter two weeks of arranging schedules we got dov,rn to work
but this did not last long, for school s were closed on account of the "Ru."
With the exception of about two weeks' work, regul ar studies were not resumed
until after C hristmas holidays. T he mid-year examinations shov.red how little
know ledge we had really acquired but we did the best we could under such
tryin g circumstances.
There are two things to which this class looks forwa rd and they are:
Greeting the rats tha t come from the Junior Hi gh School next year, and
reig nin g supreme in the year 1.921.

"The Child is Father of the Man"

"~f;V[f HY Petey, dear, what can be the trouble?" anxiously exclaimed his

\30:.J mother.

"O mother, I failed on Geometry exam. It made Mr. Phelps
so mad he rolled his big eyes at me and said, 'You may go to the of-fice and
ob-tain a per-mit to en-ter a-gain this class,' Oh! what must I do?
"But nearly everybody was in trouble to-day. B e n and G eorge , my best
friends, were promenading down the hall, imitating o ne of the faculty, when
suddenly Mr. Turner whirled around and came switching back toward them.
He says Ben will be put out of our history class-no, didn't tou ch George, for
he's Miss Carlisle's pet. Oh! but I must stop. Forrest Mill e r and Sally
Lovelace say I ought not to fu ss about our instructors for we often 'try them.'
If Farrest and Sally ever become teachers they will certainly be loved by their
pupils. Then there's Willie Parsons who is a good boy. Smart. too, but
doesn't act like he thinks he knows it all. Mother, why am I not like him ? "
Rap! Rap!
"There! some one knocks !"
"Good afternoon, madam."
"Good evening."
"I, John S. McDonald, the solicitor of subscriptions for o ur approaching
Annual, am before your charming personality this afternoon for the purpose of
winning from you your kindest consideration of our 'Acorns of Roanoke.'
This is a most noble volume. Speaking my incantations spon taneously from
the chemical standpoint, it is one of the most illustrious ever produced by a
student body."
"Pardon me, young man, but at leisure hours I enrich my vocabulary by
the use of a dictionary not by conversation with agen ts."
Having thus viewed disappointment and d e feat, "Mac" McDonald
retraced his steps toward the High School bui lding. Just as he turned the
corner-.
"Oh! hello there, Sully! You are looking mighty sweet a n d sprightly
this afternoon. How goes the Annual?"

"Pretty good. I have just fi nished toasting the faculty a bit, d idn't scorch
them ( as they d o us) but just toasted a little. L isten to a few:
Here' s to Miss Cora with mind so bright.
Who rivals addin' machines with all her might.
Here's to Miss Carlisle. a fri end of the boys,
'Tho sometimes she treats them as if they were toys.
Here's to Mr. T urner, impartial and fair,
Gracefully he glides as he steps with care.
" That's g rea t, Sully. who-"
"Wait a minute-this is best :
H ere's to Mr. L ayman, the student body pet,
In a race of-jokes, he wins, you bet !
H ere's to Mrs. Smith, who lately did embark,
Upon a tranquil sea in Matrimonial Ark.
H ere's to P rofesseur, who lately "est venu,"
E ndowi ng R. H. S. "avec sens beaucoup."
Here' s to M cD onald, a faculty sample.
Sorry to say he's not Seniors' exampl e.
H ere's to Mr. Parsons, beloved and adored,
To save him from critics we'd jump over Boa rd.
H ere's to McQl1ilkin, who as a dog at bay,
Swiped our "School Turkey" on Thanksgiving D ay.
"Sully . they are splendid! But where does Miss H aywa rd come in?"
''Oh, tha t reminds me! I wish you were in our English class. I'm simply
crazy about Miss Hayward, but she tickles me sometimes. T o-day she
called us ' stupid,' 'inan e.' says we 'take no pride in getting up our parts in
S hakespeare,' so forth. so on."
"Pausing for a few seconds, she continued: 'We just as well call a
spade a spade. and not a shovel. You show no appreciation of Macbeth.

Hamlet, or any of the characters in these plays. I've mad e up my mind you've
just got to put more time and thought on my assignme nts.
You have no
choice in the matter. You've got to do it! ! ! ' "
"Some pupils do not seem to appreciate her motive, bul I fee l it was all
meant for our good," thoughtfully explained Sully. "She realizes that the
thoughts and habits we form in childhood go with us thru life."
"Yes," replied "Mac," "your statement is very true.
Each of our
instructors plays an important part in the formation of our characters. for it is
the young and tender years of our life that are spent in school under their
influence."
This brings to my mind, the lesson of Wordsworth's beautiful poem, "The
Ode on Intimations of Immortality:" As our characters are molded in childhood and youth so will they be in maturity. "The child is father of the m an."

Freshman History

I !::: 1r ISTOR Y repeats itself, and a class history is no exception to the rule.
t!..!Jic!..!. H owever, the history of the future class of '21 is, to us, the most
important of al l.

It would take too long to mention all our geniuses. The wisdom of the
class is an accepted fac t. We passed through the intermediate grades without
particularly distin guishing ourselves, but in the freshman year several of our
gifted members won an enviable reputation in history, science and literature.
Up lo thi s time we have no evidence that there exists among us a Pythagoras
or Euclid.
The latter part of our freshman year was interrupted several times by the
epidemic of influenza. Much time was lost, but undaunted by this we returned
lo school with renewed vigor. Mid-year exams-that period dark and
dreaded by every freshman, came and passed. W e bid farewell to "Junior
L ee" and upon entering J efferson High 'Nere joyfully hailed as "Rats." It
may be sta ted that we felt as if we were real rats in a real trap. Now our
surroundings are no longer strange to us. We have learned to love them.
Our first year is completed and we are well advanced on our second. With
such a beginning we expect some day to be "shining lights" of Jefferson High
School, for "Well begun is half done."

"School Days."

I wish I were a genius,
I don' t thin!? it's fair;
I f there wasn' l such a thing as school,
T hen I wouldn' t care.
I t's stud:y, stud:y everJ,1 night
W a:y till ha/f-past twelve,
It' s into C eomelr:y. Latin, French,
And such we have lo delve.
Some folks saJ,J these are happ:y da:ys,
Th e wors t is yet lo come,
1 don't believe it, but if ' tis true
T hen blame it! hel'e, l' m done.

A Student's Outlook
LJi rJ HE great four-year

conflict out of ,,vhich ,,,,e have just e m erged, in vol v~
.
~ ing so many nations of the entire world, however te rribl e it m ay h ave
been, was not waged in vain.
Jn this age of irreverence and fri volity, th e studen t- the boy and girl in
high school,-has been led to view life from a diffe ren t standpoi nt.
It is
no longer to him a mere span of a few years in which h e may p ursu e his ow n
selfish ambitions and pleasures-not this, but a most sacred trust.
The favorable conditions under which most of us live h ave bli nde d our
eyes to the wants and needs of our brothers in distan t lands. But the untold
sufferings brought on by the World War have stirred our h ea rts to such a depth
that we are forgetting self, thereby becoming broader a nd more unselfish
in extending to them a helping hand. The student b egins to r ea lize as n ever
before that life is a sacred trust and given to him that h e may serve mankind.
Can one doubt, in view of these fac ts, that students are b ecomi n g broader in
mind, more ennobled in character and grasping the gospel idea o f the Fatherhood of G od and the brotherhood of man, thereby fulfillin g th e law of love
for one another?
Thus, we are coming out from the towering threats of war into the clea r
sweet atmosphere of internationalism and broth erhood. We repea t th at the
costly lessons learned in the hard school of war have not been learned in
vain. This, as nothing else, has awakened us to th e realization o f w hat a n
important place each and every one of us occupies in the world .
May we live up to the teaching of Eleanor H. P orter, that "each of us
is just a small instrument in the great Orchestra of Li fe. W e mu st see to it
that we are always in tune, never drag or hit a false note, for then the ha rmony
would not be complete."
The High School student of to-day is R oanoke's ci ti zen o f to-morrow.
The student's thoughts of to-day are the world's thoughts o f to- m orrow.
Students ! Let us do our part to preserve a na tional unity and practice a
more catholic spirit which shall fill the future w ith a radiance a nd hope for
which the world has so long been groping.

"When the tide of opportunity has flowed out ,
There is nowhere to float one's ship ."

'11 N the Spring of 1918, High School organi zed

the first Junior Red Cross
The officers were elected and the
Red Cross flag was raised in the presence of the whol e student body. T he
girls began at once to sew for the Belgian babies and both girls and boys took
great interest in making scrap books for the soldiers. N ew officers were elected
last F all, and although the war has terminated, the whole school body is ready
to assist in doing anything which the Red Cross Headquarte rs mi g ht ask of us.
The entire school is represented in this organization with a one hundred per
cent. membership. We carried on our campaigns in each classroom separately
and Miss Lovelace's room has the honor of going "over the top" before a ny
other class in both of the campaigns which we have waged. M e mbers 464.

eat. We sure were a starved bunch of Seniors when we reached the top and
it seemed that the fir e would never burn. But it finally did. and now the feast
was on. M iss Hayward, our charming chaperon, enjoyed a delicious cup of
coffee that was made in a tin can and strained through a handkerchief. We
had lost all our Senior dignity (?) coming up the mountain and as the gate
leading into the tower was locked, we climbed over ( tres facile) and went to
the top. We descended the mountain in the soft light of the moon. "Romantic!
that's us all over." We were not very talkative on our homeward journey.
Each one lived in his own thoughts, the thought-of our notebooks that were
due the next morning.

On Friday evening, F ebruary 14, 1919, the Juniors magnificently entertained the Seniors at a sumptuous banquet and dance immediately following.
T he banquet was served at the Y. M. C. A. It consisted of an excellent menu
seasoned with "ripping good" jokes on the pupils and faculty and several
thoroughly interesting talks by the guests of honor. It is needl ess to say it
was immensely enjoyed by all. From here we went by automobile to the home
of Miss Dorothy Pace in Wasena where we danced until twelve . Every one
present, especially the Seniors, voted the evening a huge success.

As it Happens in Books

"f(j\ FLucile Clarke, as she slammed shut the latest popular novelexclaimed
all the disgusting, exasperating nonsense this is the limit,"
and then
~

threw it clear across the porch.
"What's the matter, didn't it end right?" calmly inquired her friend,
Estelle K effer, as she daintily picked her way through the chaotic jumble of
porch chairs into the cosiest one, and lazily began nibbling candy from a plate
a t Lucile's elbow.
"Of course it did, and they lived happily ever after. Did you ever know
a story that didn't?" retorted Lucile. "Estelle K effer, will you tell me why
every single story always ends happily with the hero saying, 'He looked into
her beautifu l eyes and though it was the first glance, he knew tha t here stood
the onl y gi rl in a ll the world for him. Her beautiful eyes looked into his,
whil e the wind played hide-and-seek among the golden curls hanging in dainty
ringlets around her face whil e her beautiful red mouth parted in a smile showing a row of pearly teeth.' It's not a bit true to real life and you know it.
Things just don't happen that way. Why don't they ever write straight; redheaded. ugly, freckled girls like me fo r instance? I think it's mean, so there."
"Oh, I don't know," smilingly replied Estelle. as she knowingly raised
her eyebrows.
" No, I guess not," retorted Lucile, "any one who has as many love affairs
to her credit as you, has no kick coming."
"Well," drawled Estelle, " seeing that the subj ect makes you so cross,
suppose we change it. What are you goi ng to wear to the College G erman
to-night ?" Not waiting for an answer she rambled on. "You know that
handsome R icha rd Carter is going to be there. He's just back from F rance
and they say he's just as handsome as a dream and- "
But she did not finish. for seeing a car going up the street, she called, "Oh,
T om, wait a minute," and as he stopped, "Are you going my way?" she
coquettishly asked. "No, but I will be delighted to," he politely replied as he
helped her into the car.
.. Well , so long. L ucile, see you to-night," she called back as they drove
off together.

"Humph," grunted Lucile from the porch, "if that's the way it's done,
excuse me.
· Waiting until the last minute to dress as was her usual custom when her
friends spent about two hours, Lucile was late that night for the dance and
having dressed in a hurry she imagined that she looked a fright as she stood
in the doorway of the Club House, in striking contrast to that homogeneous
mass of floating colors, red, yellow, blue and green tulles dancing in and out
among the frock coats.
But to Richard Carter, winner of the Croix de Guerre and other distinguished medals, just home from France, she looked like a beautiful French
lily, slender and graceful as she stood silhouetted against the heavy velvet
portieres.
"Say, Jack,'' he exclaimed to a passing friend. "introduce me to her like
..
a good sport.
"Her, who?" exclaimed Jack, "Dear old chap. there are approximately
about two hundred girls here to-night and if you haven't met them all, it's
neither your fault nor the girls' as they have tried hard enough. But if you
will point out the lady of your choice, the main 'her' in your curriculum,"
he answered in mock seriousness, "I will be delighted to e r- oh. introduce
the lady in question."
"Well, if you must know definitely, the young lady standing in the doorway," he answered as he firmly steered Jack in that direction before he could
reply.
"Miss Clark, allow me to introduce my friend and the lion of the evening.
Lieutenant Carter, Miss Clark."
"Delighted to meet you," conventionally replied Dick as he bent over
her hand, but neither were bothering with words as they stood looking at each
other, totally oblivious to all else in the room save themselves.
"It's queer," said Dick, "but I feel as though I have known you before;
have I?"
"No, I don't think so, Mr. Carter," shyly answered Lu cile.
"Oh, well. anyway I know you now and am not going to let you ever
forget me now that I have found you. I am going to stick around so much
that there won't be any doubt in your mind about knowing me, 'determined,
that's me all over'," he laughingly quoted from "Oere Mable." as he claimed
her for the first of the many they had that night together. In fact so determined was he that he claimed every dance a nd the intermissions, much to the
vexation and envy of the other girls.

Such a wonderful time was Lucile having thal she imagined herself like
Cinderella in the F airy T ale and expected it all to vanish completely before
her eyes.
Yet it seemed very real as she a nd Dick stood before her gate after the
dance and Dick had just exacted a promise from her for a game of tennis
in the morning and a ride in his long, yellow racer for the afternoon.
"You know I am a poor dejected soldier now, convalescing after suffering
all the horrors of war and it's your patriotic duty to cheer me up," he answered
as Luci le pretended to demur at the monopolization of so much of her time.
But as she went into the house and closed the door any one li stening
would have heard her murmur half aloud and half to herself, " It's real and
just like it is in books."

lJ1 rr\JHE season of

1918 opened disastrously. mosl of Lhc games being can-

~ celled on account of the influenza ep idemic but as Lhc season wore on

the schedule was renewed and a first-class team was turn ed out in spite
of the fact that we had no coach and only two lette r men were back. Our
first game was played in Martinsvill e -vvith the Martin sYill e High School. which
proved an easy victim as shown by the one-sided score of 67 to 6. The n ext
game was played on the home grounds ,..,,ith our old ri,:al C hatham Training
School, which we defeated by a score of 72 to 6. This is the largest score ever
made by a High School team . The following Saturday the learn , supported
by a large number of local fans, journeyed to th e Hilly C ity whe n they met
the strong eleven of the Virginia Episcopal School. The first ha! f e nd ed with
the score standing 0 to 0, but in the second half. ovv in g to lack of a coach to
hold the team together, we were scored on seve ral Limes and the gam e ended
19 to 0. On Saturday, December 7th, the stron g Lynchburg tea m arrived
in the Magic City with high hopes, but were easily cru sh ed by a score of 25
to 6. This ended our schedule but owing to Blac ksburg' s challenge for a
game, we went to Blacksburg to play for the Stale Championship, but after
splashing around in the mud and water for an hour. the gam e ended. neither
team having gained any satisfaction as no one had scored. This only served
to heighten the rivalry between the two schools, so on New Y car' s Day Blacksburg came here fully expecting to carry off the State Championsh ip, but were
sorely disappointed, returning home hanging on to the little end of a 7 to O
sco~e. T his proved to be one of the most successful seasons in many years,
having lost only one out of six games, which gave us the S tate Championship.

W";\ft E were able to schedule but five games this year owing to the influenza
'0:.J\!J epidemic, and, although we won only one of the five games, our team
really did better work than these scores indicate. Captain Sheahan
was the only letter man back. The rest of the material being comparatively
new, and having no coach to rouse this material into shape, we could not be
expected to turn out a championship team.
In our first game with Lynchburg we held them to a low score and in our
second game with Danville we defeated them; but after that everything went
the other way. Danville beat us in a return game and Lynchburg and
R.-M. A. defeated us by large scores.
Every man on the team played good ball and these defeats were brought
about solely by the lack of a coach. It is hoped that in the future R. H. S.
may have a coach for this branch of her athletics.

Girls' Basket-Ball Team, 1918-19

T H E TEAM

110) LEASE

do not think that this little opening paragraph is an apology,

~ for it certainly is not- the girls on this team have nothing to be ashamed

of in their basket-ball season. To outsiders. the season might appear to
be a failure but to one who has experienced the trials and tribulations of any
organization struggling to get along without a leader, will reaclily say that
this team was not a failure but a great success. We did not have a coach, that
is the beginning and end of our troubles. Some thought that we would find
it difficult to obtain games, but I tell you- they were mistaken, every school
in this State was proud to play Roanoke, why they even thought it an honor to
be defeated by the "Magic City T eam."
Our firs t game was with Bluefield and to tell a little secret-we had great
hopes o f winning that game until two days before it was to happen, when our
star forward suddenly decided to have an attack of appendicitis- of course
we don't blame her, but we did think the appendici tis should have waited
until after our first game anyway. Those West Virginians evidently had the
same hopes that we did, without the appendicitis, so they won the game. It was
a hard-fought battle. Every "man" did her beEt. Miss Mundy was the
lucky one, who made first goal for R oanoke.

MISS MUNDY THROWS THE Fl AST COAL

We are a mighty accommodating bunch of girls. Now that is not bragging, but just the honest truth. Blacksburg, who has been accustomed to play
on the big V. P. I. floor with all those "kadets" to cheer them on, heard about
the fame of Roanoke's team and they began to get nervous for they knew they
wouldn't have a bit of chance on our little floor so they asked us to play them a t
the City Auditorium the same night that Blacksburg played U. N. C. We
would rather lose the game than refuse them such a little favor, so we agreed,
for we did feel sorry for those poor littl e Bl acksburg girls. So they came,
bringing with them their band and their "kadets." They felt ri ght at home
while we were very much at a disadvantage- never having practi ced o n so
large a floor. The game certainly was an exciting one- the score a t the end
of the first half being 0 to 0-and what we lacked in goal shootin g, we sure
made up in pass work. Miss Stevens, the star of the occasion, made the first
and last goal for Roanoke.
Charlottesville came to see us next, and that is the climax of our career.
If Charlottesville was not the most skilled team we played it certai nl y was the
roughest and the game was one con tinuous fight, and our forwards p ut the ball
in the baskets more times than the opposing forwards and th e result was a
victory for "US." We sympathized with the Charlottesvi ll e players a n d did
our best to make them forget their defeat. We liked the Charlottesvill e gi rl s
better than any teams we have played so far. Al l the play ers shone in this
game. Our hopes rose, and we looked forward to our next game with Blacksburg with vengeance in our eyes.

We played B lacksburg there on Sa turday night. Now Saturday night
always was a n unlucky time for us. No need to say that we were not "shaky"
wh en we got on that big slick floor for we were, but when the whistle blew
ou r streng th returned and Stevens shot a goal. Gleaves, our "star" of all
games, did great pass work, and Comer, our fai thful stand-by, led Miss A lice
Hoge a hard chase, but we are a plucky bunch and danced away all our grief
a fter the game to the music of "The L ast Chord Orchestra."

THE O NLY WAY MISS COLEMAN COULD K EEP UP WITH M I SS KE SL ER AT BLACKSBURG

Our nexl two games were with Lynchburg and Charlottesville. Although
we did not win the game with L ynchburg, the team did better work as a whole
than in any other game, and we were very much encouraged when we started
for Charlottesville the next morning. Our entire team did good work until
the very end of the game, but C harlottesville must have been a little better
for they carried off the colors, and we, for the second time, had to dance away
o ur sorrows.

OUR L ITT L E CENTER TERFW AT LAST MEETS HER SUPER I OR AT CHARLOTTESVILLE

"All 's well that ends well." If that old saying holds true, our season was
a great success, for it did end well. Our last game was played here with

L ynchburg. It was the most exciting game of the season, the score bei n g 12
to 14 in favor of "R. H. S." E very player was al h er best, Miss S tevens
making the two goals the last two minutes of the game. W e've ch a nged o ur
minds, we like the L ynchburg girls best now. They kn ow how to take a
defeat and so do we-from experience.

In a quest for Ads.
These shoes were worn,
And as Roanoke sil'eel pads
They ma:y be l?nown.
'Twas the same slorJJ everJJwhere,
"M one:y scarce, business poor."
Each time the same-110 variation there
As slealthilJJ we slid oul the doot.
So once more our wearJJ fe el
The f:&gt;avements would trace,
A few Ads. lo seek
That success lJJe might face.
The fight lJJas hard, the marches dreary,
A picture in J)our mind our struggle's drown
As o'er the task we grew wearJJ;
But victor]) was our pawn.
And nolJJ that the baiile is won,
Do J)ou thin!? it anJ)thing small
As over these /:&gt;ages J)ou con
To wear oul shoes for an annual?

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

OF

JOHN P. MAUZ Y
DIED JANUARY 19, 1920

John P. Mauzy was born near Charlottesville, Va., January I, 1848.
After having received his A. B. and A. M. degrees at Randolph-Macon College in Ashland , Virginia, he entered the teaching profession .
located in Roanoke as Principal of Commerce Street School.

In 1890, he

It was in that

building, in 1891, that the IHigh School was organized with Professor Mauz y as
principal and M Cora M Board assistant.
iss
.

It was largely due to his efforts

that the High School was started and, quoting Superintendent Rust, it was
"Under his administration the school rose to the foremost rank among simi la r
schools in the State-a proud monument to his enterprise and ability as an instructor." It was not by precept but by daily example that he instilled into
the minds and hearts of youths, now men and women , the democratic principles
and virtues o! life-living for others, being sincere and genuine, manifesting his
dislike for sham, and exercising great patience and self-control under most trying
and vexatious circumstances.
He was principal of the Roanoke High School from the time of its organization until 1900. For the last sixteen years he was principal of the Madison
Heights School, Memphis, Tennessee, a position which he held at the time of
his death, which occurred January 19, 1920.
He has achieved success who has lived well, who has gained th e respect
and admiration of intelligent men and women, who has left the wo rld better
than he found it, who has always looked for the best in others and given the
best he had, whose life was an inspiration, whose memory is a benediction.

Oh. Dear Old High, we love you,
And will be lrue lo you!
You've been our Alma Maler:
We'll all love you forever;
But now we' re leaving.
And no onr knows how we're grieving.

Our journey here we've ended.
Thru thorny paths we've go ne,
And when thru life we're walking
Of Senior dnys we'll be ta lking
And our C lass of '20
Of wh om our Profs. received a p lenty.

We have lo haslen away.
And lake our places lo-day,
But we'll dream forever, of old R. H. S.

C lass Poem
A great old, grand old school is ours
We now must leave behind,
And though you search, }lea, far and wide,
None belier will ,You find.
And a great old, grand old Class is ours,
This dear old Class of '20,
We are Seniors wise and dignified
But full of fun a plenty.
W e have worl~ed and toiled at classes hard
For years-da:y after daJ),
But thelJ are finished, one and all;
W e ;land at the end of the way.

Into many paths of usefulness
Our Class DJill have lo part,·
Out into this world lo serve
W e'll go UJith ready heart.

But along DJith DJork are memories sDJeet
Of these days DJe've spent together;
So full of laughter, joy and fun,
Through fair and stormy 'OJea ther.

And faithful workers UJe DJi/l be,
Strong and sturdy and true,
R ead}) to taclele the many things
Tha t a'OJail us there lo do.
So high and clear and true will be
The standards DJe profess,
That all the DJorld UJill thanldul be
For our dear R. H . S.
So go DJe east. or go we DJest.
Whate'er be our direction.
Our R oanoke H igh of all the schools
Will hold our hearts' affection.

The Spirit of 1920
~ T'S nice to have been a Senior in 1920 ! In thi s e leve nth volume of ACORNS OF ROANOKE , we do want you to loo k into
~ all of our faces, read our commen ts o f each other, smil e at our
r(~ , It\~ jokes, our pranks, our foolishness, and then h o n est ly confess
L~
~ that you would have loved to have b~en a 1920 Senior ! But
~ &lt;i
listen! I do want to whisper softly in your ea r a nd t ell you
what, besides all of the jolly fun and memories, has made me happy to h ave
been a member of this great Class of '20. I am glad, that ins tead of the o ldfashioned taskmasters, that we have had true, human and sympa th e ti c men a nd
women to guide us. They have appealed to us rather tha n driv e n us, directed
rather than scolded us. Indeed, we have regarded them as comrades, pals,
and best of all, true friends. We are most grateful to them for al 1 th ey have
done for us, and most of all, for the way in whi ch they have do n e it. While
attempting to be true to our various classroom obligations, w e feel that we
have acquired initiative, experience and poise in participating in the vario us
organizations opened to us in our Senior year. In the Girls' Club we h ave
won the comradeship and esteem of High School gi rl s outside our Class. The
responsibilities we assumed in these organizations have been elem ent s in our
development. In short, there have been a thousand opportunities open to
"1920 Seniors of R. H. S." And in taking advantage of them, we fee l tha t
we have gained much. Gratefully and reluctantly we take our leave from High
School walls that have opened to us all such splendid opportuniti es.

WINONA RUTH ARMENTROUT

"Wrcalltcd l!Ji/lt smiles ancl winning li&gt;ays.

~he's

tlic girl for us."

Ruth is one of the girls that is mo.;t loved in our Senior Class. Her
charming personality, kind and gentle manner of quie tly en tering into
one·~ alTeclions has won for her the friendship of every one of her fellow s tude nts. Her stud ious, serious mind is not used in making hun·
dreds for herself alone; her help has led many enligh tened minds to
classes. \X'i th an abundance of schoo l spirit, every game finds her on
t.he side lin es shou tin g with all the power o f hu lun gs for o ld R. 1-1. S.
Ruth is very fond of housekeeping and we've often heard her say that
"The way to a man's heart is through his stomach." \Ve cannot help
but think tha t's why she is going to college next year 10 take a course in
Domes tic Science! But whateve r course in li fe Ruth undertakes she
has the heartiest wishes of C lass '20. M. \V. L. S.; G. C.; R. C.; A . A.

RUTH BEERY

" Full of mi~chicf, frolic arrd fun,
A Trocnliclli Ccnlur:y Girl."
Ruth , bettn known to her pals as Berry. has only been with u~ a part
of her Hi gh School career. but we feel like we have always known her.
We are much indebted to her for the work she has done as Manager of
the Basket-Ball Team and the success she has made of it. \Ve a lso know
her as one of our best players. \Vhen Berry ge ls in "fighting trim" m a
game her forward has no chance a t a ll- "tho she's small. she's fierce."
She claims to be a man-haler, but just ask any gi rl on the learn and they
can tell you differently. Just any time we find her dreaming with her
thoughts seemingly mi lt's away, and if you mention th e name of a "li ttl e
boy" here in town she jumps and looks guilty. So now w e bid Ruth
farewell and wish her success as she leaves old R. H . S. and enters
Martha Washington College. A . A.; R. C.; G. C . ; Mgr. Girls' B.

Clara is a lypical gi rl of lhe '20 Class, brighl and charming, joyous and
gay. We all know when Clara graces the doors of old High by 1he "Oh,
hello, Cu1ie," or "Gel lhe shovel and pul her ou1." As President of M.
W. L. S. she has had success unexccllcd. She always does her sha re,
especially when it comes lo rooting for R. H. S. nnd taking an aclive

CE.ORCE \VALTON COMER

''Time lras made tlrcc 11Jlrat thou art. a cave
For oll&gt;ls lo roost in."
It may be that, as the owl is the bird of wisdom, \Valton has acquired
great wisdom through time; or it may be that his cranium is a cave fi t
on ly for an owl's roost. However, we would suggest that the reader
should take the former view. \Vallon realized tha t to get a good education he must leave his native Vinton and come to Roanoke High lo startle us with his origina lity. Let us hope that there are none like him; one
is enough to contend with. His robust determination to have a good time
led him to cut £ome lively capers when it was decided that Seniors s~ouid
not be graded on deportment. Walton is thinking of attending V. M . 1.,
and no doubt Roanoke Coun ty shall hear of him. R. C.; A . A.; J. L.

ANN IE GLADYS COOK

"Pacle up your troubles in your old lenit bag
And smile, ~mile, smile."
Here 's to Gladys. a happy combination of humor and common sense.
Some think she is reserved in her manner, but just wait unti l you know
her, and you'll find a jolly, true companion. Gladys has loads of school
spirit, and is ever ready to do her share to heap honors on R. 1-1. S.
Nothing ever worries Gladys, in fact, not even Geometry ?-and History?? She always comes from class with a smile, regardless of (100).
And as for being late. that is a regular occurrence, but we all know 'tis
with an end in view- ??-.
The short three years that she has been
with us have won for her a place of high esteem in the Class of '20, who
wish her the gr('atest success in her college career next year. C. C.; A.

A.; M. W. L. S.; R. C.

FRANCIS BRITT COMER

"For a' that and a' I/rat,
A man's a man for a' that."
Francis ha.s a sunny disposition, which en.a bles him to forget all his
troubles and continue to tread the pa th of life as 1f they never existed.
Though he does not take an active part in Class a~livities, he always gives
them his heartiest support. The Class wishes him success at Y. P. I..
where he intends to con tinue his education. A . A.; R. C.

CLAUD IN E CATHER I NE CUNDIFF
"She's lilllc ancl she's ilainl)I.
Sire's moclcsl and sire's slry."

C laudine, better known to her friends as "Dick." is one of the sweetest girls in the C lass. To one who did not know her well she would
seem to be a perfect example of all a Senior shou ld be. In Study Hall
one rarely sees her talk:n g but always seems very studious and ever ready
to help some onc else with the ir lessons. She never cats in school and
to all appearances she is dignity personified. But these are only outward appearances. Just talk lo he r about five minnutes and your illusion about he r dignity will be shallered. H er d isposition is as sunny
a nd b right as her hair, whic h is the envy ,of many. \ Vi th such char·
acleristics. success awaits Claudine in wha tever path of Ii Fe she may
choose, and the very besl wishes of the Class of '20 go wi th her. R.

Mary seeks neither populari ty nor honors. She sµenJs her time attending
to her own alfairs, thoroughn!:$s resulting. She is likcd by all : the Faculty as well as 1he students. Her popularity is due to her kind, genial
and unaffec ted manner. Few are b lessed with such sterling I rai ls; she has
a kind word for all and is ever willing lo serve, to the be;l of he1· ability, whe rever she may be need ed. Mary has not, as yet, fully decided
what her fu ture endeavors shall be. Her forte is the piano, and doubtless she will pursue a course of music. It mailers not what she may

NANCY WILLIS DOUTHAT

"Of sJ•irils gay. and l(inJ/y heart.''
Nancy. better known :u Miss Mamye Reynolds, talks so much a_nd so
fast. save when she is called on in English, that few people without un·
trained cars can understand her. But to see her talk is just as fascinat·
ing as to hear what she says. Every one is crazy about Mamye. but
few know wh ere she got her nnmc. She works very hard at a profitable,
bu t very humane, business. She is the tormen t of Miss Noell's soul the
firs t stu dy period. bu t if Miss N oell would slop and liste n lo her once
she'd be so ench nn ted she'd never cuss Mamye out again. Mamye says
she intends to go to Randolph-Macon next year. H er fate is to be a
c uhured, well-bred rnun chy. H e r Senior year hasn't been exactly an
evidence of fatalism. H ere's lo hoping that when she reaches rnun chyhood she'll wear feathers on her hat and overshoes whenever ii snows.

FLORENCE ELINOR FUQUA
"Far mall we search before we find
A lrcari so gentle and so leind."

Every one will agree that these f.,w lines are typical of Florence. She
might have been larger in s tature if she had not set aside so much for that
big, kind heart. She h;u traveled through these four years of High
SchOQI with a calmness 1hnt nil of us do not possess. Though she docs nol
"love" lo s ludy ns some do, when it is time to sludy she is never seen
doing any1hing else. She is one of the neatest girls in the C lass, for
there is never so much as a hair out of place. Florence says she would
like 10 be a nurse. but she is going to sacrifice all of that for a more noble

\Vhen "Sippy" dances, whirling a round on the lips of her toes, all

Within a human brcasi."
Margaret came to us last fall from New Mexico but during her brief

personality. She is very patient, painstaking and conscientious in her
work. She is never known to hurry or lo worry. By her kindness and
will'ngness to help others she has become an ever presen t help in time
of trouble. \Ve often wonder what Margaret is thinking about when
she gets that dreamy, far-away look in her eyes- perhaps it's a lad
back in Albuquerque on the plains of New Mexico- or maybe g lorious
dreams of future greatness. Margaret has not decided her future yet,

der of our Chemistry Class, but, oh, those lunches in the S tudy Hall!

with sympathy and thought she is a true loyal friend. One endowed

GEORGE I. VOGEL
"/ dare do all that may become a man,
Who dares do more is none."
George or "Pop" ns he is affectionately called has been a potent clement in old High School, and his jovial and wholehearted laugh will
be missed exceedingly when he has left.. For four long years George
has been to school every day, and ground out the rou~ine of study t~at
seemed so superRuous to him, just to have the privilege of spending
th ose four brief quar ters on the gridiron. But in whiling away in the
schoolroom the dull intervening time that comes between the football
seasons, he absorbed. quite a bit of knowledge. He also has a marked
aptitude for art, being a very clever cartoonist. \Vith such versatile
abili ty and allrnc tive p ersonality, George is sure to win in the big
world ahead that is beckoning to him. \Ve expect big things from him
- as big as George himself. A. A.; B. C.; Ft. B. '17-'18-'19; Athletic Mgr. o f ACORNS '20; Pt. of H., I.

An Appreciation
HE Senior Class of Roanoke High School feel that the
ACORNS OF ROANOKE, '20, would be incomplete without an
expression of appreciation to our Principal, Mr. W. E. P a rsons, of all that he has meant to us.
D eep in the heart of every member of the Senior Class there
is a keen sense of that generosity, tolerance and interest which,
throughout the years of our High School career, he has unfailingly shown us.
With what tireless patience has he not forgiven our faults! With what infinite
kindness and gentleness has he not directed our foo tsteps! Through many
vicissitudes he has been a faithful friend. His unshaken loyalty has gleamed
like a lamp in the desert. With our smallest cares he has shown sympathetic
understanding, offering strength and encouragement.
As a principal he has been a splendid example of one who, in full authority,
could still retain the fellowship of students under him.
In the hearts of the boys, he shall remain not only a principal a nd a friend,
but also a man whom each could count on for a square deal and justice under
all circumstances.
Our wish for Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors is that in their remaining
High School years, they, too, may have that same kind, unselfish hand to g uide
them as did the Senior Class of 1920.

Senior Class History
N the beginning of the fall term of 19 I 6, our '20 Class of
Roanoke H igh entered upon its momentous school career.
The years intervening between that time and the h our when we
should become Seniors seemed almost an eterni ty! At Junior
High we had reached the highest point of dignity a nd h ad not
failed to make it known to all those below us in years and
grades. This awe-inspiring feeling left us, however, on entering Roanoke
High, for we were soon made, siniply forced, to realize our real station in lifethat of a "Rat." It is needless to say that our only dread was our superiorsthird and fourth-year students-the last named of which made us tremble with
awe. Then there was that even blacker cloud on our horizon- th e F acuity !
We are not ashamed to admit now that there was a decided drop of the heart
and a quiver in each knee as we appeared before each member of that au gust
body- famed for zeroes. They did handle us a bit roughly, impressing on us
how very ignorant we were.
Spring came, and with it exams, and the close of our "Soph" year. The
next fall we entered with a bit more assurance as Juniors. We were slowly
gaining the height to which we all had worked hard for! Oh! 'twas wonderfu l
to be a J unior!! We began to realize we were children no longer and much
depended on us. Can we not feel our importance when we realize that we are
the very first Junior Class to organize, elect officers, and transact businessthus creating Class consciousness in High School. Our first great achievement
as an organized Class was the entertainment of the Seniors. We will have to
admit that our pride grew to vanity then. W hat an honor ! The pleasure far
exceeded the enormity of the task, although chills of fear a ttended our first
journey into these unknown waters. Will our pride reach a downfall if we
boast some more when we look at our success and the circumsta nces under
which we achieved so much? Our C lass had a decided setback, a downfall.
which was almost a calamity. There was such a rage of the " flu" tha t the
schools were closed. But with determination we braved the storm and came
out victorious.

Some of the "Sophs" had stayed away and our ranks were thinned but
yet we were still loya l J uniors. As we toiled, the days flew by and the end
seemed almost near to which we had striven to attain. In the fall of '19 we
became Seniors. How grand and glorious to be called the "Senior Class of

R.H. S. !!"
Of course all of us have not been stars, but some have claimed the highest
honors in the life of the school-some as officers in the literary societies and
clubs and others in athletics.
Now tha t we have won the goal at last, as we cast a backward, lingering glance, we do not regret the time spent, but are loath to bid farewell. For
the untiring efforts of our honored and efficient faculty. we have a deep sense
of gratitude. In traversing the many roads of life, may the teachings which
they have given us here serve as our guiding light throughout the future years.
It is our wish that the succeeding classes may be even more successful than the
1920 Senior Class that now reluctantly leav~. carrying with us only happy
memories of R . H. S.

With happiness we welcome it- and }1el

With comrades, fun, we never can forget,
And sadness mingles with the smiles ar;d flowers.
Upon the threshold of new hopes, a/lame
With eagerness we stand, fain see aforWhere some perchance adorn the hall of Fame
And one discovers some lost wandering star.
How some will wrest the secrets from the earth,
And some will /mow the sweetness of the lnead
So earned by mani10od's truest test of worth,
And some life's fragrant paths will lightl:y tread.

With energy, high aims and purpose strong
The goal will soon be reached. The days we spent

Twenty Years Hence
RAVELING has ah,•ays been my mania, and when l had the
chance to visit every place of importance in the United States
I immediately seized the opportunity. I had many experiences
and met many old friends.
One morning, while wandering through a beautiful park in
a large city, I thought I saw Amandtine Gleaves in the distance, wheeling a perambulator. In my eagerness to see her I tripped over an
old man in a wheel chair, upsetting his equilibrium and the gravity of some
small boys near by. Sure enough it was "Tiny."
"Hello, there !" I cried, "do you know me?"
"Why I reckon I do! It's Mildred H-ol- !"
"Yes and no," I interrupted. "I changed the last part of my name several
years ago. Are these yours?" I went on, pointing to the two lusty infants in
the carriage- they were twins.
"Yes, are they not beautiful?" she asked, with a proud smile.
"Y-y-yes, they are" (not wishing to dampen her enthusiasm with an assertion to the contrary). "What are their names?"
"Maximilian Emanuel and Glorianna Patricia," she answered. "We call
the boy Max for short, and the girl Glory Patra."
That evening I accepted an invitation to dine at her home. It happened
that the soup was burned, and in great irritation, she bade the butler call the
new "French Chef" to her.
"I haven't seen him yet, as my husband just hired him yesterday while I
was visiting in the country," she said to me.
When the chef came, in fear and trembling, we both found, to our surprise, that it was Orren Clark. On the strength of old acquaintance, Orren
was not severely reprimanded.
After dinner we went to the services of a very beautiful church near her
home. Adelbert Kennett was the pastor. ll1e comfortable nap I had during
Adelbert's sermon refreshed me very much, after the strenuous day, until the
collection plate was rudely poked under my nose by Ernest Brown, a prominent deacon in the same church.
Amandtine told me that Mabel Dillon lived just around the corner, so the
next day I went to see her. She had just purchased a "Stevens Rattletrap"

model automobile and wanted me to go riding wi th her. The machine was
made by Ernest Stevens, successor to Henry Ford in the automobile industry.
I did go riding with Mabel and everything \.vould have gone well if she had
not lost control of her car whiJe trying to dodge a mule, a little negro boy, and
a rooster, all at the same time, in the road. We went straight through some
farmer's barbed wire fence, into the field, not stopping till we reached the
farmhouse itself. The irate farmer came out, shaking his fist and using choice
language. We were terribly surprised to see that the farmer was none other
than Bill Williamson. When he saw who it was he stopped his gesticulations
and entreated us to come in.
"My wife is a good cook," he said by way of entreaty .
"Who is your wife, Bill, I didn't know you were married!" I exclaimed.
"I married Miss Beebee," he answered.
"You did!" both Mabel and I gasped.
"Why-y-yes, you know I didn't have the heart to refuse her when she
asked me for my name that d-day in Study Hall," stammered Bill. blushing
divinely.
We accepted Bill's invitation and had a good time. As Mabel's car was
put out of commission by its wild ride, Bill very kindly offered us his oxen to
pull us in. So we were pulled back home in state by a couple of oxen. (It
took us half the night, though.)
The next place I visited was Chicago and the papers were full of a trial
going on-the lawyer for the defense being Edwina Sanders. They were
trying Harold Scott for the murder of his mother-in-law.
Greatly interested, I visited the court-room while they were proceeding with
the trial. Valiantly did Edwina plead for Harold. Tears rose to my eyes.
Tears were running in rivers down my own cheeks (helped on bv a bag of
strong onions held by a country man sitting next to me). The ensuing
moments were full of breathless suspense. The jury was about to pronounce
the sentence. All leaned forward, and as the words "Not Guilty" were pronounced, a great shout arose. I shook hands with Edwina and gave her my
congratulations, and Harold, too, after the proceedings were over. How
proud I was that I had once gone to school with this brilliant lawyer woman !
I left Chjcago soon after, and some time later found myself exclaiming at
the wonders of the Colorado Canyons. At the hotel I met a party of prominent tourists. By this time I knew that if I went to the ends of the earth I'd
find some of my old High School acquaintances there! In the party were
Ruth Vaughan, now Countess de Nuttings, her husband being French ambassador to this country; Sarah Robertson, Bolshevik princess and premier dan-

seuse of lhe new Russian ballet; D orothy P ace. who had married the Prince
of Wales; and lastly, Margie D avis. now Mrs. L e Roy Hamburg Archibald.
wife o f New York's foremost dog fancier.
Many were the pleasant hours we had talking over old times and how
everything had turned out. Indeed, so loath were we to leave each other that
we all joined toge ther the next few months, stopping at Washington, D. C,
for a breathing spell.
The first day at Washington I shook hands with Thelma Fringer, meeting
her on Pennsy lvania Avenue. and asked her what she was doing.
' Tm president of the United Order of Cheese Makers and secretary of the
H. A. M.," she replied.
"You poor thing !" I exclaimed, " I know how busy you must be."
H ard ly had I left T helma when I met Helen J ohnson. She told me she
was teaching history to a lot of boneheads there in Washington. having as
assistants Margaret McNeace, Gladys Cook and Florence Fuqua. Helen
asked me if I was going to the White House ball.
" I should say I am-why I wouldn't miss it," I replied.
The Whi le H ouse ball was held a few days later and never have I seen
a more brilliant affair. The artistic decorations \Vere made under the auspices
of Helen Craddock, famous decorator. and her corps of excellent women
workers, namely, Clara Duncan, Edith Stevens, Claudine Foster and Hazeltine Wright.
I shook hands with Richard R edden, our good-looking president. Richard
had had one chance out of a thousand to be president of the United Stales. but
that o ne chance he had made use of and was now a great man.
I took my stand between two old cronies who knew everybody and were
free with their cri ticisms.
"Look! here co mes Washington's merry widow out hunting for more conquests. She is now trying to ensnare the hearts of General Walton Comer.

one, viewing the widow through a large lorgnette.

glide gracefull y in. leaning on the arm of Walton Comer. Behind them came
two ladies wearing the new and fashionable "shredded wheat" gowns. They
looked stunning. One of the old cronies beside me made the remark, "Now
here come Clarice Hayman and Theresa Nash. '"'earing those newfangled
gowns from the Fiji Islands-how extravagant!"
Just at this juncture there was quite a little buzz of excitement around the
ballroom. I looked and saw the cause. Pniden Shockley, the sensational

poet, was entering with his handsome actress wife. Thelma Ric hardson. I
hardly recognized him. He wore his hair long and wore dark blue goggles.
What a change! Who ever thought of Prude n Shockley. of Hi gh School
days, in the light of a long-haired poel ! ! But it was so- time mak es many
changes.
The next arrivals were the famou s spinsters o f Saxony. Thirteen o f them
had banded together, S'..vearing to hate me n forever a nd I ivc in peace in th e
little village of Saxony, in Massachusetts. Great ly surpri sed w as I to see
Ruth Armentrout, Eileen Hubbard, Vivian Owe n, Isa bel P ay n e. D ainese
P ettus, Eva Sanders, Kathryn Steckman. Anni e I rby, Marga re t H e rrman.
Fra nces Cocke, Minnie Freese and G ertrude Carter. I thou ght what a pity
they were such man-haters when th ey could have ma d e some m e n fi ne wives.
The band was playing a divine waltz., "Forl orn L ove." composed by the
eminent Roy Huddleston, when a tall, good-looking youn g man asked m e to
dance with him. It was Bob McClanahan . a prosperous b a nk er o f H ooker
City. In spite of the fact that B ob danced on my fee t more th an o n his o\vn.
I enjoyed the dance.
Everybody in the room was a ttracted by a certa in coupl e w ho danced
beautifully together. They were Frances C ritz Landen, wido,v of th e late
multi-millionaire, J ohn Rudolph L anden, and Ri chard M oore . one of N ew
York's expert detectives. having assisted in rounding up o ne o f the toughest
gangs of moonshiners ever known. I was grieved lo learn thal the moo~'
shiners were William Devin, Edward Tutwiler. G eorge Vogel, William Ellis
and Pierpont Morgan , of High S chool days. No one, years ago, could have
looked in their innocent faces and guessed they would eve r turn ou t so.
Before the evening was over I had met a doz.en o ld frie nd s. C harlotte
Tiplady, the famed lady ~cientist, who had discovered som e new germ s; Ruth
Shannon, an inventor of a new kind o f toolhpick. and Ruth B ee ry. a b ook'
sell er, the pet pest of business men all over the counlry.
V ery tired and sleepy was I when I thankfully pu ll ed Lh e bed cove rs ur
around me that night and dozed blissfu lly into the la nd of drea m s. I spent th~
night at the home of Margaret Smith, who wo uld not hea r o f m e goin g b.ac

ette between her lips, while she caressed a rather vicious-looking snake. I
wanted lo leave right away but Margaret wouldn't let me.
"Victoria, how can you stand that thing?" I asked in disgust.
"Ah, it is my dearest possession-dear little hissing, shining thing," she
cooed in a soft voice, as she stroked its head.
A t thi s I shuddered while I stuffed my handkerchief in my mouth to keep
from shrieking. Seeing my evident disturbance, Victoria smiled sarcastically
and ringing for her maid, she bade her put "William Henry" in the garden to
enjoy the su n a liltle while. I laughed-I couldn ' L help it. I t was the first
lime I had ever heard a repti le called by such a name.
Victoria told us many wonderful tales of her conquests, and we listened
in wide-eyed interest until it grew late and then we rode home.
Thal night I went to a concert. Helen Betelle played the piano, J udith
Junkin sang and Clara Black recited. One piece that Helen played was
call ed "The Tempest," composed by Crace T empleton. It was a tempest
and I thought Helen would upset the piano, as she raced from one end of the
keyboard to the other. As it was, she broke the loud pedal and unscrewed
th e top o f the piano stool. I t was thrilling, but hard on the nerves. Judith
sang severa l beautiful selections all by the same composer, M argaret Taylor.
The beauty of the melody and the mellowy cadence of Judith's voice was
delightful. as well as soothing to the nerves. Clara recited some Yery enterta ining pieces. One ,.vas very humorous and made us all laugh. Indeed,
Agnes Robertson, the novelist, who was in the audience. had to be carried out.
Luckily, Eula L ee Harne. Baltimore's famous nurse, was present and she soon
broke up Agnes's fit of hysterics.
As th e crowd dispersed after the performance, I noticed in the throng
Louise Wright accompanied by he1· husband, Dr. W alter Skeate March, known
a ll over the world as the person who cured the French president of chronic
gout. H e was a tall and impressive man, reminding me of an ancient portrait
of Lochinvar.
B efore leaving Washington f visited a convent there. Among the nuns
I found Thelma Wertz. I asked her the reason for leav in g the world. with
a ll its pomp and glory. She replied tearfully that it was a disappointment in
love.
One evening. at a reception given by Miss Mary D avis. now Mrs. Greenwall Hall ock. a popular young society matron, I met Frank Craig, O\·r ner of an
aeroplane factory. Frank had lost his slender. girlish figure of olden days and
was now quite a heavy-weight, Lipping the scales a t two hundred and sixty-five
pounds. H e informed me that he intended Aying lo England the next week

with a crowd in his new monster-sized aeroplane and invited me Lo go along.
I accepted the invitation for the next Wednesday.
Well the next Wednesday came and an eager, cx~itcd crowd \\'as on hand
prepared for the flight. When the machine rose graceful ly from the ground
my hair rose with it. I was not the only one who grew frightened, for some
of the other passengers were scared also. The crowd included Alberta Erb
and her husband, the Honorable L ord Bun ting. Sa lly Wheelwright. Dr.
Louis Showalter, Ralph Masinter, Frances Gibbons Thomas. wife of Senator
Thomas, Ben Meeker, Boyd Pierce, a lawyer, Una Carte r and Mae Young.
Alberta wanted to jump out, but being strapped in, decided lo scream instead.
F ranees, with great presence of mind, drew out of her travelin g bag a bottle of
camphor and threw the contents into Alberta's face- only it proved to be a
bottle of ink instead of camphor. F ranees had gotten the wrong bottle.
Soon after this, two cylinders in Frank's machine began to knock and suddenly the plane with its passengers had crashed to the ground. Fortunately.
no one was hurt, but Ben Meeker's suitcase (in which he had his new patent
fly paper to introduce on European markets) mysteriously opened. and fly
paper Hew everywhere. Through no fault of our own. we found o urselves
all stuck up with the stuff.
Ralph M asinter, being proficient in Spanish (he tau ght it al Columbia
University). said a few hot things quite openly in that language, knowing that
we could not understand.
Never could we have been separated from that ny paper if a welcome rain
storm hadn't come up. And although we were drenched. Ay paper no longer
stuck to us.
The place where we had fallen was a large field right nea r a Lown of fairly
large proportions. Frank got aid from here, and insid e o f a short space of time
we had started on our journey again-minus two passengers, Mae Young and
Una Carter. They did not care to risk their lives again, even for a vaca tion.
so they said. So Una went back home to her old job as c hie f stenographer
to the president and Mae to hers as star reporter of the "Daily News," owned
and operated by Carlyle M cCraw and Normer Howell.
Without any more mishaps we arrived at Liverpool, England, and from
thence we journeyed to London.
At London, SalJy bought most of her trousseau, for her marriage to Richard
Kelley, mayor of New York, was scheduled for the following spring. The
gowns were wonderful creations designed by Claudine C undiff a nd made
under the supervision of Nell Riddle, daughter-in~law of L ad y Du ff-Gordon.
While in London I remember meeting the following notables of Europe

and their wives who were attending the great London exhibition, namely:
Fred Stone, president of Czecho-Slovakia, and his wife, Elsie Bell; Andrew
Newcomb, emperor of China, and his wife, Reva Urquhart; Tudor Garrett,
queen of Hawaii. and Rose Hardy, wife of the president of Jugo-Slovakia.
Others were George Stanley, the Turkish Sultan, and seven of his wives,
Mavis Taylor, Mary Patsel, Lucille Lipscomb, Virgie Boyer, Beetris Shockley, Elizabeth Davis and Cecile Ward.
We started home in the aeroplane on Friday, the 13th. Why F rank
wanted to start on that day is a mystery. But, anyway, on the second day
of our journey those same two cylinders began to knock again and once more
the machine came down, not to earth, but to water-not with a crash, but a
splash. We fell in the ocean. There ensued a terrible time with every one
struggling madly in the water. We probably all would have been drowned if
a United States ship hadn't happened along at that time and fished us all out.
The captai n of the vessel proved to be L ewis Minter, another old friend of
High School days. He laughed heartily at our soaked appearances. I'm
afraid I said some rather hard things to Frank Craig about what a bum motor
his flying machine had and what a bum factory his ""as to have turned out such
a machine.
On board the ship was General Warren Pershing (famous son of an
equally famous father, John Pershing) and his wife, Mary Stuart Hurt. I
quite fell in love with Warren. Another eminent personage on board was
Virginia H amilton, world-famed ballet dancer.
It was not long until we saw the statue of Liberty giving us a smiling welcome home. On shore we bade each other "adieu" and went our various
ways.

The faculty Goes to Heaven
HE members of the F acuity of R . H. S. were making their '"'ay
excitedly and with a great deal of talking and quarreling towards
.
the gates of heaven.
~. ~
"You won't get in, surely," said Miss Beebee to Miss Huff.
~ (~ .. You aren't a graduate of Goucher. You've never seen the sun
~rise on the English Channel. You've never been to Westmin-

~l tl'ti!.lic:&gt;'~

ster :t- :.£. ¥- ¥ "
"Well, don't be so sure you 'II get in, Mary Elder Beebee," broke in
Miss Board. "And you, Rhoda Noell, I've known of many times when you
allowed pupils to chew gum in your study period, an unheard-of thing. And
as for Alto Funkhouser, and that McDonald man, they don't know the first
principles of discipline in public schools."
"Oh, stop fussing." said Miss Hayward, 'Tve a hunch we're all going to
get in, though I have my doubts about Elsie Carlisle. She dido 't teach English
anything like I did. Why, when her pupils would come to me, they were
impossible. They didn't even know what reactions were!"
"Oh, I wonder what dear Cresar will be like!" ejaculated Miss Lovelace.
"And Simon de Montford!" added Miss Calfee.
And so the conversation ran, until they reached the gate, where Miss Hayward gave an impatient little knock. St. Peter opened the ga te and looked
at her.
"What do you want, little girl?" he asked.
"To get in. of course, you stupid old bumpsky I"
He looked her over, squeezing his beard.
" I have my credits," she said, tapping an impatient little foot. " I have an
A. M. from Columbia."
St. Peter, bowing low, ushered her in. Then he turned to Miss Beebee.
" Do you want to get in?" he asked her.
"Certainly, and I am a graduate of Goucher. P oor, dear St. Peter, not
having a college education you can't understand :f. !f· :f. !f. "
"Go on in," said St. Peter. " I guess she's harmless,',. he added, as she
walked in.
In the meantime, Mr. Turner had slipped in (St. Pi&gt;ter having taken him

�1920

ac orn s

of

for a cherub). and was chatting with Columbus about his third voyage to
America.
Miss Noell and Mr. P arsons went on in without being questioned. St.
Peter had received enthusiastic letters concerning them from the pupils. Miss
Carlisle, who explained that she hadn't asked for reactions from a humane
motive, but instead had asked fifty questions each year on ''Pilgrim's Progress,"
was admitted .
"What sent you up here?" asked St. Peter, as Professor Helbig
approached .
"Spanish Influenza," replied the professor, who had changed his name to
one more suitable to that altitude.
"Do you believe a miss is as good as a mile?" asked the venerable saint,
mysteriously.
" It's good logic," replied the professor.
" Then," said St. P eter, "suppose you start out and walk a mile for every
time you didn't say 'Miss' when addressing a young lady in your class!"
Whereupon the professor, muttering to himself, started on a long hike
which carried him around the globe several times, after which he was so
exhausted he literally fell through the gate.
Mr. Phelps, the next applicant. approached with a hopeful light in his
eyes and began:
"St. Peter,-the- square-on-the- hy-pot- en- use-is-equal-."
"Yes. yes," said St. Peter, "but where is your permit from the office?"
imitating Mr. Phelps. with a twinkl e in his eye. But seeing his crestfallen
look, he said, "go on in-the pupils have forgiven you."
Miss Board appeared next. "Are you looking for Heaven?" St. Peter
asked her.
"What do you think I' m looking for?" snapped Miss Board, ''a fire sale?"
St. Peter whirled his key around his forefinger, exhibiting considerable
shyness at the austerity of the lady. "Did you ever use chewing gum?''
"Certainly not!" replied she. angrily.
"Do you use profanity?" was the next question.
"M ercy. no 1 1"
..
"Well." asked St. Peter, "were you ever sarcastic to the little children in
your schoo l?"
"Sometimes," said she, with a certain amount of humility.
"Sarcasm is worse than chewing gum or profanjty," declared St. Peter.
"but go on in- you're forgiven."

Mr. Layman came forward then with a troubled face and stood before St.
Peter with downcast eyes.
"What are you?" asked St. Peter.
"A historian- I mean a teacher of history," answered Mr. Layman, confusedly.
"Have you a good history?" asked St. Peter.
"No, rotten!" replied Mr. Layman, thinking of "Cheyney 's History,"
"worst in the world."
" T hat's rather incriminating." mumbled St. Peter, down in his beard. looking at Mr. Layman's feet. "Well, you're no worse than the rest, I guess. Go
on m.
St. P eter was really kind to our Faculty, who were not so dreadful. after
all. and finally all were inside. St. Peter locked his gate and chuckled to
himself. "My, that was a bunch! What's this?" he exclaimed upon turning
around and seeing the entire F acuity chained.
"We want to go back to R. H. S. ! ! !" they sobbed.
And then I awoke.

Junior History
YEAR has passed and again the historian finds a blank page
on which to pen his records.
We, the Junior Class. began our High S ch oo l career at
Intermediate School in 191 7. There we were looked u pon as
''Seniors" and carried ourselves as such, w ith a n air that made
some of our lower classmen feel that they were making very,
very slow headway up this trail to success.
All of this was too good to last long. Thin gs worlh strivi ng for cannot
be obtained without difficulty. Affairs made a radical change as soon as
we came in sight of Roanoke High . Our tune suddenly changed from the
ragtime of the day to the good old song, "There's no p lace like home." The
boys realized their dreams had come true w hen they looked down that long
avenue of paddles, with some of those "lettered heavy-hitters" getting impatient. or when they were brought out into an amphitheater of eager-faced
upper classmen to "coocoo," or to make love to a post, while th e girls were
snubbed around until they wished themselves back at the starting place.
The rather sudden change in affairs, and not being accustomed to this way
of being received into the places we desired to go, made this H all of Knowledge a discouraging and gloomy aspect to these soldiers of fortune. We cannot say that our betters (as they called themselves) were not hospitable, for
most of their time was taken up in showing us on which floor we mi gh t find our
classrooms. We would have been most grateful had they not b een almost every
time just two floors wrong in their directions. Other times we would receive
the most warming invitation to come to the basement and become acquainted
with two gentlemen, Mr. Parallel Bars and Mr. Coal Shovel. who seemed to
be the amuser to these high and noble classmen.
As time passed on, with the help of our devoted leader, we overcame su ch
difficulties as barred our path to progress. History was made so real to us th at
our feet got cold when we were told of that win ter at Valley Forge. We
cleared our way of the great boulders "Math," when explained by our instructors (expert mathematicians) at what angle to exert our efforts. Other promoters of humanity helped these weary pi lgrims up that long a nd rugged path
to success.
As we draw nearer to our goal of "Seniordom" our path becomes smoother.
and we have more tim e to think of what we have done. We have achieved

som e success, not only in our studies, but also in athletics. Two consecu tive
seasons our teams have brought home the State foo tball championship banner.
while other honors were won by some of our numbers at track meets and literary
contests.
And now as we are ready to start on that last lap of our journey, and
having passed all requirements, we. the J unior C lass of 1920, take up that old
a nd c herished c ustom o f assuming the well-known Senior air of Roa noke Hi gh.

tr (I ~ Thad been a sultry afternoon, but now the sun was setting, and
~\~ a distant cloud gave promise of relief. All day Blinkey had
b followe? the steel r~ils and. his half-~hod feet, comin~ so. inti-

m

M

mately m contact with the ties and clinkers, had put lrnn 1~ a n
~~ irritable mood. This was not Blinkey's natural state of mmd.
He was ordinarily of an easy-going nature, believing that the
world owed him a living, but putting forth very little effort to collect the debt.
But now his attitude toward the world was decidedly changed. He saw
no reason why luck should cast luxury on many. while he, led ever on by wanderlust, was just a rolling stone. As he turned a bend in the tracks, he came
upon a party of people laughing and talking under the trees. Here was a good
example of what he had just been thinking. He quickly relraced his steps and
came up in the bushes by the very side of the frolickers. He could almost
have reached out and touched them, so close was he; his eyes bulged at the
sight of what he saw. They were a select party of picknickers from the city.
Their limousine stood by the roadside not far away. Upon a white cloth
spread upon the grass was such a feast as poor Blinkey had never seen in his
wildest dreams. The men were enjoying themselves to the limit, having
already imbibed a little too freely of the bottles in the pails of ice. One of the
men was opening a bottle as Blinkey watched. In the act of drawing a corkscrew from his pocket, he drew also, unknown to himself, a green bill. Blinkey
saw it, and his first impulse was to make a dash for it, and then bolt into the
bushes. As he was considering, the rain began to fall. T he ladies ran to the
car, and the gentlemen, gathering up most of the things, joined them, and soon
they speeded away.
Blinkey made one bound to the spot where the money lay. Short as the
interval was, it seemed a century-was it a one, would it be a live, or could it
possibly be a ten? He didn't know they went higher than that, or he wou ld
have conjectured further. When he saw what it really was, he staggered. A
FIFTY! He grabbed it, put it in his watch pocket, and fairly Aew lest they
should discover the loss and return. He took to the tracks again and soon
slowed down to his easy jog. He couldn't Lhink while running and there was
so much to think about! H e would go on now to Spodunk. But first he

would get a new suit, and spats. and Oxfords that had three buttons on the
sides, and a plug hat, and one of these swell stickpins that look just like a
diamond.
It was dark now. and the rain had settled into a steady drizzle. But he
was so engrossed in his thoughts that he was hardly aware of it. He could
imagine how the folks would look at him and that Simmons gal would sure
fall for him this time.
H e was a gentleman now, and felt very proud. It was. indeed, with a
very condescending air that he stepped from the tracks to give a passing freight
the right-of-way. He returned to the tracks when the freight had passed, but
had not gone far when he stumbled upon an obstacle across the tracks. He
took in the situation immediately. The heavy freight had torn loose a rail,
making a gap in the track. He would tell some one about it at the next station.
Far away he heard the low whistle of a coming passenger train. He must
do something himsel f. at once. But what could he do? He ran along the
tracks to w here he saw an old switch light standing, evidently long out of
service. He grabbed the lantern off and examined it. There was no wick, no
oil. He fumbled in his pocket for a match. H e found one, and only one.
The w histle blew again. much nearer this time. He hurried forward trying
to find something that the rain had not made unburnable. Not a dry thing or
piece of paper anywhere that he could risk his lone match on. He searched his
pockets for a bit of paper but found nothing. The engine was speeding down
the track. He must act quickly or in a moment the engine would reach that
breach and there ¥- :f. :f. His hand flew quickly to his watch pocket and
drew forth a crisp oblong of paper. He, in a moment more. had lit it and
thrust it into the red globe of the lantern. Would the engineer see the dim,
Aickering red li ght? Yes. he heard the grinding of the wheels as the emergency brakes went on. T he conductor jumped from the car and came to where
a moment before a streak of red had shown. and there found the torn-up
track. Soon he was joined by a throng of passengers inquiring for their benefactor, but the conductor said he had seen oo one but a slouching tramp crossing the fields toward a distant haystack.

Sophomore History
~

N the year of Our Lord 19 19, we, the destined Class of 1923,
/) started our High School career at Lee J unior High School.
~ For three years, to be in the eighth grade had been our ambition.
' l)~t W e looked forward to this as the Children of Israel looked
M
fo rward to the Promised L and, expecting it and yet fearing.
·~~""
The path of our fi rst year was filled with many obstructions, some the size o f rocks, others the size of boulders. Some proved to be
passable, w hile others were impassable.
Our pride suffered after the fust d eportment meeting when we realized
that our pride coupled with our love for pleasure was costing us dearly.
Latin and Algebra proved to be such favorites with our Class that many
had seats reserved for examinations weeks before the time. One goal is no
sooner reached than we start for another. "Such is life." After becoming
Seniors in the L ee J unior our next goal was to be a Senior in the J efferson
High School. Alas ! many sorrows were to come into our lives before this
goal was reached. As the year drew to a close we realized. as Abraham of
ol d, it was nearing our time to sojourn in a distant land- R. H. S.
The great day fin ally came for our ascension into the stately hall of learning of R. H . S. F or once our Julius Cresar came in handy and more than one
p upil quoted "O, that a man might know the end o f this day's business ere it
come ! But it sufficeth that the day will end, and then th e end is known. "
I fea r if we had known what the day held in store for us many would not have
ventured forth. Some o f our Class preferred to remain at dear old L ee Junior.
By the time we had gotten out of the door o f the school we despised our brillia nce, which had brought us to such a sad end. We envied those who
remained behind a t Home, Sweet H ome. No blazing trumpets welcomed us
to our new home, but other more enjoyable ( ?) noises.
We soon learned not to ask our Superior Classmates where various classes
were, or other informa tion, as we hoped. if we kept quiet, we might escape
being recognized as "Rats." We all said we hated being called "Rats," but
each. in his own heart. knew that he loved it.

Many members of our Class have already, in their short High School
life, distinguished themselves in athletics and literary contests. The death of
the Irving Literary Society was proclaimed after our departure. Each day
this school grows dearer to us. We are looking forward to welcoming the
"Rats" and the other members of our Class who, of their own free will,
remained behind. Our motto is "Do unto others as others did unto you.''

Raindrops
SUPPOSE the raindrops did have something to do with it,
but you could never make th at couple think so now! It
rained-not a storm. but just one of those ordinary. everyday,
steady rains, that puts everybody out of sorts and nobody in a
good humor. But it's an ill wind that blows nobody any good!
Jean was in high spirits that morning. She was about the
on ly one on the street who was. It was her business to smi le and she was
doing a rushing one that day. School had its charms for her as well as its bad
side. She did despise to get up early, but she had such a good time when she
got there. She was smiling to herself as she thought of the happenings of yesterday. Many people stopped to look at the quaint figure as it passed down
the street and many smiled to themselves. As she approached the corner of
F and Fourth Street she quickened her pace.
To Dan Whitman, rambling along F Street, the day was as dull as any
other rainy day. Nothing stirred, no other noise except the rain and that, ln
his opinion, grated on his nerves. Not only the rain but other affairs made
Dan blue to-day. He had many good qualities, but he was a spendthrift. At
college he was the life of his Class but now he would have to give it all up.
His father had given him a strict call-down that morning and told him he
would have to shift for himself.
Down from the eaves of a b uilding he was passing a naughty little raindrop
d etermined to break up such dry though ts. In looking about for a place to
land, it discovered D an's nose. As it nestled ever so softly there. Dan let out
a word entirely in accord with his mood. 111is, instead of raising his spirits,
only tended lo lower them.
Now it happened that al this moment Jean glanced at her watch. "Goodness, only five minutes!"
At that she quickened her pace and turned the corner rather abruptly
bumping straight into a well-dressed young man going in the opposite direction.
In the meanwhile, the jolt had shaken a brazen little raindrop from Jean's
umbrella and following in the footsteps of its brother, found a nice, somewhat
turned-up nose to perch upon ! Jean glanced into the young man's face as if

to beg pardon, but what she saw made her break into one of her laughing
smiles. A rather good·looking young man was scowling down on her. with a
raindrop on his nose. At the same time, Dan frown ed down at the girl. expecting to say, "Get out of the way," or something of the sort. But, instead, he
laughed out. Such a sweet face wreathed in smiles with a raindrop on her
pug nose!
Each passed on, feeling within that inexpressible warmth of feel ing tha t
mutual recognition of an absurd situation does produce. Dan actually forgot
his ill humor.
"By George, she's a dear. I hope I haven't lost her forever."
Strange to say, J ean was a bit less interested in school activities the following day. All to herself she wondered if she could possibly ever meet such a
man!
Alas, the world is small- a small, local one is, anyway. Two souls bent
on finding each other generally succeed. How very foolish to even speak in
this case of the impossible happenings! Those two raindrops were, after all,
responsible.

Freshman Class, 1920
Lislen, my children. :ind you shall hear
Or 1hc Eigh1 Grade of 1he nineteenth year;
h
On the bollom floor of Lee Junior High,
Lived 1he Class o r "Rats" as they 11roan and sigh
Over La tin, English and Science, too,
And the olher things they have lo do.
But of all the thin ss they'd like to slop,
"Physical Torture." 'II make you drop;
By a Crohy mon it's taught each day,
In cold D ecember and blood heat May;
The joys arc fe"' and the hardships many.
The smiles arc scarce a nd seldom anyExcep t when "C. C. C." comes around,
A nd then 1hcre's seldom e'en u frown.
For C. Cappel. wi th son11s or joy,
Pu ts lots o f pep in ev'ry boy
And ev'ry girl nnd teacher, loo,
There isn't much that he can' t do.
T hen comes M iss Young, loved by all,
The big, the medium and the small.
Then co me Miss Giles and Miss Del ong,
They're both much shorter than this song.
Then comes Mi ss Pht'lps and thc-n Miss Hooke,
We can't skip either in this book;
We ca n' t fo rget our "C. H . R.,"
Or Mr. Akers yet by far.
Miss Moseley and M iss Martin tt'ach
Thal we may higher English reach.

M iss Fontaine teaches higher a rt,
In 1his we get at lcasl a part
Of all the fun that there is here.
For fun and jokes are very dear.
Miss Vcrran "do cet's" nil 1he while.
The Lahn words at which we smile,
Assisted by Mr. Gassman, loo.
They make us all feel black and blue.
M iss Turner makes the girls so slrong,
That th ey can prove tha t right is wrong.
If 1hcy should wish to do so. Yet,
Miss Caldwell we cannot Forget.
She leaches girls esscn1inls. too,
That, I' ll agree, I think, won't you?
I wus 'Vulkin1.t down lhc stree t one day
A nd I met a boy upon the way;
He asked mc- i f I had lo cross
A creek and had no canoe
And had 10 tak e a l(irl o'er, too.
He asked me what I thought I'd do.
I guessed until my head got ~01'c
And th en he said ''I'd Carter o'er."
His laughs all o'er my hend they poured
I grinned, then said 'Td Rutherford.''
The term ended in nineteen twenty.
Of those 1ha1 failed there were a plenly,
or 1hosc cxcmpl a chosen few.
And here: musl end my talk with yolJ.

A Temperance Story
(Not mentioning any names.)
HARDY Black Smith drank Moore Wine than he should
have drunk. When he began to see Redd ( en) Brown, it
gave him quite a Shock(ley). and he began to (g)Nash his
teeth with fear. Rushing out into the yard he took a Holt ( z)
of a Bell, which was lying among the (G) leaves (W) right
near a Stone, and began to ring it Pierce-ingly loud.
His wife, who was standing a t the Garrett window, perceiving Herrma n,
cried, "Great Scott! D on't Do ( u) that, K enn-ett be tha t you have lost your
senses.) "
Afraid of his wife, the Smith jumped in his littl e old wornout Ford, but
H owell it started! Pretty soon, however, it wouldn't Wheel right. and this
gave him a Payne. A Cocke was standing in the middle of the road.
"O Bet-elle I'll run over that thin g !" cried the Smith and he did! H e
Hurt it badly, too!
Now a Hayman close by saw the accident and decided th at he wouldn't
Faster such an action, since the Cocke belonged to him.
"You have Hurt my Cocke and you are Owen me some money!" he
yelled, ~halcing his fist Beery hard.
"You Wynne," replied the Black Smith, "But I've no mon ey , o nly a New
comb, if you will accept that."
"Wait till I consult my Taylor, he always helps me on such matters. But
if he thinks it's Junk(in) there'll be Hel(en) all to pay," answered the
Hayman carrying the Come ( r) into the h ouse.
While waiting, the Smith thought he would Freese, so he gathered some
Erbs to Ward off a cold. Then he blew on a H arne a nd recited old Mother
Hubbard till he felt almost Young again, as he Pace ( d) up and down.
Presently, the Hayman came out and said, "We w ill accept the Newcomb, so go on home."
The Smith went home, and after arriving there he ca lled his two sons
together and said. " Richard-son and Robert-son, never drink too much Wine
like I did, or you might get delirious and even see the D evin ."

Signs-A Sermon
~~~~~ ID you ever speed along in a car, see a sign, fail to read it, run
along a road only to soon find it closed? Then you go back
several miles to the sign, read it and note thal it said "Take
other road, this one closed for repairs." "Foolish. reckless,
haste," you' ll say, and yet we go on from day to day, failing
to read the signs on the road of life in our mad haste to arrive
at fame and fortune. "There are no signs on the way- " don' t you think it"What good is an oJd sign after you see it?"
Listen: Robert Bruce-so runs an old Scottish tal e -having made several unsuccessful attempts to regain a kingdom. rightfully his. had given up
in despair. Attracted to the sight of a spider overhead attempting to swing
its web from one beam to another, he watched it closely. Although it had met
failure as many times as had he, it made another attempt, meeting this Lime
with success. Bruce recognized his sign, learned his lesson. tried again and
was successful. "But this was long ago-those guys had all the luck- there's
none left for me." Now. don't be too sure. Look for the signs. There are
thousands of them around you. D id you ever si t all alone watchi n g an open
fire? What did you see there? Nothing, perhaps. but did you look? Follow
closely- here is what I saw when f looked closely. I sa t listlessly gazing into
the flames with half-shut, drooping lids, my head on my hands, seeing nothing
in particular. "Crack l Crack!" I jumped to my feel and my stu pid brain
began to work-what, however, I had thought to be a riAe. in my stupified
state, was nothing more than the crack of the fire. Again I san k into drowsiness. "Crack! Crack!" echoed and echoed my brain. "Crac k ! Crack !"
the rifles of the R evolution ! Flames- the flames of liberty!
I h ere saw
enacted in the Aames before me the early history of my nation. A peculiar
coincidence, too-I had used thirteen sticks to start my fire! Thirteen sticksthirteen colonies, prompted my brain. Eagerly and open-mou thed I watched
for further developments. The crack, crack. started, ceased, bega n again and
again desisted-slight affairs - 1812 and 1846. mvslcriously supplied mY
formerly deadened faculties. The Hames blazed on brightly for a while. but
suddenly died down perceptiblv-furthermorc, there were now two distinct
fires resulting from the flames having struck a damp spot in the main log.
"Slavery and Civil War," my brain called out. The two fire s lash ed angry

tongues and sputtered one at the other. "Crack ! Crack !" again came the
sounds and I could almost see brother kill brother, father slay son, and son
take life of father. The Aames belched constantly back and forth until the
damp spot interfered no longer. Union came, flame embraced Aame, and
brightly they flared together. The spirit of Liberty burned on. Twice more
the flam es leaped up. the last with franti c fervor. "Spain and G ermany, " my
brain echoed.
P ast and presen t were told, and I watched with longing eyes for the future.
How lon g I watched the calm, steady, upv,rard motion of the flames, I know
not; w a tchin g, I fe ll asleep, and slept for what must have been hours. Waking,
I found myse lf stiff and cold, and glancing at the hearth saw nothing but a
bed o f co ld. gray ashes and a few smouldering coals off in a corner to themse lves. Could this be the fate of our land, our liberty-loving America? It
could not, it should not be ! Feverishly, I coll ected fresh fu el and hastily
strove lo coax the fire again into a blaze. Almost franti cally I labored. for I
fel t I was working not for warmth alone, but for our land-our America!
Americans, here is your sign, your lesson! L earn it I
A country needs fuel-worm-eaten. decayed wood is of no val ue, and
green \·vood li ttl e more. 'Tis seasoned fuel that counts and seasoned fuel our
country must have! Are we playing square with her? Let's learn something
each d ay and so season ourselves as to be of some value to our country.

to wait long on the wharf alone for nin etee n-twenty American
'make believe mothers.' Won't it be just too dear to have my
~~ , iti);/ little adopted orphan for six w hole weeks, a nd just to visit me?
--~ Here, now, Jane, I'm read y ! Are you sure my color won' t
seem too natural, of course, allowi ng just a little blushin g when I m eet little
Pierre? Why, J ane, his name isn't a bit appropriate ! Why in the world
didn't the War Board select a J ean or a J acques for 'Miss Fra nces Gilkerson'?"
Through all the exclamations and questions patient J a ne fi nished h er mistress's "toilet." Not until the big car wou nd through th e court to the busy
metropolis en route to the wharf did the littl e French ma id exclaim, "Ah, ma
chere madamoiselle !"
All the way down the avenue. as they hurried along. F ranees rambled on
to the chauffeur abou t the "little one" who was to arrive that very day on the
S. S. Alberta, as if he had not spent a ll his mo rning runnin g errand s for the
visitor's arrival.
Just as the car drove up to the wharf depot, the excited Frances darted
out of the car, and seeing passengers a lready leavi ng the d e pot, who had
undoubtedly come off this ship, hurried to the waiting room .
"Oh the poor child will be frantic -if B elgi an orphans can get fran tic-all
alone in Big N ew York!"
What a big waiting room it was, and how little sl~e fe lt- o nly eighteen,
waiting for a nine-year-old little orphan tha t the Reli e f Board had let her
adopt. Even the responsibility of making littl e trousers and shirts was not near
so hard as anxiously waiting for the wearer o f them lo ap pear.
In a few minutes ev~ry one cleared the wai tin g room b ut a few straggling
parties. Even these in hme passed on.
Suddenly, a tall officer came straight towa rd her. a nd befo re she had time
to think, had her hand in his strong grasp.
" Is this Miss Frances Gilkerson of 28080- H. Manhattan Pl ace? "

"Goodness. mercy. yes, this is me, but- " She looked up and met his
clear gaze.
"Yes?" he inquired.
"Yes, indeed!" she replied, but suddenly remembering to avoid all appearance of flirtation, said very dignifiedly:
"Have you seen a little boy named Pierre Monceau of the Belgium
Orpha n Relief Camp. from L ondon, England, in this depot?"
S eeing her embarrassment in copying his exact manner of address, the
twice-ten Pierre then and there decided to explain, incidently starting just in
time to keep her fro m walki ng away.
"You see, Miss Gilkerson, one year ago when you wrote to adopt an
orphan, I was in charge of the relief office. Something in your paper, ink and
sachet, goodness only knows what it was, went straight to my lonely heart, and
I felt you would forgive me if I feigned to be your orphan.
" I did my best at writing a French orphan's thank letters- and at last you
sent your picture to 'l ittle Pierre. with love.' Suddenly, I realized 'little Pierre'
need ed a furlough, and straight off he wrote to come to America to see his
'mother.' But I'm sorry, fearfully sorry, I have d eceived you. I know you
can't forgive, and besides are fearfully disappointed in not having a lad of
nine instead of a big man over two times ten."
She did not wince, but something in her throat was just throbbing.
"No indeed, I'd lots rather have a grown orphan - there's not a bit o'
trouble in raising them-see?" For something about him kept her from saying
what she knew she should have said.
"Then if you're going to accept me instead, I'll truly be an obedient, loving
chi ld. But since I' ve saved you the trouble of raising an orphan I'm going to
have the joy of raising you, 'little mother.' till you're old enough to sure-enough
adopt a two-times-ten orph an."

Athletics
6~11&amp;· OOKING back over our 1919-20 season, we can say .. without

,

~

ruffiing up a corpuscle to create a blush, that our athletics have
been a success. although some of the results seem to point to the
~~,
contrary.
In track athletics we made a poor showing, according to
"' ~
the outsiders' point of view, which is usually very limited. For
any one acquainted with the difficulties under which Roanoke labored \vlll
readily realize that the record attained by us is most creditable.
In the diamond sport we copped only three of the nine games played. those
lost all being by close scores. But in baseball. we again had to surmount the
same obstacles as in track, the main drawback being the lack of a coach.
Next came foo tball, when, with a coach. we cleaned up the gridiron.
securing for the third successive season the championship of the State. (For
particulars as to how we accomplished this. refer to the John Marshall game.)
At the beginning of the season we all had much apprehension as to the future,
but under the guidance of Coach F allwell. we played havoc with the other
contestants.
We now turned our attention to the indoor game. Though our record was
only 50 per cent., any one in command of the facts will readily affirm that the
season was a "howling" success.
While the boys were hanging up goodly scores, the girls were also making
an enviable record. At the time when the "AcoRNs" went to press, they
had won three out of six games and were still going strong.

Football, 1919
The season of 1919 was one of the most successful seasons High School
ever had, having won the State championship, aft er having the 1.9 18 title.
The championship was hotly contested, but Roanoke had the best end of it
and claimed the title, which she is proud to have had three times in succession.
The first game of the season was wi th Woodberry Forest Academy at
Charlottesville. This school, being in the "prep" line. did not figure in the
championship race. Roanoke's team was badly crippled on account of several
"average losers," and a few of the subs had to be placed in the ranks. High
School met the first and only defeat of the season here. The game was poorly
played, being featured by erratic plays or fumbl es. Ferguson had the misfortune to break his hip, putting him out of the game for six weeks. Watkins
also suffered a slight injury.

The next game was played at Blacksburg. The game was played on a
muddy field and both teams battled a hard-fought game. Strange to say, in
1918 the game between these two teams was a 0-0 tie. " P op" Vogel was
injured in this game but recovered shortly afterwards.

A game with Chatham Training School was canceled. The next game
was with Martinsville High in Roanoke. As usual, Martinsvill e was easy for
Roanoke and in a quickly played game defeated the Henry County boys.

The following week the much-talked-of Virginia Episcopal School's team
appeared here. Every one looked for a hot battle. Th e game was a hardfought game but Roanoke got the best of it, defeating th e " Hill-toppers."
Tn thjs game Flippo received injuries that held him out for the rest of the season.

The next game was with Lynchburg High in the Hill City. A hardfought game here was looked forward to. R oanoke High seemed too confident in the first half of the game with their bitterest rival, but showed their
fighting spi rit in the last half. Lynchburg, having scored in the first half, held
Roanoke High 7-0 until the last quarter, when Roanoke tied the score.

The followi ng week Blacksburg appeared here to try their luck again.
Blacksburg, from the " tech-town," had had some fin e coaching, but Roanoke
won from th em in one of the hardest fought games of the season, which easily
settl ed th e southwestern claim for the title.

About two weeks later was the big game. J ohn Marshall High, which
always crea tes a lot of excitement, arrived in the city. This game was also
to decide the State title. Every one feared a defeat, after looking at the
husky Marshallites. The day looked bad, and the girls were called out to sell
tickets to help finance the problem. A fairly good crowd witnessed the contest
for the championship in which Roanoke High defeated the Richmonders.
This game marked the end of the season.

Although, the argument of settling the title went on, Roanoke proved that
she had the advantage of claiming the title and, therefore, it was given to
Roanoke Hi gh.
The team was coached by J. H . Fall well, and managed by Bill Williamson. Bill managed the team until the midst of the season, when his health
forced his retirement. Lewis K ennard took up the responsibilities of the management, which he ca rried out successfully.

With a flou1;sh we began! Pulaski Hi against Roanoke Hi. Everybody
was a wreck ( especially those that didn't know what a team we had). The
whistle blew!!! Roanoke made first goal and, believe us, it put spirit into
Roanoke like regular spirits in a dry town. Goal after goal was made by
Roanoke while now and then Pulaski made one. Time up! ! ! ! ! and Roanoke gave a yell for the defeated Pulaskians. S tevens's goal shootin g was the
feature of the game. This gave us high hopes for the next game.

Oh, those college town stars ! !! Blacksburg and R oanoke came upon the
floor with great gusto. The first three goals were to our credit a nd our hopes
soared high. Every minute of the game was hotly contested. but a streak of
accurate goal shooting by H oge of the visitors won the game for them . But in
spi te of a defeat, our team played better than in the previous game.

to onlookers, very boring on account of the fouls and lie balls. but, to tell the
truth, R oanoke fought hard for her twenty points. Stone, in this game . did

Thi s time we journeyed to the college town. Very blithely did Roanoke
walk upon the floor, but only to be taken back by the Aoor space that they
gazed upon, being told by our captain that was the floor that we were to play
on . The first half was one of the worst that our team had ever played. but
w hen the second half began Blacksbmg found out that R oanoke hadn't forgotten how to "play ball." because we sure gave them a chase. But as you
know, "time passes quickly and waits for no man," so it did in this case and
Roanoke was defeated by Blacksburg again.

Marion game! Oh. what a game. Our team was badly crippled by not
having our regular center along, but in spite of this we put up one hard fight.
Carlton rose to the occasion and p layed "swell." Stone and her forward, as
far as we know, might have had personal grievances against each other, if fighting had anything to do with it, but we are inclined to think tha t she was just
playing the part of a grand guard. as usual.

Bristol was the second game on the trip (Marion being the first), but
instead of being tired. they seemed to have had a hypodermic of energy given
to each of them at first knock-off, and off Roanoke goes with the ball, quickly
passing until we made a goal. Every one on the team played better than they
ever had be fore. L ybrook and Stevens did fine goal shooting, not speaking
of the guards and centers with their passwork. Game over, and old Roanoke

Basket-BalJ
Roanoke High entered into the 1919-'20 basket-ball season facing what
seemed destined to be a "dark and dreary" future, not having a single (not
referring to celibacy) letter man back. But, with Ferguson and J arrell as a
nucleus, Coach Fall well soon gathered a squad which, as later proven, was
hard to beat. Grey and Kavanaugh were among the first to come into the
fold. Later, football over, Carlton answered the call on the globular ball and
completed the necessary five. In placing Jarrell , we had a tall proposition, so
we placed him in center. Carlton and Ferguson, both having on numerous
occasions offended our football rivals, were given the offensive positions in th e
indoor game, while Kavanaugh and Grey did our defensive work.
Due to the lack of a letter man, a captain was not elected until the season
was far advanced, when Jarrell was selected.
For the opening act of the series, we journeyed to Lexington on J anuary
I 0th to play the scrub team of V . M. I. Though defeated, we were not disappointed, but rather encouraged by the showing we made.

most optimistic o f Roanoke fan s had not dreamed of our defeating L ynchburg,
the acknowled ged champions of this section of the S tate. But we showed
them w e also knew the A , B. C, 's of basket-ball and the game was the hardestfo ught o f the entire season, the L ynchburg fan s declaring that this year's is
the best team we have sent against them fo r several years. Even though we
fo ught hard, the fin a l whistle found them with a ten-point lead.

the home fl oor. T his game will always remain a black page in our basket-ball
history. F or some reason the scrub team was matched against D anville. and,
in the la tter part o f the fi rst half, when just beginning lo show their mettle they
were replaced by the regulars. The regulars, no t having perspired to the
proper d egree to be " fighting mad," were soon left behind by the now encou raged visitors w ho won the game.

R. H. S.
Baseba ll,
Season 19 19

You may readily call the season of 1919 a very su ccessful one. Out of
the seven games played, Roanoke won four, losing three. Each game was
lost by the score of one run. One of these games was played with a prep
school, and, of course, does not count in the figuring for the championship.
All of the four games won were undeniable defeats for the opposing team.
as all of them were won by large scores, and the games were on ice before
well under way. Roanoke's good showing in these games can be attributed

to the batting of Thomas, Watkins and K avanaugh, alon g with the BIG
LEAGUE ball as was pitched by Bill Williamson. The season opened
without Roanoke having a coach, but later on in the season the services of
Professor Craft, of the lntermediate School. were secured, and to h im is much
credit due for the success of the season.
The season opened with the first game at Highland Park with th e B l ack~
stone Military Academy. This game was hard-fought but on accou n t of a

number of the regulars being out of the game, because of loss of averages,
Roanoke met the first d efeat of the season to the tune of 3-2. This game
showed what the R. H. S. team was made of, for Blackstone had already met
some of the strongest teams in the State, and was then still undefeated. So
we took hard luck in our own hands.

The next game was with our old rivals, Salem, at Salem on Easter Monday.
Roanoke went into this game without having had any practice since the preceding Thursday. But, nevertheless, they put up a wonderful game and Salem
was completely out-classed in every stage of the game. But it appears that hard
luck was again traveling with us. for we lost to Salem by the score of 5-4. In
this game there was a dispute between the two teams whether or not the nine
innings had been played; no official score-keeper being present, it went unsettled. Salem's pitcher had plenty of time to rest, which was badly needed. It
appears that Salem realized that she was out-classed for she would not give a
return game in Roanoke.

The following Thursday the team left on a three-day trip. The first game
on the trip was with Martinsville. They were easy for Roanoke, losing to
them by the score of I 2-1. In this game the batting of the whole team was
the outstanding feature, along with the pitching of Bill. Martinsville entert ained the team that night with a dance and promised to enter a race with us
the next game.
The next day, Friday, we met Danville on their grounds. This game was
a merry-go- round for us. Three home runs were knocked by Roanoke. The

�148

pitching in this game was done by Ed. Thomas, our veleran third sacker. Williamson was being saved for Lynchburg, our rivals of old. Danville had us
in danger several times and it looked like we would again meet defeat but the
team rallied and we came out victor at 14-10.
Saturday we met Lynchburg. This was the hardest-fought game of the
season and not only were the fellows tired out from the trip but we were short
of pitchers. In this game Bill Williamson again did the twirling, making his
third game in the box that week. L ynchburg and R oanoke both played good

ball and it was a contest worth seeing. The game went into extra innings and
then Lynchburg with a little luck came across with the much-needed rnn. winning with the score of 4-3.
Two weeks later we again met Danville on our lot and this time they were
not in it. They were out-classed all the way through the game and at n o time
were they really dangerous. Again R oanoke showed what it could do in the
way of batting. getting a total of 19 hits. Winning by the score of 6-1 .
The following week Martinsville came up and althou gh they were not as
easy as before they did not have a look in. Several times Martinsville had men
on the third sack but were unable to score. Bill was in severa l bad holes but
pitched himself out like an old-timer. This game marked the end of the season of the spring of '19.

Track, 1919
Owing to the lack of interest on the part of studen ts, and condi tions resulting from the War, we were not as successful in Track as in o ther athletics.
We had no regular coach and the squad worked under great difficulties.
On May 9. 1919, the team went to Charlottesville to take part in the
annual inter-scholastic track meet, held by the University of Virginia. But
"Lady Luck" was not present and we were placed second in the High Schools
and fifth in the meet, with a total of seven and one-half points. Williamson
made first place in the javelin throw but failed to break his previous record.
Matson tied for second place in high jump and made third place in the discus
throw.
Lynchburg was our only opponent in the relay race but th e Hill City beat
Roanoke bv a nurrber of vards winning the much-coveted relay cup. The
team left Charlottesville with the intention of comin g back strong in '20.

Police Court News
A

Botetourt County farmer was fined five dollars lhis morning for v iolating
the new traffic ordinances. T he stranger seemed to think that ignorance of a
law excused him. However, the Layman person has learned a costly lesson
in Civics. This enterprising farmer has been seen before this in court and has
been known to appeal a case some seven times.
A white woman who gave her name as Sully Hayward was fined $ 10.00
for the use of profane language in the presence of chi ldren. The Hayward
woman admitted that she was a school teacher. The plaintiff, Mr. George
Stanley, a prominent young man of this city, testified th al she used the words
chuck, chuckle-head and bumsky, repeatedly. The Hayward person plead
guilty, but insinuated that an English examina tion comes at the end of each
school term.
One T. H. Phelps was sentenced lo thirty days in the local jail for disturbing the peace. I t was proved that he had gone down Campbell Avenue
last night singing a boisterous song, wherein a certain word, "Vamp," occurs
repeatedly, in a loud voice. He did not appear lo be intoxicated and his lawyers tried to prove him insane and did establish the fact that he has the mentality of a nine-year-old child. We presume that Marion will have a nother
inmate soon.
A white youth named Eversole was fined $20 for contempt of court. The
Eversole boy was acting as a witness in the Phelps case a nd insinuated that
the court was getting bald-headed.
A man named Hilbig, white, was tried for being a suspicious character.
The judge thought that the Hilbig person was an old offender, but on looking
through the Police Court R ecord, he found no mention of Hilbig, although
the name H elbig figured prominently. The Bertillon measurements showed,
however, that the man Hilbig's head is several sizes la1ger than Helbig's. The
officer may be excused for his blunder, considering the marvelous resemblan ce
of Hilbig to Helbig.
A young man, who gave his name as Benny Turner, was fined $20 for
drunkenness and disorderly conduct. The lad, wh o is a stalwart six-footer and
weighs about 190 pounds, when arrested was swaggerin g around the corner
beside the National Exchange Bank Saturday night about nine o'clock. He
was talking to a friend. who is by name Viaud, in a very boisterous manner.
Both seemed to be under the influence of alcoholic liquors, but this fac t was not
absolutely proven. Considering their calling, they may be mere ly insane.

Seventy-Five Dollars Invested in Stenography Will Pay Your Way Through College
Mr .Harris Birchfield, whose father is general Agent for the Virginian Railway Company, and
r ·
at ·383 Albemarle Avenue, S. W., is a typical illustration of what we mean. After tak ing n course
i~ss~~~thand and Typewriting at the National Business College, he decided to st udy law. He enter ed
Geor etown University and was made Secretary to the faculty at a sala ry of $ 125.00 per month. Si nce
then ghe bas been elected Executive Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. Law School, Washington, D . C., nt n
much better salary. Mr. Birchfield is a very enthusiastic endorser of Shor thand as 11 stepping stone
for any ambitious young man or woman.
Doctor J.B. Eades, anothe r Roanoke boy, paid his way through Medical College by tak ing lectures
in Shorthand and selling them to other student s.
EARN WHILE YOU LEARN
The cost is so small that any one can afford a business education- especially Roanoke st ud ents
who have no board to pay . The advantages are so great that no one can afford to miss them.
ASK YOUR TEACHERS
A large percentage of ~ur enrollment each year is made up of former teachers. Open-minded
educators who are thoroughly interested in the future welfare of their pupils are our best friends. They
know the advantages of
A NATIONAL BUSINESS COLLEGE TRAINING
Are these salaries possible without a business college education?
A graduate stenographer or bookkeeper can easily command a beginning salary of $100.00 to
5150.00 per month. The day this .advertisement was written, we had six such posi:ions we were unable
to fill. Big business men are placing a premium on High School graduates who have finished th eir education at this well known College.
Begin any week day. Sessions are continuous- no vacations.

NATIONAL n usIKESS COLLEGE
ROAXOI&lt;E, vmorXIA
E. M. COULTER, President.
M. A. SMYTHE, Vice President and General Manage r .
Finish your education where big business gets its stenographers , secretari es , bookkeepers, accountants, and future executives.

other field of endeavor and where your work will bring you

A Tip About Examinations
Gee ! Don't you dread the exami nations? It wouldn't be so bad if
you d idn't have a headache and feel so listless all the time, would it'? It's
hard to concentrate your m il1d on your work when you a re not feeling
good, isn't it?
Well, here is a secret.
All the energy, life and vigor you have in your body is resident in the
bra in a nd is tra nsmi tted to the various organs and t issues thru the nervous
system .
T he nerves of this system all branch off from the spinal cord between
the joints of the spine and when some of these joints get slightly out of
place they pinch the nerves and reduce the expression of life.
You see the electl'ic lights get dim, that is because the current is
r educed and thus the expression of light is dimini shed. The p1·inciple is
much the same in the body.
The Chiropractor adjusts the spine and releases the pinched ne1Tes
so that life is full~r expressed and so you become more ,·igorous and you
do your work with greater ease.

" Love's Ship"

Oh! wonderful world, as we stand to go,
On the threshold of learning and youth,
You beckon us on to noble deeds,
And show us the way to truth.
Chorus :
Dear old Class, we must leave,
And the parting is sad,
For the good times we've had are untold,
And we pledge here today,
That our lives we will make
Big and fine like the purest of gold,
And we bid each today
Not a last fond farewell,
But a greeting to work and to life,
When we all meet some day,
Let us hope we will be
Big and strong through the struggle
and strife.

The Futt1re That Gleams Ahead
Oh, listen, dear class of twenty-two,

Pause a moment to think of the past.

Graduation has come at last;
To us, who have fought these long

~·ears

through ,

Won some victories and tasted defeat,
vVe who have striven together, too,
In companionsh i1 poignantly sweet,
)
Come, let us decide before that day
When the past and future shall meet,
Ou1· aims in life and then the way

W e should g-uide our stumbling feet.

Oul into that whil'I called Life,
We mu::.t fight fo1· things "·orth ·while,
Among the throngs of this great strife
We must wear a happy smile,
Jf we live on a highe1· plane
With ou r dreams still undefiled.

We shall find eternal gain,
And the peace, as a litt le child :
Tf we st rive in a ll to see

Tl1al U nsee n Pow·er from Above,

.That Guiding Hand of Myster y,

We s hall know that "God Is Love."
In afte1· ~·ea rs when youth is spent,

Shall we kno\\' a sweet content.
If we have kn0\\'11 a deep despair.
S hall we slill feel His lm·ing care;
Ir we h:.n-e attained our goal
With honesty of mind and St&gt;ul.

Then life \\'as Ii\·ecl as he designed
For yo11, t'nr me, ancl all 1 la11kincl.

Decide now, comrades, and he not afraid.
Thank Cod for the fntnre that gleams ahead!

This is true of "Kate" for she is really extremely human! She
"can't be bothered" by st ud~·ing nil the time, so she is not too intellectual yet she always pulls thru exams. When others fail! She is
not to~ good, for she is always ready for fun and jokes. Katherine

" Life's been a jolly good joke to him

Life has been a jolly good joke to Ben as he has always managed
to skip the dark spots both in and out of school. He is generally
happy, but he has been seen with a preoccupied expression on his
face. He has never thought enough about the weaker sex to be a
woman hater. \Vhenever he looks dreamy he is only engaged in
pondering on the age old question of the Patagonian Sneeze Hound
that sneezes every time he jumps and jumps every time h e s n eezes.
He has devoted years of study to the solution of this problem. When
he finally solves this absorbing problem and gives his decision to
the eagerly waiting world and turns his i·em arkable mind to even
greater questions worthy of his consideration, h e will achieve g reat
fame and we may expect him to startle us any day with his "Eureka ."

"Semper fidelis."
Florence is diligent and devoted to her work. Whatever the task ,
she does it cheerfully and a lways meets you with a smile . A true
and faithful friend, indeed, as shown by her sincerity, g·entle disposition and generou~ hea rt . She is ever r eady to help a friend in n eed
and to give encourgament; "worry" neve1· crosses her mind.
She has made many friends in the entire school, both with the
student body and with the facu lty. She has made a s uccess in the
Commercial Department; (also of M r. Turner's "History"); moreover
she is a one hundred "Averager" on typewriting.
From the past, we can safely say that Florence will have a bright
future, and we wish her health, happiness and prospe1·ity in her
life's work.

" I was s ick with dread but I bravely said I'll just take a peep ins ide."

This seems to be Draper's attitude toward his books. H e is no t
famous for his love of studying but still he manages to get by. Althou gh he loves not midnight study he persuades himself that it is
a necessary evil that goes with the good times at "Hi" School. It is
only accidental that Draper is with us this year, a s h e fell deeply in
love with a little mountain g irl, but all his inspirations w er e soon
cut short, alas! by a dread of h er physical strength. Hence it is that
he continues his studies at Hi School. If he does not recons ider and
return to the mountains and his woodland sylph, we wis h him abundant s uccess in whatever line he may undertake.

THE ACORN

Class Prophecy
St. Louis, Mo.
Dearest Peggy:
Guess what! I'm going all around the
world, advertising a new horse-radish sauce,
invented by Lawrence Martin and I have
already reached St. Louis. I came out on the
train with Hubert Woody, a traveling salesman for Restoro Hair Tonic, a product of the
Helen Mundy Laboratories. He insisted
upon selling me two bottles. On the way,
we stopped at Fairport, and who should live
there but Lester Engleby and Elizabeth
Wills. They're married now, and have settled down to love in a cottage. You should
see the cottage, designed by Fleming Hurt.
He's quite famous now, you know.
As soon as I reached St. Louis, I met Robert Loebl. He and Mabel Suthers edit rival
newspapers here. Last week Robert engaged ~abe Moses on special political articles,
and ~his week Mabel i-etaliatecl by running
a daily funny paper, drawn by Joe Farrow.
Robe1-t s~emed quite cast down about it.
Last night I ran into Sallie Hardy. She
told me she was a successful sucker manu~acturer and offered to take me to a movie.
On the way I changed her mind and we went
to_. the Opera instead. I certainly was s urpu~ed when I went in. Th e Opera was
written by Ina Hoffman and the 1;ompany
man.aged by Mary Sutherland. When the
leading la~ y appeared, she was none other
than L'.lurrne Garrett, and the vill iane was
Katherrn.~ Ho~k. I re~1Jy enjoyed the Opera,
tho Lall1me, .111. the midst of a very realistic
dea.th scene? rns1stecl upon stepping on a tack,
wh1ch fell from Katherine's wig.
B~twee!1 acts (to hold the crowd, I think)
Lucile Spmdle sang. The song that o-ot the
mos~ applause, "The Dawn of Night" was
pubh~hecl by Katy Henson and Clara Goggin.
They ve made lots of money, so I hear.
Love,
Katharine.
San Francisco, Cal.
Dearest Peggy :
lVIo_re s urprises! On the way out here,
the t ram stopped because of a hot box and
I got out and walked around . The first thing
I .saw was a farmer, peacefully plowing behmd ~n old mule. I stopped to watch him
and discovered Lehind a huge beard Sher~ood Preston, the \i\Toman-hater. He's retired l1e.re permanently, so he told me. I
ta:lked till the train left and presented him
with one of my horse-radish pamphlets. H e
seemed real grateful.
·when I reached L os Angeles, the first

thing I did was get nm over. It didn't hurt
much, but I got his number and proceeded
to the representatives of my Insurance Company for damages . They were none othe1·
than Kyle Gearheart and Henry Thomas.
And Hem·y has acquired a bay window! The
man 'vho ntn over me turned out to be Jam es
Kidd, a movie magnate, so I forgave him .
He offered to take me out to his st udios and
when we arrived, he introduced me to his
pet vamp. It was Liz Cole, and his juvenile
sta1· was Phillips Coleman. The gowns Liz
wears are designed by Glenna Panack, and
Margaret Hart writes the scenarios. It was
extremely interesting and I hated to lea\'e.
On the way back, James told me that Hasseltine Gore had married a V. P. I. teacher,
so she could be near Tech all of the time.
I reached San Francisco this morn ing and
met Liz Hall, com ing ou_t of the station.
She's inherited a legacy from a woman she
pulled out of a creek last summer and is
here to spenrl it. We decided to go to the
Circus to c.:elehrate. Besides, I consider a
circus an excellent place to distribute my
horse radish pamphlets. They had a lovely
bareback l"ider, and when she turned our
way, we saw it was Mikked Cooke. We went
to talk to he1· afterwards and sbe said the
stro11g man \Ye all admired so was Fatz
Miller. Just the11 he came along. Sure
enough, it was he. We asked him how he
got so strong and he said by eating weenies.
Do you remember the swell ones at the High
School cafeteria? Fatz said Mary Wright
was selling them at the ci1:cus, but I didn't
have time to see her.
We sail tomorrow.
Katharine.
Hawaii.
Dear olcl Peggy:
I think I'll see all our '22 High School
class before I finish. As soon as I got on the
ship, the Captain and his wife passed my
way and the wife is lVIartha Hinch. She's
as pretty as ever. She took me around the
other side of the ship, and covered with
steame1· rngs and with a cute little hat on
her head, sat Marion Garrett. She's Mrs.
Archibald Malone now and hei- sole intere::;t
in life is her Irish poodle, F enlinand, which
is taken care of by Virginia Boyd.
At dinner that night, the waiter, Claude
Brubaker, spill ed jelly-bean soup all clovn1
my neck, but I didn't have the heart to cuss
him out, and I gave him a quarter instead.
We landed in Hawaii this morning. P oor
Hawaii is in the midst of another rebellion.

I )ea r e~ t P egg~· :
It ·s b een a long time since I've written
.\·o u. b ut n ot hing much happened till I got
he1·e . I did run into some excitement in
Trn·ke.\·. I was out taking the air in Constant inople one morning, when suddenly I
t houg-ht I must have come upon a strike, and
e lbo wing rn~- \\'ay thl'u the crowd, I found
m.\·~ e l f fac:e t o face with Beall Brugh, in an
ab~unl costume, giving a co med~r act, while
Paul ,Johnson loudl y orated upon the merits
of .Albe l't Lancaster's patent medicines. Behind the two, Cul'tis Bowyer was unpacking
and handing up the bottles as they were sold.
1 laugh ed till I was weak.
Imm ediat ely upon arriv ing here, I ca11ed
on Uixi e R eyn olds, a fascinating widow, who
li\· e ~ in a huge chateau in Paris. She gave
rn e a lo\·eh· afternoon tea. Among the
guests were Frances Owen, who has a
fam o u s studio here. Marie Rickey, who is a
mannequin in one of the exclusive shops, and
Mitchell Staples, who thinks he's studying
art. Poo 1· Mitch finds life still a tangle as
far as hi s lo\·e affairs go. At present he
t hinks she is a little Spanish dancer. After
the tea \\'e went to Terry Turner's dancing
studio. The music was furnished by Elizabeth Dickerso n's orchestra.
Affectionately,

New York, N. Y.
1)ca r· o ld Peggy :
I' ve a lmost fini shed my trip. I t hink
I'll be sorry when it's over, but I guess home
will look pretty good again.
After I left Paris, I crossed t h e channel
to England. I stayed two days in London .
The first person I met that I knew was
Thomas Tanner, a policeman. He told me
Belle Young was teaching Spanish there iu
a private school, but I didn't see her.
The second day I was there I got mixed up
in a London fog, and wandered for hours.
F i nall~r I
b umped into someone whose
"Ouc h" sounded familiar, and looking closely, found her to be Lois Cosby. She kindly
agreed to lead me back to where I started,
and on the w av she told me that she ·was
man-ied to a farmer and lived outside of
London . Alice Garrett and Mary Finch are

�also married and live near her. She said
there was nothing like the simple life.
I sailed from Liverpool with Ethel Butcher, who has been to the Olympic meet at
Sweden. She said David Hesser 'Ivon the
Marathon race, and John Diuguid also distinguished himself. She also told me that
Gertrude Quinn had married a sedate old
widower in I reland and spent her time
shocking him. And that Edna Roberts and
Elsie Tompkins are reporters in Ireland,
studying the Irish question . We parted at
the wharf, Ethel going to Vassar as Secretary, where Elizabeth Brown now teaches
Math. Liz always was good on Math.
When I landed, all New York was abuzz
with the famous case of Lew Franks, Stuart
Richardson and Frank Weinstein, famous
Reds, whom the government was persecuting. Aleen Mundy was their lawyer and at
the time I landed had about talked the government lawyers unconscious.
The very next day, Virgil Moir, now a
famous detective, rounded up a bunch of lady
bootleggers, Dudley Wood, Ola Dickerson
and Vivian Srn.ith. I never thought they
would come to this.
Last night I was at the Follies, watching
Dougla:-; Humphries trip the light fantastic
(you know she is a star now) when Alberta
Hooke and Sallie Coon, i n high collars and
h9rn rims, burst in. It seems they are noted

A lot of old '22's have settled here. Th is
afternoon, I called on Beryl Echols, wife of
Senator Greener Grass, who took me in her
limousine to the high school, to a L atin
Jectu1·e by ·Marcelene Thierry, ·who now has
two medals to her credit. I must admit tho,
that I enjoyed everyth ing more than the
lecture. Marcelene was introduced by Ralph
Baker, who is the principal.
After the lecture, we went to the dearest
tea shop, owned by Rose Y" ernon. and Ch ristine Wingfield. In the middle of tea, I suddenly choked on something and fainted.
When I came to, I saw Dr. Thelma Beckham
on deck and with her efficient aid, I soon recovered. It seems the ti-ouble was a lump

A Dedication
The flame dies down, another class
Is swept into the sfream of life;
Great their renown, and yet, they pass
Unheeded into Man's great strife.
The embers glow, new work's begun,
An eage1· crowd is at the door;
They fain would know what's to be won,
And winning, ever ask for more.
The blaze leaps high, i n heightened zest,
To touch the pinnac:Ie of Fame.
Then, with a sigh, it droops its crest
And sinks into a tiny flame.

That flame's now yo urs, oh hventy-three.
To urighten up the darkest nights.
While it endures, 011 let it be
To cast its shadows on the heights .
And keep it pure, with spirit trne,
The whi le you make the b laze grow higher~
And be ye certain of those few,
You'll choose to 1\eep the sacred fire.
Take, then, th is flame, 'tiR not yet l ow~
Wh y even now we see the pass
That 1ear1s to Fame, and with it go
Best wishes from the Senior Class.

Individual Standards
Ralph B a ker, '22.
From your own view point, do you not
consider the standard, or working plane of
a class, only as h igh as each pupil makes it?
No explanation is necessary, for we all know
that a standard is, both theoretically and
practically, a set ideal, or a measure of quantity a11d (Juality, which is striven for by a
clan. By a clan-"Ay, there's tl1e r ub," as
Shakespeare would say. How much better
it would be if each individual of that clan
would station his or her own respective ideal
on a plane much higher than that on which
the group is working, ancl hence strive for
the raising of the c haracter and qual ity of
the standard. lVIiss Haywarcl's- "Be a sport,
and live up to your individual responsibilities l" might ser ve as a dailv reminder of
this truth .
'W hen we conskler the co mpensations resulting, their name is legion. All work,
which is a result of individual thinking, goes
to the making up of an interesting and helpfu.1 class, and one that will be looked upon
with pleasul'e after school and college life.
Moreover, in business or profession, because
of that helpful idea that individual principles
w in over class stan dards, we will lead on to
success! H is believed throughout all activities of progress, that a standard acts as
a responsibility, ca using a pride in work
leading to the perfection 0£ that standard.

One's intellect, under such conditions, is
broadened, in that the pe1·son through individual work, gained a knovvledge of religion,
science, or business profess ion. Responsibil ity is not theoretical or general, but on
the other hand, is m osl certainly · practical
and })el'Sonal ! How i·esponsible a man, a
general manager of a large concern must he,
to have the power of decid ing acc urately on
impo1-tant details in constru ction, w ithout
having to depend on an~· company uf associates and s uperiors. Ile has reached a goal,
a goal "which i·adiates p1·ide in its capping.''
But that the s uccess was gained by individual thought and action is the pa1·t that is
satisfying.
One gaining knowledge and education by
individual strivings and research necessarily
comes in contac:t with all the vices and vfrtues of the world. We learn how t.o meet the
hard knocks of life, we learn the kind of
friends to make, we learn the idea of independence, we learn that if "team work" fails.
the old victo1·y of individual ideals over class
standards is the guiding light on ou1· pathway to success!
An individual standard bespeaks noth ing
of isolation, selfishness 01· insolent pride, but
simply denotes personal service to the
wol'ld.

The Storlll
.John Carter, '23.
From the cliff you see the fl.asl1,
And hear the migMy thunder's crash,
As if some gotl were using lash,
To set the earth a -wailing;
The mighty deluge driven down,
On the already sodde n g 1

But a ll is unavailing,

Until some bolt, by demon hand,

And clips an oak, as if a wand,
Had sent the giant i·eeli ng;
But at Je ngth the storm is spent,
Anil the s un , by God is sent
T o J1 eal the earth of all that's be nt
And broken, by the flailing.

ROANOKE HIGH WINS BASKET BALL CHAMPIONSHIP

In one of the most thrilling games ever staged on a Norfolk court, Roanoke High
defeated Maury High School, for the Basketball Championsh ip of the State, by a score
of 30-28. In the first quarter, Roanoke ran away with Maury and that period ended with
the score 11 to 1, but Maury staged a great comeback and the half ended 15 to 14 in Roanoke's favor. Both teams started off like a whirlwind in the last half until three minutes
only were left and Maury was three points in the lead. With a "never-say-die" spirit, Roanoke started in to overcome that lead. Eades dribbled down and shot a goal, followed

Roanoke ............ 12

The City Audilo1·ium wa s the scene of a very exciting game when the Petersburg team defeated
the Roanoke team to the tune of 14 to 12. Pete1·sburg made the first tally by throwing a foul. Roanoke

IN RETROSPECTION
By Willia m R. Parker, '23.
From the last examination, to the joy of grad uation,
And the new matricu lation, are the days that we adore;
Yet thru us new pains keep darting, when the time anives
for starting,
And we realize we're parting, parting from our Hi School
door,
Tears of joy and sorrow smarting, as we leave that friendly
door,
'Whisp'ring softly, "Never more!"
Yet, when college clays are over, and we've star ted life a
rover,
With that lucky four leaf clove1·, that was ours in time of
yore,
L ong departed, gail y singing, while its m emo 1·y keeps
bringing
Thoughts that thru our b rain s are ringing, of that dear
old Hi School door,
Birds of fancy, ever winging lonely journeys to t hat door,
To be enterecl-nevermo1·e !
And, tho Lady L uck starts kneeling, and ou r hell s of Joy
start pealing,
Yet those thoughts come often stealing, of those happy
days of yor e.
Tho real business-like we're seeming, days of idleness
redeeming,
Oft we 'wake from restful d1·eaming, of lhat friend ly Hi
school door.
Tho with Life's great li ght we'1·e heam ing, yet remains
that ancient door,
In our mem'ries - eve1·more '.

REMINISCEN CES
Velma .Matthews. ' 22.
Whe11 &lt;.:ommencement is over,

And "The Acorn" we've read,
When ever yth ing is finished,
And "Gootl Byes" are said,
WJ1en we look bac:k o'er school days,
And o'er joys and trials,
Then we'll know how we love you,
Dear Roanoke High of ours!

Cou ld we undo our failures
And right ever y wrong,
Cou ld we do our tasks better
And sing o'er each Rong!
Th e Yf'l'll's he:we passed su qui c ld~·,
'Ti::; ovel' all too soon;
Oh! could we }Jut graduate
Eac:h yea1' in Jun e !

GIRLS' BASKETBA LL BANQUET
The Hi School Girls' Basketball team had
their annual banquet on Friday night, April
28th in the Chamber of Commerce Banquet
Hall: This banquet was the peppiest, most
wide awake banquet had fo1' some time;
from the moment the guests wern seated
until time to leave lhere was general merrymaking. Grnnd jokes were pul led right and
left, as well as cute little dialogues, etc., on
the different members of the team and the
subs. Shod interesting talks were made
by Emily Lybrook, as Captain of '22, Mary
Will Giles, as '23's Captain, a response to
these by Ma1'ia Neren, Mr. Ca1·ter as Coach,
and also Mr. Parsons and Mr. Bonnotte.
~\'Iiss Board acted as toast mistress for the
occasion. The color scheme, marnon and
white, was tastefully carried out in the place
cards and fa,·ors, as well as the table decorations. A delightful fh·e course dinner was
served.
K ID PARTY

The most frolicking, rollicking "Kid Party"

t~at R. H.'s ingenuity ever produced was

g1ve.n the Sophomorn Class by the J uniors,
April the 21st, at the First Baptist Church.
No one was admitted unless in kid garb and
even s.o i:ne members of the Faculty caught
the spmt and came with hair ribbons, curls
and dolls. The crnwd (numbering about
2?0) was met at the doo1· by Junior boys and
girls and ea&lt;.:h presented with a sucker in
which a number was carefull y wrapped.
Ea~h boy f?tmd hi!'&gt; corresponding number
wh 1 was m the hands of some fair "tot"
ch
and together they went to the Circus; which
proved to be one of the biggest hits that
ever landed in Roanoke.
Arter the s ide :-;how, Miss Beebee of the
Faculty, secu1·ed five dolls and in "kiddish
garb" clim bed upon the platform and recited a speec h to the great amusement of
all the onlookers.
Next, the bunch was seated and sure
"enuf" pink lemonade, popcorn and cookies
were distributed, to the joy of all. Next on
the program was the contest fo r "the cutest
little girl." After much deliberation and
many c:anclidales had been brought up before
the judges, the prize, a box of Martha Washington candy. was given to Miss H uff of the
Faculty.
The formal pmg1·am began with an Address of Wel come by the Junior Class President, Moorman Parker, and a response by
the "Soph" President, Gordon Metzger. T h e

which Mrs. Du1·t 1·ecitecl "Bill Sez," much to
the enjo~·ment of all. i\Iiss Helen lVIcNeal

STAFF BANQUET
On Friday April 7, Lhe Acorn Staff and
Class Officer~ were delightfully entertained
by the Senior Class President, Lester Engleby, at a dinner given at his home. Talk
about a good time, well just read:
T he decorations carried out the Class Colors, pu1·ple ancl gold, to absolute perfedion.

BOYS' BASKETBA LL BANQUET
Speaking of banquets-did you hear about
the Boys' Basketliall Banquet? It was slick!
Given at the Chamber of Commerce. you
know, and everything was so "perty," even
if the boys did get it up! Tiny ba:::;ketballs
filled with nuts were at each plate. A maroon and wh ite t:olor scheme was used
throughout.
The Menu was:
Fruit Cocktail
Chicken
Potatoes
Bread Filling
Stuffed Peppel's
Peas
Pic ld es
Olives
Hot Rolls
Pineapple Salad
Ice Cream
Cake
Mints and Coffee
The g ids looked lovely and the boys extremely happy, but that's natural; they always do when the "fairer beings" are near!
Speeches to the right of us, speeches to the
le:ft of us, and Mr. Bonnolte in front of us!
So you know what a perfectly keen time we
had. I'd tell you who was there, out you
know it's always been mv policy never to
mention names and tales at t he same time.
Good poli cy, don't you think?

.JUNIOR-SENIOR PICNIC
Listen, my readers . and you shall hear
Of the Junio1·s' picnic: to the Seniors that
year
On th~ t wenty-ninth of Ap1·il in Twent~·-two.
Ask any Junior or Senior, ·who
Went on the ride, an&lt;l they will say,
"'Twas the best picnic in many a clay."

First; thru the country and hitting the wind,
The autos carried us amid the din
Of merry laughter, and carefree sound.
Next; we were at the ole' picnic ground.
Volly-ball, and rope jumping and such games
galore,
What fun we had, all kids once more.
And then the eats, oh! simply grand,
The best to l:e found in any land.
And each for the enjoyment of everyone lent
His own small stunt or accomplishment,
About the camp fire with laughter and singing,
\.Ve set the woods 'round with merry ringing.
Aml then, homeward bound, by the light o'
the moon,
Thus ended our· picnic, all over too soon.
The Acorn couldn't go to press without

"'Vhich one would you use?"
"Oh! I ·wish I had pressed my trousers! "
''This one looks like me, but I'm sure they
wouldn't recognize me in that one."
"Sherwood, I do believe my trousers hang

"Heck! My head doesn't look like that!

Marie Rickey, '22.

When Lhe wrong th ing you have done,
'l'o apologize, my son,
Is not easy.
When selfis h you have been,
To admit, and again ueg in,

To maintain a standard high,
When yom friends are lax nearby.
Is not easy.
To shoulder desenr-ed hlame,
To endure a touch of fame.
Is not easy. But it pays!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Of course everyone has heard of the Martha Washington, as this is one of the most
important organizations of R. H . S., but we
want to ·i mpress everyone with the unusual
enthusiasm that has been shown throughout
the year. The Zona C::ale, Joel Chandler
Harris and Edgar Guest programs were
especially entertaining and deserve special
mention. More talent than ever has been
developed . For instance, we always have
piano or vocal solos, readings, debates or
original papers. The Dramatic League and
Glee Club were formed under the supenision
of the M. W. and are really its foster children . Thus in broadening its scope, more
school spirit has been shown than ever be!ore. Prizes have been g iven at each meeting by prominent business men of Roanoke
to the member showing the best preparation
for her part on the program. Joint meetings
with the J. L. S. have been held throughout
the year. Prominent literary men have been
s~udied and most of our programs have been
~1ve11 over to them.
Quite a good deal of
mterest was taken in the reading and debating contests. We sent out last term's
president, Belle Young, as girl reader to the
State Contest at t he University. The officer s of both fall and spring terms deserve
credit for their earnest efforts made in order

that the society might be t he best ever. We

of Mrs. B urt's interest and efforts in planning programs, helping in the prepa1·ation of

R. H. S. GIRLS' CLUB

The Girls' Club during th is year has done
much to be commended. While everything
attempted has not been a "howling" success,
each attempt has meant work and effort.
The year's work began with the Setting-up
Conferenece at Tree Top Camp, which was
attended by all Cabinet members . At the
first Club meeting, Miss Letty J . Brown,
then Field Secretary for Younger Girls, gave
a very interesting talk. The next meet ing
was the Rat Tea. Later on we gave a very
attractive Hallowe'en Tea in the Club room,
at which a silver offering was taken. Then
a box was sent to the Indians. At Christmas
t ime a Christmas tree was enjoyed by several little children. In Febrnary a Club supper was held in honor of the Club's birthday.
This supper was so enjoyed by everyone that
it was decided to hold a Club supper every
month. In the latter part of February a
beautiful Japanese Tea was given for which
tickets were sold to raise money for our delegates to go to the Conference. After that
came our next supper. In the early part of
April a Vesper service was held . A Lawn
Fete to raise more money for our delegates

is being planned for t he near fut ure at the
home of Mrs. J. W . Preston. The meetings
as a whole have been very interesting. At a
Rummage Sale which was held in April,
about twenty-five dollars were made. We
have sent two delegates to the Hot Springs
Convention and are planning to send about
ten to the Sweet Briar Conference. During
the last week in May t he old and new cabinets will hold another Confe1·ence at Tree
Top Camp. The Salem Cabinet has also
been invited to this Conference.

The Hi-Y Club is an organi;rntion of older
High School boys \\'ho, with a g rowing consciousness of theii· obligation to help make
the lives of school boys function as Christians, al'e banded together to make effective
in the school and comm unity the idealR of
the Jesus Way of Liivnig as expressed in
the purpose of the Club.
The Emblem of the Club w hich appears on
the uppe1· par t of this page was designed by
a member of a Hi-Y Club in another city,
who makes the following statement as to its
s ign ificance:
" I made it a triangle because, during the
first six months of m y membership i n the
High School Club, it made a complete change
in me. On m y 'mind' side I was encouraged
to study hanle1· and all m y marks. formerly
\er.v low, are now in the 80's, except one,
~~ ncl that's in the 90's- it's gl'eat !
"On the 'body' side, I used to be s ick a
g reat deal of the time, but by following the
health hints and going into athletics I am
now in mighty good shape. [Th e boy r epres enting his school won the 220 yard champions hip in competition with five High
Schools.]
"On the 'spirit' s ide, well, you know that I
took Christ as my Saviour soon after I became a member of the Clu b. T hat's the rea-

son I pu t the cr oss in the center. He's become the center of my life; and He is the
center of our Club. The white, well, you
never did know how rotte11 m y life was before I came into the Club. It isn't white yet,
but that is what we are all trying to make
our lives become.
"The whole thing stands for sacrificiaf
service, for Christ and the other fellows."
H ow the Local Club Cam e i nto Being.
It was shortly afte1· the opening of school
last fall that Taylor "Pat" Smith, who had
but a few weeks before come to Roanoke as
Boys' Work Secretary of the Y. lVI. ~· A., addressed the Senior Class, challengmg them
to assume t he responsibilty of starting in the
school a ''Hi-Y Club." He called to their
attention the joy that would be theiirs in
after years as they reflected on having had
a part in introducing to Roanoke High a
Boys' Club which should be founded and promoted on the principle of the J esus Way of
Living.
A Comm ittee was appointed and a suggested co nstitution vvas drafted. This constitution was made effective ,,,-hen approved
and adopted by a majority of the delegates
who attended the Older Boys' Conference
which was held at Lynchburg, October 14-16,
1921. The delegates were: John Douglas,
Moorman Parker, Lester Engleby, Sterling
Weld, Waller Hunt, Leonard Preston, J. W.
Thompson, Marvin G. Williams, Frank Settle,
Palmer Key, Joe Fanow, Randolph Tucker,
Emory Cuddy, Robert Morehead, Herbert
Gillespie.
The Year's Progrnm of the Club has been
four-fold-Intellectual. Ph~·sit:al. Devotional,
Service. P hysical in that every athletic activity in th e school has been boosted and
given the unqualified support of the Club.
It was the privilege of the Club to put on a
Minstrel Show which netted the Athletic
Association more than fonl' hundred dollars.
The programs at lhe weekly s upper meetings have been intellectually inspiring and
socially delightful. Much of the cr edit for
the success of the Club is due the committee
of ladies from the Ladies Auxiliary of the
Y. M. C. A., who have worked untiringly
to make the suppers up to the high mark
both in quality and quantity. As individual

for this to stop, and then l&gt;egan to speak. In
a few minutes the Seniors beg-an to feel a
little shaky, and when he had consumed five
minutes Hugh Martin goi up and left the
room. Cou ld this he the essay so hastily
prepared? It hardly seemed possible that
in such a short time he could have wrjtten
such a treatise. Everyone's attention was
fixed on the speaker. You could have heard
a pin fall. Having fin ished, and taken his
seat, there was a pause, and then came a
deafen ing burst of applause.
The judges arose and rende1·ed their decisions as to the debaters and readers. The
various boys had come forward and received
their honors . The winner of the essay medal
alone remained to be given .
The President of the school arose, took up
the Sidney medal, and called "Mr. Basi l
Hampton" to come forward and receive it.
The Juniors simply went wild, and Basil \.Vas
carried out of the hall and all over the campus.
Basil was exceedingly happy, and when

his father was very much improved in
health, and that he would not be retired for
two more yeal's, he felt that he Jiad nothing
to look forward to that could possibly increase his happiness .

�The HI-Y Club
(Continued from Page 73.)
of service lo the school 01· community has
been treated lightly. As an organization,
the Clu b clisl1·iuulecl throughout the school
"Keep-Fit" pamphlets. and through a part
of the proceeds from the Minstrels created
an Infra School ·wurthy Chariity Fund.
Two series of lec:tu1·es by prominent business and professional m en have been enjoyed, the first being taken from Harry
Erne1·son Fo~click's l;ook, "The Manhood of
the Master" : ancl the second series from
Robert E. Spee1"s vook, "A Young Man's
Questions."
A Ladies' Night, Chrigtmas. a Father and
Son Banquet in Januan·, and a Motl1er's
Kight in Ma,\· are some more of the many
outstanding features of the Club's activities.
Goel willing, the · Club shall continue to
function to an int'reasingly large degree in
carrying oul, in spi ri t and in tnith, its purpose; viz .. "To Creat, Maintain and Extend
throughout the School and Community, high
standards of Christian Character."

THE D U MBELL
My purpose is to satirize
T h e Mirror of t he sc hool ;
To ask why studentR try to make
A \·v ise bi rd seem a fool,
Fo1· I'm a Dumbell.
To get this qu estion in my mind
And 'similate it well ,
And m~clerstand why they call me
A ve1·y dumb dumlJell,
0, just a DurnlJell.
A llh o my grades might seem quite low
On Latin, MaLl1 ., and French,
There is no reason that I can see
To pl ace me on the bench;
But I'm the Du mlJell.
My sole excuse for IJeing dumb
I 'll now disclose to you,
For I bel ieve in, "When in Rome
Do as the Romans do."

Opposite Ponce de Leon Hotel.

As we finish our year's wo1·k and hear
them say, "Well done," we are faced with
the task of saying farewell. It has not been
an easy task, to publish five editions such
as we have. But from the labor we have
learned new lessons and we have experienced a bigger work. Our work together has
been a pleasure, and it is not with joy alone
that we end it. We appreciate all that has
been done to a id us by members of the Facu lty, the Student Body, those wl10 have advertised in out pages, and anyone who has
lent his efforts for our success. We trust
that we have done our work well, but of this
we are sure, we have done our best. vVe will
not count our work a failure if, in future
years, "The Acorn" bl'ings anew to former
students the spirit of our Roanoke Hi Swing :
"Dear Roanoke Hi School, thy praises we'll
sing."

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>Photographs in this collection were produced for the 1928 City Planning Commission, which drew upon the 1907 Remodeling Roanoke: Report to the Committee on Civic Improvement by John Nolen, Landscape Architect from Cambridge, Massachusetts.  The 1907 published plan saw little action from the city and was renewed in 1928.  This project spanned the years 1927 through 1932.  The photographs date from this time period and show areas of Roanoke that, in the opinion of the Commission, needed improvement or were good examples for which the city should continue to strive.  Though 129 4"x6" prints are included in the collection, only 69 are included in the digital collection, as there were many duplicates.  A number of the photographs are included in John Nolen's Comprehensive Plan, City of Roanoke, 1928.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

Night Thoughts
I sometimes feel so f11 ll of thoughts at 11i,cd1t
l scarce kn o w ho \\' t0 put them intn \\'nrcb Places, peo ple, s tars ancl sonnets hright,
Darting sharply 'cross my brain like sworcls Half -completed ideas, ,,·aninJ:! fa s t,
Befo re they\·e had a chance to he expressed.
Firs t tho ughts a ll mixed with thoughts about the las t
or things e ncou111e red in the day; the hest
Inextricabl y jumbled with the \\'o rs t.
And l \\'Ou ld lie and pla n ahout the morrow.
Concentra te. ' ti ll it seemed my brain would burst
\Vith questions no ne can answer, joy a nd ~11rn1\\' !
Unless, while toi ling up this r ocky way,
A friend should meet me o n the hillside s t eep,
And take me br the arm and whisper. "StnyForget thyseH and rest a while with sleep."

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

UJqr §tnry nf inaunkr
OANOKE has been referred to as the "Magic City." As a matter of fact, there is no thing about its founding, its buildings, or its growth and development that bears the least semblance of anything magic.
Those who came here and took part in the work of building a city, those who saw the first houses go
up the completion of the first railroad, the erection of shops and furnaces, manufacturing plants, business and
d'~elling houses; those who have kept a close watch on its progress and steady growth during the past forty years,
know quite well that no mag ic wand ever touched these hills and valleys.
There has l~een l~ard, solid strokes of industry,-the hammer o f the artisan. The financi er. th e contractor, the
inves tor, th e merchant, th e manufacturer. the soil tiller, have planned and wo rked incessantly for days, months and
years to make R oanoke.the ideal city tha t w~ have today..
.
1
Periods of adversity have followed periods o f exultation, but the growth runnmg over a stretch of forty year:;,
has been substantial, sure and steady.
A stage stopping place officially designated as Gainsborough, but more common ly k nown as "Old Lick" was
the humble beginning of th e present city of Roanoke.
Gain sborough, while established in 1838, had in 1870 only a mill. a tavern, a stage station. three churches,
two or three stores and about fifteen d\Yelling l'\.ouses. In 1852 the Yirg inia &amp; T ennessee Ra ilroad established :i
station about three quarters o f a mile fro m " O ld Lick" and eventually a Yillage gr ew around it. which was called
"Big Lick." Under. that na.m: the town was incorporated m 1874, and in 1881 it contained only 600 inhabitants
wi th perhaps twenty-five bmld1ngs .
. . .
.
On F ebruary 3, 1882, an act of the V 1rg1111a Legislature was passed chang ing the name o f the village tu
ROA NOKE.
The coming here and on Jun e 18, 1882 the completion o f th e Shenandoah Valley R ail road was but the precursor o f the good fo rtun e that was to fo llow. T he old A. l\I. &amp; 0 . Railroad was purchased and re"rganized as the
N orfolk &amp; \ Vestern Railway with R oanoke as the headquarters, esta blishing here large machin e works, repair shops
and gen eral offices.
On January 31, 1884, the town o f R oanoke was chartered as a city . having by that time a populati on of abou t
five tho usand.
Between the years 1882 and 1884 may be dated the beg inning of the marvelous g rowth and progress of
Roanoke.
The United States census of 1890 gave Roanoke 16.159 population: that o f 1900 showed 21 ,495: according to
the census o f 1920 the population was 50,842 and is now in 19~2 estimated at close to 60,000. This is approximately
divided as 80% white and 20% negro. The community population is about 70,000.

�Municipal Building.

�The Virginian Railway, which was completed 1902-03, made Rqanoke one of its terminal points and this road
has d eveloped a great business, principally , however, as a coal carrier. This is really the purpose for which it
was built.
R oanoke is supplied with adequate and splendid railroad facilities and we are so situated that we have easy
and quick access in a ll directions over the lines of the N orfolk &amp; Western R a ilway system, both for passenger a nd
freight traffic.
Our lo cation geographically is ideal in the great Roanoke Valley of Virginia at its junction with the fam ous
S hena ndoah Valley . To the southeast are the Blue Ridg e Mountains and on the northwest th e A lleghany Mountains, thus the cold winds o f winter are tempered and during the summer the humidity is a lw ays below the averag e.
The altitude of the city is 907 feet above sea level, situated in latitude and longitude about on a plane w ith
Southern S pa in . T he rain fa ll is moderate a nd sunshine a bov e the average.
T h e env iro nm ents of the city are exceptio_nally beautiful, the ro lling nature o f the country and the adj acent
mo un tains affording a pleasing scene for the eye to rest upon , in whichever direction the traveler may jo urney .
E pidemics a re unknown and the locality is especia lly free from s ickness. R oano ke's ideal location, h igh altitucle, fine sanitation a nd un excelled water supply combining to make the city a m ost healthful place for residence.
From the solid rock at the base o f Mill Mountain , a spur of the Blue Ridge, b ursts forth the famous Crystal
Spring w ith a never-ceas ing flo w o f coo l sparkling water, cl ear as crystal, a nd with a volume tha t furni shes th e city
over five million gallons d aily.
G reat dams on Roan oke and New Ri vers, at points eas t a nd w est fro m here, g enerate electric power ample
fo r all purposes. The city is very well lighted by electricity a nd for manufacturing purposes we have abu ndan t
electric power at low rates.
R oanoke city s treets a re w ell paved or macadami zed and ev ery sectio n is protected w ith storm water drains
a nd sanitary sewers. \ Ne a re co nsta ntly improving the street a nd s ewer systems.
V./e h ave sati sfactory telephone service, meeting local requirements and long di stan ce connectio n with every

The gas supp ly is good and exten sive improvements are co n templa t ed, in cluding enla rg ing th e plant and

here and in close proximity a number of splendid colleges for young men and y oung wom en.

�Hotel Roanoke-" All the Comforts of Home, A'Way from Home .. ,
The Most Beautifully Situated Hotel in the State of Virginia.

�\V e have n umerous b eautiful parks and n ice p lay grou nds own ed and controlled by th e city and the work of
city betterments is a sou rce of p ride and co-operation among the people. The municipal building is one of the handsomest structures of its kind in Virgin ia.
Our government is the commission form, wh ich is g aining in popularity all over the country . Five business
m en form this commission. They are elected by popular v ote every four years and the city is con ducted on a busin ess li ke basis. A City Manager is employed by the Com m ission to su perintend details.
The city proper within its limits embraces about t en square miles, but we have many suburbs adjoini ng, all
o f which make our community spread over a wide area .
Our street railway faci lities reach all parts of the city and subu rbs on good schedules and a com mendable
thing about th is system is that the fa re remains 5 cent s. It was n ever increased, although a lm ost every other city
raised the fa re during the last several y ears.
W e have here eight banking institutions with capita l, surplus and profits approximating six m illion dollars
and carry ing deposits of about twenty three million dollars. T otal reso urces, thirty million do llars.
R oanoke is distinctly a city of churches and many of th e most im pos ing and costly structures in the State are
located h ere, n early every denomination being represen ted. A splendid Y . M . C. A . building is n ear the center of
the city, and the Y. W . C. A. an d Railroad Y. M. C. A . a re well organi zed. In this connection we cannot r efrain
fro m m entioning th e commendable work being done by th e Sa lvation A rmy, which owns a large building a nd ha s
other facilities for taking care of needy cases.
Some person o f prominence once said on visiting a city, "Sh ow m e the ho mes you have h ere and I will tell
you what so rt of people you are."
If there is any one parti cular th ing of wh ich a Roanok er is especia lly proud, it is the large number of bea utifu l hom es owned by so many of our people and in which each indi vidua l takes the g reatest p ride.
T his we believe in a large measure in dicates the stabili ty of our po pulation a nd as a consequence th e rea i
estate valuations are very g ratifying.
Besides th e N orfolk &amp; ·western Railway sho ps and gen era l offi ces , employ in g- in the n eig hborhood o f 5000
men and women, we have two larg e Companies manufact uring bridges a nd structura l steel, a lso a \' ery larg e nrtificia l silk facto ry.
\ Ve h ave iron furn aces, machine wo rks and manufacturers of m an y a rt icles shipped to p ractically every ~ta t e
in th e unio n and abroad, and numerous jobbing a nd who lesale ho uses h and ling a g reat ,·ariety of articles.
Our n ew ci ty market house and "market square" is open daily . except S unday and offers the cho icest m eats
and vegetables in abundance at moderate prices.
L ocated here is headquarters o f many la rge coal operators as R oanoke is at the l:&gt;a-ates of th e a~ rea t coal fi elds to
the west and this in dustry is directly beneficial to our city.
R oanoke is v ery frequently selected as th e most desira ble convention city in all this section on account of its

�ideal and beautiful location and the very satisfactory railroad facilities, also good hotel accommodation, the best of
which is the famed Hotel Roanoke. VVe have a large audifurium and other commodious places for meetings.
Our Post Office receipts sl;ow a wonderful business done from here, and we h ave morning and afternoon
editions of splendid newspapers connected with the Associated Press and International News services.
We have many modern office buildings, apartment houses and housing facilities to very satisfactorily take care
of the present population and now in course of construction there are hundreds o f new houses being erected to care
for the continuing growth.
Our hospitals, military companies with a rmory, our country and city clubs, fraternal organizations, automo·
bile association, amusement and recreation reso rts, theatres and athletic associations, a large park and swimming
near the city, leave nothing to be desired along these lines.
:t\ifill Mountain standing as a beacon and sentinel, rising about 1200 feet above the city and reached by incline
way, is a mecca for visitors. From this vantage point one has a never to be forgotten view of Roanoke, its
surroundings and a great panorama for twenty five miles or: more in all directions.
In January. 1904, the Chamber of Commerce was organized, the old Board of Trade and the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association merging into the new o rganization. This was in recent years reorgani zed and is now the
Association of Commerce, composed of the leading business and professional men.
The systematic work conducted by these organizations has given a strong impetus to the material development of Roanoke and the advancement of our business and manufacturing interests.
The people of Roanoke are broad-minded and liber2l and noted for their hig h feeling of civic pride and strong
sense of municipal loyalty. Most of them are quick to participate in any movement which concerns the public welfare and believing that whatever tends to the betterment of general conditions will be shared in by every citizen.
This broad policy of commercial co-operation, mutual help and concentration of purpose, assisted by liberal
financial support from our banking institution s. is the "Roanoke spirit", which has es tablished our fame as a place
richly endowed with all that contributes to make a people proud of their city and no matter where we go on business or pleasure we return here each time more conv inced that Roanoke is th e ideal place of abode.
\Vith her magnificent record of past achievements. R oanoke stands today as a queenly municipality, conscious
o f her many natural advantages, pulsating with pluck and virility, crowned " ;ith her well earned prestige as a city
of enterprise. energy and progress.
Vl/e invite our neighbors far and near to take advantage of the desirable things we have to offer here. to visit
us, to do business with us and to investigate the attractions we offer, to come here and live and be one of us-happy,
contented and prosperous people will welcome you and co-operate with you in the great spirit of achievement which
from the beginning and through the years has been so manifest in the development of our city.
There is, of course, much that cannot be included in this publication to tell and show the world what a desirable city we have, but we h ope that o ur efforts will not be in vain and that we have created a desire in every heart
which will make this book worth while to the city of Roanoke.

A City of Wonderful Prosperity and Unlimited.Resources, Ideal for Business and Residence;
Home of 34,874 Happy and Contented People. Third City in Virginia, according
to 1910 Government Census- Gain of 62.2 per cent. in Ten Years

HE ST O R Y of t he r ise of this great city t o its present prominent standing among the lea ding and importa n t munici palit ies of t he South r ead s
more like romance than rea lity. But "trut h is st ranger tha n fiction."
The city has gr own as if by the touch of magic, and is thus called the
"MAGIC CITY."
R OAN O KE has ever been the key to success for
every one, and it remains that key to-day and will ever continue. The greatness
of R O ANO KE seems t o have been foreordained by the forces of nature; the
fates have conspired t o ma ke it the greatest of a ll cities in this part of the w orld,
and give men and women a place to live and prosper and be happy. No city of
its class can approach it in grandeur, in wealth, in beauty, in peace, in plenty.
And as to its age, it is young, vigor ous, and strong.
IN the early stage-coach days, the village was known as "Big Lick," although
it was officially designated as Gainsbor o, a stage station on the Lynchburg and
Salem turnpike. The name was changed to ROA NOKE (same as t h e county)
Feb rua ry 3d, 1882, by act of State Legislature, and t h us ROANOKE began her
marvelous history with a population of four hundred inhabitants, and her rapid
g r owth is as follow s :

INCLUDING the immediate suburbs, the population exceeds 40,000. And
right here we suggest that you keep your eye on R O A NO KE and watch t he City
grow to 75,000 by 1920.

THE da ily papers, magazines a n d other publication s are constantly proclaiming t he story of th e rapid g row th an d magnificence of s om e of t hose remotely
located cities of the far W est. But right h ere at home is RO ANO KE-grand and
glorious R O ANOKE, with a wonderful record of substantial grow th, the equal
of any municipality on the American Continent. This young giant and rapidly
developing Magic City invites comparison with any city of her class that you can
name. T he farming, fruit growing, dair ying, lumbering, mining, wholesale, and
manufac turin g interests of ROAN OKE a r e un excelled. The soil is bounteous,
the mountains full of precious gift s. R O ANOKE count s much on her smokestacks and r ailroads, churches, schools, and colleges, beautiful homes and elegant
society.

THE a lt it ude of the City is nine h und red feet above sea level. It is situated
in the Roa noke V alley of V irginia, at its junction with the famous Shenandoah

l

�L

Valley, the Roanoke River flowing along its southern border. To the southeast
are the Blue Ridge Mountains, and on the northwest are the Alleghanies. The
environments of the City-a combination of charming, fer'tile valleys and mountains clear-cut against a Virginia-blue sky-are exceptionally beautiful and inspiring.

lege and Hollins Institute, both for girls; Roanoke College, for boys and girls;
St. Andrew's Academy ( Catholic), and two business colleges.
ROANOKE has theaters equal to any in the South; clubs and lodges; magnificent Elks' Home, country club, state league baseball, and best fair in Dixie;
and ROANOKE is the midway point on the National Highway from New York
to Atlanta.

AS to the healthfulness o~ this locality, it is only necessary to state that the
death rate is but fourteen per 1,000 total, or eleven per 1,000 white, which places .
the City among the very healthiest. The water supply of ROANOKE is one
of the g reatest blessings, and from the standpoint of health cannot be over estimated. Out of the solid rock at 'the base of famous old Mill Mountain, a spur
of the Blue Ridge, about one mile from center of City, bursts forth the Crystal
Spring, with a never-ceasing flow. of cool, sparkling water; clear as crystal, and
with a volume that furnishes over five million gallons per day. The temperature of the water is fifty-two degrees. Besides this never-failing supply of
water unsurpassed for drinking and culinary purposes, a free-stone water is
piped' f;om Bedfo~d County, which is particularly well adapte_d to and largely
used for manufacturing purposes, and for boilers of locomotives, stationary engines, etc.
ROANOKE is in close proximity to a number of noted mineral springs of
Virginia, the curative proper.ties of which are renowned throughout the world.
Among these are the Blue Ridge Springs, Coyner's Springs, Craig Healing
Springs, Yellow Sulphur, Alleghany Springs, White Sulphur, Crocketts, Roanoke Red Sulphur, Hot Springs, Warm Springs, and Greenbrier White Sulphur.

ROANOKE has many handsome and attractive homes, equal to those of any
city. Roanokers live well and cheap. The City is one of the greatest marketing
places in the South; the food stuffs are fresh. brought in daily from fine farms.
THIS City has superior railroad advantages, having an outlet to all points
north, south, east and west. This is the home of the Norfoljc and Western System- their general offices, railroad shops arid round houses, in addition- to ma~y
miles of trackage, being located here. This gives employment to a great number
of officials, clerks, and skilled mechanics, their monthly ·pay roll exceeding at
times one hundred and thirty thousand dollars. The fast trains from New York
to New Orleans pass through . ROANOKE, and this service is most excellent.
'The immense tonnage of coal from the famous Pocahontas fields all passes
through ROANOKE en route to the coal wharfs at Norfolk and Newport News.
ROANOKE also has a favored freight rate, having a five cents per hundred better rate than most of the shipping points in Virginia along her different lines of
road. This accounts
for the excellent and progressive wholesale
and manufac_,.,.
.
turing industries within her borders. The Virginian, recently completed from
Norfolk to Deepwater, W. Va., passes directly through ROANOKE on her southern border. Although this road is scarcely comP'leted, the tonnage is already immense, and the passenger service is high class, having excellent accommodations and fast schedules.

ROANOKE has a number of pretty parks, one on Mill Mountain, overlooking the City and valleys for many miles in all directions. The Incline Railway
which ascends to the top of the mountain, one thousand feet above the City,
is now the most attractive among the many points of interest in the City. This
great incline was built and completed during the past year. It starts from Crystal Spring, at the foot of the Mountain; the car begins its ascent on a moderate
grade, b1,1t after it has gone a hundred yar~s, its prow turns gradually upward
until it begins to look as if it contemplated a perpendicu~ar ascent. Two cars are
operated. They start simultaneously, one ascending and the other descending.
The capacity of each car is sixty people. No one can say he has seen. ROANOKE until 'he has made this trip. There is a fine hotel on top of the mountain
and splendid meals are served, and anything from a sandwich to a most elaborate dinner can be had. In the tower is a searchlight-one of the very largest
in use; also field glasses for the use of visitors.
ROANOKE has many handsome church'es, representing all denominations.
There are also thriving Central and Railroad Young Men's Christian Associa-

ROANOKE is steadily increasing in importance as a distributing center for
all classes of merchandise and manufactured articles. There are many firms operating in all lines of business, and the aggregate sales annually amount to millions of dollars. The many traveling salesmen cover the territory of the Virginias, Carolinas, Tennessee, Kentucky and other states. ROAN O KE eliminates
high manufacturing costs because it has practically inexhaustible raw materials at
her immediate command; excellent locations for factory sites, cheap power and
fuel, cheap labor, and unlimited distributing territory from every point along her
lines of railroad.
·
. ROANOKE has a fine street car system, electric and gas lighting plants,
excellent 'phone service, three daily newspapers, two telegraph and two express
companies, a number of modern hotels, three hospitals, and ample police and fire
protection. The City has four large National Banks and three Trust Companies,
furnishing ample capital for its .numerous industries.
ROANOKE is indeed a wonderful City. She is fully abreast of the times
and has a bright future. The official slogan of the City is "ACORN TO OAK,
WATCH ROANOKE."

The schools of ROANOKE are among the best. There are nine modern
public school buildings-eight thous~nd pupils and one hundred and t~ir.ty. teachers. Other educational institutions m or near ROANOKE are: V1rgm1a Col2

�ROANOKE FURNITURE COMPANY, CHURCH AVENUE

3

ROANOKE FURNITURE COMPANY, INC.-Furniture, general house
furnishings, pianolj, and organs, 15-17 Church Avenue West. The City of
ROANOKE is undoubtedly one of the most important centers in Virginia for
the trade in all goods pertaining to house furnishings, and a number of firstclass firms are in successful operation here. The Roanoke Furniture Company
began business three years ago, and almost immediately wonderful success
crowned the efforts of the promoters, and their business has rapidly forged
ahead until to-day the house stands in the very foremost ranks of the trade,
and the business is growing by leaps and bounds. The Company was reorganized in June of this year and the capital doubled, and since February 1st,
1910, has occupied its present building, which is fifty by one hundred feet in
dimensions and contains four floors. One of the most striking features of the
establishment is the big electric sign, which was erected at a cost of one thousand dollars and flashes one thousand brilliant electric bulbs that can be seen
at a great distance. This great sign extends fully across the top of the building, fifty feet, and is thirty feet high. This shows that the Company is not
afraid to spend money. They are believers in publicity. It is also a demonstration of the fact that the Company is already a success and simply doing an
enormous business, or such an expenditure would not be justified. That the
Company is doing such an immense business is also a demonstration of the
fact that they have the goods at the right prices and make the most liberal
terms. This is simply the whole story.
Their piano department is second to none, and here we find on display in
their elegant show rooms the famous and re liable productions, Steinway,
Kranich &amp; Bach, Blasius &amp; Son, Becker Bros., Cable-Nelson, and Keller &amp;
Dunham, where beauty of style, tone, artistic finish, and workmanship reig n
supreme. Mr. H. B. Hash, the President, prominently identified with the
business, having had long experience as a salesman in this line, has placed the
piano department of this progressive house in the front ranks in this territory,
and we strongly advise a thorough inspection of their piano department before
buying elsewhere. The officers of the Company are, H. B. Hash, President,
who for the past ten years has been identified with the sale of pianos in the
City; ]. W. Harsh, Vice President, a well-known resident and man of affairs ;
]no. E. Buck, Secretary, who has resided in the City for the past six years and
has been identified with the furniture industry; and S. M. Cornett, Jr., Treasurer and General Man:iger. Mr. Cornett comes from the beautiful blue-grass
section of Southwest Virginia and is regarded as one of the most popular,
prominent, and successful merchants and financiers in this section. Since his
connection with this Company, the business has taken on new life and the
future of the business is, indeed, very bright. All the members of the concern
believe firmly in the future success of ROANOKE, are working energetically
to satisfy the increasing demands of their customers, and are enthusiastic in
forging ahead to help make the City seventy-five thousand by 1920.

�THE BAYLOR COMPANY, INC.-Ladies' and children's suits, coats.
skirts, and furs, 33 Campbell Avenue West. Among the business of premier
rank in ROANOKE, a prominent place is held by the store of the Baylor Company, which stands foremost amon g the stores of this character. It is more generally known as the "Ladies' Ready-to-Wear Store." T he interior is handsomely
furnished, while the general stock is unsurpassed for its high quality and latest
styles. It is tastefully arranged, and the establishment throughout presents a
most attractive and enticing appearance to the visitor. Mr. R. ]. Baldwin, President and General Manager of the Co:npany, is most ably directing the business.
He has a perfect knowledge of the requirements of the high-class trade, and
there is no need for the ladies of ROANOKE to look fu rther than this s t or e to

Senate is first found in the popularity of its managem ent, and second, in its sumptuous fittings. It is one of the handsomest places in ROANOKE, and has just
been established since September 20th, 1910. Mr. Hanna is conducting the Senate
on business principles and is making it a study to supply his patrons with the best
quality of everything, and is winning much praise. He buys direct from the distilleries through bonded warehouses, thus insuring absolute purity and fine quality. He is not subject to the dictates of any one and does not tolerate the sale of
cheap or adulterated concoctions. Mr. Hanna is a native of Glasgow, Scotland,
but came to America when he was but five years of age and grew to manhood in
the g;eat City of Philadelphia. He came to ROANOKE in 1887, and has been
prominently identified with the commercial life of this City since that period, and
has always taken an active interest in everything for the common good and general welfare and upbuilding of the City. He is now a member of the City Council
and we look for much good from him during his term of office, which expires
in 1912.

CHI NA, ART AND BOOK STORE. INC.-15 Campbell Avenue West. Few.
if any, of the cities of the entire South can boast of a more thoroughly up-to-date
store of this character than ROANOKE, and in this well-equipped and attractively arranged store, one can purchase anything desired in the line of fine imported and domestic china, artists' materials, draftsmen's supplies, books of all
kinds, high-grade stationery, office supplies. Globe Wernicke filing cabinets, sectional bookcases, Monarch typewriters , art pictures and picture framing, East

R O ANOKE and hope to see the City grow to seventy-five thousand population

management has not fallen below the standard set at that time, and every effort
has been made to make this a first-class store in every particular. The motto is to
"Satisfy Customers," and to treat them courteously at all times; and this, togethe r
with skillful management, undoubtedly accounts for their large and rapidly increasing business.

HOTEL ROANOKE-Fred E. Foster, Proprietor. No hotel south of New

and insistence on having everything that a modern hotel should have. The H otel
Roanoke is a handsome specimen of Queen Anne architecture, with broad piazzas,
sun parlors, etc., with a beautiful arrangement of palms and plants. The hotel
stands within its own ornamental grounds of some ten acres, which are beautifully
laid out with well-kept walks and driveways, fountains, flower beds, shrubbery,
and hedges. The illustration which appears in this publication gives the reader

apt expression in this hotel-from the g r ound floor to the very dome. The man agement takes a pardonable pride in the refinement and distinction of its clientele,
and has established a reputation for catering to persons of discrimination. Mr.
Fred E. Foster, the proprietor, has spent some thirty-five years of his life in the
hotel business, and has been connected with the Hotel Roanoke since 1888. He
therefore, knows how a fine hotel like t his should be conducted, and we cannot

fac1hhes for storing the beer under an even temperature until it becomes mellowed by age, making it of even quality and of unequalled flavor." The special

and I crn tones have been can·cd out from an expanse of wilderne~s . and cities have g rown up Like an exhalation. Presage and

potential, and what m ight in the old world have been considered
as a short space of time, has here sufficed to create a city with swar ming
thousands, replete with a ll the products of the soil, resonant with the hum
of manufacture and abounding with the tr easures of art and comfor t.
Asce.ncl to the roof of a ny of the blocks in the center of the city, and look
at m1~lday on the scenes beneath and stretching around you ; lofty buildings,
beautifu l churches,. and a teem ing population meet the sight . Industry,
competence and en3oyment are evinced in every quarter. There seems no
merchandise but what has its mart- but few interests ,,·i thout its r epresentative. All facilities for travel abound, the electric car upon the paved
str~et or the m iles of walk for the passing- throng. The melody of bell~ proclaims the Aeeting hours or her alds t he cessation or renewal of a multiform
of industry.
It is not our pur pose in this wor k to enter into minute details concerning
~h~ early history a nd settlement of the locality which is now Roanoke: \':et

In 1884, as we have already said, the population of Roanoke was about
5.000 people. In 1890 the U nited States census gave the city a population
of 16,159, and in i900, 21,495· At the present time it is safe to say that
within the corporate limits are resident not less than 26,000 persons, and
within t he suburbs and including the towns of Salem and Vinton which are
connected with the city by electric cars, there can not be a total population of
less than 30,000 souls.
vVe have said enough here of the past; our business is now with the
present, with living men and their occupations, enterprises, and successes;
what they are doing for themselves in manufactures, commerce, and finance
and in contributing to and in advancing the progress and welfare of the
community.

LOCATION, CLIMATIC, AND SANITARY.
Roanoke is situated in Roanoke County and is one of the principal
stations on the Norfolk and ·western Railway. It abuts upon the Roanoke
River which is located on its southern border and which offers also a ·water

power which if developed \\·ould be of large value for manufacturing purposes. There are a series of falls below the city which have a drop altogether
of about fifty feet.
Roanoke is in latitude of 39° 20' north, longitude 80° west, or about. on
a plane with Spain and North Africa. It is distant 453 miles from ::\cw
York, 267 miles from Baltimore, 764 miles from Chicago, II9 miles fr?m
Danville, 647 miles from Jacksonville, 53 miles from L~1 11chburg, 825 miles
from Mobile, 885 miles from New O rleans, 257 miles from Norfolk, 455
miles from Pittsburg, 3,030 miles from Portland, Oregon, 199 miles from
Richmond, 3,128 miles from San Francisco, 508 miles from Savannah. 807
miles from St. Louis, and 227 miles from \IVashington.
Roanoke lies in what is generally known as the Roanoke Valley. On the
southeast is the Blue Ridge range of mountains and on the north\\·e.st are
the Alleghanies. Across the billowy stretches of green, the blu~ hill ~ of
~hese. mountain peaks present to the eye one of the most charm.mg views
1111ag111able. The slopes of the hills are covered with valuable timber and
under the surface lie valuable minerals. including- iron ore. limestone, manganese, coal, etc. \ Vithin recent Years some of these mineral resources han'

been developed and others ,,·ill be made commercially valuable in the near
future. Not far from Roanoke is Catawba .i\Iountai n, better known as t he
Great Catawba Sand i\Iountain. P racticalh· all of the soil of this is silica
sand, yielding 98Ys per cent. of unwashccl sand ,,·Jiich experts ha\·e pronounced particularly suitable for making all kinds of glassware. In connection 1Yith the above it is contemplated building a railroad from here to
Newcastle, Craig County. which 11·/Jen completed 1rill largely facilitate the
development of the property. The road wiJJ a/so rnn through heds of
iron ore which ha \·e been pronounced to IJC: among the richest in this section.
Roanoke is surrounded on all sides by a country rich in natural reso1.u~es.
The valley land immediately adjacent to the city is covered with productive,
weII-kept farms, succulcnl pastures and handsome orchards.
..
The climate of Roanoke leaves but little to be des ired. The equability
of temperature and precipitation from year to year and t he freedom from
excessive heat and cold show the adaptability of the climate for t he successful carrying on of all branches of industry. T he average temperature
of Roanoke is a mean between that of New York and F lorida. The thermometer seldom goes above 90° and then only during the ver y hottest season

and only for a space of a few da~·s al a time. There is usual ly but little.
snow in winter and it seldom rcmams on the ground more than a few hours
and a killing frost is of comparatively rare.occurrence. The city and district
are particularly free from excessive rnrn_s, tornadoes. blizzards, waterspouts, earthquakes . and other disasters \\'h1ch so often devastate other sections. The humidity during th e hottest months is below the averao-e and
in the evening of each day there is always a cooling breeze which invites
sleep and invigorates lmmanit):- This brcez~ se_ems to come generally from
the northwest through a break 111 the mounta ins Ill that direction.
Roanoke also is one of the healthic;o:;_t cities in the country. It is elevated
above the sea-level about I,ooo feet . I here are no epidemics here and the
locality is generally free from prevailing sickness. Particular attention is
paid by the city authorities to sani tary regulations. Special efforts are
now about to_be made to !mprove the sewage facilities. A t the present time
about two-thirds of the c1_ty have mocle1_-11 sewerage conveniences, but plans
are now under way wh1ch will provide complete sewag·e arrangements
for every part of the city. \V1th 1·ega_rc1 to the '~ate r supply, but few cities

comes from what is well named Crvstal Spring. direct out of the solid rock.
This gives a supply of over 5.000,000 gallons of pure clear water daily,
practically sufficient for a city of three times th e size of Roanoke. \.\Tater is

also supplied by the Vinton-Roanoke Water Company. whose supply comes
from Bedford County. T his water is particularly adapted for manufacturing purposes, being a freestone water and having little sediment.
T he negro population of Roanoke is Jess in proportion than in almost
any other cit:· of the South. and those that are here are generally among the
best representatives of their race and not of that class that altogether disregard the laws of health. There has never been any racial trouble or disturbance at Roanoke.

It has been said of Roanoke : "A climate never approa.ching the
severity of the ;\' orth, a healthfulness unquestioned . and freedom from the
virulence of malarial diseases, enable Roanoke to offer no mean attraction
to the invalid. the pleasure-seeker, and the summer tourist. The locality is
a charming abiding-place and the t raveler may here take 1·est while choosing
his next poin t of vantage to seek 'green fields and pastures new' in a
journey in any direction ."

It would be idle fo r us to attempt to portray the growth and developof the City of .Roanoke without referring to the Norfolk and \ i\T estern
Railway, to which is due not only its prosperity but the very existence of t.he
place. It was in the vear 1882 that Roanoke was selected as the central pornt
of the Nor folk and \Vcstern s,·stcm. and since then the qity has continued
to advance and prosper. Here arc located the principal offices of the company, as many as 700 clerks, assistants, and others being employed. .At
Roanoke also is in stalled Yast machine shops where repairs to the rolling
stock, etc., arc done, and which g ive employment to a force of about ! .8~o
skilled mechanics and others. The infl uence which the employment ot this
large number of men exerts over the well-being and prosperity of the place
can not be overestimated, as will be readily reali zed from the fac:t that the
very large sum of about $r 50.000 is 111011 t hh· paid out in wages. and most
of this is distributed among th~ mercha nts i1crc in payment for the necessities and conveniences of li Ying" T he company have alc;o shops at Bluefield.

T he origin and nucleus of the Norfolk and \iVestern Rai lway was the
:Norfolk and Petersburg Railroad, eighty-one miles in length, charter ed and
fi rst operated in 1852. Following this was the acquisition of the Southside
Railroad running between Petersburg and L y nchburg, i 23 m iles, which
though chartered in 1846 was not completed and in operation until 1857.
The Virginia and Tennessee Railroad between L y nchburg and Bristo l, 204
miles, also began operations in 1857, although chartered in 1849. 'T h e abo:re
companies were consolidated in 1870 under the name of th e Atlantic, TVI1ssissippi and Ohio Railroad, being then under the management o f General
'William Mahone. There were also included branch roads to City Point a'?-d

and reorganized as the ::-.Jorfolk and \ Vestern l{ailroad Company. In May,
1882, the New River Railroad of V irg inia, the ?\cw River Railroad of \Vest
V irginia, and the \\lest V irg inia and E ast River Rail road were consol idated
with the Norfo.lk and \Vestern . T his branch was opened i\fay 21st, 1883,

The Lynchburg and Durham D ivision, constructed in 1891, originally
operated by an independent company. was leased to the Norfolk and \i\Testern
Railway, March 1st, 1892, on which date the company also acquired under a
long -time lease the Roanoke and Southern Railroad. The Cincinnati, Portsmo uth and Virginia Railroad from Por tsmouth, O hio, to Cincinnati, was ab··
sorbed in 19ot. All of the above lines were consolidated w ith the reconstruction of the Nor folk and Western Railway, into what is now k nown as
the Norfolk and ·western Railway System. T he total present m ileage of the
road is I ,542 miles and branches 179 miles, total l ,721 m iles. This with second

T he rolling stock owned and operated by t he company is as follows:
70 passenger locomotives, 469 freight locomotives, and 40 s\vitching engines.
They have 278 passenger cars, 25,801 freight cars. 566 maintenance of way

INDUCEMENTS TO MANUFACTURERS.
There is no question but that Roanoke affords a hig hly aclvantaaeous
location for the establishment of cer tain lines of manufacture. Locat~d on
the_line of one_of the g1~eates_t railro~&lt;l systems of _the country with frequent
t rams connecting the city direct with every section of the U nited States,
material can with facility accumulate here. Opportunities are presented in
many instances superior to those offered in larger cities, for the reason that
while equally favorable cond itions prevail, the cost of living and t herefore of
production is lower, and that to-day at Roanoke most advantageous s ites for
factories and shops are available at low cost. In regard to help, a most im-

material for such industries as do not require strictly skilled labor, and the
large cities not very distant could supply more experienced artisans t han at
t he outset would be required; thus there would be no dearth of s uitable help
when the demand arises. This city and its inhabitants are prepared to ·welcome any who may cast their lot with us and \Yill extend to them every

detail in brief some of the general advantages of this city :
.
. r. It possesses good railroad facilities connectiug it directly. i~ith the
entire. country, opening up all parts for its products, and for obta111111g raw

2.
It is located in one of the most fertile an d prod11cti1.'e sections of the
State and the South generally.
3. It is in direct and contiguo us co111wction w ith the g reat l111nber and
coal regions of this and neighboring States.

4. It has a complete system of electric cars in operation. The city is
well lighted by gas and electricity, abundantly supplied with pure water·
and it is efficiently policed. rendering life an d property secure and well

protected. There is an efficient paid fire department well manned and
equipped, securing to the city the lowest insurance rates.
5. The local governm ent ·is based upon the strictest ideas of econoni31
consistent with safe and secure progress, and the spirit of the people is
decidedly in favor of such measures as shall keep t he rate of taxation low.
while at the same time all real improvements arc well supported.
6. The p11blic school system 1·s among the best iu the South and affords
excellent opportunities and facilities. There c..re also located here and in
the vicinity three colleges for young men and women of the highest order
of merit and of national reputation, and also a commercial college. T he
social advantages here are numerous, the tone of society heal thy, and the
general morals of the community will compare favorab ly with any city
North or South.

ST. ANDREW'S CATHOLIC CHU RCH

7- The cost of 1-iving here is fully as low if not lower than most citieJ
of the South.
8. The climate can not be e.-rce/led, and as before said the sanitary
arrangements are of the best.
9.. Ava_ilable sites for manufactures are in plenty, and are low in price,
and residential property may be obtained upon advantageous terms.
IO. It has the best hotel accom.modatious of any city of the same size in
the South and excels many of greater population.
But few places offer better inducements to the large and small manufacturer t~an does Roanoke at present. The latter does not need to build an
e~~ens1ve _plant, the electric company supplying electric power for all kinds
~ mdustnes upon reasonable terms. Roanoke is the natural trading center
or a larg_e expanse of surrounding country, and t here are numerous local
wa~ts which could be supplied from here instead of obtaining them from
a chstance. T he question has been asked, "\Nhat can adva ntageously be·

made at Roanoke?,. T he answer might be : Everything of which the ra~v
material can readily and economically be brought here, or is near-by. There is
no reason why certain goods could not be made l;ere as well. or as ~h.eaply
as in the North. O ne thing in regard to Roanoke s geographical pos1t1on is
that it is not too far :\orth to cater for Southern markets, nor is it too far
South to debar it from ~orthern trade. Among articles \\'hich could be made
here and which we believe would find a read,· market in this section, are all
products made of wood, such as buckets, tubs, bread bowls, rolling-pins,
washboards, etc. Almost every freight train which comes here brings to the
city consignments of this class of goods to be distributed from here within
the territory dependent on this city. In fact, almost all small manufactures
could he advantageously made here. The means Roanoke's citizens have
accumulated arc largely required fo r their present industries, but newcomers
\\'ith capital will find local business men and local capitalists ready a nd willing to join hands with skilful and experienced managers.

WHOLESALE TRADE.
T he wholesale t rade of Roanoke has every facility for doing business,

the city being the center of a thriving and grow ing section of the country.
The various lines here represented are in the hands of men of business
ability and enterprise. They buy their goods in every case direct from manufacturers, importers, and fi rst hands generally. As a matter of fact, Roanoke's wholesale merchants hold their own throughout Southwestern Virginia
and in addition. m~1~ y of them have built up a large trade throughout tb is
State, \i\Test V1rg1111a. North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky,
and the South . Their salesmen on their trips pass competitors from New
York, Philadelphia , Baltimore, Richmond, and other trade centers, and get
their goods jn well against these sharp rivalries. This they are enabled to
do by means of t~orougl~ly un.derstanding their trade, taking small p rofits,

strengthened by the fact that failures arc practically unkn0\\"11 among them.
Most of them discount all their bills, and the advantages thus derived are
shared with their patrons.
The merchandise brokers and manufacturers· agents, who constitute a
very important adj unct to the wholesale grocery, produ ce, and grain trade
here, also do a good business and transact important operations, being in
constant direct telegraphic communication with their consignors and markets.
In connection with Roanoke's wholesale trade, special reference is due
to the bus.iness transacted in country produce, foreign and domestic fruits,
etc. This is a featnrc of the city's business which has greatly developed
within the past few years. This vicinity is a large producer of country produce of all k inds, which is shipped here, not only to find a home market,
but to be despatched and diffused within a wide range of territory. Wholesale dealers here also have the best of facilities for obtaining Cal_iforn ia and
Florida fruits and early produce, and they receive bananas, cocoantits, and
other foreign fruits direct from the ships as they arrive at the ports of entry.
There are here engaged in the produce and fruit trades a group of enterpris-

up to rlate as possible. One fact that enhances the citv's retail trade ts that
Roanoke is the trading center of an important agrietiltural country, and a
large amount of business is drawn here to swell the o·eneral aggregate of
retail transactions. Another point is that the residents""of this city are ~ell
employed at good wages and are prosperous, and thev believe in circulating

or burying them in the ground. The retail trade of this city is conducted by
individuals and firms comprising men of experience, enterprise, and integrity.
All departments of endeavor find representatives and all seem to be doing
good business.
COAL.
One of the most noticeable features of Roanoke within recent years is
the fact that from here is t ransacted a very large and increasing trade in
coal, and that some of the most important houses engaged in the sale and
shipment of coal have offices here, and that others make this city their
headquarters. A number of mines in the coal regions have also their ex ecutive offices at Roanoke. We do not intend to speak here of the coal districts.
T hat would hardly come within the scope of a book reflective of Roanoke,
but the fact that much of the distributive bus.iness of those sections is transacted from here adds naturally to the reputation of the city. Recently the
Pocahontas Coal and Coke Company, who are the owners of the coal lands

PERRY BUILDING, OPPOSITE POSTOFFICE

in the Pocahontas coal districts, have established their offices here. This company do not mine the coal. but lease out the mines to the operators upon a
royalty. T he coal distributors who have offices ai·e the well-known firms o f
Castner, Curran &amp; Bullitt, who are the sole shippers and sellers of the celebrated C. C. B . Pocahontas coal ; Jewett, Bigelow &amp; Brooks, of Detroit, who
handle Tug River, Pocahontas, and other coals; T he Hull Coal and Coke
Company, w ho are sole agents for Pocahontas coke and Red Jacket coal;
The American Coal Company, of New York, who market Pulaski anthracite
in this section; The Montgomery Anthracite Coal Company, and the Clear
A ir Anthracite Coal Company, producers of V irginia anthracite, represented
by the Stras-,Valton Company here, and D. H. Matson, who handles alJ
kinds of coal and coke on commission. Through the above houses many
thousands of tons of the mineral are annually disposed of and there is every
reason to anticipate an increased expansion of this department of Roanoke's
busin ess.
REAL ESTATE.
The demand for real estate has in recent vears settled down to a steadv
and satisfactory one. D uring the so-called "boom " oE 1886-93 there were

-------- -----------

inflated values, but the effects of this unhealthy stimulation have long been
totally eliminated. No\.v there is a steady and conservative advancement
which is sure to be permanent. Property when sold almost always brings all
that it cost and a fair margin of profit. Outside investors can depend upon
finding in Roanoke real estate a lucrative method of placing money which
will yield them good interest and which is certainly preferable to investments in a certain class of industrial schemes fu ll of water and which were
only created for the benefit of their promoters. as the past year has demonstrated to the cost of thousands. Building in Roanoke has been steady. both
in dwellings and business blocks, and 1903 has been no exception, notwithstanding the advance in the pr,ice of materials. Roanoke might well be called
a city of homes. Land is not held at fancy prices and the reasonable rate

at which the mechanic or the young business man is able to experience t_he
great benefit of owning· his own home has advanced the welfare of tl~ e city
and has created a class of citizens who are content and are bound up with the
interests of the community. Rented property also ,is always in demand,
and as before said is profitable and serves as the best means of sound
investment. The real estate agents here are entitled to much credit and
they have contributed in no small cleoTee to the activit\· of the general real
estate move~nent. The business is r:presentecl by men' of energ)'., integrity
and enterpnse. Investors from a distance who are interested w.dl do well
to enter into correspondence with any of the real estate firm s sketches C?f
whose business and facilities will be found detailed in the second part of this
volume. The1·e will be found on their books all kinds of real estate for
investments-improved and unimproved properties. vacant lots for business
purposes, manufacturing sites. farn1 and mineral properties . etc. There is
no doubt but that Roanoke to-day furni shes the best of mediu111s for the plac-

ing of funds where they will fructif y and increase, a t the same time furnishing a sure and staple form of per manent income.
FARMING AND TRUCKING.
Roanoke is the center of one of the best agricultural sections of the
State and offers the best inducements to the farm er, fruit a nd vegetableg rowing, etc. The general surface of the country is hig h above the sea-level
a nd is sufficiently rolling to afford good drainage, which is further facilita ted
by numerous streams of ru nning water. T he soil is largely disintegrated
limestone, which is par ticularly well adapted for the growth of t he finest
g rass for pasture. By the proximity of the mountains a nd other climatic conditions, a seasonable rainfall is assured. a nd good, clea r wate1· can be obtained
from springs and wells in nearly all localities. Farming either on a large or
small scale can be prosecuted under highly favorable conditions. T he

PERRY BU ILDING, CAMPBELL AVENUE

country is well adapted to the g rowth of wheat , c01:n, oats, all grasses, potatoes. cabbage, and a ll vegetables g row n in northern and central sections. It
is one of the finest g razing countries in the State and especially adapted fo r
the fattening of cattle and sheep fo r the table. T he breeding of horses can
be carried on \Yith facility. One of the features of the farms adjacent to
Roanoke is the g rowing of fru its and vegetables and all ki nds of truck. This
industry has proven highly lucrative and successful. Roanoke affords a good
outlet for the a bove, but now truckers a re largely increasi ng- their output
a nd produce is shipped from here to distant parts, largely through the mean s
of the ·wholesale produce dealers of the city. I n a nd a round this district a re
a large number of canners of fru its and vegetables of a ll ki nds, the goods
being shipped to all parts of the country a nd holding the highest reputation
in the markets.
Not far from R oanoke is the celebrated V irg in ia pippin belt, w hich produces the finest apples grown a nywhere. They are known as the A lbema rle
pippin, or as some call them, the Back Creek pippin. T hey a rc the pride of
the countn· a nd they are shipped North in la rge quantities, mainly fo r expor t

to Engla nd. T he production of this fr uit has proved very successfu l and
profitable, the apples fetching the highest prices in the market.
Strawberry culture if properly carried out would p rove very successful,
and they could be shipped at a time between those grown in Florida and the
advent of the home-g rown fruit in northern sections.
A profitable source of income if attended to carefully is the raising of
poultry. Chickens. turkeys, ducks, geese, and eggs are always in demand,
and the market fo r them is right here on the spot. In fact. farmers from the
North would clo well to leave a land which is frozen up more than half the
year and come to Southwest Virginia and partake of the blessings and
opportunities here offered them. Good fa rming lands can be obtained at
comparatively low prices per acre, according to soil and proximity to markets.
There are all conveniences in thi$ district-good country schools, churches,
good roads and railway facilities. Enquiries addressed to the Secretary of
the Chamber of Commerce, or to any of the real estate men mentioned in

indebtedness of any city in the State of Virginia of equal population, and
the rate of ta.-xation is but $i.25 per $roo, also the lowest rate of taxation
under like conditions. T he assessed value of property is $13,158,881, but
this is below the real value, which approximately is about $16,000,000.
T hus the ratio of taxation is really less than indicated. In other cities
the assessment is often up to the full value of the property.
The city's bonds are all above par and are considered by high financial
authorities to be gilt-edge securities. W ithin a recent period part of the
debt has been refunded at lower rates of interest, which will tend yet further
to reduce the rate of taxation.
The Mayor of the city is Joel I-I. Cutchin. S. S. Brooke is Clerk of
Courts, \i\laller M. Turner is City Treasurer, W. E. Thomas is City Clerk,
and J. H. Wingate is City Engineer. A ltogether it may be said that Roanoke
to-day presents in every way the aspect of a healthy, well-governed city,
where law and order reign and where life and property a re as efficiently
protected as in any city in the land.

CITY HALL ANO JAIL

ELECTRIC TRACTION, LIGHT, AND P OW ER.
There is no interest in the city that has contributed more to its advancement and convenience than has the enterprise which is now conducted under
the name of the Roanoke Railway and E lectric Company. In tracing briefly
the history of street traction here. we must premise that it was in the year
1888 that an organization known as the Roanoke Street Railway Company
commenced operating a horse-car line in this city. In 1889 they built a
dummy line between Salem and Vinton and continued to carry on the business until 1892. In that year this company was bought out by new parties
who the following year (1893) changed the road over to an electric line.
In 1889 this company was reorganized and was consolidated with the
Roanoke Light and Power Company under its present designation of the
Roanoke Railway and Electric Company. Its interests were held by local
parties until January, 1903, when the present proprietorship assumed control
and subsequently the plant and facilities have been materialJy improved and
extended.
The company now operate nineteen and a quarter miles of electric
railway, extending from the junction of Jefferson Street and Campbell
Avenue in the center of the city, in al l directions, and also from Salem, seven

and a half miles west, to Vinton, two and a half miles east, passing through
Roanoke in transit. T he equipment of the road is entirely up to date and
modern. There are in use altogether about thirty cars, including seven new
double-truck convertible cars, a new modern freight car used between Vinton
and Salem, and a sprinkling car for sprinkling the roads, all of the latter
having been recently installed. The cars are operated within sufficiently
frequ ent intervals, according to the season. and a degree of system and order
supervenes which contributes materially to efficiency.
vVhile speaking of the street car system reference is clue to tbe new
Mountain Park recently purchased and laid out by the Company. This property covers about 36 acres and it is located on the west side of Mill Mountain, about a quarter of a mile west of Virginia College. The gr ound was
purchased A ugust, J 902, an.cl work was commenced on it in April, 1903.
It is laid out in walks and Aower beds, and groves for picnicking, and has
seats, swings, etc., for the convenience and comfort of the public. It has
one of the best casino buildings in the South. In the season there are here

provided attractive stage entertainments, vaudeville, opera, and c&lt;;&gt;1~nedy, by
the best artists. There will be added this summer a dancing pavilion. All
the amusements are free except a small charo·e beincr made for the entertainment performances. The park was open la~t year ~-ind was very s~iccess­

etc., this place 1s unexcelled and 1t has met with Jarcre apprec1at1on and favo
with the public. There is a frequent service to the park by the cars throughout the summer and fall seasons.
In regard to the light and power departments we will state that the
Company have in operation in Roanoke 6,ooo incandescent lamps and 35°
arc lamps u sed for city lighting and business houses. They also . st~pply
power for the operation of all kinds of factories, elevators, etc. This. is an
important feature of Roanoke's facilities enabli1w all kinds of enterprises to
be installed here without the expense of having-"' to put in complicated and
costly operative appliances.
.
The Company have lately made extensive improvements to their power
house and, .indeed, at all times are expanding its facilities and efficiency.

which in point of detail will bear favorable comparison with any S out her.n
city. There are here in operation one H ig h School for wh ite sch ola rs and
five grammar schools for white pupils. T he colored schools are t wo in
number. The public school buildings are well built and the newest and m ost
approved methods of study are employed, and new apparatus is int roduced
as occasion requires. T he pupils are almost invariably found willing to improve their opp_o rtunities, with a keen appreciation of the advantages offer ed .
The standmg of the g raduates of the High School of Roanoke at the
U niversity of Virgin ia, and at ·washington and Lee U ni versity, V irginia
Polytechnic Institute, V irginia 1\IIilitary Instit ute, and other institutions, has
been most excellent and is proof of the thorough instruction offered at that
institution .
There are in Roanoke's schools sixty-three teachers who have been
chosen for their qualifications alone, and not for private or political ends.
Besides the public schools, reference must be made to S t. Andrew 's
Parochial Scho?I for_ Roman . Catholics. T his is conducted u nder the supervision of the l atholic eccles1astical authorities. It is admirably conducted

Most of the churches maintain associations for the relief of human want,
and in addition there are a number of organizations whose missions are enlisted in charity's sacred cause. Of these, specially noticeable is the Charity
Organization Society, the City Hospital. as well as the public almshouse maintained by t he city for the housing of the indigent poor.
P rivate charity is ever active to make the path of the unfortunate and
helpless easier, regardless of color or race, and those that are really worthy
seldom have a deaf ear turned towards them.
SOCIETIES, AMUSEMENTS, ETC.

In the way of amusements and societies there is much to make life in
Roanoke pleasant and agreeable. T here is a first-class and well-appointed

ROANOKE FAIR.
Special reference is here due to the first Fair g iven at Roanoke by the
organization now known as the Virginia State Fair, at Roanoke. During the
past year a popular movement was set on foot by a number of bu siness men
here to establish an annual fair at Roanoke. T heir efforts culm inated in the
purchase and the laying out of grounds covering- an area of 37 acres. O n
the property were constructed suitable buildings and a g rand stand and a
half-mile t rack. T he fair held from October 2 rst to 24th, inclusive. \ms an
emphatic and pronounced success. T he number of paid adm ission s aggregated about 20,000, and the organization made a net profit of $z.500- about
ten per cent. of the subscribed capital. T he racing was esp ecially good and
en joyable, and horses competing sent hither from New York, V irg inia, \~est
\·irginia, ~orth Carolina . \Vashington. and other localit ies. H.esul ts &lt;level-

minutes at Greensboro. T he recent fai r showed marked appreciati on of its
featu res on the part of the residents of this city and surrounding districts.
:\o sim ilar fair attracted more exhibitors of a better class. Few s howed a
larger attendance. One advantage which the city gains in connection with
this function is that the facili ties here available arc attracting t he attention
of horsemen to this point as winter quarters for housin g- and t rai ning
horses. there being at the present time some twenty-five horses dom iciled on
the g rounds. In the possession of this fai r the city has now one of a number of in stitutions which surprise the stranger and cause v isitors to estimate

ha\·c met the success that his experience in the busi11~:ss \\'Ould tully warrant.
i\Ir. ,\latson ·s energies are de\·otccl co the handling and sale of t:oal and ~okc

I\f r. l\Iatson, by reason of his lengthened and practical experi en ce, is par t1cuJarly in a position to cater well to the demands of patrons. He was t h e first

THE CITY OF ROANOKE.

ROANOKE HARDWARE COMPANY, Wholesale and Retail H ardware , Etc.
22 West Campbell Avenue.

The original inception of this business da~cs back a nu1~1bcr of yca~s,
when it was founded as Watts, Hell &amp; Ernns. Some changes m the proprietorship subsequently transpired until in the year 1899 the l'rice-Armcs Company became the proprietors. F inally, in June, 1901, the present c?mpany
and proprietorship assumed control. The gentlem~n n?''' co1~ducl111g the
business are A. H . H. Boyd, president, who has been 1dent1fit:d \\'1th the hard\\'are trade for the past twelve years; S. F . \Voody, ,·ice-president, who has
had five years' e..xperiencc; I. ).l. \Varren, secretary and treasurer , who has
been in the business for l\\'O years, and \ V. D. Clemer, gener'.11 manager! who
has had a practical experience of the hard\\'are trade extending O\·er th!rt~·cn
years. The company occupy at the above address a thrt:e-story blll ld111g
27 x 100 feet in area, in addition to a single-story wan.:houst: at the rca1·,
which is of the dimensions of 87 x 50 feet. T he stock cmuraces shdf a nd
general hardware. builders' hardware, agricultu ra l implemc:nts,. fircarm.s,
fencing . paints, oils, and, in fact, a thousand and one a rti cks \\'h1ch arc 111
daily request by a ll classes. T he stock is very large and varied a nd aggn.·gatcs thousands of dollars in value. T he company arc special agt:1~ t ~ here
for the cdebratecl O liver Chilled plows, El"·ood wire fences, Davi s p ure
pain ts, and other specialties of ackno\\'lcclgecl merit and utility. T he house
obtains its supplies direct from manufacturers and first hands generally, buying for cash in large quantities under the most favorab~e conditi&lt;?ns. The
patronage of the house is mainly drawn from the territory contiguous to
Roanoke and from Southwest \ "irg-inia generally, several tra\'clcrs rcpr.esenting it on the road. The concern is eminently an up-to-date one, c~lenng to
the best interests of the public and the trade. Since the reorganization of the
house the business has more than doubl&lt;.:cl. The enterprise has on ly met with
that degree of success to which it is rightfully entitled, and this result. is
emphasized in the inducements and ad\'antagcs it stands ready tn accord its
patrons.

In this city this vocation is represented by the subj ect o f this sket~h,

six 01 eioht years, and to general 1nvesttgat1ons of this cha racter, lll Virgmia
and .other States'. during the past fifteen years. By reason of these careful
studies of .the m111eral resources of the South M r. Engle is specially fitted
~o speak w ith autl~or~ty on these subjects, and he is frequ ently called upon by
!nvest?rs ~nd capitali sts, and also by owners of mining proper ty, to conch!ct
~nvest!gations a nd !11ake reports on mineral products and min ing properties

the apartments are well furnished and cheerful
T h e house is fitted up with all modern convenien ces, such as electric light and bells, bar-room,
ladies' parlor, sample accommodations for commercial tnivelers, etc. As regards the fare we may say
at once that a ll are agreed that there is no .better
two -clollar-a-clay house anywhere, and manyh1gherpricecl hotels clo not set a better table. The hot~!
caters for the patronage of commercial men, theatrical campanies, and the traveling public generally.
.
S pecial rates arc offered theatrical guests, conventions, a 1~d o the1· large assembl ies. The proprietor also caters for largt; banquets, e i ~ hc 1 · !or h ome p a r ties o r from a distance, and he has had particular

This beautiful metropolis of South
West Virginia is a charming and pros~erous city of 2s,ooo inhabitants, located
m the gate-way bet ween the Roanoke and
Shenandoah vallevs, two of the most
beautiful and fertiie vales to be found on
the continent. The city is situated on
t?e banks of the picturesque and romantic Roanoke river which winds around
a~d through the s~uthern portion of the
city, affording some very charming river
scenery, as well as excellent drainage
and water power. She is surrounded on
all sides by a country rich in natural re·
so~rces. The valley land immediately
adiacent the city is covered with rich,
well kept farms, succulent pastures and
handsome orchards. The lime-stone soil
here producing an abundance of nutritious blue g rass is mainly accountable
for the great number of thorough-bred
~orses that constantly spin on the delightful boulevards that radiate in different directions from the city. To the same
source may be attributed the numerous
herds of Shorthorn and Jersey cattle that
contribute an air of thrift and comfort to
the suburban cou)11ry places. Beyond
the valley, just f:-fr enough to show to
good advantage ~·n an irregular circle,
stand the ranges . the Blue Ridge a~d
Alleghany mount. ios. Across the billowy stretch of gr en, these blue lines of
mountain peaks !Jresent to the eye one
of the most charming and magnificent
scenes ever presented to the human
vision. On and
around these
mount a i n s are

grown the celebrated Albemarle and
Dack Creek pippins, apples which have
acquired an international reputation and
which frequent ly sell at a lmost fabulous
prices by reason of their superior quali ties.
Under the surface of these mountains
lie valuable minerals and coal of the
highest quality. They afford also an
abundance of good timber.
Roanoke controls the trade of a vast
te rritory, a considerable portion of which
is yet undeveloped, but which holds out
splendid promises for the future. She is
noted beyond all southern cities for the
hustling, aggressive character of her business men. One of the first impressions a
person gets after alighting from the train
while jostling through the crowd a lways
surging around the Norfolk &amp; Western
depot, and his eye catches a glimpse of
Jefferson street, with its handsome brick
blocks and ceaseless rush of vehicles and
cars, is the consciousness of having entered upon a scene of unusual industrial
activity, and he is justly" surprised at the
busy animation everywhere around him
telling of prosperity and enterprise.
Scarcely less astonishing to him ate her
fine public buildings, magnificent hotels,
and the numerous metropolitan feat ures
which bespeak comfort and convenience.
As he gradually takes in the out-stretching landscapes of almost infinite variety,
the view from every point presenting
distinct features, he becomes aware of
the fact that he is in the midst of a land
of beautr, and delight. llut should he
enter the delightful villa home of one of
her citizens, he will then realize one 0£
the principle charms of Roanoke, the

"old dominion" hospitality. There is
something so cordia l and delightful about
Virginia hospitality, that language loses
its meaning in an attempt to describe it.
The warm clasp of th e hand, the soft
sympathetic voice, the dcl icate and
cordial interest manifested in the
strange r, all coming with such easy
grace, makes one feel at once that he is
in the land of friends.
This captivati ng politeness and easy
natu ral sociability is a characteristic of
this region, and can be found nowhere
else in the Union in such royal profusion
as in the i\Iagic City. There is certainly
no city of its size in the south containing
so many beautiful residences. Within
the limits of R oanok e can be found
almost every variety of location. There
are hills of conside rabl e alt itude, affording magnificen t vie \~S in all directions;
there are other portions of the city entirely level. Some of her homes are
almost palatial, and m!'st of them are
models of comfort and good taste. They
are usually set back from the street in
the midst of ample grounds, being artisti cally shaded and beautified by shrubs
an d flowers. The water supply of
Roanoke is unsurpassed by any ci ty in
th e world ; it is supplied from a sp ri ng
th a t gushes out from th e base of Mill
~1ountain, as clear as crystal and almost
ice cold; thousands of barrels of t his
water being bott led and shipped to
north.ern cities annually. The climate
here is well nigh perfect. The skies are
a~ b~ue and clear as those of Italy. The
ai r is salubrious and comes fresh from
the mountains, fragrant with the aroma
of mountain
· verdure and charged with
health gi vin g ozone. The ni ghts a re
usually cool and bracing, even in the
hottest weather.
Ro~noke is located in th e heart of
\~hat.•~ known as the Springs Region of
\ irg1111a,
several of the most f amous
.
of winch are but a few miles distant,
and can be reached by a drive of an

hour or more.
Around the s c
n::sorts, m a n y
of which have
been famous for
more than a century, cluster romantic memories and historic
interests which
it would require
volumes to descri be prope rl y.
To the east of
the city but a

stand the famous pea k s of
Otter. T o the
northwest, about
seven miles dis/Vest.
tant, towers l\fcA fee's Knob
bald and g rand, one of the highest moun~
tain peaks in th e state. To the north
about the same distance, in the peaceful
seclusion of a pretty mountain cove lies
Hollins Institute. There are bea~tiful
d rives leading to these and a score of
other in te resting suburbs. T he firm,
smoo.th, m~ cadami;:ed roads are fringed
on etther side by extensive orchards and
rural homes of cxce11tional beauty. As
a convention city, Roanoke possesses
the rare advantages&lt;.£ easy accessibility,
s umptuous hotels, un1ivaled facilities for
recreati on, and surro1111dings that appeal
a t once to the visitor. The city is well
supplied with social and benevolent institutions, all of which are carefully and
ably conducted. Her churches are numerous and im?osing, and .the pe rcent age
of church-going. pop~lat1on is greater

able in the high moral atmosphere that
pervades the city. \ Ve present pictures
of some of the leading church edifices,
many of which are models of ch urch
architecture. The public school system
of th e city is the best in the state. i\'lany
of the school buildi ngs are in a high
degree attractive, as well as comfortably
and conveniently arranged throughout,
and the standard of scholarship demand·
ed of the teachers is high.
Roanoke is fortunate in the possession
of a good board of education, wise, con·
servative men who conduct matters pertaining to the public schools in a thoroughly business lik e manner.
Roanoke contains in th e " Academy of
Music" one of the best opera houses in
the south, and is visited by the best attra ctions in the country each season.
The whole city is uniformly well built
and presents to the eye a fresh, att racti ve appea rance. The buildings a re
mostly new and constructed on modern
lines. The markets are abundantly supplied daily with fresh fruits, vegetables,
poultry, eggs and butter direct, and fresh
from the hands of the producer. The
business man can here find that happy
combination of h ealth, p leas ure and
profit, which is the ideal condition of life;
and to those seeking a permanent home
or a mere temporary sojourn fo r rest and
recreation, where else can they find such
a splendid combination of all the good
th ings which go to make. up the sum of
human happiness as are presented to
him by this bewitching queen o[ Old
Dominion. She is in very deed th e belle
of the New South, extending with jewelb edeck ed hand, to the home-seek er and
the business man in search of wealth and
happiness, the richest gems and th e most
tern pting opportunities offered by the
lovely southland.

THE CITY GOVERN MENT. The
government of the city is intrusted

ROANOKE GAS AND WATER
COMPANY. One of the most prominent and beautiful features of the City
of Roanoke is its water supply. At the
base of ;\!ill Mountain, 1 J~ miles from
the cent er of the city, a s;&gt;ring gushes
out in immense volume and purity
which under all conditions and at ali
times is perfectly clear, cold and pure.
Its volume of 5,000,000 gallons per day
is more than double the present needs
of th e city, and the elevation of the
reservoir, 222 feet above the center of
th e city, gives a uniform and ample pressure for fire service, so that the necessi ty
for fire engines seldom arises. Speaking
of the purity of the water supply, one of
the most p rominent chemists of the
country, who had occasion to ana lize it,
reported "the samples of Crystal Spring
water have been subjected to both the

dorsed by the govern ments of Great Brttain and the United States as the. b~st
American steam coal. Its superiority
over other coal is shown by the small
quantity of ash and sulphur, and the ~ery
large percentage of volatile combusuble
matter. Jn August, 188&lt;), a general order
was issued by the Secretary o[ the Navy
to the commandants of navy yards' directing them to make use of Pocahontas coal
on all t rial t rips of cruise rs. The Cunard,
and Wh ite Sta r steamship lines use it exclusively on thei r eastern voyages, and
wi t h it have made all their speed records
of recent years. It is conceded to be the
best fuel for locomotives and stationary
engines, and is to-day being used by
large railway companies and manufacturing plants throughout the country.

THE

NORFOL K

&amp; WESTERN

~AILWAY COi\IPANY has playe1 an

important part 111 th e economical history of the two Virginias. The oldest
part of the' big tru nk li ne system was
opened for traffic in 1852. This road ran
from Norfolk to Petersburg, 81 miles
long, known as the Norfolk &amp; Petersburg
H.ailroad. The second part of th e present system is the Southside Ra ilroad
Company, chartered in 1846, but opened
fo r traffic in 1857 between Pet ersburg
and Lynchburg. I n the same year
'"" Virginia &amp; Tennessee Railroad,
chartered \n March, 1849, opened for
traffic between Lynchburg and Bristol
so th at the old main line of the N. &amp;
system has been in operation before the
war bet ween the states.
In . 1870 the Legislat ure of Vi rginia
chartered the " Atlantic, Mississippi &amp;
Ohio Railroad," which absorbed the
above named independent compan ies
and put t hem under t he managemen t of
Gen. W illiam Mahone.
Jn 1881 Phi ladelp hia capitalists bought
th e A . M. &amp; 0. R. R. and reorganized
same under the name of t be Norfolk &amp;
Western Railroad Company. To the 428
miles or orig inal holding was soon added
m iles of new roads, opening up valuable
coal and mineral fields and new trade
territories. In May, 1882, the New River
Ra ilroad Company was merged into the
N. &amp; \I\' . Co., th e New River divisio11
being opened for traffic in May 1883. In
t he same year the Cripple Creek division,
ex tending from Pula~ki south toward th e
North Carol ina stat e li ne an.ct open ing up
valuable iron ore ~roperues, was construcJ ed; also extensive im p rovements at

lakes and Chicago to Norfolk.
The headquarters of this system of
1,6oo miles of steel rails are in Roanoke,
Va., which c ity sprang up when continuati on of th e Sh enandoah Valley Road to
a point on the Norfolk &amp; ·w estern Railroad was an assured fact.
In 1897 the old company was reorgan ized in the Norfolk &amp; Western Railway
system, new bridges were built, new
double trac ks laid to handle the increased
business of the road.
The fame of the Norfolk &amp; Western
Railway system has been earned by the
p olicy of its shareholders to increase the
reve nues by building up local industries
and developing local resources. The developing of the Pocahontas, the F lat Top,
the Clinch Valley coal mines, the open·
ing of many iron ore m ines in southwest
Virginia and th e Shenandoah valley, the
attraction of northe rn and western farmers to the large Virginia estates, which
with an out lay of s ufficien t working capital, and with inte lligent management, are
rapidly r edeemed, is d ue to that policy.
The resources of th e sections traversed
by the d ifferen t lines of the N. &amp; W. Ry.
system have been widely advertised, and
apparen tly with good results. And
while, of co urse, th e railroad is benefi&lt;&lt;ed
by th is work, tbe towns and the country
in the trade territory of that corporation
are reap ing untold profit.
The N. &amp; W. Ry. Co. has been the
most important factor in making Roanok e
what she .io to-day. Their shops, wh ich
are th e largest in the south, and-eRt}'&gt;loying over 1,500 me n, are at Roanok e, and
the amount of money paid out by the m
in th e c ity each pay day, agg regates over
$150,000.

The 'ecuring of the Annual
Conference at Roanoke, Va.,
\Yag mainly through the unti.riug euergy of P. S. Miller. He
was also selected as Chairman
of the Committee on Arrangements. He believed it would
lie a good _thing for the Church
and people of ltoanoke to have
the Big Meeting come to the
city. Besides ba,ing charge of
the City Church of the Brethren, he is engaged in the sale
of farms, timber and mineral
lands and city property. Any
who desire to invest in Virginia, or know more about its
farm lands, large and srna1l
timber tracts, or the min erals,
"·ill find it adYantageous to
consult him in person or by.
letter, for information in a parti.cuhr way.

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

the mountain lands, producing blue g rass spontaneously. a rc

ore in immense qua ntities is found in the hills and mountain
slop1:s. ~ l arble. sandsto ne, barytes and brick and pottery clays
arc in abundance. In Mo ntgomery and Pulaski Counties beds
of semi-anth raciLe coal cover an extent of about 1oosquare miles.
In P ulas ki a nd \\"ythe Counties are large deposits of lead and
zinc ores. wh ic h arc being extensively worked, and in the same

exist in abunda nce. In the Counties of Tazewell, Buchanan,
Dicki nso n a nd \Vise, the great Appalachian Coal Basin covers
an a rea of mo re than r.ooo square miles. This coal, which is
se mi-bitumino us, lies in immense veins, and is unsurpassed for
coki ng, steam a nd domestic uses. It is remarkably hig-h in
fixed c.1rbon. an&lt;I low in ash and sulphur, and therefore admirably ada pted to metallurgical purposes. Hitherto the working
of this immense coal fi eld has been chiefly confined to the Flat
To p Regio n in Tazewell and adjacent counties. T he total
s hi pme nt of coal and coke from this region for the year 1890
was 2,478.886 to ns. The output is beitlg constantly and rapidly
increased. as there is a g ro wing demand for this coal and coke
t hroughout the country.
\\' riLin{! 1n the Century .1la ga:;i11e. so long ago as 1874,
Edward King s ays of So uthwest Virginia : "The wealth of this

�region is by no means developed yet. Southwest Virginia
proper, which re mained so long unexplored, after the Valley
and the Potomac shores had been carefully studied, has a grand
future. As a field for immigrants who have capital and intelligence, for the better class of large farmers, and for workers in
metal, it cannot be surpassed. It is an empire in itself, with
every resource conceivable. * * * "
President Harris on o n

sou thwest V irg ini a.

On his re&lt;;ent tour President Harrison traveled by day-light
through Southwest Virginia, fro m Lynchburg by way of Salem
to Bristol, on the Tennessee line, where he spoke as follows:
"My Fellow Citizens: I have found not only pleasure, but
instruction in riding to-day through the portion of the S tate o f
Virginia that is feeling in a very striking way the impulse of
new development. It is extremely g ra tirying to notice that
those hidden sources of wealth which were so long unobse rved
and so long unused are now being found, and that these regio ns,
once so retired, occupied by pastoral people, having diffic ult
access to the center of population, are now being rapidly trans formed into busy manufacturing and commercial centers. In
the early settlement of this country emig rants poured over the
Alleghanies and Blue Ridge like waters o ver an obstructing
ledge, seeking the fertile and attractive farm regions of the g reat
W est. They passed unobserved these marve lous hidden sto res
of wealth which are now being brought into use.
"Having filled those great basins of the West, they arc now
turning back to Virginia and West Virginia and T ennessee to
bring about the full development and production for which time

J, is ripe and whic h will

the natio n to a place amo ng the nations o f the world never

"What is to hinder us when we have secure d the markets of
our own States that we shall reach out and ente r into successfu l

what is to hincie r th is people, possessing by the pro vidence of

again have o n the great seas a merchant marine fl y ing the flag
of the co mmo n country and c arrying its comme rce into every
sea and upholding its honor in every port?
"I am glad to-day to s tand for this nioment among you and
to express my sympathy with any and every interest that t ends
to develo p yo u as a people. I am glad to stand with you on
one commo n pla tform of respect for the cons titutio n; differing

be and ho w it s ho uld be applie d ; having in vie w one common
devotion o f o be dience to the law as the majority of our people,
by their own representatives, make it.

�Ed'Ward Atkinson on South"'·est Virginia

and

i

tbe Sou th.

To the Manufacturers' Record, Baltimore, May 30th, Mr.
Edward Atkinson, of Boston, contributes two pages giving an
account or his recent visit to Southwest Virginia and other parts
of the South. A few brief extracts from his able anicle are
given here.
"Such general observations which one may make in a trip of
two weeks must of necessity be somewhat superficial. The points
on which assurance can be given even on a short trip are as
follows: First, in respect to the railways; more solid, substantial
and welJ-kept main lines cannot be found in this country anywhere than in a large pan of the tract over which we have
passed. Evenly and adequately ballasted with broken stone,
free from dust, and in some places so nearly rivaling the great
Pennsylvania Railway in their methods and s urroundings as to
have !eel us to charge some or the district superintendents with
having swept up their tracks in special anticipation of our visit:
nearly all crowderl with more traffic than can be handled on
single tracks with their present equipment . * * *
"With respect to the resources of the country, it needs only a
trip of two weeks, or even less, to prove the existence of almost
unlimited supplies of fire-clays. kaolin and glass sand, iron ore,
coal, manganese and salt, to say nothing of some of the metals
of less importance. Coal, ores and timber exist in such abu ndanceas to make the question one or the proximity and of the
relative quality of the s upplies rather than or their abundance and of their existence. The competition is no longer
to find coal in excessive abundance; it now consists in a friendly

rivalry among those who possess the coal as to which :vill make
the strongest and riches t coke. It is no longer a question o r the
existence of iro n ore in such masses as to make the number or
tons a matter o{ no prese nt consequence. The pending question
is which ore is the r-ic hest or the purest or the best in its situation for immediate ust:. '•
* "' It is no longer a question
whether or not basic steel ca n be made in the so uthern part of
the iron section, it is only a question whether the right men
have taken hold of the matte r o r not, and whether the right
method is being adopted, and or that there can be little doubt.
It has bee n who lly due to the basic process or making steel that
the product or Ge rmany has been carried from a little over
2,000,000 tons in 1878 to nearly 4,500,000 in 1889. All these points
may be proved by observations right on the line of the railways,
but what there is a [cw miles away is still almost unknown. T he
surface only has been scratched. \ Vithin a week of our arrival
at one point a vein o r antimony had been opened, apparently
yielding an abundan t s up p)y of very high grade ore. Copper
has been made in past years at several points, and there a re
claimed to be many workable deposits yet t o be explored . One
·needs only to go to :;altville, in Southwest V irg inia, to t o u ch the
ma in source or t he s upply or salt by which the w h ole Confederacy was sus tained throughout the war. * * * It may be
deemed almost oflicious for me to deal at s u ch le ngth with the
details of t he area which I have defined . My justification must
be found in the fact that in the ve ry heart o f the eastern part of
the territory o f the United States is to be found an area n early
as large as France, endowed with more varied resources a nd
with a bette r climate than almost any other similar area within
the limits or our com m o n country."

~he Roanoke and Southe:n Railroad, now building from
vVmston-Salem, North Carol~na, to ~oanoke, will a lso be extended to Salem, and thus give the city another outlet southward, by the extension of its main line or the building of a
branch road ~o Salem: A dummy railway line of standard
gauge, already 10 operation between Salem and Roanoke, affords
rapid transit between the two cities.
The Salem and Southwestern Railroad Company has been
chartered to build a road from Salem to a point on the North
Carolina or Tennessee line. When built, this road will render
the rich mineral la nds of Floyd, Carroll, and Grayson Counties
of Virginia and the famous Cranberry ores of North Carolina
easy of access, and extended by way of Asheville will give a
short route to Atlanta. An air line from Boston to New
Orleans passes through, or near, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore. Washington, Salem, Asheville, Atlanta, Montgomery,
and Mobile.
It is considered highly probable that a road will be built from
Salem to Newcastle in Craig County (which is rich in mineral
resources), a distance of only twen ty-two miles, to form a connection at that point with a b ranch of the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad. now in c~ur~e. of c~nstructi on. This road will
connect at Covington, .v1'.g.'01a. with a road now building a s
a part of the ~est V1rg101a Central System, thus forming a
direct line to Pittsburgh. .
A charter has been obtained for the Salem Electric Street
Railway, which will be extended to Roanoke on the south s ide
of the river.

�The chief offices. o( thl! following .companies are in Salem:
The Bonsack Mach10e Company, capital $1,6oo,ooo; the Carper
Spark Conductor Company, capital $1,000,000; and the Comas
Machine Company, capital $ 100,000.
The aggregate capital stock of the vario us La nd, Improvement and Development Companies of Salem is a little m ore
than $4,000,000; and this financial bac king g ives a great
impetus to the g rowth of the tow n and the establishment of
manufactories.
Salem as a Place t"or Investment.

The rapid development of S alem affo rds many excellent
opportunities for profitable investments.. The price of stocks
and real estate has greatly increased, and those who had the
discernment to invest early have a lready realized handsome
profits. As the rapid growth of the cit y will continue t o
enhance the value o{ real estate, profitabh: investme nts
may be made in la nd stocks, town lots or buildings for business
purposes.
The po p ulation of Salem has inc reased as rapidly as acco mrnodations could be secured. In the past year it has often been
impossible fnr ne\\·-comers to secure any sor t of accommodations. and tlieJarge increase in population this year will c reate
a still m1Jre urgent demand for houses. T he building a nd
renting of houses can be confidently recommended a;, a sc.fe
means of securing good returns. The profit,; would ra11gc. !n1m
ten to twenty per cent. on such investments.
By a fair estimate the industries in operation and :i,'.t 11aily
secured wi1l give employment to several tbo11s&lt;1::d han r's, ,1•1d
increase the population from . o,cioo to 15,000 in t:1c nc~ar future.

J, So

large a ~O\;t~ being ass~ red , it will be seen that. ~alem
presenlS an mv1tmg field fo r investments. P1,;rsuns des iring t o
make investme nts should bear in mind tha t the deve lopment
and growt h of Salem have been accom;:&gt;l is hed largely by local
e nterprise. A majority of the ofli.cen;, directors, a nd s wc kholders of the vario us land co mpan ies a re citizens of S a le m .
While much Northern a nd foreign capital is invested h e re , th e
deve lopment of the town is la rgely in the hands o f actual
residents, whu have their own mo ney im·estecl , ancl who natu rally
have the bes t inte rests of the city at heart. \.Vh ilc ex erti ng
themse lves t o make their own in vestme nts m ore pro fitable,
their efforts will also increase the val ue of the in vest me nts of
persons fro m a distance.
The Future of Salena.

Salem will continue t o g row. T h is is assured l.Jy all the conditions that have brought a bout its recent remarkable progress.
At the head o f its business interests a rc men o f e nergy, experience, sagacity, a nd integrity. l'vlillions of dollars are in vested in
its numerous industries and in its land. improvement, a ntl clevclo pme nt companies, and hundreds of inve::stors, No rth nnd South ,

That the Roanoke is a valley of wonderful beauty may be se&lt;e n
from the cut which appeared in 7'/te Ct:11/11ry, when Edward King
was writing "The Great South" papers for that popular monthly.
It is a regio n mu ch like th e vVyoming region in Pennsyl\-ania, the
valley being small enough to be seen atone v iew from an e leva tion,
together with the outline of the mountains that co mpletely cncircie
it. It bears a close resemblance to th e 10\·e \y valley in Western
.Ma~sachuseus. in which Williams College is situa ted. R ev. George
Muller, of Bristol En g land, who visite&lt;I Roanoke Col lege, in

If therg be a tow n in Virginia more beautifully s itua t ed than
Salem, it has not been my good fortune to behold it. The green
\'alley through w hich the Roanoke Ri\·er winds is broken just
enough to rest and please the eye, w hile the hills and mountains

spring, form a picture upon which few can look for the firs t time
with hearts unmoved. It is, in truth, a vale of peace. It is a sermon without words, an idyl or nature's own telling. It is the
simplest an d briefest statement of fact to say that its beauty is
beyond the power of words to express. Every hea rt that beats

that comparatively fewer person s coming to th ~ n ew c ity were
accom panied by their families than after 1886. Th e p ercentage of
three persons would cover the popula tion . Since 1886 the percentage of families has increased, ai:; evidenced by the largely increased number of dwellin g houses er ected . The p ercentage of

" But th e great p r omoter of Ro a noke ,"
he continued , " wa s th e N or folk a nd W estern r a ilroa d, its capital, th e capita l it drew,
a nd t h e a bl e and indomitable m en who

�fashioned its policy. That ra ilroa d company spen t about $i,OOO,OOO in shops, public
works and pui.Jlic buildings in th is city.
The Roa noke La nd and Improvement Company started, la id out and pushed the town
to its success, having spent its 01·iginal capit a l at the outstart. The water a nd gas
works h ave spent $GOO,OOO. The Crozier
Com p any h ave put 1, 500,000 in this and
a djacent counties . I cann ot and need not
en umerate other enterpri ses which h ave
contributed to its wealt h and prosperity.
All this capita l was supplemen ted and
made effective by the libera l, courageous
a nd unique policy of the railroa d company.
"Mr. Kimball's theory, that by a iding
a nd developing the country through which
the r a ilroad r a n, the prosperity of the road
would b e developed a nd made p erma n ent,
was untried and unique. This is shown by
comparison with the policy adopted by
othe r r a ilroad companies who have a lways
been unwilling to m a ke heavy expenditures
anywhere until r emuner ation was in sight.
"I confess I had misgivings as to the
daring a nd dashin g policy a dopted by the
Norfolk and Western company. Beautiful
st a tions a ll along the line, b eautiful hotels,

the encouragement of every point of interest, direct a nd indirect assistanc1:: to numberless local enterprises, the encouragement of n ew towns, mines and all kinds of
manufactures have illustrated this broad
and beneficial policy.
"The resu lt has been striking, and
while this town h as been building, the Norfolk and W estern r a ilroa d bas become one
of the great trunk lines of the country.
Stretching from Hagerstown, in Maryland,
to Bristol, 'Tennessee; from Norfolk, on the
Atlantic coast, across the two Virginias, the
Ohio river and into the h eart of Ohio, with
bra n ches like iron t entacles in ~very di r ection, it traverses and h as opened up an empire of ri ches, a nd its future g r eatn ess is
now beyond doubt and a ppreh ension."
Gen er a l Douglass th en spoke of the
rich es of Vi rginia in coal a nd wood and
ores, its untold wealth and the awakening
fai t h and energy of her n ative and adopted
citizens, and of the rising towns and the
g reat future of Norfolk.
"The past of Roanoke," said the speaker, " arouses wonder and pride. H er present is prosperous and hopeful. Her future
is full of rich promise. For Roa noke, Norfolk and a ll her to,r:~ s with their new prosII

p e rity, mu ch depends upon the State and •
legislative policy of Virginia. Virginia has
boundless wealth but little capital. This
she must h ave. H er laws should be liberal
but just. With no toleration of monopo.
lies, trusts or corporate control on the one
b a nd, there should be on the other no narrowness, no fanatical bitterness, no perse·cution nor confiscation of capital.
" \ l\lith her past history and future
hopes Virginia should be broad minded . I
love this old Commonwealth, my native
State, and her magnificent history. I watch
with pride and bounding hope her new de·
velopment . May Roanoke be t ypical of her
n ew life, and pressing forw a rd-in her course
may sh e h elp to lift up the Old Dominion
to that pre-eminence in time of peace which
in the stru ggles of a ruinous war she never
lost ."
Roa n oke is noted above all Virginia
cities for the hustling, aggressive character
of its business men and the entire harmony
with which they work where anything affecting the interests of the "Magic City" is
concerned. Some two months ago a number of gentlemen connected with the Commercial Association of Roanoke, an organization con,posed of leading merchants and

�business m en, conceived the idea of app rop riately celebrating the cornple ti0n of the
Shenandoah Valley railroad fr om H ager stown to Big Lick, which was virtu a lly the
foundation of Roanoke . Accordingly a
mass meeting of the citizens was called, and
a general committee of more than a
hundred of the most active and enterprising citizens selected to prepare for celebrating in proper style the tenth a nniver sary of
the city. Mr. J as. Simmons, a prominent
i·eal estate agent, was el ected chairman of
the committee, and Col. J. H . Dunstan, the
first ma vor of the Magic City, was chosen
secretary. Sub-committees we re appointed
at a meeting of the .executive committee a
few nights after its selection to take charge
of the details of the undertaking, and since
then they have been working night and
day to make the decennial celebration a
grand success. The splendid opening tonight and the attractive program for tomorrow attest the thoroughness of the
work c.f the gentlemen having the celebration in charge .

They a r e eonfident
that in ten years the c ity will h ave a

that Baltimore cannot affo rd to have s uch a
trade, naturally tributary to it, diverted to
Phil adelphia a nd New York, particularly
as the extension could be made at a comparatively incon siderable outl ay when the

g reat value of the stakes is considered.
The annual amount now paid the wage
earner s in Roanoke is not less than $4,000,000. The capi tal invested in ma nufactu ring
enterprises is $8,125,000, and in la nd companies about $11 ,000,000. Roano k e has eig ht

$400,000 and $200,000 additional is now
being put in n ew church es. The public
schools now have over 1,500 pupils, and

From the Baltimore News.

Wonderful has been the growth of Roanoke. Ten years ago it had a population of
hardly 600, and to-clay it has one of more
than 25,000. Nowhere else than in America
would an increase like this be possible. A
showing so marvelous is clue partly to the
happy circumstances of situation. Then as
the population formed, it was made up of
p eople of energy, enterpri se and foresight,
pro ud of the ir town and determined that it
should excel. And so with every passing
year Roanoke has gained in numbers and
importance until it celebrates its decenniaJ as one of the most striving and pro gressive cities in this country, with a future
whose g reatness few would undertake to

�r
measure. T here is, indeed, no stop ping or
halt in the course of a p lace like Roanoke.
Onward is the motto of her citizens, and in
ten years more she will proudly be able to
boast of quite a metropolitan importance.
Roanoke is closely connected by the ties of
friendship and b u siness with Baltimore,
and from nowhere will congratulations come
to her more hearty and sincere than those
wafted from the Monumental City.

From the Journal of Finance.

Your correspondent here bas referred
several times recently to the app roach of
"Roanoke's Decennia l Celebration," and I
write now to announce the complete success
of the enterprise.
Many thousands of v isitors gathered in
our city to witness the great est combination
street parade that Virginia ever saw. Military, civic, trade and industrial marked
the features of this day's business, and t he
procession comprising this variety of outdoor entertainment was a distinguished
success.
The trades display was an actu al demonstration of results, and many creditable
floats re presented the industrial develop -

ments in manufacture, wholesale and r etail
mercantile establishments, statistical information relating to the banking, real estate
-and kindred interests.
The Roanoke Machine W orka was represented in the display by over a thousand
men in uniforms of brown linen a nd blouse,
and this was the most impressive feature of
the day, as it represented just so m a n y
bread winners and marks a solved-problem,
the duplication of which goes on forever in
our community, thus explaining why_ Roanoke has over 25, 000 population to-day,
w h er eas ten years ago she could boast of
only 400.
The building of a city comprises three
essential features- population, employm ent
and good government- a nd this demonstration makes it clear to the most casual observer that Roanoke can claim beyond question all of these r equisites. The p a rade occupied part of the for enoon and a fternoon,
and later in the day the electric cars a nd
vehicles of all d e!!cript ions w er e t axed to
thei r utmost in cou veying the throng to
the scene of a proposed sham b a ttle.
Many of the spectators h a d p a rticipated in actual war, and as the a rtillery
roared a nd the musketry ra ttled, r egiments
16

charged and retrea t ed, stormed p arapets
and deployed at double-quick into line of
battle, received or gave r epulse a nd finally
the victory won, we a ll retired from the
field with the consciousness that this g reat
event bad been fittingly t erminated, for
life is a great battle.

VIRGINIA'S "MAGIC CITY."-Roanoke has
long b een known a s the "Magic City " of
Virginia, and ce rta inly n o city in the South
b etter deserves this title. In t en y ears it
h as grown from a straggling village of 400
people, to a big busy city of 25 ,000 inhabit a nts, with good streets, gas and electric
lig hts, horse, electric and steam r a ilways,
fine office buildings, banks a nd hotels, and
industrial interests of sufficient importan ce
to support a ll this population and ensure
the perm anence of the city.

iron ore a nd limestone in the immediate
vicinity of the city h ave been th e foundation of a great indu stry, and the fact that
. the city is a railroa d center has added
la rgely to its importa n ce and prosperity.
But there a re many other localities in the

has ever enjoyed, yet they h ave not attained a tithe of the a ctivit.y and growth of
Roanoke. Why? It is merely a question of
management.
The city of Roa.noke wa s put upon its
feet and set agoing by men who mea nt business-men who formed definite pla ns before
they began and the n systematically executed them. The object of these builders of
R oanoke has n e ver been to sell a wb·o le
county in town lots nor to plant new indu stries where there was neither n ecessity nor
opportunity for them. The one obj ect in
v iew from the start h as been the establish m ent of a city by n atural mea ns, and this,
.after a ll, is the only m a nner in which permanency a nd prosperity can b e assured.

Of course the influence of the Norfolk &amp;

of recent times. Going on up the valley,
one is struck with the vastness of the conceptions of those who have started cities.
At Shenandoah, Elkton, Sh endun, Basic
City, Buena Vista and Glasgow, vast tracts
of land have been laid off into str eets and
aveues, and lots sold. Hotels of large
proportions, of handsome architecture and
all modern improvements, a re to be seen at
every place. Buildings for manufactories,
large and substantial, are monuments of
the energy, enthusiasm a nd confidence of
their builders. Large business blocks in
the most modern style of architecture , stand
scattered about upon what were to be corn er
lots in busy cities. Uncompleted foundations for manufactories aI.td business h ou ses,
and naked frames for residences show the
suddenness of the collapse of the booms.
It is safe, we think, to say tliat not less than
ten millions of dollars have been spent on

these n ew towns between Luray and Roa noke, two-thirds of which now seem lost .

opened with a g rand concert by 200 voices

twenty-eig ht pieces. The concert was giveu
in the tab ernacle built for the accommoda tion of Sam Jones, the r evivali st, which
seats 5,000 persons. The t abernacle was
packed, and the concert was a grand su ccess. The musical program was divided
into two parts. Between the first and second, Mr. Jam es S. Simmons, m ast er of ceremonies, m ade an add ress of w elcome, Col.
John E. P enn gave a historica l sketch of
Roanoke, and Col. H . K yd Douglass, of
Hage rstown, d eliver ed a n oration.
Saturday morning there was a milita ry
and indu t.rial parade, about fiv e thousand

people being in line. The military included
three regiments, the Vrgivia Military Institute batallion, and four or five independent
artillery and infantry companies. The floats
of the bu sin ess establishments were handsome, .suggestive of energy and enterprise,
and gave a fair repersentation of the variety
and magnitude of the business enterprise
of the city.
La te in the afternoon a sham b a tt.le was
fought in the southwestern part of the city,
and was witnessed by m a ny thousands of
p ersons. The spot selected was admirably
adapted for the battle. There was a level
bottom of aho ut one hundred acres. On
one side was a hill and on the oth er Mill
mounta in . At the foot of the m ountai n
flow ed the Roanoke river , and n ear it the
track s of the Roanoke &amp; Southern railroad.
Batteries we re statione d on the hill a nd the
mountain side, a nd the infant r y particip ating were divided into t hree divisions,
one at each of the two bridges spannin g t h e
river, and one b ack at t h e base of th e hill.
The battle was brought on by t h e L yn chburg zouaves deployed as skirmish ers.
Then the a rtille ry belched forth, the repor ts
r everber ating among the hills a nd valleys.
Th e infa ntry then b ecam e en gaged , a nd

the rattle of musketry and the booming of
the cannon gave a very realistic representation of war. The scene was an exciting one.
The smoke became thick, and through it
could be seen the retreats and advances of
the contending forces . The bridges were
taken and retaken, a nd the usual varying
tide of b a ttle w as illustrated. Durin o- temporary lu1ls brass bands could be beard
a nd th e bugle sound airecting the move~

The celebration was happily conceived,
well planned and admirably caTried out,

roads people came in carriages and wagons,
on horseback a nd afoot, until b y 9 o'clock
it was estimated that th ere were at least
15,000 visitors in the city. This a dded to the
e nthusiastic population of 25,000 in Roa noke, which a lm0st in a body flocked to the
streets, produced a scene of a nimation on
the principal str eet s which would have comp a red favorably with B a ltimore, Ch a rles
and Lexi ngton street s during the bu siest
hours of the day.
The great feature of the day was the
parade and trades display. About 5,000 m en
in uniform were in line including a number
of milita ry companies, 1,000 men from the
Roanoke Machine Works a.nd la rge companies from other industrial est ablishments,
wit.h a dozen bands of music.
As soon as the soldiers had lunched
preparations were b egun for thP. sh a m

The old town of Big Lick, now Roa noke,
Va., struck its biggest lick last Saturday.
That w as the day ten years ago when
·. the Shenandoah Valley r a ilroad linked st eel

with the Norfolk &amp; ·western system at t h at
pl ace.
Th at was th e day, t oo, when the first
passenger train over the former line r eached
Roanoke.
The observance of the occasion b egan

and sh apely cottage.
At nig ht Sam Jones' tabernacle-an
indoor campm eeting g round of over 5,000
seats-was filled by a brillia nt asse mblage,
including a tra ined chorus of 200 voices.
The musical equipment beside comprised
two bands, piano and anvil accompaniment.
The choruses were the sonorous outpourin gs of m elody.
The Journal enjoyed the honor of g uesthood of the executive committee and sat a
few feet from the r eal hero of the occasion,
F . J. Kimb a ll, of Philadelphia, P a ., president of t h e Norfolk and W estern r a ilroad
company.
Saturday opened w a rm and sultry, but
at an early hour the country people began
coming in. By 9 o'clock, the hour at which

.

the g r eat combination military and tra des'
procession was to star t, e verybody was
there.
At last the line, over three miles long,
began to move. First came 185 Lexington
cadets, clean, white and new young fellows,
marching with the utmost rythmic precision . Then came other soldiers, abou t two
strong reg iments in a ll, and these were
s upplem ented by tbe-1,100 employes of the
Roanoke Machine Works uniformed and
drilled for this occasion.
Ind u e time the trades' display followed.
The samples of Roanoke manufactm·e
shown w ere equal to those of the best in
veter a n seats of mechanical handiwork.
Their number and diversity are too great
for mention here.
For the most part the line moved too
r ap idl y. It was exactly an_;hour passing a
given point.
At 6 o'clock p. m . the sham~battle came
off. Apparently there were about 2,000 men
and 8 pieces of artiller y engaged. The
scene was quite realistic. As usual, the
"accursed invader" was driven back and
the "Battle of Roanoke" was over.

Roanoke, spinging from the little h a mlet, presents the "Magic City" as the first
representative of new life.
Roanoke is entitled to the full measure
of her great accomplishmentf:I, and is gliding
in full sail upon tbe current that leads to
the highest worth and to that large and diversified prosperity which makes her the
exemplar in her people and in her enterprises of all who would aspire to achieve
the same r es ults. Buena Vista extends h er
sincere and warmest congratulations to the
"Mag ic City" of the State.

the tenth anniversary of her existence on
last Friday and Saturday. The parade and
disp lay were in full keeping wHh that city's
enterprise and progress. The most striking
feature of the affair was the trade display,
which showed hn wealt.h and the great secret of her success. It was estimated that
there were 15,000 visitors present. Everything went off smoothly and in order, and
our former citizen, Captain Henri Davin, is
given great credit for his share in. arranging and conducting t.he procession and making the occasion a success. There is no q uestion but that Roanoke is a prodigy of
growth , and this celebration fully proves
it, and her people richly deserve the encomiums that have heen showered upon the
city for this sp lendid exhibition.

From the Lynchburg News.

ROANOKE, VA., June 19.-The second day
of the decennial celebration began this
morning at 9 o'clock with a chime of the
city bells; then the parade was formed with
the head of the column resting on South
Jefferson street. At 11 o'clock it moved forward along the line marked out for its progress. The m e rchants and manufacturers

----= - - ----- - - - -

had over seventy five floats, and other avocations were well represented, more than
two thousand soldiers, four artillery companies, nine full brass bands, four drum
corps, six or eight secret orders, fire department and many other attractive features
composing the grand parade, which was
two miles long and required an hour and
fifteen minutes to pass. The evening progra;n was equally interesting.

From the Bristol News.

After having enjoyed the hospitalities
of the fail- city of R!Janoke-the "Magic
City'' of the South-for two or three days,
it is hardly to be expecte d that an e ditor
can find words to express his admiration of
the manner in which the people entertain,
as well as the grand scale on which the decennial celebration was conducted. To say
it was a great success is putting it in a very
tame way. It probably surpassed anything
of the kind ever held in the State. The
rapidity with which Roanoke has risen
from a w a yside station, ten years ago, to a
city of 25,000 inhabitants, with her furnaces,
great workshops and industrial plants is
truly marvelous. It is almost impossible to
27

-- --~----

make the stranger believe that all this bas
been accomplishe d within such a short
period. It but demonstrates what can be
accomplished by united effort and concert
of action.
Last Sat-urday was the grandest and
most glorious day in the history of the
"Magic City, " and well may her citizens
fe~l proud of the manner in which ev erythmg passed off. The city was beautifully
decorated throu g hout. The day was ush. ered in with the boom of cannon, the chiming of bells and the soul stirring strains
from numerous bands. The soldiery in their
bright and attractive uniforms, the gleam
of musketry, flashing swords and roll of
drums• gave a military aspect to the 0o-ala
occas10n . Fully 20,000 visitors w e re in the
city, and with all the j a m and bustle of t h e
great mass of people p erfect ord er r e igne d.
The parade was g ra nd beyond d escription.
It was led by over 1,600 military, followed
by the trades' display, making a line five
miles in length. The fl.oats were gotten up
in attractive styles, without r ega rd t o exp e nse, it seemed. A feature tha t a ttracted
everybody was the display of the R oanoke
Mac hine Works: 1, 100 of the 1,500 emp loyes
were in line, uniformed , a nd le d by the

�Machine Works band, the finest in the
State.
The Poca hontas Coal Company exhibited on a float the largest solid lump of
bituminous coal ever mined in America. It
was a perfect cube, and weighed 8,700
pounds. On the top was a living representation of Pocahontas, and stationed around
the body were severa l miners, in their every
day costumes, with lamps a.nd tools. Column after column could be writte11 on what

m a ny other things that are worthy of special mention, but we must desist. All praise
to t he " Magic City" and her progressive
citizens. Bristol may well take pattern after
t he way they do things, especially the manner in which they pull together .
It t akes a big pay-roll to make a big
town ; and that' s what's thb matter with
Roanoke. When one pla nt can put 1,100
men in a parade the co nvi ction is engraven
on the mind of the spectators that that
town is going t o get t h ere .

From the Henry County Bulletin.

When we go tn press the echoes from
the decennial celebration of the " Magic
City " will have rolled so far that our words
of praise will swell but f a intly the triumpha nt song with which her many-throated
industrial enterprises granted those who,
on the occasion, went to gaze upon her allenthusiastic face and bid her godspeed.
That the celebration itself was a dedded
succeos is a thing of comparatively small
moment. which executive committees, brass
bands, quick-witted a dvertisers, cheap r~il­
roa d fare an d military pomp and pride
might h ave accom pli sh e d for m a ny a less
pretentious town; but that the city stood
in that smiling valley, touched to busy life
in a single decade by the genius of la bor,
was a fact that r eceived more admiratio n
than the a rtful desigD of a dvertising floats;
mor~nthusiasm than the fl.ash and roar of
battle, and more in spiring a nd intoxicatin g
thought than the bea uty of fair women or
the strains of soulful music.
Th at this noble young city of the Old
D ominion may go on t o n ew and g ra nde r
industrial v ictories, is the sincere wish of
every patriotic V irginia n-and the h earty
way in w hich the people of sister towns and
28

cities crowded into her gates to extend a
congratulatory band, shows that no riva lries, real or imaginary, stinted the g rip of
honor, to whom honor is so richly due.

From the Bedford Index .

The greatest event of the kind that has
ever occurred in the State took place in
Roanoke Saturday, b e ing th e celebration of
the city's t e nth birthday.
· Initiatory work with minor a ttractions,
su ch as r acing, baseb a ll, etc., took place
Friday. Friday ni ght the.grand d ecennial
concert took place in the Jones' tabernacle,
5,000 people being present; a chorus of 250
voices, an orchestra of 16 pieces, the Roa noke Machine Works b a nd of 30 pieces, the
J. 0. M . band of 18 pieces, besides soloist s
of high r a nk, all of which was home talent.
To say that the concert was a success would
not b e doing it justice. It was grand, and
shows what Ro a noke can do in the musical
line.

SALEM, ROANOKE COUNTY, vmoJNIA.

1st t o October 31st, are sold to Salem
fro m leading points North and South.
Additional railroad facilities may
be afforded at an early clay. The
Baltimore and Ohio, with the Valley
railroad, extends to Lexington. 52
miles Northeast of Salem. More
than half of t he construction on this
gap has been completed. At its late
session (1883- '84), the General As. .
sembly of Virginia granted a charter,
with liberal· franch ises. to t8e Salem
and Southwestern Railroad Company.
T his new Company will probably
unite with a similar OQe in Nor th
Carolina authorized to build a road
from Asheville northeast to t ile Virginia line and Southwest to t he
Georgia line. Tile Baltimore and
Atlanta T runk Line will probably be
one of the great roads of tile fu ture.
Tllis road would run througll a region
rich in miueral resources. forest pro
ducts, and natural attractions. To
Sulem it would give the great advan.
ttige of compet.iog railroad rates.
Numerous advantages are herein
claimed for Salem and tile R oanoke
Valley, as points for the location of
maoufocturing establishments of va.
rious kinds. These resources anct
opportunities have been left so long
unimproved for want of capital as
well as a lack of knowledge and skill
in such industries, on tbe part of the
people of this sectio n. The citizens
of Salem, therefore, invite the attcn.
tion ol' men of the necessary means
nntl experience to the advan1.uges of
ol t!Jeir town and vicinity. The lib.
erul otfcrs, printed at. the beginnin"'
of tbis circulur, manifest a. gcnerou~

public spirit. and give nssurnnce tlrnt
investers will be treaterl in n fai r nnd
liberal manner.
The Committee: refer wit h g reat
satisfaction to another class of ,ad·
vantages to be conside red by t hose
who plant their capital in a new lo·
cal.ion and take their families to a
new home. General attention is bore
paid to education. Roanoke College,
well known throughout tbe connt r.v
as a liberal and progressive instit n·
tion of high g rade, d raws its pa tron·
age from many States, T he l~ublic
G rnded school of Salem has for years
maintained a high rank for efficiency.
T here are also good private schools.
Eig ht miles fro m Salem is H ollins
Institute, one of t he leading fe male
colleges of the Southern States. F ive
denominations, wit h able pastors.
bolrl regular relig ious services a nd
ma intain Suuday schools in the town.
It would be difficu lt to find a place
where people so generally attend
church, where the religious senti ment
is stronger, or the public moral sense
higher. T be respect for la w and
order is so genera l that t he T own
Sergeant, 1.he o nly police officer for a
population or 2000. fin ds but little to
do. The people of Sale m are broad
and liberal in their views and ready
to welcome visitors a nd settlers from
any and nil parts of our country.
T hose wbo come cony fee l assured of
a corrlial and hospitable welcome.
Further informal.ion will be given
and copies of this circular ~rniled free

�SALEM,

ROA~OKF.

1. I will give a site for a furnace ~r
factory on my Bclle\·ue farm, on Roanoke
river,one-half of a mile from Salem, to any
party who will erect and operate thereon
a. fllrnace or factory in which they shall
invest at least 820,000. 'l'his site is oncfourth of a mile from the railroad, less
th&gt;ln one-half of a mile from the depot,and

-one of the most delightful spots

Salem was laid out in 1802, and
was then in Botetourt county. It is
now Roanoke county, made by taking
a part of' Botetourt and l\lontgomery.
Salem sl.Joul&lt;l have .been the terni1:1ms
of the Shenandoah ValleY. rnilroacl,
as its natural advantages are superior
to her sister town. The country
around Salem abounds in magnificent
farming lands, whilst the hills and
mountains are filled with manganese
ore, zinc and other minerals, only
awaiting capital to develop. Her
beautiful situation, her superior ad·
vantages, her pure wat.er, the farm·
ing country, the immense beds of rich
ore that exist at no great dibtancc,
should insure a wonderful growth in
the future. It only remains for her
people to recognize ber adrnntagcs.
and hy making the facts known, at·
tract the attention of tl.Je millions of
capital ti.mt is now seeking invest·

Salem is growing, but not like ber

Millions of Nortl.Jern capital flowed
in there, whilst here in Salem that is
yet to come. Bl.t her citizens are

the business part, lligher. The principal business is on l\Iain street- a
Macadamized road. As a residence
Salem is a very attracth·e place, and
many gentlemen with tl1eir families
from all parts of the Nor th and South
-ha,·e selected it as a borne, as th(}
surroundings generally are so pleasing. The town is built on a series.
of knobs, and is one of the best
drained in Virginia. Three streams
or branches run throngh it. and this
gives good drainage the entire
year.
Society is refined and el egant, and
the kve of law and order is a characteristic trait. The people are social and extend genuine Virginia hospitality to all new comers . .Gian t&lt;&gt;

WATER·l'OWER.

One of the most remark:ible advnnt:iges that Salem has is in be1·
valuable waterpower in the Roanoke
river. The altit11&lt;1e or ::&gt;alem is perhaps 150 feet. higher t.h:rn Roanoke;
the river mus through ooth places.
Here it becomes rnpicl from its
great fall. Something nbo,·e three
miles from the town a dcc.:line ab·
ruptly commences nncl gr::i.clually
grows more f'orcible until it pusses
out of sig ht at the point where the
railroad crosses it east. of the town.
All along the river are most com·
plete sites for mills. and factories
with ample w:itcr·powt'r to run the
heaviest nrnchinery. At present
tberP are b11t two flouring mi lb and a

to run many a mill or fac tory. It

remarks on the climate :
"The elevation of tbe vn ll ey in
which Salem lies, though it secures
perfect imrnunit_y from all forms of
malarial disease, and gives a bracing
summer climate, does not t!lake its
winters as sever e as either the e levation or latitu&lt;le would inclicate. The
bigll wall of the Alleghany mountains, which makes tile northern rim
of the basiri, acts as n screeu from
the north a nd northerly win&lt;'ls. I u
addition to the absence of malaria,
the clim~Lte is characterized by a
good deg ree o f cl ry ne"S a nd freedom
from e xtremes of he :1t ancl cold, g iving, of course. relief in all t.hose &lt;liseases which are :lggrnvatecl by humidity and rnpid nnrl extre me _cl.lunges

winters, as a I r ea~l y said, are excep·

most e xcellent, anrl are s uceptible of
a hig h state of cultivation by expe·

To give an illustrr.tion of what
c:in be done on these lands we will
cite the c:ise of Mr. Duval, of the hotel. He has a garden spot of not

WATER SUPPLY.

The water supplied to the town is
.considered the finest known for
domestic purposes; having but little
1imesone, it is a soft. water. As a
&lt;'!rink it is simply nee\ar. It is secur·
ed from a spring a short distance
!from Main street. This spring bas
~ ftowing capacity of 400 gallons per
minute, which is 24,000 gallons an
llour, and in twenty.four hours
1lmounts to 576.000 gnllons. In case
or failure of spring, the arrangements
are such that the water of the river
can be drawn from, affording ample
supply nt all times. By its own
gravity it liows to a force.pump, locnt·
ed on the bank of the river, and which
pump is operated by river water power
of thirteen feet in a submerge&lt;i wheel,
from whence it is pumped back to a
r eser voir on a hill that is higher than
all the otuers. except Cemetery Hill,
and thence by some four miles of
pipes is carried throu~h all the steets
of the town, nffordin:r running wnter
in nll the houses that wisu. Tbe
works are ownecl by the corporation.
The cost so far hns been about $ 11,·
()00. Tile. people of 8nlem are na·
turnlly proud of their water supply,
and should be.
TAXES, DEllTS E'l'C.

Taxes are very low, being only
eighty cents on the hnndrcd for both
•town and S~atc. Tho 1\mount of per·
sonal property taxable is $135.500 ;
t"eal estate, $396,500 ;-:\ totnl of
$5'22,000. The town has no tloating
debt whatever, hut h:i.s a bonded
debt of some $13,500. $10,000 of
which was incurred in the building
of the wnter works and $3.500 in

11

public street improvemtnts. The
former at eight per cent. and the lat·
ter at six. An offer was made some
time ago to take up at par tue water
bonds, known as ten.twenties, but
tbe holders refused, deciding to hold
such as a good investment. A few
were surrendered, but that was all.
T bey now command a premium of
ten per cent.
Tbis fact speaks well for her finan·
cial standing abroad, as these bc;mcls
are mostly held by citizens ot Rich·
mond and Baltimore. The $3,500 is
held by the bank here. Snlem bns

are discussed with an enthusiasm that
speaks well for the training that the
college afforrls. The library is in
gothic style and is a gem. It con·
tains 16,000 volumes, and in the collection are books from 200 to 400
years old, with an arrangement so
perfect t.hat a catalogue is hardly
necessary. The mineral and geological specimens are the finest we have
seen in years, but they need a build·
ing for the proper exhibition of these.
As it is, they are cramped for room,
and the 12,000 specimens do not begin to show as tbey would if the col·
lege barl room devoted specially to
such. Specimens are h&lt;'re from our
own and foriegn countries. The
numismatic collection is also large.
The philosophical and chemical ap·
paratus is fine. With another bull&lt;l·
in&lt;Y erected capable of containing
th: above specimens, and also one
for a gymnasium which coulrl be used
for lecture and commencement purposes, the advantages of Roanoke

do double work and receive but a
scant support. They combine age,
experience and tbe enthusiasm or

most remarkable young man. He is
a native of South Carolina; graduated in 1871 and 1878 finds himself

maintaining its reputation without
a penny of endowment or State aid.
The statistics of work done by tbe
graduates of Roanoke and the posi·
tion attained by the college, alone
and unaided, bas been most com·
mendahle. She needs an endowment
so that the panting. eager youth of
the South in pursuit of knowledge

so endow it that be will become a

college in 11 way to do much good.Liberal rich men and women of ·the

Salem, the site of Roanoke College,

stands in one of the richest agricul·
tural regions in the U uited States.
Throughout the adjacent sections the
far mers are very well to do, many
owning from twelve to thirteen h,undred acres of land, worth $80 to $90
per acre. Tobacco and the cereals
are grown there in large quantities.
Salem and Big Lick [now Roanoke

quantities of cereals. 8alem stands

their bearing shipment with a profit to
distant parts of Pennsyl vania, and by
the character of the iron made from
them at the Crozer Works at Roanoke

persistent in their formations, and as
these edend around and about Salem
we would have a right to expect them.
Developments at a large number of
points show these conclusions to be
well founded, both as to the quality
and the apparently inexhaustible riuantities of the ores. At one point in
particular rather more than usual developments and examinations have
been made. This point is on Poor
Mountain, an outlier of th e Blue
Ridge, and is about six miies from
Salem. Mag netic and brown hematite
ores are here found far above water
level, contiguous to limestone, and but
one mile from the line of the N. &amp; W.

seem surllcient to warrant the erec~ion
of works for their reduction at or near
Salem.
The Catawba Mountain, though as
yet less developed, will be found rich
in minerals. Here are found the hematit.es in several varieties. In one,
fossil shells are still lime, and almost
abundant enough to flux the ore. A

[The following article, from the pen'
of Dr. Chas. B . Griffin, will give an intelligent view of thi11subject. Dr. Griffin
has for many years been a lover of this
most pleasant and profit.able branch of
industry, and knows whereof he
speaks.]
It is said that God gave our father
in E den trees pleasant to the sight and
good for food, and that Solomon had
orchards and gardens ; yet, after the
lapse of more than 200 years, the cultivation of fruits in this country is but
beginning to assume proportions commensurate with its vast importance. ,
The rich and royal man, it is said by
Emerson, is he who knows what sweets
and virtues are in the g round, and
how to come at them. Of the great
Southwest Virginia it baa been said
that "the eye of a tiiaveller in a day's
ride may see the elements of an empire." In developing these vast resources, in the occupation of unimproved lands, enhancing their value
and multiplying the comfor ts and luxur ies of life, fruit culture cannot be too
highly appreciated. As a n· article of
fo.od, fruit.a, especially apples, have
proven to be of the highest value, not
only for the aliment afforded, but by.
adding to the list ~f comforts and luxuries. In fevers and diseases of the
mucous membranes dnring warm
weather, and for good health at any
season, their value is inestimable. For

all I can testify to is my own experience; and it affords me pleasure
to siy that greater hospitality, heartier
cordiality and truer kindness could not
be shown to any one than I have met

with whom I have cast my lot. As to
political privileges, I expect to find
them as untrammeled here and as free

[Editorial "Notes on Viri:;.inia," Bart ford Conrnnt,
July lltb nou 13tb, 1883.)

After writing at some length of the
agricultural ·importance of Virginia.,
the fertiiity of the Shenandoah Valley,
the beant.iful scenery of the route, and
the comfort of t.he journey, Mr. Warner speaks of the rrew manufacturing
town of Roanoke, at the junction of
the Shenandoah Valley and Norfolk &amp;
Western Railroads, seven miles east of
Salem, and then writes 'as follows :
"Salem, a pleasant, old-fashioned
villag~ of some two or three thousand
people, has more natural advantages
as to health, sightliness, fertility and
pictnresqneuess, perh~ips, than Roanoke, and equal advantages for iron
manufacture and railway operations, ·
and 1t was perhaps chance or managament tha.t prevented such a new
growth there as we saw at Roanoke.
But it has mineral wealth all about it,
and• its turn of enterprise may come
before long.

SALEM, ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA.

"The little valley basin in which
Salem lies m\lst be something like
eleven or twelve hundred feet above
tide-water. The Roanoke river winds
a.long the hills on the eastern side. It
seems to be a very salubrious place, its
water supply is from one of the remarkable fountain springs of which I
have spoken, the meadows are rich,_the
air is pure, and, sheltered by the hills,
it has a temperate climate in winter,
with little snow ; I should think it
might be warm in July and August,
but in June the atmosphere was perfect. There are for summer retreat,
however, several mineral springs and

feet. It lies near the summit of Bald
Knob, at a.n altitude of 4,000 feet, and
.
surrounded by splendid forest trees, it
is said to be exceedingly attractive
and picturesque.
"This outline is enough to show that
the region is one of great natural
beauty. Observation also leads u~ to
say that it is the . abode of a hospitable, industrious, and highly moral people. Indeed I do not know any New
England town in which the moral
standard of living is higher. In Salem
everybody has the ha.bit of going to
church, and most of the leading religious denomipations are rep_res~nted.
It is a town \Vhere the domestic virtues
thriv~ and there are no scandals."
On the return trip, Mr. Warner visited the Natural Bridge and Caverns

of Luray. Of these two natural wonders, which far surpassed bis expectations, he gives most graphic and interesting descriptions.

After speaking of the setLlement of

the history and work of Roanoke College- Dr. Ma;yo writes of Salem as
follows:

it is literally enc!ircled by a ginlle of

FROllI REV. WASHING'fON GLADDEN, LL. D.,
01&gt; SJ.'RINGFIELD, MASS. (NOW OF
COLUMDUS, ORTO) .

[.Ext met. from Letter in Sprinj?field (Mase.) Re·
pnbtlcan, Jw1c ~7. JSS-2.)

" The next stage took me down the
Richmond &amp; Alleghany road to Lynchburg, and thence to Salem, in Roanoke
county, the seat of Roanoke College.
The Blue Ridge and the Alleghanies
here draw close together, but the valley they include is, with reason, declared to be the fairest and most fertile
in all Virginia. Such magnificent
fields of wheat as are here now turning to gold would make the farmers of1
the Connecticut Valley open their eyes.
Salem is a h&amp;.ndsome town of two thou·
sand inhabitants, the neatest and most
like New Engfand of any I h,ave seen
in Virginia.. The College buildings
are well represented by lithographs,
and all that I saw and heard convinced
me that the College itself is, as a
pvominent man in Rich,mond to-day
remarked, "the place where more education can be got for less money than
in any other institution in Virginia."
The Fa.cnlty are men of good learning
and high consecration ; they stick to
their work on small salaries, some of
them refusing tempting offers to better
their condition in other places; and
they do not, like some other folks,
seem to think it a thing to boast of,
either. A large sh11-re of the students
are, from the middle class, and the
spirit of work and of reliance manifested is truly inspiring. In the baker's
~ozen of speeches by these young men
m the contest for the prize medal in

25

oratory, and on the Commencement
stage, there was a revelation of the
temper of the New South that bodes
nothing but good tO that section and
to the whole nation. W1thout exception, the speeches were brave, manly,
f9rward-looking. The fact that a new
day had come to the South was the
undertone of all this young thinking ;
arid it. was evident enough that these
hopeful fellows were ready to spring
to the front of the new movement, and
make the most of its opportunities.
National mattArs were referred to by
most of them, and not one word of
bitterness was spoken-nothing that
could have given pain to the most
stalwart Northerner. In a literary
way, the speeches were much more
rhetorical than would be heard at
Yale or Amherst, and some of them
needed not a little chastening ; but
what they lackJd in finish they made
up in manliness. On the whole, I waa
greatly pleased with the indications
given by the young men of ~his Col·
lege, representing several different
States, of the public sentiment at the
South. And here let me say, that
during a sojourn of ten days in Virginia, after scores of conversations on'
the cars, in the streets, at the hotels,
with black and .white, old and young,
male and female- with everybody that
I could get a chance to talk with- the
greater number of which conversations
were held with persons who did not
know the habitat of the person with
whom they were talking- I heard but
one speak about the North or natioI1al
matters whose words were not friendly
and g~nerous toward the people of this
section."

FROM
THE " ILLUSTRATED
CHRISTIAN
WEEKLY" (AMERICAN TRACT SOCTETY'S
PAPER), NEW YORK, APRIL 8, 1882.

" With this sketch the readers of
the Illustrated Chris'tian Weekly have
a view of Roanoke CollE:ge, and of the
upper and narrow part of the Roanoke
Val}ey. [For view, see page 2 of coveL·
of this. pamphlet. This cut appeare•l
jirst in t.h e Christian Weekly.] This
little valley, lying between the Blue
Ridge and the Alleghanies, at an average elevation of 1,100 feet above the
sea, is to Virginia, a State rich in the
beauty of its mountains and valleys,
what the historic Wyoming is to Pennsylvania. Rev. George Muller, of
Bristol, England, who visited the College in 1878 to address the students,
remarked that the scenery around
Salem strikingly reminded him o'f
Switzerland. Wholly sheltered by the
surrounding mountains, the Roanoke
Valley enjoys a climate milder t han
that of the more elevated portions of
Southwestern Virginia. It is still cold
enough to afford Roanoke students occasional sport on their skating lake on
the College grounds. The mineral
springs of this sed'tion, with the beautiful scenery and delightful climate,
attract hither thousands of summer
visitors, principally from the South."

Minerals of Roanoke County, Virginia.
It is a well known fact tl111,t the sections of country traversed by the Norfolk
&amp; Western roalroad are rich in minerals and always have been, but owing va.rins causes have never been given that attention that their great value demanded.
~s regards the richness of the iron mines of Roanoke county, situated as they
re a lmost directly on the line of the railroad, there is no question. The open~ng of the Rorer iron mine, or rather the operations of the Rorer Iron Co., and
the Dunbar Co., at Roanoke City, has demonstrated, to the satisfaction of every
one interested, thB.t the ores in this section are, beyond all cavil, equal to any
other rart of the country. Analysis by the' most distinguished chemists and
mining engineers all concur in this. These ores have been and are being shiFped to Ohio and Pennsylvania, and this issuffic~Pnt indication of the cheapne08
of p roduction, a nd Rhowa what could be done 1f furnaces were located on the
apot.
Jn the Bl ue Ridge range of mountains, running almost par rellel with the Norfolk &amp; Western railroad, west from Roanoke, there are immense deposits of ore,
rich in iron and low in phosphorus, silica, or other injurious properties, with
limestone and water immedia_tely at the plaee, and coal handy . . These properties are fully dPveloped, and are relatively as pure as those mentioned above.
One of thc-se deposits is within six miles of Roanoke and one of narrow·guage
.railroad, aud the other is jvithin a mile of the N. &amp; W. R.R., and six miles from

There are points within a few miles of Roanoke Oity where experts claim that
good pig iron can be made at nine dollars per ton, based on the calculation that
the iron ore necessary to make a ton if iron can be placed at the furnace at $3 .
'the coke at$2.75; limestone, 75 cents; labor, $ 1.50; inci&lt;lenta.ls, 50 cents, and
interest on investment, 50 cent-5 per ton. 'l'hese calculations are considered
very liberal. Say that the freight on the pig metal to Pittsburgh and other
markets is inside of $4 per ton ; this gives an actual cost of principal market.fl
of only $13, proving most conclusively that investments in such properties here
in Roanoke county are certain to return great profits. The tit.lea are also good
and ante-date King George.
Prof. J.B. Gifford, of Philadelphia, and Mr. John Fulton, of the Cambria
Iron Co. of J ohnstown, Pa., have visited these deposits,' and after an examina..
tion have pronounced them good. Perhaps there is no region where the ad van.
tages are-so numerous as at these deposits, and the owners will sell outright or
participate in any enterprise projected, or t.he capitalists can control these properties for manufacturing or shipping purposes on most liberal terms.
Prof. McCreath was commissioned by the N. &amp; W. and Shenandoah roads to
visit all points along the road, a11d secure perfect and positive knowledge of the
quality, qu~ntity, and value, so that the roads could be Msured of the exa.ct
sources of trafic. The work was well performed and satisfied the roads.
Kear these properties spoken of above, sections of from 5,000 to 10,000 acres
of undeveloped land that may prove very valu3!ble can be bought for $ 1 per
acre; the tan~hark alone is worth all that is asked for the land and is finely
adapted for grapes and other fruits. In some sections in Roanoke county the
lands are finely adapted for farming purposes and can be bought for fi fty per
cent. cheaper Lhan they have been sold for in the past. They are owned by
parties who are anxious to have the country settled up, and most liberal terms
will be given. Persons wishing to know more of these deposits and lands, will
be furnished with full particulars, maps, etc., by addr(!{!Sing t4e o~mera, Messrs.
Rorer &amp; Chapman, at Salem, Va.

C. R . BOYD'S REPORT ON PURGATORY I RON PROPERTY. ,

1J£r. F. J Cliapman, Salem, Va. :
Dear Sir.- A t your request 1I have attempted to make a minute examiil.ation
pf tlie iron and mnaganese ore belt lying on the east side of Purgatory Mountain,
in Botetourt county, Virginia., less t han ,a mile from and facing the town of
Buchanan, at the nearest point; and in t hat inspection have found the four
miles of strictly ore ground explored to be within a mile oft.he Richmond a nd
Alleghany railway, on the same side of the river ; the Shl'mandoah Valley railroad on the opposite Aide of t he river; and within a few hundred yards of the
proposed line of the Valley railway.

It was a matter of some surprise to find the rocks and ore. of V &amp; VII 1R
CYIII D) so close to the Archren, which shows on the opposite side of t he r~ver ;
but some familiarity with the rocks and fossils of the former, and the structural
peculiarities of both, left no doubt in my mind of the.t fact; and to t he presence., here, of VIII D may be ascribed the existence of such large quantities of
iron ore, with, now and then, a valuable body of manqanese ore.
P urgatory Mountain going northwardly, beyond 8ar tmell's Gap, does not
again, on the eas t side, excep t near Retreat Gap, present these ore measures ,
1:1.nd t.hen not in exactly similar condit ious 1 for that end of Purgatory Mountain is complicated with an obtrusion of Mays Mountain rocks extended southeast in such a manner as to throw a large body of Oriskany ore actually on the
east face of Purgatory Mountain, as accepted, and consequently within the
bound of your lines. Here, at our sect.ion, opposite Buchanan, t he mountain is
capped with sharply arched band of V (a) D ()VR); then going down t he east
face, upon which the long . leads of ores shown in the map are situated, t he red
sandstones are seen, in which I have several times found, not only one or two
cont inuous lines of red iron ore, but the peculiar fossil which determines the
geology (Ve (D) ) of t he rock. Then going down the mount ain slope, through
nearly four hundred yards of intervening strata, after l eaving the red rocks,
we a.re in the ore bands from which will be derived the greater quantity of
good marketable ores. This series is composed of three general bands yielding
ores. The first one-giving large quantities of red and brown shale ore and
manganiferous ore- is apparently just under the rough weathered sandstone of
the Oriskany Rocks; enclosed for miles continuously , between well defined
walls. The next is the Oriskany sandstone, just mentioned, now and then ,
giving way t o a. pure dark brown iron ore of high grade- this, in t urn, being
overlaid with a band of shale iron ore.
The notes of t he Shultz Bank read as follo ws : F ive hundred feet above the
level of James river, found Oriskany band of rock ; stri~e north 38' east, dip 65°

south 52° east. The ore body-ten feet to six feet of interlaminated shale ore
of both· kinds, overlaid with .oix feet of red shale ores ; then 2~ feet of clay ·
then 3} feet of red shale ore, next hanging walls of sandstone (evidently th~
Oriskany sandstone). An undetermined measure of about six feet of shale ore
was next discovered just overlying the sandstone. ThPn going over the outcrop northwardly and eastwardly 950 yards farther, to the Killian ore banks
found bacl~ vein of red shale ore 14 feet between wall, with some brown. oxyd
of iron and manganese ore in variable proportions, dip, &amp;c., same as last recorded·
over this plainly showing is the Orisk&lt;:1.ny roqgh.. sandstone and terlamiMted
shale ore and clay shows brown ore, next which six feet of is included in the
opening. The going throngh numerous cross cu~ and pits on the outcrop, 11
length of nearly four miles, through Hansbrough s land aud others, nearly to
Cartmelrs Gap, but .slight variations from these readingR were observ..d at a.II or
the well-opened pits; only, now and then, the dip would be about 78°, and the
strike variable, though constant.
QUANTITY.

All the conditions sugested the idea of constant. and reliable quantity aud
cheap mining. A mining breast of 12 to 18 feet width of ore, 400 feet abov
level of water in James river, four miles in length, may sa~ely be anticipatede
'.fhis body, as stated, will be bro ~n and. red shale .ores, Oris~any dark brow~
iron ore, manganese and mangan1ferous iron ore, with some mmor constituents
such as i:!obalt and zince oxide.

QUALITY.

. It would be difficult .to give a thor?ughly sa.tis~actor.l'.' .answer ag to the quality of these ores. Possibly an analysis of t~e strictly non ores would be-fot·
metalic iron, over 52 per cent. average; sihca, 5 to 13 per cent.; phosphorui1
0.100; sulphur, a trace. Some of the manganese ores obse~·ved are up to th~
standard. Manganiferous iron ores form a large proportwu of the ore bod
a.f different points.
,
y
TRANSPORTATlON.

A mere glance at the map will show facilities of ~ransportation of such a
character as to rendet· the property almost unequalled rn ~hat respect. Wheth .
it might be determined, on account of the good ~urnace SlteA and abnndance ~~·
limestone adjacent, to reduce the ores here or. ship them, the percentage of loe
due to handling either the product or ores will be much less than in the majo 1.~
ity of ore districts.

We find the following, wit.h reference to the "Bott mines,,. near Salem, iu
I.be Industrial Sout/1,, of last week. It will be seen that this report was made
by Mr. J. B. Gifford, of Philadelphia, last t.Iay, and what he says of it below
pl·oves its value. J\Ir. Gifford is quite a reliable expert, and is now engaged in
examining a.n&lt;l reporting upon the iron deposit.CJ that lie on the line of the Cripple CrePk Extension. This unlirnited quantity of iron ore, with all the advant,i.ges it possesses, is wit.bin about six miles of Salem, and fourteen miles of
Roanoke. Owing to other vast deposits of iron ore all around this section, it is
saiJ by those who should know, that no better place in Virginia could be found
for a furnace, than Salem. With fine water power convenient, excellent sites
olfered gratis, an&lt;l the unlimited supply of material close at hand, and the completion of the Yalley railroad to this point, why should not some of the present
110 n-paying iron mills of Pennsylvania be transplMted to Salem ? With the
y ~dley road completetl. to Salem, and an arm (of only about four miles) branching off to Roanoke city, these two places will, in the near future, afford manufactu1~ing facilities and advantages not to be found elsewhere in this State.
Read the following report, then remember that there are several other mines,
near Salem, juRt as rich, and you can form a fa.int idea of the true situation

PmLADEJ.PIIIA,

May 8, 1883.

Gentlemen-I have made a hnrried examination of your" P ....or Mountain"
.Roanoke county, Va., iron. ore property, which is known as the "~ott survey'.'·
conta.iniug abou~ twenty-eight hu~dred acres of .land .. and e!llbncmg the base
·ind northwest side of the mountarn from opposite Big Sprmg and ext1mJ.iug
~astwartl for miles along the mountain rangE), in which t.here are stratified seams
of shale and brown. hematite o~es ex.tending throt~gh t?e entire length of the
roperly, aggregatmg from fifty lo ~fffenty feet rn thickness, and extending
~own to an unknown depth, v.bich, 10 my opinion, is very valuable, not only
account of t~o millions of tons of o~·e it contains, but the superior quality of
011
iron that a 1mxture of these ores will produr:e. The ore belts a.re one mile
fro JU the :Norfolk &amp; W esteru railroad, and run parallel wit.h the road the en tire
lerigt.h of th e s urvey, and have a height, where t.hey crop out, of from 150 to
200 feet above water level. From what I could learn when on the propertv,
the dip of your ores is N . W., or with the mountain, which will enable yon to
rnine nt a low ?Ost, h~v ing ~ufficient gr!\~e for one-third of a. mile to. operate a.
self-acting incline which will r each a pornt from where you can build a tramw~y or narrow-gauge roac~ to the Norfol~ &amp; Western ra.ikoad, the entire distance baing about one .1111le. At. t~e point w~ere yo~ reach the .Norfolk &amp;
'\T estern r.:iilrord there is a. very desirable location for furnaces, havtng an ample supply of water and an inexhaustible suppiy of good limestone within a

quantity of ore that can be mined and delivered at low coat, which will pr oduce
good iron, an inexhaustible supply of good limestone that can be had cheap,
and being within res.ch of " Flat Top " West Virginia. coal, which produces the
best of col!:e, you could not in my opinion' select a more favorable location for
the cheap manufacture of good and cheap iron in Southwest Virginia. Should
you desire to dispose of the propedy you will have no difficulty in convincing
practical men of the advantages you have over many other localities as to
quantity and quality of ores and limestone, and the cheapness of mining and
delivery to railroad at the point shown me as a suitable location for furnaces.
By judiciou·s management the cost of producing pig iron from your Bott ores at
the point shown me should not exceed 'the following :

Messrs. McDonatd &amp; Lee :
Since the above report was \vritten extensive developments have been made
showing continuity of the ore lead through the property as practically inex

The estimate made by Mr. Gifford for coke, we think, is in exce!IS of cost by

Major Hotchkiss says in his January, 1883, Vvrginias, of this property before
it was developed : " All the indications indica~e t~e existence of a very large
body of excellent ore above water level and w1thm ea.qy reach nf the Norfolk

OSCAR w!LEY' M. D.
JJir. F. J. Oha:emrzn- D ear 8ir : It affords rue pleasure to testiFy to th~ medicinal virtues ot the waters of the Roanoke Red S ulph ur Sprmgs, which I
r egard as among the most valuable natural remedies which flow from the m.ountains of Virginia. 'fhe location has the great ad vantage of being dry , with a
uniform temperature. The grounds are well shaded, and t he pure mountain
air is always in cir culation. The accommodations for visito1·s are ampl e and
comfor table; the food is well prepared and of excellent q ua lity. 'The chalybeate
"~ater, nea.r the grounds, are well adapted to a ll conditions of aneamia of unpo1·v1shed blood, resulting from diseased conditions' of the system, or f rom whatever
cause. Iron oeiog the great. bloocl 1·estorer, is furnished iu t~e most accep table
form by these waters; out the principal feature of the place JS the Red Sulphur
w_ater.. 'fbis water is somewhat peculiar and of very great value on ~cc~rnnt of
d1oreti.c properties; it acts upon the kidneys, and enables them to eliminate a
weater amount of effete material from the system. The mild aperiynt proper.ty_
it p~s~es.ses causes. it to act upon the torpid secretions of the bowels, but its chief
medi?1.nal p1·opert1es, and the one which makes it va!uable in so many different
copd1~rnns of ~he system, is its alterative J)roperties. These and many oth~r
~mor propert~es, r~nd er the Roanoke Re Sulphur water a val uable and efficient .remedy m ekin disea-ses, the early stages of consumption, and pulmona.ry
affections. generally, in dyspepsia., general debility, nervous prostration and vas- c.ular excitement. Experience has proven it to be io va.Juable in diseases peculiar to females, and disordered conditions of the nervous system resul ting therefrom..
You can use th is as you see fit.
Truly and respectfully,

~OANOKE
AND ITS WONDERFUIJ 0 PPO R T UN ITIES
Including a Welcome by the Roanoke Realtors
OANOKE is r ightly called the Magic City, becau se of
its miraculous growth and progress from a mere village
·
in 1884 to a city whose present community p9pulation
is approximately 80,000.
This expansion has not been attained because of any lucky
stroke of fortune, or booms of unstable prosperity. Roanoke
is situated in the Valley of V iro·inia between the Blue Ridge
0
'
and A lleghany Mountains; in the midst of a fe r tile and r ich
agricultura l distr ict, and at a strategic point for shipments and
travel east and west, north and south. Because of these
advantages, it has become one of the most important rail centers of the south, and w ith its rapid growth , many manufacture rs have been attracted to the city. All these h ave cc nt r ibuted to its phenomen~ l increase in population and industry.

R

Climate
~ important feature o f any region considered by the
manufacturer a nd the homeseeker, is the climate. In this,

-·

·-Roanoke is absolutely unsurpassed. According to statistics recently furnished by Captain R. F. Dell, U . S . \\-eather Bureau,
the average per year from January 1, 1910, to J anuary 1, 1926,
was as fo llo ws : Average mean temperature, 56.34; average
rninfall, 38.23, and average snowfall, 12.50. The figures speak
for themselves. The sickly heat, so evident in many of the
eastern and southern r egions of the l.)nited States. is noticeably absent, while the moderate and pleasant winters are a
...velcome chanae from the severe and rigorous weather preva~ling in mat~y ·portions of the north and west during these
r:1onths.
S chool System
Educational facilities are not to be overlooked by the homeseeke r. The school system is thoroughly modern. A high
school costing $750,000 has just been completed, .and in addit;on there are two junior h igh schools and. ten elem~ntary
schools for whites. For the colored populat10n there 1s one

Highland Park, Roanoke

[4]

high school and two elementary schools. This part of the
citY.'s activities embraces a total of 14,000 pupils, with 400
teachers.
A s to colleges, and the means of higher education, it is difficult to conceive of any means by which the situation could
be improved. Roanoke College for men, unsurpassed by anything of its kind in equipment and teaching personnel, is situated within the city, as is also one of the best known and
nationally famous institutions for women-Hollins College.
H ere is also located V irginia College for \i\Tomen; and the
Roanoke National B usiness College. Near at hand, in Lexington, is the V irginia Military Institute, known all over the
country as second only to West Point Military Academy in
·military instruction; at Blackstone is Virginia Polytechnic Institute, also a military school, and well known as an engineering college; in Lexington is \ Nashington and Lee University,
and at Charlottesville the University of Virginia, established
by Thomas Jefferson and rated high among the country's universities as a center of education and culture.

.""" '"~·.
Banking
'Without proper banking facilities, no city can measure up
to a high standard as a manufacturing city. Lack of capital
makes satisfactory progress nigh impossible. In Roanoke
there are seven commercial banks, with a capital of $4,339,390; a surplus o f $2,343,080; with deposits o f $26,900,400,
and resources of $36,891,326. The trust companies, building
and loan associations, and industrial loan associations have a
combined capital and surplus of $1,754,729, and resources of
$2,309,369.
Industrial Payrolls
In Roanoke there a re ninety various industries, including
public service corporations, employing, approximately, 17,000
persons, who receive an annual pay of about $22,000,000,
with an annual value of output estimated at $60,000,000. The
capital and surplus employed in Roanoke industry amounts to
-approximately $24,000,000.

Agricultural Interests
Roanoke is situated in the center of an extensive agricultural district, with a large trucking section producing a variety
of vegetables throughout the year. There are many dairy
farms. The district is noted as a fruit producing section, and
many apples are marketed to the southern and mid-western
states_and exported abroad. This is also the largest canning
district in the south, specializing largely in tomatoes.

Power
Electric lighting and power service are furni shed by hydroelectric power and steam stations, possessing a combined capacity of 33,000 horsepower. This plant is located on the Roanoke River about four miles from Roanoke, while the steam
station is within the city limits. Both the electric lighting and
the power rates compare favorably with those in effect elsewhere .
Gateway
Roanoke is the gateway for automobile travel north, south
and west. It lies at the j unction of the Blue Ridge and the
Alleghanies, and right at the commencement of the beautiful
Shenandoah Valley. No part of the nation furni shes the
motorist with better roads, and the tourist can travel the entire length of the beautiful Shenandoah Valley on hard surface from Roanoke, through territory unsurpassed in historical lore from the earliest days o f the republic down to the
present. Many battles of the Revolution and Civil wars were
fought here, and the country abounds in colonial mansions
dating back to early days of the eighteenth century.
If you do come near this section, pay a visit to Roanoke,
and any member of the Roanoke R eal E state Board wi ll gladly
show you the city.

HOLLINS COLLEGE

A

DJA CENT to the City of Roanoke is Hollins College,
nationally knovvn as an institution for women, and fi rst
established in 1842 as a school for boys and girls,
known as "The School at Botetourt Springs," and later as
the Valley U nion Seminary.
. In 1852 the school was reorganized for " the higher education of young ladies," and in 1855 named Hollins Institute in
honor of M r. and M rs. John Hollins, of L ynchburg, Virginia,
who afforded th e institu tion financial aid in its early d ays.
~harl e~ L. Cock e, founder and fo r m ore than fi ft y years
president of Hollins, was a p ion eer in the cause of hio-her
educati ~n for women. He wrote as early as 1857: "The ; Jan
and policy o-f our school must be considered a true one. This
~I an recognizes the p rinciple that in the present state of society
m our country, young ladies require the same thorough and
r igid mental t raining as that afforded young men." Founded
on such principles as this, it was inevitable that the influence
of Hollins should be felt in the establishmen t of oth er schools
for women in V irgi nia and the South.
After the Civil 'vVa r the enrollment, d rawn at firs t from
V irginia alone, gradually extended to other southern states,
and later to the north and west. Through the influence of
Charles L. Cocke and the faculty associated with him, sincer ity
o f work and genuine standards of achi evement were maintained .f rom the beginn ing; equipment and standards advanced
steadily, and H ollins kept pace with th e movement for h igher
education of women that spread through the entire country
during the last quarter of the nineteenth century ; a movement in which this instit ution had been a pioneer.

In 1911 H ollins was standardized fo r four years o f college
work, based on an entrance requirement of fifteen units; the
college preparatory department was discontinued, and only
students without conditions are now accepted. The present
student body numbers 350 and is drawn from practically every
state in the U nion.
LAFAYETTE LEGEND
A n outstanding legend of Roanok e County is told by
M r. Charles J ohn ston, who, with a party of fi ve, went westwa1-d on a mercantile expedition. \i\'h ile descending the
O hio R iver in a rude, clumsy boat " ·hich they h ad con structed at P oint P leasant, t hey received sig nals of distress
from t wo wh ite men on the bank o f t he river. Proceeding
to their rescue they , on landing ,,·ere immediately s urrou nded
by hostile Ind ia ns. T oo late t hey realized the ruse t he "'·h ite
men had been Jed into.
Several of t he party suffered tort ure and death. l\fr.
Johnston's life was spared until he could teach the squaws
t he art o f maki ng co rn batter-cak es. On t his account he was
exchanged from tr ibe to tribe, and after passing t hrough t he
vicissitude of many changes his last captors threatened to
make h im the husband o f an old a nd ug ly squaw widow, and
the fath er o f her m.unerous Indian children. This fate was
spared h im, however, by t he hu rry and confusion of the
arrival o f the t ribe at an Indian trading post, called Sandusky. Here he was ransomed by Francois Duchoquet. a
F rench trader , fo r 600 silver brooches. These broodies were
used as a circulation medium and also as orna111ems for the
Indian Chi efs .

H d lins College

Mr. Johnston traveled with the F rench peddler for several
months and either in th is country or Fran~e he had the
pleasure of meeting General Lafayette, who became deeply
interested in his t hrilling experiences.
lWany years later, in the division of the land of the Prestonville Land Company o f wh ich M r. Johnston was a member,
the Carvin Lands with the sulphur springs were allotted to
Mr. Johnston.
He made extensive imp rovements and
established a sum mer resort wh ich became the well-known
Botetourt Springs. On LaFayette's second visit to this
country, thou gh lavishly entertained from Georgia to New
York, he found t ime to visit his fri~nd at Botetourt Springs.
On the same day of his arrival a singular coincidence h appened in the coming of M r. Duch oquet. The peddler's habi ts
and manner s were very queer, but equal ly amusing to neig hbors and friends .
Botetourt Springs became a well-known resting place of
statesmen in theil' journeys to and from the national capitol.
Its race track offered the opportunity for indu lgence in the
national past-time, and its sulphur waters contributed to the
health of those seeking its benefit.
Its historic back-ground was always of interest for the
reason that it was the home of William Carven, a noted
pioneer and Indian fighter, whose daring exploits speak
from every hill and dale .
This ground is now occupied by Hollins College. The old
Sulphur Spring maintains its even flow in draught of fl ood
t ime, and the college preserves in its educational work the
sincerity which marked the character of the p ioneers who in
former years strove and accomplished the best.

ROANOKE COLLEGE
Roanoke College, located at Salem, had its begin?ing in
1842 as the Virginia· Collegiate Institute. The Collegiate Institute was originally located near Staunton, but was moved
to Salem in 1845 and in 1853 was incorporated as Roanoke
College.
.
Roanoke was one of the few southern colleges that mamtained their instruction throughout the · war of 1861-65.
Through the efforts of Dr. David F. Bittle, the founder and
the first president, students who reached the age of eighteen
during a given session were permitted by the Secretary of
'vVar of the Confeder.a te States to remain in college until the
close of the session. Du1;ng a part of the war, the dormitories and literary society halls were used as hospitals for
wounded and disabled soldiers.
During its eighty-three years history, approximately six
thou sand students have received their education at Roanoke
Coilege. In the early days of the institution, a very large
proportion of the · students entered the ministry of the
Lutheran, Episcopal, Methodi st, Presbyterian, and Baptist
denominations. Fifteen per cent of the alumni have entered
law and 11 per cent some phase o f educational work. The
medical profession, business, and agriculture each claims approximately JO per cent. Twenty-nine college presidents have
been educated at Roanoke and seventy-four alumni now hold
important positions in American colleges and universities.
All departments of the coliege are thbrough'ly standardized.
At present, Roanoke College has a faculty of twenty-five with
a full-time professor in charge of each department of instruction. The more important of these departments are Languages, History, Political Science, Economics, Business Ad-

ministration, Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, Biology,
Philosophy, and Education.
Along with the rai sing of the standards, there has been a
marked improvement in the personnel of the student body.
Roanoke's student body during the regular session of 1925-26
was two hundred fifty-seven. 'With the extension and summer
school departments, the total enrollment was five hundred
thirty-eight. In the interest of greater efficiency and to
render to each student the best possible individual attenti on,
the trustees took action in June limiting the attendance for
the regular session o f 1926-27 to two hundred fifty. Each
young man enrolled at the college is a graduate of a standard
high school or preparatory school. Although Virginia is well
in the lead in states represented at the college, there are many
young men from \Vest Vi rginia, Korth Carolina, Sou th Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, :\1aryland, Penn syh-ania,
Xew York, Ohio, Indiana, and A1·kansas, as well as several
foreign countries. Perhaps there is no other college of its
size in the south that has attracted so large a number of
students from distant sections. A lumni of Roanoke College
are now found in every state of the U nion.
There are thirty acres of college grounds. During the
past summe1·, extensive improvements have been made to the
athletic field. There are nine buildings, five of which have
been erected since 1912. The dormitory system is one of the
most attractive and convenient to be found in Vi rginia .
\ll/hilc the college makes its chief work the regular A. B.
and B. S . courses, it also gives very definite preparation for
those planning to study law, dentistry, medicine, theology,
education, or bu$iness administration. The pre-law, premedical, and pre-dental courses offered at the college are given
the highest recognition by the leading universities.

For the past three years, the administration of Roanoke
has been concentrating upon strengthening the college internally, and raising an adequate endowment fund.
Roanoke College has been inseparably linked with the development of Southwest V irginia. As business men, farm ers,
lawyers, doctors, dentists, journalists, teachers, m in isters,
Roanoke graduates have been intimately associated with all
that has pertained to the welfare of this section. Former students of the college are found m every city and town of
Southwest Virginia.
There is no desire to make Roanoke a college great 111
numbers, but rath er to give it distincti on both at home and
abroad for the quality of work done, for intimate and friendly
contacts between students and faculty and for the maintenance
o f live, healthy, and flourishing student activities. In the
words o f President Smith, "I want R oanoke College to be
~ high-grade ins titution which shall be the cultural servant
and the joy o f every citizen of this section of V irginia."

R OANOKE NATIONAL BUSINESS COLLE GE
Every possible business need has been met in the revi sed
courses of study offered in this college. Eight fully accredited
courses are offered : Junior Training for Modern Business;
Higher Accountancy and Business Administration; Stenographi c; Banking and Finance; Salesmanship and Business Efficiency; Commercial Teaching; Secretarial; Complete Business. with conferring of H . G. B. degree upon graduation.
The college is preparing for the beginning of its fortieth
year of progress and prosperity, with the biggest expansion
program in its history. The wider fields of service which the
admini stration has planned fo r the future, combined with a
large increase in attendance, have called for a new building,

The N ational's 1926 Catalogue and Year Book, issued
about the first of August, has al ready been proclaimed by
both p ress and recipients of copies, as the foremost book of
its kind this year. Complete in every detail, this modern book
o f business is a veritable storehouse of helpful information
for every one inter ested in any b ra nch of commercial activity ;
particularly those concerned with business education and the
o pportu nities it offers in many lucrative fields.
VIR GINIA COLLEGE
. \'.irginia Colleg e was founded in 1893 by the late Dr.
W ilham A nderson Harr is, a d istinguished scholar and educato r, a~d former P residen t of LaGrange College, LaGrange,
Georgia; Mar tha Washington College, Abingdon, Vi rginia,
and the \i\Tesleyan Female Institute, Staunton, V irginia. A fter
the death of Dr. Harris in 1896, the management of V irginia
College was assu med by his two daughters, Mattie P . Harris
an~ Gertrude Harris Boatwright, who had been closely associated with him in educational work. From the beginning
the co?ege !~as enjo~ed an enviable reputation, its pupils repre.sentmg thirty-two or mor e states, and several foreign countries. Each year improvements have been made to increase
the efficiency of the ''-'Ork, and recently a new dormitory was
erected to provide fo r the greater number o f students. I n
order to meet the growing demands of education, the college
library has been enlarged this year, and will have an addition
of 3,000 volumes. The Y. vV. C. A. is also enlarging its

bungalow in order to have sufficient space fo r a large tea room
to be use&lt;l by the college students and their friends.
V irginia College is a junior institution, with a course of
study conforming to the first two years of college work as
given by Smith, W ellesley, Goucher and other leading colleges
and universities. The facu lty consists of twenty-five or more
coll ege men and women. The manag ement and alumni contemplate, in the near fu ture, many improvements to the buildings and g rounds. Virginia College numbers among its
alumni distinguished women who are now fill ing positions of
great 1·esponsibility, several of whom are presidents of large
schools and universities. In addition to the academic work
given at Virginia College, electives are offered in Domestic
Science, Art, Music, Commercial Training, J ournalism, Library Methods and Expression.
W ASHINGTOJN AN.O LEE UNIVERSITY
W ashington and Lee was founded in 1749 as Augusta
Ac~demy, a Southern companion of Yale, H a rva rd, and
P rinceton.
L i!&lt;e them it was independent from the beginning of church
and state limitations, ownership, and financial support, owned
and controlled by a self-perpetuating Board of Trustees, and
financed entirely by the p rivate liberality of public-spirited
citizens. It was the first concrete expression of that devotion
to learning and religion which characterized the settlers of
the Valley of V irginia and the fi fth in order of founding of
our American colleges.
In the spring of 1776, two months before the D eclaration

�SEPTEMBER,

1926

[ 11 ]

of Independence, by the unanimous action of the Board of
Trustees, its name was changed to Liberty Hall. In 178~ it
was formally incorporated as an independent institution, free
of ecclesiastical and political limitations. In 1798 it was
chosen by George Washington, endowed by him with a gift of
stock valued at $50,000, and formally authorized to bear his
name. After the wreck of the Civil 'Nar, the institution was
re-organized and developed by the genius of Robert E. Lee,
who accepted its presidency in 1865, fixed its traditions of
courtesy, honor, and patriotism, hallowed for all time its spirit,
and bequeathed to its keeping his sacred dust, his matchless
influence and example, and his incomparable name. His great
kinsman, being rich, had endowed the college with his money.
General Lee, having no money, gave himself to the institution
and thus enriched it forever. After h is death, the name of
t he transformed and re-organized college was changed to
Washington and Lee U niversity. In its ennobling memories
and traditions no instit ution in America can compare with
Washington and Lee.
In its location, its history, and its great founders, it seems
forever set apart from low aims and sordid labors to serve the
things of the spirit and lift young men toward leadership and
public service of the 'Washington and Lee type.
It is still financed for its great work wholly by private
liberality, having no support whatever from tax-revenues or
denominational contributions, and for lack of working-capital
must close its doors each year to scores of eager young Americans seeking the privilege of its exceptional training. Contributors to its equipment or to its Lee Memorial Endowment
become active partners of its immortal president.
Washington and Lee University is especially noted for the
remarkable number of its graduates who have attained prominence in national affairs since the devastation of the Civil
War. Among these are a new J ustice of the Supreme Court,
J oseph R. Lamar, class of 1878; in which were also exGovernor Stephens, of Missouri; and ex-Governor MacCorkle,

THE VIRGINIA REALTOR

of West Virginia. In the Senate of the United States are
five graduates of this university-Foster, of Louisiana;
Chamberlain, of Oregon; Owen, of Oklahoma; Bryan, of
F lorida; and Poindexter, of Washington. The Chief Justice
of the Court of Claims in \l\iashington was graduated in 1868,
and still other orominent graduates are Thomas Xel son Page,
Clifton R. Breckenridge, lately ambassador to Russia,
\ Vade H. Ellis, Dr. J as. H. Dillard, the head of the Jeanes
Fund, and Julius Kruttschnitt, now prominent as the executive of the Harriman railways.
The St. Louis Republic has a theory for this production
of famous men. It is this :
"The kind of education that makes great men is not merely
cultural, technical, or what not : it is a training that unlocks
the possibilities of personality."
THE VIRGINIA MILITARY INSTI TUTE
Patterned after West Point though it is, the founders of
the Virginia Military Institute always kept in mind the difference which must exist between the two systems of instruction at the two institutions. They realized full well that the
V . M. I. cadet at graduation has no fixed position waiting for
him other than that dictated by the law of supply and demand
for men trnined in the various arts and sciences. Courses
offered include Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering,
Chemistry, and Liberal Arts. Having in the formative period
of life learned to obey, the cadet is better fitted to command
others, or to be a leader of men.
A check of a class ten years after graduation showed that
18 per cent were engaged in mercantile pursuits; 11 per cent
entered the a rmy : 10 per cent were engaged in engineering
and contracting; 10 per cent in traction and transportation ;
10 per cent were lawyers; 7 per cent engaged in manufacturing; 4 per cent in each of the five following: Lumber business, banking, tobacco industry, medical profession, and
educational work: 3 per cent were farmers; 3 per cent in the

I~ the words of General Pershing, who delivered the commencemen t address at the Institute in June, 1920 :·
" Important problems confront not only this N ation, but
other n ations, that will require men of character, men o f
ability, for their solution. The solution of these· problems
m ust be worked out by the younger generation. You have
simply laid the foundation upon which to build ... You have
learned habits of study, learned what integrity o f character
means, and you are prepared more than any oth ers I know o f
to undertak e th e solution of these problems."
THE VIRGIN I A POLY TECHNIC INSTITUTE
T he Virginia Polytechnic Institute, prominent through out
the n ation as an engineering college, was established in 1878,
and is situated in Blacksburg, about an hour's d rive from
R oanoke.
Engineering and agriculture are the t wo main
c?~rses of study, and t he engineering school offers cou rses in
cr;1J, electrical, and mechanical engineering. Courses in
science and business are also offered.
The school is famous, not only as an edu cational center,
but also as a milita ry academy. This branch of t raining is in
the hands of U . S . Army officers, and the school has attained
a standing o f O ass A with the government, in effect for the
last five years. Gr adu ates are eligible for the U . S . Reserve.
The proximity of this famous engineering school to Roanoke aff? rds special opportunity to the young men and women
o f the city for study in these professions. For t he last three
years the school has been co-educational in nature, and included in the student body are many young women who have
elected one of the professions offered as a lifetime work.
Attendance at the school has grown from a few score at
the time of its establishment, to 1,200 du ring the school year
1925-26. For the coming yea r there have been registered over
1,300. An alumni association second to none has been estab-

lished, and in Roanoke alone its membership amounts to
364 men.
T h e school is distinguishe·&lt;l for its graduates throughout
the count ry who have attained prominence in their professions,
and is also noted fo r the patriotic sentiment of · the student
body, which, during the· late World War, enlisted or were
commissioned, almost to a man. ' This college had more men
·in the U . 'S . service during the war, per capita, than any
similar institution 1~ the U nited S tates.
MAGIC CITY
T he land on which the City of Roanoke stands was granted
to Thomas T osh in 1747-1600 acres . .Also a g rant by George
II to J ohn Smith in 1756, Smith sold his grant of four hundred acres to Malcolm Campbell for five shillings. Th.is grant
was called "Big Lick." I n a portion of Lewis Preston Summer's J ournal of March 15, 1749, we read: "We went to
Great L ick, on a branoh of the Staunton River, and bought
corn of Michael Campbell. T his L ick was has been one of
the bes.t places fo r game in these parts, and would have been
much better advantage to the inhabitants h ad the hunters not
killed the buffalo for diversion, and the elk and deer for
their skins."
Can busy, bustling Roanokers realize the land upon which
the First National Bank Building now stands was an immense
salt lick where the white salt covered its entire surface, thus
inviting animals to its feast of salt; or that still many years
later in t he summer of 1860 Henry S. T rout, then only
eighteen years o f age, plowed corn on this same land and cut
wh eat in the field where the H otel Roanoke now stands, and
admitted that though he had climbed over the famous stone
wall o f Gettysburg. he was frequently driven from these agriculture fields by the bees to the protection of the cool forest
where the City Courthouse now stands ?

HE beautiful Colonial home known as Fort Lewi s is
situated on the south side of the Lee Highway about
three miles west of Salem, and was so called because
it was here that Colonel Andrew Lewis (later General Lewis)
took his stand in the protection of the frontier . from the Indians, as directed by General \i\Tashing ton, who had received
his instructions from Governor Dinwiddie.
The fort built by Colonel Lewis stood at a distance of
about one hundred and fifty feet doe west from the center
of the present building. l\fr. Alexander \;yhite recollected
seeing the rubbish of the fort which was built of logs on a
foundation of ·flat field stone, and the remains were not entirely removed until after the Civil \Var.
Mr. Samuel White, fathe r of Alexander ·vVhite. bought a
boundary of land of four thousand five hundred acres running east and west up the valley between the mountains on
the north and Roanoke River on the south, and in 1822 built
the present residence just east of the old fort.
When iVIr. White was having the cellar dug, the skeletons of. half a dozen men were found buried in one grave,
under what is the center hall of the building. T hey were
removed and buried elsewhere. He was of the opinion that
as these bodies were all buried in one g rave, they were killed
at the same time in some battle at the fort .
T he b rick fo r the building were hauled in fom·~horse
wagons from Lynchburg .
Tradition says the original deed to this bounda1·y of land
was signed by George III, and was recorded in the Court
House at Fincastle, which record was destroyed by fire some
years later, along with many other valuable records. It is

T

known that the original copy of the deed remained in possession of Mr. A lexander ·white until after 1885, when it
was loaned to a neighbor to settle some bounoory lines, and
was lost.

Fort Lewis Chapter
"Fort Lewis Ch apter" is t he name chosen by the new chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution organized
at Salem, November 18, 1924. This name is most appropriate since about three miles west of Salem is the site of Fort
Lewis. a pre-revolutionary front ier fort, built for protection
against the Indians. No definite history as to the building
of the fort or the e..xact date of its construction is available.
Several suppositions may be made from references in the
early colonial records.
Other historians think the fort was built by General
Andrew Lewis who afterwards lived near the present site of
alem. The following letter from Governor Dinwiddie to Colonel \\"ash ington is found in the Dinwiddie Papers: "Sept.
11, 1754. I now order you to give a detachment of forty or
fifty Men to Capt. Andrew Lewis. With them he is to march
immediately to Augusta Co. in order to protect our Frontiers'
from the Incursions of small Parties of Indians, and I suppose some French. Order him to march immediately and to
apply to Colo. Patton the County Lieut. who will direct him
where to proceed t hat he may be most useful . . .. I think
you may order "William ·wright to join Captain Lewis when
he goes to Augusta." The same day the Governor addressed
a letter with similar instructions to Captain Lewis himself,
telling him to apply to Colonel Patton (near Buchanan) for

�[ 16]

THE VIRGINIA REALTOR

instructions as to where he could be most useful in protecting
.the frontier of the county.
\\"addell's Annals of Augusta, in referring to this, say:
"On the sixth of October, 1854, Captain Lewis was on his
march to protect the frontier. He went somewhere west or
south of Staunton, but to what point we cannot ascertain,
and built a stockade fort there t o check Indian raids-perhaps it was in Greenbriar county, or it may have been Fort
Lewis near the site of the present town of Salem, in Roanoke
County."
In commenting on these circumstances, George S. Jack
in his history of Roanoke County, concludes that Fort Lewis
is the stockade built by Lewis in carrying out the Governor's
orders. He says : "As the orders show that Captain L ewis
was to apply to Colonel Patton, County Lieutenant, who resided at Pattonsburg, on the north side of the James River
at Buchanan, for directions, and the further facts that important land grants were given him in Roanoke Valley contiguous to, and about the site of old Fort Lewis, and his
final settlement nearby, all lead to the well established opinion
that it was here that he built the stockade mentioned. Even
the name "Fort Lewis" is suggestive of the fact that it was
at this point he took his stand in the protection of the
frontier."
As to the general conditions in this section we know that
when the pioneers settled in the Valley and Southwest Virginia, the greater part of this section had ceased to be the
settled home of any particular Indian tribe. It was the
common hunting ground of the Shawnees, Cherokees · and
other Southern Indians. Here they met in friendly chase
and here too they met in deadly encounter with the northern
tribes who lived near the Great Lakes. I t is spoken of as
the "Debatable Land ," being so fair and valuable that the
I~dians were unwilling that any one tribe should possess it.
Smee the great Appalachian chain could nowhere else be so
easily crossed this was the great thoroughfare between the
Northern and Southern Indians and their trail called the
"Great Path," passed along near the route of the present
macadamized road through the Southwest counties.
Since this section was the path "of migration, of chase and
of savage invasion," it was very necessary that the whites
who came to settle here should have some protection and it
was for such service that Fort Lewis was erected.
Eve~ though the exact date and origin of the fort cannot
be defimtely stated the fort was built just a few yards southwest of the ~resent home of Mr. George Vv. Payne, known
a s F ort Lewis. A letter from Hickory N C January 20

upright logs, loopholed, with strong blockhouses as bastions
at the corners. One side a.t least was generally formed by
the backs of the cabins themselves all standing in a row,
and there was a great door or gate, that could be strongly
barred in case of need. Often no iron \vhatever was employed in any of the buildings. The square inside contained
the provision sheds and frequently a strong central blockhouse as well. These forts of course could not stand against
cannon and they were always in danger when attacked with
fire; but save for this risk of burning they were very effective defense against men without ai·tillery and were rarely
taken, whether by whites or Indians, except by surprise."
After the defeat of Braddock in 1755 the whole western
frontier was left exposed to the incursions of the Indians.
The history of the Valley abounds in stories of Indian incursions and massacres. Located at the very entrance to the
Valley no doubt this com.murtity was often harrassed. The
following incidents may serve as examples of what probably
occurred in many localities.
Hale in "Trans-Allegheny Pioneers," says, "On the 8th of
July, 1755, being Sunday when all was at peace and there was
no suspicion of harm or danger, a party of Shawnees from
beyond the Ohio fell upon Draper's Meadows settlement (near
the present site of Blacksburg) and killed, wounded or captured every soul there present.'' Then follows the fascinating
story of the escape of Mrs. Ingles and of Mrs. Draper.
The following account of the Sandy Expedition is given
in Pendleton's "History of Tazewell and the Southwest."
"In the summer of 1755 just about the time of the attack
upon Draper's Meadow, a scalping party of Shawnees made
an incursion into the Middle Holston Valley. There were a
number of persons killed, wounded, and captured on New
River and Reed Creek, by these same Indians who persisted
in sending scalping parties to those sections in the summer
and fall of 1755 and in February and March, 1756. It was
to avenge the outrages inflicted upon the settlers that the
'Sandy Expedition' was projected. The purpose of this expedition was to march to the Ohio River and punish the
Shawnees. Col. Andrew· Lewis was commander of the expedition and his forces consisted of about 400 men, including
100 Cherokee and Chickasaw Indians who had been induced
to become allies of the Virginians in the French and Indian
wars. This small army was composed of Augusta County
militia and of companies of volunteers. This expedition was
assembled at Ft. Prince George, afterwards called Fort Lewis,
four miles west of where Salem now is located. . . . . .
!The expedition had been organized to go to the Ohio to look
for the Shawnees and destroy them, but Major Lewis and
his little army were about to come in contact with bands of
these IndiaJ1ls at a point only some 60 miles distant from
Fort Prince George or Fort Lewis." Then follows the account of the remainder of this disastrous expedition.
Although the records we have of such incursions and of
the defense by the brave frontiersmen are very meager, our
imagination can picture many instances in which the settlers
found shelter in Fort Lewis or in which the militia would set
out from the fort to go to the rescue of some harrassed settlement. The citizens of Roanoke Valley will ever gratefully
remember Fort Lewis as the place of shelter and protection
for th&lt;:ir forefathers.

There are more than 400 teachers and special supervisors,
and approximately 14,000 students, as . shown by this list.
This indicates that out of a total populat10n of 80,000, nearly
one-sixth of all are att.ending the schools of Roanoke, and in

~oanoke

making this estimate, it should also be rememb.ered that included in this population are the colored people of Roanoke,
devoted to the education of their children, and of whom both
city and state are proud.
The aim of the schools is to afford the children the best
of instruction in elementary, junior, and senior high courses,
with the additional advantages of extra curricular activities;
pre-vocational guidance and evening school opportunities.
Citrricula.- In the elementary schools a foundation course
of six years is required with supervision of writing, art, music
and methods. All work above the sixth year is departmental.
In the Junior High Schools a flexible program, supplemented
by try-out courses and extra-curricular activities of a prevocational nature, is offered to recognize and meet the individual needs of adolescent students. In the Senior High School
a liberal course offering electives suitable for vocational, commercial and classical graduates is offered.
And to house all this great industry, and concentrate its
activities, there have been erected a three-quarter million
dollar High School; two Junior High Schools, and ten eleme_n tary schools fo r the white. One High School and two
elementary schools for colored have been constructed.
The school system is organized on the 6-3-3 plan, incorporating the junior high school idea. This organization is

based on six years of required elementary trammg; three
junior high years of tryout and pre-vocational courses, and
three years of senior high required and elective courses.
Curricular activities includes special musical organizations
and orchestra practice; dramatic clubs; newspaper staffs with
daily and weekly news columns in the local papers; current
events and civic study clubs ; health and physical education;
Bible instruction, and training in morals, manners, and appreciation of arts.
There are Pa rent-Teachers Associations, and these are
alive. active organizations of each school in th e city, held together by a Central Council composed of representatives from
each association. Jn addition to individual school activities,
the association maintains a policy of giving a school pageant
or ex hibit annually for the benefit o f the schools as a whole.
As for the Evening School, its aim is to afford to those
members of the community who have been d enied the pri vilege, an opportunity to acquire the fundamentals of a good
grammar school education. and also to teach them the qualifications n ece!'sary fo r a better citizenship and an enjoyable
Ji fe in Roanoke.

GEORGE WASHING TON'S S CALP
(T hat might have been)
There is a tradition in connection with \Vashington's visit
to the forts in this vicinity told by Kercheval in his " History
of the Valley." He says: "Several old Indian chiefs had
offered considerable premiums to any warrior or set of warriors who would bring out \ \iashington's scalp. Several Indians heard that 'vVashington was on his way to inspect the
fort very near Roanoke River. T here were two roads leading to the fort: the one across the mountain was the shortest
way; the one on level land the better. The several Ind ians
placed themselves in ambush and lay concealed two days and
n igh ts but \i\Tashington did not pass. T hey g rew impatient,
and their Chief, on the third day, stated that he woul d go to
the other road and asce·rtain whether \Vashington had taken
that route to the fort, the two roads being only one mi le
apart. He gave his men positive orders not to fire at any
persons that might pass in his absence. \\"hile he was gone,
Colonel \ Vashington, Colonel Lewis, and Colonel P reston, all
three passed close by the enemy without being molested.

Growth of the

The First National Exchange Bank of Roanoke

A

CERTAIN index of the stability and the growth of a
city. is the extent of its banking resources and the
vaned services that its financial institutions are prepared to render. Banks, like other business organizations,
must keep efficiently organized to render maximum service to
their clients. They must have the understanding, acquired by
seasoned experience through the business activities of years
of growth, they must have the modern equipment of builtlings and devices to adequately serve their clients and above all
they must be prudently managed and conducted along conservative banking lines, for in no other lines of business does
the time-honored slogan, "Honesty is the best policy," apply so
well as it does to the management of financial institutions.
Roanoke is indeed fortunate that it has ten financial institutions covering almost th e entire range of financial . organizations. They are fully equipped to render service and
ex tend accomodation not onl y to the legitimate business
needs of the city, but to that vast and growing territory that
looks to Roanoke for financial assistance in developing the
resources that have hardly been touched \vhen the magnitude
of its possibilities are seriously considered.
These institutions of Roanoke when reporting to the Comptroller of the Currency and to the State Banking Department
on June 30th, showed total resources of $37.357,211.05. This
enormous sum may be fairly indicative of the importance of
Roanoke as the financial center of the territory sometimes

called "The Mountain Empire." T he deposits of these banks
total $26,339, 198.77, while their capital was $4,908,290.5 5, and
their surplus, profits and reserves were $2,354,394.97, making
their combined capital, surplus, profits and reserves the large
amount of $7,262,685.52. This vast accumulation of weaith
makes R oanoke the strongest fi nancial center in the state,
excepting Richmond and :::-for folk.
Business that does not p roperly come under the scope of
commercial banking is adequately taken care of by the finance
companies and oth er organizations of a similar nature. A
large business has r esulted from the handling of automobiles
and other forms of monthly notes secured by real estate and
otherwise.
Closely linked with the banking business of a community
is the insurance business, both Ii fe, fire and other forms of
business insurance. This field in Roanoke is adequately supplied by local companies of recognized stand ing ani:I financial
strength as well as with agencies of the leading domestic and
foreign compan ies.
_Inseparably linked with the splendid growing resources of
R oanok e fi nancial instit utions is the experience of the local
bankers and financiers, who through constant study of the
fi nancial reEJuirements of Roanoke and environs have been the
great contributing factor in the marvelous growth of our city
and the great Southwest. sometimes known as "The Great
Mountain Empire."

�THE VIRGINIA REALTOR

[ 20 ]

"Progressive Conservatism;· perhaps best expresses the
policy of the Roanoke financial institutions. For through
their commercial, savings, safe deposit, trust, foreign and collection departments, the· needs of corporations, companies and
individuals are taken care of in an entirely adequate manner.
Many of the banks in the territory adjacent to Roanoke find it
convenient to carry their reserves with local banks. The experience of these banks has been that in Roanoke they secure
high class and satisfactory banking service for their every
requirement. The policy of the Roanoke banks has been to
lend financial assistance to their bank correspondents from
time to time and to cooperate with them in every way, believing
that in union there is strength and that whatever is good for
the banks of the surrounding territory surely reflects the
growth of Roanoke also.
It is everywhere a recognized principle. that banks are the
life blood of a community and that strong, progressive banks

SEPTEMBER,

1926

are its greatest asset. This is an ideal condition that applies
to Roanoke and the entire territory tributary thereto. For
perhaps in no other sections. may be found as strong and as
progressive financial institutions.
Many of them have
weathered the business depressions of many years and are
now recognized financial strongholds. They have fostered the
legitimate business enterprises of their communities, have kept
fully abreast of the times and as a result form the keystone in
the arch of progress of Virginia. They have collected the
small sums from individuals and others in the community and
through skillful handling have converted these funds into large
working balances, that flow into the business of our communities, building homes, adequately equipped farms, and contributing so well to the happiness of our country. It is well
to remember then that our banks are serving a useful and
necessary purpose in the scheme of modern civilization and
should r~eive the hearty support of every loyal citizen.

right to look back upon with patriotic emotions o f pride and
gratitude.
"\\"e must not forget that d uring all the years o f tii::
French and Indian W ars the crucial question was whether the
civilization of this country, at least that portion of it lying
west of the A ll eghany mountains, was to be dominated and
controlled by French or A nglo-Saxon influences. This borderland o f ours at that d ate was th e fi rst line of defense to protect the settlers of the tidewater section of the State from

(Owned by Col. George Carr)
Tn the Belmont section of Roanoke on top of a high hill
fo rmerly stood the Mansion House of Hawkesdale. Colonel
George Carr, its owner, was not only noted for his superb
physical beauty, his intellectual attainments, and an almost
unparalleled war record, but also for many idiosyncrasies. It
is said that instead of riding his spirited horse over the plantation to give his various orders, he would stand upon the
veranda of Hawkesdale and make his stentorian voice reach
to the farth est ends o f his domain. It was again said. during
his successful wars against the Indians, that when giving his
commands to his troops the Indians hearing the unusual
sounds would take flight. His humanity to animals was expressed by hi s habit when dismounting of attach ing his bridle
rein to his dog's collar so that the horse could graze during
his absence. W hen teaching his children the classics he required them to lie fl at beside him on the floor until the reading was over. H e always wore two pairs of trousers when
galloping over the winter snows. One morning he tore across
country to the call of a sick relation, where upon entering the
mansion alone and unannounced, he began removing hi s top
trousers in the front hall. Unexpectedly, his sister-in-law
enterc::d from a rear door. Seeing the spectacle she shrieked:
"George !"
"Be calm, my dear, don't disturb the sick," he replied ;
" T have on two pairs."

�Churches of Woanoke
By REV. W. C. CAMPBE LL,

Pastor Emeritus, First Presbyterian Church of Roanoke
H URCHES are always a factor of the first importance
in the make-up of any community. The man who seeks
a rl!sidence in a new city with his family, is attracted,
not simply by its advantages as a place to secure a fortune,
but he must have a place in which to rear his family. The
. interests of his children are paramount to every other consideration. No true father in this age cares like Lot of old •to
pitch his tent toward Sodom.
Then~ is no institution that ministers so largely toward the
formation of noble character, correct living and upright business dealing as the Church of God.
The Church is a unique institution. It is like a family.
Every family is a little commonwealth composed of the father
and mother and children. Within this little commonwealth the
future citizen is born and reared. Here he is taught obedience
to authority, reverence, fiJia l love, and, in fact, all those virtues that enter into the formation of the future citizen.
The Church of God is like the family. It is a commonwealth o f restricted bounds and hedged about by conditions
that protect, and within which are taught those principles that
conduce to upright character, obedience to constituted authority, respect for the rights of others, patriotism and all
those .qualities that adorn character.
The Church cultivates all those virtues that make safe the
rig hts of person and property. In the Church and home. society and government find their stable and most desirable
elements. For this reason the Churches in our land furnish

C

to the government the constituency and support that make
righteous and just government possible.
It has often seemed to the writer that those who advertise
a city give too little space, and sometimes no space, to its
churches. They advertise banks and stores and furnaces and
railroads and hotels, but the most important institution to the
father, who desires to become a citizen, is ignored. He wants
a Church in which to rear his children, and where he may
worship, and a school in which his children may be taught.
Roanoke has always been a city of chw-ches. Even when
only a small village it had its places of worship. Then, as it
grew, other denominations came, and churches multiplied until today Roanoke has nearly seventy places of worship, representing the three great theistic religions, Jewish, Protestant
and Roman and Greek Catholic. All the great Protestant
denominations are represented. Baptist. Christian. Methodist,
Episcopal, Lutheran, P resbyterian, Reformed, and with a
number of the smaller denominations. These are all represented in Church build ings, many o f which would do credit
to our largest cities, equipped with every up-to-date method
fo r reach ing and training the Ii fe of their people.
The ministers of these churches are united in a Ministers'
Conference composed of the pastors of the Protestant
Churches of ·R oanoke, .Vinton and Salem. This body meets
regularly each month. The unity and fellowship and friendly
intercourse characterizing this body of men is often a matter
of comment by strangers who join it or attend its meetings.

to Mr. John C. Moomaw, who in turn carried them to Lexington, and delivered them to the committee then in session.
The members of the committee were strongly impressed and
Colonel U . L. Boyce, one of the committee, remarked with
emphasis, "Gentlemen, this brings the road to Big Lick."
The proposition was accepted and Big Lick was made
the connecting point of the Shenandoah Valley and the Norfolk and \Yestern. A visit was made to the town by Frederick L. Kimball and others associated with him in the project of building the road, and an enthusiastic meeting of the
citizens was held. Colonel Boyce predicted that within three
years the town would have a population of five t_h ousand,
and his statement was considered extremely visionary. In
January, 1884, Jess t ime than he specified, the population of
the town had increased to fi ve thousand two hundred and
seventy-six.

The Name of Roanoke
Shortly after this meeting another one was called in the
old Rorer Hall which then stood at the northwest corner of
Campbell aven~e and Roanoke st reet, for the pu rpose of
selecting a new name for the town. .Among th~ names ~d­
vanced was that of "Kimball," hononng Fredenck L . K1mball, president of the Shenandoah Valley Railroad and
later of the Norfolk and \ll/estern. Mr. T. T . Fishburne, however, suggested the name "Roanoke," an_d after some di~­
cussion it was decided to telegraph M~. Kimball to ascertam
his wishes in the matter. He immediately replied, "By all
means adopt the name of Roanoke."

THE VIRGINIA REALTOR

Accordingly a new charter making this change and also
suggesting the city limits "·as granted by the legislature on
February 3, 1882. The next charter \\·as on January 31, 1884,
when the legislature recognized R oanoke as a city.
The name "Roanoke" was taken from the county in which
the city is located. The county name, we are told, was taken
from an Indian work describing a system of "shell money"
used by the natives. These pieces of shell had holes in the
center, and were carried by stringing them on pieces of deer
hide. Old records have shown where sales were made for
so many "arm lengths of Roanoke."
At a mass meeting held January 18, 1884, an enumeration
showed the population to be 5,276. A committee was appointed to prepare a charter fo r the new city. The draft submitted by this committee formed the basis of the charter
granted by the legislature on J anuary 31, 1884, which also
extended the city limits, and appointed Lucien H . Cocke the
brst mayor of the Magic City.
The reason for the name Magic City as applied to Roanoke
is easily seen by g lancing over some of the population statistics, as follows :

by the electrification of one hundred and thirty-six miles of
the New River Division of the Virginian Railway. The operation will be put into effect on September 18, w~en many
coal bu~ning locomotives will be superceded by electric i:noto~s.
The history of the Virginian Railway has been umque m
the transportation world. \Vhen this line was completed about
sixteen years ago by the late H. H . Rogers and the vast coal
tonnage began to move, it was soon demons~rated that ~he
largest steam locomotives in the world at that tune were bemg
used, and from that time up to now this railway has held the
record of handling the largest freight trains in the world.
W hile holding this wonderful record the railway world
was again profoundly interested over a year ago to !ear~ th~t
the V irginian had decided to put in the longest electnc division ever undertaken, and to move mass tonnage per train
of 12,000 tons, or about 120 cars, over its mountai1li district
with electric locomotives. This startling engineering fact has
just become accomplished and on September 18 these monster
trains will commence to operate. The division extends from
Roanoke 136 miles to Mullins, W . Va., which isl in the heart
!Jf the Virgini an coal fields. Steel poles have been erected
c.&gt;ver this district and the trolley and feeder lines stretched.

T

A tremendous power house has been erected at Narrows,
Virginia, producing 88,000 volts, which will drive these electric monsters over the hills. This work has been accomplished
during a period of a little over a year, at a cost of over
$18,000,000. It is considered a complete revolution in the
handling of mass tonnage.
The successful completion of this great enterprise is of
peculiar interest to the people o f Roanoke and Southwestern
V.irginia. The advent of this railroad into Roanoke a few
years back gave to the city a new life and renewed prosperity
which has never ceased since its inception. The city has
more than doubled in popu~ation since the line was built, and
the coming of new industries as a consequence had caused
a phenomenal growth for Roanoke which bears out its name
of Magic City. The Virginian opened up a direct line to
Charleston, \V. Va., and thence another route to the central
slates and lake territory, and developed a new coal field contingent to Roanoke. Also it afforded transportation facilities
to the south side of Virginia which had long lain dormant for
lack of such facilities. Now with its improved method of
transportation, the time on freight movements are to be further
reduced and the city of Roanoke is again receiving favorable
~ervice_ ai1d ~d':'e~ising. Certainly Roanoke city is fortunate
m having w1thm its corporate limits the wonderful facilities
furnished by its transportation lines.

By MRS. LUCIAN H. COCKE, Past President
OHN NOLAN, Landscape Architect of Cambridge,
Massachusetts, as a part of his report made in 1907,
has this to say of Roanoke:

J

"The people of Roanoke have much to take satisfaction in.
Channingly situated on a high plateau a thousand feet above
the sea, the city is surrounded at a convenient distance by
th~ glorious peaks of the Blue Ridge and Alleghany Mountains: the climate is unusually agreeable, the summers cool,
the winters mild the air always invigorating. The center of
the ~ity is well ~dapted for business, and . the outskirts are as
admirably fitted for beautiful and refreshing homes.
''Both for manufacturing and recreation the Roanoke
River makes its indispensable contribution. The famous
Crystal . Spring, gushing. f.rom solid rock at th~ base of Mill
Mountain, yields five m1lhon gallons of sparkling pure water
each day-enough to supply double the pre~ent papula!ion of
the .Present city. Stand1.ng on !OP of ¥111 Mountain and
lookmg down upon the city !lnd 1t.s magm~cent surroundings
as upon a relief map, one 1s easily convmccd that here is
yet an opportunity to build a city that ~hall be practical, convenient and appropriately beautiful, w1t.h ade9uate provision
for the invigoration and refreshment of its entire population."

It was a pleasing picture of retrospect and promise. Much
of the promise has been fulfilled, or is now in the making.
It is easily realized that only one with an intimate knowledge of the evolution o f this section of Virginia can appreciate the transformation that had taken place since the v illage of
Big Lick of the earl y '80s, and the throbbing City of Roanoke
in 1906, when the ·women's Civic Betterment Club of R oanoke
undertook to lend a helping hand in improving civic conditions.

The city had grown so rapidly that its busy citizens had, t o a
great extent, overlooked the inadequacies of village conditions
to cope with the requirements of city necessities.
Lack of many of the necessary facilities incident to the
growth and future development of the city were best known
to the mothers o f its future citizens. They realized the results, or rather the lack of satisfacrory results, that came from
the crowded conditions of our public schools, and each day
they were witnesses to the almost tragic conditions that surrounded the city market, and aiso knew that to obtain a satisfactory solution of the health problem, it was essential that a
bureau uf health should be established with a competent health
officer at its head.
It was under these circumstances, and in order to bring
about a la rger and more active civic spirit, that meant improvement in every department of our city life, that the Women's
Civic Betterment Club was formed, and within a few weeks
was functioning with no little efficiency. In their efforts to
provide for th e betterment of market and health standards,
they threaded every avenue of approach that would lead to
the accomplishment of the things that they knew were essential
to the growth and proper development of the living conditions
in the city. T heir efforts met with prompt response from
those immediately responsible for the city's affairs. Their

�[ 36 ]

cause needed no argument. The facts were plain to all, and
the bad conditions were admitted.
The thing needed was a popular and prevailing demand
that would OYercome official inertia, and within the short
period of two years many o f the things for \.vhich the women
had pleaded had been accomplished and a new standard of
civic development had been established \Yhich has been a substantial factor in the continued growth of our home city.
O ne other thing, however, was g reatly upon the m inds
of the women of the Civic Betterment Club. They wanted,
not only that their children should have the benefit of heallhful conditions and reasonable and appropriate school faci lities,
but they thought that they were entitled to be r eared under
beautiful environments. A City Beautiful was in their minds
something worth working for, and their thought was that
under proper conditions it was no more expensive to build a
beautiful city than it was to permit an ugly one, like T opsy,
just to grow up.
Our members realized that in order to accomplish this
purpose it was necessary to secure studies and plans which
could o nly be developed by a landscape architect, and sought
from the City Council the funds to meet this expense, and
although the authorities had been responsive and generous in
meeting most of the proposals suggested by our association,
t hey did not see their way clear to appropriate funds which
were doubtless needed for other pressing necessities o f the
city, and hence the financial burden of accomplishing the purpose was assumed by the club. To satisfy their determination
that R oanoke should have the best plans for future civic development. they employed Mr. John Nolan, Cambridge, Mass.,
to make a surYey and with accompan ying suggestions for developmen t, bu t to do this the money to cover the expense had
to be raised.
The Jamestown Exposition was closing and they conceived the idea of bringing some of the exhibits from that
splendi d collection as a basis for a Southwest V irginia Fall
Festival in R oanoke. This festival proved to be a distinct
success and drew from all parts of the Southwest enthusiastic
visitors, and the financial returns were sufficient to meet the

T

1926

expenses incident to the landscape work. It is not inappropriate to say that this report was the first of its kind in this
country, and became the technical foundation of this class of
d istinct city planning.
\Vith becoming modesty ~n&lt;l some ceremony these plans
were presented to the City Council. They _w ere graciously
receiYed and safely deposited in the city's archives. It has
been the source of sincere regret that more active work has
not been done looking forward to carrying out the plans thus
presented. Though at this time we have the belief that there
is a real desire on the part of our people that the plans then
prepared shall again receive serious consideration, and that
many of the suggestions therein made will finally be carried
fonvard to completion.
Today city planning is becoming a part and parcel of the
development of all progressive communities in this country,
and the women of R oanoke feel with some degree of pride
that they were able to make a contribution towards the development of ideas which have now been accepted ·as a necessary element in civic work, and have made their contribution
to the growth of the tiny acorn which has grown into the
spreading oak-a city of health, prosperity and good cheer.
It, however, needs the finish in~ touch of the Nolan plans
to carry it further forward in its civic development, and this
we believe is the judgment of our public-spirited and progressive citizenship. I sometimes wonder if the women will
be too big or too timid to say, "I told you so."
After years of continued service, the 'Women's Civic Betterment Club became a unit of the Chamber of Commerce.
It was determined, however, that this union did not bring
about the best results and later the civic activities of the women were organized under the auspices o f the vVoman's Club.
It now cooperates closely with the Chamber of Commerce
and all other organizations which have progress and development as an outstanding purpose.
This club, the granddaughter o f the old Civic Betterment
Club. is the outstanding woman's organization in Roanoke. and
much o f its success is due to its efficient president, Mrs.
Charles A. Ball.

who have raised the standard of' instruction in music. This

association was instrumental in bringing about the credits received in music in the public schools. These members have
round table discussions, and compare teaching methods, both
of which are proven to be most beneficial.
The Mendelssohn Choral Club, a mixed chorus, and the
Cathrop 01oral Oub, a. men's organization, both under capable leadership, have given fin e programs of a high standard.
Many smaller organizations, such as bands, choruses,
stringed quartets, trios and glee clubs have sprung into existence the past few years, not only in the city, but in schools
such as Virginia, H ollins, Daleville, Radford and R oanoke
colleges, and also in the public schools of the city.
The Music Memory contests in the public schools have
helped to develop an interest in good music among the school
children.

H O EMAK E R once wrote a beautiful poem about a· sailor,
lost in the deserts of A rabia, and tonnented unto death
by thirst. The agony of the poor man endured until at
last, carried on by sheer grit and determination, he came to
the scorched walls of the City of Muscat. Upon recovering,
in his gratitude• to Providence, he vowed to dig a well by the
side of the road, and thus afford every passerby an opportunity to assuage his thirst. Here he sat on his porch through
the after years, and praised God when he was able by these
means to give comfort to weary travelers and their beasts.
But when one passed unappreciative of its benefits, he sighed,
a nd shook his head.

S

And when a wayfarer, weary a nd bot,
Kept to the mid- road, pausing not
For the well's refreshing, he shook his head :
"He knows not the value of water," he said;
"Had he prayed for a drop, as I have done,
I n t he desert circle of sand and sun,
He would d rink and rest, and go home to tell
That God's best gift is the wayside well."

Crystal Spring, which bubbles out from under the base of
Mill Mountain, in Roanoke, may truly have been called, in
the early days of the Colony, a gift of Providence. That for
some reason God smiled on this shining valley does seem in
evidence, when one bears in mind that here is this· cool, life-

giving stream, flow ing out from the unknown for many centuries, and in its magnitude now affording sufficient water,
a nd that of the best, for nearly the entire city of 80,000 inhabitants. And that, in early days when deer came here to
the salt lick, a water of unsurpassed delight flowed hard by.
Man and beast, then, loved the spot, and early colonial tradition ·tells us of it.
vVater ebbing in this spring is cold as ice the year round,
and comes from no one knows where, except that it flows out
from beneath the mountain. Engineers say that the entire
base of the mountain is situated over a great lake, and that
this is its only above-ground outlet. However this may be,
it has been as it is now since the earliest of Indian traditions,
long before the white man came. Now, since the frontiersman who knelt and drank eagerly at its brink has faded into
the pages of histories, this water of Crystal Spring refreshes
his descendants in Roanoke.
With this in view, water reserve capable of development
has been located by the Roanoke \i\Tater 'vVorks Company at
other spots beside Crystal Spring, for, to tell the truth, this
is a valley of springs. There is Music Sp1;ng, River Spring,
Smith Spring, and Falling Creek Reservoir. all capable of reit'lforcing the water supply vvhen Crystal Spring becomes
inadequate.

Gateway To The

GREAT
By

JUNIUS

OANOKE CITY is the eastern gateway to Southwest
Virginia, frequently hailed as "The Mountain Empire." Roanoke's proximity to the Great Southwest
is a real factor in this city's remarkable growth. Roanokers.
like to refel" to their city as "The Magic City," but, when all
is said and done, little magic has been required to bring remarkable growth to a city situated so close to a section which
has developed as rapidly as has the Southwest.
Roanoke's ties with the Southwest have been very close
indeed. Business from the Southwest flows naturally into
and through Roanoke, particularly since Roanoke is the largest city in the ·western half of the State. The Norfolk and
Western and the V irginian Railroads, tapping almost the
whole of the Southwest section, are responsible for at least
a part of this drift of the Southwest's business to Roanoke.
Roanoke claims as its citizens large numbers of men and
women who formerly resided in the counties to the west of
us. Roanoke, a young city, has drawn its population from
many sources, but the Southwest has furnished this city with
probably more citizens than any other section of this State.
Accordingly, personal ties-ties of kinship and of friend ship
- have brought Roanoke into a very close relationship with
Southwest Virginia as a whole.
Roanokers appreciate fully the great possibilities for
gro wth in Southwest Virginia, and Roanokers know that the
growth of their own city depends to no little extent on the
growth of the Southwest section. Accordingly, Roanokers, in
their annual Booster trips, have visited the Southwest much
more frequ ently than any other one section of the State.
Roanokers, for the same reasons, have co-operated fully with
Southwestern Virginia, Inc., the highly successful sectional
chamber of commerce which is doing so much to stimulate
"progress in the Southwest and to advertise the Sou.thwest's
advantages to the world. Roanoke's ties are not exclusively
with the Southwest, and Roasoke has always appreciated its
contacts with the VaUey, the Southside, Piedmont Vi rginia,
and with other sections. Accordingly, R oanoke has avoided
a sectional point of view and has boasted more of the fact
that it is in Virginia than of the fact that it is in any particular section of V irg inia. :'\Tevertheless, Roanoke's ties with
the South are probably the closest ties we have had or will
have, and Roanoke's future is squarely linked with the future
of the Southwest.
Roanokers have every reason to expect great things of
their neighbors in the Southwest. In few spots on earth are
there such possibilities for diversified development. The
Southwest is certain to develop industrially. 1 o part of \ "irginia has finer water power. The Southwest can boast of
vast areas of coal, both bituminous and anthracite. The Southwest has mineral deposits in great abundance, including iron,
copper, zinc, arsenic, lead and many others. The Southwest
has splendid lumber resources. The Southwest likewise has

R

P.

F ISHBURN

as fine a supply of Anglo-Saxon workers as can be found anywhere in the country; her men and women must be counted
as the greatest of the Southwest's assets. Tremendous industrial development of this section is assured; it is already
under way, and it will spread by leaps and bounds.
The agricultural and industrial assets of the Southwest
are mentioned first, purposely and deliberately. The Southwest is too of ten referred to as a vast undeveloped playground. It is true that this section has every reason to expect
a great influx of tourists and health-seekers. The climate,
the scenery and the history of this section, all appeal to travelers. But in our enthusiasm for developing a vast tourist
industry, some of us in Southwest Virginia sometimes forgt-t
the great agricultural and industrial possibilities of this section. \ Vithout any tourist business whatever, the Southwest
has every reason to expect wealth and prosperity. On the
other hand, without any agricultural or industrial development whatever, the Southwest might expect renown and riches
through its appeal to tourists. \ Vhen the several types of
deYelopment go hand in hand, as they seem certain to do,
certainly the Southwest faces an inspiring future. \Vhere
else in the whole New South is there such a chance for wellrounded development? Some sections of the South are already highly industrialized, but none of these sections have
any great tourist appeal. Some sections of the South have
already made a great business of attracting and entertaining
tourists, but rarely if ever can these great tourist centers
promise at the same time great industrial development.
The Southwest offers to the tourist a great variety of
mountain and valley scenery. Its mountainous sections are
unsurpassed in beauty even by the Great Smokies of Tennessee and \!\f estern North Carolina. The a utomobile ride
through the valley from Roanoke to Bristol along the famous
Lee Highway rivals in beauty and charm the trip through the
world-famous Shenandoah Valley to the north of Roanoke.
The Southwest boasts of many natural curiosities; chief among
these is the Tatural Tunnel, an attraction which, though little
advertised, rivals V irginia's N'atural Bridge in grandeur. In
the Southwest counties are many mineral springs. which offer
better health to those who visit these places. The Southwest
is likewise steepecf in historic tradition, and those historicallyminded folks who come to Virginia to visit our historic shrines
will find dozens of places in the Southwest of scarcely less
importance than the shrines in Eastern and Xorthern \ -irginia
and in the Valley. In the Southwest, the tourist will find excellent climate, good roads, magnificent scenery, dozens of
historical attractions. and aboYe all, true \ -irginia hospitalit\.
The Southwest, then, has every reason to expect a man~'­
sided development. Roanoke is proud of its position as the
Southwest's leading city, and R oanokers expect certain prosperity to come in the wake of the present rapid de\"dopment
of the Southwest's vast re:'ources.

NEW Y. W. C. A. BUILDING
0 adequately house the growing work of the
Young Women's Christian Association of
Roanoke, Virginia, a new building is planned
by the firm of Eubank and Caldwell, which will be
erected the coming year at the southwt:st corner of
Franklin Road and Henry Street. Three stories will
be built now as the first unit, and the walls will carry
an additional two stories which can be built to meet
the future n eeds o f the association.
This building will contain a large and beautiful
lounge with a fireplace at one end, and the information desk at the other end, with a g rand staircase
opposite the main entrance. There will be offices,
club rooms, an assembly room with stage and dressing rooms, a cafeteria with private dining room adjoining, gymnasium, swimming pool, and the necessary showers and lockers. T he residence quarters
will provide for transients and a limited number of
permanent boarders will also be accommodated.

When the organization was first effected a house was
purchased at 415 R oanoke Street, S .vV., through the
g enerosity of interested friends, and last year it was sold
for three times wh at it cost, the p roceeds m aking possible
the purchase o f a more central and desirable building site.
A building ca mpa ig n was h eld in May, 1926, and the
goal of $150,000 was almost reach ed. It is estimated
that the building with the necessary furni shings will cost
approximately that amount. M rs. Joh n 0 . Boyd is the
president of the association, Miss M. Belle Jeffery is the
general secreta ry, and M r. E . R. Joh nson is the chairman of the building committee.

THE Y. M. C. A.
Since the association was organized over thirteen years ago
it has provided educational and gymnasium classes, recreational and social features, aided girls in finding employment,
and not only housed many, but also referred others to r egistered private homes where they have been accornmodated with
room and board. Thousands of girls and young women have
been h elped and benefited by the association, and have learned
to live broader lives and also to be of service to others because of the altruistic spirit fostered by the leaders of the
Y. w. c. A.
More than 1,600 girls ·were included in the Y . "\ill . C. A .
activities the past year. These include the young women in
business and industry, as well as the younger girls who are
in grade and high school and whose activities center around
the program of the Girl R eserves.

R oanoke has al\\"ays been mindful of the uplift of its
young men, and not the least among its institutions work·-ing
toward this end is the Y. M . C. A . Here more than anywhere else in the city, opportunity is afforded visiting young
men, or strangers employed in the city, an opportunity to
m ingle with the best of companionship which the city enjoys,
and partake of physical and mental development as well. The
gymnasium, swimming pool. and other recreative pastimes
offered can be enjoyed to the full . and athletic sports are
encouraged. The membership compises young men of all
classes and occupations, and equal standing is given to all.
Situated in the heart of the city, its location is especiallv
favorable for development, and within the last few years
has doubled and quadrupled its membership.

ome-®wning City

H om e of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Fishbu rn

Roanoke is a city of 75,000 people, 60 per cent o f whom
are home owners. Situated as it is, where the two hard
surfaced roads of the Roanoke and Shenandoah Valleys converge, where two main lines of railroads, the Norfolk and
Western and the Virginian, run east and west, and the Shenandoah Valley and the Roanoke Southern Rail ways run north
and south, she nestles like a gem in the midst of the A lleghany and Blue R idge Mounta ins, surrounded by hea lth
resorts.
Many reasons made her population a home-owning citizenry; hers is a prosperous community because thirty million
dollars are paid out in wages and salaries yearly which enable
her people to buy homes and pay for them. Her pa triotic and
wide-awake realtors build and sell these homes on a small
cash payment and monthly paymen ts to suit the salary or
wages of their clients. There have been instances where a
realtor has built a nice cozy home, put a loan on it, sold it to a
Norfolk and Western forema n for five thousand dollars, two
hundred cash and thirty-five dollars a month, and every dollar
was paid on these homes without a default, and the purchase rs
became proud and happy home owners, free from debt. By
the time the home was paid for there were t wo or three bright,
tow-head tots playing around the front yard, which is covered
with blue grass sod and flanked on each side with a bank of
gorgeous flowers. Among the wealthier classes there are
hundreds of stately mansions.
Moreover, the home owning spirit is not confined to the
white people alone; a large percentage of the colored people
are home owners. One peculiar thing about them is the fact
that one seldom hears of one selling his home either voluntarily or by foreclosure.

P hoto by Da vis.

There is no influence so potent for the making of good
citizens as the owning of their own homes; they are then an
integra l part of the community ; interested in the civic government and in the moral uplift of its citizens by educational
and church influences.
Roanoke, lying on the banks o f the Roanoke R iver at the
foot o f th e A lleghany and Blue R idge Mountains, is composed of a happy, prosperous and law-abiding people, because
they la rgely own their own homes.
The site o f Roanoke city seems to have been selected by
nature; it was used by animals, recognized by Indians, adopted
by emmigrants from the East and No rth as a meeting place,
and claimed by earlier and later citizens whose vision and
great good common sense followed the lead of Providence
and for many reasons found an ideal spot on which to build
a great city. The territorial pedigree of Roanoke County is
curious. S he is a direct daughter of Botetourt County, having been born in 1838. Botetourt was carved in 1769 from
the great empire which used to be Augusta County, the limits
o f which extended to the Mississippi River. In the Court
H ouse of F incastle may be found a deed recording the building of a jail in whi ch it states that "this jail is built for the
people on this side of the Mississippi R iver, as those in the
County beyond the Mississippi must build a jail for themselves." While the V alley Turnpike was not fini shed until
1852 nor the present main line of the Norfolld and \l\Testern
Railway was not completed until 1855, the Roanoke Valley
was always the home of wealth and culture.

Virginia Mineral Springs
One of the Resorts Near Roanoke
HE journey to ::vlineral Springs is short and easy, less
than an hour·s motor travel from Roanoke. Speeding
bYj motor through farm dotted valleys up rolling hills,
with each moment, one feels the invigoration of drier, cooler
air, scented by perfume of mountain laurel and flow ering
rhododendrons.
Tradition has it that the magic waters of the V irginia
Mineral Springs have been famous since the Indians roved
the Alleghany ranges. Tribes of Appalachians, so the legend
goes, discovered this natural playground with its magic
springs. Their medicine men are reported to have done wonders with its restorative waters. This water is offered guests
daily at the Virginia Mineral Springs H otel, which is famed
far and wide fo r dispensing forth to guests the Old Dominion
hospitality.
F our of these natu ral springs- W hite Sulphur, L ithia,
Iron, and Arsenic- are so close together that they are sheltered and enclosed l?Y a pavilion. All are located but a short
walk! from the hotel.

T

Whatever may be the traveler's favo rite outdoor sport, he
is pretty sure to find it here. There are tennis courts which
inspire the desire for exercise; ·a w.ell kept nine hole golf
cou rse, growing soon to eighteen holes, will delight the golfer.
Easy paths and mountain trails for the equestrian abound;
horses are available at nearby stables. A modern bath-house
and a splendid swimming pool provide fo r the novice and
the expert. Rowing, canoeing and all kinds of water sports
are available.
Here is. indeed a vacation resort. The average temperature for spring is SS degrees, for summe.r 74 degrees, for
autumn 62 deg rees, and for winter 40 degrees. The air is
soft and dry, permitting strenuous exercise without fatigue.
There a re no "best" months. May and June with their laurel,
September and October with their days of following the
hounds in quest of the fox; nights of music and entertainment- all these abound at Virginia Mineral Springs.

�~oanoke, eenter of c!l-ndustr y
By B. F. MOOMAW
OAN OKE is frequently spoken of a s " The 1fagic
City." It is a beautiful name and we like it, but Roanoke did not spring into being by the ·mere waving of
a Fairy's wand. Roanoke is the city it is because of its strategic location, and has numbered, and still numbers among
its 65,000 inhabitants, a great many men and women of wisdom and forethought .
Roanoke is somet imes called a railroad community. Vl/e immediately recognize the great importance of our two splendid
transportation companies, the Norfolk and 'Western, and th~·
V irginian. W e could not be Roanoke without them. The
coming of the railroad, with particular reference to promotion
of the Shenandoah Valley, now an important part of the
Norfolk and W estern System, marked the real beginning of
the city.
The greatest single industrial factor of the city is the Norfolk and Western Railroad, of which R oanoke is the home.
Roanoke, however, is now more than a railroad town. It is
an industrial center of great importance to the State and
South.
T he following are several important prime factors necessary to the successful establishment and operation of industry
here, which have created this great industrial center:
1. Transportation. Roanoke's two trunk line railroads,
going in every direction of the compass, offer industry transI&gt;ortation facilities equal to any community. In travel of
Passenger or freight, Roanoke is in close proximity to the
great markets of the North, East, South and Middle W est.
It is accessible by transportation to great supplies of raw
lll~terial , and agricultural products of this section and all of
Virginia. The great bituminous coal fields of Virginia and
':'est Virginia, the cotton fields of Virginia and the sta tes to
he south, and lumber and iron resources, are at hand. .
2. Power. The city's electric lighting and power servict&gt;

R

is furnished by hydro-electric power and steam stations,
possessing a combined capacity of many thousands of horsepower.
Both electric lighting and power rates compare favorably
with those prevailing throughout the South.
A high tension transmission line on steel towe1:s, and having a capacity of 20,000 horsepower, comes from base power
plants at the coal mines in ·west V irg inia. A simila r line comes
from a large hydro-electric plant on James R iver. These lines ·
are part of a super-power project, which, in addition.to power
from former plants, gives Roanoke a great supply of electric
power for industrial purposes.
3. Labor. A most important factor in industrial development is an adequate supply of efficient labor. The industries
of R oanoke have secured locally, without advertising, all of the
labor required, and there is yet left in this general vicinity
sufficient for a much greater industrial development in the
future.
Our labor is native-born American, and easily becomes
effi cient. Roanoke is free fro m labor disturbances. T here is
found here a most cordial relationship between employer and
employee.
4. Climate.. There is a direct relation between climate and
industrial operation. The climate of Roanoke and vicinity is
delightful the entire year. Industrial operation is not hampered by severe heat in summer or severe cold in winter.
The city has a number of industries making a great variety
of products. Our industry is quite diversified, consequently
there is a lack of competition in labor or product. From one
end of the city to the other one can see and hear the wheels
of industry busy with thousands of employees releasing products of much value.
Roanoke is the proud possessor of the largest Rayon

Between the strength of a small cotton twine and the massive locomotive, both of which are made here, there stretches
a wide diversity of industry. Roanoke also manufactures, in
the largest plant of the kind in the world, the silk which goes
to make milady's handsome gown and many other articles for
the person and home. Cars of coal, freight and passengers,
bridges and structural steel for the skyscraper, pig iron, metal

garments, gloves, hats, silos, novelties, vinegar, canned fruits
and vegetables, bakery products, tramways, proprietary
medicines, oxygen for metal work-all are manufactured in
Roanoke. Roanoke's industries also include armature winding, industrial machine shops and electric welding.
The more recent industrial developments in Roanoke include a large add ition to the plant of the Rayon mill, which
cost approximately $3,000,000; a plant for manufacturing
oxygen for metal work; a knitting mill for women's underwear; a potato waffle factory for the manufacture of a new

The hospitality of the Virginia Mountaineer was exhibited
last winter when a dashing young bridal couple motoring from
~ew York to Miami, Florida, were caught in a terrific storm
in the mountains. An old mountaineer, no doubt a moonshiner, invited them to the shelter of his cabin. The hospitality
was echoed by his tall, gaunt, blind wife. "Tuk a cheer and
set down," she greeted; then felt her way to the tall mantle
above the big fireplace and securing her snuff box, held it
in the direction of the New York! girl, and said: "Won't ye'

the guest, striving not to wound the kindly impulse. "\Vhy ?"
questioned the blind woman. "Have ye' quit?" "Yes," quickly
replied the girl. "\Vaal," as she stirred a stick toothbrusl-6 in

H E labo r conditions 111 the Roanoke district are unexcelled in any section of the United States.
\ V'ith an ideal climate which permits outdoor work
to proceed the entire year without undue interference or rapid
tempera tu re changes, this location makes an ideal section in
which to live and work, being blessed with an abundance of
m ountain spring water and a very healthy climate. Roanoke
is s urrounded in a ll directions with health resorts, some of
which are world famed.
The labor supp ly is adequate for present and future demands a nd d rawn mainly from the mountains and valleys,
chiefly living in the same vicini ty for many generations back.
The imported or foreign laborer is practically unknown,
as t he district readily supplies all its O\\'n labor. both skilled
and unskilled, without the necessity of importation. Negro
labor is at hand, and is u sually intelligent, stable, and reliable,
reflecting the spirit of the district in which they live.
During the la te war the government sent to this disti;ct,
as m ost others, agencies fo r the purpose of fostering Americanization and the spirit and purpose of citizenship among the
foreign born. T hey were amazed to find that these were not
enough in number to form a single class. The occasional foreign fam ily who do d rift in are readily assimilated and soon
lose th eir distinctive social characteristics.

T

One of the largest indust ries in R oanoke was so canvassed, with the result that but three parties of foreign
parentage were found to be employed, and these were salaried
officials 0£ that company, here since their youth.
A plentifu l supply of workers in building and metal trades
is always at h and.
T he field is particularly fertile and inviting for such industries as might employ textile and furniture workers. The
average worker is healthy, intelligent and reliable, and can be
readily and quickly trained to suit the needs of any industry,
as has been proven by one industry employing several thousand workers in the manu facture of a technical product requiring particu lar t ra in ing. the industry being entir&lt;.&gt;ly new to
the State of Virginia.
T he labor coming from farms and rural districts provides
a permanent and elastic source of supply, furnishing industry
with help wh en needed, and absorbing back into the farms

Labor troubles are conspicuous for their absence, and
many of our industries have never experienced trouble of this
n ature. Employers, realizing they are treating with the most
loyal and intelligent labor to be found anywhere, are careful
o f their comfort and well-being.
·
H ome owners comprise a large percentage of the married
workers. In one representative industry home owners comp rise one-half of the total of such workers. Many are located
in the country and suburbs, and oftentimes include small acreage of tillable land. Such homes and surroundings make for
a happy, conten ted b ut ambitious people.
T he housing facilities are adequate, and are kept well
abreast of any demand. Real estate values are reasonable,
allowin g the thrifty worker to readily become a home owner.
Roanoke is the hub of a vast agricultural and grazing
co~try, and as such becomes a ready market and sh ipping
pomt fo r their p roducts. This creates low living costs, which
fir st attract and then h old the worker.
T he school facili ties and educational standards are both
ample and high and this together with the high moral standard
and excellent health conditions make an ideal condition for
rearing of families.

McAFEE'S KNOB

In 1746, 300 acres of land were granted James McAfee.
Sr., in Catawba Valley on the north side of "McAfee's Knob."
An old block house was built on this land for the safety of the
inhabitants against the Indians. The logs bore many bullet
holes, evidence of its use for defense.
A raid was made by the Delaware and Mingo Indians on
this settlement in 1764, and every member of every family
was either murdered or taken prisoner, homes burned, and
stock driven off. Captain Paul of Fort D inwiddie heard of
this raid and with twenty men set out in pursuit. They located about midnight a band of these Indians on N ew River;
all were asleep except those watching the prisoners that were
taken at Catawba. Captain Paul, not knowing the prisoners
were there, fired into the midst, killing three Indians, and the
others took flight. They rushed forward to capture some of
the fleeing redmen. Seeing a woman and thinking she was
an Indian squaw, one of the party raised his tomahawk, but
just as it was about to descend, Captain Paul threw himself
between the assailant and his v ictim, exclaiming, "It's a shame
By and large Roanoke and its contiguous territory is a

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

�After your Advisory Committee, as a body and individually. ha s had
opportunity to consider the R eport, I should he glad to have a full and
frank expression of opinion, so that I may correct any mis takes or mi s unde1standings that had crept in and modify the R e port as m&lt;1y seem best
for publication. Often, I kno\Y, there are loca l condition s that m a k e
changes advisable. In arranging to print, I s hould he pl eased to be
consu lted early as to the form and character of th e R e port. for I hcli e\·e
I can help you make it serve its purpose more s uccessfull y . I can assist
you some \\"hat in deciding upon the best size for reproducing tlie plans
(p robably about one-fourth present size), the method lo folio\\· with regard
to th e photographic an d Other iJlustrations, etc., &lt;.'tC'. ()j' C' Oll l"SC. you
,rill appreciate th e importance of the illustratiYc material and the necessity• of havino·
it as full. clear, and attractiYe as possible. Th e Re1&gt;ort
0
itseJf should be \·aluable as an influence upon publi c opinion in Roanoke.
and at the same time a creditable handbook to lcgiti matel,v advertise
the city and its plans for the future outside. Before the H e por't is printed
perhaps more defin ite name. could be adopted for the P arks and Playgrounds.
I enclose an expression of opinion upon th e st reet nam es \\·hich may
seem to you \\"Orthy of cons ideration. .\t first I intend ed to include it
in the R eport, but it seemed scarcely important eno ug h for that.
I do not kno\\" ho''" rapidly you may \\·is h to proceed, nor how important an element
time is, but ])lease note that I have a 1&gt;rofess ional eno·ao·ch
h
ment that wi ll take me to Southern California about a 111011l11 from no\r,
and that I shall not return until about the middle of N overn her. Some
time in Septembe r, however. probauly early in the month, I expect to
make a trip to Philadelphia. and if you "·is h , I can arrange lo visit Roanoke
at the same time.
I have written to the engineers. ~I essrs. Erncrs o11 and \\' hilm an .
asking them to prepare their re port as earl,r as C'onvenic nt. but nothing
has come from them yet. It seems to me important for you to get their
report 110\\" as soon as possible. It is al so des irabl e lo take ste ps at once
to\\"ard the preparation of an accurate topographi cal s urvey of Roanoke
and the surrounding sections under cons ide ration.
Permit me to thank your Ad visory Committee. :\[r. Ba tes, and th e

August 27, 1907.
To the Committee 011 Civic lmprouenient.
Roanoke, T'irginia.
Uentlemen :- The problem that confronts the people of Roan oke. in
the solution of which you have asked m y cooperation, is no less than the
remod eling of the existing city and the moulding of the larger area around
it so that both may better serve present and future generations. 'fhe
task is not an eas)r one. It inYolves an int imate knowledge of the e\·olution ol' t he present city of R oanoke and as \Yise as possible a forecasting
of its l'ulure; a firm hold upon fundamental principles of cit.Y making
genern lly; un acquaint a nce \Yith t he experience an d actual achic\'ements
of other cities, and a capacity to discriminate- to select from a number
of poss ible co urses of action the one t hat is, all things considered. unquestionably be. t. ~IorcoYer. it demands imagination. courage. and public
spirit.
R oanoke is one of the first cities of relatiYely small population to
plun for its future in a bus inesslike. co mprehe nsive manner. In this it
shows its progressiveness. Large cities throughout the land, from one
end of thC' country lo the other. a.re acli\'ely at work. They a re endeaYoring lo eorrccl the mislnkes of the past, to escape lhe inheritance of their
short-sigh ted predeces ors, and to do what i&lt;&gt; still possible to provide
adeciuatcly fo r the imperatin• needs or large populations. nut few of
the small e r cities yet realize that their position today is similar lo that
of the large cities a ge neration ago; that they arc to be t he large cities of
tomorrO\\'. and that hy taking thought they may axoid many of the difficulties and much of the expense t hat these larger cit ies must n o\\' meet.
Roanoke js awa kc. I ts cit iz-:cns seem l o renli r.e that the cit\' is toda\'
in a trnnsilion stage, that it has outgrown its plan and its rnclh~d just ..
clea l'ly as a healthy child outgrO\\'S iL clothe-. During the nexl decade

The City Plan

Underlying a ll suggestions for improvement is the city plan. It
determines every la rge question-t he ch aracter of the street arrangement.
the location of main thoroughfares. the separation and treatment of areas
for manufacturing, for retail business, for homes and recreation. It
should, of cou rse. be based upon t h e topograph y . and while taking into
account t he present street arrangement. it should be bold to depart fron1
it whe n necessary. The street plan of R oanoke is irregular, as indeed
it should be fo r a city with a Yariation of one hundred and eighty feet
in it::; elevatio n and with t h e Roanoke River and severa.l creeks running
through i t. Its irregul a rily, howeve r, is n ot based upon these topogra phical features, hut often upon ha phazard a rrangement and upon
th e interests of pri vate individuals a nd real estate C"ompanies. The res ult
is an inconvenient, \\·astcfu l ground plan. the cYils of wl1i C'h are ::drea&lt;ly
ap parent. A fruitful com p arison can h e m ade "·ith the city p lan. of
'Vas hington , D. C .. and " "illiamsburg. Yirginia. The fo rmer was adopted
when the city had a popu lation of less th a n 3.000, and the latter in 1699.
when th e popu.l at ion must have been even srn a ller.
T o impron• Lhe plan of the city I recommend t o your co nsidNation
the following changes. (See General Plan for the Remodelling of
Roa noke.)
1. The " ·idening of J efferson Street , sou th of 'l'a zewell An•nue. to
a width of one hundred feet. J effer on Street is now sixty feet wide. but
as iL is the main st reet running north and so uth. C'arryinu· two car trncks.
an d wil.1 he used in creasingly a s a rcta il business street. this width is i 11suffieien t. At th e present timC' there is scarcely a huil&lt;ling on .Jefferson St reet
soulh of T azewell AYenue within twC'nty fr&lt;'l of t h e strC'ct. so that the
proposed widening would im·olve the purchase by the C"ity of no expC'nsin:'
property .

�II. Provisions for Business

It is a, grave mistake to look upon c1nc improvement as concerned
nJain ly, or even primarily, \Yith beauty: at least if by beauty is meant
m erely a 11 ag reeable and pleasin g a ppearance- " \\' hat is fair must first
be :fit." Scrv icea hleness, as well as charm , use as well as beauty, must
always be secured. " 'ithout one city life is inefficient; without the other
sordid and commonplace.
Both are esse ntial.
Therefore cornprehensi\'e and definite provision should b e made for Lhc business of Hoanoke
- its retail s lorcs . its manufacturing and its bus in ess as a municipality.
At present, the ce nter of retail busin ess i at or near the inter cc-tion
of Jefferson treet and Campbell _.\yen ue, spreading gradually outh and
west. Natural as thi s general center is, it lacks lhat emp ha i and accessibili ty that are n eeded to insure it rea sonable permanency. The changes
in the City Plan , already recommended, form a triangle of s treetsCamphcll .\ venue. J efferson Street and the new Trade treet- that would
afford ample and agreeable facilities for the retail bu ines of Roanoke
for mnny year· lo come : and the increased acce s ibility of this section.
due to the thoughtful development of thoroughfares. without as well as
\\"ithin th e city, " ·otild add elements of Yalue and co1wenieuce to both
buyer a n d :::;c ll cr.

The m anufacturing and wholesale esta hli shments of Roanoke are
s ilualcd mainly ca:s l and w est of the cil~· along ll1c Roanoke 11,iYe r, or in
close prox imity to the railroad (see Genera] J&gt;ln n) . These are natural
:ind hnppy s itualions . T'hey afford wide and a dmirable facilities for all
sorts of manufaC't uring. \Yhich are being rapid!~· utili ~cd with the gro,,·th
of lhe eitv.*

H ollins this would be primarily a pleasure ground: (5) northeast to Coyners;
(6) south into Fra nklin County. The m a in changes wou ld be to make
t hese roads wider t han at present. ranging from fifty to one hundred and
ten feet or more according to the demands upon them, a nd, where necessary . to reYise t heir lines a nd improYe thei r grades. Some might remain
dirt roads; others would he macademizecl or paved. The treatment
naturally \\·otild be in accordance with th e character of the road and
the use th at \Hts lo b e made of it. Those that were likely to h ave resid ences built a long th eir borders wou ld proYide space for sidewalks and

�mend that a vigorous and well directed effort be made to secure about
ten acres for each of the four wards of the city. I have indicated on the
General Plan the Highl and Playground near the ' Vest End School,*
the 1\tfelrose Playground (th e l\1oorman property), the Kimball Playg l'ounds (on Patton Avenue and on the Salem Boulevard), and the J efferso n Playg round (Ta:r.ewell Avenue between Tenth and Twelfth Streets.*)
In case these areas can not be obtained by the city for reasonable sums,
others in the same neighborhoods equally well adapted could be substituted. I a lso recommend that the thirty-acre level field on the south side
of the Roanoke River, about opposite rr welfth Street, S. , Y., be secured
a s a Parade Ground and R ecreation Park for fi.eld games requiring a
la,rge acreage.
l n the selection of J&gt;arks and Public Reservations. Roanoke has a
golden opportunity, one that any city in t he la nd might envy. Its rivers.
hills, and rural country. its creeks a nd the vie"·s of its surrounding mountain ridges. are sing ularly available and beautiful beyond description .
.A.n&lt;l with the exception of th e ravages of the railroa ds th ey are a yet
a lmost unspoiled for public use. I t would seem as if an obligation rested
upon the pu bli c spirited members of the presen t generation to ecure a
reasona ble share of these natural resources of the community before it is
too late an d set them apart for the public for all time to come. To this end I
rccomm~e nd the following purdiases : ( I ) lloth banks of the Roanoke
River within th e city and of Tinker Creek as indicated in the G eneral
Plan; (~) l\IilJ l\Iountain, t he sentinel that overshadows the city . It is
imperative that the people possess this mountain. both for rrcreation
purposes and because of its direct relation to the Crystal Spring and the
city's water s upply. There is an opportunity to make of it a public park
t hat will rival in beauty, charm and nilue ":\Ct. Royal " in .:\Iontreal,
kn ow n as one of the best works of Frederick La\\' Olmsted; (3) an area
of t hree h undred acres or more on the Norlh Sid e, preferably in the vi c inity
of' lhe new Country C lub. This could be developed as a rural or countr;·
park, and althoug h action \\'ith regard to it is not so urgent as in lh e case

�Conclusion

In conclusion, permit me to point out t h at t his R eport does not
profess to be a complete gu ide fo r the improvement of Roanok e. Some
points, such as a rtistic street features, th e establishm e nt of public comfor t
stations, and the abolition of grade c ross ings, have not been tou ch ed upon.
Others will be cove red in th e R eport of the Sanitary Engineers . Furthe rmore, the su bjects taken up have of n ecessity been t reated in a genera I
way. At this stage-\Yi thout topographi ca l s u rveys to work with n or a
crysta llized public op ini on to interpret. lead or folio,,·, as seems hcstthat appeared to be the most helpful th ing to do. The main recommendations, howeYer, are clear. Th ey are:
(1) 'fhe improvement of th e City Pla n hy t h e wid e ni 11g ol' J efferson Slreel and Tazewell 1\\·enue. th e extension of Pa tterson . \\·cnue.
and the opening up of a space of sui table sir,e and agreeable proportio ns
at their conj u nction .
(2) The grouping of public and sem i-public buildings on .Jefferson
Street or in the neigh horhood of ~Ia rket Sq ua re.
(3) Th e developm ent of a more ration a l arrn ngem e 11 t of city st reets
and the establishment of lh e lin es of main th orouO'h
fares with in a nd
I:&gt;
without the city.
(4) The presernttion of the most avai lalJle and beautifu l of t h e
natural landscape featul'es of the neigh borhood as a bas is for a systc- m
of parks, parkways and rese n •a tion s, a nd th e con struction of s uc h p la.,vgrouncls as ar&lt;? needed.

\Yhile Lh e city cleht of Roanoke might legally be a bout $2.000.000, it is
o nly $~&gt;-t.n.000. Thus a loan of $1.000,000 could very properly be inade.
a s all the proposed improvements a re permanent nnd will benefit fut ure
µ.·C'n&lt;'ra lions even more than the present.* The city tax is $1.00 per
$100 ; Lh c school lax 2:5 cents and lhe state' tax 35 cents, a total of $1.60
per $ 100 , based on a fair. conservati,·e Yaluation of property. Compared
with mosl other prngressiYe cities. this rate is low, and it is kno"·n that
many c iti ~ens of Roanoke \YOuld approve of raising it. The third
meth od- that or securing to the public part of the so-called unearn ed
inere mcnl. t he in creased value of a djacent real estate resulting from its
improve me nts- has been long followed in Europe and is meeting increasing favor in thi s country. It has been adopted by statute in "..\Iassac:hu setts, O hio. Pcn nsyh·ania, Con necticut. and other states. The Ohio
law. pa!':&gt;sed in 190L1, is a ty pical illustrati on. It makes provision that all
municipal corporations shall haxe the power to a ppropriate. enter upon.
and hold real estate within thei r corporate lim it for establishing espla11a.des, l&gt;ouleva rd s, parkways. park groun ds and public reservation s in,
around a ncl lead ing to puhlic buildings, and for the purpose of reselling
sueh land with reserYa ti ons in the deeds of s uch resale as lo the future
use of s uch land::;. so as to protect public buildings and their &lt;'llviro ns and to preserve the view, appeara nce. lig ht. air and usefulness
or public· grou nd occupied by public bu ild ings and esplanades and the
pa rkways leading thereto.* The purpose of t his law is n ot on l~· to en nble
the muni cipality to fa irly recoup itself in pa rt for its puhlic spirilcd exp0nditure . but also to make tha t expendilure effective.

�There are four stimulating facts to kee p in mind in con nec lio n with
the proposed improvement of Roanoke. (1) The property req uire d "·ill
never be so cheap as today . The truth or th is statement cn n be easily
tested by comparing the present value of rea l estale in Roanoke with tlwL
of twelve months ago or even of three months ago . (2 ) Once boug h t:
this property 'Yould steadily increase in Yul ue, not only a.s a matter ot
assessment, but of actual Yalue for park and othe r recreal in• purposes.
For example, consider simply the gain from the p rese rvation and µ;rowth
of t rees. (3) The whole experience in Am erican c ities is t h at parks a nd
other public grounds far more than pay the cost of the ir pu rc hase and
maintenance. (4) The mere annou ncement ol' a so und i1nprove m e nt
policy and t he appointment of a perma ne nt co mmission arc apt lo bri ng
to the city rich gifts of la nd for public use. Innumerable illus trations
could ea sily be given in support of this stateme n t.
l\1.ore than upon method and money , success i11 t h is puhl i&lt;: e nterprise will depend upon the ardor an d s piri t with "·hich it is e nte re d upon
and prosecuted.· " The Roanoke spirit " at it:s best must he invoked.
A conservative, well considered, and whol e-hearted cou rse of action mu st
be adopted a nd consistently followed if th e best results are Lo be secured.
Finally, we can take h eart in a truth that Andrew Ca.rneo-ie sa id l1ncl bee n
b
l'
one of his supports in life and which he commended to the D u nl'cnn m e
Comm ittee in the execution of their trust: " The o-ods send thread fo r a

we have had , and will
keep, these words : ''Integrity'' and ''Service' '-and in
our business dealings, these
thoughts: Not how .cheaply,
but how well, with greatest
ultimate satisfaction to the
customer. Not how hastily,
but how promptly. Not how
much profit on one job, but
how much repeated patr onage
at fair profits. Not how to
"just get by", but how to produce work on which we'll be
proud to put our imprint.
If your present printer
has sitclt ideals, good; if not,
let us show you what
you have a right
to expect

FTER many moons and seasons arc passed, afLcr Lhc long arduous

and Father Time wields his devastating scythe, our Gradunling D ays
of '25 will be remembered! "Graduation" is the Lime LhnL marks the
entrance of untried youth from lhe flowery spring Lo Lhc hard summer and winLer .
These days of flurry, bustle, and preparation for the closin g cvcnls will remai n in
our memories among our happiest. After the ha rd slrugglc for years, we have,
at last, reached our goal. Invitations, gowns, baccalaurt'alc sermo ns, banquets,
and, crowning all , commc11ccmcnt will mark the passage of several sco re o r more
souls from the portals of old J efferson Hi. Breaking with o ld friends, leaving old
landmarks, seeking out new fields-these arc some of Lh c sadder Lh ings we must
face, but wherever we go, whatever we are, success or failure, we shn ll always have
with us "mcmorics"- memorics of friends, youth, training and, last of a ll, " l\Icmories of GraduaLion Days."

CLASS HISTORY
H ! What a colossal task confronts aforesaid scri n·1wr as lw a llcmpts
lo chronicle the many am] \'aril'd achic,·emc·nLs of Liiv 'first · and lJl'st,
the Class of '25 ! Shall lhc remarkable evoluLi1111 &lt; 1f Llw Jqwly r::il lo
the lofty Senior be told, or shall fame ancl forLunt• \\'hid1 has aec(Jmpanied this class in ils four-year meteoric course be recnunlt•d? In Lhl' firsl year
of its existence the Class made a remarkable record in the alh lt·Lie fi t'ld, as n largt:
percent. of the teams were composed of men uf l he class . T he sL'l'tmd Yl'nr ma1·king the entrance of our Class into the high school bui lding. J\l thnu gh nnt. rL'ccin~d
with open am1s, we yet made an a uspicious entrance; al nncl' Sl'nding rl'prt'sl'ntatives into all literary, athletic and scholastic lines. The Class ha cl fi Vl' re presen tatives on the championship football team thal scasqn a s well as rc.::prL"senlali\·cs
on the other teams.
Then, in our Junior year our destiny as a famous class wrLs assured. \Ve were
informed that we would be the first class to graduate Crum the nt:w high school.
At once preparations \\'ere made for our great responsibility in the succcctling year.
A permanent, well knit organization was cffcclecl. The Seniors of ':q we1·c helped
in e...-ery way possible and cooperation gi\'en lhem. A big cn;nl al. this Lime was
the party gi,·en us by the Seniors and one given Lo the Sophomores by us. \ V l' hatl
five members on the championship football team, nine mcmh('rs oul uf fifteen on
the first girls' championship basket ball squad, fin: uul of LL·n nn the linys' squad
and capable representatives in other sports as well as kaclc.:rs in literary and scholastic work, ACORN, JUNIOR \VoRLD-NEWS, literary sociL"Lies, l'Lc. Then cOml's nur
last and greatest lap in our four-year course, starling &lt;ml in an L'nlircly n l·w building, with six hundred rats, new fnculty, equipment, &lt;.'LC. .'\ sLupt•111l11us Lask confronted the Class. How was oltl Hi's famous spirit, lo l&gt;c &lt;.:mlim•cl in such a large
number o( new pupils so as to perpetuate the ideals o[ citi;wnship Lhal .J cffl'rson
Hi has been handinR down Lhrough many &lt;.:lasses? How was 11ld I Ii lo lit· Lhornugh ly
organized so that the studenL life and activities wnul d nol suffL.r ? I lt&gt;w \\'as student cooperation to be fostered so that succeeding- years sh&lt;Juld pc 1
i11L lo l &lt;J2.=i as thl'
ideal year and Lhc year when big- things were done? Crl'at wen.: the opp1&gt;rlunilies,
great were Lhe responsibilities, but just as great woul&lt; I l 1e lh&lt;' rL·w:1 n I.
The Senior Class organized anew and cleared the decks frn· at·tion. :\ [r. Parsons caJlcd on the Seniors for help and cooperation in handling Llw m·w difficu l ties
and receh•cd a hearty response. Seniors took Lhc leading plun·s in tlw ol d o rganizations and soon they were in ~ood shape. The Ju:-vwR \VoRLD-:"-.f1·:ws ST.\l.. F and
the ACOR:&gt;! STAFF, composed mainly of Seniors, started on tlwir work 11f t'l'cating
influence and recounLing school life. The Literary Sncic·I ic"'. tlw Radio Club . aml

&lt;ro &gt;

�ac. o tn
the Booslcn;, unclcr Seniors, held up the standard . The Hi-Y and Girls' Club
proved vcri ta hk- f orl rcsscs, and g-i·eat was their work in creating high standards
and ideals . Oki Ili 's spirit. in athletics \\"aS again manifested with the result of a
third consccuti,·c football championship, a second consecutive girls' basket ball
championsh ip , n boys' tournament basket ball championship, and a strong team
which \\'ill make n. dctc1111ined biu for the fifth consecutive track championship .
Seniors were il'ndl'rs in all of t hese. To meet new demands three new projects were
begun mainly through instigation of Seniors. A Big Brother Club for boys, to
boost things in general, was organized. This has proven a strong factor along "-ith
the Boost.ers. Ten Sl.!niors as Sergeants-at-Amis were chosen to keep order in
assemblies. This was a great success. To begin student cooperation properly Lhe
Coopcrnt.ivc CCJuncil was organized by the school and student cooperation is now
an assun.:d t.hing for many yc."Lrs. Altogether, Lhc yea r of '2-l-'25 hus been a howling su cces~ an&lt;l to Lhc C lass of ·25 credit is due. A high precedent for succeeding
years has been set. 1 25 !ms proved a. wonderful trail breaker, and now many years
of b1;llianl ach ievement, and fame are in store for Jefferson Hi!

STEEL

C

As observed by one of our 1111111bcr u.1'10 f?.rad ualed )
'in January a'/ld went 011/. to Pill.sburglt lo work

Out of the open hearth in a blaze of glory it fl ows, a while h ut sLream. Out o f
the bodies of m en it fl ows, little 1;vulets of sweat, running in canyons of soot. Out
of t he souls of men it flows, a very \Vater of life , making a mo,·ing thing o( an inanimate mass. Out of the mouLhs of millions it flows, a n ever e nding cry fo r more .
That is steel.
All night long t he furnaces blaze, flauntin g their power in c ro wns of mulLicolored flames. All nigh t long t he son g of t he mills proclaim a ne\"&lt;.'r ending dis - •
cord, crying out to the world, "Wc stop not for god nor man." All night lo ng the
work goes on, and a million men put a part of their h earts a nd a part of their souls
into it. All night long the world moves on, and wiLh it, m oves civilization-that,
too, is steel.
-S. lI. CO LE ~\IAN, JR. ' 25

TO YOU
Look-iu.g ont across lite moonlit bay,
While all the world throbs l o the la v
Of love, a11d life seems more gay •
Uuder the lovers' m oon,
A nd lite soft music seems to p!a y
On the harp of night, the coming day
Brings us back lo earth in the same old wtty,
All too soon.

But wit.It caclt hou.r that passes by,
We loolz again /.o the ea.stem sk v
For tnte love never seems to die- '
,
Tho' alt seems wrong.
And wit!t each minute com es a sigh
For they are tlze minutes t!tat do not fly,
The minutes that se parate ·y oit anci I
Seem awfully long.

T the opening of the school tcnn, a: strong sentiment was expressed by
both frtculty and students for studen t co6pcration and a student gove rning hndy. The outgrowth of t his sentiment was the organization

l11Cll1hers n( this C\)Ul1 Cil , five elected from each class, and representatives from
the m ost. prominent o rganizations in school. The Council organized with the following o ffi cers :

ITT;i~~~~ OR the third consecutive year, Roanoke annexed the State football

Lille \\"hen she defeated the V
loodrow Wilson eleven of Portsmouth
3-0. The 1924 season marked the peak of progress so far when, by
~~~~~- dcfcnling Portsmouth, she won the High School Title, defeating Fishbu rne 33-0, s he won the "Prep" School State Championship and by defeating
Virg ini a 1 fi gh of Bristol 13-7, she won the High School T itle of Tennessee. Bristol
was the second high school lo score on Roanoke in t hree years . Hi also defeated
R. M. A. 33 -0; S. M. A. 14-6; Covington Hi 48-0; Lynchburg Hi 16-0. Only one
gan1e was losl a nd Lhat to V. P. I. Goblets 20-0. Roanoke scored 160 points
agains t o ppone nts, whi le only 3+ were scored against her. By available records,
in sixteen years, R oanoke has scored 2,301 points against 741 for opponents'
scoring, and has never forfeited a game.
Eighteen were awarcled letters . The Lions Club also presented them "·ith
gold footballs. Those receiYing them were Day, Captain; Taylor, Fitzpatrick,
Bailey, IJill, \!\Timmer, Simmons, Gilbert, Barnes, Bishop, Looney, ~loorc, l\Ioody,
Shickel, l\farsh and Staples, M anager.
Most of the credit for this year's
winning team goes Lo "Tuck" Carleton, himself a football star and "grad" of
R oanoke. i\Iuch to our ~orrow, "Tuck" will not be with us next year.

of W. &amp; L. were pushed hard to win by a meagre point an d a ha lf. In the Bluefield College Tri·State Meet Roanoke won over all High Schools com peting and
came within three points of having as large a score as J3luefield College herself
and will certainly hold her own at the U. of Va. Track Carn ival.

BACKWARD GLANCES
S we glance retrospectively over the pasl years C1 f scl'111i11gly l'ndless toil.
and look ahead to the approach ing event n f our livt's . grad u ation , \\'e
are somewhat startled to realize a feeling of sadness cn-cpi11g o \'er us.
replacing the wi$h for the time we cou ld leave school and its n11inntci11nus r outine.
Of a certain, ou r school ca reer is like a mystic maze thn n tgh \\'h ich we grope
a imlessly. But when we are old we shall look back fur a tr casu1·cd g lance on
this winding maze and he able to see in it a \\'d l-pla11nt'd path \\'h ich leads us
onward to the top of a hill called " Success."

\Ne have enjoyed in our high school days many golden e xperiences . organizing

HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '27

X

T would be almost im possible to relate all the ,,·rn11h:rfttl things "·hich
the Class o f ·27 has accomplished \\'ithin thl· three years it has been
at Jefferson High, but I shall giYe a fc\\' i11:-ta11ce-. l'tllll·erni11g it s past

history.
The Class of '27 has the very great honor a ncl dist i11ct io 11 of heing the first
class to have completed the thrt'e-year cuu1-sc 11ffert"d l&gt;y thc 11cw Jefferson
High School.
In the fall of '24 we entered the majestic portals (• f that h1..•atttiful new
building. Due to inAuence caused by s uch s t11-ro t111di11~s . we had high ideals
and aspirations in rega rd to the three years ahead 1&gt; f u s. I \u t. i 1111rn.:d iatcly, our
hopes and aspirations were shattered to a great extent \\'hcn "our s uperior s"
stamped us with that traditional sign o f "Rats... &gt;: 11t 1111ly \\'ere \\' C called Rats.
but had a real Rat Day all to ourselves-boys running around franti cally as if
urged on by some instinctive fo rce from behind ( \\'hich \\'as aclnally the case) .
Naturally, the first thing " ·e were interested in \\'a s thc 11rganiznt io n o f our
class. \Vhen that day finally a rrived \\'C had regained 11111st nf n ur former
prestige and were now eager to work together for thl' hcst ad\'antagc o f our
class. \\'ill we e\'er forget the election of our midgc:t pn·sidc11t. La\\'rcnce Drown ?
But Lawrence was small only in stature hc:cau:-c he tunu:d l&gt;llt tu uc a "whale"
of a leader, gu iding us thruugh a most s uccess ful yea r. One thing which sta111ls
out especially was the presentation o f a beautiful piann t1 &gt; the school.
Our Junior yea r was equally as pleasant a.s our Frc:-hman ~emester had
been. Having as our leader Kenneth Pedigo . we hega11 t !I carefully pa\'e the way
to the last great lap o f o ur high .schnol career!
Then began the greatest of all-the Senim- ycai· ! It \\'as llp lo us lo clisµlay
our feelings and thoughts, which we had had fro m the \'c..: ry l&gt;egi1111i11g, i11 the
form of action. It was a W(Jnderful time! Dut it was a big plal..'.c tu fill because,
being Seniors, we were naturally the m odels fo r o u1· 111ulr r c/11ss11111tcs. Hcmember
when "l:lucl" Carter gave up the leadership nf !he /Jiy /]rof'11'l'S to accept the
presidency o f the class by a unanimou s deci si&lt; of thc Sc..:ninrs? \Ve w ere given
m

High Ideals in Business
HIGH IDEALS in business are just as desirable as
they are in social life.
I t has always been this concern' s aim to furnish the
highest grade material possible, and a comparison will
convince yo u of our s uccess.

Adams, Payne &amp; Gleaves

MORE MONEY
A s tud ent who stops school with the sixth grade averages
about $750 per year for life, and lives in a cheap house
that sometimes leaks. A high school graduate averages
from $ 1,500 to $2,000 per year for life, lives in a good house
and his position is permanent. When he adds a technical
education to his high school training, his income is much
larger and his chances to rise much greater.

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

T stands as a lig hthouse of true knowledge
and learning , shedding rays of that know!·
edge upon all its inmates-a superstructure,
our dear, new, two -year-o ld High School! \\"e
did not rea lize the full beauty &lt;incl blessing of
our dwelling las t yea r, but living in it two years
has brought to us a keener sense of appreciation.
It has g lorified for us our last two yea r s o f
High School.
\Ve've come to know what it means to have
a n adeq uate stage m 1 which to ovc.:r comc shyness.
We've developed physical streng th ;111d mora le
in its beautiful gymnas ium. \·Vc.:'vc cnjnycd
1vlath, Latin a nd English a little mor e because
of sitting in comfo rtab le, airy classrooms.
So, in appreciation of th e foresight o[ him
who recognized ciur needs-who advocated such
an eq uipment as we ha ve-whn made the idea l
of a beautiful dwelling pussihlc, we do now
dedicate this Final I ssue o f the 1926 A~o 11N to-

After adjusting a strand o f hair, she left the room ready for the luncheon at &lt; 4uaint

She lifted her proud head , dabbled at her eyes, put her nose a litt lc higher in tltc

Again she descendec.I the stai rs and I here wa s a st range si lcncl! in t h e room.

CLASS PROPHECY
Time: ] une 26, 19+8.

Characters: Stellar lights in Class o f '28 (anJ myself).

Q

AY Vision! The man-el o f the :-.roc.Jern \\"orld." we re the h ca d-linrs

the newspaper. "In,·ented by a hitherto unknown literarr and
scientific scholar, George Smith."
I gasped and then. hecause I
remembe red George Smith as having been 011c of the I Iigh School graduates in
' 28, I became very interested in Ray V ision.
That afternoon I recei,·ed a h uge package conta ining- quite so. go 10 the
head of the cla~s! George had sent every member oft he Class of '28 a Ray \"ision
).Jachine.
It was a cross between a Radio and a Television. Ynu simply twisted the
dial to a certain station and you saw the pcnmn who li,·e&lt;l there. I t was ,·cry
simple. For example, you looked up the name Hayw;ir&lt;l &lt;rn&lt;l you fnunJ the number
was t283. You then turned the dial to each of these different numbers and. behold!
in the mirror-like sheet before the machine was :\[iss H ayward. teaching .. H amlet·•
to vour children .
. I had received my Ra y Vision :\lachine before any of the other class members
as George had run out of postage stamps after fixing my parcel for the mail. I
decided to rc,·isit mr classmates while they, unconscious of heini.r watchcJ, went
about their tasks.
First, I gingerly turned the dial to 71 I , J ames Gibhoncy's number. There
he was. Oh! he hadn't changed a bit! There was th e same o ld friendly smi lcbut what was he doing? Hold you r breath- he was writing original in:;urance
policies, for he was the president of the Lafhard Life I 11 s uran cc Company and
was a go-getter. I wanted to stay and watch him , but there we re 01 hers I wanted
to sec, too.
T turncJ the d ia l Lo 191 and ''Liz" Bradley came intn , ·ic w. She wa s stil l
her small, sweet self b ut, oh look, she was dressed in pink gingham, carrying a
milk pail in her hand; she was just setting out to inspect th&lt;.: cow. H e r adoring
husband sat in the doorway watching her. (Ko, [ wun't tel l who h e was but he was
rather tall.)
Again the dial turned, this time to bring" Bunch" !\ininger into view, re igning
over the most fashionable milliners shop in America. Latlics came into the shop
with a frown and the wrong kind of complexion for their hats, but after a few
minutes under Bunch"s guiding influence and the deposit of (JllC Jollar (the rest
to be paid in daily installments), they came out with smiles, hats and complexions
blending beautifully.
( 6~)

�acorn
hcl&lt;l mr breath and Lu med the dial to see ou r hero, \linor Stewart, the bestlooking bor in the Class of ·2~. He was still holding down that reputation. but
what else was he doing? H e was doing what so many handsome roung men finally
do-expert acc0un1a111 work for a large business firm. There was a smile on his
face , so I guess he c11jp~·cd his work.
Then l sa w \lildn:d l"rqulwrt- Prcsident of the r\ational F armers Bank.
She wa s hastening from a Directors' \feet ing to another entangling problem.
J\t Kew 'i ·o rk. I found "Bob,. \\"atls. He had in\·entcd a new kind of fortunetelling machine and was nnw a most prominent figure on \Vall Street, where he
rus hed around looking up figures 0 11 rndium mines.
I saw :\Jargucrit c Herbert, Dean of \ "assar and Physical Educator. You can't
im agin e a busier pt:rson. Ju st then she was p lanning an outing for her athletic
association and w;1s 011 her wa~· to the baker~· to buy roll s. l follo\\'cd her with the
Ray Vision anti, In ! Georgt: Gi~h was the baker. The shock was almost too much.
so I turned the dial.

to the back Joor of a smal l cnt tage and out climbed Dean Jennings. She \\'ent

o rganizations. l le \\'a s \\'riting \\'hen I saw him- writing a book of poems called
"Cathedral Laughter.··

some girls in baseball anJ l learneJ, after \\'atching her for a few minutes. that
she had charge of the best camp for g irls in the l'nited States. I remembered her
athletic work done in Jefferson lliiih and knew it 1rns true.
E&lt;lna \\'a ll ace was heaJ o f the Language Department at Columbia uni,·ersit~-.
During each s umrnt:r she o rganized a group of the best students and took them
to R ome. She was irnid t n be th e best teacher at the Cni,·ersiLy.
At C hicago, I saw two pcnple. First , George Trimm cr-;1 dctecti\·e. He
had his hand s thru st J cc ply in his pockets and wa~ beginning confidently, " \\'el l,
it's like this- " I h as tily turned the dial, \\'ho 1\·a~ it ? "Slopp~·" H enson, matron
in Chicago's la rgest o rph&lt;tn asr lum . "Slopp~·" was most popnlnr \\'ith the children
for s he bclieYcd in lnts o f j:im and airp l:rnc rides.
l saw Lillian I logan, the society leader, in Illinois. Yes, she was married
and you can't guess to \\'hom ! Oh, no, you don't know eithe r. Lillian, at the
time, was leader of the Phil anthropic .\lm·emcnt for Sufferers fro m Cnlone.
Jn the same ci t y, Dornth)' .\!organ and Frances Butler had Lhe m~in office
for their famous chain grocer~· s lnres.
I n Ri chmond, \ ' irginia. H c..:rman LcGrande ,,·as a Aorist. I should ha\·c liked

VER half o f the enrollment of J efferson H igh School is ,·csted in the
Sophomore Class. An&lt;l what has the Sophomore Class contributed
to High School?
\.Vith a "Rat" teacher, :\Iiss Gaines, as advisor, a11J these o fficers: Dick
Tho mas, President; L e Baron Coleman, Vice President: Clayton .\ l itchell, Secreta r y, and J o hn Noftsinger , Treasurer, we h ave at t ained much success.
Acco rding to THE AcoRN staff and s ubscribe rs th e Sop homor e Cl:tss is the
most high-bro w class at Hig h School.
And what o f ou r footba ll he roes? The sturd y ce nte r o f Jefferson's cl c ,·c n was
none other than J ohn Noftsinger. :\!like Dri scoll also hail s from the "Sop hs .' '
Afte r careful consideration, H a r vey H a ll, Ben Smith, and Genevieve Co:1mden
were elected to represent us o n the Prefect Council. During no minations for
the P refect Council, '.\Ir . P arsons ma&lt;le the annou ncement i11 A ssembly that the

And what of the future of this insig nificant "Rat" class? One need no1 be
even optimistic to look forward to a day when the Senior Class of '30 will be the

�IT'S A FACT
That no trade is a good trade unless buyer and seller are
both satisfied. That's why the dominant note at Hancock's
is "Quality."
There is no substitute for quality-and that applies to all
purchases you make here-whether of necessities, luxuries,
things to wear or articles for the home.
If you place satisfaction above first cost, when planning your
purchases, you'll come to this store.

�HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1929
:\IIDDLE-AGED man sat comfortably by a glowing firl'. Tlw sett in~ was
serene. It afforded an opportunity for t.hought and n•collt·ctinn- and
lhis was his pleasant memoryOn a typical September clay in 1926 a g roup of students c nterl'd the porwls
of Jefferson Senior High School. After being duly o rgan ized . wiLh John CC&gt;pC'nhnn.'r
as their president, they became the Sophomore C lass of Lhal institution. They were
received by the upper cl:issmcn, but without any sho w ()f enthusiasm. The term
"Rats" was applied to them, much to their dislike.
At once the ideal that loomed before Lhe Sophomores of ' 26 \\·as Lh:it of Seniors
of '29. Their huge class comprised O\·er half of lhc entire cnrullmcnL, :ind so they
realized the importance of making the best of lhc s iLuatinn. Thl'ir accomplishments consisted of the collection of class dues, prcscma t ion of a fC'w :iss0mblies
and the class picture in Tm: ACOR.'.\'.
The following year they became Juniors, a nd the fcl·ling nf n·sponsibility increased. Richard Edwards was chosen as presiclcnl nf this class.
Nwncrous class meet.ings were held, at which Limes t he businC'ss o f collecting
dues, selection of t he class ring, and representation in nu;ous acti,·ilies was carried
on.
Near the close of this year Student Participation in Gnn·rnmC"nt w:-is instit.utcd
in High School. The different classes elected Lhei r r('prcsC'n ta ti n.·s to the Prefect
Council, the Junior Class being represented by four. Th(' inlrrnluctinn and establishment of this new system was certa inly a big factnr in the dcYclopmcnt of the
students from the standpoint of honor and responsibili ty.
A more vivid picture is brought to mind aL Lhc n pcning of schnnl Lhc next fnll.
At last the dream realized, al last that exalted feeling o f being superior. IL was
an actual fact. vV e were Seniors of the Class of '29.
The excitement was intense as lo who should be the c:lass prcsidcnl. After
a rather exciting election, John Copenhaver was again chosen as th&lt;.' lc:icler of his
class. Jack Garrell was elected Vice President, Anne· Blain, Secrl'tary, nnd Robert
Pillow, Treasurer. \Vith these able officers Lhc Class was organized with the
assurance of success.
Immediatelv following its organization , the Class plungC'd inln the business
of deciding Lhe. many maLLers anrl problems lhaL lay lwfnrC' thl'm. l\ kl'Lin~s were
held as often as possible, al which times the various c.·omm illcx·s wvn· appointed
and their work begun .

His not boastful tn say that C':tC'h class has certain outstanding characte1istics
as well as marked a&lt;T&lt;&gt;mplishnwnts, and this C lass \\'as no exception. They seemed
to show a pn lcn1a I :dTt'cl i011 f, 1r l he lmn·r classes in g11 idi ng them 0 11 ward by sctti ng
the proper cxamplC'.
Student Parliripatinn in Cm·crnment still remained as the most outstanding
acti,;ty o f the Cbss and the school. This Class is proud of the fact that student
participation \\'as so su c&lt;.·l•ssful during its y ears in High School.
In Dramatics, ccrlain nwmlwrs nf the class displayed unusual talent. They
were well rcprcscnt c·cl in t ht· ,·arious stage prod uctions. :\fuch credit is due t he
committee, 0.liss Hay\\'ard :md :\Iiss Black in selecting and directing t.he class
play, "Nothing Bu t the Tru th." The Clnss anticipated an unusually successful
producliun.
As t he time g rc \\· l-ihnrle 1· unLil commencement, plans for that memorable
occasion were mndc . The Clnss decided lo lun-e nn outside speaker, with the
necessary s tuclenls taking a sm:lll pnrt in t he exercise.
Through a ll o ur failures and su ccesses, ).fr. Parsons stood by us. His kind
advice a nd supcn·ision !wiped us through. The Class is deeply indebted to him
for his interest. and helpfulness .
At last the dn·am of g-raclu:1tin n hec:unc a realization . \Ye were to accept our
diplomas with t he feelin g- th;lt the three years spent in Hig h School were not in vnin.
IL was with a feeling- of cxuhcrance, and yet. reluctance, that we thought of
leaving that dear o ld pl:lcc and the teac hC'rS who had h elped us to prepare ourselves for the problems of life afterwards.
.
The vision fadcrl. The (&gt;bjecls in the room became ' ' isible to the middle-aged
man seated comfo1·tably b y t.he now dying fire. Plcnsnnt memories those-sleep,
and dreams- .

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

�Speaking of Perso nalities

A LO\V CRY o f distress.

Some one called for help. 1\ pitiful ligure lay
huddled up on the dark steps outs ide the auditorium. She leaned back.
holding one ankle. and groaned . A gallant J :oy Scollt. Hilly K .. coming
up in the nick o f time. handled the . ituation coolly. I le made a wild run to the
drug store for bandages and things. Skillflllly. he strapped the poor little ankle.
Its owner was game and battled back a few tears that w o uld keep coming. It's
a rather vacant feeling to mis s your step, isn·t it ?
"Gosh . these rocks are heavy! And J \ ·e cut m y linge r o n th at bo ttle in the
c reek! But- come on, we've got to fini s h this s tretch a long h e re. The little
Ford will ruin itself in these dugouts." E lizabet h hean:d a rock from the c reek
and dropped it into a yawning ho le. Road-building by th e fair sex is something
new in the way of accomplishments. It is especially to be admired when indulged
in on a hot summer's clay. The garme nt worn, in this pa rtinila r instance. was a
misleading mus tard-colored bathing suit.
\ Vhich reminds us of a delightful bright bllle sweate r 1lcn has been wearing.
O ne day we glanced into a S ophomore assembly and saw him s tanding on the
stage be fo re the s tudent body. The Sophs looked drau. the light was drab. That
bit of blue was mighty encouraging. It was quite s ymlJnlic o f his s peech-true
blue--honesty and ideals. It would be nice if all people wo re co lo rs l o s uit their
personalities-perhaps.
Jack is, from all appearances, just about the s heikics t of s heiks . I l e is even
giving C. B. strong competition. ::\ot Jong ago he w as s tanding m11 in the hall
surrounded by fifty o r mo re females. The p oor boy. with a frantic air and
disheveled hair, was actually fighting them o ff. But they . d e te rmined bodies a5
they were, clung on. Some of the res t o f us wo uldn't mind trying o ur hand at
collecting S enior dues.
Y ou know, we' ve o ften heard some one say something. in a mo re o r less
jovial way, about "breaking the camera." But a ll j oking aside . th e thing really did
happ~n. i\Jr. J ewel, at Kidd's, was s tepping a ro un d in hi s c haracteris tic w ay.
pushing away a bit of scenery, pulling up a shade o r two . and crnrki ng jokes about
unfortunate love affairs to make one of our fa ir Senio rs s mi le. The g irl s miled
~t i\lr. Jewel, M r. Jewel smiled at he r. Fle pressed th e bu lb. a nd his face fe ll.
"ome of the camera's insides had gon e wrong. 1\fr. Jewel turn ed to poo r 1\I.,
\ Veil ' my dear, :
·
vou certain 1y couldn't have clon e that. ' '
\i Y ou ~now, this thing of being a model for artis ts mu s t be frightfully t edious.
V~J got wind ·of a rchoice story about one. 1\ancy R oss, that du s ky . happy-lookin:r

c 11 &lt; was

G
posing or one o f the art classes. She wo re the garb of a picturesque
. ypsy-a gay, many-colored affair. One struggling s tude nt was having a hard
t;me 0 ~ it. The instructor looked over the artisfs s hou ld e r. She admonis h ed he1·

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

�Class Poem
W e have know n
So much of all the joys
That life can giveW e have felt the thrill
Of leamingTh e w armth of friendshi'/&gt;And a love of living.

What, of all the things
T hat we have know n,
Shall we rem ember best f
Will it be the w ords
That we have heard
Uttered by learned men f
Or w ill it be
Th e soun.d of many feet
ll nd v oices -gay chatter
11 nd happy laughter f
The thrill of victoryN ot for ourselves alone.
Th e v iew of cloud-topped mountains
I n the distancef
Th e know ledge of true friendship ?
Though we wander farAnd per/ orm great deedsN ever can we for get
Those first affections-th e essence

Of

our lives
In y ears just past.

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                <text>Heironimus and Company when located at 34-38 Campbell Avenue.   The history of Heironimus downtown follows: Heironimus and Brugh Dry Goods started in 1890 at 110 Commerce Street and later 206 Commerce Street SW (2nd Street).  A new building was erected at 37-39 Campbell Avenue on the northeast corner of Campbell Ave and Henry (1st) Street and occupied it in 1898 (this building was later razed and Pughs Department Store built here.  The firm and its successor, S. H. Heironimus, remained at this location until 1915. In 1915 S.H. Heironimus moved to the Thurman and Boone Building at 401-403 South Jefferson Street and shared the building with Thurman and Boone Furniture.  Heironimus also added an annex to the Coulter Building (601-605 Jefferson Street) from 1930-1935.  In 1935 they moved to 34-38 Campbell Avenue, which previously was McBain Dry Goods Company.  In 1956, they moved back to 401 S. Jefferson Street to the Thurman &amp; Boone Building.  This time they owned the entire building and also purchased the old Woolworth building next door to the south on Jefferson Street and used it as the Menswear Shop.  The entire building was refurbished in 1956 and was one of the most modern stores in Roanoke.  It closed in 1996.  The building seen in this photograph was razed in 1956.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

The Glee Club
The primary aim of the Glee Club is to inculcate in the students of Jefferson
High a keener interest in and a better appreciation of good music. Contempora ry
with this aim is that of creating a better spirit of fellO\\·ship among music students.
The girls limit their membership to thirty, \\'hile t he boys make no limitation.
The members are selected from the members of the Choral Club by tryout committees
appointed by the president.
In addition to the regular routine, each club has conducted a broadcast. The boys
also exchanged programs with Radford High. The greatest achievement of the yea r
was the Annual Recital presented in April.

Tht' .ll'ffrrso11 gricldcrs were the victims of bad breaks for the most of the football
season , but in the final f.!anws they staged an inspiring and thrilling comeback to
pro,·e thcmseln·s a truly p:rt·at team. A smashing defeat of Lynchburg, Jefferson's
ancient ri,·al, was the di max of the season's play. The consistent ability of Captain
Sowder, I I aky, :"\iningt'r and Keith in the line, and the stellar play of Johnston,
Clark, \ Villiams and Tarpley in the backfield, were prime factors in the 1\lagician
victo ries.

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

The stained glass window is the Jackson Window, installed in 1905 by Rev. L.L. Downing, the pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church. He had this window installed because Thomas J. Jackson taught the Reverend Downing’s parents to read and write and instructed them in the ways of the Presbyterian Church.  Though this structure burned in the 1950s, the window was unharmed and was installed in the new Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church located at 301 Patton Avenue NW.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides. Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968. There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904. Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked. Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable. The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them. While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here. An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.</text>

�The Jefferson Sophomore Class
The Sophomore class of Jefferson Senior High is made up of students from all
sections of the city; t hey came from Jackson Junior High, Lee Junior High, and
Woodrow Wi lson Junior High. When they reached Jefferson High, the process
of amalgamation began. Soon the members of the class met for the purpose of
organi7.ation. Se,·cral meetings of the class were held during the school year at
which times there were discussions on student go,·ernment, class dues, and other
high school acti\' iti cs . The officers elected for 1933- '34 were:

ORGANIZATIONS

��Student Participation in Governn1ent
Student Go,·ernment was started at Jefferson in 1928 through the efforts of both
the facu lty and the studen t body. Its p urpose has been to gi,·e each student a voice
in the go,·ernment of the school, and to instill in him a spirit of honesty and cooperation. To attain t hese a ims, a P refect a nd a Student Council were formed . In the
forme r are vested the legislati,·e, executi,·e and judicial powers of the organization.
I ts members consist of five Seniors, four J u niors, t hree Sophomores, and the President of each class. T his bodr is aided br four Facultr Ad,·isors, who meet regularlr
w ith the Counci l. T he ad ,·isory powers of the organ ization are contained in the
Student Council, a group composed o f one member from e\·err roll call. This
Cou ncil is a medium between the P refect Cou ncil and t he students themseh·es. The
P resident, who must be one of the Senior prefects, is elected by the student bod~·
at large.

The Expression Department
Expression aims to teach those who seek general culture, how to form clear
ment;d impressions and how to gi,·e fitting expression to their thoughts and emotions by intelligent, artistic use of the ,·oice and body.
J\n accumulatio n of facts is not education; no knowledge is worth while unless
it gets into the blood and can be passed on to ou r fellow-man by some means of
expression. The Expression Department seeks to awaken in the student a realization o f his potentialities and br direction to help him to attain the highest expression
of them. Therefore, the Yarious courses in this department are commended to
I hose who wish to give o f their best to any occupation or profession.

The Expression Department has been responsible for many productions this
rear. Notable presentations were: "Smilin' Through," which was given three
nights; two e,·enings of one-act plays; "Showboat," a two-night performance; and
three Friday afternoon Revues.
The play, "Pater Noster " was se nt to the Un i,·crsitr of \ "irginia this spring
compete in the state contest.
"Quality Street," by Barrie, was selected fo r the Senior P lay.

Dear Boys:
I wi sh to take this opportun ity to congratulate
you upon the record you have made at Roanoke High School.
It is not merely a record o f contests won bu t also a fine
record of clean sportsmanship and manly conduct.
It is grat ifying to note that you are learning
the real lessons of Athletics which teach self sacrific e ,
and develop a spirit of cooperation as well as a will to
win. With every good wish for your continued success, I am

"Congratulations, Jefferson Hi gh, on your football record for
the season of 1 934. While i t was not my good fortune to see
you in action I have heard from a number of sources that
the team as a whole indicated by its play that it had been
carefully drilled in the important fundamenta l s of blocking
and tackling and that this together with a fine team spirit
was entirely responsible for your success. "
Yours sincerely,

I cons ider it a p rivilege to be allowed to extend
greetings to the Class of 1935 and especially to the
athletes and students interested in athletics.
While at V. M. I. I have had occasion to see many
Jefferson teams i n action, and your teams have a welldese rved reputati on for hard, clean, s port s manlike play. I
have also coached or come in contact with former Jefferson
athletes during their college careers and have always f ound
that they have lived up to the fine traditions of your
school.
I have only to add that both competitors and
rooters have learned a lasting lesson when they absorb the
principles of sportsmansh i p and fair p lay from properly
conduc ted, mentally and physically beneficial sports.

ATHLETIC SPECIAL

JOHNNY SHAFER
Left End
No. 74
John Shafer, one of High School's
most outstanding athletes, proved his
ability as a real football player this
past season. Although Johnny has
been on the team two years previous to
this he has never made such a splendid
record before. He played regular left
end very efficiently and, whenever
necessary, was shifted to the back field
where he played left half back. In the
back field position he proved himself
to be one of the best kickers and ball
carriers on the team, with an average
of nearly five yards toting the pigskin
oval. Johnny was also a very able pass
receiver, and was a main cog in Jefferson's passing attack, which proved to
be so successful.
Johnny has brown hair, blue eyes,
weighs 164 pounds, and is six feet tall.

CLARENCE "BUD" OAKEY
No. 78

Left Tackle
Possibly no man deserved a football letter any more than Bud Oakey,
more familiarly known to the boys as ·
"Radio" or " Loud Speaker."
Bud is eighteen years old, six feet
tall, and weighs 185 pounds. This was
his third year as a member of the squad,
and for two years has been a regular
on the team. He participated in all the
games of the past season and escaped
injury.
Bud declares that he has no hobby,
but many of his teammates say ''loud
and frequent speaking" should be
given as his hobby.
This·is Oakey's senior year and he
plans to graduate in June, 1935. H e
has paid his last respects on the
J efferson High team, and must say
" Adieu."

FRED " R UM-D UM" BURTON

N o. 72
JOHN D. "NI G" HATCHER
No. 71

Left Guard

Another brilliant football star and
letter man is "Nig" Hatcher. H e is a
senior this year and is eighteen years
old , five feet, seven inches t all, and
weighs 148 pounds.
J ohn D. was injured early in the
season in the J ohn Marshall game. For
t he next four games he was on crutches
caring for a broken leg, but in the
r emainder of the games he returned t o
his old form and did splendid work.
He has p layed two years for J efferson
and filled the position of left guard.
Hatcher and J. Shafer, left end, formed
a blocking team which could move the
best tackles in the State. J ohn D. was
probably the meanest man in the line
and spread terror in opposing back~
fields.

Center

F red Linwood Burton, one of the
outstanding members of the team,
played center for "dear ole Hi." He,
incidentally, is the only member of the
team who played in every game without a single substitution.
Fred is eighteen years old, is five
feet, ten inches tall, and weighs 163
pounds. Fred was on the squad last
year and received a letter; he also
received a letter this year.
" H unk " Hurt commends his line
for its wonderful work, and especially
F red for bis accurate centering and fine
blocking. Although Fred was in no
position to make touchdowns he always contributed to them by centering
the ball exactly where his teammates
expected it.
May his football career always be
as successful as it was at "Hi."

BI LLY "PRIMO" HOBACK
No. 79

Right T ackle

Billy Hoback, a senior this year, is
one of Jefferson's fightin'est players.
He played right tackle. He made first
team the first year he was out and has
earned two letters in two years. Although the line does not get much
newspaper publicity, it plays a vital
part in winning games, and such players as Billy help make a successful

Except for a sprained ankle, received
in the game with John Marshall, of
Richmond, be had no injuries, and was
able to play in every game of the

JOHN " I RON MAN" McGINNIS
No. 68
Right Gttard
John McGinnis, playing right guard
on the Jefferson team, has been made
captain of the team for next season.
This is his second year on the team.
Unfortunately, in the second game
of the season, rivalling J ohn M arshall,
of Richmond, he broke his nose. He
had to wear a mask, and was nicknamed "Iron Mask McGinnis. " But
this did not stop him. He played hard
in every game of the past season. Also,
McGinnis acquired the name of
'' Snozzle.''
He is eighteen years old and
weighs 153 pounds.
As he was elected unanimously as
captain of the team, we are sure that he
will be a good one, so we say, " Good
luck to you and your team next year
on the gridiron, Captain 'Snozzle'
McGinnis.''

Fred Elliott, one of the main factors in this year's football team, held
down the right end. At this position
Fred showed amazing intelligence in
diagnosing the opponent's plays, as
well as figuring in more than one
touchdown play himself.
Going out for football while at Lee

three years, as well as being on the Lee
Junior and Jefferson basket ball teams.
In spite of the fact that be weighs

clinching the Lynchburg game with a
touchdown run, Fred gained for himself a position among the heroes of

PAUL "FOOTS" RICE
No. 70
Right Hal/ Back
Probably the most outstanding and
consistent man in the backfield was
Paul Rice, 155-pound right half back.
This was his third and last year as a
member of the squad, but his first year
as a member of the first string. H e was
the heaviest man in the first string
backfield.
His ability at throwing passes, and
consistency at place-kicking was directly responsible for victory in more
than one hard-fought game. In two
games his points after touchdowns
brought victory. Against Salem he
threw the lateral pass which won the
game, and his long pass in the Bluefield game was directly responsible for
the only and winning Jefferson touchdown. He possesses the enviable record
of ten conversions for points after
touchdowns out of thirteen attempts.

JACK "JAKE" TICE

No. 64
Q1tarter Back
J ack Tice, this year's captain and
~uarter back, was one of the main
reasons for J eiierson High's successful
season. I njured most of the season
with a dislocated shoulder, J ack returned in the Lynchburg game and so
revived the team with his spirit that
they played an inspired· game and
emerged with an 8-0 victory.
H andicapped as he was, ''Jake''
watched his team plow through a
difficult schedule, and when he did get
back into play he was the chief sparkplug of the J efferson machine in their
struggles with teams of superior weight
and experience.
Weighing only 154 pounds, and
being only 5 feet, 8 inches tall, Tice has
been a regular for the past two years.
He will leave behind him, at J efferson,
a record of a great quarter back.

Fttll Back
No. 62
Perhaps no person in Jefferson Hi
better deserves their football letter
than 19-year-old Jimmy Robertson,
the "mercury-heeled" half back.
Jimmy was on the football squad for
two consecutive years, and both seasons he earned his letter.
Despite his ability as a football
player, Jimmy's first and favorite
sport is track. After attending the
Pennsylvania Relays in 1932 as a
member of the team, he has set his
heart to be a track man. Last year he
averaged fifteen points in each of
J efferson's t rack meets.
Jimmy attributes his success in
both football and track to his strict
observance of training rules. He plans
to enter the University of Richmond
next year and study to be a physical
training director.

WALTER "BUDDY" SMITH

No. 67
Walter "Buddy" Smith, better
known as Bud, was born May 10,
1916, making him nineteen years old.
He is 5 feet, 7 inches tall and weighs
130 pounds. He has the distinction of
being the lightest man on the squad.
This year was his third year out, and
he played full back most of the time.
Buddy is one of the most dependable members of the team, having played
in every game this year, and he nev~r
was injured. He is best known for his
ability in passing and signal calling.
Bud's athletic talents do not stop
at football; he has been a member of
the basket ball team for the past three
years.
Buddy will be an asset to any

ATHLE TIC SPECIAL

THE SEASON
Jefferson's "Fightin' Magicians"
experienced a most successful season
in football this year. Having, perhaps,
the lightest team in the State, they
consistently outplayed heavier opponents, winning six out of eight battles on the gridiron. Combining speed
and intelligence with expert coaching,
they romped through their eight
scheduled games under the able generalship of Captain Jack Tice, with flying colors.
The Magicians opened their season
with Radford, on September 22d, entertaining that eleven at Vinton. The
Magician team smothered the heavy
Radford team to the score of 41-0.
Coach Hurt used practically all of his
reserves, who still plowed through the
opponents. Tice, Rice, Robertson, and
Smith contributed the points of the
Magician victory.
The following Saturday, September
29th, the Magicians upset the dopebucket by defeating the highly-rated
and heavy team of J ohn Marshall, of
Richmond, at Maher Field. Hampered
by injuries to three players-Captain
Tice, Linemen Hatcher and Hobackin the early part of the game, nevertheless, the "Fightin' Magicians "gained
a one-point margin through Paul
Rice's place kicking and held it, after
they had scored on a pass from Tice to
Rice and a long run by Robertson. The
Justices, of Richmond, lost t he Magicians' first Class " A" tilt 14-13.
J efferson's Class "A" tilt, on October 6th, with Danville High was canceled because of heavy rain.
The Magicians met their ancient
rivals from Salem High on the next
Saturday, October 13th, at Maher
Field. The game is always a clash between the deadliest of rivals. Both
student bodies turned out in an array
of color amassing a crowd of about
2_.500 people. The Magician team continually outplayed the invaders. The
Jefferson li!le was at its best, stopping
all Wolverine threats of scoring. The

Magicians scored bu t once in t he game
on a very tricky play. Rice, taking the
ball from Smi th , flipped a lateral to the
fleet Jimmy R obertson , who galloped
across the goa l line stand ing up. Rice
kicked a perfect place kick, making the
score 7--0. The M agicians thus won
their second Class ''A '' tilt.
Saturday, October 20th, the
"Fightin' Magicia ns " met the Terriers, of Vinton, in an exciting game.
The Roanoke boys literally ran away
with the Terriers, trouncing them to
the tune of 27- 0. In the opening period
Smith carried the ball off tackle to
make the first touchdown of the game.
Rice place kicked for the point. The
Magicians scored again on a pass
from Rice to Akers in the third period,
with Rice making the placement.
New players sent in by Coach Hurt
again scored on a pass. Jimmy Robertson ended the scoring with a sprint of
37 yards for a touchdown.
The next Saturday, October 27th,
the Magicians went out of the State to
defeat the smooth-running Bluefield
team. Lacking Captain Tice's quarterbacking, the Jefferson team gained a
one-point margin over the West Virginians and held it. Rice passed to
Akers for the touchdown and made a
perfect place kick for the extra point.
T his was a hard-fought victory for the
Magicians, the teams being almost
evenly matched, bu t the Magicians
emerged with a 7-6 victory.
November 3d marks the highlight
of the Jefferson 1934 football season.
It was on this date that the magicians
defeated their bitterest rivals of Glass
High, of Lynchburg, on Maher Field
before a crowd of 5,000. More spirit
was shown by the students in this one
game than all the rest. Pep assemblies,
parades and a bonfire were but a part
of the exhibition of the stu dents' enthusiasm. The Glass High team was
rated to give the Magicians a terrific
defeat. This was .the championship
game of the Western District. Captain

�ATHL ETI C SPECIAL
Tice returne d to the Roanoke High
line-up and a ided the "Fightin' Magicians" in obtaining their 8 to 0 defeat
over the Hill Toppers. The "little"
Magicia n s' line battled the heavy Glass
High line to a standstill, every man
playing an excellent game. The Magicians' firs t score came in the second
quarter when Tice tackled a Glass Hi
back in the end zone, gaining a safety.
The game proved a see-saw affair after
that with both teams playing close
football. In the last few minutes,
E lliott intercepted a pass and made a
beau tiful touchdown sprint to clinch
the Magician victory 8-0. This was
the third Class" A" tilt Jefferson won,
putting them in the run for the State
Championship.
The Magicians were due for a defeat next Saturday, November 10th,
in a game with Portsmouth High on
Maher Field. This was the State
Championship tilt. The Magicians
went down fighting gamely against
terrific o&lt;J.ds. They were forced to play
at 1 2 :30 m the afternoon, in a drizzling
r ain on a muddy field, against a team
that outweigh7d them by a great margin. The Presidents scored three times
00 the M a gicians, and left the field
with a 19-0 victory. This loss put
J effers?n out of the race for the championship.
The next ~aturday the Magicians
met Maury. High, of Norfolk, in their
last gam~ , m Norfolk. The Magicians
were agam defeated by a narrow marg in of 13- 7 by a team that defeated the
power ful Portsmouth team in a future
game· The light J efferson team battled
the heavy Commodores to a close
score, but w~re unable to stop their
powe~ drives. They scored once
when T ice pulled a clever reverse. Rice
kicked the extra point.
The 1934 J efferson High School
football team proved to be an example
of perfect te.am work. I t was made up
of a splendid group of boys, known
over t~e ~tate for their clean playing on
the gridiron. They seldom were penalized for over twenty yards in one game
and hardly ever for a personal foul to
another p~ayer. The line, made up of
{ast-chargmg, clever p layers, out-

9

played heavier lines with surpnsmg
ability. Capable ends were found in
Akers, Shafer and Elliott; powerful
tackles in Hoback, Oakey and Kiser ;
fast, tricky guards in Hatcher and
McGinnis, and a perfect center in
Burton. A splendid ~t of backs composed the backfield, led by Captain
Tice at quarter back, Rice and Smith
at halves, and Robertson and Fitzgerald at full back. These boys showed
their capable ability of offensive and
defensive football.
Although the J efferson 1934 football season was not adorned with a
state championship, nevertheless, it
was the most successful that the high
school has experienced in many years.

THE BASKET BALL SEASON
This year we had, perhaps, one of
the best basket ball seasons in the
history of Jefferson Senior High School.
From the very beginning until the
whistle blew closing the last game, the
team played not as a group of five
separate members but as a single unit.
Each man cooperated with his fellow
sportsmen. As it was last year, so it is
this year- the team "clicked."
The school spirit in the games this
year was very good and .is to be commended. A large number of season
tickets were sold and the games were
well attended.
The championship game with John
Marshall, which was played on March
6th, was the best and perhaps the most
exciting game of t he season. It was
exceedingly close with both teams
running neck and neck. At first John
Marshall took a several-point lead.
After several goals Jefferson rallied
and tied them. At the end of the first
half the score was fifteen to fifteen. At
the end of the third quarter it was
twenty-one to twenty-one and about
five minutes before the game ended,
John Marshall led by three points.
By this time the crowd was going mad
with excitement; the yelling and
cheering were terrific. Then Jefferson
made several quick, flashing plays
which placed us in the lead with a score
of twenty-eight to twenty-four andthe game ended.
Then the crowd rushed on the floor
and within a minute the team was

swallowed up. Several boys lifted
Captain Paul Rice upon their shoulders
and carried him out amidst yells of
cheering and applauding.
With this game t he team brought
home for the second consecut ive year
the state championship tit le for our
dear old Alma Mater, J efferson High
School.
Jefferson won fifteen games and
lost eight. The games, with results, are
as follows :

have experienced a very successful
season.
The doubles composed of Coleman
and Rice, Highfill and McGinnis1 and
Leech and Gibson, have consistently

The Magician Team crushed the
Danville High Team 6 to 3, in a match
held in Danville, April 26th. The following Saturday, May 4th, they defeated their ancient Glass High rivals

in Lynchburg 9 to 0.
The scheduled matches ended with
the Glass High clash with the exception

of the State matches held in Charlottesville, May 11th.
In this meet Paul Rice and Winston
Coleman swept through the strong
opposition of Charlottesville, Maury,
and Danville to take the Class A
Doubles Crown, Charlottesville was
defeated 6- 1, 6--0; while, the Maury
team was downed with a 6--0, 6- 2
score. Danville lost to the Magicians
6-3, 6-4. Suffolk High was defeated

6-2, 6-3 for the state crown.
This meet ended the 1935 Tennis
schedule which was climaxed with the
State Championship. Much praise goes
to these boys that brought home such
an honor for Jefferson High. Surely,
the 1935 Tennis Season was more than
a success.

LADIE-E-S AND
GENTLEMAN

Local Gal Makes Good
Miss Cutie Eades, better known as
Dot, has become quite a famous a ctress
after taking Dr. More Pains reducing
powders and now she says it doesn' t
take a Mathamatician to know figures.
The young lady has a host of ardent
fans whom she uses in summer months,
but her mail is heavier around t he fi rst
of each month.

Ladies ;ind gentlemen, cries Um:le
Pinch Pe1my, a nnouncing the rc,·icw of
the the;it rical production, Little Women
-that dramatic, colosal, and suspendous play written by Louisa A.
when l was j ust a young one in the
Civil War days. But in lhe fol lowing
paragraphs we're going to show you
what the four "Small Size Dames "
woulda looked like in moder n times,
especially during t he Depression when
skirts went up and stocks went down .

'Tis remembered t hat J anie S . ll':t ~
asked (when w;1
iling to show her dramatic ab il ity for parts of Liitlc Women)
what she meant by trying o ut for
Lillie Women . T hey say that J ane
d idn' t show up for t ryouts any more.
W hat the Modern Li ttle
Women would haYe looked like
had t he book been written in ' JS.
J\tfay, Joe, and ./\my a r e pictu red .
The one absent is Beth-she wns

Here's our Joe, in real life Louise
Glenn, becoming the life of the party
nfter learning to dance through a six
weeks' correspondence course. Even
though in our prehistoric production
she burnt a hole in the one and only
party dress, she managed to keep her
back to the wall and .. pull" up a good
froot.

\Ye couldn't help printing this exclusi,·e photo of Bud Okey (l\lr. Brook)
taken one of those early spring afternoons as he strolled across the grass
strip backstage with his lo,·ing wife,
l\lei;. She, of course, is not pici.ured,
but remained demurely in the background, just as t he handsome Bud
likes them when he's around.

lf you really wanna know how the
snow (confetti) kept Callin' in Act I.
just take a look at this photo made for
us by Sanders, Inc. You see l\lr. Jack
Sherelz with limbs gracefully around a
backstnge rafter. Across from him was
l\Ir. Julian Hatcher, not shown here as
you see. When this w;is snapped, i\Ir.
Sheretz had just called Julian. in undertone, things we really couldn't print,
and in tum, Hatcher hurls the boxes of
snow he c.1rcfully scraped up. The
snow (confetti) whirh Shcretz had
thrown at him in the same offense. l\Ir.
Sheretz will again slide down the pole,
gather the snow, and throw it again at
l\Ir. Hatcher, pro,·ided his ,·ocabulary
doesn't run out. So, on into the night
rages the snow storm.

yard record.

This is a sketch of an embarressing
moment for Tippy ~lcQuill,;n (Pro.
Bc.1r) a moment when he wanted to
light a l\J urad- for some thoughtful
soul mo,·ed the sofa off stage just as
his big lo,·c scene was due, and he was
forced to confess his 10\·e for the
glamerous Joe from the floor. Frank
later declared it was lhe first time in
his years of lo\'e-making he had to do
without the couch, nnd resort to lower
places.

Herbert Broyles is another sile nt
man of football that held down a permanent position on the Jefferson hall
team of '35- the position of left end.
Rroyles was prohahly o ne of the
lightest ends on any high sd1ool team in
th e State, since he weighed only one
hundred and fifty pounds. But Herber t made up fo r his weight in all around football ~d1i\ity , and height,
He stretc:hes a little under six feet
and was many times on the receiving
end of passes thrown to him and against
him. Broyles has a surprising ability
to get in the wuy of passes that were
thrown lo gain yards for his opponents.
1-Itrl.erl says hi s hobby is reading
and he does not have any leisure time.
Sinl'e he has received his last "J" he
plans to attend the Cniversity of Virginia to stud y lmsiness.

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

Two thousand copies of the firs t issue of the newspaper were distributed free
to .the s ~ud e n ts and in t he junior hig h schools, while a third of the school subscribed immediately th ereafter. At the beginning of t he spring semester a subscription d ri ve was held a nd the st udent body reacted favorab ly to the publication
b y raising the number to over 900 weekly subscriptions. On the eJe,·enth issu e
eve ry copy was sold and the presses reprinted all extra ed ition to meet the demand .
An average of 1,100 copies were printed each week.
The newspaper met with unexpected success at the Columbia Interscholastic
Press Association at Columbia U ni versity when it took thi rd place honors in
national competition with over z,oooother high school newspape r publications. At
the time o f the convention only five issues of the J efferson News had been comp leted!
Th e business staffs of the two school publicatio ns, the J efferson News and the
J\co rrn, have been coordinated this yea r into one staff under the di rection of a
st udent manager of publicatio ns.
\ Vith the aid of the start already made, t he J efferson News will und oub te?l~­
do bigger things next yea r. Pla ns are already under\\'ay to begin publicat ion

�The Speech Department
The D epartment of Speech includes courses designt:d to rHo\·ide a k 11mdeclge
of and proficiency in public speaking, debating, o ra l read ing , spe ll i11g. a n d dramatics, which includes acting and producing. This year the department h as been e nlarged to include special classes in each subj ect . Th ese were for those \\·h n wished
to specialize in a certain phase o f the work. This year t.hc debating class has presented an assembly, and sent a team to Char lottcs\·ill e . Th e public spea k e rs, both
boy and girl, were awarded Class J\ championships in the State Contest . 111 spel li ng,
the State Championship was won by the High School R eprcscntatin.: .
The dramatic classes have been d iv ic.lec.I into Express io n, Stagec r;lft a n d Play
P roduction. A student is requi red to first take Expression. This gi\·cs him a basic
knowledge of the subject. After that he advances to the Stagecraft course. where he
learns such things as costuming, set designing, &lt;
rnd t he buildi11g of sets. The m ost
advanced class is the Play Production c lass for it d ea ls mostly \\·i t h acting. J ncluded in this course are voice and diction, make-up, and interpretat io n of the
drama. In this class the students learn cuttings from p lays a nd th ese arc g i ven for

�a group o f students, for Parents' Night, a nd before out&lt;&gt;ide groups. Several oneact plays and a three-act p lay, "Lady Spitfire," were given. T he Department as
a whole presented severa l assemblies, a member of which won the best assembly
trophy. One of the most outstanding presentations was the play, "l\.Ioor Born."
This play was sent to Cha rlottesville. The climax of the year's work was a fouract play " \\.hen Kn ighthood \Vas in Flower." This \Vas a historical play and presented excellent opportu n ities for t he pupil s to apply their knowledge in costuming,
make-up, set designing, and acting. There were two casts for this production.
This was to give more students a chance to test their talents.
The cou rses in dramatic art serve as a laboratory workshop for all students
who are seriously interested in a ny of the theatre a rts. The aim is to emphasize

Th is li ttle and insullic ient space is taken to consecrate and gi, ·c a s m a ll n1eas11rc of app reciation to a ll that is fa ir and clean in athletics. Robert :\eel represented t hat. I le was th e t n'c o f

he has moved from this city ; but J'm sure that he will live in ou r hea rts as lo ng as we li,·c in hi s.

�Our fnothall t ea m! Long after the moths ha\·e eaten up their uniforms, and even longer after they
ha\·c b ee n pushed o ut o f s ight by T ime's in exorable march ; they can look back and say " \ Ve played
football. " Ca11'1 you im agi ne Cranclpap Ki ser wit h the little boy on his knee, saying, " \\'ell, son, as I
recollect, 't\\'as back in '36: an&lt;l the score was 7- 0- -." J\o doubt Kiser would go on to tell the more
gruesome details about the games we won, and only touch lightly the sore spots. ' nnecessary as it may
seem, \\'C feel it best not to do that. The reason for this lies in the fact that we were frequently playing
our best hrand of font ball when we lost. \\·he n the score was against us we really opened up and fought.
Somet imes in \'a in, but we always foug ht.
At the open ing o f t he season e\·en " llunk " ad mitted we might ha\·e a good team . The last t im e
he sa id th a t \\'a s in 1928. whe n we wo n t he state championship. This time he had only finished closing
hi s m o uth wh&lt;.:n th e o ld injury jinx hit us. I t got off to as good a sta rt as we did, only it sta rted earlier.
lkforc C\·cn o ur first kick-off \\'his tle, \\'C recei \·ed the unmerciful news that we were to lose our captain,
" H efty'' :'\ eel, through a mino r heart ailment. From then on we went down like ducks in a shooting
gallery. Frank \\"alto n. regular guard, was lost for the season through an injury to his shoulder. Henry
Kiser, playing full back, follo\\'cd su it with a brok&lt;:n ank~e. These were just minor injuries compared
t o the o ne that occurred wh e n '"Egg" J ackson recel\"ed his report card. It mar li&lt;t\·e been a bloodless

running in th e Salem game.

Charlnttes\·illc. T he four " ·e didn't win fo und \\.illia mson, \\"est \ ·irginia. Richmond, Da1n-ille, and
Petersburg on the lnng end o f the score. The net result of the game \\'ith Portsmouth was nothing. in
fact, no thing to not hing. F rom this you may draw your O\\' n conclusions. They should be: I. \\-e plared

�Basket Ball
Basket Ball has long heen Jefferson's most successful sport. \\'e ha\·e been district champions so
ohc11 the t•111:r:n·crs can inscribe our cups with their eyes shut. but this year we slipped. But while we

This ~ c:1r's team real!~· turned in some tine performances. \\' hat with blisters, and mumps. and
~tu ff. it was on ran· occ:isions that the Startin!? line-up started. In fact. nobody is real sure just what the
staninc li1w up was. Th e high sco ring for t he season was dh·idcd between Caprnin Ed \\'cddle. Rex
~I itcht·ll. and I I arr~· Brown. Bob Blanding played an excelknt floor j!a111e; hut whcnc\·er he found himself alone wi1h Ilic hall. and couldn't help shooting. th e 111an t hat was !?Uarding him usually fainted.

rumor th a 1 he just got tired or shooting at the same old basket and couldn't resist taking a shot at the
0 1ht·r tt·:t111 ' s. Th e o n!~· rub comes in the fact that he made it. That's no W:t)" fo r a four letter man to do .
Th e :&lt;t'ason closed with our being entered in t he \\'ashin1?1on and I.cc T ou rn:unent. I !ere the
cor1qw1i1io11 was r&lt;':tfly fe roc ious. l)cspitc this a nno~· inf? fact we s l:\y cd two rounds. Jn th e first. we beat

STATE C11A~IPIO:\

�Golf
U nde r the tutelage and g uidance o f :\Ir. Persinger, the gol f team has shown
a d eci&lt;l ed imp ro ,·e ment o ve r las t yea r. There has been a ma rked improYement in
both tournament and match play.
The fi rst t im e t he team was under fire was in a matc h with t he alumni. They
were defeated by a narrow margin. Th e second t ime t hey s wung their clubs in
competition was in the State High School T ourna ment at Richmond. Last year in
this sa me to urn ament, on o ur ho me course, we took s ixth place ; a nd this year we
came up to seco nd. \\ .ilbur :\lason was the th ird low indi,·idual scorer fo r the
tournament. Th e th ird agregation we met was Galax, from whom we won easilr.
The next and fina l rournament was held at \\"oodberrT F orest. It was the State
Jnterscholastic T o urnament, in which there were both high schools and prep schools.
l lere, in spite of the stiffer competition; we again won second place, and only three
points out o f first. Ja~es Beckner w~s the s.eco.nc.I lo~v .score r for the tou.rnament.
I !ere also, we entered (,eo rge Fulton 111 the Junior dnnng contest, he being under
sixteen. I n this di,·ision, he won first place; and as an added attraction also won
the senior dri,·ing contest. T he team this year consisted of Otho Price, James
Beckner, \\"ilbur \Ja son, Harry Robertson, Andrew R obertson, and George Fulton,
Jr.

�Cross Country
Cross country, one of our most recentl y o rganized spo rts, ha s n o t . as y et,
enjoyed interscholastic competition . Despite this t he re has b ee n an i nc rea si ng
number of boys interested in this form o f running in the la st t\\·o years. lt ha s
provided excellent training for the distance men o n the trac k team, an&lt;l g i, ·es an
opportunity to those desiring and enjoying this form o f recrea tio n. Th e t ea m this
year was under the direction of \fr. Benne r, vocatio nal teacher he re .
The only run of the season wa s an intramural e,·cnt hel d bet wee n th e hah· es
of the Jefferso n-Lynchburg footba ll game. Th e two mi le co urse contained l\\·o
hills and various surfaces. The time was v ery good consi&lt;lcri ng the course and th e
weather. The race was won by Harvey P il low, with Gro,·er Liggan and \li ll ard
Long in the place and show positions . T h is was a lm ost a rc ,·e rsa l o f la st ~·c ar's
race, in which Liggan took first and Pillow second. J\ lo ,·in g cup is g i,·c n the \\·inne r
each yea r and his name engraved o n it. J\n engraved medal w as also g i,·c n ea c h
man placing.
·with this foundat ion, cross country should soon become popular with the
studen ts. It is hoped that next year it will be possible to sc h ed ul e meets with o utside teams and thus improve o urs. I t would make it m o re interes ting to all concerned, and it is certain t hat Jefferson cou ld m ake an excel lent sho wing in th is s p o rt,
judging from past performances.

�Jayvee Basket Ball
.\Ir. Bishop may grow old before his time, hut that Junior \·arsit~·
Basket Ball T eam was worth it. They e\·en generated enough glor~· to
partially atone for the p!iilanderings of the Junior \ ·arsity Football
squad. Durin~ the season they lost but three games, the b:isket ball team.
l me:in, o r did ~·ou guess. The three they lost were to te:ims superior
both in age and experience. .\t the close of the season, they entered
the local Gold .\lcdal T ourn:1 111ent. They went down in a blaze of glory
in the fi rst round, losing to the .\lcrit Shoe Comp:111r of Salem, 16-26.
B1s11or
The loss was permissablc for _\ Jerit Shoe had am ong its luminaries
se\·era l Roanoke College aces. The game was reall r closer than the score indicates, too. They should
really do something next ~·car, because this year, s-h-h-h, they beat the \·arsity a couple times in practice.
The high scoring for the season rests on the l:iurclcd locks of "Wild Bill'' \\.illiams and "Red"
Boston. Thomas .\lcGraw and Jimmy Hayes put in cheir two points "·orth e\·er so often. too, to help
the cause alon~.
Eo1TOR's ~on: : T here was no squad picture taken of the Junior \·arsit~· Football team because
the members of that organization ha\·e personal reasons for desiring to keep it a secret.

The maj o r production of the year was the three-act play, ":\Irs. :\Ioonlight," by Benn \Y. Levy. The
production was entirely in the hands of the students and was directed by :\Iiss Dlack. To give more students
an opporl11nity for a part in the play, it was presented on two evenings, each with a different cast. Student
directo rs were assigned to each cast. It was an interesting experiment to note the different interpretations given
t he part s by the separate casts. The atkertising, tickets, contact. costumes, make-up. props. and the house were
managed by the st11dent s, and t he stage crew was comprised o f students. Each department in the school conlri lrnted towa rd the finish ed production.

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

�In Our Archives
One morning in September, l928, many shy but expectant six-year-olds proudly entered the portals of
Roanoke's elementary schools, where, soon adjusting themselves to their new environment, t hey spent seven
happy years.
In the fall of 1935, these groups were int roduced into the Freshman year of high school. Two yea rs
later we entered Jefferson High School as members of the Junior Class. H ere, under Studen t Govcrnn1cnt
supervision, we were organized, and Kay Blanding was chosen as our p resident. Miss Matthews, l\ilr. P ersinger, Mr. Craft, and Mr. Platt became facu lty advisers.
On December 3d the class witnessed the adop tion of the Creed of our School in an impressive ceremony.
That spring we began the organization for our senior year, and our v ision of a successful year was
strengthened by the election of Wellford H obbie as President of Student Governm ent.
September 8th found us back at J efferson as seniors, but not at a ll dignified as we had expected. The
first highlight of this memorable year was the election of Beverly F itzpatrick as our president.. The facuity
advisers chosen were Miss Smithey, Miss Moore, Miss Lukens, Miss Stalker, and Mr. Persinger, who have
served us so faithfully by their aid and advice.
October 31st to November 4th marked the period of a m ost successful Citizenship Campaign in J efferson,
the " Triple C" Campaign, with Frances Minter as chairman.
Our Class was well represented in journalistic activities with M a ry Va ughan H cazel as editor of lhe
Jefferson .Yews and Barton Morris as editor of the ACORN.
On December 9th J efferson footlights flashed on the first play of the year, "The Admirable C richton. "
When the new year came, many of us resolved to bring up our gr ades. On January 10th, Lo sh ow we
meant business, our class initiated the H onor Study H a ll, which has proved most successful.
The entire class mourned the passing of Miss Ma ry L. Goode on J anuary 2 1st. She had been a faithful
teacher and guide to many of us in our stu dies. and we heard the news of her passing with sorrow·
Suddenly, midterm exams were upon us. After wading through those, we saw the J efferson quinlet
capture the Western District championship, and beard with pride that Jim B ear, th e captain of our football
team, was chosen for the all-state eleven .
At Columbia University, in the Press Association, the J efferson l\ ews, L' E clro de R oanoke, and lhe Acocrn
all won first places. Upon hearing this our class beamed with pride. Soon we were to learn a no lhe1· thrilling
bit of news, for Peggy Hurt, our representative for the D. A. R. Convenlion , was chosen for the t rip to W ashington as state representative.

On the floor of the gym on April 1st, our class waltzed to the music of the N. B. C . Collegians at our
Senior dance.
The music department returned from the State Music F estival in Richmond, April 22d, bringing home
eight superior ratings.
Black faces adorned our stage April 28th and 29th when "Ebony Escapades " became the second footlight number of the year.
Our "rcd-leUcr" Senior Day was May 5th, which began with the Senior Assembly. Then, laying aside
our caps :tnd gowns, we were off to Lakeside for wholesome frolic, and later to lhc thealcrs for free movies.
''Spooks," our senior play, presented on May 19th, became the grand finale of the year's stage productions.
Passing through the final exams with more or Jess case, we came to June 8th-Commencement- a day
which will live long in the heart of every Senior. Olher dates we may forget, but nothing will dim the memory
of that night when each of us received his diploma as a member of the Senior Class o( '39.

�Student Gover11.me11t
Student Government actiYities for the past year will long be remembered for
their Yariety.
The peak of this year's achievC'ments was the founding of an honor st udy hal l
for the spring semester. The newly furnished cafeteria was opened to all student s
who willingly signed a pledge to act on thei r honor during the period . To c \·cry
pupi l in J efferson , this project has offered a chance during a free peri od to stud y in
s&lt;'hool \'v ithout any disturbing clements.
Because each semester a large number of students enter J efferson H igh School
for the fi rst time, an orientation program was planned to acquain t them with the
H&lt;JBBJE

school's clulJs, its customs, the bui ld ing itself, and with the stud ent government .
One week of each semester was devoted to an extensive campnign fo r "better
citizenship ." Most students wi ll recall the "C. C. C. campaign," mca;1ing coopcra tion.~cleanlincss, ancl courtesy.

�Prefect Cou11cil
After delegates had returned from the Fifth State Student Government ConYention at Nianassas, Va ., a city-wide meeting of student government was planned
and held at Jefferson H igh. Here the activities of the past year and plans for the
future were considered in a round-table discussion.
The most enjoyable parts of Student Government activities have been the
school dances, one at Christmas, under the sponsorship of Student Government,
a second near Easter, under the direction of the Senior Class. and the third, during
graduation week- the Junior-Senior Prom.
Besides these activities there were many minor ones. Among the number may
be mentioned enforcement of the point system, revision of the fire drills, regulated
traffic on the stairs, and the holding of elections.

�The Literary Team
The Literary Team began its season with the district meet at Lynchburg on April 1..J. . The dchal.ng team s
were made up of Thomas Clay, Robert Lufburrow, and Bettie Kues on the affi rmatiH:; a nd Bill Lyo n. :\I a rsha ll
Fishwick, and K athryn Ann Jones on the negative. These defeated both the Lynchburg teams :ind thereby
won the right to participate in t he a nnual state meet of the Virginia Athletic a nd Li terary League in C ha rlottesv ille, on May 12 and 13.
A number of students were sent to the district meet at Da nville on April 28 to rep rcsl'nl Jcffnson. These
representatives were Mary Grady Ayers and Howard Shaw, public speakers : E ,·cly n Ivla in and I Icrhcrl Cooper ,
readers, and Lois H a rp, speller.
Of these, Mary Grady Ayers, Howard Shaw, Evelyn Main, and Lois Harp ach·ancccl lo the slat e m eet at
Charlottesville.
A one-act play, "The Birthday of the I nfanta," was also sent to Charl ottesville. The cast of th is included
Sally Falls. Sandy Thames, Stanley Benton, Calvin Simmons, Cecile Marsha ll , Bi ll Finney, Randa ll J o nes.
and Phil Smythe. The assistant d irector of the play was J o ·woodah l, and the technici an was J oh n R idgeway.
A poem, " The Desert," by J ames Payne, and a short story, "To a Li ttle Girl w ith Hr:1id s," by Bc:t Ly
Lee Bryant, were also sent to the University of Virginia as literary entries in poetr y and shor t stor y \\'rilin g .

Soc~ety ·

Th~

Jefferson C hapter of the National Honor Society was established last year to create an enthusiasm
for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the
developmen t 'of character.
The membership requirements are the same as last year with.the exception of one change. To give students
coming to Jefferson in their senior year a chance to become members, the clause requir ing at least one year in
this school has been dropped. Now, any high junior or senior. who has a scholarship average of "G" with no
fa ilures and who has a m inimum number of points on activities. is eligible for membership.
The reading contest was the ou tstanding project of the organization this year. A prize was awa rded to
the student- not a member of the Honor Society- who made the best report on books read by May 15 .

�The Speech Department

One of the most interesting and educational departments at Jefferson is the Speech Department. This department includes special classes for debating, reading, spelling, public speaking and dramatics. --rhesc classes
I

organize teams to compete in various literary meets, and a play is sent to Charl ottesvi lle fo r the State contest.
The outcome, in general, has been very successful for ] efferson.
The Dramatic Department, itself, includes expression, stagecraft, and play prnduclio n. In exp ression,
the training of the speaking voice is emphasized; in stagecraft, the production of plays, and finally, the di rect ion of plays, in play production . The stage crew, made up of students, headed by John Ridgeway and Harold
Brooks, and supervised by Mr. Bass, has worked very ha rd on a ll productions this year.
Plays presented throughout the year include the following: Two assembly plays, ''The Sweet Meat Game, ''
and "Why the Chimes Rang," the major production, "Admirable C richton," a nd the Senior play, "Spooks."
"Why the Chimes Rang," the Christmas assembly, was selected the best assembly of the yea r.
Th&lt;:sc plays have been presented by the students with the aid of t he faculty and u nder the direction of
Miss Frances Rc:c,·cs, acting head of the department.

�Fleur-de-Lys
The activities of the Fleur-de-Lys have been widely extended this year. Under the leadership of l\llary Louise R oberts
and an efficient associate staff, the prestige of this organization has increased greatly. The first definite act of the club was
the successful launching of a membership drive terminating in a soiree fran ca ise at the home of F lora Huff.
The outstanding theme of this year's organization was the offering of monograms in the shape of F leurs-de-Lys. a warded
according to a system of cred!ts giv~n for acti,·it ies in the F~·ench Department. This was something entirely nc\Y to the
F rench Club. It has been received with a great d eal of en thusiasm and has met \Yith much success
Late in the winter the club sponsored a·· scavenger hunt, " uniquely French. for the enjoyment of t he members and their
rricnds.
There has bc"n an increased membership this session. which probably mny be attri bu ted to the definite effort made earl\'
in the year to obtain members. A renew~d interest has .been sho,~1 11 in the club by French students. The French Club;s
enthusiasm has sprea d throughout the entire school , and its act1v1t1es as a school organization arc becoming steadily better
known .

L'Echo de Roanoke
L'Echo d e Roanoke has engaged in ma ny of the literary
acLivitics in the school, in the state- a nd in the nation , and
with the cooperation of the Flcur-cle-Lys, it has received a
number of honors. Honorable mention was given it at the
Southern Inte rscholastic Press Association Convention at
Lexington, N ovember 4th- 5th, a nd late in the winter it
received a first-place rating at the Columbia Scholastic
Press Association Convention at Columbia University in
New Y ork. This \Vas a n improvement O\'er the second-place
scoring of the previous year. Th ~ paper is st ill aspiring to
go higher, despite heayy competition.

�The year of 1938- 1939 has been one of numerous successes for the J efferson High School Band.

PirsL

among the many activities came the football games with the musicians serving as an inspiration to the team
and the students. At every game the instrument-bearers were present.
On November 12 the band escorted the football team and cheering section to Petersburg.
These by no means ended the activities during the football season, for parades, rad io broadcasts, and pep
meetings played a big part.
Our band altendcd the Southwest Virginia Musical Festiva l, held in R adford on March 25, which was a
very colorfu l and in tercsling experience for music lovers. The J efferson Band a lso went to \tVinchestcr to the
Apple Blossom Festival, where t hey received a high rating.
Mr. Byrl ey is director of the band and is assisted by Ha rold Woodson as captain. Harold Woodson and

�The Girls' Club
For years the Girls' Club has been the largest club of its kind in J efferson High School. Its membership
has been composed of the finest of high school girls. The purpose of the organization has been to find and give
the best.
Sponsored by the Y. W . C. A. wit h Helen Lewis as president, Miss Elizabeth Conwell as Girl Reser ve
Secretary, a nd Miss Nellie Smithey as faculty advisor. the Girls' Club has had a most eventful year.
Installation was held at the First Baptist Church with all the Girl R eserves in the city attend ing and,
as usual, this was a very inspiring and impressive service.
The annual setting-up conference was held at Camp Tree Top, to which went the officers a nd members o f
the cabinet for t he year. The social calendar opened with t he tea for t he new mem bers and was followed
closely by a footba ll luncheon in the midst of the football season.
The;re are certain activ ities in t he Girls' Club that have become almost tradition. Among them, the banqu&lt;:t held with the Hi-Y Club each year, the Mother-Father-Daughter Banquet, a nd the Faculty Banquet;
but none arc quite so anticipa ted as the Sweetheart Banquet in the spring.
This year the Jefferson Gi rls' Club, together with the other Gi rl Reserves of R oanoke, sponsored a circus

Those who have previously taken part in the week-end at Camp Tree Top in the spring, look forward to it
through the year as a delightful, but sad repetition of past years-while those who have never experienced it
await it with anticipation, for it is a most inspiring time.
The E aster assembly was arranged by the devotional chairman and given by the members in the school
auditorium on Thursday before the Easter holidays. This service showed the efforts of each girl to liYe up to
t he ideals of the club.
As so many of our members arc returning to J efferson next fa ll , we are anticipating a most significant year.

�The Senior Hi-Y
The '38-'39 session of t he Senior Hi-Y has enjoyed a very successful year under the effective sponso rship
of :\fr. Platt. The club membership has greatly surpassed the number of members of last year , the total numbcr

say that had they played later in
the season. the J cffs wou Id have
won.

�After nmning easily through a
weak Radford team, \Yho although not in the class \Yith the
l\llagicians. played grand ball. the
boys played a hard game and

�The 1938- 1939 basket ball team was perhaps the best athletic team Jefferson
had this year. The men of the hardwood marched through to the Western District
C hampionship with comparati,·e ease.
Thc l\fagicians beat Salem, Da1ffillc, Lynchburg, each twice, and had beaten
Hampton in midseason at home. But when they traveled to the coast town to
p lay the Eastern District champs in the play-off, they lost a tough battle to the seacoast boys, who then went on to capture the state crown.
Although Coach Hurt admitted the boys had played better in previous encounters, he said he had no a libis to offer because" a truly great team is great when
it ncC'ds to be most."
O ur captain ::ind center , Rex l'vl itchell, copped state high scoring honors and
was named on Lhc al l-state quint; our ball-handling wizard, Jesse Boston , was
named on the second team and lacked only one ,·ote of making the first squad .
The '38-'39 edition of hardwood l'vlagicians was truly a great team. Incidentally,
they owe a lot of their success to a great spor t and coach, "Hunk" Hurt.

the tutelage of Coach S. I. C raft, has gone through thci r tough
schedule with but one defeat-that coming from Lhc C\'Cr-slro ng
vVoodberry Forest team.
Magician cindermen showed their strength when they missed
winning the Duke Interscholastic meet by the sligh t margin o f onchalf of a point. T heir crowning achievement, howe ,·cr, came when
they handed John Ma rshall a 67- 50 defeat, the first defeat in a
dual meet that the Richmond school has ever taken.
Our well balanced team gained a ha rd-earned victory over
High- the first in six years.
We've had a track team this year of which J cfkrso n will long

Although the 1939 netmen had a very poor
season this year, most of it can be attributed to
inexperience. Despite this, the boys fought hard
in each match and took t heir losses like true
soortsmen . The team missed Zane Williams and
Charlie Fitch, who dropped ou t of school before
the season opened.

So this is really Jefferson ! Y cs, there were the book

Latin,

and

Col l&lt;.:ge

Algebra to "slide by" ! T o her delight, however, r\lice

���ACTIVITIES
Alice found, on arriving at the ~Iad Tea Party, that
although the three hosts were sitting crowded a t one
end , the "table was large and there was plenty of room."
~'hen at Jefferson she got on to the inside of things,

she realized the plcasu res were many, the clubs \\'ere
numerous, the publications, outstanding, a nd co mmittee
work, interesting. She found he rse lf in a constant w hi rl
of c lubs, dances, and inevitable m eetings. There was
no question in her mind as to how to spend her time
for, as the .\ l ad Hatter had said, "You must treat time
well: he is not to be beaten!"

�TllE SPEECH

DEP A RT~1 E N T

This year, as well as in former years, the Speech Department of
Jefferson has been one of the most prominent in student activities.
This interesting department is composed of students participating
in debating. reading, public speaking, spelling and dramatics , which
form teams that compete in various literary meets. This year the department was enlarged by the installation of a choric verse speaking
course, which is devoted to the recitation of stories, poems, etc., in
harmonv.
Certainly, dramatics is the most important division of this department, and its part in the yea r's work was highly satisfactory. The
dramatic classes, which cover all the phases of stage work, are divided
into three sections : Speech, Stagecraft, and Play Production. The
Speec h Classes are devoted to the training of posture, voice and expression; Stagecraft, to the essentials of producing plays, such as
costuming, make- up, scenery, etc.; and P lay Production, to the presentati o n and direction of plays.
The first dramatic production of the year was the presentation of
the Christmas Assembly in which the entrancing play, " \ t\f h y the
Chimes Rang," was given, and the major production, the annual
costume play, was the romantic comedy, ''Dorothy Vernon of Haddon
Hall. " The department also presented ' 1 Twe11tieth-Century Lullaby"
as its Charlottesville play.
Without doubt, th e department's s uccess thi s yea r \\'as due to
the competent and capable direction of :\Iiss Clara Black, head of
the depa rtment.

CHOIR
l ' nder .'.\ l r. Griffey's direction, the Choir and Glee Clubs have
made wonderful progress. The probable solution to the outstanding
work done this year is the credit class in Choir given five times a week.
From this class the vested Choir and G lee Clubs are chosen.
L ast fall the :\ l usic Department presented Gilbert and Sullivan's
" Pi nafore" to a packed house. The Choir helped in many assembl ies
and presented two music assemblies . To cap this year's work, the
Choir and both G lee Clubs won a superior rating at the State l\lusic
Festival in Ri c hm ond.
This is the first year all three groups have received such hi gh
honors. \i\' ith practice and hard work, they hope to keep their laurel s.

�PEP CLUB
The Pep Club was organ ized on ly last fall, through the untiring
efforts of : a ry Evelyn Pearsall and
M

I iss Edith l\ l oore. It has, in

this short time, brought into its ranks more than five hundred sch oolspirite d Jeffersonians, who are pledged to support all high school
activities and foster active school morale.
Meetings have been held on school tim e, with student or faculty
speakers to boost the footba ll and basket ball attendance, the Christmas dance, and the plays. In the latter part of f\ I ay, a picnic was held
at Fishburn Park as a climax to th e year's work.
To obtain membership, it is necessary to know all important Jefferson yells and possess a constructive schoo l spir it. Any student is
el igible for membership.

Next year's object ive is one thousand

The gir ls' sports program for this year, sponsored by the G. A. A.,
consisted of volley ball , basket ball, baseball, badminton, ping-pong,
tennis , and k ick -pins. T here we re teams in these sporrs from each
physical education class. A tournament in which Sophomore, Junior,
and Senior teams compe ted against each other, was one of the high
s pots of the yea r.
Play days were p lanned at the close of each major spo rt. The
vo l ley ball and basket ball play days were held at J efferson. ~Iiss
H arrison appointed leaders from the advanced phys ical education
c lasses, and the teams from vVood ro\\' \Vi !son, Lee Juni or, Jackson
J u nior, and J\Ionroe were invited to take part. Special sport play days
proved most popular and beneficial.
A mixed doubles tournament in badminton and ping-pong was also
spo nso red by the Ph ys ical Education Department. This is the third
yea r for this tournament, and boys and g irls seem more interested
111 it than eve r before.
The seaso n ended with a baseball play day at \Vasena Park.

Alice arrived breathless ly at \lahcr Field and observed
"little men in uniform running out upon the field. They were
always tripping over something or other, and whenever o ne went
down, several m o re fell over him , so that th e ground was
soon covered with little heaps of men. "
It was all very confusing, but her attention was at th is point
directed to the lion and the uni corn, c hasing one another in a
great cloud of dust. Th ey ran al 1 ove r the city, so Al ice concluded
that they must be cross-country runners or some thing of the sort,
but it was hard to make out exac tl y what the y were doing. l t
seemed as if they were boxing or fencing. Alice rubbed h er eyes,
looked again, and saw the two contesting for the title of King of
Sports . .'.'vlaybe that wasn' t what the kingship was, but it was a
crown of some sort that they were fighting for. 'Then they sa t
down and began to cat while a messe nger entered and recited

against Thomas Jefferson. T hey saw Coll ins' accurate punts hit the 10 and 20-yard
lines and .\lartin's place-kicks sail th rough the uprights for extra points. They saw
fights and near-riots when an oppos in g team attempted to sa lvage a foot ball which
was technica lly ours, and lots of other less exciting happe nings.
Yes, I think we can say th at our team had a good, if not outsta nding, yea r. \ iVe

The 1939-+o Basket Ball te am of Jefferso n was, perhaps, the most irreg ul ar ath letic team o f
the school. They lost more "sure" victories and won more "certain" defea ts than in anv ot h e r
recent season.
They defeated D anville and L ane, each twi ce, with ease. Th ey lost to L ynchbu rg th e first e nco unter, in a last quarter rally, after having led at th e h a ! f by a score of 22-8. T h ey won the
first game from Andrew Lewis by a great margin, but lost the second in the biggest surprise of
the season. \leanwhile, D anville had defeated L ynchburg in a close encoun ter. Thu s, if Jefferso n were tO defeat Glass, it would bring about district play-off like th e one of 1938- 1939 season.
At the end of th e half, the two teams were tied, but as before, we were defeated by a last q u arter
ra ll y.

Others who were outs tanding we re Daryl \Vebb, pole vault; Houston Sizer, hi g h and

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

                  <text>The Davis Photographic Records contain approximately 12,200 black and white images, negatives, glass plate negatives and glass lantern slides.  Black and white prints vary in size between 5"x7", 8"x10" and various oversized prints; 8"x10" glass plate negatives; 5"x7" and 8"x10" negatives; 3"x5" glass lantern slides. All Davis images can be dated circa 1904-1968.  There are images with Davis' signature that predate 1904, but they are believed to have been taken by Chandler Studio, the photography firm bought out by Davis in 1904.  Although the majority of Davis' images are marked with his signature in the lower right corner, it is important to note that not all of the images are marked.  Davis rarely recorded identifying information on the images. For this reason, many of his images are unidentifiable.  The majority of images from the Davis Collection seen on this database are street scenes, businesses and points of interest in Roanoke and its vicinity where it was possible to at least minimally identify them.   While the Virginia Room has a large number of portraits from Davis' collection, they are not represented here.  An index of all identified portraits is available in the Virginia Room.  </text>

Introduction:
The Mae Moore Papers is a collection of genealogical research materials collected by
Mae Dillon Moore over the course of more than 30 years. The bulk of the material
relates to the Akers, Altick, Blankenship, Dillon, Ferguson, Greer, Perdue and Smith
Families of Virginia, though many other surnames are included.
Biographical Note:
Theda Mae Dillon Moore was born on 17 August 1917 in Franklin County, Virginia to
Grover Silas Dillon and Julina Wilmouth Chitwood. An avid genealogist, Moore
researched her family history for over 30 years, with most of her efforts focused on the
Dillon Family. Well-known in Southwest Virginia genealogical circles, Moore
contributed to the research of the Marvin Raney Collection (also in the Virginia Room)
on families of Bedford and Franklin Counties. Mae Dillon Moore passed away on 10
November 1998. At the time of her death, Moore was working on publishing her
research into a 3-volume set called Dillon: Dillon &amp; Allied Families. While she did not
live to see her work published, it was published posthumously in 2000.
Scope and Content:
The Mae Moore Papers consist, of records, research notes, publications, family group
sheets, news clippings and correspondence. The majority of research includes the
following surnames: Akers, Altick, Bird, Blankenship, Booth, Chambers, Chitwood,
Dillon, Divers, Dupuy, English, Ferguson, Fisher, Fowler, Greer, Haynes, Holland,
Hughes, Pasley, Perdue, Saunders and Smith. Most of the research material is related to
Virginia counties, primarily Franklin County; however, connections include the
surrounding states of North Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia, Maryland and Kentucky.
Research begins in the 1600s and seems to end in the mid to late 20th Century. The
majority of materials are letter-sized, with one box containing legal-sized copies of
records.

�BAD DAY lo gel planes off. But with guidance
from experienced crews. there is little danger,
i1 you do your work well. It's like a team, and

the iob is to gel all the planes in the ai r quick!·)'
and safely.
Your time is almost here. Strong hands wheel
your ship into place. The officer on the bridge
keeps the shi p headed into the w ind. The officer of the deck waves you forward and into
position. You are guided by the skillful handling crew at the 0. D.'s direction. His striped
baton points horizontally over the bow. You
roar down the deck. There is danger of going
over the edge, but there a re two long, yellow
lines painted on the deck to give you your bearings. You are flying over the water before you
know it.
The school is an aircraft carrier. The iob is to
get the students off, and a certain amount of
discipline is required, as is cooperation and
teamwork. There are efficient bridge officers to
guide the ship and to keep its purposes and
aims in view, and experienced officers to direct
the taking-off of the planes.
Not all grim science and iron discipline is this
business of taking-off from an aircraf l carrier. It
is something that, like this business of going to
school. affords a real thrill after a while.

��I

To the faculty and students of Jefferson who have coorerated so splendidly in making this a successful schoo1
year, I am sincerely grateful.
Mav I offer congratulations to Jefferson's graduates. and
mv sincere wishes for their happiness in the living of full,
useful lives during the important years in which they now
enter.

Sincerely,

�LONE! The thrill of sol o flight cannot be overestima ted.

The flying cadet

and circles a few limes.

takes off alone

He is now a flyer,

but he is by no means capable of actual duty.
The most intensified work is yet to come. On
him a good deal of the attention o f the training
:;eld is turned. He must learn to hand le his ship
well. He must learn its, and his own, capabi l ities
and limitations. When he has learned to feel
absolutely at home in the air, there are ma!1y
tasks still to be mastered. He has come to be
looked upon as a pilot who is not y et the finished product, but who now actually has a
future ahead. He is the most significant man at
the training field. He is sligh tly looked up lo by
those students who have not yet begun the ir
solo work.
The senior is one of the most important men
al his training station, too.

At times h e may

think of himself as being pretty good. He somel!mes thinks that when he has graduoted he
will become a finished p roduct, able to utilize
his knowledge to meet all sorts of situations.
The solo is only beginning for the senior, too.
He must assimilate the experience he gained in
past years of high school. In other words. he
must rise above his past training, for the r&lt;=&gt;al
learning for actual cl11!y is yet to come.

LYING AT LAST! The first flight of a student
pilot in company with his instructor, is indeed, a thrill. He is allowed to put the plane
through simple maneuvers with the instructor
ready to take over and help him out. He will no~
fly alone for a long while yet. He is secure from
the threat of danger while his instructor is with
him, and yet he is flying! - actually flying ! He
is not on his own . He will not be severely
blamed for his mistakes, for the long road of real
instruction lies ahead of him after he has
learned to fly by himself.
The high school junior is, perhaps, the most
secure, safe, and self-satisfied man in the school.
He is quite safe from the threat of impending
graduation. The years stretch before him in a.
happy sequence o f activities, ath letics, elections,
spring concerts, costume plays, and dancesthese are the things of which he has just come
to be a part. He is really enjoying going to high
school. The backbone of the school, on whose
zest for participating in a rounded school program depends the fate of many an activity of
hjs school. he likes his flyi ng. On the whole,
a happy time and a full program with better
hopes for the future are the elements o f the
Junior Flight.

�EFORE the student pilot is able to fly, it is
necessary that he understand the fundamentals
of flight, and master fully its technical intricacies.
It is in GROUND SCHOOL that he learns these.
In Ground School the student pilot sits in a
classroom, more like English or math than like
flying school. Here he studies the theory of
flight. He also studies the airplane itself. He
helps with other student pilots to remove the
cowling and study the motor.
Here he acquires much knowledge which ai
the time seems quite pointless and unnecessary.
He is made to do things which are for his own
and others' safety; but sometimes he does not
realize their value.
The Jefferson student in his initial year, the
sophomore year, feels, al times, much the same
way. "Why learn that? Why that way? We
want to fly." The spirit of dangerous adventure,
the desire to try the interesting and thrilling,
creates in us all an impatience in the fundamental work which we find so necessary later.
The high school sophomore learns groundwork.
He learns how to go lo high school and, like the
student aviator, he enjoys it. Enjoy it we must,
and enjoy it we do, but we do not lose sight of
the fact that it is groundwork, and will be o f
greater value than we sometimes realize.

which, in spite of its artistic effect and thrilling appearance. is. indeed, very functiona l and
practical. In any military organization there is
an advantage in each unit's having its place.
Formations in training are extremely important. They teach the student pilot many invaluable things, chief among which is to control
his plane perfectly. They teach him to take
orders unquestionably and, most important, the
necessity of cooperation and teamwork i1 anything is to be accomplished.
In high school activities the participants learn
some of the same things stu:lent pilots learn in
formation flying. They learn precision of control- that is, to recognize and exercise their capabilities to the best advantage. They learn that
cooperation is invaluable. They learn the beauty
and thrill of an organized effort. And they are
impressed with the fact lhat, like a formation, an
organized effort is much more formidable.
Formation flying is hard, and to participate in
it is a challenge to the separate flying ability of

each. It is a test of our ability to really utilize
our talents and energies for a definite purpose.
Formations. like school activities, are not for
certain types, but for all. There are formations
flown by ail ships from the speedy attack planes
of the aircraft carrier to the huge patrol bombers.

�STUDENT GOVERNMENT AT JEFFERSON

S~udent

TUDENT Government work for this year will
long be remembered for the variety of its
activity . Two orientation programs have been
sponsored in order to acquaint all new students
with the school clubs, regulations, the build ing,
and Student Government itself. Following the
organization of the classes, George Hughe s, Tom
Thornton, and Miss Edith Moore w e re sent as
delegates to the Southern Student Government
Association Convention al Tulsa. Oklahoma. The
Pep Club was reorganized and swelled its membership to 500. This group sponsored pep rall ies
over the radio and parades before football
games, besides boosting school activities. Gala
plans were presented on the annual Old Grads'

S

Council
Day. These included a mammoth parade, broadcasts, booths downtown, and the firs t a lumni
dance. The Christmas dance proved to be one
of the most en joyable activities o f the fall
semester.
Following the ho lidays came a clean-up campaign which led to revision of the lunch system
rules and allowing students lo go to the lawn
after finish ing their lunch. The City Student
Government Association held three meetings,
all at Jefferson, one in the fall and two in the
spring. Other projects included re vision of the
Point System, enforcemen t o f the locker monitor
system, movie d~•Y rules, regula tion of fire drills,

traffic on the stairs, and the election of officers. Successful plans were formulated by which offenders
of Student Government rules are tried in committee
meetings.
Climaxing a successful year, delegates were sent
to the Virginia State Student Government Association
convention at Alexandria on May I and 2. Officially
representing the school were Paul Long, Martha Patterson, Jean Pugh a nd Harvey Smallwood.

�HONOR SOCIETY
T HE National Honor Society is composed of
that group of students who are consistent in
upholding standards of achievement throughout
the year. The requirements are that the person
be either a junior or a senior, that he have an
average of G on credit subjects, that he secure
at least three activity points. The last requirement is observed so it cannot be said that the
members are a Jot of bookworms and all that the
word implies. Although members are diligent
in school work, they also possess the old school
spirit and loyalty, and prove ii before they become members.
This year the membership reached fifty-one
and surprisingly enough-or, maybe it isn't a
surprise. the girls outnumber the boys! Maybe

the boys are much more active on a basebali
diamond or football gridiron!
Dr. J. Manning Potts gave an inte resting address on the club's assembly program. He was
introduced by the president, Susanne Edmunds,
who told the purposes of the organization. These
purposes are fourfold: to create an enthusiasm
for scholarship, to promote worthy leadership, to
stimulate a desire to render service, and to encourage the development of character in pupils
of Jefferson. The following are the officers:
President, Susanne Edmunds; vice president,
Lee Williams; secretary, Maury Strauss. and
treasurer. Ruth Hancock. These led the club in
trying to fulfill these p urposes.

Yet, in our case, ii is understandable, because
our speech department, possessing an enviable
reputation, is never content to rest on its laurels.
In the past session, it has given the beautiful

�JUNIOR CLASSICAL LEAGUE

T

HE members of the Junior Classical League
believe the civilizations of G reece and Rome
help us to understand our modern world and so
keep alive the torch of ancient civilizations.
In accordance with this program, Anne Bailey,
president, has presented to the League several
outstanding programs. But despite the very intellectual impression given, ii, loo, has a lighter
side. This year a Christmas party was given.
In addition to other activities, it also sponsors
the Latin newspaper. "The Roanoke Roman." It
had reason to be very proud of it because this
paper won first place rating al both the C. S.
P. A. in New York and the S. I. P. A. in Lexington. Va.

EGARDLESS of whether we are enrolled in
one of the French classes, we are each and
e ve ry one proud o f our French Department. It is
ve ry active in sch ool affairs, its assembly being
one that the students anticipate with pleasure.
This year it was an original play by those two
anti-Hitlerites, Marion Jeffries and Andre Fallwell. It was concerned with the rise and fall of
Hiller.
As usual. it was well represented in the
French Tournament conducted at Salem. and
carried off high h onors .
On the social side we have the Fleur-de-Lys,
under the leadership of President Jean Dot
Roller, Vice President Margaret Bloodworth. Secretary Marion Jeffries and Treasurer Joe Holmes.
A French party was given at the h ome of Jane
Smith.
Monograms may be won by points on activities in the club or on the paper, "L'Ech o de Roanoke ." The latter is now in its seventh year and
its birthday was celebrated by winning the cup
a t the S. I. P. A. and first place award at the
C. S. P.A.

�JEFFERSONIAN LITERARY SOCIETY

HE Jeffersonian Litera~ Society- an imposing name
in honor of a great literary man-hopes that it has
lived up to its name this session. Its purpose has been
to arouse interest in debating and speaking, to create
good fellowship, and to aid in worthy school activities.
While Jefferson liked his fiddle, so do the boys, their
entertainment. There has been the annual barn dance
when all dressed up appropriately and enjoyed themselves accordingly; a hike, after which the customary
foot lotions were in demand; a hay ride, no doubt a reaction from the first two, and the new features of a banquet and a literary contest. The presidents have been
Ernest Dixon and Harry Cohn.

girl to participate
once a week in programs conceived

members. Whatever

have been aroused

English classes may
be exercised in the
programs of the
Martha Washington.
Its assembly of the year was a Mickey Finn
of the footlights- a real success. "Mr. Ghost
Goes to Town," an original play given by the
group, offered amusement to the entire student body. The other feature of the assembly,
in contrast with the Iirst, was the installation
o f new officers.
A basket ball game, M. W. L. S. vs. Faculty,
was fostered, ending in the faculty's favor to
the tune of 17-1. There are just too many
good p layers in the faculty that know their
basket ball! In the spring, a radio program
was given which was another original drama .
The two leaders have been Elizabeth Olivie r
and Mary Louise Nelson.

�JUNIOR HI-Y

THE Junior Hi-Y has as its purpose the creating and maintaining of better Christian standards of living throughout the school and community. It accomplishes this purpose through
its four planks--clean speech, clean living, clean
athletics and clean scholarship.
Supper meetings are held every Tuesday evening at the local Y. M. C. A., and just to make
sure of the quality and digestibility, the suppers
at the meetings this year have been supervised
by the mothers of several of the members. The
programs of these meetings have consisted of
talks and discussions by several of Roanoke's
leading citizens--citizens who are able, by long
experience, to guide and point the march
through life by their signposts, the four planks.
The first main activity of the Junior Hi-Y this

year was a joint meeting of the Junior and Senior
Hi-Y's. Other activities have been the underprivileged boys' banquet, tru th conference,
Ladies' Night, Mothers' Night, Fa thers' Night, a
hay ride and the sending of delegates to the district Hi-Y conference, which was he ld a Salem,
Va.
That's a long list, but a good time has been
had "by all" at "each and every one." For example, on the hay ride to Camp Johnson, we
recall an evening of fun. There we played
basket ball, baseball, ate a "genu-ine homecooked" meal and enjoyed story-telling and
group singing. Visualize the g roup en joying
each of these activities, and you have a pictu re
of this wholesome, friendly club.

�SENIOR HI-Y

C

LEAN living. clean speech, clean sportsmanship and clean scholarship--high ideals.
these. but they are the aims of the Senior Hi-Y.
Just attend one of the supper meetings to observe good fellowship and healthy ambitions!
W e may feel sure that so Jong as these ideals
are held up today. we need not fear that the
country is a doomed one.
The supper meetings are interesting ones. and
have been highlighted by the presence and
good speeches of several guest speakers. Supper meetings are evidently good things, for. in
spite of the heated discussions. no members get
mad while the "inner man" is being fed.
Besides benefiting from the programs, members have enjoyed many interesting events as

the district conference, the hay ride, the truth
conference, an outing al Camp Johnson, Babies'
Night, Fathers' Night, and the Alumni Banquet.
Probably the most important and interesting
task this year was the delivery of the Christmas
baskets. This was a great responsibility, yet it
was taken in earnestness and carried out in an
able and efficient way.
In the fall the leaders were: President, Josh
Vaughan; vice president, Bill Spencer; secretary, Charles Hunter; treasurer, Roy Elliott; corresponding secretary, Harry Ellio tt. The spring
officers. in the same order, were Dudley Jackson, Bill Butler, Russell Armentrout, Lewis Long,
and Raymond Heck.

�LITERARY TEAM

THE

Literary team is Jefferson's group of talented and
lucky people who compete with
other schools for glory-not
athletic! Spelling, reading, debating and public speaking are
their weapons. The desire to
bring back good game in the
way of honors for Jefferson is
assuredly one of their objectives.

CHEER LEADERS

Athletic glory is sought after also and, when
that line starts to weaken, the cheer leaders step
up, and with a "hep-hep," straighten it again.

STAGE CREW

Also important are our "angels with dirty
faces"-the stage crew.

�COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT
I N the Commercial Department are trained
the future secretaries, accountants, and
business executives who hope to secure positions in the very near future. In Jefferson each
and every department is dependent in a large
way upon the typists of this department. Our
publications would never be published except for their untiring e fforts and willing aid.
Organized a few years ago and g rown to a
considerable size, the Commercial C lub is a
formidable one . The officers are as follows:
President, Evelyn Koegal; vice president,
Neisler Williams; secre tary , Virginia Lambert;
treasurer and reporter, Mary Wiley. This
clu b strives to develop its members more
thoroughly in business knowledge and social
life. Its meetings are of great interest. At
these, often, gues t speakers have been presented. The social even t of the year was the
skating party . On this occasion all were
pleased to watch a few o f the teachers unbend and join into the spirit of the party.

FOOTBALL
P ROSPECTS for the football squad in the early
part of the season were not e xceptional. Returning fro:n last year's strong squad were but
four starters. However, in only a few weeks

that soundly trounced its early opponents.

outstanding on defense was David Smy the, who
played the o ther end position. Bobs McConaghy
and Jack Coulter were an invincible pair who
played the tackle positions. These two could
always be counted en to play an exceptional
game. At the guard positions were Clyde Hairfield, whose hard-figh ting spirit was an inspiration to his team mates, and Alex McClure , dynamite b locker. Orie Martin and Carlton Brown
alternated at the center position . Both were
exceptional.
As able reserves the Magicians had Penn
Vaughan and Dudley Jackson at tackles. Sam
Bohon and James Butts received much service

WHAT TO EXPECT
Although the l 940 season was a very successful one, the prospects for next year are even
brighter. There will be but one addition to the
schedule in the form of Wilson High, of Portsmouth. Back again will be Danville, Maury Hi
and Granby Hi from Norfolk, Marshall Hi and
Thomas Jefferson Hi of Richmond, Petersburg,
Salem and Lynchburg. Returning to star for
Jefferson once more will be eight lettermen and
those coming up from Junior Varsity and 'B"
team . With an experienced team, playing teams
that we have played before, truly we can look
forward to a most successful season.

�BASKET BALL

THE Jefferson High Basket Ball Team of 1941 is
one of which we can justly be proud. The
team not only won the district championship but
also annexed the state title, an honor we have
not received since 1935.
At the beginning of the season our prospects
were excellent. With five lettermen returning,
Captain Watt Ellett, Bill Flint, Lewis Long, Harry
Elliott and Harry Walton, and with the able addition of Jimmy Akers, the squad was truly an experienced one. Under the careful coaching of
A . D. "Hunk" Hurt, the team was able to gain
early victories over George Washington of Danville, Lewis High of Salem, Lane High of Charlottesville, and Glass High of Lynchburg. The
squad, d uring these encounters, showed excellent teamwork combined with the "will to
win"! However, following these were a second
defeat of Andrew Lewis High and G eorge Wash-

ington High, which clinched the district championship
for the Magicians. Next came a shocking defeat at the
hands of Glass High, which, although it did not affect
the championship, did mar an almost perfect season.
One of the most exciting encounter:_;
of the season was the state semi-finai
play-off against John Marshall of Richmond. Although the Magicians led most
of the way, we were able to win only
by a small margln. Particularly exceptional in this game were the ball-hawking of Akers, the passing of Flint and
the careful shooting of Captain Ellett.
Next came the final play-off to determine a s tate champion against Maury
High of Norfolk. All the stalwarts performed creditably with Long, Akers and
Flint still outstanding. The Norfolk boys
played excellent ball but were not up
to the standard set by the Mag icians.
Among the many things tha t led to the
success of our team must be classified
the fine relief w o rk o f Billy Atkinson, Jack
Walton,
Petticrew, Nick Munger and Jack Burnett.

OACH S. I. Craft has brought our track
team through another season. This
year, as before, the squad has won many
glorious victories.
Throughout the entire season many have
shown themselves lo be exceptional. Outstanding was Captain Alvin Smith, who
completed his fourth year with the Magicians this season. In each of those four
years, Smith has proven himself lo be one
of the best milers and half-milers in the
South. For the past two years, Dick West,
and this season, Marvin Fairchild, have
also run these events with much success.
Probably the most versatile man on the
squad was Harry 'Nalton, who ran the half
and also competed in the broad jump and
high jump.
In the "440" event, Sammy Rea, Perk Hazlegrove, and Bobs
McConaghy led the way with Rea and Dan Holt also competing
in the "220" and "100 ." However, Andre Fall well and John Riddick, in the low hurdles, and Riddick and Walter Thomasson
jumping the higher timber also proved a great blessing to
Coach Craft as the season progressed. In the high jump, Thomasson and Walton were outstanding, while Walton and Holl led
the broad jumpers. In this past season, Daryl Webb has ranked
himself among the best poie vaulters in the state .
In the weight class, the Magicians were sadly lacking. However, Don Brown , in the javelin and discus events, McConaghy
with discus and Staples Engleby with the shot, gained some
points.

HIS year
had, probably, the most
T successful Jeffersontrack season in the h istory
indoor
of the school. Although the sport is comparatively new to the Magician trackmen, a g reat
many boys turned out for practice and, during
the following month, the materia l shaped up
into a threatening team.
The C ra fts men lost by a narrow margin to the
all-powerful "Ta r Heel" freshme n of U. N. C.
The following week, on February 22, the team
polished th e ir shoes and again took the maroon
a nd white to U. N. C . for the Southern Confere nce games, the "derby" of Southe rn trackmen.
Although they didn't win, they placed second in a field of twelve topnotch high and prep
schools, of which Thomas Jefferson, of Richmo nd, eme rged victor.

Word of the approach of the enemy has just
been received. Immediately the !!eel prepares to
depart from its base and give battle. The men below deck recheck the engines. Each ship is alive
with activity as the call. "Battle Stations," is
sounded. The fleet admiral has taken his place on
the flag bridge, where he will direct the movements and strategy of the entire fleet.
Gracefully the fleet steams out to sea. with each
ship occupying a definite place in the line of
battle. Every man goes about his duties with the
grim realization that a wrong move may spell dis·
aster for him and his shipmates. As a result. each
individual takes the winning of a battle as a per·
sonal task, sacrificing personal feelings for the
good of the ship. Each man. each ship, knows its
job and is confident of victory.
The local community, especially in time of war.
feels the immediate need for local mobilization.
Each person comes to realize that an organized
effort is no better than the single individuals who
make it up. To be really effective in accomplish·
ing a formidable front, each unit, school and local
organization learns inter-cooperation as v1ell as
sell·sacrifice. The whole community appreciates
the great value of a single command in achieving
the final goal.

On December 8, Jefferson studen ts
cast off any lurking semblance of lethargy. The sch ool as a separate society
had ended. The school and community
had united. It was discovered tha t the
school had a vital part in the wa r effort
as it is here that the maj ori ty of the community of homes a r e r epr esen ted . In
school also i s the r eserv e o f youthful,
s trong worke rs, will ing to devote ti me
and effort to the vario us necessary
duties o f a community at war. The
many ways in which Je ffe r son students
have shown their loyalty and willingness to hel p are :
$50-$60 worth of defense stamps are bought by l o yal Je fferson i ans each
month.
The V. P. F .. a home guard force. has bee n o r ganized to replace the
National Guard, which was called into service. In this new o r ganization,
Jefferson boys learn to wage war and to defend our homes. They ar e
preparing to fight the enemy under various conditions. Here they are
seen as they prepare to repulse paratroops attacking Jefferson .

Physical education has been emphasized greatly. The new inner system is
taking the possible future rejectees of
selective service and building them up
while they are still in high school.
The necessity of First Aid has been
proved repeatedly, and a new emphasis
is placed on this training through Physical Education classes.
An army fights on its stomach. Jefferson g irls are learning to keep army
stomachs in A-1 condition through nutrition classes and with the a id of several white rats. Air raids are becoming part of the Jefferson students' daily schedule. We have become
accustomed lo them and are very serious about the possibility of real
blitzes. Jefferson has its own civilian d9fense organization.
We are at War! Jefferson students realize this and have rallied to the
call. Forming a bond between school and community, Jefferson students
assist the war effort in innumerable ways, and help lo awaken their elders
lo the threat to our way of life.

E WHO stand on the threshold of a troubled world, impatient to play our part ,
harrassed by events around us, find ourselves seeking, from time to time, to
gain some equilibrium in a world of calm and relief.
Because she has made us at home in such a world- a world of books, because she has helped us to experience the thrill of research, and because she
has stimulated us along the delightful paths of good reading, we dedicate, with
appreciation and affection, this Fiftieth Anniversary Issue of the Je fferson High
School Annual, THE ACORN, to

RESENT ARMS," is the order given a squad of Marines. The bugle notes of "To the Colors"
float across the tropical sea. Every sailor topside faces the flag and salutes. The flag is slowly
hauled down and stowed away. With this simple but significant ceremony, the Navy pays
tribute to its flag and all it symbolizes.
The making of an all-round sailor is a difficult iob. The Navy has a definite program which
broadens and enriches the mental. physical, and spiritual aspects of the individual. The eventual
success of such a program depends entirely on the attitude of the recruit and the way in which
he accepts the training given him.
The training of the high school student is not unlike that of the Navy recruit. The simple
school flag ceremony tends to teach devotion to the country and the need for a serious attitude,
so much desired in the well-rounded student.
The hig h school boy and girl needs careful guidance, for it is in these school years that
lasting impressions, which p lay such an important role in later life, are formed. A certain
amount of discipline is needed, as is a deep understanding between student and school. The
aim of the school program is not merely the assimilating of subject matter, but the producing of
hardy ci tizens who are capable of serving their community and country to the extent of a
definite contribution to society.

HIS has been a year of tension and strain. Much has taken place beyond the
ordinary-events that have necessitated radical adjustments.
Faculty and students alike have made their adjustments and accepted new
responsibilities with courage, poise, and good judgment. Faculty and students
alike have gone into the armed forces, war industries, and civilian defense, and
have helped in the rationing and conservation programs. Ne verthe less, the instructional program has gone on with even more seriousness of purpose.
Other changes and adjustments must come, but Jefferson has demonstrated
that it can and will measure up to emergencies, as they arise, with energy, enthusiasm, and efficiency.

HE launching program is unde r way. The air breathes with e xcitement as the restless crowd
wails eagerly to see the ship plunge into the water. After a few prefatory remarks by the dignitaries, the s ignal is given, and the trigger pin coordinates w ith the crash of a champagne
bottle. The great ship slides easily into the water. The drag chains indicate that she is subject
to final work on shore.
Tugs meet the ship and maneuver her into position at the outfitting dock. She is not ready
for the sea, yet. The newly-launched ship is simply able to float. Valuable machinery and
o the r vital parts have ye t to be added. A great deal more work and time will be required
before she will be able to control herself safely and capably.
The graduating senior at commencement e xercises is bid farewell with the gala program
and best wishes of the speakers. But after the day is over and the real commencement begins,
like the ship, he needs the careful management and guidance necessary for his initial experience in the g reat sea of life .
The senior in the school occupies the coveted position of lop man. He has laced the Joys
and trials of high school life and has emerged successfully. He is ready for the outside world
but, at the same time, senses the need for clear thinking, good judgment, and experienced
g uidance.

HE work that immediately follows the laying of a ship's keel and continues until the launching
is extremely important, for it is in this span of time that the bulk of the ship is
ade. The ribs are built in place. The lower parts of the hull are constructed. The bulkheads
and the compartments below are securely built so as to insure a sturdy structure for the engines
and boilers .
.By this time, the general size and shape of the ship is evident. It is now that the workmen
r~alize the potentialities of their project. Each individual goes about his work with the conhdnece that soon this majestic form will go to sea. and serve as a good ship wherever she sails.
The student's junior year in high school is probably the best index obtainable as to what
~se. he will make of the knowledge and experience he has acquired in his school years. The
J~nior, in spite of his feelings of self-satisfaction and security, begins to realize the necessity of
sincere application in culminating a satisfactory school career. However. he has an inquiring
eye toward the future that is not fazed by the a ttractive program of junior and school activities.
One can fairly definitely de termine the harmony and efficiency of a school by the attitude
of the iunior. He forms the backbone of the school life, and presses forth with his matchless zest
for a full program to bring the student body schedule of events to a successful conclusion.

MID the noise of shops, machinery, and the activity that prevails around the ways of a busy
shipyard, we see a crane carefully hoisting a piece of steel in the air. The workmen have
cleared the ways; the construction foreman gives the signal; and the first section of _the keel
is gently laid in place. When the complete keel has been laid, the proper connechons are
made between the steel sections, and the workmen feel confident that they have laid the foun dation for a sturdy ship. They have laid a solid keel bed and are anxious to follow their work
with o ther well-planned construction.
Every e xperienced ship builder knows the value of a well-laid keel. and. as a result, he
sees that these "ship foundations" receive special attention. A good bulkhead and strong superstructure cannot be e rected on a weak keel. Thus the whole company, from officers to work
men, strive for a good beginning.
The sophomore entering high school encounters si tuations similar to those of laying a
ship's keel. There are problems to be solved. Becoming used to the new system of doing
things and the strange environment of new faces and organizations often tend to perplex the
newcomer more than usual. But, with well-planned training and patient handling, he is eased
into the system with little diffic ulty.
The school authoritie s fully realize the importance ol preparing the sophomore !01 the
even ts of the future. There is built up a bond of confidence between school and sophomore.
He soon realizes the necessity of mastering the prelirninary proyram and establishing a firm
foundation before he can hope to obtain a place higher up.

N a production program, especially war production, the need for skilled and prepared workers become~
1;1ore ac:ite, a?d. as a result, the trai:iing schedule to turn out neded craftsmen for indu~try is more intensified. Ship bu1ldmg, plant conslruchon, and manufacturing - all stand in need of specialized men lo carry
out the different stages of their respective fields.
The country's armed forces require a large number of production and repair men lo maintain successfully " the front behind the front." Again, these important skilled workmen must have acquired the necessary technical knowledge before they can participate in this program.
This year at Jefferson, more than ever, new emphasis has been laid on a skilled training program.
There has been a great tendency for students to take advantage of the facilities and equipment installe d
for these courses because of the nation's need for skilled men.
No t only are technically advanced workmen important in the sense of production, but they are also
helpful in teaching the attribute of the coordination of mind and muscle, the development of the b ody, and
clear thinking. Welding, drafting, riveting and machine work all have their definite place in for ming the se
characteristics. Jefferson High deems it a privilege to contribute and cooperate to the fulles t extent with
a program that trains and develops the future American builder -- backbone of the nation in war and
peace.

Jefferson High did not wait
until December 8th to gear its
Curriculum set up to a production program. In September, important training began in courses
directly connected with war
production.
The Smith-Hughes Act in 1917
started aid to vocational training.
Workers then amounted to
65,000.
Today, as our nation wages
war, 1,776,000 workers are being
made available.
Drafting is a prime factor in
making up this project.
Welders are being trained, as
they are in great demand for the
build ing of ships and other steel
construction.
Aircraft construction is tremendously dependent upon
sheet metal workers. In fact, the
largest part of the actual construction of the ship goes to
them.

The aircraft industry has
drained the country of a great
many of the automobile mechanics who are to be converted
into airplane mechanics - but
jeep cars, tanks, and trucks have
to be produced just the same, so
great emph asis is being placed
on training new automobile
mechanics.
The whole war is dependent
upon the skill, accuracy and
speed of the machinists - airplane motors, guns, cannons,
ships, etc. In every field of construction of the actual implements of war, the machinist has
had a pertinent part.
The government is calling on
all schools to build 500,000 model
airplanes for training purposes,
gun practice, and civilian defense.
There is also need in our war
effort for men and women
trained in production management and selling of re tail products. The Distributive Education
program is handling this end
with great success. Here is
offered the opportunity of actual
participation while learning.

SMA.LL, fast-~otor torpedo boat speeds toward its destination. The well-trained, hand-picked
crew is at action stations ready for any eventuality. There is no confusion. Every man knows
his job and calmly attends to it. The men below, while not seen in so glamorous a setting as
those topside, perform a vital task by keeping the engines in good working order so as to
maintain that essential quality of speed. Every man is a necessary part of this small figh~ing
unit, cooperating as best he can to insure success. The skipper now maneuvers the boat into
position. Torpedoes are launched-and the "mosquito boat" quickly turns to avoid them.
Life aboard a torpedo boat is hard, and only those with real stamina and the will to do can
possibly be active members of the "mosquito fleet." But in spite of the hardships encountered,
there is a chance to learn and observe. There is a real thrill when the seaman begins to
demonstrate his capabilities and discover his potentialities.
High school activities, like torpedo boat life, teach the participants to develop stamina and
to discover and more fully realize their respective talents and attributes. They soon learn the
value of each individual's cooperating for the eventual success of the group. There is a place
in school activities for all of the various aptitudes, and each soon becomes a necessary part of
the organized group by efficiently carrying out his work.
The proficient activity, like the trained engine crew of the torpedo boat, does no t sho w o n
the surface the long periods of preparation, but the pride of all is in the finished product that
functions smoothly and is a credit to the whole group.

Student Government's work for this year began with an orientation program
to acquaint all new students with the school club, regulations, the building, and
Student Government itself. A number of committees functioned all year, these
including the regulation of Fire Drills, Bulletin Board, Point System, Smoking,
and Step and Locker Monitors Committees.
Delegates were sent to the Southern Association of Student Government
Convention at Memphis, Tenn. This is the third year that Jefferson has been
represented at this association. Jefferson was elected vice president for next
year.
Two of the main projects of Student Government for this year were the
Junior Red Cross and the Paper Drive, in which paper has been collected in barrels in each home room, proceeds going toward purchasing a recording machine.
Among other projects taken over by the Student Government was the raising and lowering of the flag.
Gala plans were presented on the annual Old Grads' Day Dance. These
included a grand parade, broadcasts, and selling of tickets in booths downtown.
The annual Christmas dance proved to be a great success.
Delegates were sent to the State Student Government Convention o n May l
and 2, in Charlottesville,· Va., thus climaxing another successful year.
The Pep Club was reorganized. This group sponsored pep rall ies over the
radio and parades before football games, besides boosting school activities.

The National Honor Society consists of a group of students who maintain high s tandards of
achievement in both studies and school activities throughout the year. Requirements for membership are that a student be either a high junior or a senior, and that he have an average of G on all
credit subjects, and no failures.
The organization is primarily of an honorary nature, although meetings are held once a month
when literary programs are given.
Last fall Mr. J. P. Fishburn gave a number of City-County forum tickets to the club, thus enabling
the members to hear nationally-known lecturers.
The Honor Society strives for enthusiasm in scholarship, worthy leadership, development of character, and service for others.
The torch of knowledge is the symbol of the Honor Socie ty and can be found on the attractive
club pins.

The Girl Reserves of Jefferson are junior members of the Y. W. C . A. The program is three-fold,
aiming to help the individual, mentally, spiritually, and physically. Under the leadership of Betty Burnett, this year has been one to be remembered.
Football Hops, the Lynchburg Conference, the Mother-Daughter Banquet. Thanksgiving and
Christmas baskets for needy, the Easter Assembly and Cabaret, the stamp, books, and paper drives,
wee k-ends at Tree Top, and the Sweetheart Banquet, were some of the events in w hich the members
participated .

"SMILIN' THROUGH"
Hereon we find four scenes from "Smilin' Throug h" chosen this year for the
annual Costume Play of the Speech Department. In the first p icture Mary Lee
Penn, playing the part of Ellen, the maid, is bringing Jimmy Driscoll (Dr. Harding) a glass of barley water as he plays dominoes with his o ld friend, John
Carteret (Billy Wade). Immediately below them we find the wedding guests
assembled, consisting of Doris Shriver, Joe Krisch, Sara Hale, Charles Lemon,
Mary Liz. Barbour, Ben Sparks, and John Willard. On their right we find Billy
and Jimmy (John and Dr. Harding) wiih Sylvia Farnham as Moonyeen. Above
them is a scene between the two modern youths, Bobby McCray (Willie Ainley)
and Josh Vaughan (Kenneth Wayne), who are mystified at the dress of Frances
Whitefield (Mary Clare) and Woodrow Hurd (Jeremiah Wayne).

The Latin Department has an active
chapter of the national Junior American
Classical League. The purpose of this
organization is to keep alive in the
hearts of the youth of today a love for
the culture of ancient Greece and Rome
and an appreciation of its contributions
to the understanding and enjoyment of
present-day life.
The chief extra-curricular activity of
the Jefferson chapter is the publication
of the "Roanoke Roman," which has for
the past few years won first-place rating
both at the S. I. P.A., Lexington, and the
C. I. P. A. in New York.

J

The officers of the League are : Henry Jordan, President; Peggy Ott Hackler, Vice President; Kathrine Fulton, Secretary.
The staff of the "Roanoke Roman" is as follows: Mildred Martin and Katherine Settle, CoEditors; Margaret Nash, Assistant; Barbara Barnhart, Secretary; Arden Kiser, Business Manager; Doris Proffitt, Fred Wright, Suzanne Scheiner, Kathrine Fulton, Jean Hudson, Ann Logan
Baird, Class Reporters; Lewis Attala, Typist; Henry Jordan, Charles Burnette, Margaret Bays,
Ethelene Sink, Business Managers for Junior Schools.

The achievements of the French Department
were this year as great as ever. Many participated successfully in various activities. Twentyseven contestants took part in the French
Tournament held at Roanoke College on the
e)ghteenth of April.
j Several speakers who had lived or traveled
/ in France addressed the Fleur-de-Lys Club, the
officers of which are: Jean Dot Roller, president;
Susan Leftwich, vice president, and Norma Lee
Eskey, secretary.
An entertaining Halloween Party in the form
of a scavenger hunt, and a radio program given
at the WSLS. rounded out the fall projects .
Monograms have been received by those earning the fifteen points,
accorded for outs tanding work in French, as well as individual efforts
for the Fleur-de-Lys and the "Echo."
The French paper, "J'Echo de Roanoke," won for the third time in
succession the trophy of the S. I. P. A. at Lexington and the first place
a t the C. S. P. A. at Columbia University. This is largely due to the leadership of the editor, Robert Field, and assistant editor, Boyd Dickerson,
and the loyal support of their staff, Juanita Reed and Louise Perdue,
typists; Lois Larson, business manager; Norma Lee Eskey, Lucille Townsend, Malcolm Reed, Russell Shideler, Herbert Morris, Meta Coleman
and Marie Fallwell .
A very successful assembly topped off the year.

The Senior Hi-Y of this year has had many interesting programs and projects centered around
its purpose which is to create, maintain, and establish throughout the school and community higher
standards of Christian living. Several prominent Roanoke ministers have spoken to the club on this
subject in Bible study classes held this spring. Along the same line the Hi-Y presented an assembly
to the school at which time a prominent American minister of British birth spoke. The club also gave
an underprivileged boys banquet before Christmas at which about twenty boys were given a turkey
dinner.
The Hi-Y also tried to instill this purpose in every student at Jefferson by distributing cards in the
spring and fall with this purpose and the four planks printed on them along with the Jefferson creed
and a calender of spring events.
Among the Hi-Y's social activities were a Mothers' banquet, a Fathers' banquet, and several hay
rides to Camp Roanoke, the Y. M. C. A.'s camp.

Clean living, clean sportsmanship, clean speech, and fellowship therein are the ideals of the
Junior Hi-Y. The club meets each Tuesday at the Y. M. C. A. Supper meetings are held there at 6:30.
After these suppers, short business meetings are conducted by the president and club. The club has
either guest speakers or some kind of enterta iner quite regularly.
The Junior Hi-Y participates in all regular school activities, athletic or otherwise. Last year the
Hi-Y ushered at all the Jefferson High football games at home. The club is also taking an active part
in the current war effort by collecting waste paper.
Annual plans for each coming year generally consist of hay rides, dances, a Mothers' and Fathers'
Night banquet, and a Truth Conference.
An annual feature is the Truth Conference which is held in the open after a hike. The boys, one
at a time, get up. Each with his back to the club, h ears criticism from the members. It is all done in
the spirit of helpfulness.

The Martha Washington Literary Society strives to promote a democratic and entertaining program annually to encourage among girls at Jefferson a better feeling of friendship and understanding; to interest them and their associates in finer arts and activities along the "literary road"; and
to help all those interested to find some definite work in order to gain their awards with a feeling
of greater accomplishments.
Activities of the Club, such as teas, parties, suppers and, this year, some kind of cabin party, have
been planned in order to bring the girls in closer fellowship with one another. The annual assembly
included "The Powder Room," an original one-act play, and a pantomime called "And the Lamp
Went Out."
Presidents Louise Yost (fall) and Audrey Hatcher (spring) received full cooperation from the club,
which made progress with the aid of Miss Mary Delong and other officers.
With g radual rising such as this year has been, the Martha Washington Literary Society has a future ahead twice as long as the past.

�!fefferso11ia11 ,Citeraq; Socief!f
The Jeffersonian Literary Society, one of the oldest school organizations at
Jefferson, has hung on in an age of speed and specialization. The fact that adults
no longer have time for leisurely literary pursuits reflected in the fact that the
society held few meetings this year and was less active than usual. A small
band of old members w ho were still upholding the traditions of J. L. S. managed
to perpetuate the name, however, in the hope that a future group might carry
on. The society had trouble in keeping a president or, indeed, any officer for
any length of time because a requisite for membership is participation in a
number of school activities, particularly literary activities. We regret that in
the present day of war and preparation for war it is impossible to emphasize
speaking, writing, debating and kindred arts as much as we do the practical side
of things, but the Jeffersonian Literary Society hopes that they will not be completely forgotten in the hustle and stir of a nation at war. It hopes that in the
future its organization, or a similar one, may rise to a place of prominence at
Jefferson.
Officers were elected for both terms but were unable to take office. They
deserve mention. James Kavanaugh was the fall president-elect, and Harrison
Winstein, the spring president-elect.
Mr. D. W . Persinger, long an adviser of the J. L. S., continued to extend his
helpful g uidance.

�C:lte Choir

The school pays tribu te to the Choir, which has once again completed one
of its most successful seasons. Under the direction of Mr. Robert M. Griffey, it
has endeavored to bring to Jefferson's faculty and student body the kind of
music that is both good and enjoyable. It has participated in a number of the
school's assemblies and many community enterprises, upon request. Choir
members, in their maroon and white satin robes, have appeared before large
audiences throughout Roanoke.
Christmas brought an active program for the choir. Besides caroling in a
downtown department store to lighten the hearts of tired Christmas shoppers, the
Choir appeared before various clubs and churches. The Christmas assembly at
Jefferson would be incomplete without the Choir to render a background of
sacred Christmas music.
Members of this group journeyed to Richmond again this year where they
won several superior ratings. Those achieving superior ratings were: Helen
Blair Graves, piano; the large Choir; and the small boys' group. Entries rated
excellent were: The small girls' group; the small Choir; soloists, Sue Deaton,
·J

soprano; Maxine Mustard, soprano; Billy Parker, baritone; Chris Hanzas, te nor.
O ther ratings received were of the third division.

�To the citizens of Roanoke there was no more vital proof of the existence of
Jefferson High School during the year 1941-1942 than the high school band.
Marching in their maroon and white uniforms for the last season, the Jefferson
bandsmen were a very important link between school and community taking
part in all parades and many civic functions.
Under the leadership of J. R. White, the new conductor, the playing of the
band improved. Many marches were added to the library, a system of demerits
for misconduct was introduced, and the discipline in the band was enforced by
student officers.
At the State Music Festival in Richmond, the Brass Quartet made a score of
excellent, and the Reed Quartet, a score of good.

Two new coaches and a fine bunch of boys carried
us through another excellent season.
Although the schedule was scattered with several
defeats, the victories far outnumbered them.
Harry Walton finished his fourth season of brilliant
playing by making the first string all-state team. C. 0.
Paugh and Dickie Dickerson are able reserves.
Clay Bear and Reg Weaver held the safety position
down. Jack McConaghy and Dick Whitehead were
the unsung heroes that worked the blocking back

spot. . Buddy Shoaf and Leon Briggs backed u p the
line with much success. Dave Smythe and Jimmy
Gill were the able ends with John Cassell. Sam Rae,
and Eddie Sharpe ready reserves.
Dink Engleby with Sam Bohon were the main
tackles, Lloyd Straub and Eldrige Vest were their
confident reserves. James Butts and Jack Guilfolye
handled the quard positions, with Kirk Myers and
James Fitzgerald backing them up. Charles Rush and
Rudy Keffer shared the center post.

well as otherwise, and as expected, proved to be the
number one man. Clay Bear's speed was a great
asset, as was Wilson Balthis' dribbling. The reach and
height of Norris Thompson. "Ab" Ellet and Bill Kirk
proved valuable in all games. Kearny, McQuilkin
and Billy Atkinson saw plen ty of action, their allround good playing coming in handy plenty of times.
Robert Houff and John Hildebrand were two able
members who were an important part in most games.

Basket ball has always held an important place in
the sports field at Jefferson. During the past several
years, Coach A. D . Hurt has developed some very excellent teams. This year's cagers were no exception.

Several casualties hampered the team, but by no
means dismayed the players. The loss of Jimmy
Akers was, though serious, taken with no disheartedness. Several players suffered physical casualties of
a slight degree; however, these were quickly overcome, and no occasion was more than one game
missed.

The "hard luck" team would be an appropriate
title for this year's track squad. Besides having several of its members knocked out at the beginning of
the season with broken bones and sprained ankles,
namely Bob Fagg, Coach S. I. Craft got his commission in the Navy one meet before the end of the
season. Walter Edwards, leading man, was confined
to his bed because of illness three days before the
State meet, but in spite of this he placed second in
the mile run.
Harry Walton, as usual, was leading quarter miler,
setting a new school record. Harry also competed in
the high jump, broad jump and half-mile run.
Sammy Rae, with Buddy Sexton following in his
tracks, was all-dash man. Sammy also led in javelin,
shot, and discus, and was second man in the high
jump.
Pete Myers with Bob Paine was good for plenty
of points in the half and the mile, as was Bob Mason.
Harvey Smallwood was number one man in the low
hurdles, and Dick White head pulled in plenty of
points in the dashes.

This spring at Jefferson, in an assembly of all the
boys of the school, presided over by Mr. Riddick,
the coaches and athletic directors of the school. outlined an attractive program of spring sports open to
the boys of Jefferson. This program was new and
different in that. instead of laying emphasis on build·
ing up a team for winning in competition with other
teams, it stressed athletics for all. A basket ball
tournament was arranged. A tennis tournament was

played and every afternoon a large group of boys
was seen, as above, engaged in p laying volley ball.
Girls also participated in intramural sports .
Although this was the firs t year an intramural program has been tried on a large scale at Jefferson, it
met with u nexpected success. It is hoped that this
trend will continue and more o f the boys of the
school w ill avail themselves of this opportunity .

The health of the girls is 50% of the
health of the nation, and girls' athletics
were not neglected at Jefferson this year.
Under the able leadership of Miss Dorothy
Snedegar, herself an athlete of ability, the
girls had a large and active Monogram
Club, which is pictured at the left.

Swimming at the Y. W., these girls attempt a floating figure. This swimming is
accepted as credit on gym work, and many
girls choose it.

Coordination and rhythm were emphasized in the wand drill, which was exhibited on the football field between halves
one Saturday afternoon with the band furnishing the music.

What plans do you have for the future after
graduation? D o you know that Chiropractic offers
sincere, earnest people a great opportunity, in an
u ncrowded field, to be of matchless service in getting sick people well?
Chiropractic is scien tific in its methods, correct
in its principles and effective in results obtained
because it harmonizes so comp letely with the laws
of nature.

If you are interested in Chiropractic as a field
of service, write to the Palmer School of Chiropractic, D avenport, I owa, about their curriculum.
Or, if yo u prefer, consult us in our office.
Listen in over W DBJ l\1onday, Vlednesday,
and Friday mornings, at ro o'c lock, to the Health
Chat program, for information about Chiropractic
for better health.

�You Graduates!
Now that you have finished high school. what are you going
to do about it? Are you going to sit down and take stock of yourselves? Are you going to try and reason out what it's all about?
If you'll do this you'll have a g reat revelation. You'll then be able
to give thanks that you were created a human being. You'll realize
what a glorious world you live in. Something else you'll realize ·
is that ii is more fun and joy and glory in a work well done than
trying to get by the easy way. So, keep on studying as long as
you live that you may work and be helpful to the end of your
days. For only when you live in a way that you leave the world
better for your living can you hope to win the ultimate victory.

The cornersto ne &lt;'f our g reat nation is the state we
proud ly call our ho me. But we \ ' irginians are not
the on ly o nes who ha \·e sung fo r it a song of love.
Lo ng ago, t here was an English man who dreamed
a dream o f America, and then another who helped
translate it into reality. Altho ugh Raleigh and Smith
were born in England, they were real \"irg inians.
Then, in the years o f the forming o f our nation,
''The Grc:n Generatio n " came a lmost en tirely from
our state. \Vashington, J e ffe rson, l\1adiso n, l\Ionroe,
and Henrr gave us a new title- that o f Americans.
Later, there were Poe, J ackson, and Lee.
Already in this twentieth century, such men as
\Yilso n, D a rden and :'\Jmiral Byrd ha,·e lifted their
Yoices.
Perhaps enn now the so ng o f \ "irgi nia is swelling
in the bea n and mind o f someone here at Jefferso n
who will find expressio n fo r it in th e rea rs a head !

" They went northwest to the tall woods,
And to Kootenai,
On to the Going-to-the-sun;
To the mountains called Olympia.
To the river called Columbia,
To dew and mist a11d roses.
And they were proud and high.',

TJl/z en the fll ester11 piouars reached the Last summit
overlooking the Padfic, they renli:t•d thry fwd go ne ns

Likewise, w h fn till' student nl Jeffe rson has co111pieted his sem'or year, he has ad(•cmccd as far as } riferso 11

so many J ef!ites, after grad11at1.011, will be eagn to begin

Th is Department helps the student understand the puzzling problems in the
Bible and a lso to develop and cultivate interest in the reading of the Scriptures.

True to its pledge the Junio r Classical League o f Jefferson is trying
to pass on the torch of classical learning in this modern world . Two o f its important
projects toward this end are the Latin T o urnamen t and the publicatio n o f the
Roanoke Roman, a Latin-English newspaper.
In the Latin T ournament of 1946, Jefferson made the h ighest average in the
state and won the plaque. Two representatives, J o hn R o berson, third year, and
Mary Lou Burnett, fourth year, won highest indiv idual ratings for their respecti\·e
years. Nlary Lou Burnett was awarded a scholarship to Randolph-i'da con \ Voman's
College.
The Roanoke Roman was entered in the C. S. P. A . Contest, Columbia University, and was awarded Medalist Rating.
The annual Christmas party was given in the library, December 16th.

              <text>That star was a part of my life while I was growing up and still is! I loved seeing it from different places in Roanoke. When it turned different colors my mom and dad would explain what the different colors meant when I was young. My husband, 47 years ago this coming August, ask me to marry him as we sat at the star!!! So this star has wonderful memories for me! I have pictures of this star all around my house. They bring smiles to me every time I see them. I do not live and have not lived in Roanoke for 46 years, but every time I come for a family visit I always look for the Star. I feel right at home when seeing it coming into Roanoke. </text>

�Here We Learn Citizenship

Choosing our own leaders 1s an important part of school
and community citizenship. . . The fina l moments of a n
election, when the votes are coun ted, see a new grou p of
class or student government officers selected by thei r fellow
students . . . an outstanding example of training fo r a
democracy .

In our present global condition one of ou r

hopes is in the right of selecting our leaders in a free election .
To appreciate this right, however, we have to exercise it.

Consideration for the less fortunate characterizes an outstandi ng and conscientious citizen . By giving to t he poor
and afflicted at Christmastime we help not only the recip-

�by Acting and Participating

ients of the gifts but, in a deeper sense, ourselves.
Each year Jefferson's home rooms fill baskets for the
needy and the members of the Hi-Y do their part by distributing them. Thus we receive a lesson in charity.

Talent-born, yet distinctly civic in aspect, is the making
of posters for the city "school bond" issue. Rarely can
students take so definite a part in municipal affairs. \Vhen
they do they can gain an insight into what is going on,
become aware of the needs of the city in which they will
probably li,·e.

Thus, we see that here is a definite point

where school and commu nity meet.

Owens, our City Manager, and M r. Smith, Chairman o f
the School Board, are seen here getting thei r heads together on the School Bond Issue.

Th rough men o f

such calibre as these, looking to the future o f R oanoke
and

working for the improvement of educationa l

facilities in the city, we get our contact with the
present generation o f "city fathers ."

These men are

indeed "strong links," depended upon by both city
and school to settle issues which will &lt;letermine the
preparedness of t o morro w's c1v1c leaders.

Good citi-

Physical Educatio n and Health
Good health is the basis for a good li fe. If one is
healthy, so much more can be ach ieved. Li ke the
Spartan youths, we build strong musc les and st raight
bodies. One o f t he tests of a successful and abundant
country is the physical appearance of its youth.
America has not only a healthy peop le but a tradition of fair play and good sportsmanship. We must
learn to lose cheerfully as well as win. l n our Phrsical
Education and Health Departme nts, we learn th ese
principles through sports. H ere, our instructors arc

Our midstream status in high school, arri\·eJ at in
our junior yea r, is really a n importan t stage. \Ve
have lost t he bewilderment of sopho:nores and ha \'e
a senior year to ant1c1pate . Early in th e year we begin
to take a real interest in the life at J effe rson . The
strangers of last year are now ou r che rished teamm ates . We begin to walk together in man y proj ects :
student government, committee wo rk o f all kinJs,
ath letic and li terary contests , d ra tnatics, spring car ni\·al, hosts for the Junior-Senior prom. for Se\·eral
weeks the bustle o f planning for th is big event starts .
Then t here is t he n ight of gaiety, fun, laughter, wit h
the work and ideas of many a ju nio r pac ked into our
eveni ng .
J\ow at the close of our junior yea r, we are look in g
forward to that most glamorous of all years - o ur
sen ior year.

Ylembers of the Sophomore Class become acq u ainted
with J efferson and its traditions during their first year.
Few of o ur number escape mak ing m istakes, but as
the yea r slips by, we begin to show the ea rm a rks of
d iscipline. \Vhcn we were fresh men, we chose o ur
courses and subjects and looked forward to &lt;lays at
Jefferson.
J\s sophomores, we are assum ing more
responsibilities, and our tho ughts are beginning to
reach more into the future. \Ve have begun to take
our subjects and our duties more seriously . \Ve realize
that now we are a part of something for which we had
waited a long time. \Ve bclie,·c our next two years at
Jefferson will be happy ones, but during that time we
want to prepare o urseh·cs for the future years of our
lives. Jefferson l ligh School will be our foundation,
and we will look back to it with pride.
This year the Sophomore Class sponsored the freak
show in the carnival o n i\farch 19th and an informal
dance in the gym o n April 8th in honor o f the sophomores and their dates.

The Acorn Annual
Friends, memories, events . . . these are
the things that make a high school year so
personal. Your Annual Staff has tried to sweep
all of Jefferson's many corners in preparing
this one complete record of the past two
semeste rs.
\Vhen , as a successful citizen of Roanoke or
anr other community, you fina ll y decide to
look back and see just where and how you
got your start, we hope you wi II open your
1949 Acorn Annual and be able to find there
your answer.
A lot of work has gone into the make- up of
this book
planning, taking pictures,
writing, laying out pages, printing .
. but
"'·e feel that it has been well worth it.

Monitors
The Monitor System,
sponsored by Student
Government, is one of
our projects for student
participation in self-government. The system
has in its organization
around fifty students.
These special officers are
placed in the halls each
period to help with hall
conditions. They protect lockers and lost
articles, direct strangers
to their destination, and
at times help to control
traffic situations, and
assist the fac ulty in
various ways.
These students must
know how to work with
people in a pleasing manner with emphasis on
courtesy, honesty and
leadership. They must
be aYerage in scholarsh ip in order to qual ify
as monitors.

�Through New Pursuits

Spanish
Especially in this time of world consciousness it is important
to ha\·e a greater understanding between nations. Since the
world has become smaller because of the advent of modern
t ranspo rtation, there is an increased in terest in other countries.
The citizen of today strives to lea rn about foreig ners· ways of
life, their customs and lheir views on world problems. Thus,
the popularity of the Spanish Club is inevitable.
The purpose of the Club is to increase the interest in the
Spanish language and the Spanish·spcaking world.
At the semi·monthly meetings, there arc motion pictu res of
the history, geog raphy or topography of Spain or of some Latin
Americ;rn country, guest speakers, or maybe a skit put on by
Sc\·cral of the rncm bcrs.
Commander Crowley is the sponsor.

The part taken by the Cheerleaders shoulJn't be considered
too lightly in its connection with community life. Boosting the
morale of one's fellows is as much a part o f citizenship as anything else.
Cheerleading is a ma3or o ffice (si x poin ts) for the e ntire
year. Consequently, those who arc chosen ha\·c to maintain an

Any student who will be at Jefferson for t h e fol lowing yea r and

The brand of football p layed b~· the J eff \l ngicians for th e
last two years has been h ighly laudable. Thi s season. like las t
rear, started o fT with a bang. The Jeffs trimmed Fleming. Byrd ,
and Dan,·i ll e in o rde r, with o ut being scored o n . T hen on October 1st we lost o u r fi rst game to K ingsport. T c 1 . Despite th e
111
fact that three first-string boys were benched that game, they beat
us o n!~· 20 q. It is re ported in Tennessee t o Jia,·e been o ne o f
the best high school games e \·er to ha,·e been played i11 that state.
\: ext Belmon t,\:. C. , bo wed to a team composed o f mostly second
stringers ( the rest o f the boys were res ting up after Kingspo rt ).
RE\"El\GE was sweet as J oh n .\ larshall we111 dnw11 to a 19 13
count. It W&lt;IS really swell to be li,·ing a ft er t hat ga11 1e. for a ll q·e3
tu rned on a dis tant goal the State Champ ior 1ship. I lo pes we re
a lmost sha ttered the next wee k end. \\ "e we re pushed to shake
off a Lj.-po111 t a&lt;l\·antage and whip Andrew Lewis, 2 1 - q. Tho 111a s
Jefferson stepped out of the picture, 13 (,, and hopes soa r:eJ
higher. Just two more games. :\bury was a tough one. \ Vnh
the score 7 7 and three and o ne-half minutes 1&lt;&gt; play . l) on

It has been my ve ry great
pleasure to serve as you r principal
fo r th ree yea rs. T'hus, in a certain
way, I am ready to g raduate with

J efferson has been you r home
for three years, and I ho pe that
yo u will ca rry with you many fond
memories of the hours you have
spent here.
Y our school has
taught you much, and I bel ieve
that you are prepared to face
life's battles with enthu siasm and
cou rage.

Introduction:
The Southwest Virginia LGBTQ+ History Project began in 2015 as collaboration
between Roanoke College, Roanoke Diversity Center, and Roanoke Public Libraries in
an effort to collect and preserve information on the history of the LGBTQ community in
the Roanoke Valley and Southwest Virginia. Members of the community were
encouraged to donate items relevant to the scope of this collection.
Historical Note:
It is generally acknowledged that the modern day LGBTQ civil rights movement began
in New York City in June 1969 with the Stonewall Riots. Prior to and since this time, a
number of activists, individuals, and organizations fought to bring recognition of LGBTQ
civil rights to the forefront of American society. While the movement was primarily
centered in New York City and San Francisco, periodicals, guide books, and ephemeral
material interconnected the larger LGBTQ community throughout the United States,
including the Roanoke Valley and Southwest Virginia.
The first known organization, the Gay Alliance of the Roanoke Valley, was formed in
1971. During its short time, the Gay Alliance of the Roanoke Valley published a
newsletter called the Big Lick Gayzette. Several years after the Alliance folded, a new
organization, the Free Alliance for Individual Rights (FAIR), was formed in 1978. The
formation of this organization was brought about as a result of police stings targeting gay
men in Roanoke adult bookstores, the City Market, and Elmwood Park. FAIR also
published a newsletter, The Virginia Gayzette, to present a balanced picture of the
LGBTQ community as more than “deviants, perverts, and lawbreakers” and to keep the
community informed. In the decades since, other organizations have formed, such as
Roanoke Pride, PRISM Foundation, Roanoke Valley Chapter of Parents and Friends of
Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG), and the Roanoke Diversity Center, to promote equal rights,
offer support, and educate the general public on LGTBQ issues.

�Scope and Content:
▪ The collection currently consists of 5 record storage boxes and 1 flat oversize
storage box. Accruals are expected.
▪ This collection consists of a variety of materials, such as newsletters, news
clippings, posters, flyers, correspondence, organizational records and reports.
▪ Most of the documents are standard 8 1/2 “x 11” paper, either in loose leaf form or
as part of a compilation; exceptions include poster size marketing materials and
news clippings.
▪ Materials range from 1971-2020
▪ Some of the strengths of the collection include original issues of the Big Lick
Gayzette, Virginia Gayzette, though complete runs of each publication are not
included. A complete set of issues of the Blue Ridge Lamda Press (formerly Blue
Ridge Lambda Alliance) is included.
▪ Records from the following LGBTQ organizations are included: Roanoke Chapter
of PFLAG, which contain correspondence to and from the organization to
individuals and organizations across the country; Roanoke Valley Gay Alliance
(later Roanoke Valley Gay &amp; Lesbian Alliance); Virginia Gay Alliance, Roanoke
Chapter; Virginia Gay Alliance, State Council; Positive Alternative Life Styles
(PALS); Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance.
▪ News clippings and other ephemera also provide insights into the LGBTQ
community through the years.
▪ Committee records regarding the planning and implementation of various LGBTQ
events in the Roanoke Valley, including Pride in the Park.
▪ Metropolitan Community Church of the Blue Ridge newsletters from the 1990s.

	&#13;  
3:25	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Public	&#13;  schools.	&#13;  And	&#13;  graduated	&#13;  from	&#13;  Jefferson	&#13;  High	&#13;  School,	&#13;  where	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  
went	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  You	&#13;  either…	&#13;  Southside	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  Jefferson	&#13;  or	&#13;  Northside	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Fleming.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  black	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  Lucy	&#13;  Addison.	&#13;  	&#13;

3:38	&#13;

�3:41	&#13;

The	&#13;  next	&#13;  class	&#13;  was	&#13;  segregated	&#13;  [integrated].	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  when	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  black	&#13;  citizens	&#13;  of	&#13;  
Roanoke	&#13;  came	&#13;  in.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:59	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  graduated	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  black	&#13;  students	&#13;  who	&#13;  had	&#13;  started	&#13;  but	&#13;  
yours	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  last	&#13;  all-­‐white	&#13;  graduating	&#13;  class?	&#13;  And	&#13;  that	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  been…	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  
recall	&#13;  what	&#13;  year?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:09	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  1965.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:10	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  ’65.	&#13;  What	&#13;  was	&#13;  Jefferson	&#13;  High	&#13;  School…	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  your	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  experience	&#13;  
like?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:15	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Not	&#13;  something	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  repeat.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  nerd.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  never	&#13;  
athletic.	&#13;  I	&#13;  managed	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  all	&#13;  book	&#13;  people	&#13;  and	&#13;  very	&#13;  
much	&#13;  like	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  comfortable	&#13;  with.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  good	&#13;  student	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  
always	&#13;  got	&#13;  along	&#13;  with	&#13;  teachers,	&#13;  faculty.	&#13;  Gym	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  pain.	&#13;  Always.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:48	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Why?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:49	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  fit	&#13;  in.	&#13;  I	&#13;  felt	&#13;  self-­‐conscious	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  uncomfortable.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Didn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;

GR:	&#13;  When	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  romantic	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  or	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  a	&#13;  
time	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  started	&#13;  to	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  your	&#13;  sexuality?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:09	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  probably	&#13;  started	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  about	&#13;  that	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  ten	&#13;  or	&#13;  twelve.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:12	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Earlier?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:13	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Oh,	&#13;  yeah.	&#13;  No,	&#13;  never	&#13;  romantic	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  “out”	&#13;  as	&#13;  
such	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  meaning	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time—not	&#13;  the	&#13;  meaning	&#13;  now,	&#13;  but	&#13;  the	&#13;  meaning	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  
time.	&#13;  Many	&#13;  years	&#13;  later	&#13;  I	&#13;  realized	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  one	&#13;  guy	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  crush	&#13;  on.	&#13;  Didn’t	&#13;  
realize	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  Didn’t	&#13;  define	&#13;  it	&#13;  that	&#13;  way	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  Later	&#13;  years,	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought,	&#13;  oh	&#13;  wow,	&#13;  
that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  about.	&#13;  Okay.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4	&#13;  

�	&#13;  
5:44	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Did	&#13;  you	&#13;  date	&#13;  any	&#13;  girls?	&#13;  Or	&#13;  just	&#13;  no	&#13;  dating?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:47	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  ran	&#13;  around	&#13;  with	&#13;  one	&#13;  girl	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  school.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  she	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  more,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  liked	&#13;  her	&#13;  because	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  She	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  neighborhood.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  
interested	&#13;  in	&#13;  any	&#13;  more,	&#13;  anything	&#13;  else.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:04	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Did	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  prom	&#13;  and	&#13;  things	&#13;  like	&#13;  that?	&#13;  Dances?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:07	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  any…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:08	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Didn’t	&#13;  go?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:08	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  No.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:09	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  bookish	&#13;  and	&#13;  nerdy?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:12	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:15	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  then,	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  college	&#13;  afterwards?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:23	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Oh	&#13;  yeah.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:24	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  What	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  process	&#13;  like?	&#13;  Did	&#13;  your	&#13;  parents	&#13;  encourage	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  go?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:28	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  My	&#13;  parents	&#13;  were	&#13;  always,	&#13;  “whatever	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  is	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  you.	&#13;  We	&#13;  will	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  
help	&#13;  you	&#13;  in	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  way	&#13;  we	&#13;  can.”	&#13;  And,	&#13;  at	&#13;  first	&#13;  I	&#13;  applied	&#13;  to	&#13;  various	&#13;  schools	&#13;  around	&#13;  
different	&#13;  places.	&#13;  Got	&#13;  accepted	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple.	&#13;  Started	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  one	&#13;  in	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina,	&#13;  but	&#13;  
didn’t.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  applied	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  College,	&#13;  which	&#13;  turned	&#13;  out	&#13;  fine.	&#13;  And	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  
no	&#13;  money,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  day	&#13;  student.	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  in	&#13;  for	&#13;  classes	&#13;  here	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  four	&#13;  years.	&#13;  
Worked	&#13;  part-­‐time.	&#13;  I	&#13;  started	&#13;  working	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  public	&#13;  library	&#13;  in	&#13;  1963.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:13	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  In	&#13;  high	&#13;  school?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5	&#13;  

�	&#13;  
7:14	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  In	&#13;  high	&#13;  school,	&#13;  yeah.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  worked	&#13;  all	&#13;  through	&#13;  my	&#13;  college	&#13;  years	&#13;  here,	&#13;  either	&#13;  part-­‐
time	&#13;  or	&#13;  full-­‐time	&#13;  in	&#13;  summers.	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  money.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:25	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  worked	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  Public	&#13;  Library	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:29	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:30	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So,	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  school	&#13;  in	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  you	&#13;  dropped	&#13;  out,	&#13;  or	&#13;  
transferred,	&#13;  or…	&#13;  ?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:40	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  finished	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  College	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  UNC-­‐Chapel	&#13;  Hill	&#13;  for	&#13;  graduate	&#13;  
school.	&#13;  For	&#13;  a	&#13;  Masters	&#13;  Degree	&#13;  there.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:48	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Oh,	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  Let’s	&#13;  go	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  College.	&#13;  You	&#13;  enrolled	&#13;  in	&#13;  ’65?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:55	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:56	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  College	&#13;  like	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  late	&#13;  ‘60s?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
8:00	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  nice.	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  gym	&#13;  teacher	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  human.	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  none	&#13;  
before	&#13;  that	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  human.	&#13;  And	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  Coach	&#13;  Fox.	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  his	&#13;  first	&#13;  
name.	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  probably	&#13;  still	&#13;  well	&#13;  remembered	&#13;  here.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  man.	&#13;  A	&#13;  really	&#13;  good	&#13;  
man.	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  required	&#13;  courses	&#13;  then	&#13;  that	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  sure	&#13;  are	&#13;  not	&#13;  required	&#13;  now.	&#13;  
Chapel,	&#13;  Gym,	&#13;  one	&#13;  year,	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  experience.	&#13;  Most	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
teachers	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  good,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  liked	&#13;  [them].	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  that	&#13;  weren’t.	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  
the	&#13;  environment	&#13;  very	&#13;  pleasant.	&#13;  Met	&#13;  some	&#13;  friends,	&#13;  met	&#13;  some	&#13;  people	&#13;  here,	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  
whom	&#13;  were	&#13;  day	&#13;  students.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  whom	&#13;  is	&#13;  still	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  close	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine.	&#13;  Talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  
him	&#13;  this	&#13;  morning.	&#13;  Courses	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  easy.	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  expecting	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  enjoyed	&#13;  them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
did.	&#13;  A	&#13;  couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  professors	&#13;  in	&#13;  particular	&#13;  that	&#13;  stand	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  mind:	&#13;  Homer	&#13;  Bast.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  Professor	&#13;  Poindexter.	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  his	&#13;  first	&#13;  name	&#13;  [Harry	&#13;  Poindexter]..	&#13;  I	&#13;  
remember	&#13;  those	&#13;  two	&#13;  very,	&#13;  very	&#13;  well,	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  liked,	&#13;  really	&#13;  respected.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
9:37	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  What	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  major	&#13;  in?	&#13;

�DJ:	&#13;  History.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
9:39	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  History?	&#13;  What	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  hope	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  with	&#13;  that?	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  remember	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  
thinking	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
9:48	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  At	&#13;  the	&#13;  time,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  interested	&#13;  in,	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  always	&#13;  been	&#13;  interested	&#13;  
in.	&#13;  It	&#13;  just	&#13;  consumed	&#13;  me.	&#13;  As	&#13;  time	&#13;  went	&#13;  on,	&#13;  the	&#13;  boss	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  library	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  
was	&#13;  very	&#13;  supportive	&#13;  of	&#13;  me,	&#13;  and	&#13;  tried	&#13;  directing	&#13;  me	&#13;  into	&#13;  getting	&#13;  a	&#13;  library	&#13;  degree.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
as	&#13;  time	&#13;  went	&#13;  on,	&#13;  that	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  appeal	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  more	&#13;  and	&#13;  more.	&#13;  The	&#13;  job	&#13;  possibilities	&#13;  at	&#13;  
that	&#13;  time	&#13;  were	&#13;  very,	&#13;  very	&#13;  good.	&#13;  You	&#13;  could	&#13;  have	&#13;  gone	&#13;  anywhere	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  country	&#13;  and	&#13;  
gotten	&#13;  a	&#13;  job	&#13;  just	&#13;  by	&#13;  walking	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  door	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  that	&#13;  Masters	&#13;  Degree.	&#13;  She	&#13;  became	&#13;  
very	&#13;  supportive	&#13;  of	&#13;  me.	&#13;  Worked	&#13;  my	&#13;  hours	&#13;  around	&#13;  my	&#13;  classes,	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  work	&#13;  
part-­‐time.	&#13;  Helped	&#13;  me	&#13;  get	&#13;  a	&#13;  grant	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  state	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  graduate	&#13;  school.	&#13;  Otherwise	&#13;  I	&#13;  
could	&#13;  not	&#13;  have	&#13;  gone.	&#13;  Held	&#13;  a	&#13;  job	&#13;  open	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  until	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  back.	&#13;  I	&#13;  owe	&#13;  her	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  I	&#13;  owe	&#13;  
her	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
10:53	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  student	&#13;  at	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  College	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  day	&#13;  student?	&#13;  You	&#13;  
commuted?	&#13;  Or	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  ever	&#13;  live	&#13;  on	&#13;  campus?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11:00	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  No.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11:01	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  What	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  social	&#13;  scene	&#13;  like?	&#13;  I	&#13;  imagine	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  probably	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  experience	&#13;  
for	&#13;  students	&#13;  who	&#13;  lived	&#13;  on	&#13;  campus?	&#13;  Did	&#13;  you	&#13;  feel	&#13;  socially	&#13;  integrated	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  campus?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11:12	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  No.	&#13;  And	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  missed.	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  always	&#13;  regretted	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  away	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  school	&#13;  and	&#13;  have	&#13;  that	&#13;  four	&#13;  years.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  even	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Chapel	&#13;  Hill,	&#13;  that	&#13;  year	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  influential	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  life	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  look	&#13;  
back	&#13;  and	&#13;  say	&#13;  “what	&#13;  would	&#13;  those	&#13;  four	&#13;  years	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  like	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  away	&#13;  at	&#13;  
school?”	&#13;  But	&#13;  you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  look	&#13;  back.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  necessity.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  much	&#13;  of	&#13;  
another	&#13;  choice.	&#13;  Financially,	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  very	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  to	&#13;  do.	&#13;  My	&#13;  parents	&#13;  
helped	&#13;  in	&#13;  everyway	&#13;  they	&#13;  could,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  lived	&#13;  at	&#13;  home,	&#13;  and	&#13;  worked	&#13;  part-­‐time.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  
the	&#13;  only	&#13;  way	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  do	&#13;  it.	&#13;  	&#13;

GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  graduated	&#13;  in	&#13;  ’69?	&#13;  May,	&#13;  I	&#13;  assume.	&#13;  So	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  one	&#13;  month	&#13;  before	&#13;  the	&#13;  
Stonewall	&#13;  incident	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  City.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12:17	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  still	&#13;  got	&#13;  the	&#13;  ring.	&#13;  [Daniel	&#13;  Jones	&#13;  shows	&#13;  Gregory	&#13;  Rosenthal	&#13;  his	&#13;  1969	&#13;

GR:	&#13;  [looking	&#13;  at	&#13;  ring]	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  College	&#13;  ring.	&#13;  In	&#13;  college,	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  any	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of,	&#13;  or	&#13;  
were	&#13;  there	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  gay	&#13;  students	&#13;  on	&#13;  campus?	&#13;  Or	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  any	&#13;  experiences	&#13;  [in	&#13;  
which]	&#13;  you	&#13;  learned	&#13;  more	&#13;  about	&#13;  your	&#13;  own	&#13;  romantic	&#13;  or	&#13;  sexual	&#13;  life?	&#13;  Or	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  still	&#13;  all	&#13;  
closeted?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12:43	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  guys	&#13;  around	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  were	&#13;  attractive.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  
liked	&#13;  looking	&#13;  at.	&#13;  I	&#13;  watched	&#13;  for	&#13;  them	&#13;  on	&#13;  campus.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  aware,	&#13;  or	&#13;  have	&#13;  
put	&#13;  it	&#13;  all	&#13;  together	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  point,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  anything	&#13;  about	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  
or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  [Addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  Daniel	&#13;  Jones	&#13;  clarifies	&#13;  
that	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  1966	&#13;  that	&#13;  he	&#13;  discovered	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  downtown	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  
His	&#13;  grades	&#13;  were	&#13;  good	&#13;  freshman	&#13;  year,	&#13;  but	&#13;  then	&#13;  dropped	&#13;  sophomore	&#13;  year	&#13;  after	&#13;  that.]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:14	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  off	&#13;  to	&#13;  UNC	&#13;  that	&#13;  fall	&#13;  then?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:18	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:19	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  And	&#13;  did	&#13;  one	&#13;  year	&#13;  you	&#13;  said?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:21	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  At	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  cramming	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  degree	&#13;  into	&#13;  one	&#13;  year.	&#13;  Two	&#13;  
semesters	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  two	&#13;  summer	&#13;  sessions.	&#13;  And	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  really	&#13;  pushed	&#13;  it	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  get	&#13;  
it	&#13;  all	&#13;  into	&#13;  one	&#13;  year.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:37	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  When	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  any	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  gay	&#13;  liberation	&#13;  happening?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:44	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Oh	&#13;  yeah.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:44	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Is	&#13;  that	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  first	&#13;  started	&#13;  to	&#13;  hear	&#13;  about	&#13;  it?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:47	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  No.	&#13;  I	&#13;  figured	&#13;  things	&#13;  out	&#13;  about	&#13;  1966.	&#13;  By	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  already	&#13;  
made	&#13;  friends	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  already	&#13;  found	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  
already	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Tradewinds.	&#13;  And	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  friends	&#13;  are	&#13;  still	&#13;  friends.	&#13;  The	&#13;  
ones	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  still	&#13;  alive,	&#13;  and	&#13;  most	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  are	&#13;  not.	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  like,	&#13;  here	&#13;  was	&#13;  this	&#13;  whole	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  there	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  “out.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  just	&#13;  everywhere.	&#13;  A	&#13;  close	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine	&#13;  from	&#13;  here	&#13;  was	&#13;  actually	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  

	&#13;  
8	&#13;  

�Hill	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  during	&#13;  the	&#13;  Kent	&#13;  State	&#13;  strike.2	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  
politically.	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  very	&#13;  conservative.	&#13;  Came	&#13;  back	&#13;  not.	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  looking	&#13;  out	&#13;  my	&#13;  
dorm	&#13;  window	&#13;  and	&#13;  watching	&#13;  them	&#13;  march,	&#13;  with	&#13;  torches.	&#13;  Thousands	&#13;  of	&#13;  students.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  just	&#13;  in	&#13;  turmoil	&#13;  with	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  on,	&#13;  with	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  doing.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  my	&#13;  
previous	&#13;  political	&#13;  feelings	&#13;  and	&#13;  leanings,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  were	&#13;  opposed	&#13;  to	&#13;  this.	&#13;  And	&#13;  yet	&#13;  
this	&#13;  affected	&#13;  me	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  changed.	&#13;  It	&#13;  really	&#13;  changed	&#13;  me.	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  
experience	&#13;  of	&#13;  being	&#13;  at	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill.	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill,	&#13;  of	&#13;  all	&#13;  places,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  this	&#13;  little	&#13;  oasis	&#13;  in	&#13;  
this	&#13;  horrible	&#13;  hinterland	&#13;  of	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina.	&#13;  Jesse	&#13;  Helms	&#13;  and	&#13;  all.	&#13;  [U.S.	&#13;  Senator]	&#13;  Jesse	&#13;  
Helms	&#13;  remarked	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  that	&#13;  a	&#13;  wall	&#13;  should	&#13;  be	&#13;  built	&#13;  around	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill	&#13;  and	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  
should	&#13;  be	&#13;  let	&#13;  out.	&#13;  He	&#13;  did	&#13;  say	&#13;  something	&#13;  along	&#13;  those	&#13;  lines,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  point.	&#13;  You	&#13;  
spend	&#13;  too	&#13;  much	&#13;  time	&#13;  at	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill,	&#13;  you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  leave.	&#13;  You’re	&#13;  spoiled.	&#13;  And	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
people	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  met	&#13;  there	&#13;  actually	&#13;  said	&#13;  that.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  feeling.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  
a	&#13;  really	&#13;  nice	&#13;  place.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
16:15	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  saying,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  progressive	&#13;  Mecca	&#13;  for	&#13;  young	&#13;  people,	&#13;  or	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  
a	&#13;  proving	&#13;  ground	&#13;  for	&#13;  becoming	&#13;  politicized?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
16:26	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  wide	&#13;  open	&#13;  nice	&#13;  feeling.	&#13;  Very	&#13;  broad	&#13;  minded,	&#13;  very	&#13;  open.	&#13;  One	&#13;  example:	&#13;  
campus	&#13;  faced	&#13;  up	&#13;  onto	&#13;  Franklin	&#13;  Street,	&#13;  the	&#13;  main	&#13;  street	&#13;  through	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  
old	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  campus,	&#13;  it	&#13;  goes	&#13;  back	&#13;  many,	&#13;  many	&#13;  years.	&#13;  Eighteenth	&#13;  century	&#13;  [it]	&#13;  started.	&#13;  
Across	&#13;  the	&#13;  street	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  main	&#13;  part	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  Post	&#13;  Office	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  front	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  Post	&#13;  Office	&#13;  
there	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  anti-­‐war	&#13;  demonstration,	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time.	&#13;  And	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  
the	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  protest	&#13;  were	&#13;  sixty	&#13;  plus	&#13;  [years	&#13;  old],	&#13;  gray	&#13;  hair,	&#13;  whatever,	&#13;  with	&#13;  signs	&#13;  
and	&#13;  whatnot,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill	&#13;  was.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill	&#13;  was	&#13;  then.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
guess	&#13;  it	&#13;  still	&#13;  is.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:31	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  I	&#13;  wonder	&#13;  if	&#13;  we	&#13;  can	&#13;  go	&#13;  back,	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit,	&#13;  because	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  before	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Chapel	&#13;  Hill	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  found	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  here,	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  to	&#13;  Tradewinds.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
that	&#13;  was	&#13;  during	&#13;  your	&#13;  college	&#13;  years,	&#13;  so,	&#13;  to	&#13;  clarify,	&#13;  it	&#13;  sounds	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  college	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  an	&#13;  
open	&#13;  place	&#13;  in	&#13;  your	&#13;  time	&#13;  here,	&#13;  but	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  city	&#13;  you	&#13;  found	&#13;  community?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:55	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  on	&#13;  campus	&#13;  enough	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  in,	&#13;  I	&#13;  took	&#13;  classes,	&#13;  I	&#13;  socialized	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  
few	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  waiting	&#13;  between	&#13;  classes	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  
to	&#13;  leave.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  found	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that	&#13;  on	&#13;  campus	&#13;  here.	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Roanoke,	&#13;  downtown	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  wide	&#13;  open	&#13;  then.	&#13;  Really	&#13;  was.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
18:25	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  

2	&#13;  In	&#13;  the	&#13;  aftermath	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  shooting	&#13;  and	&#13;  killing	&#13;  of	&#13;  four	&#13;  students	&#13;  at	&#13;  Kent	&#13;  State	&#13;  University	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  Ohio	&#13;  

National	&#13;  Guard	&#13;  on	&#13;  May	&#13;  4,	&#13;  1970,	&#13;  college	&#13;  students	&#13;  across	&#13;  the	&#13;  country	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  strike.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  largest	&#13;  
student	&#13;  strike	&#13;  in	&#13;  U.S.	&#13;  history.	&#13;  

	&#13;  
9	&#13;  

�GR:	&#13;  Tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  being	&#13;  “wide	&#13;  open.”	&#13;  Besides	&#13;  Tradewinds,	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  other	&#13;  
meeting	&#13;  places?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
18:32	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  Bullitt	&#13;  Avenue,	&#13;  Greyhound	&#13;  bus	&#13;  station.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  place	&#13;  on	&#13;  
Jefferson	&#13;  Street	&#13;  called	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Diner,	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  great.	&#13;  Neat	&#13;  little	&#13;  place.	&#13;  If	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
there	&#13;  now	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  such	&#13;  a	&#13;  hot	&#13;  little	&#13;  place,	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  typical	&#13;  dining	&#13;  car	&#13;  
thing.	&#13;  Booths,	&#13;  bar,	&#13;  whole	&#13;  bit.	&#13;  Blue	&#13;  and	&#13;  brushed	&#13;  aluminum.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  great.	&#13;  Jefferson	&#13;  
Street:	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  street,	&#13;  all	&#13;  through	&#13;  town,	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  walk.	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  other	&#13;  places	&#13;  at	&#13;  
other	&#13;  times,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  basically	&#13;  the	&#13;  area	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  place.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:20	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  saying	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  walk	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  down	&#13;  Jefferson	&#13;  and	&#13;  meet	&#13;  other	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
men?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:23	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:24	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  In	&#13;  the	&#13;  evening?	&#13;

DJ:	&#13;  From	&#13;  noon	&#13;  on.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:27	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  From	&#13;  noon	&#13;  on?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:28	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:30	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  And,	&#13;  well,	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  Tradewinds	&#13;  like	&#13;  before	&#13;  gay	&#13;  liberation?	&#13;  Before	&#13;  
the	&#13;  whole…	&#13;  we’ll	&#13;  get	&#13;  to	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  that...	&#13;  before	&#13;  you	&#13;  guys	&#13;  were	&#13;  there	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  
organization.	&#13;  What	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  like	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘60s?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:50	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  People	&#13;  look	&#13;  back	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  that	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  live	&#13;  through	&#13;  it,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  think	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  all	&#13;  
dark	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  all	&#13;  bad	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  all	&#13;  hiding	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  shadows,	&#13;  well	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t.	&#13;  I	&#13;  recently	&#13;  
read	&#13;  something	&#13;  about—which	&#13;  I	&#13;  will	&#13;  bring	&#13;  you	&#13;  at	&#13;  some	&#13;  point—something	&#13;  an	&#13;  English	&#13;  
author	&#13;  named	&#13;  James	&#13;  Kirkup,	&#13;  an	&#13;  English	&#13;  poet,	&#13;  wrote	&#13;  in	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  his	&#13;  autobiographies	&#13;  
about…	&#13;  [switching	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  original	&#13;  subject]	&#13;  We	&#13;  put	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  lot,	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
went	&#13;  on,	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  deal	&#13;  with	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  like.	&#13;  But	&#13;  during	&#13;  that	&#13;  
whole	&#13;  thing	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  laughing	&#13;  our	&#13;  butts	&#13;  off	&#13;  and	&#13;  having	&#13;  a	&#13;  ball.	&#13;  A	&#13;  whole	&#13;  lot	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  
underneath	&#13;  the	&#13;  public’s	&#13;  notice,	&#13;  underneath	&#13;  the	&#13;  straight	&#13;  society’s	&#13;  notice.	&#13;  You	&#13;  
changed	&#13;  pronouns	&#13;  from	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  time.	&#13;  People	&#13;  went	&#13;  by	&#13;  pseudonyms	&#13;  of	&#13;  one	&#13;  sort	&#13;  or	&#13;  
another.	&#13;  You	&#13;  had	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park	&#13;  was	&#13;  “Ellen	&#13;  Woods.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  Ellen	&#13;  Woods.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
10	&#13;  

�You	&#13;  could	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  anywhere	&#13;  and	&#13;  if	&#13;  someone	&#13;  questioned	&#13;  it,	&#13;  “oh	&#13;  yeah,	&#13;  well	&#13;  Ellen…	&#13;  
you	&#13;  know	&#13;  Ellen.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  But	&#13;  people	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  terrible	&#13;  you	&#13;  
had	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  terrible.	&#13;  Yes	&#13;  it	&#13;  was.	&#13;  But	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  like	&#13;  being	&#13;  a	&#13;  
part	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  secret	&#13;  society.	&#13;  Like,	&#13;  I	&#13;  suggested	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  person:	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  anywhere	&#13;  in	&#13;  
the	&#13;  country	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lodge,	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  Elks	&#13;  or	&#13;  the	&#13;  Moose,	&#13;  or	&#13;  any	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
others.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lodge,	&#13;  anywhere	&#13;  you	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  go,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  community	&#13;  
there.	&#13;  You	&#13;  may	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  hunt	&#13;  for	&#13;  them,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  there.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
The	&#13;  Tradewinds	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  nice	&#13;  little	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  down	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  basement.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  very	&#13;  
large,	&#13;  but	&#13;  quite	&#13;  often	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  packed.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Georges	&#13;  who	&#13;  ran	&#13;  it	&#13;  were	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  down	&#13;  with	&#13;  
what	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  allow,	&#13;  not	&#13;  allow.	&#13;  Drag	&#13;  was	&#13;  only	&#13;  allowed	&#13;  on	&#13;  Halloween.	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  
also	&#13;  ABC	&#13;  [Virginia	&#13;  Department	&#13;  of	&#13;  Alcoholic	&#13;  Beverage	&#13;  Control]	&#13;  laws	&#13;  which	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  
to	&#13;  follow.	&#13;  We	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  quite	&#13;  realize	&#13;  exactly	&#13;  what	&#13;  those	&#13;  were,	&#13;  and	&#13;  how	&#13;  much	&#13;  that	&#13;  
influenced	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  said	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  or	&#13;  could	&#13;  not	&#13;  do.	&#13;  But	&#13;  those	&#13;  were	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  
mixed,	&#13;  men	&#13;  and	&#13;  women.	&#13;  Which	&#13;  was	&#13;  nice.	&#13;  We	&#13;  sat	&#13;  together.	&#13;  We	&#13;  partied	&#13;  together.	&#13;  
There	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  age	&#13;  differentiation.	&#13;  You	&#13;  might	&#13;  go	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  sit	&#13;  down	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  table.	&#13;  The	&#13;  
person	&#13;  at	&#13;  one	&#13;  end	&#13;  might	&#13;  be	&#13;  seventy	&#13;  or	&#13;  more.	&#13;  The	&#13;  person	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  end	&#13;  might	&#13;  be	&#13;  
eighteen.	&#13;  You	&#13;  might	&#13;  be	&#13;  good	&#13;  friends.	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  might	&#13;  party	&#13;  together.	&#13;  And	&#13;  there	&#13;  
wasn’t	&#13;  that	&#13;  ageist	&#13;  business.	&#13;  Looking	&#13;  back,	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  no	&#13;  blacks.	&#13;  Blacks	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  
allowed.	&#13;  Did	&#13;  not	&#13;  come	&#13;  in.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  recall	&#13;  ever	&#13;  seeing	&#13;  anyone	&#13;  black.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  something	&#13;  I	&#13;  
will	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  about.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  policy	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Tradewinds,	&#13;  
the	&#13;  Georges,	&#13;  or	&#13;  not.	&#13;  But,	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘60s	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  this	&#13;  point	&#13;  when	&#13;  things	&#13;  were	&#13;  changing.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  
they	&#13;  may	&#13;  simply	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  welcome.	&#13;  And	&#13;  very	&#13;  well	&#13;  may	&#13;  not	&#13;  have	&#13;  been.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  Later,	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  that	&#13;  very	&#13;  distasteful.	&#13;  All	&#13;  the	&#13;  bars	&#13;  later	&#13;  
were	&#13;  mixed.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:38	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Let	&#13;  me	&#13;  ask	&#13;  one	&#13;  more	&#13;  thing	&#13;  about	&#13;  Tradewinds,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  we	&#13;  can	&#13;  come	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Tradewinds	&#13;  after	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  back	&#13;  from	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill,	&#13;  and	&#13;  ask	&#13;  about	&#13;  how	&#13;  it	&#13;  has	&#13;  changed	&#13;  
over	&#13;  time.	&#13;  But	&#13;  still	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘60s,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
basement,	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  feel	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  straight	&#13;  community	&#13;  knew…	&#13;  well,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  heard	&#13;  different	&#13;  
things	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  correct	&#13;  me,	&#13;  whether	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  back	&#13;  alley	&#13;  entrance	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
bar,	&#13;  versus	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  a	&#13;  straight	&#13;  restaurant?	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  the	&#13;  straight	&#13;  community	&#13;  
knew	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  part?	&#13;  Did	&#13;  the	&#13;  Georges	&#13;  family	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  keep	&#13;  those	&#13;  two	&#13;  things	&#13;  
separate?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
24:24	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Okay,	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  park	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  back,	&#13;  and	&#13;  go	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  back	&#13;  door,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  
because	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  parked.	&#13;  There	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  place	&#13;  to	&#13;  park.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  
Franklin	&#13;  Road.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  parking	&#13;  out	&#13;  front,	&#13;  so	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  park	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  back.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  
were	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  ground-­‐floor	&#13;  restaurant,	&#13;  which	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  there	&#13;  for	&#13;  many,	&#13;  many	&#13;  
years,	&#13;  you	&#13;  parked	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  back	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  rule	&#13;  because	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  other	&#13;  place.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
everybody	&#13;  went	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  back.	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  some	&#13;  people	&#13;  did	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  walk	&#13;  around	&#13;  and	&#13;  go	&#13;  in	&#13;  
the	&#13;  front	&#13;  door	&#13;  or	&#13;  something,	&#13;  or	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  park	&#13;  somewhere	&#13;  else	&#13;  and	&#13;  walk	&#13;  over	&#13;  or	&#13;  
something,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  recall	&#13;  ever	&#13;  going	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  front	&#13;  door.	&#13;  And	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  staircase	&#13;  
that	&#13;  went	&#13;  down	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  basement	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  front.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  recall	&#13;  anybody…	&#13;  well,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11	&#13;  

�once	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  while	&#13;  I	&#13;  recall	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  some	&#13;  police	&#13;  coming	&#13;  in	&#13;  one	&#13;  time,	&#13;  coming	&#13;  down	&#13;  that	&#13;  
staircase,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  in.	&#13;  But	&#13;  no,	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  parked	&#13;  
in	&#13;  the	&#13;  back	&#13;  because	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  the	&#13;  lot	&#13;  was.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  convenient.	&#13;  As	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  
people	&#13;  upstairs	&#13;  knew—straight	&#13;  people	&#13;  knew—I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know.	&#13;  There	&#13;  
was	&#13;  never	&#13;  any	&#13;  hassle,	&#13;  any	&#13;  problem,	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  would	&#13;  
sometimes—I	&#13;  never	&#13;  really	&#13;  did,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  did—go	&#13;  upstairs	&#13;  and	&#13;  order	&#13;  
food	&#13;  and	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
25:53	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Diner.	&#13;  Was	&#13;  that	&#13;  a	&#13;  place	&#13;  where	&#13;  gays	&#13;  would	&#13;  hang	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  one	&#13;  booth	&#13;  and	&#13;  
there	&#13;  might	&#13;  be	&#13;  straight	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  next	&#13;  booth	&#13;  over?	&#13;  Very	&#13;  mixed?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
26:04	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  Mixed	&#13;  during	&#13;  the	&#13;  daytime,	&#13;  but	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  evenings	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  gay.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  
people	&#13;  were	&#13;  either	&#13;  in	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park	&#13;  or	&#13;  on	&#13;  Bullitt	&#13;  Avenue	&#13;  or	&#13;  something,	&#13;  sometimes	&#13;  
on	&#13;  foot,	&#13;  or	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  park	&#13;  on	&#13;  Bullitt	&#13;  and	&#13;  walk	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  diner	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  either	&#13;  get	&#13;  
food	&#13;  or	&#13;  coffee	&#13;  or	&#13;  beer	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever.	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  who	&#13;  went	&#13;  there	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  
Others	&#13;  never	&#13;  went	&#13;  there.	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  remember	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  over	&#13;  there	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  during	&#13;  the	&#13;  day	&#13;  
and	&#13;  afternoon	&#13;  or	&#13;  something,	&#13;  and	&#13;  talking	&#13;  with	&#13;  two	&#13;  guys	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  considerably	&#13;  
older	&#13;  than	&#13;  me,	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  be	&#13;  delighting	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  conversation.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  in	&#13;  particular	&#13;  
had	&#13;  this	&#13;  witty	&#13;  charm	&#13;  about	&#13;  him,	&#13;  and	&#13;  had	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  different	&#13;  places	&#13;  and	&#13;  
everything,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  fun	&#13;  to	&#13;  listen	&#13;  to.	&#13;  Telling	&#13;  tales	&#13;  about	&#13;  being	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  Orleans	&#13;  
at	&#13;  a	&#13;  place	&#13;  called	&#13;  the	&#13;  My-­‐O-­‐My	&#13;  Club,	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  very	&#13;  well	&#13;  documented.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  
know	&#13;  what	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  doing	&#13;  there,	&#13;  or	&#13;  why,	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  still	&#13;  remember	&#13;  those	&#13;  
two	&#13;  in	&#13;  particular.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  their	&#13;  names.	&#13;  But	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  both	&#13;  gone.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
27:37	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  UNC	&#13;  you	&#13;  became	&#13;  politicized,	&#13;  you	&#13;  say.	&#13;  During	&#13;  that	&#13;  year	&#13;  
were	&#13;  you	&#13;  involved	&#13;  with	&#13;  any	&#13;  gay	&#13;  activism?	&#13;  Was	&#13;  there	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  liberation	&#13;  group	&#13;  there?	&#13;  
Was	&#13;  there	&#13;  any	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  conversation	&#13;  going	&#13;  on?	&#13;  Or	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  more	&#13;  just	&#13;  the	&#13;  anti-­‐war	&#13;  
movement	&#13;  and	&#13;  those	&#13;  kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  things?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:04	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  any	&#13;  gay	&#13;  group	&#13;  there.	&#13;  There	&#13;  may	&#13;  have	&#13;  been,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  not	&#13;  aware	&#13;  
of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  The	&#13;  anti-­‐war	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  Kent	&#13;  State	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  created	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  turmoil.	&#13;  The	&#13;  
school	&#13;  closed	&#13;  down	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while.	&#13;  Shut	&#13;  down.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  buildings	&#13;  were	&#13;  picketed.	&#13;  To	&#13;  get	&#13;  to	&#13;  
class	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  choose	&#13;  whether	&#13;  you	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  cross	&#13;  that	&#13;  picket	&#13;  line	&#13;  or	&#13;  not.	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  
cross	&#13;  it	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  times.	&#13;  I	&#13;  felt	&#13;  bad	&#13;  about	&#13;  doing	&#13;  it.	&#13;  To	&#13;  this	&#13;  day	&#13;  I	&#13;  won’t	&#13;  cross	&#13;  a	&#13;  picket	&#13;  line	&#13;  of	&#13;  
any	&#13;  kind	&#13;  for	&#13;  any	&#13;  reason.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  won’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Cause	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  friends	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  
side.	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  one	&#13;  woman	&#13;  in	&#13;  particular	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  liked	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  lot,	&#13;  and	&#13;  saw	&#13;  a	&#13;  
lot,	&#13;  because	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  library	&#13;  school,	&#13;  too.	&#13;  We	&#13;  got	&#13;  in	&#13;  some	&#13;  really	&#13;  heated	&#13;  
arguments	&#13;  and	&#13;  things,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  changed	&#13;  our	&#13;  relationship.	&#13;  I	&#13;  regretted	&#13;  that.	&#13;  It	&#13;  just	&#13;  
changed	&#13;  my	&#13;  whole	&#13;  perception,	&#13;  my	&#13;  whole	&#13;  belief	&#13;  system.	&#13;  An	&#13;  experience	&#13;  I	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  
trade	&#13;  for	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
29:28	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12	&#13;  

�GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  move	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  in	&#13;  summer	&#13;  of	&#13;  1970?	&#13;  You	&#13;  just	&#13;  spent	&#13;  one	&#13;  year	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Chapel	&#13;  Hill?	&#13;  Or,	&#13;  what	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  after	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
29:42	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Would	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  the	&#13;  fall	&#13;  of	&#13;  ’66,	&#13;  spring	&#13;  of	&#13;  ’67?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
29:49	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  You	&#13;  graduated	&#13;  from	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  in	&#13;  ’69.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
29:52	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  ’69.	&#13;  Okay,	&#13;  right.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  the	&#13;  fall	&#13;  of	&#13;  ’69.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  until	&#13;  fall	&#13;  of	&#13;  ’70.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  
came	&#13;  back	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  fall	&#13;  of	&#13;  ’70.	&#13;  [DJ	&#13;  addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  definitely	&#13;  fall	&#13;  of	&#13;  1970	&#13;  
that	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke.]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
30:04	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  [I’m]	&#13;  wondering,	&#13;  what	&#13;  happened	&#13;  next?	&#13;  Did	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  job?	&#13;  You	&#13;  came	&#13;  back	&#13;  to…	&#13;  
what	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  on?	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  very	&#13;  soon	&#13;  after	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  of	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  
gets	&#13;  going.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  walk	&#13;  me	&#13;  through	&#13;  coming	&#13;  back	&#13;  from	&#13;  Chapel	&#13;  Hill,	&#13;  
how	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  get	&#13;  from	&#13;  having	&#13;  a	&#13;  degree	&#13;  in	&#13;  Library	&#13;  Science	&#13;  to	&#13;  getting	&#13;  involved	&#13;  with	&#13;  
gay	&#13;  liberation	&#13;  activism?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
30:37	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  job	&#13;  waiting	&#13;  for	&#13;  me,	&#13;  so	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  back	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  job.	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  work,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
after	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  while	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  living	&#13;  at	&#13;  home,	&#13;  and,	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  mentioned,	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  on	&#13;  my	&#13;  own,	&#13;  
picked	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  friends	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  already	&#13;  had,	&#13;  a	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  whom	&#13;  I	&#13;  kept	&#13;  in	&#13;  
touch	&#13;  with	&#13;  while	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  away.	&#13;  Picked	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  them,	&#13;  met	&#13;  more	&#13;  people,	&#13;  made	&#13;  new	&#13;  
friends.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  gradually,	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  probably	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  later,	&#13;  in	&#13;  ’71,	&#13;  something	&#13;  
like	&#13;  that,	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  just	&#13;  started	&#13;  discussing	&#13;  these	&#13;  things.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  becoming	&#13;  aware	&#13;  
of	&#13;  Stonewall.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  becoming	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  were	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  wider	&#13;  
community.	&#13;  And	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  feeling	&#13;  among	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  put	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  that	&#13;  just	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  right,	&#13;  and	&#13;  gradually	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  had	&#13;  
just	&#13;  gelled,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  decided	&#13;  to	&#13;  start…	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  started	&#13;  with	&#13;  just	&#13;  conversations,	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  
just	&#13;  gatherings	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  would	&#13;  just	&#13;  talk,	&#13;  and	&#13;  lots	&#13;  of	&#13;  times	&#13;  at	&#13;  my	&#13;  apartment.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  it	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  came	&#13;  about.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
32:09	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  remember	&#13;  where	&#13;  your	&#13;  apartment	&#13;  was?	&#13;  Were	&#13;  you	&#13;  in	&#13;  Old	&#13;  Southwest?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
32:12	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  Old	&#13;  Southwest.	&#13;  Old	&#13;  Southwest	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  much	&#13;  the	&#13;  “gay	&#13;  ghetto,”	&#13;  so	&#13;  to	&#13;  speak.	&#13;  
I’ve	&#13;  always	&#13;  said	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  who	&#13;  preserved	&#13;  Old	&#13;  Southwest	&#13;  until	&#13;  it	&#13;  
could	&#13;  be	&#13;  turned	&#13;  around,	&#13;  and	&#13;  gotten	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  hands	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  slumlords.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
32:32	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So,	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  recall	&#13;  anything	&#13;  about	&#13;  this	&#13;  early	&#13;  group?	&#13;  As	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  founding	&#13;  it,	&#13;  in	&#13;  
terms	&#13;  of,	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  involved?	&#13;  Was	&#13;  it	&#13;  a	&#13;  mix	&#13;  of	&#13;  men	&#13;  and	&#13;  women?	&#13;  Was	&#13;  it	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  men?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13	&#13;  

�Was	&#13;  it	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  college-­‐age	&#13;  or	&#13;  just	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  twenties?	&#13;  What	&#13;  was	&#13;  your	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  
the	&#13;  early	&#13;  group?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
32:56	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Most	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  involved	&#13;  were	&#13;  young.	&#13;  Twenties,	&#13;  early	&#13;  twenties,	&#13;  mid-­‐twenties.	&#13;  
Education	&#13;  level	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  wide	&#13;  gammit.	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  some	&#13;  women	&#13;  involved.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
real	&#13;  divide	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  between…	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  termed	&#13;  the	&#13;  “park	&#13;  
people”	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  “bar	&#13;  people.”	&#13;  The	&#13;  two	&#13;  would	&#13;  cross	&#13;  paths,	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar	&#13;  at	&#13;  
the	&#13;  time,	&#13;  I	&#13;  hung	&#13;  out	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  park	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  time,	&#13;  and	&#13;  went	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  forth	&#13;  between	&#13;  the	&#13;  two,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  difference	&#13;  between	&#13;  the	&#13;  two,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  socio-­‐economic	&#13;  difference	&#13;  
as	&#13;  much	&#13;  as	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar	&#13;  all	&#13;  
the	&#13;  time,	&#13;  older,	&#13;  more	&#13;  established,	&#13;  better	&#13;  off	&#13;  economically.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  dawned	&#13;  on	&#13;  me	&#13;  one	&#13;  
day	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  more	&#13;  to	&#13;  lose.	&#13;  They	&#13;  never	&#13;  supported	&#13;  us.	&#13;  The	&#13;  people,	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  
group,	&#13;  supported	&#13;  us.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  included	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  drag	&#13;  queens,	&#13;  or	&#13;  just	&#13;  
a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  did	&#13;  drag	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  lark	&#13;  from	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  time,	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  either	&#13;  
unemployed	&#13;  or	&#13;  employed	&#13;  in	&#13;  low-­‐level	&#13;  jobs.	&#13;  Now	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  was.	&#13;  
There	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  wide	&#13;  variety.	&#13;  But	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  socially	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  people,	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  
group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  did	&#13;  support	&#13;  us.	&#13;  But	&#13;  getting	&#13;  support	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  
as	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  was	&#13;  very,	&#13;  very	&#13;  difficult.	&#13;  We	&#13;  never	&#13;  had	&#13;  any	&#13;  money.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  raise	&#13;  
money.	&#13;  We	&#13;  always	&#13;  passed	&#13;  the	&#13;  hat.	&#13;  Tried	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  nickels	&#13;  and	&#13;  dimes.	&#13;  We	&#13;  came	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  
a	&#13;  method	&#13;  of	&#13;  putting	&#13;  on	&#13;  these	&#13;  parties,	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine	&#13;  put	&#13;  this	&#13;  together	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  
came	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “we	&#13;  can	&#13;  do	&#13;  this	&#13;  party	&#13;  and	&#13;  charge	&#13;  an	&#13;  admission	&#13;  charge	&#13;  of	&#13;  five	&#13;  
bucks	&#13;  a	&#13;  head	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  can	&#13;  give	&#13;  them	&#13;  free	&#13;  booze	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’ll	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  ahead.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  You	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “sure	&#13;  we	&#13;  can.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  did	&#13;  it.	&#13;  A	&#13;  
couple	&#13;  times.	&#13;  And	&#13;  made	&#13;  money,	&#13;  got	&#13;  into	&#13;  some	&#13;  trouble	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  owned	&#13;  
the	&#13;  apartment	&#13;  complex	&#13;  where	&#13;  the	&#13;  room	&#13;  was	&#13;  [that]	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  using,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that	&#13;  passed.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
35:31	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  also	&#13;  the	&#13;  “trash	&#13;  flash”	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  read	&#13;  about	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Big	&#13;  Lick	&#13;  Gayzette.	&#13;  You	&#13;  were	&#13;  
collecting	&#13;  recyclables	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  parking	&#13;  lot	&#13;  behind	&#13;  Tradewinds?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
35:40	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  We	&#13;  tried	&#13;  that,	&#13;  just	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  way	&#13;  to	&#13;  raise	&#13;  anything,	&#13;  raise	&#13;  money,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  never	&#13;  
really	&#13;  worked	&#13;  very	&#13;  well.	&#13;  We	&#13;  did	&#13;  that	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  times.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  did	&#13;  
was	&#13;  getting	&#13;  the	&#13;  use	&#13;  of	&#13;  St.	&#13;  James	&#13;  Episcopal	&#13;  Church	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  place.	&#13;  We	&#13;  met	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  
apartment	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  got	&#13;  [to	&#13;  be]	&#13;  too	&#13;  many	&#13;  people,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  looking	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  
place.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  our	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  worked	&#13;  very	&#13;  closely	&#13;  with	&#13;  it,	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  guy	&#13;  whose	&#13;  name	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  
mention.	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  gone	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  would	&#13;  not	&#13;  mind.	&#13;  His	&#13;  name	&#13;  is	&#13;  Lee	&#13;  Cruise.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  
always	&#13;  very	&#13;  supportive	&#13;  and	&#13;  very	&#13;  active	&#13;  and	&#13;  very	&#13;  much	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  He	&#13;  had	&#13;  
attended	&#13;  St.	&#13;  James	&#13;  Episcopal	&#13;  Church	&#13;  and	&#13;  knew	&#13;  the	&#13;  pastor	&#13;  there.	&#13;  So	&#13;  he	&#13;  contacted	&#13;  him	&#13;  
and	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  him	&#13;  and	&#13;  we,	&#13;  Lee	&#13;  and	&#13;  I,	&#13;  went	&#13;  and	&#13;  met	&#13;  the	&#13;  vestry.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  
had	&#13;  ever	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  straight	&#13;  group	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  Totally	&#13;  scared	&#13;  to	&#13;  death.	&#13;  Did	&#13;  not	&#13;  
know	&#13;  what	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  reception	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  get,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  remember	&#13;  it	&#13;  very,	&#13;  very	&#13;  clearly.	&#13;  
But	&#13;  we	&#13;  went.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  nice.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  polite.	&#13;  They	&#13;  asked	&#13;  us	&#13;  pertinent	&#13;  
kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  questions.	&#13;  They	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  ask	&#13;  us	&#13;  the	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  salacious	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  crap	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  
always	&#13;  anticipate	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  ask.	&#13;  They	&#13;  didn’t.	&#13;  They	&#13;  asked	&#13;  us	&#13;  how	&#13;  big	&#13;  the	&#13;  
	&#13;  
14	&#13;  

�organization	&#13;  was,	&#13;  how	&#13;  many	&#13;  people	&#13;  we’d	&#13;  have,	&#13;  how	&#13;  long	&#13;  it	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  going,	&#13;  where	&#13;  
did	&#13;  we	&#13;  get	&#13;  revenue,	&#13;  how	&#13;  our	&#13;  meetings	&#13;  were	&#13;  conducted.	&#13;  They	&#13;  asked	&#13;  very	&#13;  pertinent	&#13;  
kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  things.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  treated	&#13;  us	&#13;  with	&#13;  respect.	&#13;  Lee	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  with	&#13;  [a	&#13;  
feeling	&#13;  of]	&#13;  “wow,	&#13;  this	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  cool	&#13;  experience!”	&#13;  It	&#13;  really	&#13;  was.	&#13;  We	&#13;  got	&#13;  word	&#13;  a	&#13;  week	&#13;  or	&#13;  
so	&#13;  later	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  use	&#13;  the	&#13;  parish	&#13;  hall.	&#13;  They	&#13;  gave	&#13;  us	&#13;  a	&#13;  key.	&#13;  We	&#13;  never	&#13;  saw	&#13;  them	&#13;  
again.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  show	&#13;  up	&#13;  on	&#13;  Sunday	&#13;  afternoons,	&#13;  unlock	&#13;  the	&#13;  parish	&#13;  hall,	&#13;  prop	&#13;  the	&#13;  
door	&#13;  open.	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  run	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  place.	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  stayed	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
church.	&#13;  We	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  just	&#13;  by	&#13;  going	&#13;  through	&#13;  these	&#13;  doors	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  place	&#13;  was	&#13;  
wide	&#13;  open	&#13;  to	&#13;  us.	&#13;  But	&#13;  we	&#13;  made	&#13;  a	&#13;  point	&#13;  of	&#13;  staying	&#13;  right	&#13;  where	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  supposed	&#13;  to	&#13;  
be.	&#13;  Never	&#13;  hassled,	&#13;  never	&#13;  bothered,	&#13;  never	&#13;  any	&#13;  problems	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  series	&#13;  
of	&#13;  letters	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  editor—this	&#13;  is	&#13;  all	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspaper,	&#13;  all	&#13;  about	&#13;  this.	&#13;  Our	&#13;  names	&#13;  
weren’t,	&#13;  but	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspaper.	&#13;  And	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  articles	&#13;  
about	&#13;  the	&#13;  fact	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  group	&#13;  had	&#13;  gotten	&#13;  started,	&#13;  about	&#13;  this	&#13;  at	&#13;  St.	&#13;  James,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
several	&#13;  members	&#13;  of	&#13;  St.	&#13;  James	&#13;  got	&#13;  really	&#13;  upset	&#13;  and	&#13;  quit	&#13;  the	&#13;  church.	&#13;  The	&#13;  church	&#13;  just	&#13;  
said	&#13;  “bye”	&#13;  to	&#13;  them.	&#13;  But	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  record	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspaper	&#13;  articles.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  
got	&#13;  all	&#13;  those.	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  met	&#13;  there	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  place.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
39:06	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  did	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  of	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  Valley—did	&#13;  you	&#13;  ever	&#13;  use	&#13;  Tradewinds	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  
meeting	&#13;  place?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
39:14	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  No.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
39:14	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  about…	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  your	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  with	&#13;  Tradewinds	&#13;  was	&#13;  rocky…	&#13;  
but	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  about,	&#13;  well	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  about	&#13;  your	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Activists	&#13;  
Alliance	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  City,	&#13;  or	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  these	&#13;  other	&#13;  larger	&#13;  groups…	&#13;  So	&#13;  what	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  
story	&#13;  behind	&#13;  that	&#13;  of	&#13;  Morty	&#13;  [Manford]	&#13;  and	&#13;  Lew	&#13;  [of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Activists	&#13;  Alliance]	&#13;  coming	&#13;  
down,	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  came	&#13;  and	&#13;  met	&#13;  you	&#13;  at	&#13;  Tradewinds?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
39:38	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
39:39	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  founding	&#13;  the	&#13;  GARV	&#13;  [Gay	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  
Valley]	&#13;  were	&#13;  you	&#13;  in	&#13;  communication	&#13;  with	&#13;  them	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  and	&#13;  invited	&#13;  them	&#13;  down,	&#13;  
or	&#13;  did	&#13;  they	&#13;  find	&#13;  you?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
39:51	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  written	&#13;  about	&#13;  that	&#13;  book	&#13;  in	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  histories.3	&#13;  It	&#13;  might	&#13;  be	&#13;  James	&#13;  
Sears’	&#13;  books,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  sure	&#13;  [DJ	&#13;  addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  sure	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  in	&#13;  James	&#13;  
Sears’s	&#13;  books,	&#13;  but	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  some	&#13;  history	&#13;  written	&#13;  somewhere	&#13;  about	&#13;  John	&#13;  Francis	&#13;  Hunter	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  

3	&#13;  The	&#13;  book	&#13;  in	&#13;  question	&#13;  is	&#13;  John	&#13;  Francis	&#13;  Hunter,	&#13;  The	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Insider:	&#13;  USA	&#13;  (New	&#13;  York:	&#13;  Stonehill	&#13;  Publishing,	&#13;  

1972).	&#13;  

	&#13;  
15	&#13;  

�and	&#13;  how	&#13;  that	&#13;  book	&#13;  came	&#13;  together.	&#13;  Look	&#13;  at	&#13;  1960s-­‐era	&#13;  Damron	&#13;  guide	&#13;  book,	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  guide	&#13;  
book	&#13;  that	&#13;  may	&#13;  have	&#13;  listed	&#13;  The	&#13;  Tradewinds	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  1960s].	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  read	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  
stuff.	&#13;  They	&#13;  [two	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Activists	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  (GAA)	&#13;  members]	&#13;  were	&#13;  traveling	&#13;  around	&#13;  the	&#13;  
country	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  place.	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  in	&#13;  our	&#13;  files	&#13;  a	&#13;  thing	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  publisher	&#13;  [of	&#13;  The	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  
Insider]	&#13;  asking	&#13;  to	&#13;  fill	&#13;  out	&#13;  information	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  gay	&#13;  places	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  community,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  all	&#13;  this	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  all	&#13;  filled	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  I	&#13;  assume	&#13;  we	&#13;  sent	&#13;  it	&#13;  
in,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  verify	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  did.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  files.	&#13;  They	&#13;  [the	&#13;  two	&#13;  GAA	&#13;  
activists]	&#13;  showed	&#13;  up	&#13;  one	&#13;  night.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  in	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  communication	&#13;  with	&#13;  
them.	&#13;  We	&#13;  got	&#13;  literature	&#13;  and	&#13;  various	&#13;  kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  things,	&#13;  newspapers	&#13;  from	&#13;  New	&#13;  York,	&#13;  
D.C.,	&#13;  all	&#13;  this	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  We	&#13;  traded	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  publications	&#13;  all	&#13;  around.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  
information,	&#13;  news,	&#13;  from	&#13;  all	&#13;  over.	&#13;  We	&#13;  got	&#13;  our	&#13;  name	&#13;  out	&#13;  all	&#13;  over.	&#13;  They	&#13;  showed	&#13;  up	&#13;  one	&#13;  
night	&#13;  and	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  with	&#13;  recognized	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  from	&#13;  having	&#13;  
seen	&#13;  his	&#13;  picture	&#13;  in	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspapers,	&#13;  took	&#13;  a	&#13;  shine	&#13;  to	&#13;  him.	&#13;  And	&#13;  sometimes	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
of	&#13;  times	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  Tradewinds,	&#13;  strangers	&#13;  come	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  knew	&#13;  people	&#13;  were	&#13;  strangers.	&#13;  
You	&#13;  just	&#13;  knew.	&#13;  So	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  times	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  over	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  invite	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  join	&#13;  in	&#13;  or	&#13;  
something,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  it	&#13;  happen	&#13;  any	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  times.	&#13;  So	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  we	&#13;  did.	&#13;  We	&#13;  just	&#13;  
invited	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  join	&#13;  us.	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  who	&#13;  they	&#13;  were,	&#13;  and	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  them	&#13;  and	&#13;  
everything.	&#13;  Yes,	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  excited	&#13;  about	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  them.	&#13;  Yes,	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  interested	&#13;  in	&#13;  
what	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  doing,	&#13;  and	&#13;  what	&#13;  their	&#13;  experience	&#13;  [was]	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  
telling	&#13;  them	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  about	&#13;  doing	&#13;  here,	&#13;  but	&#13;  throw	&#13;  rose	&#13;  petals?	&#13;  
No.	&#13;  No,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  sorry.	&#13;  Part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  Southern	&#13;  hospitality.	&#13;  Part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  curiosity	&#13;  
about	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  doing,	&#13;  and	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  with	&#13;  them.	&#13;  Fun,	&#13;  excited	&#13;  about	&#13;  
meeting	&#13;  them.	&#13;  And	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  some	&#13;  lust.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  all	&#13;  about.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
when	&#13;  that	&#13;  book	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  read	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  said	&#13;  about	&#13;  us	&#13;  it	&#13;  just…	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  always	&#13;  
annoyed	&#13;  me.	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  that	&#13;  night.	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  it	&#13;  very	&#13;  clearly.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
42:27	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  another	&#13;  question	&#13;  about	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  what	&#13;  your	&#13;  group	&#13;  learned	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  
Gay	&#13;  Activists	&#13;  Alliance?	&#13;  Or,	&#13;  what	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  influences	&#13;  there	&#13;  may	&#13;  have	&#13;  been,	&#13;  for	&#13;  example	&#13;  
the	&#13;  use	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Lambda	&#13;  symbol,	&#13;  which	&#13;  it	&#13;  seems	&#13;  you	&#13;  used	&#13;  which	&#13;  the	&#13;  Activists	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  
in	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  was	&#13;  also	&#13;  prominently	&#13;  using,	&#13;  or	&#13;  the	&#13;  use	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  “zap”	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  direct	&#13;  
action?	&#13;  Cause	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  Big	&#13;  Lick	&#13;  Gayzette	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  “zap”	&#13;  on	&#13;  Tradewinds.	&#13;  
That	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  technique	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Activists	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  City	&#13;  had	&#13;  done.	&#13;  Was	&#13;  
the	&#13;  Lambda	&#13;  symbol,	&#13;  “zap,”	&#13;  things	&#13;  like	&#13;  this…	&#13;  were	&#13;  you	&#13;  aware	&#13;  that	&#13;  these	&#13;  were	&#13;  
influences	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  taking	&#13;  on	&#13;  locally	&#13;  from	&#13;  national….?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
43:14	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Oh	&#13;  yeah.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  reason	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  adopted.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  
the	&#13;  term	&#13;  “zap.”	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  counter-­‐cultural	&#13;  thing	&#13;  
at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time:	&#13;  the	&#13;  anti-­‐war	&#13;  movement	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  reading	&#13;  the	&#13;  
literature	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  coming	&#13;  from	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  and	&#13;  San	&#13;  Francisco,	&#13;  whatever.	&#13;  By	&#13;  trading	&#13;  
all	&#13;  these	&#13;  publications	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  also	&#13;  getting	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspapers	&#13;  and	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  
various	&#13;  ones	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  were.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  going	&#13;  on,	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  
lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  happening	&#13;  outside	&#13;  of	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  We	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  completely	&#13;  insular,	&#13;  like	&#13;  
Roanoke	&#13;  has	&#13;  a	&#13;  tendency	&#13;  to	&#13;  be.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  “there’s	&#13;  no	&#13;  world	&#13;  out	&#13;  there.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  here.”	&#13;  	&#13;

�44:02	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  remember	&#13;  that	&#13;  incident	&#13;  at	&#13;  Tradewinds?	&#13;  The	&#13;  “zap”?4	&#13;  So	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  
about?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
44:09	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  exactly	&#13;  what	&#13;  promoted	&#13;  it.	&#13;  The	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  ran	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar,	&#13;  owned	&#13;  
the	&#13;  bar,	&#13;  would	&#13;  from	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  time	&#13;  be	&#13;  very	&#13;  arbitrary	&#13;  about	&#13;  rules	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  lay	&#13;  down,	&#13;  
or	&#13;  things	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  say	&#13;  or	&#13;  do.	&#13;  They’d	&#13;  get	&#13;  mad	&#13;  at	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  and	&#13;  bar	&#13;  them	&#13;  from	&#13;  
coming	&#13;  in.	&#13;  Back	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  early	&#13;  ‘60s	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  walkout	&#13;  [DJ	&#13;  addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  this	&#13;  
was	&#13;  in	&#13;  1962	&#13;  or	&#13;  1963].	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  experience	&#13;  that.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  handing	&#13;  out	&#13;  pink	&#13;  slips	&#13;  to	&#13;  
people.	&#13;  Everybody	&#13;  got	&#13;  really	&#13;  upset.	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  not	&#13;  everybody,	&#13;  but	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  got	&#13;  
really	&#13;  annoyed	&#13;  with	&#13;  them	&#13;  and	&#13;  upset	&#13;  with	&#13;  them	&#13;  and	&#13;  started	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  place	&#13;  called	&#13;  
the	&#13;  Chili	&#13;  Shop	&#13;  [DJ	&#13;  addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  a	&#13;  restaurant/bar	&#13;  on	&#13;  Walnut	&#13;  Avenue	&#13;  down	&#13;  
near	&#13;  the	&#13;  river].	&#13;  That	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  last	&#13;  very	&#13;  long.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  eventually	&#13;  all	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  filtered	&#13;  
back.	&#13;  But	&#13;  we	&#13;  just	&#13;  felt	&#13;  like	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  being	&#13;  unreasonable.	&#13;  Felt	&#13;  like	&#13;  they	&#13;  just	&#13;  
considered	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  clientele	&#13;  that	&#13;  had	&#13;  no	&#13;  other	&#13;  place	&#13;  to	&#13;  go.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  
taking	&#13;  us	&#13;  for	&#13;  granted.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  using	&#13;  us.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  captive	&#13;  audience,	&#13;  
so	&#13;  to	&#13;  speak.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  things.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  it	&#13;  might	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  
that	&#13;  time—or	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  another	&#13;  time	&#13;  when	&#13;  the	&#13;  Last	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  opened—when	&#13;  we	&#13;  
planned	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  certain	&#13;  cue,	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  just	&#13;  set	&#13;  their	&#13;  beer	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  table,	&#13;  got	&#13;  up,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  walked	&#13;  out.	&#13;  Left	&#13;  the	&#13;  beer	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  table,	&#13;  whatever,	&#13;  just	&#13;  got	&#13;  up,	&#13;  walked	&#13;  out.	&#13;  [DJ	&#13;  
addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  This	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  1973.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  organized	&#13;  walk	&#13;  out	&#13;  when	&#13;  gays	&#13;  went	&#13;  
en	&#13;  masse	&#13;  from	&#13;  Tradewinds	&#13;  down	&#13;  to	&#13;  The	&#13;  Straw,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  planned	&#13;  by	&#13;  GARV,	&#13;  which	&#13;  
had	&#13;  already	&#13;  folded	&#13;  by	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.]	&#13;  When	&#13;  the	&#13;  Last	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  opened	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  real	&#13;  small	&#13;  
place,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  jammed.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  packed	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  point	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  hardly	&#13;  get	&#13;  
in	&#13;  the	&#13;  door.	&#13;  Nobody	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Tradewinds.	&#13;  And	&#13;  their	&#13;  business	&#13;  just	&#13;  died	&#13;  at	&#13;  
that	&#13;  point.	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  was	&#13;  open	&#13;  for	&#13;  many	&#13;  years,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  other	&#13;  bars	&#13;  
at	&#13;  various	&#13;  times.	&#13;  But	&#13;  Tradewinds	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  operating,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  name	&#13;  changed	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  
of	&#13;  times,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  kept	&#13;  trying,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know.	&#13;  And	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  people	&#13;  went	&#13;  there.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
group	&#13;  that	&#13;  never	&#13;  really	&#13;  supported	&#13;  us	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything	&#13;  continued	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  there.	&#13;  But	&#13;  
pretty	&#13;  much	&#13;  their	&#13;  business	&#13;  was	&#13;  gone	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bar	&#13;  downstairs	&#13;  was	&#13;  
concerned.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
46:45	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  When	&#13;  you	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  that	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  support	&#13;  what	&#13;  
you	&#13;  were	&#13;  doing…	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  before	&#13;  that	&#13;  one	&#13;  characteristic	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  population	&#13;  was	&#13;  they	&#13;  
were	&#13;  from	&#13;  an	&#13;  older	&#13;  generation?	&#13;  Is	&#13;  that	&#13;  how	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  characterize	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  
said	&#13;  “the	&#13;  work	&#13;  that	&#13;  G.A.R.V.	&#13;  is	&#13;  doing,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  crazy.”	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  older	&#13;  folks?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
47:09	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  but	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  younger	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  support	&#13;  us.	&#13;  
They’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  “yeah,	&#13;  what	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  doing	&#13;  is	&#13;  great,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  cool,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  

4	&#13;  On	&#13;  November	&#13;  5,	&#13;  1971,	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  Valley	&#13;  placed	&#13;  a	&#13;  “zap”	&#13;  on	&#13;  Tradewinds.	&#13;  The	&#13;  

“zap”	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  type	&#13;  of	&#13;  organized	&#13;  protest	&#13;  first	&#13;  employed	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Activists	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  of	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  City.	&#13;  In	&#13;  
this	&#13;  case,	&#13;  GARV’s	&#13;  “zap”	&#13;  called	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  to	&#13;  boycott	&#13;  Tradewinds	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  week.	&#13;

never	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  raise	&#13;  money.	&#13;  They	&#13;  would	&#13;  never	&#13;  participate	&#13;  in	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  But	&#13;  that	&#13;  older	&#13;  
group	&#13;  simply	&#13;  did	&#13;  not…	&#13;  and,	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  the	&#13;  age	&#13;  groups	&#13;  were	&#13;  mixed	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
of	&#13;  ways.	&#13;  We	&#13;  all	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  We	&#13;  all	&#13;  knew	&#13;  each	&#13;  other.	&#13;  And	&#13;  this	&#13;  particular	&#13;  
group	&#13;  sat	&#13;  in	&#13;  one	&#13;  corner	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  and	&#13;  sit	&#13;  on	&#13;  those	&#13;  stools.	&#13;  You	&#13;  just	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  reserved	&#13;  for	&#13;  this	&#13;  one	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  
really	&#13;  nice	&#13;  guys.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean,	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  them	&#13;  all.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  liked,	&#13;  thought	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of,	&#13;  
you	&#13;  know.	&#13;  Later	&#13;  on,	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  terms,	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  lot	&#13;  to	&#13;  lose.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  that	&#13;  
some	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  didn’t,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  thought	&#13;  differently,	&#13;  and	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  stick	&#13;  
their	&#13;  neck	&#13;  out	&#13;  at	&#13;  all	&#13;  for	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
48:17	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  I	&#13;  noticed—I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  reading	&#13;  more	&#13;  recently	&#13;  the	&#13;  1972	&#13;  issues	&#13;  of	&#13;  The	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  
Gayzette,	&#13;  which,	&#13;  my	&#13;  understanding	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  guys	&#13;  published	&#13;  the	&#13;  Big	&#13;  Lick	&#13;  Gayzette	&#13;  
and	&#13;  renamed	&#13;  it,	&#13;  which	&#13;  could	&#13;  be	&#13;  another	&#13;  question	&#13;  about	&#13;  why.	&#13;  My	&#13;  understanding	&#13;  is	&#13;  
that	&#13;  the	&#13;  content	&#13;  seemed	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  focused	&#13;  on	&#13;  more	&#13;  statewide	&#13;  or	&#13;  national	&#13;  outreach	&#13;  after	&#13;  
the	&#13;  change.	&#13;  You	&#13;  can	&#13;  answer	&#13;  that,	&#13;  but…	&#13;  the	&#13;  question	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  of	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  1972,	&#13;  
which	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  presidential	&#13;  election	&#13;  year	&#13;  like	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  now,	&#13;  I	&#13;  noticed	&#13;  that	&#13;  your	&#13;  group	&#13;  did	&#13;  
get	&#13;  increasingly	&#13;  involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  Democratic	&#13;  Party	&#13;  electoral	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  I	&#13;  wonder	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  talk	&#13;  
more	&#13;  about	&#13;  that?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
49:01	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  About	&#13;  that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  several	&#13;  of	&#13;  us—me	&#13;  in	&#13;  particular—met	&#13;  some	&#13;  people—and	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  
exactly	&#13;  remember	&#13;  how	&#13;  or	&#13;  why	&#13;  or	&#13;  who—who	&#13;  were	&#13;  involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  politics,	&#13;  particularly	&#13;  
with	&#13;  a	&#13;  candidate	&#13;  named	&#13;  Roy	&#13;  White.	&#13;  Roy	&#13;  had	&#13;  run	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  nominated	&#13;  Democratic	&#13;  
candidate	&#13;  for	&#13;  Congress—1970,	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess—running	&#13;  against	&#13;  a	&#13;  well-­‐established	&#13;  
Republican	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  man.	&#13;  But	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  unbeatable,	&#13;  simply	&#13;  unbeatable.	&#13;  He	&#13;  
chose	&#13;  to	&#13;  run.	&#13;  Democrats	&#13;  said	&#13;  “sure,	&#13;  whatever,	&#13;  go	&#13;  ahead,”	&#13;  but	&#13;  [then]	&#13;  they	&#13;  turned	&#13;  
around	&#13;  and	&#13;  walked	&#13;  away.	&#13;  So	&#13;  the	&#13;  next	&#13;  time—’72,	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess—he	&#13;  decided	&#13;  to	&#13;  run	&#13;  again.	&#13;  
Well,	&#13;  they	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  nominate	&#13;  him.	&#13;  So	&#13;  they	&#13;  nominated	&#13;  someone	&#13;  else.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
then	&#13;  the	&#13;  Republicans	&#13;  nominated	&#13;  their	&#13;  candidate,	&#13;  and	&#13;  Roy	&#13;  decided	&#13;  to	&#13;  run	&#13;  as	&#13;  an	&#13;  
independent	&#13;  Democrat.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  supportive	&#13;  of	&#13;  what	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  doing,	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
group.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  working	&#13;  for	&#13;  him	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  hold	&#13;  him	&#13;  back,	&#13;  because	&#13;  
“Roy,	&#13;  no.	&#13;  You	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  say	&#13;  that.	&#13;  You	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  say	&#13;  that.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  he	&#13;  said,	&#13;  
“arrrrgh…”	&#13;  [expressing	&#13;  ambivalence	&#13;  or	&#13;  dissidence].	&#13;  A	&#13;  great	&#13;  guy.	&#13;  Really	&#13;  was.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  
kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  got	&#13;  involved,	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  did.	&#13;  These	&#13;  people	&#13;  were	&#13;  really	&#13;  doing	&#13;  things.	&#13;  They	&#13;  
were	&#13;  really	&#13;  going	&#13;  forward	&#13;  with	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  You	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  deal	&#13;  with	&#13;  “coming	&#13;  out”	&#13;  to	&#13;  
the	&#13;  public.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  pressure	&#13;  off	&#13;  of	&#13;  you.	&#13;  Yet	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  
working	&#13;  closely	&#13;  with	&#13;  knew.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  even	&#13;  discussed.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  talked	&#13;  about.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  
not	&#13;  a	&#13;  secret	&#13;  at	&#13;  all,	&#13;  including	&#13;  with	&#13;  Roy.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  more	&#13;  and	&#13;  more	&#13;  involved,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  
were	&#13;  welcomed	&#13;  wholeheartedly	&#13;  by	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  liberal	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Democratic	&#13;  Party	&#13;  at	&#13;  
that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  just	&#13;  snowballed.	&#13;  And,	&#13;  as	&#13;  more	&#13;  and	&#13;  more	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  got	&#13;  involved	&#13;  
with	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  felt	&#13;  like	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  accomplish	&#13;  more.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  started	&#13;  preaching—I	&#13;  and	&#13;  
several	&#13;  others—really	&#13;  started	&#13;  preaching	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community,	&#13;  saying	&#13;  “Look.	&#13;  
Roanoke	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  Democratic	&#13;  city.	&#13;  Council	&#13;  will	&#13;  change	&#13;  over	&#13;  five	&#13;  hundred	&#13;  votes,	&#13;  or	&#13;  two	&#13;  
hundred	&#13;  votes	&#13;  in	&#13;  some	&#13;  cases.	&#13;  Can’t	&#13;  we	&#13;  bring	&#13;  two	&#13;  hundred	&#13;  people	&#13;  to	&#13;  bear	&#13;  [on]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
18	&#13;  

�something	&#13;  like	&#13;  this?	&#13;  Can’t	&#13;  we	&#13;  get	&#13;  involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  these	&#13;  mass	&#13;  meetings?”	&#13;  Sometimes	&#13;  a	&#13;  
mass	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  would	&#13;  take	&#13;  place	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  precinct.	&#13;  10	&#13;  people	&#13;  show	&#13;  up.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Elect	&#13;  a	&#13;  
precinct	&#13;  captain,	&#13;  [then	&#13;  s/he]	&#13;  goes	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  city	&#13;  Democratic	&#13;  committee.	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  precinct	&#13;  
captain	&#13;  in	&#13;  Old	&#13;  Southwest	&#13;  just	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  drag	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  faggots	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  their	&#13;  
houses.	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Kid,	&#13;  come	&#13;  in	&#13;  here,	&#13;  come	&#13;  in	&#13;  here.	&#13;  Come	&#13;  on.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  sometimes	&#13;  they	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  understand	&#13;  why,	&#13;  but	&#13;  we’d	&#13;  get	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  point	&#13;  where	&#13;  we’d	&#13;  say	&#13;  “You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  do	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  
favor.	&#13;  Do	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  favor.	&#13;  Please	&#13;  show	&#13;  up	&#13;  for	&#13;  this	&#13;  two	&#13;  hours,”	&#13;  or	&#13;  something	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  sort.	&#13;  
We	&#13;  found	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  working	&#13;  with,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  friends	&#13;  
that	&#13;  we	&#13;  started	&#13;  making,	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  just	&#13;  became	&#13;  something	&#13;  exciting,	&#13;  and	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  
we	&#13;  really	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  involved	&#13;  with.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  gradually,	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  organization	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  
took	&#13;  a	&#13;  backseat,	&#13;  and	&#13;  eventually	&#13;  just	&#13;  folded	&#13;  up,	&#13;  and	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  just	&#13;  kept	&#13;  going	&#13;  into	&#13;  
the	&#13;  Democratic	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  and	&#13;  still	&#13;  called	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  to	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  bring	&#13;  people	&#13;  in.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  one	&#13;  citywide	&#13;  mass	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  was	&#13;  held	&#13;  in	&#13;  council	&#13;  chambers,	&#13;  and	&#13;  me	&#13;  
and	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine—several	&#13;  of	&#13;  us,	&#13;  but	&#13;  one	&#13;  particular	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine—worked	&#13;  our	&#13;  
butts	&#13;  off	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  people	&#13;  out.	&#13;  The	&#13;  day	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  mass	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  attorney	&#13;  there	&#13;

GR:	&#13;  So,	&#13;  it	&#13;  sounded	&#13;  like	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  saying	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Alliance’s	&#13;  involvement	&#13;  in	&#13;  
electoral	&#13;  politics	&#13;  was	&#13;  divisive	&#13;  within	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  some	&#13;  way?	&#13;  That	&#13;  some	&#13;  
went	&#13;  headfirst	&#13;  into	&#13;  Democratic	&#13;  Party	&#13;  issues	&#13;  and	&#13;  others	&#13;  said	&#13;  “that’s	&#13;  not…”?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:27	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  No.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  that	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  the	&#13;  leaders,	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  the	&#13;  ones	&#13;  really	&#13;  
trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  organize	&#13;  things,	&#13;  and	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  push	&#13;  things,	&#13;  we	&#13;  saw	&#13;  opportunity	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  
direction.	&#13;  We	&#13;  saw	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  actually	&#13;  influence	&#13;  things	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  direction.	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  
started	&#13;  going	&#13;  that	&#13;  way.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  eventually	&#13;  we	&#13;  stopped	&#13;  producing	&#13;  the	&#13;  newsletter.	&#13;  
[DJ	&#13;  addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  GARV	&#13;  ran	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  steam	&#13;  producing	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspaper,	&#13;  and	&#13;  some	&#13;

paper.]	&#13;  We	&#13;  stopped	&#13;  having	&#13;  the	&#13;  meetings.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  we	&#13;  just	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  going	&#13;  anywhere.	&#13;  
We	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  feel	&#13;  like	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  getting	&#13;  anywhere.	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  working	&#13;  
with,	&#13;  the	&#13;  coalition,	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time,	&#13;  of	&#13;  liberals,	&#13;  union	&#13;  people—who	&#13;  were	&#13;  never	&#13;  happy	&#13;  
with	&#13;  us,	&#13;  but	&#13;  accepted	&#13;  us,	&#13;  because	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  vote,	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  swallowed	&#13;  real	&#13;  hard	&#13;  and	&#13;

community,	&#13;  as	&#13;  well.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  coalition	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  would	&#13;  vote	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  
similar	&#13;  fashion.	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  local	&#13;  party	&#13;  was	&#13;  controlled	&#13;  by	&#13;  an	&#13;  old	&#13;  guard	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  
kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  group.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Democratic	&#13;  Party	&#13;  was	&#13;  still	&#13;  fairly	&#13;  conservative.	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  here	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
very	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  point.	&#13;  Then	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  these	&#13;  factions	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  
trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  together	&#13;  and	&#13;  work	&#13;  together,	&#13;  which	&#13;  would	&#13;  balance	&#13;  out.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
give	&#13;  and	&#13;  take	&#13;  who	&#13;  could	&#13;  control,	&#13;  or	&#13;  who	&#13;  could	&#13;  bring	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  votes	&#13;  together,	&#13;  which	&#13;  
was	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  reasons	&#13;  that	&#13;  Roy	&#13;  White	&#13;  challenged	&#13;  this	&#13;  establishment	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  extent	&#13;  
that	&#13;  he	&#13;  did.	&#13;  They	&#13;  never	&#13;  supported	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Then,	&#13;  after	&#13;  that	&#13;  election—of	&#13;  course	&#13;  he	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  
win.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Republican	&#13;  won,	&#13;  and	&#13;  turned	&#13;  out	&#13;  a	&#13;  Congressman	&#13;  who	&#13;  served	&#13;  for	&#13;  ten	&#13;  or	&#13;  
fifteen	&#13;  years,	&#13;  and	&#13;  actually	&#13;  turned	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  good	&#13;  Congressman.	&#13;  A	&#13;  little	&#13;  too	&#13;  
conservative	&#13;  for	&#13;  my	&#13;  tastes,	&#13;  but	&#13;  he	&#13;  proceeded	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  some	&#13;  things	&#13;  during	&#13;  the	&#13;  Nixon	&#13;  
mess,	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot.	&#13;  He	&#13;  stood	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  some	&#13;  things,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  record.	&#13;  All	&#13;  recorded,	&#13;  
historical	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  We	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  working	&#13;  for	&#13;  one	&#13;  candidate	&#13;  after	&#13;  another,	&#13;  and	&#13;  those	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  
who	&#13;  really	&#13;  got	&#13;  into	&#13;  working	&#13;  on	&#13;  political	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything	&#13;  continued	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  
Work	&#13;  with	&#13;  it.	&#13;  The	&#13;  rest	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  get	&#13;  involved.	&#13;  We	&#13;  would	&#13;  still	&#13;  try	&#13;  
to	&#13;  get	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  register	&#13;  to	&#13;  vote.	&#13;  Try	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  across	&#13;  to	&#13;  them	&#13;  how	&#13;  important	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  
vote.	&#13;  How	&#13;  much	&#13;  weight	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  votes	&#13;  would	&#13;  carry	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  city	&#13;  like	&#13;  this	&#13;  with	&#13;  changing	&#13;  
council.	&#13;  How,	&#13;  if	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  known	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  backing	&#13;  a	&#13;  particular	&#13;  candidate,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  they	&#13;  
won,	&#13;  that	&#13;  gave	&#13;  us	&#13;  a	&#13;  voice.	&#13;  That	&#13;  gave	&#13;  us	&#13;  the	&#13;  input.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  politics	&#13;  
today.	&#13;  Whoever	&#13;  pays	&#13;  the	&#13;  bills,	&#13;  gets	&#13;  the	&#13;  voice.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  if	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  show	&#13;  up	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  
mass	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  like	&#13;  we	&#13;  did	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  one	&#13;  at	&#13;  City	&#13;  Council	&#13;  chambers—people	&#13;  streamed	&#13;  in,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  this	&#13;  one	&#13;  attorney	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine	&#13;  was	&#13;  there.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  still	&#13;  see	&#13;  
the	&#13;  look	&#13;  on	&#13;  his	&#13;  face.	&#13;  We	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  make	&#13;  it.	&#13;  This	&#13;  was	&#13;  citywide.	&#13;  
We	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  make	&#13;  it.	&#13;  And	&#13;  our	&#13;  people	&#13;  started	&#13;  streaming	&#13;  in.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
the	&#13;  look	&#13;  on	&#13;  his	&#13;  face	&#13;  changed	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  scowl	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  sudden	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  grin,	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  
Cheshire	&#13;  cat	&#13;  grin,	&#13;  cause	&#13;  he	&#13;  knew.	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  about	&#13;  forty	&#13;  people	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  two	&#13;  hundred	&#13;  at	&#13;  
that	&#13;  meeting.	&#13;  And	&#13;  when	&#13;  votes	&#13;  came	&#13;  along,	&#13;  they	&#13;  just	&#13;  looked	&#13;  over	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  
of	&#13;  mine	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  organizing	&#13;  this,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  just	&#13;  said	&#13;  [nods	&#13;  his	&#13;  head]	&#13;  and	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  
all	&#13;  vote,	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  bloc.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  changed	&#13;  the	&#13;  outcome	&#13;  of	&#13;  everything	&#13;  that	&#13;  happened	&#13;  that	&#13;  day.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:30	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  It	&#13;  sounds	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  liberal	&#13;  coalition,	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  groups,	&#13;  were	&#13;  also	&#13;  very	&#13;  aware	&#13;  that	&#13;  
you	&#13;  guys	&#13;  were	&#13;  gays	&#13;  and	&#13;  lesbians	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  voting	&#13;  bloc.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  time	&#13;  
that	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  political	&#13;  voice,	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:48	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  We	&#13;  never	&#13;  openly	&#13;  said	&#13;  that.	&#13;  We	&#13;  never	&#13;  brought	&#13;  up	&#13;  things.	&#13;  We	&#13;  never	&#13;  talked	&#13;  about	&#13;  
issues	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  knew.	&#13;  They	&#13;  just	&#13;  knew.	&#13;  A	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  
been	&#13;  very	&#13;  embarrassed	&#13;  about	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  They	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  just	&#13;  real	&#13;  
uncomfortable,	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  them…	&#13;  not	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  liberals…	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember,	&#13;  one	&#13;  man,	&#13;  I	&#13;  
wish	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  remember	&#13;  his	&#13;  name,	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  liberal	&#13;  coalition.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  
maybe	&#13;  sixty	&#13;  or	&#13;  so	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  Standing	&#13;  near	&#13;  him	&#13;  [at]	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  the	&#13;  ’72	&#13;  convention	&#13;  
which	&#13;  was	&#13;  held	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  [the]	&#13;  state	&#13;  convention,	&#13;  might	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  that,	&#13;  
somewhere,	&#13;  sometime,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  looking	&#13;  over	&#13;  at	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  talking	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  saying	&#13;  

	&#13;  
20	&#13;  

�something	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  glad	&#13;  y’all	&#13;  are	&#13;  here.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  glad	&#13;  y’all	&#13;  are	&#13;  here.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  
really	&#13;  pleased	&#13;  me.	&#13;  It	&#13;  really	&#13;  pleased	&#13;  me.	&#13;  Made	&#13;  me	&#13;  feel	&#13;  good.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:50	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  survive	&#13;  the	&#13;  election?	&#13;  It	&#13;  just	&#13;  dissolved?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:56	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  At	&#13;  that	&#13;  point	&#13;  it	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  well	&#13;  just	&#13;  folded	&#13;  up.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  dissipated	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  air.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:08	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Before	&#13;  I	&#13;  ask	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  G.A.R.V.	&#13;  dissolved,	&#13;  what	&#13;  
about	&#13;  issues?	&#13;  You	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  saying	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  have	&#13;  political	&#13;  issues	&#13;  that	&#13;  
you	&#13;  brought	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  table	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  Democratic	&#13;  liberal	&#13;  coalition,	&#13;  but	&#13;  did	&#13;  your	&#13;  group—
did	&#13;  you	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  and	&#13;  think	&#13;  of	&#13;  ways,	&#13;  or	&#13;  engage	&#13;  in	&#13;  ways,	&#13;  to	&#13;  take	&#13;  on	&#13;  issues	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  
police	&#13;  harassment	&#13;  of	&#13;  gays	&#13;  in	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park?	&#13;  Were	&#13;  the	&#13;  police	&#13;  cracking	&#13;  down	&#13;  on	&#13;  
cruising	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time?	&#13;  Or,	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  of	&#13;  political	&#13;  issues,	&#13;  like	&#13;  decriminalizing	&#13;  the	&#13;  sodomy	&#13;  
laws.	&#13;  Were	&#13;  those	&#13;  kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  plate?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:55	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  but	&#13;  we	&#13;  never	&#13;  really—something	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  recently	&#13;  sorting	&#13;  all	&#13;  this	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  I	&#13;  
found	&#13;  a	&#13;  questionnaire	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  sent	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  state	&#13;  legislators,	&#13;  and	&#13;  their	&#13;  responses.	&#13;  We	&#13;  
set	&#13;  it	&#13;  up	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  responses	&#13;  could	&#13;  be	&#13;  anonymous,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  quite	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  back.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  just	&#13;  looking	&#13;  through	&#13;  them,	&#13;  and	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  where	&#13;  it	&#13;  says	&#13;  “No.	&#13;  No.	&#13;  No.	&#13;  No.	&#13;  No.	&#13;  
No,”	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  down	&#13;  the	&#13;  line.	&#13;  And	&#13;  others	&#13;  had	&#13;  fairly	&#13;  thoughtful	&#13;  sorts	&#13;  of	&#13;  responses	&#13;  to	&#13;  
everything.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  also	&#13;  found	&#13;  a	&#13;  letter	&#13;  thanking	&#13;  a	&#13;  local	&#13;  state	&#13;  senator	&#13;  for	&#13;  agreeing	&#13;  to	&#13;  
meet	&#13;  with	&#13;  us,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  said	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  bringing	&#13;  four	&#13;  people	&#13;  with	&#13;  us,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  
remember—I	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  going,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  who	&#13;  else	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  
been	&#13;  going.	&#13;  Then	&#13;  he	&#13;  cancelled	&#13;  it	&#13;  right	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  last	&#13;  minute.	&#13;  And	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  meet	&#13;  with	&#13;  us.	&#13;  He	&#13;  
was	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  old	&#13;  guard	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  political	&#13;  Democrats,	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  other	&#13;  
things	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  against	&#13;  him,	&#13;  but	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  more	&#13;  personal	&#13;  nature	&#13;  with	&#13;  other	&#13;  people,	&#13;  but	&#13;  
that	&#13;  was	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  we	&#13;  tried	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  with	&#13;  that.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
Roanoke	&#13;  was	&#13;  different	&#13;  than	&#13;  Richmond	&#13;  or	&#13;  Norfolk.	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  was	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  
laidback,	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  “live	&#13;  and	&#13;  let	&#13;  live.”	&#13;  The	&#13;  kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Richmond	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  horrendous.	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  firsthand	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  Norfolk.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  down	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  bar	&#13;  raid	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  there.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just…	&#13;  oh	&#13;  God…	&#13;  I	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  get	&#13;  arrested	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  was…	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  another	&#13;  conversation	&#13;  that	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  be	&#13;  
glad	&#13;  to	&#13;  cover,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  Jim	&#13;  Sears	&#13;  wrote	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  his	&#13;  books—of	&#13;  that	&#13;  
particular	&#13;  raid.	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspapers	&#13;  in	&#13;  other	&#13;  parts	&#13;  of	&#13;  town,	&#13;  other	&#13;  parts	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  state,	&#13;  
were	&#13;  much,	&#13;  much	&#13;  less	&#13;  friendly	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community.	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspaper	&#13;  has	&#13;  
always	&#13;  been	&#13;  fair.	&#13;  At	&#13;  times	&#13;  it	&#13;  appeared	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  actually	&#13;  leaning	&#13;  [towards]	&#13;  being	&#13;  
supportive,	&#13;  because	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  when	&#13;  those	&#13;  hateful	&#13;  letters	&#13;  would	&#13;  
appear,	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  be	&#13;  balanced	&#13;  off	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  one,	&#13;  a	&#13;  supportive	&#13;  one.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  
days	&#13;  later,	&#13;  a	&#13;  week	&#13;  later,	&#13;  or	&#13;  something	&#13;  like	&#13;  that,	&#13;  there’d	&#13;  be	&#13;  this	&#13;  article,	&#13;  based	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  
interview	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  couple.	&#13;  Big	&#13;  article.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  fairly	&#13;  positive.	&#13;  We	&#13;  always	&#13;

�wondered,	&#13;  “who	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  paper	&#13;  is	&#13;  gay?	&#13;  Where	&#13;  is	&#13;  this	&#13;  coming	&#13;  from?”	&#13;  Because	&#13;  this	&#13;  was	&#13;  
the	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  attitude…	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
So,	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  police	&#13;  entrapment	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  never	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  extent	&#13;  
that	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  other	&#13;  places.	&#13;  Yes,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was.	&#13;  Yes,	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  police	&#13;  plainclothesmen.	&#13;  It	&#13;  
would	&#13;  happen	&#13;  from	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  time.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  a	&#13;  continuous	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  It	&#13;  would	&#13;  happen,	&#13;  then	&#13;  
for	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  or	&#13;  two	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  nothing,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  happen,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  
long	&#13;  time	&#13;  there	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  nothing.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  old	&#13;  rumor—urban	&#13;  legend	&#13;  maybe,	&#13;  
maybe	&#13;  truth—that	&#13;  the	&#13;  police	&#13;  recorded	&#13;  license	&#13;  plates	&#13;  in	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  and	&#13;  kept	&#13;  a	&#13;  
list.	&#13;  This	&#13;  happened	&#13;  in	&#13;  other	&#13;  places.	&#13;  It	&#13;  happened	&#13;  in	&#13;  D.C.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  been	&#13;  documented	&#13;  as	&#13;  
happening	&#13;  in	&#13;  other	&#13;  places.	&#13;  And	&#13;  Hoover’s	&#13;  people,	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot,	&#13;  did	&#13;  this	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  
Some	&#13;  things	&#13;  happened	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  at	&#13;  some	&#13;  point,	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  years	&#13;  later,	&#13;  that	&#13;  led	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  believe	&#13;  
maybe	&#13;  this	&#13;  actually	&#13;  was	&#13;  true.	&#13;  And	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  knew	&#13;  who	&#13;  worked	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  police	&#13;  
department,	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  clerical	&#13;  capacity	&#13;  or	&#13;  something,	&#13;  told	&#13;  us	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  had	&#13;  seen	&#13;  it.	&#13;  She	&#13;  
wasn’t	&#13;  all	&#13;  that	&#13;  reliable,	&#13;  so	&#13;  [we]	&#13;  never	&#13;  put	&#13;  any	&#13;  faith	&#13;  in	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  whether	&#13;  
that	&#13;  was	&#13;  ever	&#13;  the	&#13;  case.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  not	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  any	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  bars	&#13;  ever	&#13;  being	&#13;  hassled	&#13;  or	&#13;  
bothered	&#13;  or	&#13;  raided	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that,	&#13;  even	&#13;  the	&#13;  Tradewinds	&#13;  way	&#13;  back	&#13;  when.	&#13;  
Police	&#13;  came	&#13;  in	&#13;  from	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  time,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  over	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  management,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  them.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  looking	&#13;  for	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  in	&#13;  particular,	&#13;  not	&#13;  necessarily	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
person,	&#13;  but	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  in	&#13;  particular	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  find.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  just	&#13;  wanted…	&#13;  
maybe	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  come	&#13;  in	&#13;  there.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  it,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  go.	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  remember	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  
they	&#13;  did	&#13;  hassle	&#13;  some	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  parking	&#13;  lot	&#13;  and	&#13;  made	&#13;  some	&#13;  arrests,	&#13;  out	&#13;  back.	&#13;  But	&#13;  
that’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  remember.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12:14	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Can	&#13;  you	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  really	&#13;  briefly	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  then.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  
almost	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  imagine,	&#13;  right?	&#13;  Cause	&#13;  the	&#13;  park	&#13;  is	&#13;  so	&#13;  built	&#13;  up	&#13;  today	&#13;  and	&#13;  transformed.	&#13;  
There’s	&#13;  probably	&#13;  ten	&#13;  trees	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  park.	&#13;  My	&#13;  understanding	&#13;  is	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  pond,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  environment.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  can	&#13;  you	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  recreate	&#13;  it?	&#13;  And	&#13;  
where	&#13;  did	&#13;  the	&#13;  gays	&#13;  meet	&#13;  each	&#13;  other?	&#13;  Where	&#13;  did	&#13;  they	&#13;  hang	&#13;  out?	&#13;  Besides	&#13;  the	&#13;  
Greyhound	&#13;  bathroom?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12:43	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  [I’ll]	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you	&#13;  about	&#13;  that…	&#13;  [mutual	&#13;  laughter].	&#13;  Bullitt	&#13;  Avenue	&#13;  went	&#13;  from	&#13;  Jefferson	&#13;  
Street	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  through	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  street	&#13;  below.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  cut	&#13;  off	&#13;  and	&#13;  closed,	&#13;  like	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  
now.	&#13;  It	&#13;  went	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  through,	&#13;  so	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  street	&#13;  that	&#13;  went	&#13;  across,	&#13;  went	&#13;  up	&#13;  the	&#13;  
hill	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  Elm	&#13;  Avenue,	&#13;  and	&#13;  across	&#13;  to—in	&#13;  Southeast—that	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  been…	&#13;  the	&#13;  
name	&#13;  will	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  [DJ	&#13;  addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  Tazewell	&#13;  Avenue].	&#13;  But	&#13;  anyway,	&#13;  the	&#13;  
extension	&#13;  of	&#13;  Franklin	&#13;  Road.	&#13;  People	&#13;  would	&#13;  drive	&#13;  through,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  just	&#13;  drive	&#13;  through,	&#13;  
go	&#13;  around	&#13;  one	&#13;  block,	&#13;  come	&#13;  back.	&#13;  Go	&#13;  around	&#13;  one	&#13;  block,	&#13;  come	&#13;  back.	&#13;  Go	&#13;  around	&#13;  one	&#13;  
block,	&#13;  come	&#13;  back.	&#13;  Sometimes	&#13;  the	&#13;  parking	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  street,	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  side	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  street,	&#13;  was	&#13;  
head-­‐in	&#13;  with	&#13;  meters.	&#13;  So	&#13;  in	&#13;  those	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  park,	&#13;  stop.	&#13;  People	&#13;  would	&#13;  stand	&#13;  around	&#13;  in	&#13;  
small	&#13;  groups.	&#13;  You	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  hang	&#13;  around	&#13;  in	&#13;  large	&#13;  groups,	&#13;  but	&#13;  small	&#13;  groups:	&#13;  two,	&#13;  three,	&#13;  
four,	&#13;  five	&#13;  people.	&#13;  Talk.	&#13;  Commenting	&#13;  about	&#13;  somebody,	&#13;  “oh,	&#13;  well,	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  been	&#13;  through	&#13;  
five	&#13;  times	&#13;  already.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  that	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  comment	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  shortest	&#13;  
distance	&#13;  between	&#13;  any	&#13;  two	&#13;  places	&#13;  on	&#13;  Earth	&#13;  was	&#13;  through	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  
	&#13;  
22	&#13;  

�out	&#13;  somewhere,	&#13;  and	&#13;  before	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  home	&#13;  you	&#13;  drove	&#13;  through	&#13;  the	&#13;  park,	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  if	&#13;  any	&#13;  
friends	&#13;  were	&#13;  there,	&#13;  and	&#13;  quite	&#13;  often	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  see	&#13;  people	&#13;  you	&#13;  knew.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
people	&#13;  there	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  friends.	&#13;  Some—the	&#13;  ones	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  left—are	&#13;  still	&#13;  friends.	&#13;  There	&#13;  
was	&#13;  the	&#13;  bus	&#13;  station	&#13;  on	&#13;  one	&#13;  corner;	&#13;  the	&#13;  library	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  corner.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  in	&#13;  1960	&#13;  
they	&#13;  built	&#13;  the	&#13;  Downtowner	&#13;  Motel	&#13;  there	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  corner.	&#13;  The	&#13;  pond	&#13;  was	&#13;  still	&#13;  
there.	&#13;  People	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  go	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  park	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  trees	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot.	&#13;  But	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
Bullitt	&#13;  Avenue.	&#13;  Bullitt	&#13;  Avenue.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  popular.	&#13;  People	&#13;  would	&#13;  come	&#13;  in	&#13;  from	&#13;  
out	&#13;  of	&#13;  town,	&#13;  stay	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  motel,	&#13;  hang	&#13;  out	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  balcony.	&#13;  You	&#13;  could	&#13;  stand	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  
balcony	&#13;  to	&#13;  watch	&#13;  cars	&#13;  go	&#13;  by,	&#13;  or	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  people,	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot.	&#13;  And	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  from	&#13;  
both…	&#13;  no	&#13;  matter	&#13;  what	&#13;  economic	&#13;  level	&#13;  you	&#13;  were,	&#13;  or	&#13;  any	&#13;  background	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  else,	&#13;  
you	&#13;  went	&#13;  through	&#13;  the	&#13;  park.	&#13;  The	&#13;  drags	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  hang	&#13;  out	&#13;  [there].	&#13;  They	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  there	&#13;  
in	&#13;  drag.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  crossing	&#13;  the	&#13;  line.	&#13;  Unless	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  Halloween.	&#13;  You	&#13;  could	&#13;  get	&#13;  away	&#13;  
with	&#13;  it	&#13;  on	&#13;  Halloween.	&#13;  But	&#13;  otherwise	&#13;  they	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  street.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  like,	&#13;  
no,	&#13;  you	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  You	&#13;  were	&#13;  pushing	&#13;  the	&#13;  envelope	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
15:45	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  This	&#13;  was	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  after	&#13;  dark?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
15:47	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
15:49	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  And	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  feel	&#13;  like	&#13;  straight	&#13;  people	&#13;  basically	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  hang	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  park	&#13;  at	&#13;  
night?	&#13;  Or	&#13;  did	&#13;  they	&#13;  also?	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  space?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
15:58:	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  get	&#13;  guys	&#13;  who	&#13;  would	&#13;  drive	&#13;  through	&#13;  and	&#13;  yell	&#13;  things	&#13;  and	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  Punks.	&#13;  
But,	&#13;  usually	&#13;  other	&#13;  than	&#13;  some	&#13;  verbal	&#13;  hassle,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  little.	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  find	&#13;  out	&#13;  that,	&#13;  
up	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  upper	&#13;  side	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  park,	&#13;  before	&#13;  they	&#13;  widened…	&#13;  before	&#13;  Community	&#13;  Hospital	&#13;  
was	&#13;  built,	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  all	&#13;  houses.	&#13;  That	&#13;  whole	&#13;  hillside	&#13;  was	&#13;  houses.	&#13;  And	&#13;  Elm	&#13;  Avenue	&#13;  was	&#13;  
wider,	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  parking	&#13;  all	&#13;  along	&#13;  that	&#13;  upper	&#13;  side,	&#13;  and	&#13;  people	&#13;  would	&#13;  actually	&#13;  
park	&#13;  up	&#13;  there,	&#13;  as	&#13;  well.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  know	&#13;  about	&#13;  that	&#13;  until	&#13;  recently,	&#13;  talking	&#13;  to	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  
my	&#13;  friends	&#13;  from	&#13;  way	&#13;  back	&#13;  then.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  at	&#13;  dinner	&#13;  in	&#13;  conversation	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  
telling	&#13;  stories	&#13;  and	&#13;  tales	&#13;  about	&#13;  that.	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  people	&#13;  would	&#13;  drive	&#13;  around,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  park,	&#13;  
drive	&#13;  around,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  go	&#13;  off	&#13;  somewhere,	&#13;  come	&#13;  back,	&#13;  drive	&#13;  around,	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot.	&#13;

GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  the	&#13;  narrative	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  mind	&#13;  from	&#13;  ’72	&#13;  when	&#13;  G.A.R.V.	&#13;  dissolves	&#13;  until	&#13;  ’77	&#13;  
when	&#13;  FAIR	&#13;  [the	&#13;  Free	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  of	&#13;  Individual	&#13;  Rights]	&#13;  is	&#13;  formed,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  know	&#13;  
much	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  period,	&#13;  except,	&#13;  interestingly,	&#13;  the	&#13;  Last	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  opens.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Horoscope	&#13;  
opens.	&#13;  In	&#13;  the	&#13;  late	&#13;  ‘70s	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  place	&#13;  Murphy’s.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  is	&#13;  ’78.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  this	&#13;  
efflorescence	&#13;  of	&#13;  gay	&#13;  spaces.	&#13;  So	&#13;  what	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  election	&#13;  in	&#13;  ’72	&#13;  and	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  
G.A.R.V.	&#13;  falls	&#13;  apart?	&#13;  How	&#13;  can	&#13;  you	&#13;  help	&#13;  me	&#13;  understand	&#13;  that	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  period	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  mid-­‐
‘70s	&#13;  when	&#13;  these	&#13;  places	&#13;  are	&#13;  opening?	&#13;  What’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  like	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time?	&#13;  
	&#13;

�DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  still	&#13;  remember	&#13;  the	&#13;  night	&#13;  the	&#13;  Last	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  opened,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  packed.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  
jam-­‐packed	&#13;  with	&#13;  people.	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  went	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Tradewinds.	&#13;  Ever.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  did;	&#13;  
they’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  from	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  But	&#13;  they	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  stay	&#13;  there,	&#13;  
because	&#13;  there	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  much	&#13;  of	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  there,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  get	&#13;  lucky	&#13;  there.	&#13;  
The	&#13;  Last	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  was	&#13;  gay-­‐owned	&#13;  and	&#13;  operated,	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  time	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  business.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  
it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  friendly,	&#13;  receptive	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  place.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  small.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  sterile,	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  
sense.	&#13;  A	&#13;  little	&#13;  dark.	&#13;  But	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  interesting	&#13;  sorts	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  happened	&#13;  there.	&#13;  Kind	&#13;  
of	&#13;  fun	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  some	&#13;  pinball	&#13;  machines,	&#13;  juke	&#13;  box,	&#13;  and	&#13;  for	&#13;  as	&#13;  long	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  
can	&#13;  remember	&#13;  Tammy	&#13;  Wynette’s	&#13;  “Stand	&#13;  By	&#13;  Your	&#13;  Man”	&#13;  was	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  juke	&#13;  box.	&#13;  You	&#13;  
know,	&#13;  you	&#13;  knew	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  ran	&#13;  the	&#13;  place,	&#13;  who	&#13;  worked	&#13;  there,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  
always	&#13;  friendly.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  much	&#13;  a	&#13;  home	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  You	&#13;  went	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  knew	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
people,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  comfortable,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  just	&#13;  go	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  relax.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
The	&#13;  Horoscope	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  dance	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  very	&#13;  far	&#13;  away,	&#13;  so	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  go	&#13;  
from	&#13;  one	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  other,	&#13;  without	&#13;  any	&#13;  distance	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  crowded.	&#13;  The	&#13;  music	&#13;  was	&#13;  
loud.	&#13;  Disco	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  people	&#13;  come	&#13;  along	&#13;  today,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  say	&#13;  “you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  
you	&#13;  missed	&#13;  disco.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  so	&#13;  sad.	&#13;  You	&#13;  missed	&#13;  it.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  so	&#13;  sad.”	&#13;  It	&#13;  truly	&#13;  is,	&#13;  because	&#13;  
it	&#13;  epitomized	&#13;  everything	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  within	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  
anthem,	&#13;  sung	&#13;  by	&#13;  Donna	&#13;  Summer.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  like	&#13;  our	&#13;  coming	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  world,	&#13;  
coming	&#13;  into	&#13;  our	&#13;  own.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  pumped	&#13;  up	&#13;  by	&#13;  that	&#13;  music.	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  Horoscope	&#13;  was	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
went	&#13;  there	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  never	&#13;  into	&#13;  dancing	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  I	&#13;  liked	&#13;  listening	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  music.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  friends	&#13;  were	&#13;  there.	&#13;  They	&#13;  went	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  
the	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while,	&#13;  then	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  there,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  go	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot.	&#13;  My	&#13;  
understanding	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  opened	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  straight	&#13;  place	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  
lunch	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  go.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  said	&#13;  “hey,	&#13;  these	&#13;  people	&#13;  
have	&#13;  got	&#13;  money,	&#13;  and	&#13;  these	&#13;  people	&#13;  will	&#13;  spend	&#13;  it.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  changed	&#13;  it,	&#13;  and	&#13;  bang,	&#13;  it	&#13;  
just	&#13;  hit.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
Murphy’s…	&#13;  [laughter]…	&#13;  oh	&#13;  God.	&#13;  Murphy’s.	&#13;  Wasn’t	&#13;  open	&#13;  very	&#13;  long.	&#13;  I	&#13;  recently	&#13;  found	&#13;  
my	&#13;  membership	&#13;  card	&#13;  for	&#13;  Murphy’s.	&#13;  I	&#13;  keep	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  I	&#13;  keep	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  my	&#13;  
membership	&#13;  card	&#13;  for	&#13;  Murphy’s.	&#13;  Murphy’s	&#13;  Super	&#13;  Disco.	&#13;  The	&#13;  story	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  opened	&#13;  as	&#13;  
a	&#13;  bar	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  restaurant.	&#13;  Was	&#13;  not	&#13;  doing	&#13;  well.	&#13;  And	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  told	&#13;  the	&#13;  family	&#13;  that	&#13;  
opened	&#13;  it,	&#13;  “hey,	&#13;  turn	&#13;  it	&#13;  into	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bar,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you’ll	&#13;  get	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  business.”	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  they	&#13;  did.	&#13;  
They	&#13;  indeed	&#13;  did.	&#13;  But	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  ready	&#13;  for	&#13;  it.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  ready	&#13;  for	&#13;  it.	&#13;  They	&#13;  
were	&#13;  completely	&#13;  plucked	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  site	&#13;  of	&#13;  two	&#13;  men	&#13;  dancing.	&#13;  Or	&#13;  two	&#13;  men	&#13;  holding	&#13;  hands.	&#13;  
Or	&#13;  two	&#13;  men	&#13;  [who]	&#13;  even	&#13;  might	&#13;  kiss.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  completely	&#13;  thrown.	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  
number	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  came	&#13;  there,	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything,	&#13;  they	&#13;  just	&#13;  simply	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  handle	&#13;  
it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  some.	&#13;  A	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine	&#13;  is	&#13;  writing	&#13;  a	&#13;  thing	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  But	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  last	&#13;  very	&#13;  
long,	&#13;  because	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  deal	&#13;  with	&#13;  it,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  run	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar	&#13;  and	&#13;  
whatnot.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  last	&#13;  very	&#13;  long.	&#13;  All	&#13;  this	&#13;  time	&#13;  the	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  was	&#13;  still	&#13;  going	&#13;  strong.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  sure	&#13;  when	&#13;  Backstreet…	&#13;  right	&#13;  now	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  recall	&#13;  when	&#13;  Backstreet	&#13;  opened.	&#13;  But	&#13;  
it’s	&#13;  right	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  period	&#13;  when	&#13;  it	&#13;  did.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  different	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  place.	&#13;  
Standard	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  Bar	&#13;  on	&#13;  one	&#13;  side;	&#13;  booths	&#13;  down	&#13;  the	&#13;  other.	&#13;  Pool	&#13;  table	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  back.	&#13;  Levi	&#13;  
sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  Drags	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  there.	&#13;  They	&#13;  [were]	&#13;  welcomed,	&#13;  but	&#13;  didn’t.	&#13;  Different	&#13;  kind	&#13;  

	&#13;  
24	&#13;  

�of	&#13;  atmosphere.	&#13;  Different	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people.	&#13;  So	&#13;  people	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Straw,	&#13;  then	&#13;  
they’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  Backstreet,	&#13;  then	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  come	&#13;  back,	&#13;  or	&#13;  go	&#13;  between	&#13;  the	&#13;  two	&#13;  or	&#13;  something.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  different	&#13;  ball	&#13;  game.	&#13;  Opened	&#13;  by	&#13;  two	&#13;  gay	&#13;  men.	&#13;  Planned	&#13;  and	&#13;  put	&#13;  
together	&#13;  and	&#13;  opened	&#13;  by	&#13;  two	&#13;  gay	&#13;  men.	&#13;  Well-­‐run.	&#13;  Friendly.	&#13;  They	&#13;  policed	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  any	&#13;  
kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  harassment	&#13;  from	&#13;  straight	&#13;  punks	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever.	&#13;  We	&#13;  rarely	&#13;  ever	&#13;  got	&#13;  that,	&#13;  but	&#13;  
that	&#13;  happened	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  times,	&#13;  from	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  time.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  stories	&#13;  of	&#13;  
one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  guys	&#13;  who	&#13;  ran	&#13;  it	&#13;  walking	&#13;  around	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  roof	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  pistol	&#13;  in	&#13;  his	&#13;  hand,	&#13;  
saying	&#13;  “you’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  mess	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  customers.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  true	&#13;  or	&#13;  not.	&#13;  
It	&#13;  was	&#13;  always	&#13;  a	&#13;  really	&#13;  nice	&#13;  place.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  loud.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  dance	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  loud,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
very	&#13;  smoky	&#13;  then.	&#13;  But	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  smoked	&#13;  then,	&#13;  so	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  matter	&#13;  to	&#13;  me.	&#13;  Straight	&#13;  people	&#13;  
found	&#13;  it,	&#13;  and	&#13;  particularly	&#13;  straight	&#13;  women.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  they	&#13;  could	&#13;  come	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  
could	&#13;  dance,	&#13;  and	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  time,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  get	&#13;  hit	&#13;  on.	&#13;  Everywhere	&#13;  
else	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  go,	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  get	&#13;  hit	&#13;  on,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  fight.	&#13;  They’d	&#13;  come	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  
didn’t.	&#13;  And	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  good-­‐looking	&#13;  men	&#13;  they	&#13;  could	&#13;  dance	&#13;  with.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  
might	&#13;  put	&#13;  their	&#13;  arms	&#13;  around	&#13;  them	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  hitting	&#13;  on	&#13;  them.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
straight	&#13;  women	&#13;  would	&#13;  come	&#13;  there,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  some	&#13;  straight	&#13;  men	&#13;  would	&#13;  start	&#13;  coming	&#13;  
there,	&#13;  too,	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  best	&#13;  dance	&#13;  bars	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  town,	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
it	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  clientele.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  very,	&#13;  very	&#13;  successful.	&#13;  It	&#13;  put	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  map	&#13;  and	&#13;  
people	&#13;  would	&#13;  come	&#13;  from	&#13;  all	&#13;  over	&#13;  the	&#13;  place	&#13;  because	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  had	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  nicest	&#13;  
bars	&#13;  around.	&#13;  Anywhere.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
24:58	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Let	&#13;  me	&#13;  ask	&#13;  about…	&#13;  well,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  one	&#13;  other	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  read	&#13;  about	&#13;  called	&#13;  Nite	&#13;  &amp;	&#13;  Day.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  recall	&#13;  that?	&#13;  And	&#13;  a	&#13;  follow-­‐up	&#13;  question	&#13;  is—so	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  just	&#13;  ask	&#13;  
about	&#13;  Nite	&#13;  &amp;	&#13;  Day,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  interested—but	&#13;  the	&#13;  follow-­‐up	&#13;  is:	&#13;  how	&#13;  could	&#13;  this	&#13;  possibly	&#13;  
be	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  like	&#13;  six	&#13;  or	&#13;  seven	&#13;  quote-­‐unquote	&#13;  “gay	&#13;  bars”	&#13;  all	&#13;  like	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  at	&#13;  one	&#13;  
time	&#13;  in	&#13;  downtown	&#13;  Roanoke?	&#13;  Was	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  that	&#13;  gay?	&#13;  Were	&#13;  there	&#13;  that	&#13;  many	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
people?	&#13;  How	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  explain	&#13;  that?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
25:30	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  did	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  Nite	&#13;  &amp;	&#13;  Day.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  certain	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  actually	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  
the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  the	&#13;  guy	&#13;  who	&#13;  opened	&#13;  it,	&#13;  or	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  him	&#13;  then.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  open	&#13;  very	&#13;  
long.	&#13;  Quieter	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  place.	&#13;  Food,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  laid	&#13;  back.	&#13;  You’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  
one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  bars.	&#13;  Something	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  sort.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
Why	&#13;  were	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  places	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  open?	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  people	&#13;  flocked	&#13;  here	&#13;  from	&#13;  
everywhere.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lynchburg	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  over	&#13;  here.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  Wytheville	&#13;  
you	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  Danville	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Martinsville	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  Charlottesville	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Roanoke.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  Blacksburg,	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  Tech,	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  
A	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  guys	&#13;  from	&#13;  Tech	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  Every	&#13;  weekend.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  knew	&#13;  a	&#13;  
lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  people,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  parties	&#13;  up	&#13;  there,	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  come	&#13;  down	&#13;  here.	&#13;  A	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
of	&#13;  really	&#13;  nice	&#13;  guys	&#13;  were	&#13;  up	&#13;  there.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  people	&#13;  from	&#13;  everywhere,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
because	&#13;  of	&#13;  where	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  located…	&#13;  and	&#13;  then,	&#13;  back	&#13;  then,	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  bar	&#13;  hop.	&#13;  Like,	&#13;  a	&#13;  
couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  Richmond	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  weekend,	&#13;  or	&#13;  we’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  D.C.	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  weekend,	&#13;  
	&#13;  
25	&#13;  

�just	&#13;  for	&#13;  something	&#13;  different.	&#13;  For	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  experience.	&#13;  For	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  
For	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  crowd.	&#13;  Norfolk.	&#13;  Whatever.	&#13;  People	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  tended	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Richmond,	&#13;  D.C.,	&#13;  and	&#13;  Norfolk.	&#13;  Early	&#13;  on,	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  Greensboro	&#13;  some,	&#13;  but	&#13;  we	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  
like	&#13;  Greensboro.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  something	&#13;  about	&#13;  Greensboro…	&#13;  and	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  Greensboro	&#13;  
thought	&#13;  people	&#13;  from	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  were	&#13;  trash.	&#13;  So	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  an	&#13;  attitude.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  
there.	&#13;  You	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  Greensboro	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  come	&#13;  here.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  ninety	&#13;  
minutes	&#13;  away.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  did,	&#13;  but,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  different.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
27:38	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Were	&#13;  there	&#13;  black	&#13;  gays	&#13;  and	&#13;  lesbians—like,	&#13;  once	&#13;  we	&#13;  get	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘70s—with	&#13;  this	&#13;  
whole	&#13;  mix	&#13;  of	&#13;  bars,	&#13;  were	&#13;  any	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  racially	&#13;  mixed?	&#13;  Or	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  still	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  a	&#13;  white	&#13;  
crowd?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
27:47	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  the	&#13;  Horoscope	&#13;  was	&#13;  mixed.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  was	&#13;  mixed.	&#13;  Everybody	&#13;  was	&#13;  welcome.	&#13;  
There	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  period	&#13;  of	&#13;  time	&#13;  in	&#13;  there	&#13;  where	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  women	&#13;  stopped	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  
coming	&#13;  around	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the…	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  places.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  always	&#13;  welcome.	&#13;  But	&#13;  
they	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  as	&#13;  much.	&#13;  They	&#13;  did	&#13;  to	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  always	&#13;  a	&#13;  fairly	&#13;  
large	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  community	&#13;  here,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  tended	&#13;  to	&#13;  stay	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  to	&#13;  themselves.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  missed	&#13;  that,	&#13;  because	&#13;  earlier	&#13;  on	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  friends.	&#13;  Lesbian	&#13;  friends.	&#13;  I	&#13;  liked…	&#13;  I	&#13;  
really	&#13;  enjoyed	&#13;  having…	&#13;  I	&#13;  liked	&#13;  their	&#13;  company.	&#13;  Had	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  time	&#13;  with	&#13;  them.	&#13;  And	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  
Tradewinds,	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  us	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  around	&#13;  a	&#13;  table,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  being	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  mixed	&#13;  group.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:42	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  had	&#13;  active	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  members?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:45	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Some.	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  some.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:47	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  remain	&#13;  politically	&#13;  involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  any	&#13;  way	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Alliance?	&#13;  Were	&#13;  
you	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  FAIR	&#13;  group?5	&#13;  Were	&#13;  there	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  groups?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:56	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  FAIR	&#13;  group,	&#13;  though	&#13;  most	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  people—I	&#13;  was	&#13;  looking	&#13;  
through	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  newsletters	&#13;  recently,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “oh,	&#13;  yeah,	&#13;  yeah,	&#13;  yeah,	&#13;  yeah”	&#13;  
[recognizing	&#13;  the	&#13;  names	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  FAIR	&#13;  members].	&#13;  It	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  started	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  apartment	&#13;  
building	&#13;  I	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  on	&#13;  another	&#13;  floor,	&#13;  and	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  involved—I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  
his	&#13;  name	&#13;  there.	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  he	&#13;  died	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  months	&#13;  ago.	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  
involved,	&#13;  although	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  political	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  Worked	&#13;  from	&#13;  then	&#13;  regularly	&#13;  and	&#13;  
very	&#13;  heavily	&#13;  in	&#13;  political	&#13;  campaigns	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  up	&#13;  through	&#13;  Carter’s	&#13;  second	&#13;  campaign,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  even	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while	&#13;  after	&#13;  that,	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  point	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  just	&#13;  burned	&#13;  out.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  like…	&#13;  
In	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  campaign	&#13;  every	&#13;  year.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  election	&#13;  every	&#13;  year.	&#13;  Either	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  

5	&#13;  The	&#13;  Free	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  for	&#13;  Individual	&#13;  Rights,	&#13;  or	&#13;  FAIR,	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  short-­‐lived	&#13;  gay	&#13;  political	&#13;  organization	&#13;  founded	&#13;  

in	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  in	&#13;  July	&#13;  1977.	&#13;  

	&#13;  
26	&#13;  

�Council,	&#13;  or	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  statewide,	&#13;  or	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  presidential,	&#13;  or	&#13;  something.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  election	&#13;  every	&#13;  
year.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  always	&#13;  something	&#13;  going	&#13;  on.	&#13;  And	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  public	&#13;  
never	&#13;  sees.	&#13;  Unless	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  never	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  breath.	&#13;  Never	&#13;  got	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  
just	&#13;  sit	&#13;  down	&#13;  and	&#13;  [take]	&#13;  a	&#13;  rest	&#13;  from	&#13;  it.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  exciting.	&#13;  Great	&#13;  memories	&#13;  of	&#13;  
the	&#13;  people	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  did	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot.	&#13;  Traffic	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  
apartment	&#13;  was	&#13;  just—during	&#13;  the	&#13;  day,	&#13;  and	&#13;  even	&#13;  up	&#13;  late	&#13;  at	&#13;  night—there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  fairly	&#13;  
good	&#13;  sized	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  even	&#13;  gathered	&#13;  right	&#13;  at	&#13;  my	&#13;  apartment	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
evenings,	&#13;  after,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  been	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  campaign.	&#13;  You’d	&#13;  been	&#13;  working	&#13;  at	&#13;  this	&#13;  and	&#13;  
working	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything,	&#13;  and	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  was	&#13;  tired,	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  
of	&#13;  people,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  mixed,	&#13;  gay	&#13;  and	&#13;  straight.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  gathered	&#13;  at	&#13;  my	&#13;  
apartment,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  talk,	&#13;  socialize,	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot	&#13;  up	&#13;  until	&#13;  
late,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  drag	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  bed	&#13;  the	&#13;  next	&#13;  morning	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  work.	&#13;  
That	&#13;  was	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  I	&#13;  enjoyed	&#13;  that	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  I	&#13;  miss	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  really,	&#13;  really	&#13;  miss	&#13;  that.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  recently	&#13;  
talking	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  involved	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  that,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  
come	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  “you	&#13;  remember	&#13;  so	&#13;  and	&#13;  so?	&#13;  Whatever	&#13;  happened	&#13;  to	&#13;  so	&#13;  and	&#13;  
so?”	&#13;  We’re	&#13;  both	&#13;  political	&#13;  junkies.	&#13;  I	&#13;  watch	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  debates,	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  ad	&#13;  
nauseum.	&#13;  All	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  awful	&#13;  people	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  Republican	&#13;  side.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  just…	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  believe	&#13;  
what’s	&#13;  going	&#13;  on.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  believe	&#13;  it.	&#13;  But	&#13;  yeah,	&#13;  I	&#13;  miss	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  miss	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  worked	&#13;  
in	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  quite	&#13;  a	&#13;  while,	&#13;  up	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘80s,	&#13;  mid-­‐80s,	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  moment	&#13;  in	&#13;  time.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
31:57	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Let	&#13;  me	&#13;  just	&#13;  check	&#13;  in	&#13;  with	&#13;  you	&#13;  about	&#13;  time.	&#13;  We’ve	&#13;  talked	&#13;  for	&#13;  about	&#13;  an	&#13;  hour	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  
half.	&#13;  Are	&#13;  you	&#13;  okay	&#13;  with	&#13;  doing	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  more?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
32:04	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Um	&#13;  hum.	&#13;  [yes]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
32:05	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  So,	&#13;  what	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  hearing	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  when	&#13;  Carter	&#13;  lost	&#13;  re-­‐election,	&#13;  Reagan	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  power,	&#13;  
you	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  Democrats	&#13;  supporting	&#13;  Reagan,	&#13;  too,	&#13;  right?	&#13;  And	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  also	&#13;  a	&#13;  period,	&#13;  
the	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  rise	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  new	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  movement:	&#13;  Anita	&#13;  Bryant—I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  
you	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  comment?—you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  but	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  evangelical	&#13;  Christian	&#13;  
conservative	&#13;  movement,	&#13;  that	&#13;  really	&#13;  helped	&#13;  Reagan	&#13;  come	&#13;  into	&#13;  power,	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
movement—our	&#13;  friend	&#13;  Jerry	&#13;  Falwell	&#13;  down	&#13;  the	&#13;  street	&#13;  here—all	&#13;  those	&#13;  guys	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  
prominence	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  late	&#13;  ‘70s,	&#13;  early	&#13;  ‘80s.	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  memories	&#13;  of	&#13;  that?	&#13;  Cause	&#13;  you	&#13;  
were	&#13;  obviously	&#13;  very	&#13;  involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  politics,	&#13;  but	&#13;  also	&#13;  as	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community.	&#13;  The	&#13;  
gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  became	&#13;  a	&#13;  real	&#13;  target	&#13;  for	&#13;  these	&#13;  conservatives.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
33:00	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Anita	&#13;  Bryant.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  recall	&#13;  us	&#13;  ever	&#13;  really	&#13;  being	&#13;  active	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot	&#13;  and	&#13;  
everything,	&#13;  but	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  very,	&#13;  very	&#13;  aware,	&#13;  very	&#13;  in	&#13;  tune…	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  only	&#13;  speak	&#13;  for	&#13;  myself,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  I	&#13;  read—and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  certain	&#13;  a	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  friends	&#13;  read	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  media—the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
media	&#13;  as	&#13;  well	&#13;  as	&#13;  the	&#13;  regular	&#13;  media,	&#13;  and	&#13;  TV	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  this—about	&#13;  Anita	&#13;  Bryant,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
recently	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  found	&#13;  and	&#13;  gave	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  ballpoint	&#13;  pen.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  says,	&#13;  printed	&#13;  on	&#13;  it	&#13;  “Don’t	&#13;  
Drink	&#13;  Orange	&#13;  Juice.	&#13;  Fuck	&#13;  Anita,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  phone	&#13;  number.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  tracked	&#13;  down	&#13;  that	&#13;  
phone	&#13;  number,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  The	&#13;  Horoscope’s	&#13;  phone	&#13;  number.	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  
	&#13;  
27	&#13;  

�the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  this,	&#13;  but	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine	&#13;  had	&#13;  it,	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “here,	&#13;  you	&#13;  
need	&#13;  this,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  gave	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  me.	&#13;  That	&#13;  whole	&#13;  thing	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  appalling,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  
until	&#13;  just	&#13;  last	&#13;  year	&#13;  or	&#13;  two	&#13;  other	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  that	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  Florida	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  
was	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  follow-­‐up	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Johns	&#13;  Committee6	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything	&#13;  that	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  
prior	&#13;  to	&#13;  her	&#13;  in	&#13;  Florida.	&#13;  And	&#13;  what	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  there,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  new	&#13;  book	&#13;  about	&#13;  
all	&#13;  of	&#13;  that,	&#13;  the	&#13;  details	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  what	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  Johns	&#13;  Committee	&#13;  and	&#13;  
everything.	&#13;  And	&#13;  she	&#13;  came	&#13;  like	&#13;  after	&#13;  that.	&#13;  Sadly,	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  a	&#13;  record	&#13;  
album	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  has	&#13;  a	&#13;  picture	&#13;  of	&#13;  Anita	&#13;  Bryant	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  front—looked	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  drag	&#13;  queen—
and	&#13;  the	&#13;  title	&#13;  is	&#13;  “Battle	&#13;  Hymn	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Republic.”	&#13;  Well	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  resist	&#13;  it,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  bought	&#13;  the	&#13;  
album.	&#13;  Three	&#13;  bucks.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  bought	&#13;  it.	&#13;  And	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  or	&#13;  two	&#13;  ago	&#13;  I	&#13;  donated	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  Pride’s	&#13;  
auction,	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  nice	&#13;  guy	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  there,	&#13;  takes	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything,	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  no	&#13;  earthly	&#13;  
idea	&#13;  why	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  donating	&#13;  it.	&#13;  No	&#13;  concept.	&#13;  Nothing.	&#13;  Knew	&#13;  nothing.	&#13;  And	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  
sad.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  disco:	&#13;  what	&#13;  did	&#13;  he	&#13;  miss.	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  no,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  like	&#13;  disco.	&#13;  Disco	&#13;  was	&#13;  
fun.	&#13;  Disco	&#13;  was	&#13;  good;	&#13;  Anita	&#13;  was	&#13;  not.	&#13;  Recently	&#13;  saw	&#13;  a	&#13;  clip	&#13;  on	&#13;  TV	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  person,	&#13;  the	&#13;  guy	&#13;  
who	&#13;  went	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  shoved	&#13;  a	&#13;  pie	&#13;  in	&#13;  her	&#13;  face,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  wonderful,	&#13;  just	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  
to	&#13;  see	&#13;  that	&#13;  happen.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
35:46	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Were	&#13;  you	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  Falwell	&#13;  down	&#13;  the	&#13;  street?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
35:48	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Oh	&#13;  yeah.	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
35:53	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  wonder,	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  talked	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘60s,	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  1970s,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
we	&#13;  could	&#13;  keep	&#13;  moving	&#13;  forward	&#13;  [but]	&#13;  being	&#13;  mindful	&#13;  of	&#13;  time	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  interested	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  
what	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  are	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  big	&#13;  changes	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  story	&#13;  of	&#13;  Roanoke’s	&#13;  LGBTQ	&#13;  
community	&#13;  say	&#13;  from	&#13;  the…	&#13;  If	&#13;  we	&#13;  interpret—and	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  if	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  wrong	&#13;  to	&#13;  
interpret	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  peak	&#13;  of	&#13;  having	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  discos	&#13;  and	&#13;  bars	&#13;  and	&#13;  spaces	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  
vibrant	&#13;  scene,	&#13;  to	&#13;  today	&#13;  [when]	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  and	&#13;  Backstreet,	&#13;  although	&#13;  
Backstreet’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  necessarily	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  gay	&#13;  crowd	&#13;  anymore	&#13;  so	&#13;  really	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  how	&#13;  do	&#13;  
we	&#13;  get	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘70s	&#13;  to	&#13;  today?	&#13;  Like	&#13;  what	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  see	&#13;  as	&#13;  the	&#13;  big	&#13;  changes,	&#13;  and	&#13;  what	&#13;  are	&#13;  
some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  key	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  noticed	&#13;  along	&#13;  the	&#13;  way?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
36:49	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  mid	&#13;  to	&#13;  late	&#13;  ‘80s	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  quit	&#13;  going	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  bars	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  sort	&#13;  
of	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  and	&#13;  spent	&#13;  more	&#13;  time	&#13;  with	&#13;  friends.	&#13;  What	&#13;  I	&#13;  see	&#13;  now	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  our	&#13;  
own	&#13;  space.	&#13;  The	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  our	&#13;  own	&#13;  essentially	&#13;  private	&#13;  [space]	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  exist	&#13;  
in	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  sense	&#13;  it	&#13;  did	&#13;  before.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  something	&#13;  missing	&#13;  in	&#13;  not	&#13;  having	&#13;  that.	&#13;  
I	&#13;  think	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  something	&#13;  missing	&#13;  in	&#13;  not	&#13;  having	&#13;  our	&#13;  own.	&#13;  I	&#13;  always	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  us	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  sort	&#13;  
of	&#13;  tribe.	&#13;  We	&#13;  should	&#13;  hang	&#13;  together,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  should	&#13;  spend	&#13;  time	&#13;  together,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
6	&#13;  The	&#13;  Florida	&#13;  Legislative	&#13;  Investigate	&#13;  Committee,	&#13;  or	&#13;  the	&#13;  Johns	&#13;  Committee	&#13;  (1956-­‐1965),	&#13;  was	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  

larger	&#13;  Second	&#13;  Red	&#13;  Scare	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  Lavender	&#13;  Scare,	&#13;  an	&#13;  era	&#13;  in	&#13;  U.S.	&#13;  history	&#13;  when	&#13;  federal	&#13;  and	&#13;  state	&#13;  
governments	&#13;  investigated	&#13;  and	&#13;  terminated	&#13;  the	&#13;  employment	&#13;  of	&#13;  thousands	&#13;  of	&#13;  suspected	&#13;  communist	&#13;  
and	&#13;  homosexual	&#13;  employees	&#13;  respectively.	&#13;

�should	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  tribe.	&#13;  Not	&#13;  be	&#13;  assimilated.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  appreciate	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  
assimilation.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  They	&#13;  will	&#13;  never	&#13;  assimilate	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I	&#13;  understand	&#13;  what’s	&#13;  
happening.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  regular	&#13;  places,	&#13;  ordinary	&#13;  places,	&#13;  and	&#13;  feel	&#13;  
perfectly	&#13;  comfortable	&#13;  doing	&#13;  that.	&#13;  One	&#13;  instance	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  recall	&#13;  in	&#13;  particular	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  went	&#13;  
out	&#13;  to	&#13;  this	&#13;  really	&#13;  nice	&#13;  restaurant	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  off	&#13;  in	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  corner,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  
ordered	&#13;  and	&#13;  whatnot—you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  nice	&#13;  place—and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  
table	&#13;  down	&#13;  from	&#13;  us	&#13;  with	&#13;  people.	&#13;  This	&#13;  is	&#13;  [the]	&#13;  ‘70s.	&#13;  And	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  there	&#13;  apparently	&#13;  
picked	&#13;  up	&#13;  on	&#13;  [us]	&#13;  and	&#13;  started	&#13;  making	&#13;  some	&#13;  comments	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  ignored	&#13;  it,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  they	&#13;  kept	&#13;  on.	&#13;  Kept	&#13;  on	&#13;  doing	&#13;  it.	&#13;  This	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  power	&#13;  of	&#13;  being	&#13;  invisible.	&#13;  The	&#13;  head	&#13;  
waiter	&#13;  walked	&#13;  over	&#13;  to	&#13;  us,	&#13;  and	&#13;  apologized	&#13;  for	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  being	&#13;  said,	&#13;  going	&#13;  on.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
proceeded	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  over,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  ring	&#13;  leader	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  group,	&#13;  stand	&#13;  behind	&#13;  his	&#13;  chair,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
just	&#13;  stand	&#13;  there.	&#13;  The	&#13;  waiter	&#13;  was	&#13;  gay.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  stand	&#13;  there.	&#13;  And	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “what	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  
want?”	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Nothing.	&#13;  Nothing.”	&#13;  Just	&#13;  stood	&#13;  there.	&#13;  It	&#13;  stopped.	&#13;  It	&#13;  just	&#13;  
completely	&#13;  stopped.	&#13;  He	&#13;  just	&#13;  intimidated	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  point	&#13;  where	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  afraid	&#13;  to	&#13;  
say	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  He	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  power	&#13;  because	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  head…	&#13;  he	&#13;  could	&#13;  have	&#13;  ordered	&#13;  them	&#13;  
out.	&#13;  He	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  power.	&#13;  They	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  why.	&#13;  And	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  invisibility	&#13;  
thing.	&#13;  But	&#13;  today	&#13;  things	&#13;  like	&#13;  that	&#13;  would…	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  fluff	&#13;  it	&#13;  off.	&#13;  You	&#13;  just	&#13;  say	&#13;  “what	&#13;  the	&#13;  
hell.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care.”	&#13;  Because	&#13;  it	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  happen	&#13;  that	&#13;  often.	&#13;  If	&#13;  it	&#13;  does,	&#13;  so	&#13;  many	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
people	&#13;  around	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  be	&#13;  negative	&#13;  about	&#13;  it,	&#13;  whether	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  straight	&#13;  or	&#13;  gay.	&#13;  
So	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  thing	&#13;  is	&#13;  just	&#13;  different.	&#13;  The	&#13;  need	&#13;  for	&#13;  that	&#13;  space	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  as	&#13;  big	&#13;  as	&#13;  it	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  
be.	&#13;  Which	&#13;  is	&#13;  good	&#13;  and	&#13;  bad.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  having	&#13;  that	&#13;  explosion	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  number	&#13;  
of	&#13;  bars—and	&#13;  then	&#13;  granted,	&#13;  Nite	&#13;  &amp;	&#13;  Day	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  there	&#13;  for	&#13;  very	&#13;  long;	&#13;  Murphy’s	&#13;  was	&#13;  
not	&#13;  there	&#13;  very	&#13;  long;	&#13;  Horoscope	&#13;  was	&#13;  only	&#13;  there	&#13;  for	&#13;  three	&#13;  or	&#13;  four	&#13;  years—so,	&#13;  they	&#13;  kind	&#13;  
of	&#13;  come	&#13;  and	&#13;  go,	&#13;  but	&#13;  then	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  track	&#13;  record	&#13;  for	&#13;  most	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bars	&#13;  
everywhere,	&#13;  they	&#13;  come	&#13;  and	&#13;  go.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
40:50	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  remarkable	&#13;  that	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  glip,7	&#13;  has	&#13;  otherwise	&#13;  been	&#13;  open	&#13;  
continuously	&#13;  for	&#13;  almost	&#13;  forty	&#13;  years.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
40:57	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
40:59	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  And	&#13;  probably	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  internet	&#13;  has	&#13;  also	&#13;  changed	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  that	&#13;  gays	&#13;  
meet	&#13;  each	&#13;  other?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
41:06	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
41:09	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  is	&#13;  there	&#13;  anything	&#13;  else	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  say?	&#13;  Share?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  

7	&#13;  Besides	&#13;  closing	&#13;  briefly	&#13;  September	&#13;  to	&#13;  December	&#13;  2013,	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  has	&#13;  been	&#13;  continuously	&#13;  open	&#13;  from	&#13;  

1978	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  present.	&#13;  

	&#13;

�41:17	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know.	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  of	&#13;  anything	&#13;  right	&#13;  off.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean,	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  sit	&#13;  here	&#13;  all	&#13;  night	&#13;  
and	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you	&#13;  stories,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  happened,	&#13;  and	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  that	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  and	&#13;  
whatnot	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  also	&#13;  sit	&#13;  here	&#13;  all	&#13;  night	&#13;  and	&#13;  hold	&#13;  back	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  
I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
41:39	&#13;  
GR:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  hope	&#13;  we	&#13;  can	&#13;  do	&#13;  this	&#13;  again	&#13;  sometime.	&#13;  Tell	&#13;  more	&#13;  stories.	&#13;  Thank	&#13;  you.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
41:42	&#13;  
DJ:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  	&#13;

�GR: Okay so, this is Gregory Rosenthal interviewing Gerry Jennings. It’s February 23, 2016. We
are in Mr. Jenning’s home in Raleigh Court, or is it not Raleigh Court?
00:00:25
GJ: It’s kind of on the edge of Raleigh Court. It’s kind of between Raleigh Court and Windsor
Hills.
00:00:31
GR: Oh Windsor Hills
00:00:32
GJ: Yeah
00:00:33
GR: Okay, this is for the Southwest Virginia LGBTQ History Project Oral History Initiative, and
that’s that. So, Gerry, if you will, just state your name and where you grew up…
00:00:48
GJ: Okay. I’m Gerry Jennings, and I grew up here, in the Roanoke Valley. I was born in
Roanoke City. Lived there until I was about eight and then moved into Roanoke County, and I
lived there until college, until I moved out on my own when I was 24.
00:01:14
GR: So you were born in the ‘50s?
00:01:17
GJ: Uh huh
00:01:20
GR: You said you moved to the county when you were eight?
00:01:24
GJ: Uh huh
00:01:25
GR: So tell me a little bit about those first eight years in Roanoke City. Did you go to public
elementary school?
00:01:34
GJ: I did. First and second grade in Roanoke City. They didn’t have public kindergarten back
then so I went to a private kindergarten.
00:01:50
GR: What was your home like? Siblings? What did your parents do?
00:01:56

2

�GJ: I have one sister who’s three years younger. My mom had been a teacher before I was born,
and after I was born she didn’t go back to work until I was maybe 14 or 15, something like that.
My dad worked for the U.S. government for the Internal Revenue Service. So it was just the four
of us in the family.
00:02:27
GR: Were your folks from this area?
00:02:30
GJ: Yes they were
00:02:34
GR: So what propelled you into the county? Was that a change in job or just a change in
location?
00:02:43
GJ: Just a bigger, newer house. The house that we had in the city was a small kind of little Cape
Cod, and we moved into a ranch that had seven rooms or something. In fact my sister still lives
in the house. Our parents died and she bought my share, and so she’s still there. It’s only just
over the hill from here, it’s very close.
00:03:09
GR: What neighborhood were you in, in the city?
00:03:12
GJ: Grandin Court
00:03:17
GR: So what school district did you go to for the rest of your schooling, K-12?
00:03:25
GJ: So first and second were Grandin Court Elementary. Third was Cave Spring Elementary,
then they changed the district lines so then I went to Mt. Vernon Elementary School for fourth
through seventh grade. And then when I went into eighth grade that was the first year that they
had what was then called an Intermediate School, or a Junior High School basically. So I went to
eighth grade at the Intermediate School, and then Cave Spring Intermediate, and then ninth grade
through graduation at Cave Spring High School.
00:04:03
GR: What was Cave Spring like? What was the community like? Suburban?
00:04:10
GJ: Very suburban, very middle class. There were a lot of kids too though, who were from the
country, probably whose families had lived in Southwest Roanoke County for many, many years.
Then there were lots of suburban kids, many whose parents had transferred here for jobs, with
like GE or [the] railroad or things like that. There were 1,600 kids there at the time, and I think

3

�there were maybe 100 black kids, and maybe two Asian kids. I mean it was a very, very white,
homogeneous student body. Not to mention the teachers, they were all white too, just about.
00:05:12
GR: What year did you graduate from Cave Spring?
00:05:14
GJ: 1972
00:05:16
GR: So I’d imagine the schools were integrated sometime during your middle school?
00:05:26
GJ: Well, it was actually when I was in elementary school, because I know that—this is in
Roanoke County, Roanoke County schools that I’m talking about now—there was one black kid
in my sixth and seventh grade. So at that point we were integrated in some respect, I don’t know
if it was full, I don’t know what the particulars were. Roanoke City schools, I think, integrated
maybe a little bit later than that, cause I remember hearing stories about Patrick Henry High
School, which I actually lived closer to, even though I was in the county I was closer to Patrick
Henry than Cave Spring, but I remember hearing stories about what was going on with Patrick
Henry integrating.
00:06:27
GR: So you were in high school I guess from ‘68 to ‘72?
00:06:30
GJ: Uh huh
00:06:33
GR: Those are tumultuous years in the country, what was it like in Cave Spring?
00:06:39
GJ: Well, I remember the first Earth Day. We had our first Earth Day, it was 1970. Several of us
decided we were going to recognize it by walking to school, instead of taking the bus. So we
walked. It was three miles or something like that. I remember going to a couple of war protests,
and I remember we first celebrated Black History month while I was in high school. So there was
that sort of stuff, but it was pretty low-key, it wasn’t any big drama that I recall anyway.
Probably, rather the political side of things, the bigger changes were coming about in society as
far as the hippies and, you know, long hair and all that stuff. I was not really part of that. I was a
goody-two-shoes.
00:07:52
GR: Were there hippies at Cave Spring?
00:07:54
GJ: Oh yeah! Sure, “the freaks” was the short hand to refer to them.

4

�00:08:05
GR: So what kind of kid were you in those teenage years?
00:08:09
GJ: Oh I was very—I was a little goody-two-shoes. I was in the band, I was on the student
newspaper, I was in the Latin club, and those were my extracurriculars. I was a pretty nerdy kid,
pretty shy kid.
00:08:32
GR: Did you have any sense of your sexuality in high school?
00:08:36
GJ: Yeah, the very beginnings. I think I was probably about sixteen when I actually understood
what was going on in that respect for me. But of course there was no public discussion of that
topic so it was, you know, there was really no outlet that I knew of. Now of course I know now
that there were some of these—what we were talking about earlier before we started recording
about the Gay Alliance [of the Roanoke Valley] and the Big Lick Gayzette—stuff like that that
was beginning to happen when I was still in high school but of course I had no knowledge of
that.
00:09:22
GR: You were certainly not yet going to bars or anything like that, so it was probably hard to
meet anyone who was openly gay. In retrospect, were there students at Cave Spring who were
gay?
00:09:39
GJ: There certainly were, I don’t know if they were acting on it at the time, but yeah, several of
my friends from high school later came out. I remember one time, earlier than high school
probably, when my dad worked downtown, his office was downtown, so we would go and meet
him at the old S&amp;W cafeteria, downtown for dinner pretty frequently. Of course, in the ‘60s
there were malls, the malls were beginning, but there was still a lot of retail and activity going on
downtown. So anyway, we would go down there a lot. I remember when we would drive home,
we would drive up Franklin Road out of downtown and we would go by The Tradewinds. Well,
I, of course didn’t know anything about The Tradewinds, and I don’t know what my parents said
about The Tradewinds while we passed it, but I remember thinking that there was something
wrong about that place because of the way that they talked about it. So they knew, I guess, what
kind of place it was. As I understand it, The Tradewinds was there from the ‘40s, and was a gay
bar even throughout that period. Have you learned something about that? So anyway, it was just
interesting that I knew there was something shady about the place before I knew what it was.
00:11:28
GR: What is your memory of that space? When you were driving by on Franklin, did it have an
aura of secretiveness to it? Or skeeviness? Was there something that would make your parents,
you know be like “that place ain’t right”?

5

�00:11:47
GJ: Just by looking at it? I don’t think so. I mean it had a big sign “Tradewinds” and I think it
had a palm tree on the sign. No, I don’t think there was anything particularly skeevy looking
about it. Although it was kind of on the border between downtown and Old Southwest, and Old
Southwest was kind of on the shady side in those years. I don’t know if that had anything to do
with it, but it was basically downtown. I mean it was right on the edge, you know?
00:12:23
GR: Could you elaborate on what was Old Southwest’s reputation, what was it like?
00:12:32
GJ: Well, at the time I didn’t know anything about it. Although my parents had friends who lived
there, close friends who lived there so we would go there and visit. They lived in an apartment,
upstairs in a house, and I think that they owned the house, but I don’t really know. Aside from
that I didn’t really know anything about Old Southwest. That changed when I first moved. When
I first moved out of the house I moved to Old Southwest, when I was 24. So at that point I was
certainly aware of it and was involved in the neighborhood organizations and stuff.
00:13:14
GR: So take me back now to high school, you graduated in ‘72, what was next for you?
00:13:23
GJ: Well I went to college. I went to [the] University of Virginia in Charlottesville. I was there
all four years. I majored in Psychology with no particular idea of what I was going to do when I
came out.
00:13:41
GR: What was that like? What was it like in Charlottesville in those years?
00:13:45
GJ: There was a lot of stuff to be exposed to, like just about anybody who goes off to college is
going to experience. In those days, I think it was maybe more true than now, in fact I’m sure it is,
that somebody in that position who gets exposed to a lot more stuff that they’ve never even
thought of. It was a little bit overwhelming for me. At first I was glad to be kind of anonymous. I
think there were 16,000 students when I was there, undergrad and grad together. It’s a lot bigger
now. I kind of liked being anonymous, but then I never really got into a good grove there. I mean
my grades were okay and all that, but my grandmother died on November 1st of my first year at
UVA. I was very close to her, and I think that, for a year or so, had a pretty major impact on me.
Unfortunately I didn’t take my father’s advice, and when I went to UVA, I decided to room with
my best friend from high school. He said, “Don’t do it, because if you do that you’re not going to
meet as many people.” And he was right. I didn’t meet as many people. So, socially it was sort of
you know…. I mean I had fun and everything, but it was somewhat limited I think from what it
could have been if I had had a little wider circle than what I had started off with. But I liked
UVA. I enjoyed it. I certainly became more politically aware and so forth. ‘72 was the first year I
was able to vote for president. I voted for Nixon. [chuckles] Haven’t voted for a Republican for

6

�president since then, but by that point I was beginning to be more politically aware. Chuck Robb
was in law school at UVA at the time. He was head of the Student Legal Forum. They brought in
speakers, and he of course had pretty good connections, being the son-in-law of President
Johnson. So they brought in all these big names in politics. The one I remember the most is
Hubert Humphrey. That was an interesting part of it, to see some of these national figures speak.
00:17:06
GR: I’m interested in your political awakening, because you said back in Cave Spring that you
went to some anti-war demonstrations, Earth Day, and so on. At that time did you feel that you
understood your political values, that they had formed yet? Or was that more “hey, people are
going to this thing and you want to tag along?”
00:17:31
GJ: Well, it was some of that yeah. I had a couple of close friends who were really into the antiwar stuff. So I tagged along with them to some extent, but no, my political ideas were not well
formed at all. I think that my thoughts at the time about Nixon and [Senator George] McGovern
were just that the things McGovern was saying just didn’t seem realistic to me, but that was
about the entire depth of my understanding about it.
00:18:19
GR: What kind of values did your parents have and raise you with? Was it a religious
household? Were your parents politically aligned in any direction?
00:18:30
GJ: It was not a religious household. My mother—that’s funny I was thinking about this last
night—my mother, a lot of times on Sunday mornings would say “Well we really ought to go to
church today” but then, you know, she would just sit there with the rest of us. She didn’t push it.
I think she just felt the social obligation. We belonged to a church, a Presbyterian church, well
first to a Baptist church then a Presbyterian Church, but we didn’t go much at all. They never
mentioned religion other than that. Didn’t say grace. Very, very nonreligious kind of upbringing.
And they were southern people, and you know, their ideas about race were not hateful, but were
not enlightened, at all. Of course in those years, a lot of the changes that were happening as far as
race relations were playing out in television with TV characters, guests on talk shows, and that
kind of stuff. So we had some debates in the house about that. My mom and dad kind of thought
that some of that was being forced on society. But as I said, they were not hateful, at all, as far as
race went or anything for that matter.
00:20:14
GR: And you didn’t have any conversations about sexuality, before leaving home?
00:20:19
GJ: No, no I didn’t. In fact I hadn’t come out to anybody until my one friend Kathy, who was a
very close friend in high school and again at UVA, she was the first person I ever came out to
and she was very accepting. Then there was one other young woman who I was very close to.
She was kind of pressuring me because she wanted us to be dating, she wanted to be involved
and of course I wasn’t interested in that. Although we did have sex twice, as it turned out, after I

7

�moved out of my parents’ house. But I wanted to move out of my house, into my own place,
before I told her because I thought it would be very upsetting for me if she didn’t take it well.
And she did. She did take it pretty well at least overtly. So anyway, I was out of the house at 24
and in an apartment. I was also coming out kind of socially at that point, in November of 1978.
00:21:54
GR: Now you lived in the dorms at UVA?
00:21:58
GJ: First year I did. They didn’t have dorm space for anyone but first year students. They had a
little bit for upperclassmen, but very few, very little space for upperclassmen. And I wanted to
stay on the grounds, in a dorm, but I didn’t get picked in the lottery to do that. So I had an
apartment the rest of the three years.
00:22:24
GR: And then when you graduated, you moved back to Roanoke, you were saying, and you lived
at home for a little bit longer…
00:22:29
GJ: Yeah, for about two more years. I stayed in Charlottesville through the summer after
graduating in 1976 because we had the apartment through August. I had a job there I worked as a
clerk in the Miller &amp; Rhoads Department Store in downtown Charlottesville. I worked at the
Miller and Rhoads here during breaks and during summers through college. So I did that up there
full time for that summer.
00:23:04
GR: Was there any kind of gay student group at UVA?
00:23:08
GJ: There was.
00:23:09
GR: Were you involved?
00:23:10
GJ: No no, no. There was a Gay Student Union, but I wouldn’t have touched it with a ten-foot
pole. [chuckles] It just didn’t seem like an option, even somehow. I mean, I knew what they were
about, and I knew what was really going with me, but I just was not ready to deal with that at all.
I had a couple of come-ons from guys who were friends of mine who turned out to be gay later,
but I just kind of ignored it or brushed it aside. I just wasn’t ready.
00:23:53
GR: That first female friend that you came out to, that was at UVA or that was after?
00:23:56

8

�GJ: That was after we were at UVA. I think she too had wanted something more than friendship,
but it didn’t happen.
00:24:12
GR: So when you moved back to Cave Spring in ‘76, I guess, or late ‘76?
00:24:19
GJ: Yeah, September ‘76.
00:24:22
GR: Moved back home, so then what were you up to at that time? Did you go into Roanoke and
explore the social world of the bars?
00:24:32
GJ: No. No, I didn’t do that until two years later. No, I was working and living at home. I was
going out to some bars, but not gay bars. Still, really didn’t have any knowledge about that at
that point.
00:25:03
GR: So tell me about this moment when you decided to move out and get your own place in Old
Southwest, what was that moment in your life about? What was that change about?
00:25:15
GJ: Well I think at the time it just kind of felt like the natural thing to do. There wasn’t any
problem living at home. Mom and dad had finished the basement, so I was in a bedroom in the
basement, so I had a bath down there and I had kind of my own space. But it just seemed like the
natural progression. But I was tying the timing of coming out to this one “girlfriend” to when I
moved out. So I had, I guess, thinking back on it now, some kind of timetable in my head of
moving forward once I had moved out.
00:26:17
GR: So you’re basically telling this woman “This is not going to work out the way you think”
and also this is an opportunity for you to come out, be more authentic in your own identity, your
own life, and the way to do that was to get an apartment and move forward in your life?
00:26:41
GJ: Yeah
00:26:42
GR: So do you remember where you lived in Old Southwest?
00:26:45
GJ: Yeah
00:26:46
GR: What street?

9

�00:26:48
GJ: I was on Franklin Road, in an apartment. Not very close to The Tradewinds, a few blocks up
from Tradewinds, which had nothing to do with getting that apartment. It was a nice apartment,
it was four rooms. It was $125 a month, including heat. The building was owned by the church
two doors down. There were six units in the building and I was on the first floor.
00:27:23
GR: This was 1978?
00:27:28
GJ: Yeah, it was 1978
00:27:35
GR: So, I take it you got involved with some of the gay organizations and stuff pretty shortly
or…
00:27:46
GJ: Well, I didn’t find anything in Roanoke to get involved in. I mean, I knew about the bars,
and I went to—at the time I first came out, I didn’t know anything about the Tradewinds or the
Horoscope, which I don’t know if the Horoscope was still open at that point or not—but the bar
that I went to first was called Murphy’s and I went there in November of ‘78, maybe—I don’t
know how many times—maybe two or three. Then the Park opened in December, and then
nobody ever went back to Murphy’s, I don’t think.
00:28:28
At that time, I didn’t know of any organizations in Roanoke. So I first heard about
organizations in Lynchburg. Well, one organization called PALS, which was Positive Alternative
Life Styles. It was a support group basically. So every other Sunday I would go drive to
Lynchburg. For I don’t know, a year or two, maybe three, that was the organizational
involvement I had. From that we started the Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance, which was sort of
intended to be the political side of things. We had a telephone help line for a long time, and we
did the beginnings of some political activism. I remember doing a radio show one time in
Lynchburg, anonymously, with someone else. I talked about being gay on this radio show. They
had some parties that were fundraisers. There was one particular house in Lynchburg on
Harrison Street.1 Have you heard about this?
00:29:46
GR: Yes
00:29:47
GJ: My good friend, who I shouldn’t name although I know he’d be delighted if I did, owned
that house, and it was a big you know classical kind of house, a Victorian house. So he would
host lots of parties there. So that was a lot of fun. Then at some point, I’m not sure when, early

1

319 Harrison Street.

10

�‘80s I guess, that’s when there was some stuff happening in Roanoke. It gradually moved away
from Lynchburg to the groups here.
00:30:32
GR: It’s interesting to me that you were commuting to Lynchburg for this gay community
because I think that people have a sense of Roanoke as being a kind of hub, and Lynchburg
would be a more conservative place, and certainly Jerry Falwell and all those people were based
there. Now tell me about the PALS group, which I guess you’re saying was a sort of predecessor
to Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance?
00:31:01
GJ: Yes
00:31:02
GR: So that PALS was in someone’s home?
00:31:03
GJ: Uh huh
00:31:04
GR: Was it mostly men, can you tell me a little about it?
00:31:11
GJ: It was men and women. It rotated from just really two or three people’s homes, I think.
There would be 30-40 people there. Sometimes we would have a topic and the people running it
would kind of put together the program sometimes. It was Sunday afternoons. I think it was the
first and third Sunday or something like that. So yeah, that was my first step into that kind of
group.
00:31:54
GR: Do you remember how you found out about it?
00:31:56
GJ: Yes, a co-worker of mine, at the time, was seeing some guy from Lynchburg and he told him
about it.
00:32:07
GR: Were there other Roanokers going out there?
00:32:09
GJ: Uh huh
00:32:11
GR: It was really catching people from…
00:32:12

11

�GJ: Well there were a few. There weren’t many from Roanoke at first. Only this friend from
work and the guy he was seeing, and like I said he lived in Lynchburg anyway, so it might of just
been the two of us there at the very beginning. There really weren’t that many Roanokers that
went later on. There were a few. Especially after the political group started, the Blue Ridge
Lambda Alliance. I remember that I would usually drive and there would usually be four of us in
the car going to meetings. Those meetings would be like on Wednesdays at 6:30 or something so
we’d hit the road right after work. My memory is that it was every week, but I don’t think it was
every week, I think it must have been every couple weeks, for a long time like a couple or three
years we did this.
00:33:11
GR: The Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance, which you’re saying was founded in Lynchburg, would
you say it was founded in that house on Harrison Street?
00:33:21
GJ: Yep
00:33:22
GR: Early ‘80s like 81?
00:33:26
GJ: Uh huh. I’ve got the newsletters, some of the PALS—I don’t think I have all of the PALS
newsletters, but I have some of them, and then that’s what evolved into the Blue Ridge Lambda
Press, the Pink Pages newsletter.
00:33:41
GR: What was your involvement in the shift towards the political organization? Were you a part
of that?
00:33:46
GJ: Oh yeah, I was one of the few that was making that happen. It was all under—this has been
true of my involvement all through the years, I was very behind the scenes as far as the public
viewpoint or the perspective of somebody in the public. Although my name was in the newsletter
in the Lambda press newsletter. But I never did TV or press or anything like that using my name.
00:34:26
GR: What were the political issues at that time, early ‘80s? When you were going to PALS
meetings, what were the issues that you felt like “hey we need to do something different”? What
propelled the Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance into fruition?
00:34:50
GJ: I think primarily it was just to dispel the negative impressions that were out in the culture
about being gay. I think that was the main thing. We did do some candidate surveys. I think even
in those early years we did, but half the time we didn’t get responses. One of the things that was
on our minds was that it was actually illegal to serve gay people in a bar, for many years, until I
don’t know, the early ‘90s. When Mary Sue Terry was attorney general there was a court ruling

12

�that opposed that and as I recall she declined to appeal it or declined to support the appeal. So
that was one thing that we were pretty taken aback by. It was messing with our social life, or
potentially it was.
00:36:06
GR: Would you say at that time when you were involved with PALS and Blue Ridge Lambda
Press, where were the key social places? I guess Murphy’s [had] closed down…
00:36:17
GJ: The Park was the only one I really went to. There were two or three other places that were
open at some point. I don’t know when The Last Straw, Backstreet—I don’t know when those
opened really because I never went to them for a long time. I did eventually go to them some.
But for whatever reason, I kept my social, nightlife activity to The Park. Now there were some
other bars that opened and closed along the way and I did go to those some, but that was mostly
later in the ‘80s and ‘90s I think.
00:37:02
GR: Maybe it was the dance scene at The Park was that your scene?
00:37:06
GJ: Well I did dance back then, yeah. I mean it was where the most people were. You know back
then it was almost all men, it was almost all gay. There would be hundreds of people in there.
You know, it was a very exciting place to be.
00:37:27
GR: I do want to go back to Lynchburg and the Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance but a question
about The Park because you said in December of ‘78 when it opened up you were like “this is
the place,” so what was The Park like at that time? What are your memories of what it used to
be?
00:37:44
GJ: Right at the beginning or just kind of in those early years?
00:37:50
GR: Both
00:37:52
GJ: It was, you know, a very sexually charged atmosphere. I mean it was not a place where there
was sexual activity going on. I mean there was probably a little bit in the bathroom stall or
something, but not much. I mean that was not a real prevalent thing at all. At least not that I
recall or knew of. It was just a lot of fun, you know. I mean they were open at the beginning
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and there were weeks that I would be there
almost every one of those nights. And I lived really close to it. I only lived in my apartment on
Franklin for about a year and a half, and then I bought a house on Marshall Avenue, which was
really the urban frontier, back then. I bought this house for $16,000, and it needed some work,
but it was basically livable. Then I lived in that house for thirteen years and did eventually do a

13

�lot of renovations in there, but it was just like, you know, five blocks from The Park or
something, so you know it was very handy… That isn’t why I bought the house there though.
[Chuckles]
00:39:15
GR: Was The Park a place to meet people for you or did you go with a partner?
00:39:21
GJ: No I didn’t go with a partner. I’ve not had a lot of luck in the partner department over the
years. But yeah, I would go, meet a lot of people, and see friends… Yeah, it was a social hub for
me, probably more than a lot of people, more than most people, more than was healthy probably.
00:39:46
GR: So back to the Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance, was HIV on your radar screen in the
community at the time? Was that some of the organizing?
00:39:58
GJ: There wasn’t a whole lot of organizing with that group around that issue. Now there was,
you know, in Roanoke, there was more happening with that. I remember going to some meetings
for the Roanoke AIDS Project when it first began. But, I didn’t stay real involved with that
aspect of things. I remember going through some process of thinking, well here I’ve just come
out, and enjoying all this, and having a good time, and now this, you know, “the gay plague” has
started. That was a pretty shocking kind of realization that somewhat gradually dawned on us.
But I don’t really remember that being something that we were organized around, generally.
00:41:21
GR: So how did the Blue Ridge Lambda Press start? Were you involved in starting that up?
00:41:28
GJ: Uh huh, oh yeah. I mentioned earlier that I was on the school newspaper in high school, I
was the editor my senior year. So I was very involved with that, and I did some of that in college
at UVA, [but] not a whole lot. I did some writing for the paper, The Cavalier Daily, at UVA, but
then I worked in production and I just did paste up for most of my involvement with that. But
that was still something that I really enjoyed. I was probably, I don’t know if I was the person
that was pushing to do the Lambda Press, but I was certainly one of the two or three that was
very involved in getting that going.
I remember subscribing to—you know, like I said in those years there was just so little in print,
that I knew of—but I remember subscribing to the Gay Community News, which was published
in Boston, and so I subscribed to that in the mail, cause that was the first thing that I knew of,
first such publication I knew about. So I was really eager to learn all of that and be exposed to
that and then expose other people to it with the Lambda Press, which was of course nothing in
comparison with the Gay Community News in Boston, which was, you know, a full-fledged kind
of newspaper basically. But in our own little way it was a good starting point.
00:43:16

14

�GR: Was it always pink pages?
00:43:20
GJ: It was!
00:43:25
GR: So many people in the community who have talked to me about the project say, “The Pink
Pages.” So it’s always been pink pages?2
00:43:28
GJ: Yeah, I would not have chosen the pink pages, but somebody else’s opinion prevailed on
that.
00:43:38
GR: And how often did you put it out?
00:43:40
GJ: It was, I think, every two months. Most of its life, it was every two months.
00:43:50
GR: And what is your sense of its circulation?
00:43:50
GJ: Well it wasn’t a lot. It was a few hundred. I don’t know if we ever printed as many as a
thousand. We had a mailing list. We would mail it to anybody who wanted to, at no cost. And
then we would distribute them in the bars.
00:44:15
GR: So you would take copies down to The Park, and The Straw, and Backstreet and places?
00:44:20
GJ: Well I didn’t go to The Straw or Backstreet much. I don’t remember going there really at all
those years. Maybe the Straw a few times when I was there with some friends or something.
Backstreet, I just don’t hardly ever remember being in in those years. Like I said I’m not sure
when they opened even, The Straw or Backstreet. I’m guessing it was sometime in the ‘80s, the
late ‘80s, but probably not. I don’t know. You probably know.
00:44:56
GR: Yeah, I think The Straw was early ‘70s.
00:45:00
GJ: Was it? Oh my gosh.
00:45:02
2

The Blue Ridge Lambda Press was always printed on pink-colored pages. People in the community colloquially
refer to it as “The Pink Pages.”

15

�GR: It closed in the early ‘90s. Backstreet’s been harder to pin down.
00:45:08
GJ: Well it opened later I know that.
00:45:10
GR: Maybe early ‘80s or something…
00:45:11
GJ: Yeah cause when I was working downtown, at lunchtime, it was some other kind of
establishment there, and I remember going at lunchtime with some of my guys—the other guys
at work—and we would go and have a hot dog or hamburger or whatever and shoot pool or play
pinball or whatever at lunchtime in that same space. So that would have been the early ‘80s.
00:45:32
GR: What were you doing for work?
00:45:34
GJ: Well I ended up in social work. I didn’t plan it. But when I came out of college I went to the
employment commission and they said well go see these people at CETA, which was a federal
employment program that stood for I think Comprehensive Employment and Training Act,
CETA.3 So I went to CETA and they said “Well you qualify for a CETA job, once you’re
unemployed for 30 days,” so they said come back in thirty days. So I did that and I ended up
with a job as a Medicaid Eligibility worker for Roanoke City DSS [Department of Social
Services]. So I did that. I think that was just for seven months, and then I got a social work job
there, and that was what I did for the next 17 years. But like I said, it was just chance. I mean, I’d
been a psychology major, so it had some connection to that sort of thing. Yeah, so that’s what I
was doing.
00:46:40
GR: So you mentioned that eventually the gay organizing moved back to Roanoke, or something
happened in Roanoke? I’m not sure when ALGO formed, the Alliance of Lesbian and Gay
Organizations, was that in the ‘80s?
00:46:57
GJ: Maybe the late ‘80s. I’m not sure exactly. I’ve probably got some documents though that
would tell us that.
00:47:09
GR: So would you say that through most of the ‘80s you were continuing to go down to
Lynchburg to work with the Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance?
00:47:18
3

The Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) was a 1973 federal law that provided job training for
public sector employment.

16

�GJ: I don’t know, maybe most of the ‘80s. I’m not sure exactly, but at some point we brought it
to Roanoke. The Lambda Press publication we brought to Roanoke and it was taken over by the
Roanoke Valley Gay Alliance or the Roanoke Valley Gay and Lesbian Alliance, I think it had
different names. So that was kind of who published it through the time that I was involved with
it.
00:47:51
GR: Did the Lambda Alliance continue on in Lynchburg? Did the Press separate? Did the
Alliance sort of dissolve in Lynchburg?
00:47:57
GJ: I think eventually it did. But I think they kept—the gay helpline for instance—they kept that
for some years after. I don’t know how many. That was located in the house on Harrison Street
throughout its time as far as I know. Now that guy moved away in I think it was…1986 when he
moved. So I’m not sure after that what happened.
00:48:36
GR: So you were eventually back in Roanoke, working on the press in Roanoke. I don’t really
know anything about the Roanoke Valley Gay and Lesbian Alliance at that time here, so there
was a group that was providing a home for the press, what else can you say about that gay and
lesbian group?
00:48:54
GJ: Well that was becoming more political. We did candidate surveys. We had… a name that I
am gonna say out loud cause I’m sure you know of this fellow, Sam Garrison, who is deceased.4
Sam was very public and he was kind of the public face of that group, or the most public face of
that group, I should say.
Then there were some issues that came up. At one point the police did a major crackdown on
soliciting. So the group made a lot of noise at City Council and they sort of pulled back from
that. I can’t remember the specifics of it I think there was a new anti-soliciting ordinance or
something that they eventually repealed, I guess, I’m not sure exactly, like I said.
And we did candidate interviews. We interviewed some candidates. I remember interviewing
David Bowers, and Jim Trout, who was a City Councilman for a number of years who’s
deceased now, and a few others.5 Group interview kind of things. So that was primarily what we
did.

4

Sam Garrison was born in Roanoke in 1942. In 1969, at age 27, he became the youngest Commonwealth’s
Attorney in the history of Virginia. In 1971, he moved to Washington, D.C., and in 1974 he defended President
Nixon in his impeachment hearings. Garrison returned to Roanoke in the late 1970s / early 1980s and subsequently
came out. He passed away in 2007.
5
David Bowers was the mayor of Roanoke in 1992-2000 and again in 2008-2016. Jim Trout was a City Councilor
in Roanoke in 1968-1976, in 1982-1990, and again in 1996-2000.

17

�We did some stuff in Richmond. I never went lobbying in Richmond, but I think some of our
members did. We didn’t have many members, we’re talking like six or eight or ten people, it was
never a big group.
00:50:49
GR: Was it mostly men?
00:50:50
GJ: Yeah. It was really all men. The lesbians were very separate. As I said earlier, they didn’t go
to The Park. I don’t know where they went. I know they had a group called First Fridays that was
a social group. I think that went on for a number of years. I don’t remember anything about
where they met or what the logistics of that were.
We tried to get some of them to be involved, and we were never really very successful. I think
that was the reason that the ALGO group [the Alliance of Gay and Lesbian Organizations] came
about, because we wanted to try and build our numbers and gain strength. But that didn’t last too
many years either I don’t think. I think they were probably the nominal sponsors of the Pride
event for part of the time. I know that they awarded the…I can’t remember...just the ALGO
Service Award or something it was called. I got that one year.6 I have a plaque. It’s on the wall in
my office back here. [chuckles]
00:52:18
GR: Tell me about Sam. When did you meet Sam Garrison? I mean I’ll never be able to know
him, what I heard was that he was a very firebrand, and it sounds like you worked alongside him
for many many years. So how did you meet him and what was his role in the community?
00:52:42
GJ: Well I don’t remember how I first met him. He was at that time—you’ve probably heard
some of his background—when I met him he had been disbarred and he had been in prison for
embezzling from a client, a law client, so he had fallen as far as you can fall. He was kind of
newly out himself, I think, but with great gusto. He became kind of a fitness junkie, he ran, he
jogged and jogged and jogged. He was real thin from that. He was very healthy looking, and he
was healthy as far as I know. I remember Sam was the one who pushed for us to do a Pride the
first time. I was kind of skeptical that we could make that happen in a place like Roanoke, but he,
you know he was gung-ho, and of course he proved to be right on that, here thirty years later or
whatever.
00:53:59
GR: Well tell me about that, that was 1989 I think, the first Pride in the Park? In Wasena, right?
00:54:09
GJ: Yeah, but I thought it was a little earlier than that cause I think we just had the thirtieth.
Maybe I’m not right about that though…

According to an informal history written by Charlotte Eakin, Gerry Jennings received the ALGO Service Award in
1995. See Charlotte Eakin, “PRIDE History,” c. 2006, http://www.roanokepride.org/history.html (Accessed March

�00:54:19
GR: Well we could easily go online and look. It was definitely late ‘80s.
00:54:23
GR: Okay, yeah.
00:54:25
GR: So what was the idea? Of course Pride is now its own organization and carries on. What was
the idea behind having a Pride in the Park? I don’t know if it was called that the first time?
00:54:39
GJ: It was. It was called Pride in the Park. Well you know, most of us had been to Washington
DC in particular to the Pride up there, which was well established, and was a huge event on a
large scale, and we knew that other smaller cities were beginning to do it. So you know, it
seemed like the next step I guess for that to happen here.
00:55:10
GR: What did you plan? What were the components of the festival?
00:55:16
GJ: Well, it was as you mentioned in Wasena Park. It was very modest. We had volleyball and I
think softball competitions and there was a big picnic. I think at that first one we had
entertainment. We had a small stage that was brought in. I don’t know about the first year but I
know in the early years we had a variety of entertainment. We had some drag, but not all drag.
We were all interested in not having all drag. [chuckles]. We had this singing duo called
Romanovsky and Phillips, a couple of gay guys who toured around nationally, we had these—I
can’t remember, I think they were from DC, and I can’t remember their name off the top of my
head—they did country dancing and so they would do these little routines, you know, and they
had their cowboy hats and tight jeans, and so it was very appealing that way. They were fun.
Gosh, I think we had—the names are really escaping me—but anyway, we had a variety of
entertainment like that in those early years. I guess similar to what they do now. We didn’t have
pop stars, but you know, we had a few national acts that we could afford.
00:57:08
GR: Were you all pretty pleased with the turnout? Did you feel like it was successful? Did you
have fears about how the city would feel about it? How the police would feel about it?
00:57:22
GJ: Well yeah. Not so much the city because, of course, we had to get the city’s cooperation
from the beginning to hold it in the city park. The biggest concern was the press. Because we
didn’t want the press there, or we didn’t want them filming there. There was a lot of talk in those
early couple or three years about, you know, would people come if they thought the press was
going to be there? Or would they come if they thought the TV was going to be there? I remember
seeing some of the coverage where they would only shoot people from behind, at a distance, or
only shoot people from the waist down, kind of walking or dancing or whatever, you know. Over

19

�the years of course, that concern just went away, for the most part, over many years actually it
took for that concern to go away.
00:58:20
GR: I imagine people were afraid of being outed.
00:58:22
GJ: Oh yeah, absolutely. I think one of the benefits of Wasena was that it is kind of remote in a
way. You may or may not have noticed it now—of course the Greenway goes right through it
now where we had the event—but there are a couple of picnic shelters that are still there and that
was kind of the basecamp for it, and the stage was kind of on the other side of that from the river
and the ball fields and stuff were right there. It wasn’t the easiest thing to just drive by and spy
who was there. I don’t remember if we had the road blocked off or not. I think we probably did,
except for people to park. So it was a good spot from that standpoint, it kind of lent some privacy
to it.
00:59:28
GR: You know on the other hand I’m thinking people have told me that in the ‘90s that Wasena
was a cruising area and that the undercover police would come through. I don’t know if that was
the same part of the park in terms of location…
00:59:43
GJ: Probably the same stretch because where the Greenway goes now the road went then, and in
fact part of the Greenway is still what was the road. The road went right by the river, it kind of
swerves around away from the river a little bit more but yeah, it was a loop that cruisers could
make to go do that…And I think that it had that reputation for many years and maybe even still
to a degree.
01:00:18
GR: Yeah I just wonder if when you chose Wasena for the Pride in the Park if that was sort of a
space that the gay community sort of knew of, or was it more just “let’s find a semi-remote,
beautiful space to…”
01:00:37
GJ: You know what, I don’t remember. I don’t remember that entering into the discussion. It
may have, but I just don’t know. It didn’t after a few years, it moved to Highland Park. One year
it moved to Highland Park because there was a hurricane and a flood and so it got canceled in
Wasena. That year actually—I think that year the whole thing got cancelled or postponed at least
and then two weeks later —it was like an indoor Pride event. I don’t really remember… I
remember there being controversy about it, but I don’t remember how it played out. Then, I
think, after that happened, after it got flooded out, that was when it moved to Highland. It stayed
there for a number of years before going to Elmwood. So increasingly more visibility. You

20

�know, from Wasena to Highland, [and Highland] was more visible than Wasena, and then
Elmwood of course more than Highland.7
01:01:43
GR: So, I think we’re right at about an hour. How long did you remain involved in these
organizations? Now we’re talking about into the ‘90s, were you still involved with The Blue
Ridge Lambda Press, the Pride organizing, which I guess ALGO was the official group doing
that, how long did you remain involved in these different aspects?
01:02:14
GJ: I got out of most of it in ‘90 or ‘91 because I started graduate school and I was working full
time. So I was pulling back from things at that point, and I never really got involved in things
after that. When I finished [graduate school] in ’93 I didn’t get involved after that.
01:02:43
GR: What did you study? Where was that?
01:02:44
GJ: Social work. I have an MSW. I have a VCU [Virginia Commonwealth University] degree,
but at the time Radford didn’t have an MSW program nor did any of the schools around here, so
they had a remote program. All of my classes were on the Radford campus. The only time I set
foot on VCU’s campus was for the graduation ceremony. So I finished that in the fall of ‘93 and
the ceremony was actually ‘94 spring graduation.
01:03:22
GR: So I know that with Pride in the mid to late ‘90s Roanoke Pride formed its own non-profit
and moved in that direction or something…
01:03:36
GJ: I’m not sure. I would think—What did you say again?
01:03:42
GR: Mid to late ‘90s?
01:03:45
GJ: Oh that’s probably about right.
01:03:47
GR: And The Blue Ridge Lambda Press, that kept going and going? Was there an organization
behind that moving into the ‘90s?
01:03:58

7

According to Charlotte Eakin’s history, Pride in the Park was held in Wasena Park from 1989-1995; Highland
Park from 1996-2003; and Elmwood Park from 2004 to the present. See Charlotte Eakin, “PRIDE History,” c. 2006,

21

�GJ: I think it sort of became its own entity, just carried along by whoever was involved in it, at
the time. I know that there were a couple of women who were quite involved with it later in the
‘90s, and then it just kind of petered out. There was a period of time a year or two where there
was an issue every three or four months, something like that. Probably the last one was maybe
2006 or ‘07. But I think I have all of them, so at some point we can pinpoint that.
01:04:51
GR: I think you gave us the last few years. The ones that you donated went up to early ‘08. I
imagine those are the last issues.
01:05:03
GJ: I think the ones I gave you were the ones I had more than one copy of because I think I still
have a full set of them. I do want to mention one other thing though that hasn’t come up. In
maybe the mid ‘80s a friend and I—a good friend who has moved away too—formed the Gay
Rap Group. You haven’t heard of the Gay Rap Group?
The Gay Rap Group went on for many years, up until the early ‘90s because I also withdrew
from that, at that point, so it went on for—well how many years is that? Not that many years I
guess. It seems like it went on for about ten years but…It was just that just a rap group. We
didn’t really have programs in particular. Usually had a dozen or so people there. I think it was
almost always guys, we probably had a few women, but not that many. The first meeting, the
organizing meeting at that [point] was going to be at my friend’s apartment, he lived out off of
Hershberger and we had a terrible snowstorm that night but we went anyway. There was a
handful of us that went in the snow. Then it met twice a month in the evenings on a Thursday
night maybe—I can’t remember now. We met at…I want to say the Magdalene House but that’s
not right. It was owned by the Catholic Diocese, and it’s next-door to RAM House on Campbell
Avenue.8 Oh what’s that place called? The house was presided over by two or three women, they
weren’t nuns, they were laypeople, but they were like nuns in every way that I knew of at least,
except I knew they weren’t nuns. But they were very welcoming and we would meet in one of
the rooms there.
We did that for years. The group was posted in the PO Box and it was posted in the newspaper,
in different places. So we would get people writing into the PO box and we would write back
and tell them information. We had a lot of people over the years.
01:07:50
GR: What was it called? The Gay Rap Group?
01:07:52
GJ: Yep
01:07:53
GR: What was your motivation to found it?
8

RAM House—Roanoke Area Ministries—is located at 824 Campbell Avenue. Perhaps the building in question is
the Our Lady of Nazareth Church Parish Hall at 822 Campbell Avenue? A local gay activist group, FAIR (Free
Alliance for Individual Rights), held a party in that space in February 1978.

22

�01:07:57
GJ: Well, just to create an alternative to the bars. I could pinpoint the year when it started but my
best memory is that it was in the mid-‘80s. I remember there was one fellow, who’s name I don’t
remember, who I never met, who never came to the meetings, but every so often he would send
us a bunch of stamps. [chuckles]. Cause he knew we were doing all of this stuff through the mail,
and you know that was his contribution.
01:08:36
GR: What were the issues that you were taking up at the meetings?
01:08:42
GJ: Just what you would think. Just personal issues. You know, whatever you could think of we
talked about. But not political stuff. I’m sure that came up, but it was really just talking about
struggles and relationships, and frustrations…that kind of thing. I know one couple who met
there who are still together, and who I’m still friends with. So that was nice.
01:09:19
GR: Yeah that’s great. I hadn’t heard of The Gay Rap Group. So you met for almost ten years in
this Catholic Space?
01:09:28
GJ: Yeah
01:09:30
GR: Men and women?
01:09:31
GJ: I don’t really remember women particularly being there. I mean we were certainly open to
that, but I don’t think many women came. Now there was another group a Dignity-Integrity
group. You probably know Dignity-Integrity. Dignity was a gay Catholic support group and
Integrity was an Episcopalian support group. I think they were a national thing. Very informal,
but across the nation they were called those respectively. It was kind of a combo group that met
for at least a while at—I don’t know if Catholics call it the Manse?—on [Route] 419 right next to
Our Lady of Nazareth. I went to one of those meetings, I think only one because I didn’t have the
religious angle. I remember when they started the meeting they had a prayer, and I remember
waiting in the other room until the prayer was finished, instead of going in and joining the group.
I think I only went to that once and I think it was sometime in the ‘80s, probably before The Rap
Group.
01:10:51
GR: So in conclusion, what would you say are some of the big changes in the LGBTQ
community over time? You were very involved in a lot of activities in the ‘80s and into the early
‘90s, what do you think is different since then? Is the community the same, you’d say, as it was
then or…?

23

�01:11:22
GJ: No it’s not at all the same. I’m not convinced there really is a gay community anymore.
Certainly not like there was in the ‘80s and ‘90s. Gosh, where to begin? I mean it’s just different
in everyway. For my generation of course, so many guys died from AIDS that that put a huge
dent in my generation. I think that Roanoke was, and probably still is, a place where kids who
grew up and are gay move away and don’t really come back much. I mean I know that that
happened in the ‘80s and ‘90s and like I said it still happens today I’m sure. I mean it happens to
some extent in all sub-groups in the Roanoke Area and places like it. People move away to
bigger and better things.
You know if you go to an event like Pride in the Park, these days, in the last number of years, I’ll
go there and see people I’ve never laid eyes on before. I came up in a period where if there was
somebody in town who was gay, you probably would recognize them even if you didn’t know
them, because they would go to the bars. Now of course that was kind of a naïve, because not
everybody who was gay went to the bars, but you know, probably most did.
I think that gay women are more visible than gay men and I think that probably always been true
to a degree, even though the women weren’t going to bars so much, here. I say more visible, and
I guess what I mean is they could exist with a level of acceptance that I think gay men didn’t
have in those years. But now, at Pride in the Park you see more women than men and you see a
lot of kids where you don’t know what their persuasions are, you know.
So I think that the gay community is blending into mainstream society. It’s meant huge changes.
I think it’s similar to what happened with integration. When integration occurred a lot of the
black institutions began to decline and I think the same thing has begun to happen in the gay
scene. I joke around with friends sometimes “you know, it was a lot more fun when we were
oppressed,” cause there was more of a scene, there was more nightlife. Now The Park is really
not a gay bar anymore, not the way it was. A lot of people just don’t go out and if they go out
they have their small groups and they go to this place or that place. There’s not really a central
place now that you can go for a social scene. Which has been very disappointing for me. I guess
because I over-relied on that throughout my adulthood. So that’s hard. That’s hard for me.

course	&#13;  I	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  dancing	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  a	&#13;  wee-­‐thing.	&#13;  But	&#13;  
she	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  show	&#13;  while	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  concerts	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  in	&#13;  Greensboro,	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  [in]	&#13;  preschool,	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  special	&#13;  attraction	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  
little	&#13;  boy,	&#13;  [that	&#13;  was]	&#13;  preschool.	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  under	&#13;  the	&#13;  house	&#13;  and	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  
remember	&#13;  it,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  back	&#13;  then	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  crawl	&#13;  spaces.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  he	&#13;  asked	&#13;  me	&#13;  first,	&#13;  
honestly	&#13;  I	&#13;  do,	&#13;  he	&#13;  asks,	&#13;  “Can	&#13;  see	&#13;  your	&#13;  pee-­‐pee?”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  show	&#13;  you	&#13;  mine	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  
show	&#13;  me	&#13;  yours.”	&#13;  Whatever.	&#13;  And	&#13;  he	&#13;  told	&#13;  his	&#13;  folks,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  never	&#13;  allowed	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  him	&#13;  again.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  so	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  my	&#13;  first	&#13;  memory,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  looking	&#13;  back	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  no	&#13;  idea	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
different	&#13;  from	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  else.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
[JB	&#13;  addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  "I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  small	&#13;  sickly	&#13;  asthmatic	&#13;  child.	&#13;  My	&#13;  sister	&#13;  was	&#13;  17	&#13;  

months	&#13;  younger	&#13;  than	&#13;  me.	&#13;  	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  friend	&#13;  who	&#13;  little	&#13;  lived	&#13;  across	&#13;  the	&#13;  street	&#13;  about	&#13;  
my	&#13;  age.	&#13;  	&#13;  This	&#13;  was	&#13;  preschool	&#13;  probably	&#13;  age	&#13;  4.	&#13;  	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  upset	&#13;  my	&#13;  father	&#13;  
very	&#13;  much	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  knew	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  was.	&#13;  He	&#13;  told	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  to	&#13;  put	&#13;  my	&#13;  sister's	&#13;  dress	&#13;  
on	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  he	&#13;  held	&#13;  me	&#13;  tightly	&#13;  in	&#13;  his	&#13;  arms	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  struggled	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  free	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  front	&#13;  
of	&#13;  the	&#13;  parents	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  friend	&#13;  across	&#13;  the	&#13;  street	&#13;  he	&#13;  told	&#13;  me	&#13;  that	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  act	&#13;  like	&#13;  
a	&#13;  girl	&#13;  that	&#13;  he	&#13;  would	&#13;  dress	&#13;  me	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  girl.	&#13;  	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  mortified.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  ultimate	&#13;  
humiliation	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  felt	&#13;  from	&#13;  that	&#13;  day	&#13;  on	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  ever	&#13;  qualify	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  real	&#13;  
boy."]	&#13;  

	&#13;  
I	&#13;  never	&#13;  heard	&#13;  of	&#13;  any	&#13;  same	&#13;  sex	&#13;  relationship…	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  looking	&#13;  back	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  
different	&#13;  perspective	&#13;  as	&#13;  an	&#13;  informed	&#13;  adult	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  high	&#13;  school.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
extremely	&#13;  lonely.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  one	&#13;  or	&#13;  two,	&#13;  really	&#13;  just	&#13;  one	&#13;  friend	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  might	&#13;  visit…still	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  
choir	&#13;  practice,	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  interested	&#13;  me	&#13;  that	&#13;  mama	&#13;  supported	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Steve’s	&#13;  house	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  just	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  each	&#13;  other,	&#13;  and	&#13;  neither	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  knew	&#13;  what	&#13;  
to	&#13;  do	&#13;  or	&#13;  what	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about,	&#13;  but	&#13;  we	&#13;  just	&#13;  knew	&#13;  we	&#13;  liked	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  together,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  might	&#13;  
happen	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  three	&#13;  times	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  whole	&#13;  life.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  sum	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  understanding.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  
remember	&#13;  the	&#13;  ostracism	&#13;  or	&#13;  just	&#13;  the	&#13;  coldness	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  social	&#13;  supportive	&#13;  
environment.	&#13;  One	&#13;  morning	&#13;  the	&#13;  bell	&#13;  rang	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  kids	&#13;  were	&#13;  at	&#13;  their	&#13;  lockers	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  
the	&#13;  night	&#13;  before,	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  cool	&#13;  kids,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  felt	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  belong	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  planet,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  going	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  auditorium	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  dark	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  crashing	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  pew,	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  
seat,	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  bawling	&#13;  my	&#13;  eyes	&#13;  out,	&#13;  without	&#13;  understanding	&#13;  anything	&#13;  of	&#13;  why	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  
distraught.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
And	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  engaged	&#13;  with	&#13;  woodcarving	&#13;  since	&#13;  age	&#13;  11.	&#13;  Every	&#13;  Saturday	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  
retired	&#13;  industrialist’s	&#13;  home	&#13;  who	&#13;  taught	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  carve	&#13;  wood,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  carved	&#13;  the	&#13;  pew	&#13;  ends	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2	&#13;  

�for	&#13;  my	&#13;  church	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  sang	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  adult	&#13;  choir	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  played	&#13;  the	&#13;  piano	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  group	&#13;  
because	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  taking	&#13;  piano	&#13;  lessons	&#13;  as	&#13;  well,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  engaged,	&#13;  but	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  servant,	&#13;  not	&#13;  as	&#13;  
a	&#13;  peer.	&#13;  And	&#13;  people	&#13;  seemed	&#13;  to	&#13;  really	&#13;  value,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  “Oh	&#13;  you	&#13;  carve	&#13;  wood”	&#13;  or	&#13;  “you	&#13;  carved	&#13;  
the	&#13;  Calvin’s	&#13;  Seal	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  synod	&#13;  office	&#13;  in	&#13;  Raleigh”	&#13;  “Oh	&#13;  you	&#13;  spoke	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  minister	&#13;  designed	&#13;  
something	&#13;  for	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  carve”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “yes,	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  adult	&#13;  things,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  a	&#13;  kid	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  
any	&#13;  friends.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  verbalize	&#13;  that,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  knew	&#13;  that	&#13;  those	&#13;  things	&#13;  occupied	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
would	&#13;  sit	&#13;  for	&#13;  hours	&#13;  and	&#13;  carve	&#13;  wood	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  junior	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  I	&#13;  carved	&#13;  a	&#13;  free	&#13;  form	&#13;  quail,	&#13;  
with	&#13;  sage	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  realistic	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  no	&#13;  plans	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  three	&#13;  dimensional	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  just	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  do	&#13;  without	&#13;  any	&#13;  real	&#13;  worry	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  sit	&#13;  for	&#13;  hours	&#13;  and	&#13;  
hours	&#13;  and	&#13;  hours	&#13;  every	&#13;  week	&#13;  and	&#13;  carve	&#13;  this,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  give	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  junior	&#13;  high	&#13;  
school	&#13;  professor,	&#13;  choir	&#13;  director,	&#13;  because	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  place	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  be	&#13;  successful.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
dyslexic,	&#13;  left	&#13;  handed,	&#13;  very	&#13;  backward,	&#13;  so	&#13;  my	&#13;  father	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  let	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  a	&#13;  practice	&#13;  block	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I	&#13;  gave	&#13;  that	&#13;  to	&#13;  her,	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  something	&#13;  simpler	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  carving	&#13;  with	&#13;  Sidney	&#13;  
Paine.1	&#13;  So,	&#13;  through	&#13;  high	&#13;  school,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  sickly	&#13;  with	&#13;  asthma	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  folded	&#13;  towels	&#13;  in	&#13;  P.E.	&#13;  
[physical	&#13;  education],	&#13;  which	&#13;  meant	&#13;  again	&#13;  no	&#13;  competition,	&#13;  no	&#13;  status	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  team.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  
perfect	&#13;  wallflower.	&#13;  Fragile,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  an	&#13;  oxygen	&#13;  tent.	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  two	&#13;  times	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  child,	&#13;  
because	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  breathe	&#13;  well,	&#13;  and	&#13;  dad	&#13;  would	&#13;  actually	&#13;  put	&#13;  me	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  car	&#13;  and	&#13;  drive	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Sarasota	&#13;  or	&#13;  somewhere	&#13;  in	&#13;  Florida,	&#13;  where	&#13;  the	&#13;  salt	&#13;  air	&#13;  could	&#13;  loosen	&#13;  me	&#13;  up.	&#13;  We	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  
spend	&#13;  the	&#13;  night,	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  just	&#13;  walk	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  strand	&#13;  and	&#13;  come	&#13;  home.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  spending	&#13;  
hours	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  with	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  hot	&#13;  water	&#13;  turned	&#13;  on	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  breathe	&#13;  better.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
06.00	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  college,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  getting	&#13;  beyond	&#13;  your	&#13;  question?	&#13;  Am	&#13;  I	&#13;  okay?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
06.04	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  next	&#13;  question	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  you,	&#13;  is	&#13;  about	&#13;  college!	&#13;  
	&#13;  
06.07	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Oh,	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  college	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like,	&#13;  “Woah,	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  this,	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  meet	&#13;  people!”	&#13;  I	&#13;  
had	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  encounters,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  we	&#13;  camped	&#13;  out	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  with	&#13;  another	&#13;  gay	&#13;  guy	&#13;  and	&#13;  
that	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  new	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  In	&#13;  college	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  out	&#13;  for	&#13;  cross	&#13;  country	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  any	&#13;  
team	&#13;  sports	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  handsome	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  guy	&#13;  that	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  took	&#13;  me	&#13;  under	&#13;  his	&#13;  wing	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  do	&#13;  anything	&#13;  for	&#13;  Duke.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  heterosexual,	&#13;  but	&#13;  he	&#13;  just	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  shepherded	&#13;  
me	&#13;  along	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  glorious.	&#13;  He	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  mind	&#13;  touching	&#13;  me.	&#13;  He’d	&#13;  put	&#13;  his	&#13;  arm	&#13;  around	&#13;  me	&#13;  
and	&#13;  say,	&#13;  “C’mon	&#13;  Jim.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  ran	&#13;  cross	&#13;  country,	&#13;  but	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  physical	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  boyish	&#13;  way,	&#13;  
because	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  felt	&#13;  really	&#13;  qualified	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  male.	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  never	&#13;  measure	&#13;  up.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  23…24	&#13;  [years	&#13;  old],	&#13;  my	&#13;  first	&#13;  cousin	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  handsome,	&#13;  a	&#13;  dancer,	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  eagle	&#13;  
scout,	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  a	&#13;  class	&#13;  president,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  gay,	&#13;  governors	&#13;  school,	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  how	&#13;  many	&#13;  
accolades	&#13;  can	&#13;  one,	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  handsome	&#13;  macho	&#13;  guy,	&#13;  accrue,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  committed	&#13;  suicide.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  
been	&#13;  to	&#13;  stay	&#13;  with	&#13;  him	&#13;  and	&#13;  his	&#13;  lover	&#13;  in	&#13;  Washington	&#13;  [D.C.]	&#13;  the	&#13;  season	&#13;  before	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  came	&#13;  
down	&#13;  to	&#13;  our	&#13;  home	&#13;  for	&#13;  treatment	&#13;  or	&#13;  some	&#13;  issue	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  he	&#13;  went	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  14th	&#13;  Street,	&#13;  his	&#13;  
apartment,	&#13;  he	&#13;  jumped	&#13;  out	&#13;  the	&#13;  window.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  thinking,	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  the	&#13;  nobody.”	&#13;  “Why	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  I	&#13;  
be	&#13;  the	&#13;  one	&#13;  to	&#13;  end	&#13;  my	&#13;  life	&#13;  when	&#13;  Billy	&#13;  was	&#13;  such	&#13;  a	&#13;  fantastic	&#13;  person?”	&#13;  So	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  lived	&#13;  with	&#13;  that	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

�question	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  mind	&#13;  for	&#13;  so	&#13;  long	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  basically	&#13;  coerced	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  ignorance	&#13;  to	&#13;  read	&#13;  the	&#13;  
script	&#13;  that	&#13;  society	&#13;  would	&#13;  give	&#13;  me	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  person	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  straight.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  tried	&#13;  very	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  fall	&#13;  
in	&#13;  love	&#13;  with	&#13;  different	&#13;  girls,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  always	&#13;  a	&#13;  wonderfully	&#13;  platonic	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  this	&#13;  
one	&#13;  girl,	&#13;  how	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  just	&#13;  drive	&#13;  through	&#13;  the	&#13;  countryside	&#13;  for	&#13;  hours	&#13;  and	&#13;  hours	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  
finally	&#13;  the	&#13;  tank	&#13;  of	&#13;  gas	&#13;  would	&#13;  give	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  take	&#13;  her	&#13;  home.	&#13;  	&#13;  Because	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  any	&#13;  
interest	&#13;  in	&#13;  doing	&#13;  what	&#13;  guys	&#13;  do	&#13;  when	&#13;  they	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  driving	&#13;  at	&#13;  night.	&#13;  None	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  
when	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  Affirmation,	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  33-­‐year-­‐old	&#13;  support	&#13;  group	&#13;  for	&#13;  LGBT	&#13;  Mormons,	&#13;  out	&#13;  
and	&#13;  in	&#13;  Mormons.2	&#13;  My	&#13;  brother	&#13;  in	&#13;  Greensboro	&#13;  would	&#13;  take	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  airport	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  
back	&#13;  he	&#13;  would	&#13;  say,	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  where	&#13;  have	&#13;  you	&#13;  been?”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  say,	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  to	&#13;  Salt	&#13;  Lake.”	&#13;  
“Well	&#13;  what	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  in	&#13;  Salt	&#13;  Lake?”	&#13;  “I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  Affirmation.”	&#13;  “Oh,	&#13;  what’s	&#13;  that?”	&#13;  “It’s	&#13;  this	&#13;  
support	&#13;  group	&#13;  for	&#13;  LGBT	&#13;  people.”	&#13;  Silence.	&#13;  	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “well	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  make	&#13;  any	&#13;  response.”	&#13;  He	&#13;  
said	&#13;  “well	&#13;  duh.”	&#13;  	&#13;  “What	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  mean	&#13;  duh?!”	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  realize	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  grew	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  
you	&#13;  brother?”	&#13;  “So?”	&#13;  “Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  never	&#13;  made	&#13;  a	&#13;  comment	&#13;  about	&#13;  a	&#13;  female	&#13;  in	&#13;  
your	&#13;  whole	&#13;  life?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “you’re	&#13;  right.”	&#13;  [JB	&#13;  chuckles]	&#13;  	&#13;  My	&#13;  family	&#13;  understood,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  
understand.	&#13;  My	&#13;  mother	&#13;  had	&#13;  always	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Jim,	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  your	&#13;  brother,	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  your	&#13;  sister,	&#13;  but	&#13;  you	&#13;  
are	&#13;  special.”	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  the	&#13;  oldest,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  really	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  what	&#13;  she	&#13;  
meant	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  understand	&#13;  what	&#13;  “special”	&#13;  meant,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  guessing	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  did.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
10.03	&#13;  
	&#13;  
Years	&#13;  later,	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  mama	&#13;  was	&#13;  dying,	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  taking	&#13;  prednisone,	&#13;  she	&#13;  had	&#13;  become	&#13;  
sedentary,	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  as	&#13;  oriented	&#13;  as	&#13;  she	&#13;  had	&#13;  been.	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  her	&#13;  very	&#13;  formally.	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  
“mom,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  tried	&#13;  my	&#13;  best	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  all	&#13;  expected	&#13;  of	&#13;  me,	&#13;  what	&#13;  society	&#13;  
expected	&#13;  of	&#13;  me.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  survived	&#13;  a	&#13;  thirty-­‐year	&#13;  marriage,	&#13;  and	&#13;  before	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  married	&#13;  I	&#13;  
introduced	&#13;  my	&#13;  wife-­‐to-­‐be	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  graduate	&#13;  school	&#13;  lover.	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Neal,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  Peggy.”	&#13;  “Peggy,	&#13;  
this	&#13;  is	&#13;  Neal.”	&#13;  Neal	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  wore	&#13;  rings;	&#13;  we	&#13;  wore	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  shirts,	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  number,	&#13;  and	&#13;  this	&#13;  
was	&#13;  in	&#13;  graduate	&#13;  school,	&#13;  but	&#13;  Neal	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  together	&#13;  anymore	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  end	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  so	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  we	&#13;  considered,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  honestly	&#13;  all	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  understood.	&#13;  	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  huge	&#13;  
revelation	&#13;  to	&#13;  her	&#13;  family	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  introduced	&#13;  Peggy	&#13;  to	&#13;  Neal.	&#13;  That	&#13;  she	&#13;  in	&#13;  her	&#13;  understanding	&#13;  
had	&#13;  an	&#13;  opportunity	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  before	&#13;  the	&#13;  beginning.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  told	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  
done	&#13;  my	&#13;  best,	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  any	&#13;  problems	&#13;  with	&#13;  Peggy	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  person,	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  mother,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  no	&#13;  relationship,	&#13;  we	&#13;  lived	&#13;  married	&#13;  to	&#13;  an	&#13;  institution	&#13;  and	&#13;  not	&#13;  to	&#13;  each	&#13;  
other.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  both	&#13;  committed	&#13;  to	&#13;  being	&#13;  faithful	&#13;  partners	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  marriage.	&#13;  So	&#13;  she	&#13;  quoted	&#13;  
Galatians	&#13;  3:6	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  it	&#13;  is,	&#13;  “in	&#13;  Christ	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  no	&#13;  slave,	&#13;  nor	&#13;  bond,	&#13;  Jew	&#13;  nor	&#13;  gentile,	&#13;  male	&#13;  
or	&#13;  female.”3	&#13;  And	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  told	&#13;  her,	&#13;  she	&#13;  spit	&#13;  that	&#13;  out,	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  Which	&#13;  is	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
welcoming	&#13;  verses	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  bible.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  speak	&#13;  with	&#13;  me	&#13;  privately	&#13;  and	&#13;  after	&#13;  all	&#13;  
these	&#13;  years,	&#13;  like	&#13;  forty	&#13;  years	&#13;  later,	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  “Well,	&#13;  your	&#13;  dad	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  all	&#13;  
the	&#13;  boys,	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  boys	&#13;  you	&#13;  brought	&#13;  over,	&#13;  especially	&#13;  one.”	&#13;  Well	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  Neil,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“yes,	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  affected,”	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  took	&#13;  that	&#13;  long	&#13;  before	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  share	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  
response	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  “woah,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  it.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  always	&#13;  felt	&#13;  like	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
white	&#13;  elephant	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  room,	&#13;  or	&#13;  rainbow	&#13;  elephant	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  room,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  something	&#13;  
about,	&#13;  my	&#13;  dad	&#13;  asked	&#13;  me	&#13;  one	&#13;  time,	&#13;  “What	&#13;  is	&#13;  69?”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “well,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  described	&#13;  the	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  

2	&#13;  Affirmation	&#13;  was	&#13;  founded	&#13;  in	&#13;  Salt	&#13;  Lake	&#13;  City,	&#13;  Utah,	&#13;  in	&#13;  1977.	&#13;  
3	&#13;  Galatians	&#13;  3.28	&#13;  “There	&#13;  is	&#13;  neither	&#13;  Jew	&#13;  nor	&#13;  Gentile,	&#13;  neither	&#13;  slave	&#13;  nor	&#13;  free,	&#13;  nor	&#13;  is	&#13;  there	&#13;  male	&#13;  or	&#13;  female,	&#13;  for	&#13;  you	&#13;  

are	&#13;  all	&#13;  one	&#13;  in	&#13;  Jesus	&#13;  Christ.”	&#13;  

	&#13;

�position	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  guessed,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “something	&#13;  about	&#13;  
Billy,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “dad,	&#13;  well	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  Billy	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  spent	&#13;  a	&#13;  weekend	&#13;  together	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  gay	&#13;  and	&#13;  
Billy’s	&#13;  gay.	&#13;  “	&#13;  He	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “just	&#13;  never	&#13;  tell.”	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  end	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  conversation.	&#13;  So	&#13;  no	&#13;  empathy,	&#13;  
no	&#13;  support,	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  ask	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  tell,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  family	&#13;  I	&#13;  grew	&#13;  up	&#13;  in.	&#13;  After	&#13;  a	&#13;  suicide	&#13;  and	&#13;  
after	&#13;  bringing	&#13;  my	&#13;  peers	&#13;  home	&#13;  with	&#13;  me	&#13;  from	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  time.	&#13;  Neal’s	&#13;  family	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  welcoming	&#13;  
and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  holiday	&#13;  just	&#13;  to	&#13;  walk	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  house,	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  about	&#13;  me,	&#13;  
they	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  but	&#13;  not	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  family.	&#13;  My	&#13;  sister	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  just	&#13;  seventeen	&#13;  months	&#13;  
younger	&#13;  than	&#13;  me,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  with	&#13;  mom	&#13;  at	&#13;  breakfast,	&#13;  oh	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  six	&#13;  months	&#13;  ago,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
decided	&#13;  “no	&#13;  more	&#13;  doormat.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  from	&#13;  my	&#13;  reading	&#13;  and	&#13;  from	&#13;  my	&#13;  spiritual	&#13;  affirmation	&#13;  and	&#13;  
from	&#13;  reading	&#13;  voluminously—I	&#13;  bet	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  hundred	&#13;  books—and	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  conferences,	&#13;  
that	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  not	&#13;  broken,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  right	&#13;  to	&#13;  explore	&#13;  my	&#13;  identity	&#13;  and	&#13;  to	&#13;  celebrate	&#13;  who	&#13;  
God	&#13;  made	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  just	&#13;  as	&#13;  much	&#13;  as	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  person.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  decided	&#13;  that	&#13;  if	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  a	&#13;  neighbor,	&#13;  a	&#13;  cohort	&#13;  at	&#13;  
work,	&#13;  family,	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  tell	&#13;  it.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  [Floyd]	&#13;  Pride,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  basically	&#13;  
rekindled	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  [Parents,	&#13;  Families,	&#13;  and	&#13;  Friends	&#13;  of	&#13;  Lesbians	&#13;  and	&#13;  Gays]	&#13;  after	&#13;  it	&#13;  had	&#13;  died	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  several	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  important.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  invested	&#13;  
tons	&#13;  of	&#13;  time,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  found	&#13;  some	&#13;  residents	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  [my	&#13;  sister]	&#13;  was	&#13;  real	&#13;  
excited	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about,	&#13;  she	&#13;  has	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  call	&#13;  it	&#13;  a	&#13;  ‘persimmon	&#13;  smile,’	&#13;  twisted	&#13;  up	&#13;  her	&#13;  face,	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  
said	&#13;  “well	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  believe	&#13;  in	&#13;  that,”	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  like	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  spitting	&#13;  out	&#13;  poison.	&#13;  She’s	&#13;  very	&#13;  
religious.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  met	&#13;  other	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  have	&#13;  those	&#13;  feelings	&#13;  that	&#13;  have	&#13;  
expressed	&#13;  those	&#13;  feelings,	&#13;  who	&#13;  have	&#13;  expressed	&#13;  that	&#13;  opinion,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  end	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
later	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Jim,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  proud	&#13;  of	&#13;  you	&#13;  for	&#13;  not	&#13;  jumping	&#13;  down	&#13;  your	&#13;  sister’s	&#13;  
throat.”	&#13;  But	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  conversation,	&#13;  period.	&#13;  So	&#13;  now	&#13;  that	&#13;  mom’s	&#13;  gone,	&#13;  I	&#13;  will	&#13;  be	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  
to	&#13;  my	&#13;  sister,	&#13;  “I	&#13;  understand	&#13;  where	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  coming	&#13;  from	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  felt	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  way.”	&#13;  As	&#13;  a	&#13;  
self-­‐hating	&#13;  gay	&#13;  man,	&#13;  because	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  environment	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  grew	&#13;  up	&#13;  in.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
But	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  learned	&#13;  some	&#13;  other	&#13;  things.	&#13;  Would	&#13;  you	&#13;  be	&#13;  interested?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
16.06	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Yes.	&#13;  So	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  that	&#13;  your	&#13;  family	&#13;  was	&#13;  generally	&#13;  not	&#13;  
necessarily	&#13;  unwelcoming,	&#13;  but	&#13;  not	&#13;  welcoming	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  brought	&#13;  home	&#13;  or	&#13;  
the	&#13;  men	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  brought	&#13;  home…	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  climate	&#13;  of	&#13;  your	&#13;  overall	&#13;  
environment?	&#13;  Where	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  grown	&#13;  up,	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  lived?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
16:25	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Absolutely.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  gay	&#13;  people,	&#13;  except	&#13;  my	&#13;  cousin	&#13;  and	&#13;  even	&#13;  then.	&#13;  Well	&#13;  
there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  community	&#13;  at	&#13;  UNC-­‐G,	&#13;  even	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘70s,	&#13;  because	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  my	&#13;  
graduate	&#13;  degree,	&#13;  in	&#13;  ‘72…	&#13;  1972.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  the	&#13;  professor	&#13;  over	&#13;  the	&#13;  department	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  
and	&#13;  her	&#13;  partner	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  secretary.	&#13;  So	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  visibility	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  but	&#13;  still	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  
few	&#13;  peers	&#13;  growing	&#13;  up,	&#13;  none	&#13;  whatsoever.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:14	&#13;  
	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5	&#13;  

�CA:	&#13;  So,	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  saying	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  your	&#13;  college	&#13;  years,	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  you	&#13;  graduated	&#13;  in	&#13;  1972,	&#13;  
so	&#13;  what	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:21	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  from	&#13;  Graduate	&#13;  school.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:23	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Right.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:25	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:26	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Right,	&#13;  Right.	&#13;  From	&#13;  Graduate	&#13;  school	&#13;  in	&#13;  1972	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  you	&#13;  knowm	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
things	&#13;  happening	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  previously	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  world,	&#13;  so	&#13;  how	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  those	&#13;  
affected	&#13;  you?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:35	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Good	&#13;  question.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  ended	&#13;  in	&#13;  ‘64	&#13;  and	&#13;  Wake	&#13;  Forrest	&#13;  in	&#13;  ’69.	&#13;  I	&#13;  spent	&#13;  
another	&#13;  year	&#13;  getting	&#13;  a	&#13;  Master’s	&#13;  degree	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  graduate	&#13;  in	&#13;  biology.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  
year	&#13;  of	&#13;  Stonewall.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:53	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Right.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:56	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  totally	&#13;  not	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  map.	&#13;  Even	&#13;  though	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  tried	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  people	&#13;  on	&#13;  campus,	&#13;  
they	&#13;  were	&#13;  all	&#13;  basically	&#13;  unpleasant,	&#13;  not	&#13;  supportive;	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  fly	&#13;  was	&#13;  still	&#13;  
determined	&#13;  to	&#13;  be…	&#13;  I	&#13;  pledged	&#13;  a	&#13;  fraternity	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  chorister	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  fraternity	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  
actually	&#13;  found	&#13;  a	&#13;  girl	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  take	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  hotel.	&#13;  	&#13;  And	&#13;  of	&#13;  course,	&#13;  she	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  just	&#13;  as	&#13;  
safe	&#13;  if	&#13;  she	&#13;  had	&#13;  taken	&#13;  her	&#13;  mother	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  hotel,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  distressing	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  
couldn’t	&#13;  understand.	&#13;  	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  disturbed	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  saved	&#13;  my	&#13;  money	&#13;  from	&#13;  
working	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  military	&#13;  academy	&#13;  and	&#13;  oh	&#13;  the	&#13;  young	&#13;  men	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  gorgeous	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  loved	&#13;  
me	&#13;  to	&#13;  death	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  took	&#13;  them	&#13;  all	&#13;  around	&#13;  the	&#13;  country	&#13;  to	&#13;  visit	&#13;  their	&#13;  families,	&#13;  but	&#13;  still	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
totally	&#13;  platonic.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  beyond	&#13;  any	&#13;  solution.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  saved	&#13;  my	&#13;  money	&#13;  from	&#13;  
working	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  military	&#13;  academy.	&#13;  I	&#13;  taught…oh…general	&#13;  biology,	&#13;  anatomy	&#13;  and	&#13;  physiology,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  general	&#13;  science,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  radio	&#13;  club.	&#13;  I	&#13;  bought	&#13;  a	&#13;  bicycle	&#13;  in	&#13;  Paris	&#13;  and	&#13;  cycled	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Normandy	&#13;  and	&#13;  spent	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  cycling	&#13;  through	&#13;  France,	&#13;  and	&#13;  Germany,	&#13;  and	&#13;  Italy	&#13;  and	&#13;  Spain,	&#13;  
Sardinia	&#13;  and	&#13;  Corsica.	&#13;  And	&#13;  worked	&#13;  in	&#13;  Denmark	&#13;  and	&#13;  applied	&#13;  for	&#13;  graduate	&#13;  school	&#13;  from	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6	&#13;  

�Denmark.	&#13;  Trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  milieu	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  white-­‐elephant	&#13;  world	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  have	&#13;  one,	&#13;  well	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  two,	&#13;  very	&#13;  unfortunate	&#13;  experiences,	&#13;  no	&#13;  harm,	&#13;  but	&#13;  total	&#13;  
rejection	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  along	&#13;  the	&#13;  way.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  preached	&#13;  to	&#13;  myself,	&#13;  “if	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  a	&#13;  
relationship	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  community	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  develop	&#13;  it,	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  
bicycler	&#13;  working	&#13;  odd	&#13;  jobs.”	&#13;  
	&#13;  
20:00	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Right	&#13;  
	&#13;  
20:02	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  So	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  plan	&#13;  coming	&#13;  home.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
20.04	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  So	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  your	&#13;  time	&#13;  in	&#13;  Europe	&#13;  helped	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  understand	&#13;  who	&#13;  you	&#13;  
were	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  man	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  more	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  United	&#13;  States	&#13;  or…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
20.15	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  more	&#13;  frustrating	&#13;  to	&#13;  me.	&#13;  Of	&#13;  course	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  everything	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
great	&#13;  adventure,	&#13;  traveling	&#13;  to	&#13;  Chartres,	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Prado,	&#13;  learning	&#13;  Spanish,	&#13;  and	&#13;  getting	&#13;  by	&#13;  
in	&#13;  French,	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  great	&#13;  when	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  24.	&#13;  But	&#13;  no,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  frustrated,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  more	&#13;  determined.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  become	&#13;  more	&#13;  self-­‐reliant	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  
had	&#13;  an	&#13;  affirmation	&#13;  that	&#13;  things	&#13;  were	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  better,	&#13;  without	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  input	&#13;  of	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind.	&#13;  
I	&#13;  still	&#13;  had	&#13;  no	&#13;  counselor	&#13;  or	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  personal	&#13;  contact.	&#13;

CA:	&#13;  So	&#13;  now	&#13;  what	&#13;  brought	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  live	&#13;  now?	&#13;  Would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  that	&#13;  had	&#13;  
any	&#13;  influence	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
21:14	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  move	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  actually.	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Patrick	&#13;  County	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  Ararat,	&#13;  
because	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  the	&#13;  supervisor	&#13;  of	&#13;  Special	&#13;  Ed	&#13;  [education]	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  speech	&#13;  conference	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  told	&#13;  her	&#13;  
you	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  ride	&#13;  a	&#13;  bicycle	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  work	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  place	&#13;  far	&#13;  enough	&#13;  from	&#13;  
Greensboro	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  be	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  parent’s	&#13;  back-­‐pocket,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  go	&#13;  home,	&#13;  
socialize,	&#13;  whatever,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  loved	&#13;  the	&#13;  mountains.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  she	&#13;  knew	&#13;  Dorn	&#13;  Spangler.	&#13;  She	&#13;  said	&#13;  
this	&#13;  is	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  go,	&#13;  Patrick	&#13;  County,	&#13;  well	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  
[counties].	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  got	&#13;  16,000	&#13;  people,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  size	&#13;  as	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  got	&#13;  two	&#13;  stop	&#13;  lights	&#13;  
now,	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  has	&#13;  one.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
[JB addition to transcript: So, I rode my bicycle from Greensboro to Patrick County, liked it, and
took the job as the first speech pathologist in the eight county schools]

	&#13;

�So	&#13;  I	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  Ararat	&#13;  near	&#13;  Peggy’s	&#13;  family	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  second	&#13;  semester	&#13;  screening	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  
kindergarten	&#13;  children	&#13;  for	&#13;  speech,	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  Peggy.	&#13;  She	&#13;  invited	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  her	&#13;  home	&#13;  for	&#13;  
supper	&#13;  that	&#13;  very	&#13;  first	&#13;  day	&#13;  and	&#13;  within	&#13;  six	&#13;  weeks	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  proposed	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  six	&#13;  more	&#13;  weeks	&#13;  we	&#13;  
were	&#13;  married.	&#13;  [JB	&#13;  addition	&#13;  to	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  She	&#13;  proposed	&#13;  to	&#13;  me!]	&#13;  Her	&#13;  family	&#13;  was	&#13;  close	&#13;  by	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Westfield,	&#13;  a	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina	&#13;  farming	&#13;  family.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
22:19	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  So	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  like	&#13;  being	&#13;  married	&#13;  to	&#13;  Peggy?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
22:22	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  we	&#13;  both	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  best	&#13;  of	&#13;  intentions.	&#13;  We	&#13;  both	&#13;  tried	&#13;  really	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  loving.	&#13;  Initially,	&#13;  
we	&#13;  found	&#13;  some	&#13;  physical	&#13;  gratification	&#13;  in	&#13;  each	&#13;  other,	&#13;  but	&#13;  not	&#13;  on	&#13;  our	&#13;  wedding	&#13;  night,	&#13;  which	&#13;  
doesn’t	&#13;  prove	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  child,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  loved	&#13;  Josh	&#13;  beyond	&#13;  measure,	&#13;  but	&#13;  you	&#13;  
know	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  still	&#13;  this	&#13;  huge	&#13;  emptiness.	&#13;  And	&#13;  she	&#13;  got	&#13;  sicker	&#13;  and	&#13;  sicker	&#13;  and	&#13;  hysterectomy	&#13;  
and	&#13;  lost	&#13;  all	&#13;  her	&#13;  femininity	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  tell	&#13;  and	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  touched	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  went	&#13;  
crazy.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  basically	&#13;  living	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  monk,	&#13;  celibate	&#13;  for	&#13;  twenty	&#13;  years.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:15	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Wow.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:16	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:17	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  took	&#13;  up	&#13;  the	&#13;  Shakuhachi	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  meditative	&#13;  instrument	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Japanese	&#13;  
Zen	&#13;  tradition,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  actually	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  play	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  in	&#13;  Washington	&#13;  [D.C.].	&#13;  I	&#13;  played	&#13;  
with	&#13;  them	&#13;  for	&#13;  ten	&#13;  years.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:30	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  And,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  got…	&#13;  you	&#13;  know…	&#13;  go	&#13;  ahead	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  question.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:35	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  no.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  
23:37	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Okay.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:39	&#13;  
	&#13;

�	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  more	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like,	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  living	&#13;  almost	&#13;  
like	&#13;  a	&#13;  monk,	&#13;  so	&#13;  how	&#13;  was	&#13;  that?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:42	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  much	&#13;  celibate.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:45	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  so	&#13;  how	&#13;  that	&#13;  affected	&#13;  on…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
23:48	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  vacuum,	&#13;  emotionally.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  no,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  Mormon	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  Ward	&#13;  Mission	&#13;  Leader,	&#13;  which	&#13;  means	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  charge	&#13;  of	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  young	&#13;  men	&#13;  
[missionaries]	&#13;  that	&#13;  came	&#13;  through.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  Scoutmaster,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  another	&#13;  crop	&#13;  of	&#13;  young	&#13;  
beautiful	&#13;  boys	&#13;  with	&#13;  their	&#13;  families	&#13;  who	&#13;  loved	&#13;  me,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  wild	&#13;  hair,	&#13;  if	&#13;  they	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  
go	&#13;  camping	&#13;  we’d	&#13;  go,	&#13;  every	&#13;  month	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  year	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  camping.	&#13;  I	&#13;  took	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  High-­‐
Adventure	&#13;  Bases.4	&#13;  	&#13;  We	&#13;  did	&#13;  scuba	&#13;  diving	&#13;  in	&#13;  Islamorada	&#13;  [Florida],	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  Philmont	&#13;  
[Philmont	&#13;  Scout	&#13;  Ranch,	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  Mexico],	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  Boundary	&#13;  Waters	&#13;  [on	&#13;  the	&#13;  U.S.	&#13;  Canadian	&#13;  
border]	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  summer	&#13;  and	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Okpik	&#13;  program	&#13;  [same	&#13;  location]	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  winter.	&#13;  25	&#13;  
degrees	&#13;  below	&#13;  zero.	&#13;  They	&#13;  loved	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  death.	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  take	&#13;  individuals;	&#13;  I	&#13;  took	&#13;  my	&#13;  first	&#13;  eagle	&#13;  
scout	&#13;  kayaking	&#13;  through	&#13;  the	&#13;  Everglades.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  his	&#13;  early	&#13;  twenties.	&#13;  	&#13;  I	&#13;  took	&#13;  another,	&#13;  
gorgeous	&#13;  kids	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  loved	&#13;  to	&#13;  death.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  just	&#13;  fallen	&#13;  in	&#13;  love	&#13;  with	&#13;  them,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  totally	&#13;  
platonic.	&#13;  No	&#13;  incidents	&#13;  of	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind.	&#13;  And	&#13;  another	&#13;  boy	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  crazy	&#13;  about	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  
went	&#13;  kayaking	&#13;  through	&#13;  Lake	&#13;  Powell	&#13;  and	&#13;  camped	&#13;  every	&#13;  night	&#13;  together	&#13;  and	&#13;  with	&#13;  no	&#13;  
incidents	&#13;  of	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  another	&#13;  young	&#13;  man,	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Everglades	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  
second	&#13;  time	&#13;  was	&#13;  just…	&#13;  	&#13;  you	&#13;  know.	&#13;  We	&#13;  still	&#13;  communicate	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  them.	&#13;  They’re	&#13;  
faithful	&#13;  Mormons,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  just	&#13;  loved	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  still	&#13;  do.	&#13;  I	&#13;  played	&#13;  violin	&#13;  with	&#13;  one	&#13;  young	&#13;  man	&#13;  
whose	&#13;  mother	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  pianist	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  still	&#13;  after	&#13;  30	&#13;  years	&#13;  we	&#13;  still	&#13;  correspond,	&#13;  and	&#13;  his	&#13;  kids,	&#13;  
you	&#13;  know	&#13;  they	&#13;  send	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  Christmas	&#13;  card	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  really	&#13;  cared	&#13;  for	&#13;  each	&#13;  other.	&#13;  But	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  and,	&#13;  of	&#13;  course,	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  had	&#13;  fierce	&#13;  crushes	&#13;  on	&#13;  kids	&#13;  since	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  grade,	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  with	&#13;  
other	&#13;  boys.	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  still	&#13;  remember	&#13;  their	&#13;  faces	&#13;  and	&#13;  how	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  pined	&#13;  for	&#13;  them,	&#13;  but	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  them	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  never	&#13;  forget	&#13;  the	&#13;  young	&#13;  man	&#13;  who	&#13;  played	&#13;  trumpet,	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  captain	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  football	&#13;  
team,	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  Mr.	&#13;  Everything	&#13;  and	&#13;  his	&#13;  sweetheat	&#13;  was	&#13;  queen	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  ball	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  class	&#13;  
president	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  came	&#13;  over	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Let	&#13;  me	&#13;  help	&#13;  you	&#13;  with	&#13;  this	&#13;  problem.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  
thought	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  melt	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  chair.	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  never	&#13;  forget	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  looking	&#13;  back	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  see	&#13;  
all	&#13;  of	&#13;  these	&#13;  things,	&#13;  but	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  terribly	&#13;  disturbing.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
26:20	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  asked	&#13;  me	&#13;  about	&#13;  Patrick	&#13;  County,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Patrick,	&#13;  married,	&#13;  spent	&#13;  30	&#13;  years	&#13;  
there.	&#13;  After	&#13;  the	&#13;  divorce…	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  bought	&#13;  land	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  a	&#13;  farm	&#13;  and	&#13;  Peggy	&#13;  was	&#13;  sickly	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
4	&#13;  The	&#13;  High-­‐Adventure	&#13;  Bases	&#13;  are	&#13;  various	&#13;  properties	&#13;  across	&#13;  the	&#13;  country	&#13;  operated	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  Boy	&#13;  Scouts	&#13;  of	&#13;  America.	&#13;  

	&#13;  
9	&#13;  

�and	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  raised	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  farm,	&#13;  she	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  anything	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  farm,	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  
even	&#13;  know	&#13;  where	&#13;  it	&#13;  was.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  paid	&#13;  for	&#13;  two	&#13;  pieces	&#13;  of	&#13;  land	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  when	&#13;  it	&#13;  came	&#13;  time	&#13;  for	&#13;  us	&#13;  
to	&#13;  divorce,	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “you	&#13;  take	&#13;  the	&#13;  house,	&#13;  your	&#13;  daddy	&#13;  built	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  take	&#13;  the	&#13;  land	&#13;  if	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  
agreeable.”	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  no-­‐contest	&#13;  separation	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  happened.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  no	&#13;  place	&#13;  to	&#13;  
live.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  farm.	&#13;  	&#13;  So	&#13;  that	&#13;  may	&#13;  not	&#13;  be	&#13;  germane	&#13;  to	&#13;  our	&#13;  conversation,	&#13;  but…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
27:04	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  no.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
27:07	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  So	&#13;  basically	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  five	&#13;  times	&#13;  in	&#13;  four	&#13;  years	&#13;  with	&#13;  everything	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  owned	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
back	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  Volkswagen,	&#13;  from	&#13;  one	&#13;  trailer	&#13;  to	&#13;  another.	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  house	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  
would	&#13;  just	&#13;  stash	&#13;  my	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  there	&#13;  until	&#13;  the	&#13;  roof	&#13;  caved	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  Id	&#13;  move	&#13;  it	&#13;  out.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
27:26	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  nomad,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know.	&#13;  I	&#13;  house	&#13;  sat	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  year,	&#13;  just	&#13;  totally	&#13;  no	&#13;  culture,	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  lost	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  
support	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  Mormons,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  apologize	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  
two-­‐faced	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Oh	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  our	&#13;  meeting.	&#13;  You’ve	&#13;  moved	&#13;  into	&#13;  our	&#13;  area.”	&#13;  	&#13;  
And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “That’s	&#13;  fine,	&#13;  but	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  understand	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  proud	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  man	&#13;  and	&#13;  if	&#13;  
that’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  problem,	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  belong.”	&#13;  	&#13;  They	&#13;  never	&#13;  contacted	&#13;  me	&#13;  again.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  old	&#13;  
and	&#13;  in	&#13;  nine	&#13;  years…	&#13;  well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  into	&#13;  my	&#13;  place	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  day	&#13;  Obama	&#13;  moved	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  White	&#13;  
House,	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  married	&#13;  ’74,	&#13;  and	&#13;  divorced	&#13;  in	&#13;  ‘04.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:17	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  How	&#13;  did	&#13;  Peggy	&#13;  take	&#13;  the	&#13;  divorce?	&#13;  How	&#13;  did	&#13;  people	&#13;  around	&#13;  you	&#13;  react?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:21	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was,	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  vacuum	&#13;  so	&#13;  when	&#13;  this	&#13;  little	&#13;  hole	&#13;  comes	&#13;  in,	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  
[makes	&#13;  explosive	&#13;  sound].	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  complete	&#13;  evacuation	&#13;  from	&#13;  everything	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  environment.	&#13;  
There’s	&#13;  no	&#13;  church,	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  see	&#13;  the	&#13;  people,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  continuing	&#13;  contact,	&#13;  which	&#13;  showed	&#13;  
me	&#13;  that	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  were	&#13;  based	&#13;  on	&#13;  an	&#13;  ideology	&#13;  and	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  genuine	&#13;  friendship,	&#13;  
because	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  not	&#13;  be	&#13;  myself.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  really,	&#13;  I	&#13;  date	&#13;  my	&#13;  birth	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  divorce.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  a	&#13;  totally	&#13;  
different	&#13;  person	&#13;  than	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  then.	&#13;  Completely	&#13;  different	&#13;  person.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  I	&#13;  spoke	&#13;  to	&#13;  faculties	&#13;  
for	&#13;  nursing	&#13;  homes,	&#13;  nursing	&#13;  staff,	&#13;  delivered	&#13;  workshops	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  speech	&#13;  pathologist.	&#13;  But	&#13;  not	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  
whole	&#13;  person.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  visit	&#13;  the	&#13;  MCC	&#13;  [Metropolitan	&#13;  Community	&#13;  Church]	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Winston	&#13;  [North	&#13;  Carolina],	&#13;  I	&#13;  played	&#13;  the	&#13;  piano	&#13;  and	&#13;  organ.	&#13;  I	&#13;  played	&#13;  my	&#13;  violin	&#13;  for	&#13;  them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  began	&#13;  
to	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  not	&#13;  just	&#13;  among	&#13;  LGBT	&#13;  people,	&#13;  but	&#13;  express	&#13;  myself.	&#13;  Sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  an	&#13;  indication	&#13;  of	&#13;  
that,	&#13;  no	&#13;  wanting	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  seen,	&#13;  feeling	&#13;  that	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  worthy	&#13;  of	&#13;  any	&#13;  influence	&#13;  or	&#13;  a	&#13;  social	&#13;  
significance,	&#13;  I	&#13;  avoided	&#13;  colors.	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  wear	&#13;  any	&#13;  bright	&#13;  colors.	&#13;  Especially	&#13;  I	&#13;  hated	&#13;  
blue,	&#13;  because	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  male	&#13;  color	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  not	&#13;  have.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  my	&#13;  enemy	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  
couldn’t	&#13;  be	&#13;  boy-­‐blue,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  hated	&#13;  it.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  made	&#13;  this	&#13;  [JB	&#13;  shows	&#13;  a	&#13;  necklace	&#13;  made	&#13;  of	&#13;  blue	&#13;  beads]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
10	&#13;  

�after	&#13;  mama	&#13;  died,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  to	&#13;  myself	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  as	&#13;  much	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  male	&#13;  as	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  male	&#13;  
needs	&#13;  to	&#13;  be.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  adopted	&#13;  blue.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  got	&#13;  blue	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  got	&#13;  red.	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  
think	&#13;  “what	&#13;  difference	&#13;  does	&#13;  color	&#13;  make?”	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  color	&#13;  means	&#13;  everything	&#13;  to	&#13;  me.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
And	&#13;  so	&#13;  after	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  years,	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  retreat	&#13;  in	&#13;  Baltimore,	&#13;  near	&#13;  Maryland,	&#13;  that	&#13;  Affirmation	&#13;  
had	&#13;  sponsored	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  gentlemen	&#13;  from	&#13;  Provo,	&#13;  Utah	&#13;  came.	&#13;  Neither	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  knew	&#13;  anyone	&#13;  
there	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  turns	&#13;  out	&#13;  that	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  former	&#13;  department	&#13;  head,	&#13;  the	&#13;  department	&#13;  of	&#13;  Art	&#13;  and	&#13;  
Design	&#13;  at	&#13;  [the	&#13;  University	&#13;  of]	&#13;  California-­‐Irvine	&#13;  for	&#13;  14	&#13;  years.	&#13;  He	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  multimillion-­‐dollar	&#13;  
budget,	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  traveled	&#13;  all	&#13;  around	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  with	&#13;  his	&#13;  students,	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  Mormon,	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  
grandfather.	&#13;  	&#13;  We	&#13;  became	&#13;  partners.	&#13;  He	&#13;  had	&#13;  severe	&#13;  kidney	&#13;  issues,	&#13;  from	&#13;  taking	&#13;  too	&#13;  much	&#13;  
ibuprofen.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  together	&#13;  147	&#13;  days	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  his	&#13;  pallbearer.	&#13;  So	&#13;  John	&#13;  gave	&#13;  me	&#13;  the	&#13;  
scholastic,	&#13;  artistic	&#13;  benchmark	&#13;  for	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  skills.	&#13;  And	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  Jim,	&#13;  “you	&#13;  have	&#13;  innately	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  
have	&#13;  spent	&#13;  a	&#13;  lifetime	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  teach	&#13;  my	&#13;  students.	&#13;  Your	&#13;  perception	&#13;  of	&#13;  color	&#13;  and	&#13;  
proportional	&#13;  form	&#13;  and	&#13;  aesthetic	&#13;  sensitivities	&#13;  are	&#13;  way	&#13;  beyond	&#13;  anything	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  
encounter.”	&#13;  Only	&#13;  he	&#13;  could	&#13;  say	&#13;  that.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  because….	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  constant	&#13;  
spin.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  older	&#13;  than	&#13;  me,	&#13;  older	&#13;  than	&#13;  I	&#13;  was,	&#13;  but	&#13;  um….	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  that	&#13;  really	&#13;  mountaintop	&#13;  
experience	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  helped	&#13;  through	&#13;  his	&#13;  fantastic	&#13;  grasp	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  four	&#13;  extremely	&#13;  successful	&#13;  
children	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  wife	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  sculptress	&#13;  and	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  institution	&#13;  in	&#13;  her	&#13;  own	&#13;  [right]..	&#13;  So	&#13;  
John	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  anemic,	&#13;  he	&#13;  went	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  sort	&#13;  through	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  original	&#13;  art	&#13;  that	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  acquired	&#13;  
over	&#13;  the	&#13;  years.	&#13;  A	&#13;  sculptor,	&#13;  Trevor	&#13;  Southey,	&#13;  was	&#13;  his	&#13;  good	&#13;  friend.	&#13;  And	&#13;  he	&#13;  asked	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  please	&#13;  
bundle	&#13;  up	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  cared	&#13;  for,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  home	&#13;  with	&#13;  us.	&#13;  And	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  come	&#13;  from	&#13;  Provo	&#13;  [JB	&#13;  
added	&#13;  to	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  to his apartment in Provo to pack up since we had rented the cabin in
Meadows of Dan, Virginia] and	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  cabin	&#13;  together	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  our	&#13;  Blue	&#13;  
Heaven.6	&#13;  	&#13;  So,	&#13;  well,	&#13;  you	&#13;  probably	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  song.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
33:11	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  No	&#13;  
	&#13;  
33:16	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  John	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  mountaintop	&#13;  experience	&#13;  for	&#13;  you…	&#13;  	&#13;

CA:	&#13;  So	&#13;  looking	&#13;  back	&#13;  on	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  these	&#13;  experiences	&#13;  in	&#13;  your	&#13;  life,	&#13;  how	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  these	&#13;  
people	&#13;  have	&#13;  shaped	&#13;  you	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  you	&#13;  are?	&#13;  And	&#13;  not	&#13;  only	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  
mentioned,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  society	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  as	&#13;  well?	&#13;

�	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Ok.	&#13;  I	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  put	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  pieces	&#13;  together	&#13;  for	&#13;  you.	&#13;  So	&#13;  John	&#13;  died,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  worse	&#13;  off	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  
way,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  possible,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  exist	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  getting	&#13;  older	&#13;  and	&#13;  
the	&#13;  quality	&#13;  of	&#13;  person	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  in	&#13;  John	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  never	&#13;  met	&#13;  before	&#13;  and	&#13;  had	&#13;  no	&#13;  hope	&#13;  of	&#13;  ever	&#13;  
meeting	&#13;  again.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  party,	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  dance,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  always	&#13;  go	&#13;  by	&#13;  myself.	&#13;  Like	&#13;  I	&#13;  
would	&#13;  go	&#13;  from	&#13;  Ararat,	&#13;  get	&#13;  on	&#13;  [Interstate]	&#13;  77	&#13;  and	&#13;  drive	&#13;  two	&#13;  hours	&#13;  to	&#13;  Charlotte,	&#13;  three	&#13;  hours,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  dance	&#13;  until	&#13;  one	&#13;  o’clock	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  morning	&#13;  and	&#13;  get	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  car	&#13;  and	&#13;  drive	&#13;  home,	&#13;  by	&#13;  myself.	&#13;  
That	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  end.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  social	&#13;  life.	&#13;  Or	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  get	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  car,	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  Pier	&#13;  21	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  in	&#13;  Greensboro,	&#13;  and	&#13;  dance	&#13;  by	&#13;  myself	&#13;  for	&#13;  three	&#13;  hours,	&#13;  get	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  car	&#13;  and	&#13;  drive	&#13;  home.	&#13;  
Because	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  interested	&#13;  in	&#13;  one-­‐night	&#13;  stands,	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  no	&#13;  confidence	&#13;  in	&#13;  myself,	&#13;  sexually.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  risk	&#13;  some	&#13;  stupid	&#13;  STD	&#13;  [sexually	&#13;  transmitted	&#13;  disease],	&#13;  so	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  
I	&#13;  could	&#13;  see,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  was,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  under	&#13;  a	&#13;  rock.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  much	&#13;  written	&#13;  off	&#13;  the	&#13;  human	&#13;  race.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
Then,	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  rash	&#13;  of	&#13;  suicides	&#13;  in	&#13;  Minnesota	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Anoka-­‐Hennepin7	&#13;  school	&#13;  system	&#13;  
where	&#13;  Michele	&#13;  Bachmann	&#13;  and	&#13;  her	&#13;  lovely	&#13;  husband	&#13;  who	&#13;  had	&#13;  promoted	&#13;  reparative	&#13;  therapy.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  it	&#13;  hit	&#13;  me	&#13;  like	&#13;  a…	&#13;  it	&#13;  completely	&#13;  wiped	&#13;  me	&#13;  out.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so,	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  this	&#13;  message	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  
me	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  literally	&#13;  knocked	&#13;  me	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  bed.	&#13;  The	&#13;  message	&#13;  was	&#13;  “you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  voice	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  
not	&#13;  using	&#13;  it!”	&#13;  And	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  humbling,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  quit	&#13;  the	&#13;  pity	&#13;  party	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  quit	&#13;  the	&#13;  wound	&#13;  
licking,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  myself	&#13;  dressed	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  put	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  tie	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  fundamentalist	&#13;  church	&#13;  
at	&#13;  the	&#13;  end	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  driveway	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  questions	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  the	&#13;  movie	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  
workshops	&#13;  and	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  available,	&#13;  I	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  read	&#13;  books,	&#13;  and	&#13;  to	&#13;  make	&#13;  myself	&#13;  an	&#13;  
instrument	&#13;  for	&#13;  conversation	&#13;  to	&#13;  open	&#13;  minds,	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  questions	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  way	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  [a]	&#13;  
neighbor	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  constructive	&#13;  way	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  homophobic	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  living	&#13;  with.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
I	&#13;  showed	&#13;  this	&#13;  very	&#13;  typical	&#13;  illiterate—computer-­‐illiterate,	&#13;  basically	&#13;  he	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  read—Baptist	&#13;  
minister	&#13;  a	&#13;  DVD	&#13;  called	&#13;  For	&#13;  the	&#13;  Bible	&#13;  Tells	&#13;  Me	&#13;  So	&#13;  which	&#13;  chronicled	&#13;  Gene	&#13;  Robinson’s	&#13;  life,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
the	&#13;  Gephardts,	&#13;  their	&#13;  gay	&#13;  daughter,	&#13;  and	&#13;  many	&#13;  others.	&#13;  Desmond	&#13;  Tutu	&#13;  speaks	&#13;  on	&#13;  it,	&#13;  Nelson	&#13;  
Mandela,	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  documentary.	&#13;  It	&#13;  talks	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  biological	&#13;  ideology	&#13;  of	&#13;  sexual	&#13;  
orientation.	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  online	&#13;  and	&#13;  showed	&#13;  him	&#13;  the	&#13;  testimony,	&#13;  that—I	&#13;  think	&#13;  his	&#13;  name	&#13;  is	&#13;  Burns	&#13;  
[Joel	&#13;  Burns,	&#13;  City	&#13;  Council	&#13;  member	&#13;  in	&#13;  Fort	&#13;  Worth,	&#13;  Texas]	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  chide	&#13;  myself	&#13;  for	&#13;  not	&#13;  being	&#13;  
able	&#13;  to	&#13;  remember—but	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  Houston	&#13;  City	&#13;  Council	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  showed	&#13;  
the	&#13;  pictures	&#13;  of	&#13;  these	&#13;  kids	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  abused	&#13;  and	&#13;  bullied	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  took	&#13;  their	&#13;  lives.	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  never	&#13;  
forget	&#13;  the	&#13;  comment	&#13;  that	&#13;  this	&#13;  man’s	&#13;  wife	&#13;  made	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  asked	&#13;  her	&#13;  if/how	&#13;  did	&#13;  she	&#13;  relate	&#13;  
to	&#13;  the	&#13;  suicides	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  pursed	&#13;  up	&#13;  her	&#13;  mouth	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  gave	&#13;  me	&#13;  this	&#13;  condescending…“Those	&#13;  
parents	&#13;  should	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  more	&#13;  schooled	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  gospel.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  basically	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  laying	&#13;  their	&#13;  
sexuality	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  parent’s	&#13;  feet	&#13;  without	&#13;  any	&#13;  understanding	&#13;  that	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  kids	&#13;  were	&#13;  
bullied	&#13;  because	&#13;  their	&#13;  parents	&#13;  were	&#13;  same	&#13;  sex.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  committed	&#13;  suicide	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  
were	&#13;  perceived	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  actually…	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  straight	&#13;  kids.	&#13;  So	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  
misinformation	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  comment	&#13;  just	&#13;  drilled	&#13;  into	&#13;  me	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  assumptions	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  
misunderstandings	&#13;  that	&#13;  could	&#13;  bring	&#13;  her	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  “a	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  their	&#13;  righteousness”	&#13;  
that	&#13;  caused	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  be...	&#13;  And	&#13;  of	&#13;  course,	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  parents	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  clue.	&#13;  They	&#13;  came	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
7	&#13;  JB	&#13;  additional	&#13;  note:	&#13;  Anoka,	&#13;  Minnesota.	&#13;  Eight	&#13;  students	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Anoka-­‐Hennepin	&#13;  school	&#13;  district	&#13;  committed	&#13;  suicide	&#13;  

in	&#13;  a	&#13;  span	&#13;  of	&#13;  two	&#13;  years	&#13;  (2009-­‐2011).	&#13;  A	&#13;  large	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  these	&#13;  students	&#13;  were	&#13;  known	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  members	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  LGBTQ	&#13;  
community,	&#13;  by	&#13;  family	&#13;  and	&#13;  friends	&#13;  and	&#13;  struggled	&#13;  with	&#13;  harassment.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Anoka-­‐Hennepin	&#13;  school	&#13;  system	&#13;  has	&#13;  since	&#13;  
been	&#13;  scrutinized	&#13;  for	&#13;  their	&#13;  lack	&#13;  of	&#13;  involvement	&#13;  concerning	&#13;  bullying	&#13;  against	&#13;  members	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  LGBTQ	&#13;  community.	&#13;  	&#13;  

	&#13;  
12	&#13;  

�home	&#13;  and	&#13;  found	&#13;  their	&#13;  kid	&#13;  dead;	&#13;  they	&#13;  never	&#13;  knew	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  problem.	&#13;  So	&#13;  that	&#13;  really	&#13;  
fueled	&#13;  what’s	&#13;  led	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  new	&#13;  life	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  research	&#13;  support	&#13;  organizations,	&#13;  I	&#13;  
had	&#13;  heard	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  a	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  I	&#13;  researched	&#13;  it,	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  online,	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  
was	&#13;  no	&#13;  record	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  And	&#13;  just	&#13;  by	&#13;  talking	&#13;  to	&#13;  people,	&#13;  “Oh	&#13;  yes.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Quakers	&#13;  did	&#13;  it.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  
know	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  group,	&#13;  where	&#13;  is	&#13;  it?	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  find	&#13;  it,	&#13;  they	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  web.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  
finally	&#13;  found	&#13;  it.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  goldmine.	&#13;  They	&#13;  accepted	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  Kim	&#13;  [O’Donnell],8	&#13;  I	&#13;  talked	&#13;  
about	&#13;  PFLAG.	&#13;  They	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  sponsor	&#13;  it,	&#13;  but	&#13;  individuals	&#13;  there	&#13;  had	&#13;  sponsored	&#13;  it	&#13;  
and	&#13;  others.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  asked	&#13;  if	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  web	&#13;  presence	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  now	&#13;  Floyd’s	&#13;  Friends	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  
is	&#13;  listed	&#13;  with	&#13;  gaychurch.org	&#13;  and	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  listed	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  cloud	&#13;  and	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  listed	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
yellow	&#13;  pages	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  great.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  several	&#13;  lesbians	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  group.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  
from	&#13;  there	&#13;  I	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  questions	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  young	&#13;  fellow	&#13;  and	&#13;  his	&#13;  mother	&#13;  who	&#13;  really	&#13;  
wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  start	&#13;  PFLAG,	&#13;  so	&#13;  the	&#13;  three	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  started	&#13;  over.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
39:30	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Wow.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
39:32	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  that,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  drive	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  because	&#13;  my	&#13;  work	&#13;  is	&#13;  in	&#13;  Stuart,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
it’s	&#13;  twenty	&#13;  miles	&#13;  both	&#13;  ways,	&#13;  a	&#13;  thirty	&#13;  minutes’	&#13;  drive.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  as	&#13;  good	&#13;  one	&#13;  as	&#13;  the	&#13;  other.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
I	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  the	&#13;  president	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Ruritan	&#13;  club,	&#13;  well	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  stodgiest,	&#13;  most	&#13;  conservative,	&#13;  
most	&#13;  entrenched,	&#13;  traditional	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  closed	&#13;  minded	&#13;  people,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  what	&#13;  keeps	&#13;  Meadows	&#13;  of	&#13;  
Dan	&#13;  isolated	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘50s,	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  fine.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  their	&#13;  choice.	&#13;  	&#13;  And	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  folks,	&#13;  you	&#13;  
know…	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  isolated,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  lumped	&#13;  them	&#13;  too	&#13;  generally…	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  
perceptive,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  buck	&#13;  the	&#13;  crowd.	&#13;  In	&#13;  fact,	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  members	&#13;  left	&#13;  
when	&#13;  I	&#13;  became	&#13;  president	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  knew	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  gay.	&#13;  	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  endured	&#13;  that	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  and	&#13;  
then	&#13;  I	&#13;  withdrew	&#13;  my	&#13;  membership	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  I	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  where	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  make	&#13;  a	&#13;  difference.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
now,	&#13;  four	&#13;  years	&#13;  later	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  looking	&#13;  into	&#13;  grants,	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  looking	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  asked	&#13;  
them	&#13;  to	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  finally	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  saying,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  fine.	&#13;  
Everybody	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  own	&#13;  time.	&#13;  But	&#13;  in	&#13;  those	&#13;  four	&#13;  years	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  had,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  planning	&#13;  our	&#13;  fourth	&#13;  
Pride.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  Diversity	&#13;  Club,	&#13;  the	&#13;  faculty	&#13;  advisor,	&#13;  Wednesday,	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  (I	&#13;  
forgot	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  Madison	&#13;  while	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  out).	&#13;  And	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  offering	&#13;  a	&#13;  thousand	&#13;  dollar	&#13;  
scholarship	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspaper	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  had	&#13;  folks	&#13;  from	&#13;  Equality	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  
come	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  Hampton	&#13;  Roads	&#13;  has	&#13;  always	&#13;  held	&#13;  their	&#13;  huge	&#13;  multimillion-­‐dollar	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  
weekend,	&#13;  but	&#13;  this	&#13;  year	&#13;  the	&#13;  town	&#13;  father	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “You’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  your	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  18th.”	&#13;  
That	&#13;  leaves	&#13;  our	&#13;  weekend	&#13;  open	&#13;  so	&#13;  Equality	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  is	&#13;  coming	&#13;  en	&#13;  masse	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  will	&#13;  have	&#13;  
more	&#13;  outside	&#13;  presence	&#13;  to	&#13;  help	&#13;  us.	&#13;  	&#13;

�CA:	&#13;  And	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  excellent	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  really	&#13;  done	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  for	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  and	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  
building	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  now	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  news	&#13;  as	&#13;  an	&#13;  advocate	&#13;  basically	&#13;  for	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
rights.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  online	&#13;  and	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  there.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
41:46	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Okay,	&#13;  Facebook	&#13;  counts	&#13;  as	&#13;  News?	&#13;  [Jim	&#13;  laughs]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
41:48	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Yes!	&#13;  It	&#13;  does.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
41:50	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  we	&#13;  had,	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  given	&#13;  it	&#13;  three	&#13;  times,	&#13;  prizes	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  Mardi	&#13;  Gras	&#13;  [JB	&#13;  added	&#13;  to	&#13;

know,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  the	&#13;  wallflower.	&#13;  I	&#13;  still	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  feel	&#13;  comfortable	&#13;  speaking	&#13;  before	&#13;  people	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  this	&#13;  
Floyd	&#13;  PFLAG,	&#13;  my	&#13;  secretary	&#13;  left	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  one	&#13;  there,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  supply	&#13;  the	&#13;  prizes	&#13;  every	&#13;  
year	&#13;  anyhow	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  [imitating	&#13;  an	&#13;  announcer’s	&#13;  voice]	&#13;  “Floyyyd	&#13;  PFLAG,	&#13;  let	&#13;  me	&#13;  hear	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  
Floyd!”	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  Banksy	&#13;  character,	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  about	&#13;  Banksy?	&#13;  9	&#13;  
	&#13;  
42:22	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  [mhmm].	&#13;  
	&#13;  
42:23	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  You	&#13;  are	&#13;  so	&#13;  cool.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  just	&#13;  come	&#13;  from	&#13;  Israel	&#13;  and	&#13;  Pakistan	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  
championed,	&#13;  I	&#13;  call	&#13;  it	&#13;  the	&#13;  bouquet	&#13;  thrower.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  that?	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  was.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  huge	&#13;  
bouquet	&#13;  of	&#13;  flowers	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  ask	&#13;  them,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  interact,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  
cool,	&#13;  and	&#13;  if	&#13;  they	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  who	&#13;  Banksy	&#13;  was,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  their	&#13;  problem.	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Who	&#13;  can	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  
my	&#13;  character?!”	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  knew	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  So…it	&#13;  went	&#13;  well.	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  contest	&#13;  and	&#13;  
I	&#13;  narrated	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  huge	&#13;  thing	&#13;  for	&#13;  me,	&#13;  by	&#13;  myself.	&#13;  To	&#13;  stand	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  say	&#13;  “Yes!”	&#13;  and	&#13;  [do	&#13;  it	&#13;  
alone].	&#13;  You	&#13;  have	&#13;  open	&#13;  way	&#13;  here,	&#13;  fill	&#13;  it.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  been	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you	&#13;  about	&#13;  
visiting	&#13;  this	&#13;  Seventh	&#13;  Adventists10,	&#13;  the	&#13;  Jehovah’s	&#13;  Witnesses,	&#13;  the	&#13;  two	&#13;  Black	&#13;  churches,	&#13;  all	&#13;  with	&#13;  
very	&#13;  positive	&#13;  responses	&#13;  and	&#13;  compliments	&#13;  and	&#13;  “come	&#13;  back,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  sung	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  choirs.	&#13;  In	&#13;  
the	&#13;  two	&#13;  years	&#13;  that	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  visiting	&#13;  the	&#13;  different	&#13;  congregations	&#13;  and	&#13;  now	&#13;  another	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  
[regional	&#13;  chapter]	&#13;  has	&#13;  asked	&#13;  me	&#13;  about	&#13;  my	&#13;  work	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  churches	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  she	&#13;  says,	&#13;  “Jim,	&#13;  we	&#13;  
are	&#13;  People	&#13;  of	&#13;  Faith	&#13;  for	&#13;  Equality	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  Robin	&#13;  Gorsline	&#13;  came	&#13;  up,	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  
founder	&#13;  of	&#13;  that,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  our	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  two	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago.	&#13;  We	&#13;  went	&#13;  and	&#13;  delivered	&#13;  a	&#13;  letter	&#13;  
to	&#13;  the	&#13;  clerk	&#13;  of	&#13;  court	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  delivered	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  front	&#13;  of	&#13;  WBDJ	&#13;  camera,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  “Who	&#13;  is	&#13;  
that?”	&#13;  And	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  like…	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  says,	&#13;  “Jim	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  two	&#13;  responses	&#13;  that	&#13;  you’ll	&#13;  get,	&#13;  one	&#13;  or	&#13;  two:	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  

9	&#13;  Banksy	&#13;  is	&#13;  an	&#13;  English-­‐based	&#13;  graffiti	&#13;  artist,	&#13;  political	&#13;  activist,	&#13;  and	&#13;  film	&#13;  director	&#13;  of	&#13;  unverified	&#13;  identity.	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;  
14	&#13;  

�you’ll	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  clear	&#13;  welcome	&#13;  or	&#13;  you’ll	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  deer	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  headlights.”	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  guess	&#13;  what	&#13;  
we	&#13;  had?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
44:06	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  What’d	&#13;  you	&#13;  have?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
44:07	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  [Jim	&#13;  laughs]	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  deer	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  headlights!	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  standing	&#13;  there	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  Boss	&#13;  Hogg	&#13;  
frozen	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  wall…it	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  funny.	&#13;  The	&#13;  funny	&#13;  thing	&#13;  was	&#13;  he	&#13;  knew	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  coming.	&#13;  He	&#13;  had	&#13;  
worn	&#13;  a	&#13;  purple	&#13;  shirt	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  welcoming	&#13;  and	&#13;  affirming	&#13;  because	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  wear	&#13;  a	&#13;  pink	&#13;  shirt	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever…	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  just,	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  deer	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  headlights.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  
so	&#13;  cool.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
So	&#13;  Robin	&#13;  has	&#13;  retired	&#13;  with	&#13;  his	&#13;  partner	&#13;  Jonathon.	&#13;  Others	&#13;  have	&#13;  taken	&#13;  over,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  him	&#13;  and	&#13;  
we	&#13;  were	&#13;  good	&#13;  buddies.	&#13;  So	&#13;  folks	&#13;  have	&#13;  added	&#13;  People	&#13;  of	&#13;  Faith	&#13;  for	&#13;  Equality	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Equality	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  as	&#13;  another	&#13;  group,	&#13;  a	&#13;  subgroup.	&#13;  	&#13;  So	&#13;  now	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  asking	&#13;  me	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  
doing	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  saying,	&#13;  well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Reformation	&#13;  Project,	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  
Matthew	&#13;  Vines’	&#13;  brainchild.	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  24	&#13;  year	&#13;  [old]	&#13;  Harvard	&#13;  dropout	&#13;  who	&#13;  wrote	&#13;  a	&#13;  book.11	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  
haven’t	&#13;  seen	&#13;  it…	&#13;  Have	&#13;  you	&#13;  seen	&#13;  it?	&#13;  So	&#13;  he	&#13;  recruits	&#13;  these	&#13;  world	&#13;  class	&#13;  people	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  and	&#13;  
speak:	&#13;  Allyson	&#13;  Robinson,	&#13;  a	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  [woman],	&#13;  a	&#13;  superb	&#13;  speaker,	&#13;  a	&#13;  minister;	&#13;  and	&#13;  David	&#13;  
Gushee	&#13;  who	&#13;  teaches	&#13;  at	&#13;  Mercer,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  president	&#13;  now	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Evangelical	&#13;  Society	&#13;  of	&#13;  
America	&#13;  or	&#13;  some,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  big	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  know,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  friends	&#13;  on	&#13;  
Facebook.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  two	&#13;  of	&#13;  their	&#13;  conferences	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  purpose	&#13;  of	&#13;  conferences	&#13;  is	&#13;  to	&#13;  
school	&#13;  yourself.	&#13;  We	&#13;  have	&#13;  role-­‐playing,	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  the	&#13;  evangelical,	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  
give	&#13;  me	&#13;  this	&#13;  pushback,	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  quote	&#13;  the	&#13;  scriptures,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  take	&#13;  a	&#13;  positive	&#13;  
response.	&#13;  We	&#13;  have	&#13;  these	&#13;  workshops	&#13;  to	&#13;  learn	&#13;  the	&#13;  facts.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
45:55	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Right.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
45:57	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  through	&#13;  that,	&#13;  at	&#13;  some	&#13;  great	&#13;  expense	&#13;  to	&#13;  myself,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  Atlanta	&#13;  and	&#13;  
Washington	&#13;  [D.C.].	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  far	&#13;  away.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  listening	&#13;  to	&#13;  this	&#13;  
inner	&#13;  teacher	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  spirit	&#13;  that	&#13;  knocked	&#13;  me	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  bed	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  voice”	&#13;  
it’s	&#13;  so	&#13;  very	&#13;  tender	&#13;  to	&#13;  remember	&#13;  that.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  ever	&#13;  really	&#13;  know	&#13;  where	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  go,	&#13;  
or	&#13;  who	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  clear	&#13;  direction.	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;  
15	&#13;  

�CA:	&#13;  Which	&#13;  is	&#13;  absolutely	&#13;  amazing;	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  that	&#13;  is….	&#13;  
	&#13;  
46:38	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  You	&#13;  ask	&#13;  Kim,	&#13;  she	&#13;  went	&#13;  with	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Seventh-­‐Day	&#13;  Adventist	&#13;  [congregation].	&#13;  
	&#13;  
46:43	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  make	&#13;  sure	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  her.	&#13;  In	&#13;  her	&#13;  interview.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
46:45	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  that’d	&#13;  be	&#13;  cool.	&#13;  She	&#13;  would,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  she’d	&#13;  enjoy	&#13;  telling	&#13;  you.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
46:47	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  love	&#13;  to	&#13;  hear	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
46:48	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
46:	&#13;  49	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  my	&#13;  final	&#13;  question,	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  final	&#13;  questions	&#13;  for	&#13;  you	&#13;  is	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  done	&#13;  so	&#13;  
much	&#13;  to	&#13;  build	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  for	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  come	&#13;  such	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  way.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
how	&#13;  is	&#13;  it	&#13;  advocating	&#13;  for	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  Rights	&#13;  in	&#13;  such	&#13;  a	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  area?	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  you…it’s	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  
its	&#13;  rough	&#13;  patches	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  sure	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  the	&#13;  man	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  job.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
47:15	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  in	&#13;  learning	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  truth	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  them	&#13;  at	&#13;  one	&#13;  time.	&#13;  To	&#13;  consider	&#13;  myself	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  shoes	&#13;  
and	&#13;  to	&#13;  not	&#13;  engage	&#13;  in	&#13;  an	&#13;  emotional	&#13;  ping-­‐pong	&#13;  match,	&#13;  and	&#13;  never	&#13;  bash	&#13;  scriptures,	&#13;  but	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  
common	&#13;  ground	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  passing	&#13;  peer.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  afraid	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  a	&#13;  question.	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  give	&#13;  you	&#13;  one	&#13;  
little	&#13;  example:	&#13;  I	&#13;  decided	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  out,	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet	&#13;  people,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  
chorus…	&#13;  “Hello,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  live	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  beautiful	&#13;  farm.	&#13;  Have	&#13;  you	&#13;  seen	&#13;  pictures	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  place?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
47:58:	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Yes,	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  beautiful.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
47:59	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  leave	&#13;  the	&#13;  place.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  you	&#13;  love	&#13;  to	&#13;  sing,	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  
community	&#13;  chorus.”	&#13;  Who	&#13;  do	&#13;  I	&#13;  meet?	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  in	&#13;  this	&#13;  choir	&#13;  practice.	&#13;  She	&#13;  comes	&#13;  
in.	&#13;  “Hello,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  an	&#13;  alto…da	&#13;  da	&#13;  da.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  meet	&#13;  her	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  grocery	&#13;  store	&#13;  that	&#13;  very	&#13;  night,	&#13;  the	&#13;  very	&#13;  
first	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  ever	&#13;  met	&#13;  her.	&#13;  	&#13;  “Well,	&#13;  gee,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  met	&#13;  you,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  cool,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  how	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  
	&#13;  
16	&#13;  

�like	&#13;  the	&#13;  chorus?”	&#13;  “How	&#13;  long	&#13;  have	&#13;  you	&#13;  been	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  learned	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  introduce…	&#13;  “you	&#13;  
know	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  the	&#13;  president	&#13;  of	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  PFLAG.”	&#13;  “What’s	&#13;  that?”	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  oldest	&#13;  support	&#13;  group	&#13;  we	&#13;  
have	&#13;  for	&#13;  LGBT	&#13;  people.”	&#13;  “Oh,	&#13;  oh	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  so	&#13;  sorry;	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  straight	&#13;  to	&#13;  hell.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  
said	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  heard	&#13;  that	&#13;  feeling	&#13;  expressed	&#13;  before,	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  about	&#13;  yourself.”	&#13;  “Well,	&#13;  
I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  professor	&#13;  of	&#13;  biology	&#13;  at	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  universities	&#13;  in	&#13;  California	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  retired…”	&#13;  “Did	&#13;  
you	&#13;  realize,	&#13;  have	&#13;  you	&#13;  ever	&#13;  heard	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  incidence	&#13;  of	&#13;  left	&#13;  handedness	&#13;  is	&#13;  40%	&#13;  greater	&#13;  in	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
men?”	&#13;  “You	&#13;  show	&#13;  me	&#13;  the	&#13;  proof!	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  the	&#13;  scientific	&#13;  evidence!”	&#13;  “I’d	&#13;  love	&#13;  to	&#13;  share	&#13;  
some	&#13;  things	&#13;  with	&#13;  you.”	&#13;  So.	&#13;  Hello?	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  resources?	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  book,	&#13;  written	&#13;  by	&#13;  
a	&#13;  law	&#13;  student	&#13;  from	&#13;  BYU	&#13;  [Brigham	&#13;  Young	&#13;  University],	&#13;  and	&#13;  being	&#13;  Mormon	&#13;  that	&#13;  really	&#13;  rang	&#13;  a	&#13;  
bell.	&#13;  “Did	&#13;  he	&#13;  get	&#13;  excommunicated?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “No	&#13;  actually,	&#13;  he	&#13;  didn’t.”	&#13;  He	&#13;  is	&#13;  now,	&#13;  because	&#13;  he	&#13;  
chose	&#13;  to	&#13;  stand	&#13;  up,	&#13;  but	&#13;  not	&#13;  when	&#13;  he	&#13;  wrote	&#13;  the	&#13;  book.	&#13;  A	&#13;  straight	&#13;  BYU	&#13;  student’s	&#13;  perspective	&#13;  on	&#13;  
homosexuality.	&#13;  Homosexuality:	&#13;  a	&#13;  straight	&#13;  BYU	&#13;  student’s	&#13;  perspective.12	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  got	&#13;  574	&#13;  
references.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
49:32	&#13;  
	&#13;  
It’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  brilliant	&#13;  work.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  it	&#13;  spiral	&#13;  bound	&#13;  and	&#13;  enlarged	&#13;  and	&#13;  gave	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  our	&#13;  representative	&#13;  
Morgan	&#13;  Griffith	&#13;  in	&#13;  Congress—our	&#13;  representative	&#13;  in	&#13;  Congress—when	&#13;  I	&#13;  lobbied	&#13;  with	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  
PFLAG.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  with	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  National	&#13;  in	&#13;  2011.	&#13;  Yep.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  gave	&#13;  one	&#13;  to	&#13;  [Mark]	&#13;  Warner	&#13;  and	&#13;  
[Jim]	&#13;  Webb	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  our	&#13;  senators.	&#13;  	&#13;  So	&#13;  that	&#13;  if	&#13;  they	&#13;  really	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  read,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  
so	&#13;  many	&#13;  times	&#13;  to	&#13;  speak	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  field	&#13;  rep	&#13;  for	&#13;  Morgan	&#13;  Griffith,	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  awful.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  he	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  
coal	&#13;  man,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  burn	&#13;  coal	&#13;  until	&#13;  hell	&#13;  freezes	&#13;  over,	&#13;  we	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  that	&#13;  climate	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  we	&#13;  do	&#13;  not	&#13;  need	&#13;  gay	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  our	&#13;  schools.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  end	&#13;  of	&#13;  his,	&#13;  well,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know...	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  
to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  his	&#13;  field	&#13;  rep	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  really,	&#13;  huh,	&#13;  well	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  imagine,	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  
never	&#13;  met.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  you	&#13;  about	&#13;  something	&#13;  very	&#13;  important.	&#13;  
It’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  a	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  life	&#13;  and	&#13;  death,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  fluent	&#13;  with	&#13;  her.	&#13;  I	&#13;  turned	&#13;  red	&#13;  
as	&#13;  a	&#13;  beet.	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “this	&#13;  is	&#13;  so	&#13;  important	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  it	&#13;  out.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  her	&#13;  
about	&#13;  suicide	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  her	&#13;  about…	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  her	&#13;  again	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  her	&#13;  a	&#13;  third	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  because	&#13;  she	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  field	&#13;  office	&#13;  in	&#13;  Galax	&#13;  or	&#13;  in	&#13;  Stuart,	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  
courthouse	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever...	&#13;  	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  fourth	&#13;  time,	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Jim,	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  question	&#13;  for	&#13;  you.”	&#13;  She	&#13;  
said,	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  finding	&#13;  committee	&#13;  for	&#13;  my	&#13;  Presbyterian	&#13;  church,	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  anything	&#13;  that	&#13;  
would	&#13;  inform	&#13;  me?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “as	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  fact,	&#13;  Jack	&#13;  Rogers,	&#13;  a	&#13;  former	&#13;  moderator	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
Presbyterian	&#13;  Church	&#13;  U.S.	&#13;  wrote	&#13;  a	&#13;  book,	&#13;  The	&#13;  Bible	&#13;  and	&#13;  Homosexuality.”13	&#13;  “Ahhhh,	&#13;  really?!”	&#13;  I	&#13;  
said	&#13;  “oh	&#13;  yes,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  very	&#13;  scholarly,	&#13;  well	&#13;  documented.	&#13;  I	&#13;  gave	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  to	&#13;  read.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“would	&#13;  you	&#13;  like	&#13;  her	&#13;  copy?”	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “no,	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  get	&#13;  my	&#13;  own.”	&#13;  Came	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  her	&#13;  another	&#13;  
time.	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  gee	&#13;  Angie,	&#13;  How	&#13;  did	&#13;  that	&#13;  go?”	&#13;  “Well”	&#13;  she	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Let	&#13;  me	&#13;  just	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.”	&#13;  “I	&#13;  
only	&#13;  had	&#13;  one	&#13;  question	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  interviewees.”	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  your	&#13;  question?”	&#13;  “How	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  
relate	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  LGBT	&#13;  community?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  what	&#13;  responses	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  get?”	&#13;  She	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Well,	&#13;  
they	&#13;  beat	&#13;  around	&#13;  the	&#13;  bush	&#13;  or	&#13;  they	&#13;  said	&#13;  ‘you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  we	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  support	&#13;  that.’”	&#13;  One	&#13;  guy…he	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“we	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  welcome	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  our	&#13;  neighbors	&#13;  and	&#13;  learn	&#13;  to	&#13;  love	&#13;  each	&#13;  other,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “well	&#13;  
how	&#13;  did	&#13;  the	&#13;  committee	&#13;  respond?”	&#13;  He	&#13;  got	&#13;  the	&#13;  job,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  she	&#13;  pointed	&#13;  at	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said,	&#13;  
“Jim	&#13;  Best,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  giving	&#13;  you	&#13;  credit	&#13;  for	&#13;  that.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  another	&#13;  high	&#13;  point	&#13;  where	&#13;  getting	&#13;  over	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

�my	&#13;  defeatist	&#13;  attitude	&#13;  brought	&#13;  a	&#13;  church	&#13;  closer	&#13;  to	&#13;  acceptance	&#13;  and	&#13;  may	&#13;  have	&#13;  helped	&#13;  some	&#13;  kid.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  never	&#13;  have	&#13;  done	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  never	&#13;  have	&#13;  orchestrated	&#13;  any	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  factors.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
just	&#13;  followed	&#13;  my,	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  say	&#13;  it,	&#13;  the	&#13;  inner	&#13;  teacher.	&#13;  The	&#13;  spirit	&#13;  said	&#13;  “get	&#13;  your	&#13;  butt	&#13;  over	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  
sit	&#13;  down	&#13;  and	&#13;  wait	&#13;  for	&#13;  that	&#13;  woman	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  her.”	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
52:34	&#13;  
	&#13;  
Just	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  passed	&#13;  the	&#13;  Jehovah’s	&#13;  Witness	&#13;  Church	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Lord,	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  send	&#13;  me	&#13;  down	&#13;  there,	&#13;  
those	&#13;  people	&#13;  hate	&#13;  my	&#13;  guts.”	&#13;  The	&#13;  spirit	&#13;  said	&#13;  to	&#13;  me—this	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  truth	&#13;  now,	&#13;  ya’ll	&#13;  are	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  
think	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  a	&#13;  wacko!—“You	&#13;  knock	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  door	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  take	&#13;  it	&#13;  from	&#13;  there.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  my	&#13;  job	&#13;  was	&#13;  to	&#13;  
get	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  car	&#13;  and	&#13;  walk	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  door	&#13;  and	&#13;  knock	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  door	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  done	&#13;  
my	&#13;  job.”	&#13;  They	&#13;  about	&#13;  shook	&#13;  my	&#13;  hand	&#13;  off	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  sang	&#13;  their	&#13;  hymns,	&#13;  they	&#13;  invited	&#13;  me	&#13;  back.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
many	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  are	&#13;  first	&#13;  and	&#13;  second	&#13;  generation	&#13;  from	&#13;  Rwanda.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  
instant	&#13;  comradery,	&#13;  they	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  preach	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  reading	&#13;  their	&#13;  scriptures	&#13;  
you	&#13;  know	&#13;  in	&#13;  Romans	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  say,	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  accurately	&#13;  translated	&#13;  
scriptures	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  entire	&#13;  world.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  very	&#13;  interesting,	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  realize	&#13;  that	&#13;  
you’re	&#13;  using	&#13;  a	&#13;  word	&#13;  that	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  invented	&#13;  until	&#13;  the	&#13;  1800s?”	&#13;  “Oh.	&#13;  Oh.	&#13;  Is	&#13;  that	&#13;  right?”	&#13;  “Uh,	&#13;  
it	&#13;  has	&#13;  nothing	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  original	&#13;  Koine	&#13;  [language]	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  New	&#13;  Testament	&#13;  or	&#13;  Hebrew,	&#13;  
because	&#13;  those	&#13;  words	&#13;  and	&#13;  those	&#13;  concepts	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  exist	&#13;  in	&#13;  those	&#13;  cultures.”	&#13;  “Oh.	&#13;  Oh	&#13;  
really?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  yes,	&#13;  honestly.	&#13;  Homosexuality	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  New	&#13;  Testament	&#13;  concept	&#13;  and	&#13;  
sexual	&#13;  orientation	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  addressed	&#13;  in	&#13;  any	&#13;  form	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  scriptures.	&#13;  Only	&#13;  behavior	&#13;  is	&#13;  
discussed.”	&#13;  “Oh,	&#13;  well	&#13;  I	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  some	&#13;  more	&#13;  homework.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  end	&#13;  of	&#13;  the…	&#13;  
that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  end	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  So	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  see	&#13;  them	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  street,	&#13;  “How	&#13;  are	&#13;  you	&#13;  doing,	&#13;  Jim!?”	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
54:05	&#13;  
	&#13;  
Same	&#13;  thing	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  Assemblies	&#13;  of	&#13;  God.	&#13;  	&#13;  Ohhh	&#13;  Buddy.	&#13;  And	&#13;  his	&#13;  brother…	&#13;  did	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  this?	&#13;  No	&#13;  
I	&#13;  didn’t.	&#13;  I	&#13;  see	&#13;  the	&#13;  sign	&#13;  and	&#13;  they…	&#13;  it	&#13;  just	&#13;  gnaws	&#13;  at	&#13;  me	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  by,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  alright,	&#13;  
next	&#13;  Sunday	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  go	&#13;  there.”	&#13;  	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  in,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  five	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  congregation.	&#13;  I	&#13;  sing	&#13;  
with	&#13;  them,	&#13;  he	&#13;  comes	&#13;  by	&#13;  and	&#13;  shakes	&#13;  my	&#13;  hand	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  chawed	&#13;  down	&#13;  on	&#13;  that	&#13;  hand	&#13;  I	&#13;  
wanted	&#13;  him	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  serious	&#13;  business.	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  Clyde,	&#13;  why	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  here?”	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  
no,	&#13;  why	&#13;  are	&#13;  you	&#13;  here	&#13;  Jim?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “I’ve	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  [a]	&#13;  neighbor.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  learn	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  
[a]	&#13;  neighbor.	&#13;  	&#13;  To	&#13;  you	&#13;  and	&#13;  your	&#13;  congregation.”	&#13;  	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  “frankly	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  are	&#13;  
harder	&#13;  to	&#13;  love	&#13;  than	&#13;  others.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  he	&#13;  just	&#13;  dies	&#13;  laughing,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Clyde,	&#13;  sometime	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  just	&#13;  
like	&#13;  to	&#13;  speak	&#13;  with	&#13;  you.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  this	&#13;  hour	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  half	&#13;  conversation	&#13;  just	&#13;  him	&#13;  and	&#13;  I.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
he’s	&#13;  never	&#13;  heard	&#13;  this	&#13;  information	&#13;  before.	&#13;  No	&#13;  one	&#13;  has	&#13;  ever,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  never	&#13;  heard	&#13;  someone	&#13;  say	&#13;  
“I’m	&#13;  grateful	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  sexual	&#13;  orientation	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  have.”	&#13;  	&#13;  His	&#13;  brother	&#13;  is	&#13;  chairman	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  school	&#13;  
board.	&#13;  Did	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  that?	&#13;  No.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  sit	&#13;  down	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  fellowship	&#13;  hall	&#13;  and	&#13;  
they’re	&#13;  having	&#13;  fried	&#13;  chicken	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  “please	&#13;  join	&#13;  us	&#13;  for	&#13;  lunch”…	&#13;  “great!”	&#13;  I	&#13;  sit	&#13;  down,	&#13;  
don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  the	&#13;  lady…	&#13;  his	&#13;  daughter-­‐in-­‐law	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  social	&#13;  worker,	&#13;  worked	&#13;  in	&#13;  Montgomery	&#13;  
County.	&#13;  “Jim,	&#13;  I	&#13;  understand.”	&#13;  She	&#13;  gets	&#13;  it.	&#13;  She’s	&#13;  worked	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  at-­‐risk	&#13;  kids.	&#13;  She	&#13;  knows	&#13;  
sexual	&#13;  orientation.	&#13;  She	&#13;  knows	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  help	&#13;  them	&#13;  by	&#13;  condemning	&#13;  them.	&#13;  She	&#13;  welcomes	&#13;  
me	&#13;  to	&#13;  bring	&#13;  her	&#13;  the	&#13;  Youth	&#13;  Risk	&#13;  Behavior	&#13;  Survey	&#13;  [published	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  U.S.	&#13;  Centers	&#13;  for	&#13;  Disease	&#13;  
Control	&#13;  and	&#13;  Prevention].	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  write	&#13;  OCR,	&#13;  the	&#13;  Office	&#13;  of	&#13;  Civil	&#13;  Rights.	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  this	&#13;  survey	&#13;  is	&#13;  
intrinsically	&#13;  flawed	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  ask	&#13;  questions	&#13;  that	&#13;  relate	&#13;  to	&#13;  at-­‐risk	&#13;  communities.	&#13;  It	&#13;  
only	&#13;  has	&#13;  male	&#13;  or	&#13;  female.	&#13;  How	&#13;  are	&#13;  you	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  differentiate	&#13;  the	&#13;  at-­‐risk	&#13;  kids?	&#13;  If	&#13;  they	&#13;  can	&#13;  only	&#13;  
	&#13;  
18	&#13;  

�choose	&#13;  between	&#13;  the	&#13;  gender	&#13;  binary.	&#13;  Guess	&#13;  what?	&#13;  OCR	&#13;  writes	&#13;  me	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  says,	&#13;  “you’re	&#13;  
right.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  talking	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  CDC	&#13;  [Centers	&#13;  for	&#13;  Disease	&#13;  Control	&#13;  and	&#13;  Prevention]	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  add	&#13;  two	&#13;  questions	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  survey	&#13;  next	&#13;  year.	&#13;  Now	&#13;  that	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  asked	&#13;  them,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  it	&#13;  happened	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  already	&#13;  been	&#13;  working	&#13;  on	&#13;  it	&#13;  apparently,	&#13;  and	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  list	&#13;  
of	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  discovered	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  asked	&#13;  the	&#13;  question.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
56:34	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  Wow.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
56:36	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  our	&#13;  conference	&#13;  call	&#13;  with	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  National,	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  working	&#13;  on	&#13;  
generating	&#13;  a	&#13;  survey,	&#13;  not	&#13;  just	&#13;  in	&#13;  defining	&#13;  the	&#13;  demographics,	&#13;  but	&#13;  also	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  interpretation.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
they	&#13;  had	&#13;  racial	&#13;  numbers,	&#13;  “certain	&#13;  percentage	&#13;  are	&#13;  black,	&#13;  certain	&#13;  percentage	&#13;  are	&#13;  mixed,”	&#13;  they	&#13;  
had	&#13;  all	&#13;  that.	&#13;  They	&#13;  had	&#13;  male	&#13;  and	&#13;  female,	&#13;  but	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  results	&#13;  are	&#13;  tabulated	&#13;  without	&#13;  any	&#13;  
indicators,	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  more	&#13;  females	&#13;  and	&#13;  males…	&#13;  33	&#13;  attempted	&#13;  suicides	&#13;  in	&#13;  just	&#13;  
the	&#13;  50%	&#13;  percent	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  kids	&#13;  who	&#13;  identified	&#13;  themselves	&#13;  as	&#13;  “A”	&#13;  and	&#13;  “B”	&#13;  students.	&#13;  What	&#13;  does	&#13;  
that	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  kids	&#13;  who	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  so	&#13;  successful	&#13;  academically?	&#13;  …Nothing.	&#13;  What	&#13;  is	&#13;  
their	&#13;  risk?	&#13;  More?	&#13;  Maybe	&#13;  so.	&#13;  And	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  only	&#13;  in	&#13;  two	&#13;  grades.	&#13;  So	&#13;  they	&#13;  could	&#13;  have	&#13;  defined	&#13;  the	&#13;  
results	&#13;  by	&#13;  a	&#13;  racial	&#13;  profile,	&#13;  they	&#13;  could	&#13;  have	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  our	&#13;  minority	&#13;  kids…three	&#13;  
times	&#13;  more	&#13;  likely	&#13;  to…for	&#13;  ideation	&#13;  or	&#13;  for	&#13;  self-­‐injury	&#13;  or	&#13;  for	&#13;  attempted	&#13;  suicide.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  there	&#13;  
were	&#13;  three	&#13;  different	&#13;  questions.	&#13;  They	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know.	&#13;  The	&#13;  heinous	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  is,	&#13;  the	&#13;  results	&#13;  are	&#13;  all	&#13;  
tabulated	&#13;  verbally—I	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  presented	&#13;  this,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know—and	&#13;  the	&#13;  verbal	&#13;  description	&#13;  was,	&#13;  
“slightly	&#13;  above”	&#13;  the	&#13;  national	&#13;  norms,	&#13;  actually	&#13;  178%	&#13;  above	&#13;  [JB	&#13;  added	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  transcript:	&#13;  the	&#13;  
national	&#13;  level	&#13;  for	&#13;  suicide	&#13;  attempts	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  10th	&#13;  and	&#13;  12th	&#13;  grades	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  High	&#13;  School.]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
So	&#13;  anyhow,	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  spent	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  time…is	&#13;  there	&#13;  anything	&#13;  else	&#13;  I	&#13;  need	&#13;  to…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
58:16	&#13;  
	&#13;  
CA:	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  your	&#13;  story	&#13;  is	&#13;  just	&#13;  incredible.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  really,	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  an	&#13;  incredible	&#13;  person,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
thank	&#13;  you	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  for	&#13;  sharing	&#13;  with	&#13;  us…just	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  thank	&#13;  you	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  Jim.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
58:30	&#13;  
	&#13;  
JB:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  thank	&#13;  you	&#13;  all	&#13;  for	&#13;  being	&#13;  so	&#13;  prepared.	&#13;  Yep.	&#13;

An academic article has been published about “Cookin’ Cheap”: Greg M. Smith and Pamela Wilson, “Country
Cookin’ and Cross-Dressin’: Television, Southern White Masculinities, and Hierarchies of Cultural Taste,”
Television and New Media 5, no. 3 (August 2004): 175-196.

�LB: [Laughter] Right out of the gate, you got me! [Laughter] I don’t know. I cooked over 300
recipes in 25 years, I think it was on the air. Whether there is a favorite or not I don’t know. It
wasn’t a desert I can tell you that because I’m not a dessert person. I don’t do too much of that. I
guess probably some Italian dishes we tried.
MK: Are there any recipes that to this day you’ve kept to yourself?
00:40
LB: Absolutely! We put out something called ‘The Cookin’ Cheap Cookbook.’ In fact we put
out three of them down through the years. But the last was especially a nice one. With sort of a
semi-hard cover and a color photo on the front. I have that at home and there are five or six
recipes that I know are in there, that if I’m always going to fix them, I’m always going to go to
that book and get them.
MK: And what are those recipes?
1:06
LB: Well, there is a chicken parmesan recipe that is very simple but very elegant that I like an
awful lot. It doesn’t require a lot of fuss. You know the show is about fixing food that do not
require a lot a fuss and simple recipes. There is a beer bread that I do occasionally from scratch
that is very, very simple but quite lovely. And let’s see, there might be, I’m trying to think of one
or two [more] others that I might go to for that, but for right now that’s all.
MK: Can you tell us a little bit about your childhood in Maryland?
1:41
LB: Well I was born in Baltimore Maryland but I did not live there but a year, because my
parents divorced. The one thing they could agree on in their divorce was that I should be raised
by somebody in the country and not be raised in Baltimore which was a very, very rough city,
back in the day and some parts of it still are for that matter. So they trotted me out to Shenandoah
County in Northern Virginia where my grandmother lived and the only thing they could agree on
was that she should raise me [Laughter] but I don’t think either of them wanted me. I’m not sure
about that. But anyway, they took me out to my grandmother’s house to be taken care of and she
died of cancer a year later so my Aunt Tootsie took me on at that point, along with her younger
sister who still had one more year to go in high school, their mother died, and my grandfather. So
we were just this crazy family of you know aunts, uncles, nephews, and what have you. And so I
grew up on a 300-acre farm, beef cattle farm near Winchester, and it was a beautiful life, a
wonderful life and I was never… my folks would visit me but I never lived with them again after
that. I literally grew up there. My folks gave me the opportunity to be adopted and I said “no, I
don’t think we need to do that.” So I kept my name and was never officially adopted but they
were my official guardians all through school and college.
3:17
MK: Can you elaborate on your life living on a farm in Maurertown2 Virginia?
2

The recording says “Winchester” but Mr. Bly corrected us. The farm he grew up on was in Maurertown, Virginia
which is close to but not in Winchester.

2

�3:21
LB: Well it was a lot of work because farms are a lot of work. And so you were expected to work
out in the barn and in the fields and what have you. For an only child like myself one of the
reasons I think that I came around to the creative field was because I had to amuse myself so
much, I was by myself so much of the time but it was a lovely place to grow up. We had 300
acres, probably 500 cows, [laughter] and the first thing you learned on a beef cattle farm was do
not name the animals. [Laughter] It’s a terrible thing but it’s true. So yeah I of course lived there
until I went into the army. I lived there through college and I lived there through.... well I went
away for two years but I came back from the army, back to the house, briefly and then I moved
away for good, you know?
4:18
MK: How did serving in the army during the Korean War impact your life?
4:23
LB: Well first of all, I didn’t, I wasn’t there during the Korean War. Because if I had been there
during the Korean War I would’ve been seven years old. [Laughter] Hah, got ya! But to answer
your question I was in Korea during the Vietnam War. That is very confusing to people it’s not
the first time… people have done articles on me saying “Mr. Bly served admirably during the
Korean War” and I always go “noooo,” I would’ve been the youngest soldier in the world! No,
but anyway, I went in and I was very lucky. I got drafted in ‘68. And it was very stressful
because it was almost a given that you were going to go to Vietnam and maybe get killed. So it
was very stressful for all of us that age. But I lucked out, I ended up going to Fort Bragg, North
Carolina for basic training. And when I got finished with basic training they had assigned all
these people, “you’re going to go to Fort Polk, Louisiana and you are going to go to Fort… da da
da da da.” And you knew these people would definitely end up in Vietnam and those people
might... And when he got to the end of the list I’m standing there by myself and the guy says,
“Who are you?” I said, “Private Bly” and he says “I don’t have anything for you at all.” And I
went, “oh lucky me, everybody else knows where they’re going and what they’re doing.” So
anyway they came and got me an hour later and said “well actually you’re not going anywhere.
You’re going to go to the other side of the base where you’re going to be on the psychological
operations division, PSYOPs.” It was our job...We were photographers, radio announcers, and
TV people, and newspaper journalists, and they just bunched us into this big company because
we were a group of creative people and they didn’t know what to do with us. So we had the
Green Berets on one side of us, we had the 82nd Airborne Division on the other side, but we were
this strange little company, of really fun people. I mean we were just, you know, we were the
people that did all the writing and all the broadcasting, all that stuff. So my experience at Fort
Bragg was really good and I had been there for a year. And the policy at the time was if—and if I
get to wondering on too much, just stop me—if you had less than thirteen months left they would
not send you overseas. Well, with eleven months left, they came in one day and said, “You are
going overseas.” And I said, “No way!” And he said, “You are the luckiest guy in the world, you
are not going to Vietnam, you are going to go to Korea.” And in Korea they got me on with the
American Forces Korean Network and I was their network announcer.3 I always like to say that

Service, and began operations in South Korea in 1957.

�I helped make Korea safe for ‘rock and roll.’ [Laughter] And that is what I did, so it was quite
enjoyable thank you. It was like a real job, by the way.
7:15
MK: How did you become a part of the Army?
7:17
LB: What do mean part of the Army?
7:19
MK: Like, how did you get there, how did you come to serving in the army?
7:30
LB: Well, the draft board. That’s how. It’s not something I wanted to do but something that
happened to you as a young male when you graduated from high school. Either you went directly
into college or you found yourself trying to figure out, if you didn’t want to go, how you might
get out of it [getting drafted]. [Laughter] Although I didn’t try to do that. So anyway, I got called
by the draft board to have an Army physical and that starts the process, okay? And strangely
enough that process started right here, two blocks from here.
8:15
Mk: What sparked your move to Roanoke Virginia in 1971?
8:17
LB: In ‘71 I had just gotten back from the Army and I went back home for about three or four
months. I went back to my radio job that I had before I went in the Army. I was a Disc Jockey.
And I decided, you know, if I land here I’m just liable to never leave here. Because I loved the
farm and I loved my folks. I had a wonderful family. I’ve got to force myself out again and it
wasn't like I hadn't been gone for two years. So I thought, if I stay here, it’s not a good thing, I
need to move on to something else. So I went to Detroit, Michigan. I moved to Detroit, Michigan
where I worked for a big radio station up there for about four months. I hated Detroit, Michigan.
Detroit had just had riots, they burned half the city down, it was a nasty place it was just really
edgy. A little too edgy for this country boy. So, I started putting out what are called ‘airchecks’
to different radio stations: a couple up in Washington, because I kind of grew up outside of D.C.;
one here to (station) WROV; and one to a station in Charlotte, North Carolina. And all of them
responded positively and so I thought that I was going to go to Charlotte, North Carolina, but the
job didn’t come open until fall. And I didn’t want to stay in Detroit until fall. So, I had a friend
who worked for WROV, and he said “Well why don’t you come work for us. It’s a really great
radio station. You’d be shocked at how good this little radio station is in Roanoke, Virginia.”
And he says, “I don’t think you will mind Roanoke too bad.” So I said, “Okay I’ll do that.” So
that is how I ended up moving here. And I never made it to Charlotte, North Carolina. [Laughter]
I’m still here.
10:03
MK: How would you describe your social life when you first moved to Roanoke in the early
‘70s?

4

�10:08
LB: My social life was nonexistent. Even though I was in radio. I wasn’t yet in TV, I would not
get into TV for three or four more years, so strictly radio. Then my business partner and I, Marty
Hall and I, also at that time started the ad agency on the side, to see if we could make that
eventually be what we do for a living. So, when I first moved here in ‘71 I didn’t really, even
though I made fabulous money in Detroit, I didn’t make fabulous money in Roanoke. [Laughter]
And so I didn’t have a social life. We had a cabin on Back Creek, a very beautiful place that is
still there. And so, I worked seven till midnight. I got off at midnight, there was nothing open in
Roanoke, except maybe a truck stop down on [Route] 220. So, I would just come home and I
wasn’t much of a partying person. I had no social life and then eventually, social life started to
happen. I started meeting through my business partner, Marty Hall, because he had worked here
for many years, he knew a lot of people. So, he started introducing me to people who would
eventually, some would eventually become some of my long-term friends in this town. And then
I started getting invited to parties and social events. But, I still didn’t go out to bars. I didn’t do
that. Not initially.
11:35
MK: How has your personal life changed since the early 1970s?
11:38
LB: I’ve gotten old. [Laughter] Not much I don’t think. I really don’t think so, of course I’ve
been very successful in all my pursuits. I’ve been very lucky. I’ve been very successful and so I
live comfortably. Not ostentatiously but comfortably and I think I have a good life; and I’m still
working at this ad agency, even though I don’t really need to any more, just to sort of give me a
place to go to everyday. I like having my desk and my phone and my studio. We still record stuff
here. And Lindy and I handle some accounts and so yeah, we stay busy. So my life is changed in
that I’m now doing this not because I have to but because I still very much enjoy what I’ve done
all these years.
12:29
MK: What has sparked your interest in broadcasting at such an early age?
12:32
LB: You know that is an interesting question. My folks could never figure it out. Years ago the
Advertising Federation of the Roanoke Valley gave me the ‘Silver Medal Award’ which is given
every couple of years, not necessarily every year. For excellence in the field, it could be
broadcasting, it could be advertising. So it’s given by your peers, it’s voted on by your peers.
And it’s a lovely thing to have and they gave me one in 1989 and they did a thirty-minute
program of my life, it was like “This is your Life,” it was amazing. Some of my folks told the
story about how when I was a kid, I would take like pan lids and I would spin them and sing
songs. So, I think I thought I was a Disc Jockey, even though I didn’t know what a Disc Jockey
was and I was always fascinated with the radio. And my Aunt Tootsie who raised me, who was
just a big radio fan and she was oddly enough listened to rock music all the time which was
strange. [Laughter] I mean we grew up in the country and if you went to the barn you listened to
country music. But not in my Aunt Tootsie’s kitchen you didn’t listen to country music. Plus,

5

�when I was a kid, at night there was a bunch of 50,000 watt radio stations that you could listen to
that would only come in after dark, because after the sun goes down it radiates differently. I grew
up very early on listening to WABC in New York which was a great rock station. WLS Chicago,
WKBW Buffalo, I mean all these stations just came barreling in and I mean these Disc Jockeys
were just funny and wonderful, the music was very exciting. So I sort of got that at a very early
age even though I was on a farm so I think I was influenced to do that. And somehow I just grew
this voice one day. [Laughter] I have no training, it just happened.
14:32
MK: How do you feel being described as a ‘wacky radio guy’?
14:35
LB: Well, I like being described as a ‘wacky radio guy.’ Because back in the day when we were
on the air, it was our job not only to inform you but it was our job also to make you laugh and
make you… Especially getting up in the morning. I was a morning man for a couple of years and
while I hated getting up at five to do that job I’m told I made it a little easier for other people to
get up and go to their work. So, I like being a wacky guy, you know? Because we really did
some outrageous things on the air that made people laugh and we gave away thousands of
dollars’ worth of prizes, it was great fun, it really was.
15:13
MK: Can you tell us a little bit about what you talked about on your radio show?
15:19
LB: Well, it wasn’t a talk radio show, it was a music radio show. So mostly was just what we
call one liners and jokes and stuff like that. And no, I can’t remember any of them and you
should be grateful that I can’t. They probably weren't that funny now that I think about it.
15:36
MK: What made you switch from broadcasting and being on radio, TV, to starting up your own
advertising agency?
15:42
LB: Well, it kind of happened as I mentioned a while ago, that it all kind of happened at the same
time. I knew that I loved radio, it was and is my first love, but I also knew that in order to make
more and more money on radio I had to keep moving to bigger and bigger cities and I’m not
much of a vagabond. I just wanted to kind of settle in and have a life. So, my business partner
Marty Hall and I—he was also a radio guy, so he understood what my feelings were—and he
says, “If we can just start this ad agency eventually it will be our livelihood and then you don't
have to do the broadcasting,” and it worked out that way. But with so many other things in my
life, I never stopped doing any of it. So I continued doing weekends on the air for years up until
about ten years ago. Other than that I did a public radio show for a big band swing show for
about three years; that was a few years back. And then of course the TV shows. But I did all of
them simultaneously. I was a very busy man in the ‘80s. I spent a lot of time running from studio
to studio, from microphone to microphone, and I was really busy but I loved it. It was a labor of
love.

�17:00
MK: How has your experience as host of America’s longest running cooking show?
17:04
LB: How was my experience? Was that the question?
17:05
MK: Yes.
17:06
LB: Well it was always fun. Laban and I could be having a little argument, and we didn’t do that
very often, or we could be having very big arguments, as we were preparing to go on the air and
when they gave us the ten second count down we went on and it wasn’t fake, we just
immediately started liking each other again and laughing and always making each other laugh
even when we were angry with each other. So it was always [a] pleasure, it was a lot of fun. So,
it was never one of those jobs that got to be a chore.
17:40
MK: In your opinion, what made the show successful?
17:44
LB: The show worked on a whole bunch of different levels. If you have ever seen it. Have you
ever seen it?
17:50
MK: [Sound indicating the answer no]
17:51
LB: You can go on YouTube. It’s all over the place. The show worked on a lot of different
levels. It was two guys. It had a lot of things going on. Kids liked the show because they thought
we were like ‘Laurel and Hardy.’ Adults liked it because it was just a funny show, it was very
funny. I don’t know, it was not scripted. We were just two funny guys. He made me laugh. I
made him laugh. And there was all these college kids liked it, because they would get together
on campus, and it was because I guess they thought it was funny for a lot of different reasons.
Straights and gays for different reasons liked it because there was maybe this little underlying
thing that once in a while we would get [A growl-like noise] a little bitchy with each other on the
air, you know? And that tickled everybody. So it was successful because it worked on so many
levels. Old people liked it because they just embraced us, they just thought we were wonderful.
18:54
MK: What is your favorite project that you have been a part of?
18:56
LB: A project for… [Pause and noise of papers rustling as Mr. Bly looks through notes] I did
make a couple of notes here, in case I had to talk about it. I think one of, it wasn’t my favorite

7

�project, but it was the longest lasting project that I had… it was starting to help to establish the
Blue Ridge AIDS Support Services or BRASS, through the Council of Community Services. I
have done a lot of gratis work, the agency has, and I have personally served on a lot of boards
and volunteered a lot of time to the Rescue Mission and in various places. But I was called upon,
in I guess the early ‘90s, and I can’t remember what year it was, I just know it was after I had
lost about fifteen friends to AIDS. I was called upon by the Council of Community Services to
help create something, and they weren’t really kind of sure what it was. It turned out to be
BRASS, Blue Ridge AIDS Support Services. And what it was is we assisted people with AIDS
and HIV-positive [people] to get housing, pay utilities, and apply for various programs including
the ‘Ryan White Fund,’ which to this day is a very big fund to help people out.4 Essentially, we
were a clearing house for people living with AIDS to find resources to survive if they were
having a tough time. And I was the president of BRASS for probably, I think two years. And
then I served on the board, I think for fifteen, until we finally went out of business. Gratefully.
[Laughter] And not for the right reasons. We went out of business because essentially the state of
Virginia was in a better position to administrate some of these programs than a volunteer
organization was. So, one day they said well you know the state has come to us and said, “You
can be a part of us or we can be a part of you. But frankly, we would like you to be a part of us.”
I looked at the board and said, “Why would we do that? They don’t need us.” So we essentially
voted ourselves out of existence. But a lot of these programs are still there. But anyway, to get
back to the point of your question. That was not one of the more fun things I ever did but it was
certainly one of the longer lasting and probably accomplished more than a lot of anything else
that I ever did.
21:17
MK: What are your plans for the future of ‘Cookin’ Cheap’?
21:23
LB: There are no plans for the future of ‘Cookin’ Cheap.’ Having said that, that is not entirely
true. [Laughter] Nothing is ever black and white with me. I’m all shades of grey. I did... I had
this gentleman in Charlottesville, David Dillehunt, I think is his name, strange last name, who
contacted me three years ago, it was a big family show. He grew up watching the show with his
mother who was a big fan of the show. And he says, “I run a production house and I think I’d
like to convince you to go back in front of the cameras again and see if we can bring this show
back.” And I said, “David, it’s been off the air for fifteen years, I’m not, you know, I’m not
getting any younger. I’m not sure I want to do this. I did it for twenty-five years. That’s a long
time in TV!” It took him three years of coming to Roanoke to convince me to do this. So, last fall
I packed up all the pots and pans and food and everything and got myself a hotel room in
Charlottesville and they found a house with a nice kitchen and hired a camera crew. And we got
another person, whose name I cannot remember, from outside of D.C. to be my co-host and we
sort of clicked. I don’t know whether we clicked as well as Laban and I did. But anyways, we
actually did a pilot last fall. He is taking this pilot and talking to syndicators right now to see if
there is any interest. So, your question actually is more fortuitous than you thought, perhaps.

The Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS Resources Emergency Act was passed by the U.S. Congress in 1990. It
provides federal funding to those suffering from AIDS who cannot afford to pay for medical care.

�Well my personal plan is, I would just like to let it die. I put in twenty-five years, it was a lot of
fun [laughter] but that is in my past.
23:15
MK: What is your involvement in the LGBTQ community?
23:17
LB: None what so ever. Having said that... Gosh, do I ever give a straight answer to anything? I
don’t think I ever do. That is not entirely true. Before it was the LG-BG-T… What is it?
23:36
MK: LGBTQ
23:37
LB: I can never remember. Now they’ve added three more [letters] of the alphabet. Before there
was that, I helped to organize along with some friends here in town, the first Pride in the Park
which was held at Wasena Park the first two or three years, and the first gay pride parade in
Roanoke. I had already participated in some of the first ones in Washington D.C. which was
terrible for me. Because my partner at the time says, “Oh we’ve got to do this!” He was all, he
still is… I mean he is a friend now… but he’s still out there working everything that comes
along. He says, “We’ve got to make this march!” and I said, “Are you kidding? It will be
covered by local TV and my family will be watching the local TV. I don’t think I want to do
this.” But we did anyway. [Laughter] So anyway, in answer to your question, even before the
organization per se came around I was in on sort of the vanguard of trying to help organize some
things like that here in town and, in fact, worked in some of those projects for three or four years.
And then they got to be big and other people took them over gladly and they did them better than
we did them. So, but that’s the answer I guess.
24:55
MK: Can you tell us a little more about that?
24:57
LB: About what?
25:00
MK: About the things you have started here and that people have taken over?
25:05
LB: Well, of course BRASS was one of them, Blue Ridge AIDS Support Services. The Pride in
the Park parade. I’m trying to think if there is anything else. No, nothing comes to mind right off
the bat. I’m sure after you leave I’ll think of something and I’m sorry about that. I wish I were a
little better prepared.
25:26
MK: Explain how you feel about being a role model to not only the LGBT community but to the
Roanoke Valley as a whole.

9

�25:32
LB: Am I a role model? Oh my gosh. [Laughter] Oh I suppose it’s an honor. I suppose it is.
Because I’ve worked on so many levels and so many different things so, yeah. It’s an honorable
thing, it is.
25:52
MK: Is there anything else in your life that has impacted you that we did not already touch on
that you would like to share with us?
25:59
LB: Well, yeah, I think that I touched on it ever so briefly, that impacted me mightily was when I
started losing friends in the later ‘80s early ‘90s to something that we did not know what it was
called AIDS. That was a very scary time. And I lost about fifteen friends in about two or three
years. Which was a pretty terrible thing. And then I would go on to lose friends for another
fifteen years.
26:31 – 26:54
[Removed from transcript at the request of Mr. Bly]
26:54
MK: That is all we have.
26:55
LB: That’s it?
26:57
MK: Yeah
26:57
LB: That’s the best you can do?
26:58
CA [Caroline Allison]: Is there anything else you would like to share with us?
27:00
LB: Yeah, I’m going to tell you a funny story.
27:01
MK: Okay, yeah.
27:01
LB: Can I tell you a funny story? Because I didn’t know. I made some notes so I wouldn't forget.
See, I have very little history here because I didn't grow up here but I was on my way in here this
morning and I went “oh my gosh. I forgot to put down this very funny story about my first time
in Roanoke, Virginia, in fact my first two times in Roanoke, Virginia.” I was probably eighteen

10

�years old when I first came here for an Army physical at the Carlton Terrace Building, which
they tore down a few years ago, over on Jefferson Street right beside Carillion the big hospital
just across the street from here. Anyway, we came down on the Greyhound bus—it was like
cattle, they would load all of us guys up in Woodstock and then they would stop and have
several stops on the way down so we had a bus load of people who were going to be going to
their Army physical. And for some reason even up in the valley we didn’t go into D.C. or
Baltimore we came here to Roanoke, this was the regional area to have our Army physical. So
the first night they put us up in the Patrick Henry Hotel which is now just the Patrick Henry, this
is a funny story. So they put us, the Army must have gotten one heck of a deal from Patrick
Henry… they put us on the top floor which had nothing. Two beds, a table, and a telephone.
There was no television, there was no radio, there was nothing. I mean it was just this bare room.
Because we were going to go in early the next morning for our Army physicals. So, you know
we were all nervous because we might be sent to Vietnam and killed. And so I couldn't sleep. So,
I opened up the window of the Patrick Henry Hotel on the top floor. Well you can do things back
in those days and they didn’t have any safety stuff like they do today. And I was sitting up there
and it was one o’clock in the morning, which was late for me. And I’m looking down on Bullitt
Avenue, which is right in front of this building but it used to go all the way across before they
put the interstate in. But if you go on the other side of the interstate, Bullitt Avenue is still there,
right in front of the Patrick Henry. So [it was there at] Bullitt and Jefferson. So I’m sitting up
there and I’m just a country boy, dumb as a post, and I’m looking down on and I’m going “what
are all of these people doing out here at this time, why aren’t they in bed? Why don’t they go to
bed? What are they doing?” And there are people racing up and down, you know, there was a
parking garage next to it, racing in and out of the parking garage and all this nonsense. I didn’t
know until many years later—and it happened again two years later when I came down for
another physical, that time they put me in the Army—but what I didn’t know until many years
later after I moved to Roanoke and got to know people that grew up here was that was the gay
cruising block! I didn’t know what all this craziness was down below me, I thought, “What?” I
guess people were picking people up or getting to know people and I didn’t even know what that
was. It had to be explained to me, but I thought that was very funny. My first two times in
Roanoke that’s what I saw. [Laughter] But I’m trying to think if there is anything else that I
would like to impart to you. Just give me a second. [Laughter]
30:09
MK: Okay
30:10
LB: But I did think about that. Did we go into the bars? All the Bars? Has anybody told you
about how many bars we had here?
30:17
CA: Yes.
MK: Yes.
30:19

11

�LB: Oh my gosh. A real long list of them. And supposedly The Trade Winds was supposedly the
first one in the state. I find that a little hard to believe but, anyway. I think that’s pretty much, I
can’t think of anything else that I wanted to tell you. I’m surprised that you didn’t ask me about
the ‘Cook Sisters.’ Do you know about the ‘Cook Sisters’?
30:41
MK: No.
30:42
LB: Well, let me tell you this. The ‘Cook Sisters’ was a part of ‘Cookin’ Cheap’ and it was
Laban and me in drag. And it wasn’t pretty, I can tell you that. It was old women, funny drag.
Okay? But here is how it came about. The TV station came to us and said—we put the show on
the air and it was an immediate hit—and about three or four years later somebody at the station
came down and said to Laban and me and said, “Well you know this is public TV and at one
time was called educational TV and while your show is very funny it doesn't impart anything
other than humor. A lot of kids watch and a lot of people, don’t you think... Could you come up
with a segment? Or maybe you could give some tips or something. You know? Household tips,
cooking tips, what have you.” And we said, “That sounds kind of dull and dry to us.” And they
said, “Well you know? We think you need to get something a little educational on your show
instead of just doing it for laughs.” So Laban and I got together one evening and we came up
with the idea of the ‘Cook Sisters.’ We said, “What if we have these two old biddies in really bad
drag and they give cooking tips or cleaning tips?” But they do it for laughs, as we did everything
else, because we thought to just stop and do that would kill the forward motion of the show, you
know? So we came up with the ‘Cook Sisters’ and two wonderful outfits and well they just
become an immediate hit. I thought well, “we’ll [just] do this for a year. I don’t want to appear
on TV in a dress for very long.” Because I’m running an ad agency. Well the ‘Cook Sisters’ just
took off. People loved them, they thought they were funny, they were named ‘Tootsie Cook’
after my Aunt Tootsie who raised me, and ‘Sister Cook’ after Laban’s Aunt Sister. That was her
name, Aunt Sister. So anyway, they become a huge hit and the TV station just had a fit. The
management came to us and said, “This really wasn’t quite what we had in mind.” And we said,
“Well, this is what you got. You either go with that or we’re not going to do this.” So, then they
become so popular we couldn’t get rid of them. So they stayed for the show, for the entire rest of
the run. It was the only part of the show, by the way, that was pre-taped because obviously we
couldn't jump into an outfit on the air. The show was done in real time beginning to end just like
this interview is. No stops. No edits. Twenty-seven minutes, from the time they pointed the
finger and gave us the ten-second countdown. The only way we could do the ‘Cook Sisters’ was
to pre-record it. We would do an entire season’s worth in one sitting. We would do it sometimes
on my back deck, sometimes we did it at someone’s home. And we did all thirteen for the, or
twenty-six, for the twenty-six series. And so we would just call one (segment) and they would
just bring it up. But it was the only part of the show that was ever taped. But yeah, to this day,
and I’ll tell you a very funny story: One day I’m sitting at the Waffle House on Franklin Road
reading the newspaper, and some big burly truck driver comes in and sits down beside me and I
could see he was sort of looking at me in the corner of his eye. And I thought, “Oh boy, this
ought to be really interesting.” And he said, “Are you the guy on that cooking show?” and I said,
“Yeah.” and he said, “Gee your hilarious. I’ve just got to tell you those dag gon Cook Sisters are
the funniest thing!” Something you wouldn’t expect to hear from a truck driver. But, you know,

12

�it just had this universal [Laughter] universal appeal, I guess. So that’s how they came to be,
because if you didn’t have that on there someone would ask you about that, okay?
34:35
MK: Thank you.
CA: Yes, thank you so much.
34:38
LB: Well, you all were just too much fun. Such a pleasure. I hope that I didn’t disappoint you.
34:44
Shutting down the recording device.

00:08
JF: My name is Julie Frymier. Today is February 26, 2016. We are interviewing Whitney
Conley in Miller 219 at Roanoke College. When and where were you born?
00:30
WC: When was April 12, 1968, and I was born in Raleigh County, West Virginia.
00:36
JF: And how long have you lived in the Roanoke/Salem area?

	&#13;  

1	&#13;  

�00:42
WC: I’ve lived in Roanoke city since 1982, I believe… ‘81 or ‘82.
00:55
JF: And were you born into any particular ethnic, national, racial, or religious groups?
01:01
WC: No. Just Caucasian.
01:03
JF: What was your experience with the community of Roanoke?
01:08
WC: As far as? ... just?
01:12
JF: Interaction, people.
01:16
WC: I went to school here. I grew up in New Jersey up until about the 8th grade, and then
I came back here. My family is from here. I went to high school here. Normal kids
getting into trouble just like everybody else. After that, I went to a travel school in
Pittsburgh and came back and had a fifteen / sixteen-year career in the travel and
hospitality industry until the bottom dropped out with 9/11.
Other than that, I’m just living here. I mean it’s a good town to raise kids. People are
generally nice. There’s a difference between “Salemites” and “Roanokers” and I’m sure
you’re aware of that. In general, you know, it’s changed. It’s grown quite a bit from when
we came back from New Jersey. But all in all, it has its ups and it has its downs.
02:13
JF: Could you tell me more about how it’s changed over the time?
02:17
WC: Well, it’s definitely grown in population. I can remember when Valley View Mall
was not Valley View Mall. It was the Huff Farm. We got in trouble on that farm a couple
few times. Hershberger Road was two lanes, going that way and coming this way and
that was it. So, it really has grown quite a bit just over the last few years. I’ve noticed,
well actually, this has been happening for quite a while, Roanoke has really been enticing
elderly people to retire here. The unfortunate down side to that is, they don’t want to pay
taxes, certainly not educational taxes, and that hurts the school divisions I think. We
could’ve been Charlotte [North Carolina]. We really could’ve been Charlotte. And well,
we’re not because of some really piss poor decisions of our leaders.
03:13
JF: And so, what has been some of the most important events in your life?

	&#13;  

2	&#13;  

�03:20
WC: Important events… I would probably start… I would say a turning point in my life
was probably when my dad died in 1982 when I was thirteen getting ready to turn
fourteen. Then, not too long after that, I went through a huge depression with all of that.
My sister was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s disease. She was seven or eight. And my
teenage years were just not good. Then, I would say getting married, having kids, you
know, your typical huge events, but nothing I would say catastrophic.
04:11
JF: What is your sexual orientation, and your gender identity?
04:16
WC: Well, I’m gay/lesbian. In today’s world there’s so many definitions. I just say gay
female. I’m female, not transgender or anything, strictly female.
04:34
JF: What was your family’s reaction to you coming out? I know you’ve mentioned
having children.
04:39
WC: The children… my youngest really wasn’t old enough to understand. He was… oh
gosh… my oldest was twelve, so five and a half years, seven, so my youngest was seven.
My oldest did not take it very well at all. I was divorced from their father. When the
father found out about it, that’s when kind of all hell broke loose. The custody battle and
all that. And he sued.
05:19
JF: Did you anticipate that your sexual orientation would cause such an issue, and how
did that make you feel internally?
05:30
WC: I don’t really think that… well… let me back up just a little bit. I was in a
relationship prior to my kids finding out. So they did not know about that relationship. I
had told my mother. I had come out to my mother at that point. She’s from the ‘60s
generation. Nothing really surprised her much, and my sister had had a female affair as
well and she’s not gay, but you know, most people experience that at some point in their
lives. The coming out, as far as with my children, came with the second relationship, but
I didn’t give it much thought I don’t think. I really did not think that it was going to be as
big a deal as it really was.
06:26
JF: How did the relationship change within your family after you came out?
06:31

	&#13;  

3	&#13;  

�WC: It didn’t, not as far as like my mother, my relationship with my mother. My
grandmother, she was on my mother’s side [maternal grandmother], she didn’t say
anything about it, but you knew because of religion and stuff, she didn’t accept it. But she
didn’t treat me any different. But, by that point, she was so getting to the point of
dementia and all that. My other grandmother on my father’s side—well my grandfather
on my father’s side he was already in full blown Alzheimer’s—but my grandmother she
was cool. She loved Terri to death, and that was like her second granddaughter, so on and
so on. The dynamics there didn’t really change much.
07:17
JF: What challenges do you think we still have within things that need to be done within
changes in the LGBT community here at Roanoke, or here within Salem and Roanoke?
07:29
WC: Well as far as the College itself [Roanoke College], I was only going here for one
semester, which was last semester, and of course I had to drop because of some personal
things going on in my family, had nothing to do with the gay issue.
But, no one knew I was gay, so I couldn’t answer that question honestly. I couldn’t give
you an honest answer.
07:54
JF: What was life like for you identifying as a lesbian then when you first came out, and
how have things changed now?
08:04
WC: You mean as far as my personal [life] out in the community?
08:09
JF: Yes
08:17
WC: When I had my first relationship, it was with a girl I had worked with who I knew
from high school. It was a very tumultuous relationship. And she ended up losing her job,
but then 9/11 happened and then I lost mine being laid off—half of the whole staff was
laid off. But the people there at work knew, but that didn’t really change anything. They
really kind of helped me get out of that relationship. But as far as the community, and I
hate to say this but its really true, I don’t look the gay part. I don’t have a shaved head. I
don’t have—and I hate the word—the “dyke” look. I don’t have that. I can get away with
more things in the community. It’s true. It’s the unfortunate side of it. So, it really hasn’t
changed for me honestly.
09:24
JF: Ok. And do you volunteer, or have you ever volunteered for an LGBT organization?
09:33

	&#13;  

4	&#13;  

�WC: No, I don’t have time to.
09:37
JF: Do you feel as though Roanoke and Southwest Virginia / Roanoke has enough of
these groups and communities for the LGBTQ communities? That they have enough
resources and groups?
09:50
WC: You know this is a really odd thing, I don’t know. Because, our friends are gay, but
no one really talks about it. No one seems to be involved in anything. There’s the Pride in
the Park. Never have been to it. Just not something… some people don’t go out in the
community, especially teachers don’t go out in the community because they don’t want to
be found out. For whatever their reason is, I don’t know if that’s retaliation in their
employment, which wouldn’t surprise me. So, there are things around the community, but
…I don’t know…
10:37
JF: Ok. What community spaces do you frequent? Where do you like to go?
10:51
WC: Well, I used to go... I don’t really go out anymore. Macado’s downtown would’ve
been like the gay hangout. We would go to Community Inn, gay friendly. I’ve been to the
Park, the dance club. It’s not quite my scene, but that’s been around for eons. My sister
used to go there in high school to dance. But, a lot of the times, it was mainly getting
together with friends at their homes. That’s kind of what we all did. We did that. Or we
met at Macado’s for a Friday evening or something like that. That was about it.
11:40
JF: Great. And how were your friends supportive in the ways that you chose to come out
and things like that?
11:47
WC: When I came out, I wasn’t really what you would consider in the community. I just
came out when I was dating this girl. She’s not gay. It was just one of those fly by night
relationships that just developed. It wasn’t until I met Terri that I was kind of introduced
to the community. So, I didn’t have the typical, “I need to go to a gay place to learn to
come out.” I just kind of, there I was.
12:16
JF: Great. And how have your plans changed from when you were younger to where you
are today?
12:27
WC: As far as….? Life plans?
12:33

	&#13;  

5	&#13;  

�JF: Life plans, life goals.
12:37
WC: Well, eventually I would like to go back and get my bachelors. I have the associates
[degree] but I want to go on to get the bachelors wherever I land. At this particular
moment, my goal is, because my partner took a job in Raleigh, and we’ve been apart for
almost three years, so it’s time to come back together, so that’s why we are selling the
house here and gonna find a house down there and proceed with life at that point. The
kids are no longer in Roanoke. They’re in Denver now. So, I don’t have that to deal with
on a daily basis. I don’t know. We’ll see where life takes me at this point.
13:22
JF: Has the relationship changed with your children at all? With, you know, coming out?
How has that changed?
13:32
WC: They held a lot of guilt. Well, Spencer, my oldest, did hold a lot of that. We were in
a custody battle for about two years. And now that he’s an adult and looking back on it,
he would have rather done that a little differently, and not been so upset. But they’re very
welcoming. They love Terri to death. We’re never going to [all] get along, but that’s
typical of family. You know, as a kid you don’t know how to react to things, and it was
just a reaction. And instead of sitting down at the table and talking about it, the dad just
decided to take me to court and he won in the state of Virginia. That’s kind of what
happened.
14:26
JF: Could you tell me more about that? More about the court cases, like in what ways did
you struggle?
14:34
WC: Well, that was really difficult. When we first went to court, basically it was in
juvenile court and he [the judge?] just said “They’re gone. They go to him.” And we had
been divorced for several years and we had joint legal custody, but I had the primary
care, that means that the child lives with me primarily, and then goes to see the father,
you know, whenever the set time was, and so the judge just ripped them out and said
“No, now they’re with the dad.” And then, we had to have social services involved. The
children were given a guardian ad litem, which is a lawyer that is designated by the court
to handle them in all of this. So, yeah, it was difficult. It was really difficult to lose your
kids just like that, just because of who you are. Or because you know, you want to live
your life. And I was a little bit like, “you’re not going to tell me how to live my life.” But
going back, I really would’ve given it a lot more thought and not been so prideful at the
time, I probably would’ve changed my mind, because the judge did give me a chance. He
said, “if you’re willing to give up that relationship, you can have your kids.” And I was
like, “wait a minute, why can you tell me what I can and can’t do with my life?” Like,
nobody’s getting hurt but, I made the decision and... Needless to say, we lost that. That
was about a year’s worth of battling back and forth. And once that was settled, and when

	&#13;  

6	&#13;  

�the social services—and this is what really was the kicker—when the lady from social
services came in, she basically said, “this is my personal opinion,” and you’ll never be
able to see the court case, because it’s a closed case, because its sealed, but this is what
she said, “it is my personal opinion that people should not live together.” She didn’t say
gay people, she said people. Now, my children had already seen Michael Chiglinsky,
which was a child psychologist and he wrote up documentations saying there is no proof
whatsoever that gay relationships harm children in any way, shape, or form. The guardian
ad litem for the children could not find anything in my background or in our home visits
or anything that would lead to any conclusion that the relationship was harming my
children. It’s just, by the social worker saying that one statement, the judge said, “That’s
it, they’re going to dad.” So then after that, we proceeded to circuit court. By that point,
by the end of the circuit court, which was almost a year, the children had been in his
primary care for over a year and circuit court said, “First of all, juvenile court judge did
not do the right thing. He should’ve never ripped the kids away until after all the
documentation, all the visits, were done, and everything…” But he said “at this point, the
kids have already resettled, so I can’t fairly justify taking them away from their father at
this point.” So, that was tough. Then, next chapter. Then, when the father finally realized
that it takes quite a bit to take care of the kids, one by one, I got them back. So, that’s
how that worked out.
18:33
JF: Can you tell me more about that, the process of getting your children back?
18:39
WC: Well, Spencer, by that point, was about fourteen. He’s the oldest. You know, doing
the typical stuff: escaping out of the bedroom in the middle of the night to meet up with
the friends, or not coming home when he’s supposed to, and the dad would say, “well
what are you going to do about it?” and I would say, “well I can’t do anything about it, I
don’t live there. I can’t control what happens at your house, I can only control what
happens at my house. But I will stand by you with punishments and things of that
nature.” But it was just repetitive issues: skipping school, just your typical stuff. He
didn’t want to deal with it. He would keep asking me what I was going to do with them.
And I told him, “I can’t do anything.” So he ended up signing rights back over to me for
Spencer. Mason, on the other hand, which was the younger, stayed with him. And he
ended up ripping Mason out of the schools that he had grown up in, and taking him to the
county schools, and that was a complete disaster, so Mason started doing his now new
normal teenager activities and it just finally came down to where Mason did not want to
go back to his dad’s. And I had to say well, “I can’t allow you to stay here unless all of
this is reverted back to me.” So it took a little prodding but yeah, his dad eventually
signed him back over to me.
20:13
JF: Great.
20:15
WC: Life lesson: be careful what you ask for! [laughter]

	&#13;  

7	&#13;  

�20:33
JF: What are some things that you wish you were told growing up about LGBT issues?
20:42
WC: I don’t know that I knew what gay people were when I was growing up. I mean, I
knew what they were, but it wasn’t something that was discussed, or I never was around
anybody that knew they were gay. I don’t really…to think about it, I don’t think I ever
was around anybody that was gay. Or if they were gay, I didn’t know about it as a kid.
So, yeah.
21:16
JF: When and where did you realize that the heterosexual lifestyle wasn’t your forte?
21:26
WC: Probably when I met Leslie. That was the first relationship. Or I guess, yeah, I guess
I knew who she was in high school, but we finally met at work. But it answered a lot of
questions, I think. Probably from how I was feeling about things growing up in high
school… more so high school. As a young kid, I wouldn’t have known the difference. I
was a tomboy. I played with boys. But I still had a baby doll. I still played with baby
dolls. My sister played with Barbie’s, I rode her little scooter down the driveway all the
time, ruining half of her Barbie’s toys. Yeah, I was a tomboy. But it does answer a lot of
questions. Not that being a tomboy makes you gay or anything, ‘cause it doesn’t. But it
did kind of bring to light some things that stood out maybe.
22:26
JF: What are some of these things that stood out for you?
22:31
WC: Well, now I know why I like my best friend so much. [laughter] Probably that type
of thing, and why I always felt an attraction for women. I think women feel attractions for
each other anyway, whether they’re gay or straight, but mine was fairly strong. And I
didn’t know if that was normal or... I didn’t really question it. You just know. You grow
up, you get married, you have 2.5 kids and the white picket fence, that’s the way—well I
don’t know if you guys are, you guys are a different genre of people—but for females
that’s pretty much what it was. That’s what it was portrayed on TV and everywhere else
that you were. That’s what you did, and that’s what I did. Down in the south, you didn’t
hear a lot of gay stuff. It just wasn’t around.
23:30
JF: Do you feel as if the society’s viewpoints suppressed your self-expressing ways?
23:40
WC: Well, I mean in high school we had a couple of gay boys. I didn’t know any females
that were. There were always the rumors, but we had a couple that actually went to prom.
I don’t recall anything ever being scrutinized over it, or anybody ever being… I didn’t

	&#13;  

8	&#13;  

�really hang out with them just because they weren’t in my clique. But no, I don’t recall
anything ugly being said or done or, not like some of the things that happen today. Just
not something I went about my day thinking about.
24:33
JF: What has been one challenge that you’ve had to overcome in life, and how did you do
so?
24:41
WC: One challenge… I don’t know, there’re so many challenges. And I’m not real sure
that I’ve gotten over any of them to be honest. I’d probably say one of the biggest…are
you talking gay stuff or just anything?
25:10
JF: Anything.
25:16
WC: I’d probably say my relationship with my mother. Just, I would say in the last
several years, we’ve actually had a relationship. She didn’t grow up in the best family.
Granddaddy beat the tar out of all of his kids. I don’t mean just whipping them, I mean
beating them. So, she’s not always the easiest person to get close to. Very moody. So
probably that’s been one of the biggest challenges, and I still have challenges with that
relationship today.
25:58
JF: Okay. And what would be one of the biggest challenges identifying as LGBT?
26:09
WC: I would probably say the biggest challenge is the fear of community acceptance,
especially in employment. In a town, even though Roanoke seems to be kind of large, its
not. ‘Cause everyone knows everybody, ‘cause a lot of us have grown up here and you
know, you don’t want to walk down the street and kiss your girlfriend, or your boyfriend
if you’re male, and then go on a job interview and be remembered, and then that person
saying, “No, I’m not going to hire that person because they’re gay.” Even though there
are laws out there that state [that employment discrimination is illegal]... it still happens.
It’s a small town. And it’s an ass backwards town.
27:00
JF: From what you remember, what was Roanoke like in regards to different sexualities
and preferences? What were their attitudes, supportiveness, means of that?
27:12
WC: As far as the community is concerned, I couldn’t say. Honestly, I guess the only
experience that I cay say is, I’ve never had to endure any struggles in that, personally. To
this date, anybody that I’ve ever worked with, hasn’t had a problem with it. But I know
eventually, in the south, you will run into somebody that has that problem. That’s the

	&#13;  

9	&#13;  

�fear. I would probably gander to say that the majority of people probably my age group,
which is probably around the fifty-year age mark, that grew up in the ‘80s and the ‘90s,
even the late ‘70s, probably are pretty liberal about it, unless they just grew up in that
really hardcore conservative family. I think that they’re pretty much well, “Whatever, do
whatever you want as long as you don’t do anything illegal, I don’t care.” So you know, I
never really run into too much of it. Now, when you go to a bar and a gentleman might
find out that you’re gay, and the whole well, “Try me out and then you won’t be gay
anymore.” That kind of stuff happens all the time. It is what it is. You just emasculate the
hell out of them. Move on with your thing.
29:00
JF: Can you tell us more about a time when that has happened?
29:04
WC: Oh there’s been plenty of times that that’s happened. Oh yeah. I just play along with
it like, “Oh yeah, sure. How big is it?” or “how small?” You do all those funny things just
to emasculate them. And then you go well, “Thank you very much for your time but no
thank you I’m happy where I’m at.” Or you just get up. It just depends on the mood. But
there’s been so many times that over the course of almost twenty years now that I don’t
complain to them after a while. It’s just the same old thing. And those are in straight bars,
not gay bars.
29:46
JF: So what has been the greatest changes that you’ve seen or experienced within this
area?
29:56
WC: Repeat the question.
30:00
JF: What have been the greatest changes that you’ve seen or experienced within the
Roanoke area?
30:09
WC: As far as the gay thing or just any?
30:10
JF: Both.
30:13
WC: Geez these are hard questions. I would probably say as far as the gay thing,
Roanoke has a very high populous, a very high gay populous and yeah I think for the
most part they’re fairly welcome. I don’t know of any… We did run into somebody
recently—and I totally forgot about this—[a] transgender [woman], she, I guess you
could say, was jumped two nights before and you could tell that he had a cut on his nose
or she had a cut on her nose. It’s sad that that happens, now whether that’s isolated, I

	&#13;  

10	&#13;  

�don’t know because I’m not out so I don’t know, but I would probably say that for the
most part that Roanoke is fairly accepting. I don’t think that we as a gay community have
to stay in one little corner. I see gay people out at straight bars and I see straight people at
gay bars. I don’t really think that we have to sit in a pocket somewhere, which is nice.
We’re not San Francisco, but we’re getting there.
31:58
JF: Now how was the LGBT community in Roanoke different when you said that you
lived in Pittsburgh?
32:06
WC: Well that was in back in the ‘80s. I couldn’t tell you about any gay stuff up there.
First of all I wasn’t legal, so I wasn’t able to go out to bars. I was only 18. So as far as
that, I can’t really answer that question.
32:28
JF: Okay, what is something or somethings that you wish that you could tell your
younger self going through the transition of openly LGBT?
32:42
WC: Just do it. Don’t worry. Get rid of the fear. Deal with the fear.
32:53
JF: What are some of these fears that you’ve experienced?
32:56
WC: Well again the fear of, you know if I go to apply for a job, is that going to affect my
chances of being hired. Am I going to get jumped? There’s still fears no matter what that
you may... When we were in Dr. [Gregory] Rosenthal’s class last semester and we went
to downtown Roanoke and he was doing the gay walk.1 He wasn’t walking gay, but he
was pointing out all the gay places in Roanoke and there were rednecks that drove by in a
truck and in the back of my mind, are they going to get out of the truck? It wouldn’t
surprise me if they did, but that fear still lingers and it always will until this world
becomes 100% accepting of everybody and anybody, it’s always going to be there. I
would probably say do what you need to do. Live your life, just live your life.
34:16
JF: Do you feel Roanoke to be a safe place for LGBT students and adults?
34:24
JF: Relatively safe, I mean other than you can always be mugged. Even the transgender
[person], he was young, I call him a kid. He was jumped, but I don’t know if that’s really
what that was. Was it because that he or she was transgender or was it because they were
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1	&#13;  This	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  October	&#13;  2015	&#13;  test-­‐run	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Downtown	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  LGBTQ	&#13;  History	&#13;  Walking	&#13;  Tour,	&#13;  a	&#13;  

project	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Southwest	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  LGBTQ+	&#13;  History	&#13;  Project	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  scheduled	&#13;  to	&#13;  launch	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  public	&#13;  in	&#13;  
September	&#13;  2016.	&#13;  	&#13;  

	&#13;  

11	&#13;  

�in the wrong place at the wrong time? What’s the best thing to do but to jump? My kid
got jumped not too long ago, about a month ago. I don’t know. I don’t think they’re any
less safe than anybody else. I have no problem with this, don’t get me wrong on this, but
when you look the part, that can open up issues. It can, it’s sad that it does, but it does. If
a female walks out and she looks like a man, you get some redneck in a truck that doesn’t
like that, then you know what can happen. The same thing if you have a very feminine
gay man or a transgender [woman] that dresses up in dresses. It’s unfortunate, but it can
lead to some altercations, but it’s the world we live in.
36:04
JF: Have you personally witnessed any of these kinds of altercations?
36:09
WC: No, I haven’t personally. My nephew came out as transgender about a year ago.
He’s 17 years old and already in transition to take the hormones and things and it’s kind
of like what I had to say to my sister. They live in Seattle and I said “Keep him out in
Seattle, don’t bring him here because I can guarantee you that he will get hassled in some
form.” Not beat up or anything, but they will hassle him because I don’t think that
transgenders are as accepted here as if you’re a lesbian or just a gay man. It’s probably
more of the rhetoric that’s going on in our political scene right now that is causing war.
I’ve been around transgenders, they don’t bother me any. Like I said live your life, do
what you want to do. As long as you’re not doing anything illegal or hurting anybody
then I don’t care. Yes, to answer your question, I think Roanoke is relatively safe, but yet
you’re going to have pockets of issues. It just is what it is.
37:29
JF: So have you ever experienced any negative reactions when you have identified as a
lesbian openly?
37:38
WC: No, other than in a bar. Some guy thinking that he can switch you because you’re
not what he apparently wants you to be. Other than that, no. I mean that’s negative
enough, but not blatant harassment.
38:01
JF: So, what is some of the best news that you’ve gotten and what made it so important?
38:28
WC: I don’t know, that both my children had both ten toes and ten fingers and were
healthy. I guess that’s probably the best thing to know. I don’t know, being accepted here
in Roanoke was pretty awesome. No, I would say my kids were probably the best news.
38:59
JF: So how has the LGBT community in Roanoke changed since you came out or how
has it stayed the same?

	&#13;  

12	&#13;  

�39:08
WC: In Roanoke itself, Roanoke city or Roanoke County? This may just be getting older,
the fact that, you know what, I don’t care anymore what people think. If Terri and I are in
the car and she’s a very kissy person, so she’ll lean over and I don’t care if anybody sees
that, I just don’t care. Now I’m respectful, I’m not going to walk into a room full of old
ladies and have it out or get down or anything like that. I do want to show respect, but at
the same time, in my own space, I’m going to do what I want to do, as well as everybody
should, but in a tasteful, respectful way… Still a little traditional there.
40:26
JF: You mention your nephew being transgender. is there a relationship between the two
of you?
40:31
WC: Not really, gosh I haven’t been out to Seattle in a long time. In 2005 I think, so it’s
been awhile. I haven’t seen him, I mean I get pictures of him and everything, but I
haven’t seen him in a while. Great kid. Beautiful kid. He has changed his name to a
female name. When my sister called me and told me, it was kind of like “oh wow.” I
think it’s easier if it’s not your family. I didn’t have a problem with it whatsoever, but
what I fear for her is what she’s going to face. That’s the fear for her, but if she’s happy,
I’m happy. They’re all in therapy to work through the processes. Also another thing, the
only other reservation I had about it if it were my child is, she was so young. Seventeen is
very young to make a life-altering decision. I would have rather her wait several years,
especially with the hormones. Once you start the hormones you can’t go back. But other
than that, even my kids, you know it’s my cousin. Knowing what the transgender… I
don’t think the gay and lesbian scene has anything on the transgenders in what they have
to go through. I guess our passes already happen, we’ve already, I haven’t, but so many
people, the Harvey Milks and all that, paved the way for us. I don’t even think a whole
lot of our friends even had to go through a lot of it. Some did. One of our friends got shot,
down at Backstreet Cafe. Yeah, Backstreet. Down on Salem Avenue when the gentleman
went in there and shot everything up.2 The transgender, I don’t… I feel bad for that
community. I really do, because of what they have to go through
43:13
JF: Do you feel as if Roanoke is not very supportive towards the transgender community?
43:27
WC: That I haven’t had a whole lot of experience in, but I would probably have to say
that it’s going to take them awhile, a long while. I’m not so sure that they would be
physically aggressive towards a transgender [person], but I’m not sure that they’ll be
overly mentally accepting, which can stand in the way physically of a transgender
[person]. Using bathrooms and things of that nature. I don’t care. I use men’s bathrooms
all the time because you can’t get into the women’s. It doesn’t really matter to me. Yeah,
it’s going to be awhile. Although I did like to see Charlotte passing the bathroom—I
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
2	&#13;  She	&#13;  refers	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Backstreet	&#13;  Café	&#13;  shooting	&#13;  of	&#13;  September	&#13;  22,	&#13;  2000.	&#13;  One	&#13;  person	&#13;  was	&#13;  killed,	&#13;  and	&#13;  six	&#13;  
were	&#13;  wounded.	&#13;  
	&#13;  

13	&#13;  

�don’t know if it was an ordinance or a bill or whatever—but the city of Charlotte, they
just passed that transgenders can pick whatever bathroom that they identify with, gender
wise, so I thought that was good.3 Now, there’s going to be a fight on it, just because it’s
the Bible belt. If Charlotte can do it, the rest of us can get there. The rest of us can get
there.
44:41
JF: Do you have a particular message to share with today’s youth or future generations of
LGBT…?
44:58
WC: I guess I could say that you’re going to have to constantly fight. You just are, it’s
going to be what it is. That can be whether you’re female, not gay or anything. We
females fight for equality. It’s just going to be a constant fight for equality. The sad fact
of it is, if you look the part, it’s going to be an even bigger fight. That’s going to be the
sad part, however don’t give the fight up. Don’t change who you are. Keep the fight up,
because there are allies out there that are right with you irregardless. So just know that.
45:51
JF: What has provided you the greatest satisfaction in life?
46:12
WC: It’s a double edged sword, but I would probably say my kids
46:17
JF: Can you tell me more?
46:21
WC: I never wanted kids. I really didn’t, it just happened and I think once you do have
kids, it’s a hard process. It’s hard. It’s a struggle. Every day is almost a struggle, but you
look at them and they’re gorgeous. You constantly have this hope for them, even when
they screw up. My kids have screwed up. They’re those type of kids that have to learn the
hard way. They have their problems, but with kids there’s always a hope. You know, and
they’re going to make the world better. So you guys have a lot of work ahead of you, a
lot of work ahead of you, because we keep screwing it up… but yeah, I would probably
say my kids. They’re my greatest heartache and joy. That’s the best way to put it there,
heartache and joy at the same time.
47:28
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
3	&#13;  On	&#13;  February	&#13;  22,	&#13;  2016—four	&#13;  days	&#13;  before	&#13;  this	&#13;  interview	&#13;  was	&#13;  conducted—the	&#13;  Charlotte	&#13;  City	&#13;  Council	&#13;  
approved	&#13;  legislation	&#13;  prohibiting	&#13;  discrimination	&#13;  in	&#13;  public	&#13;  facilities	&#13;  (including	&#13;  bathrooms)	&#13;  based	&#13;  on	&#13;  
sexual	&#13;  orientation	&#13;  or	&#13;  gender	&#13;  identity.	&#13;  This	&#13;  legislation	&#13;  gave	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  persons	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  to	&#13;  use	&#13;  
whichever	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  conforms	&#13;  to	&#13;  their	&#13;  gender	&#13;  identity.	&#13;  On	&#13;  March	&#13;  23,	&#13;  2016,	&#13;  the	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina	&#13;  state	&#13;  
legislature	&#13;  passed	&#13;  the	&#13;  Public	&#13;  Facilities	&#13;  Privacy	&#13;  &amp;	&#13;  Security	&#13;  Act,	&#13;  or	&#13;  HB2,	&#13;  which	&#13;  overturned	&#13;  Charlotte’s	&#13;  
law	&#13;  and	&#13;  prohibits	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  municipality	&#13;  from	&#13;  passing	&#13;  similar	&#13;  legislation.	&#13;  	&#13;  

	&#13;  

14	&#13;  

�JF: Do you feel more comfortable that you are now able to self-express and self-identify
as lesbian. Do you feel like there has been a burden removed or…?
47:45
WC: No I never felt that way, and I think it’s because I didn’t have these struggles to
come out. I think it would have just happened anyway, but I didn’t have my family
discard me or turn their backs on me. I didn’t have friends turn their backs on me.
Everybody just accepted it. Everybody still loved me for who I was, and I had good
friends. I didn’t have that hardship, so I can’t speak to that hardship. So there is no real
burden, I don’t think. The only thing I could maybe place as a burden is that I don’t live a
straight life anymore. Do I think about it sometimes, could I ever go back? Probably not.
If I absolutely had to for some reason could I ever go back? No, I couldn’t because it’s
just not… I still find men attractive. I just don’t want to be with one. To me, I could if I
had to, I mean if I was absolutely forced to then I could do it, and this is the weird thing
about it is… if anybody looked at me they would probably say “Yes, it was a choice.” In
some degree it was a choice. Do I believe that people are born being gay? Yeah, I just
happen to be able to do both and did both, but I’m comfortable with where I’m at right
now, and this is where I’m going to be. I don’t know what my future holds. Maybe a man
would walk right in my life tomorrow and sweep me off my feet. I don’t know, I don’t
know, but for right now this is who I am, and this is who I am going to be.

JF: How is your life changed because you’ve experienced both the heterosexual and
homosexual lifestyle? How are they different other than the clear…?
49:54
WC: Men are simple. Women are complex. [laughter] Again, men are simple and women
are complex. Women are difficult, very difficult to live with. Men, you know, just give
them a remote and a sports program and they’re good to go. Women analyze everything.
We do, we just analyze everything and then that time of the month. My god, it’s like
putting you know… a scorpion and a tarantula in the same room and who’s going to win.
You know, or even two scorpions in the same room. Which one is going to come out
alive? That’s what two women are like, unless they just have that kind of really laid back
personality. Terri and I don’t have laid back personalities. [laughter] But at the same
time, the great thing about it is that we know what we’re going through. We know that
we’re going to be upset. We know why for the most part we’re going to be upset. We
know what our bodies are doing. Men are like “What are you doing? Why are you bitchy
today?” Well you know what, if you knew what I was going through! It comes with its
ups and downs, but I think I like being with a woman because a woman I can identify. I
don’t identify with men. Does that answer that question?
51:52
JF: Do you feel as if living with a female, which that’s what you’re in the transition of
doing again, how does that make you feel? Are you ready to experience that or are you
nervous?

	&#13;

�52:06
WC: Oh, we still have a home together. Her job is just in Raleigh, so she comes home on
her days off, but for the last three years we’ve been doing that. There have been a couple
of weeks where she hasn’t been able to come home and we’re not together, and it’s
always a transition when she comes back. We’ve talked about that, to actually 100% be
again in the same household. It’s going to be a huge transition. There’s going to be some
fireworks I’m sure. There always are. Always fireworks. She’s a wonderful person, but
again we’re very high spirited people and we’re leaders. Putting two leaders in the same
household sometimes makes for good fireworks, let’s put it that way.
53:14
JF: Do you feel as you would be able living in Charlotte, leaving the Roanoke
community—[living in] Raleigh, I’m sorry—able to openly express your sexuality?
53:32
WC: You know, I have a friend. We were talking about this recently. She was in the
Navy and she did live in Raleigh for a while. This was back in the late ‘90s and she says,
“You know, now don’t forget that when you go to Raleigh that you’re in the heat of the
Bible belt.” I was like “oh, so are we here in Roanoke, so what’s your point?” I think it’s
changed. Raleigh is kind of like Atlanta. You know, I lived in Atlanta. My oldest son was
born in Atlanta. It’s so transient, a lot of imported people, if that makes any sense. Just
the industry, it brings people from the north, from the west. You have this melting pot of
a city and I don’t honestly think that it’s going to be that rough. Honestly, in the city.
Now, when you get out to the small suburbs… maybe, maybe probably more
conservative, but in the heat of Raleigh, I don’t really fear that I’m going to have to deal
with too much of that. I hope.
54:42
JF: Have you left anything unsaid today? Is there anything else you’d like to share?
54:55
WC: I don’t think so. I don’t have an explicit story. I wish I did. It’s kind of like the scary
stories about having babies. All these nightmares about birthing babies, I don’t have one
of those either. Mine were quick and easy. No medication, no nothing. Au natural, so I
don’t have the horror stories. So it’s kind of like that, I don’t have a horror story. Which I
feel very fortunate of.
55:20
JF: Great, so overall, would you say overall that your transition of coming out and
identifying as lesbian has been a positive for you?
55:29
WC: Yeah, for me. I can’t say or speak to too many negatives about it. It’s all good.
55:44
JF: Well thank you for your time.

MW:	&#13;  Okay,	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  are	&#13;  at	&#13;  Sam	&#13;  Winkler’s	&#13;  house.	&#13;  My	&#13;  name	&#13;  is	&#13;  Marlee	&#13;  Wertz.	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  
Wednesday,	&#13;  February	&#13;  24th	&#13;  2016	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  is	&#13;  3:00	&#13;  pm.	&#13;  And	&#13;  Sam	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  state	&#13;  
your	&#13;  name	&#13;  please?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:26	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Sam	&#13;  Winkler.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:27	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Alright,	&#13;  thank	&#13;  you.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  Sam,	&#13;  where	&#13;  are	&#13;  you	&#13;  originally	&#13;  from?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:32	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  originally	&#13;  from	&#13;  Winston-­‐Salem,	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:35	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  And	&#13;  what	&#13;  brought	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:38	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  My	&#13;  job.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:39	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Your	&#13;  job,	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  How	&#13;  was	&#13;  life	&#13;  growing	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  Winston-­‐Salem?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:44	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  actually	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  born	&#13;  in	&#13;  Winston,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  around	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Winston,	&#13;  I	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  mountainous	&#13;  area	&#13;  of	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  here,	&#13;  there,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
everywhere.	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  settle	&#13;  down	&#13;  completely	&#13;  until	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  in	&#13;  1981.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:01	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Okay,	&#13;  so	&#13;  what	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  describe	&#13;  your	&#13;  childhood	&#13;  like	&#13;  with	&#13;  moving	&#13;  around	&#13;  
and…?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:07	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Haphazard	&#13;  at	&#13;  best,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  broken	&#13;  family.	&#13;  My	&#13;  mom	&#13;  and	&#13;  dad	&#13;  
divorced	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  three	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  moved	&#13;  from,	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of,	&#13;  toward	&#13;  the	&#13;  post.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  
lived	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  sister	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while,	&#13;  I	&#13;  lived	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  brother	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while,	&#13;  I	&#13;  lived	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  
other	&#13;  sister	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while.	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  out	&#13;  on	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  senior	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  school.	&#13;  
Worked	&#13;  on	&#13;  second	&#13;  shift,	&#13;  maintained	&#13;  an	&#13;  A/B	&#13;  average	&#13;  and	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  scholarship	&#13;  and	&#13;  went	&#13;  
to	&#13;  college.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:43	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2	&#13;  

�MW:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  remarkable.	&#13;  Wow,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  great.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you,	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  say,	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  
that	&#13;  your	&#13;  childhood	&#13;  made	&#13;  you	&#13;  work	&#13;  really	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:55	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  so.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  coming	&#13;  up	&#13;  that	&#13;  way	&#13;  you	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  go	&#13;  that	&#13;  extra	&#13;  mile	&#13;  to	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  
above	&#13;  and	&#13;  beyond	&#13;  what	&#13;  is	&#13;  expected	&#13;  of	&#13;  you.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:07	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Absolutely.	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  in	&#13;  school	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  working	&#13;  
second	&#13;  shift	&#13;  what	&#13;  were	&#13;  you	&#13;  doing?	&#13;  What	&#13;  were	&#13;  your	&#13;  interests	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  
school?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:17	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Basically	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  time	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  outside	&#13;  
interests	&#13;  because,	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  working	&#13;  [and]	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  support	&#13;  myself.	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  
into	&#13;  the	&#13;  Air	&#13;  Force	&#13;  after	&#13;  high	&#13;  school.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  MP	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  Air	&#13;  Force	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:37	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  And	&#13;  what’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  MP?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:38	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Hmm?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:38	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  What’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  MP?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:39	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Oh,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  sorry.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  military	&#13;  police.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:40	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Oh,	&#13;  gotcha.	&#13;  So	&#13;  where	&#13;  were	&#13;  you	&#13;  stationed	&#13;  or	&#13;  where	&#13;  were	&#13;  you	&#13;  living	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  
went	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  air	&#13;  force?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:49	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  Winston-­‐Salem.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:51	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  You	&#13;  were	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  Winston-­‐Salem.	&#13;  Okay,	&#13;  so	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  your	&#13;  career	&#13;  brought	&#13;  you	&#13;  
to	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  or	&#13;  your	&#13;  job	&#13;  brought	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  So	&#13;  what	&#13;  job	&#13;  was	&#13;  that?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:01	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  started	&#13;  out	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  color	&#13;  designer	&#13;  for	&#13;  furniture	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  from	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  into	&#13;  
health	&#13;  safety	&#13;  and	&#13;  environmental	&#13;  work	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  that	&#13;  for	&#13;  probably	&#13;  25	&#13;  years.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:12	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Wow,	&#13;  so	&#13;  are	&#13;  you	&#13;  now	&#13;  retired?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3	&#13;  

�	&#13;  
3:14	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  retired	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  ago.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:16	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Congratulations,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  wonderful.	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  1980s	&#13;  
what	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  describe	&#13;  it	&#13;  like?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:26	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  1981	&#13;  and	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  interesting	&#13;  city	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  For	&#13;  
one	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  not	&#13;  ever	&#13;  lived	&#13;  anywhere	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  female	&#13;  impersonators	&#13;  on	&#13;  
the	&#13;  street	&#13;  corners	&#13;  soliciting	&#13;  business	&#13;  and	&#13;  this	&#13;  went	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  As	&#13;  a	&#13;  
matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  fact	&#13;  down	&#13;  around	&#13;  where	&#13;  Billy’s	&#13;  Ritz	&#13;  is	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  called	&#13;  “the	&#13;  block.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  as	&#13;  
they	&#13;  started	&#13;  to	&#13;  clean	&#13;  up	&#13;  that	&#13;  area	&#13;  they	&#13;  pushed	&#13;  them	&#13;  farther	&#13;  and	&#13;  farther	&#13;  out.	&#13;  But	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was,	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  remember	&#13;  being	&#13;  at	&#13;  work	&#13;  and	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  girls	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  office	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Be	&#13;  careful	&#13;  
if	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  downtown	&#13;  to	&#13;  pick	&#13;  up	&#13;  a	&#13;  female”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  like	&#13;  “why?”	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Because	&#13;  
it	&#13;  might	&#13;  not	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  female.”	&#13;  [laughing]	&#13;  And	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  like	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  I	&#13;  understand!”	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
But,	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  involved	&#13;  actually	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Leather	&#13;  community	&#13;  almost	&#13;  as	&#13;  soon	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  into	&#13;  
Roanoke.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  leather	&#13;  club	&#13;  called	&#13;  the	&#13;  Centurions	&#13;  which	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  member	&#13;  of	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  member	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  for	&#13;  quite	&#13;  some	&#13;  time.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  president	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
Road	&#13;  Captain	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  learned	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  lifestyle.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  
interesting	&#13;  because	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  automatically	&#13;  assume	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  lifestyle	&#13;  
was	&#13;  S&amp;M	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  be	&#13;  farther	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  truth.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean,	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  
aspect	&#13;  of	&#13;  life	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people,	&#13;  but	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  part	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  at	&#13;  all	&#13;  what	&#13;  
the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  community	&#13;  was	&#13;  about.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  probably	&#13;  the	&#13;  best	&#13;  way	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  
describe	&#13;  it…	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  goes	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  a	&#13;  newspaper]	&#13;  This	&#13;  is,	&#13;  I	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  write	&#13;  for	&#13;  this	&#13;  paper.	&#13;  This	&#13;  
was	&#13;  called	&#13;  Shout	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  newspaper	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  And	&#13;  basically	&#13;  a	&#13;  statement	&#13;  
that	&#13;  I	&#13;  made	&#13;  many,	&#13;  many	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago	&#13;  is	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  reading	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  newspaper]	&#13;  “Leather	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;

wearing	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Leather	&#13;  is	&#13;  new,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  different,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  erotic,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  adventurous.	&#13;  Leather	&#13;  has	&#13;

changed	&#13;  over	&#13;  the	&#13;  years,	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  me	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  write	&#13;  for	&#13;  them	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  referring	&#13;  to	&#13;

MW:	&#13;  What	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  does	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  club	&#13;  do?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:35	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Okay,	&#13;  basically	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  together	&#13;  and	&#13;  party	&#13;  
together.	&#13;  We	&#13;  have	&#13;  what	&#13;  we	&#13;  called	&#13;  “runs”	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  have	&#13;  an	&#13;  outside	&#13;  run	&#13;  which	&#13;  
was	&#13;  more	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  camping	&#13;  trip,	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  imagine	&#13;  a	&#13;  hundred	&#13;  guys	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  camping	&#13;  trip.	&#13;  
Or,	&#13;  sometimes	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  held	&#13;  in	&#13;  hotels.	&#13;  We’ve	&#13;  had	&#13;  them	&#13;  before	&#13;  at	&#13;  Patrick	&#13;  Henry,	&#13;  
we’ve	&#13;  had	&#13;  them	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  Sheraton,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  different	&#13;  clubs	&#13;  have	&#13;  cocktail	&#13;  parties	&#13;  so	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  
basically	&#13;  one	&#13;  big	&#13;  party	&#13;  from	&#13;  Friday	&#13;  afternoon	&#13;  until	&#13;  about	&#13;  noon	&#13;  on	&#13;  Sunday.	&#13;  So	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
fun,	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  getting	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet	&#13;  new	&#13;  people	&#13;  and	&#13;  things.	&#13;  I	&#13;  will	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you	&#13;  that	&#13;  probably	&#13;  the	&#13;  
leather	&#13;  community	&#13;  over	&#13;  the	&#13;  years	&#13;  changed.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  first	&#13;  became	&#13;  involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
leather	&#13;  community	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  respect	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  elder	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
leather	&#13;  community.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  like	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  to	&#13;  respect	&#13;  your	&#13;  grandfather	&#13;  or	&#13;  
your	&#13;  father.	&#13;  They	&#13;  taught	&#13;  you	&#13;  the	&#13;  true	&#13;  ways	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  community.	&#13;  For	&#13;  example,	&#13;  if	&#13;  
you	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  master’s	&#13;  cap	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  what	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  called	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  points	&#13;  to	&#13;  his	&#13;  master’s	&#13;  cap],	&#13;  
you	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  just	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  buy	&#13;  that,	&#13;  you	&#13;  earned	&#13;  it.	&#13;  When	&#13;  someone	&#13;  felt	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  time	&#13;  
that	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  proven	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  community,	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  presented	&#13;  to	&#13;  you.	&#13;  Today	&#13;  
it’s	&#13;  more	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  “Hey,	&#13;  let’s	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  get	&#13;  us	&#13;  a	&#13;  cap.”	&#13;  Also,	&#13;  people	&#13;  back	&#13;  then	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  
particular	&#13;  about	&#13;  their	&#13;  master’s	&#13;  cap.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Hey,	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  wear	&#13;  
your	&#13;  master’s	&#13;  cap”	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  an	&#13;  automatic	&#13;  “No,	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  not.”	&#13;  You	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  earn	&#13;  
it,	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  wearing	&#13;  it.	&#13;  	&#13;  As	&#13;  a	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  fact,	&#13;  I	&#13;  probably	&#13;  would	&#13;  not	&#13;  have	&#13;  even	&#13;  let	&#13;  most	&#13;

�people	&#13;  try	&#13;  mine	&#13;  on.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  respect	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  work	&#13;  that	&#13;  goes	&#13;  into	&#13;  
earning	&#13;  it.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
8:44	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Absolutely.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
8:45	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  But	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  changed.	&#13;  And	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  clubs	&#13;  now	&#13;  are	&#13;  dwindling	&#13;  away	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  
lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  reason	&#13;  for	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  internet.	&#13;  People	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  need	&#13;  leather	&#13;  
clubs	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet	&#13;  people	&#13;  of	&#13;  like	&#13;  persuasion	&#13;  because	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  online	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  find	&#13;  
anybody	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  online	&#13;  just	&#13;  real	&#13;  quick.	&#13;  So	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  your	&#13;  younger	&#13;  
people	&#13;  are	&#13;  no	&#13;  longer	&#13;  interested	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  clubs	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  a	&#13;  shame	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  
them	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  dwindle	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  Did	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
of	&#13;  traveling.	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  just	&#13;  give	&#13;  you	&#13;  an	&#13;  example.	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  goes	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  leather	&#13;  vest]	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  my	&#13;  
leather	&#13;  vest	&#13;  and	&#13;  each	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  these	&#13;  represents	&#13;  either	&#13;  a	&#13;  club,	&#13;  another	&#13;  leather	&#13;  club,	&#13;  or	&#13;  a	&#13;  
leather	&#13;  run	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  also	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  the	&#13;  president	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Southeast	&#13;  
conference	&#13;  of	&#13;  clubs	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  32	&#13;  leather	&#13;  clubs.	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;  
10:02	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  one	&#13;  vest	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  another	&#13;  one	&#13;  [laughing].	&#13;  But	&#13;  some	&#13;  leather	&#13;  
guys	&#13;  road	&#13;  bikes.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  ride.	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  shows	&#13;  pictures	&#13;  of	&#13;  him	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  past]	&#13;

parties.	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  did	&#13;  crazy	&#13;  things.	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  leather	&#13;  run	&#13;  at	&#13;  Patrick	&#13;  Henry	&#13;  and	&#13;  for	&#13;  our	&#13;  
cocktail	&#13;  party,	&#13;  our	&#13;  opening	&#13;  cocktail	&#13;  party,	&#13;  we	&#13;  did	&#13;  a	&#13;  take	&#13;  off	&#13;  on	&#13;  Gone	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  Wind	&#13;  
where	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  club,	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  part,	&#13;  dressed	&#13;  as	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  from	&#13;  
Gone	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  Wind.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  to	&#13;  give	&#13;  you	&#13;  an	&#13;  example	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  shows	&#13;  more	&#13;  pictures]	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  
me	&#13;  as	&#13;  Belle	&#13;  Watling,	&#13;  madam	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  whore	&#13;  house	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  and	&#13;  MW	&#13;  laughing].	&#13;  So,	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  
said,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  some	&#13;  more	&#13;  examples	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  banquet	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  always	&#13;  
had	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  shows	&#13;  more	&#13;  pictures].	&#13;  You	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  anywhere	&#13;  from	&#13;  10	&#13;  to	&#13;  15	&#13;  cocktail	&#13;  
parties.	&#13;  They’d	&#13;  start	&#13;  on	&#13;  Friday	&#13;  afternoon	&#13;  and	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  until	&#13;  1	&#13;  or	&#13;  2	&#13;  o’	&#13;  clock	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
morning.	&#13;  Then	&#13;  they’d	&#13;  start	&#13;  at	&#13;  breakfast	&#13;  the	&#13;  next	&#13;  morning	&#13;  with	&#13;  eye	&#13;  openers.	&#13;  A	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
fun.	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;

Washington	&#13;  D.C.	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  the…	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  the	&#13;  name	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  hotel,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  right	&#13;  downtown	&#13;  Washington	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  decided	&#13;  their	&#13;  cocktail	&#13;  party	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  
were	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  Ethel	&#13;  Merman	&#13;  Bathing	&#13;  Beauties	&#13;  so	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  imagine	&#13;  a	&#13;  bunch	&#13;  of	&#13;  
guys	&#13;  in	&#13;  one-­‐piece	&#13;  bathing	&#13;  suits.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  almost	&#13;  like	&#13;  college	&#13;  fraternity	&#13;  type	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  
same	&#13;  thing	&#13;  is	&#13;  true	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  clubs.	&#13;  	&#13;

MW:	&#13;  How	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  out	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  club?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12:34	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  involved	&#13;  with	&#13;  someone	&#13;  before	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  
leather	&#13;  clubs.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  basically	&#13;  brought	&#13;  me	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  clubs.	&#13;  Then	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  
moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  club	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  joined	&#13;  the	&#13;  club	&#13;  here.	&#13;  
That	&#13;  club	&#13;  eventually	&#13;  disbanded	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  another	&#13;  club	&#13;  called	&#13;  the	&#13;  Rogues	&#13;  
which	&#13;  is	&#13;  where	&#13;  the	&#13;  patch	&#13;  on	&#13;  my	&#13;  vest	&#13;  is	&#13;  from.	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  be	&#13;  associate	&#13;  members	&#13;  of	&#13;  
clubs	&#13;  from	&#13;  other	&#13;  states,	&#13;  like	&#13;  Code	&#13;  12	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  club	&#13;  in	&#13;  Jacksonville,	&#13;  Florida	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  
associate	&#13;  member	&#13;  of.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  traveled	&#13;  quite	&#13;  a	&#13;  bit.	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  ride	&#13;  my	&#13;  bike.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  anything	&#13;  
unusual	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  ride	&#13;  to	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  on	&#13;  my	&#13;  motorcycle	&#13;  and	&#13;  Ohio	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  wherever.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  pack	&#13;  everything	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  want	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  weekend	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  back	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  motorcycle	&#13;  
and	&#13;  take	&#13;  off	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  weekend.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;

[have	&#13;  to]	&#13;  do	&#13;  like	&#13;  you	&#13;  said…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:47	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  for	&#13;  one	&#13;  thing	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  learn	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  history	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  clubs	&#13;  and	&#13;  
there	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  deep	&#13;  history	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  clubs.	&#13;  As	&#13;  a	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  fact,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  leather	&#13;  
archives	&#13;  in	&#13;  Chicago	&#13;  that	&#13;  has	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  clubs’	&#13;  information	&#13;  and	&#13;  things	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.1	&#13;  
And	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  the	&#13;  big	&#13;  thing	&#13;  was	&#13;  learning	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  not	&#13;  automatically	&#13;  assume	&#13;  
that	&#13;  just	&#13;  because	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  is,	&#13;  quote,	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  club	&#13;  that	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  into,	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  
to	&#13;  tie	&#13;  you	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  beat	&#13;  you	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  be	&#13;  more	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  truth.	&#13;  
Granted,	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  people	&#13;  out	&#13;  there	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  But	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  people	&#13;  out	&#13;  there	&#13;  
like	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  every	&#13;  aspect	&#13;  of	&#13;  life	&#13;  that	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  their	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  I	&#13;  tend	&#13;  to	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  stay	&#13;  away	&#13;  from	&#13;  
that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  because	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  me	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  more	&#13;  into	&#13;  sharing	&#13;  and	&#13;  having	&#13;  a	&#13;  
good	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  enjoying	&#13;  as	&#13;  opposed	&#13;  to	&#13;  the...	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  demonstrations.	&#13;  
Now,	&#13;  I	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  into	&#13;  pain,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  wasn’t,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  paddle	&#13;  that…	&#13;  it	&#13;  
used	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar	&#13;  somewhere	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  take	&#13;  one	&#13;  hit	&#13;  from	&#13;  
Daddy	&#13;  Sam	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  paddle.	&#13;  [SW	&#13;  goes	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  paddle]	&#13;  That	&#13;  is	&#13;  my	&#13;  paddle.	&#13;  And	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  
those	&#13;  are	&#13;  names	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  had	&#13;  at	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  or	&#13;  another	&#13;  taken	&#13;  at	&#13;  least	&#13;  one	&#13;  whack	&#13;  
from	&#13;  the	&#13;  paddle.	&#13;  Once	&#13;  again,	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  lot	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  fraternity	&#13;  in	&#13;  college	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  
somebody	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  your	&#13;  frat	&#13;  master	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  in	&#13;  charge	&#13;  of	&#13;  
the	&#13;  paddle.	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  started	&#13;  being	&#13;  called	&#13;  Daddy	&#13;  Sam,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  
of	&#13;  came	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  as	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  see	&#13;  the	&#13;  paddle	&#13;  was	&#13;  engraved	&#13;  “Daddy	&#13;  Sam.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  
some	&#13;  demonstrations	&#13;  with	&#13;  fire.	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  that	&#13;  would	&#13;  get	&#13;  you!	&#13;  Fire	&#13;  play	&#13;  is	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
oldest	&#13;  tricks	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  world.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  old	&#13;  circus	&#13;  trick.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  taught	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  
people	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  love	&#13;  having	&#13;  me	&#13;  set	&#13;  them	&#13;  on	&#13;  fire.	&#13;  It	&#13;  does	&#13;  something	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  does	&#13;  
something	&#13;  for	&#13;  them,	&#13;  too.	&#13;  Number	&#13;  one,	&#13;  for	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  trust	&#13;  me	&#13;  enough	&#13;  to	&#13;  set	&#13;  you	&#13;  on	&#13;  fire	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

�and	&#13;  not	&#13;  let	&#13;  you	&#13;  burn.	&#13;  It	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  strokes	&#13;  my	&#13;  ego	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  because	&#13;  that	&#13;  says	&#13;  you	&#13;  
really	&#13;  trust	&#13;  me.	&#13;  But	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  hand	&#13;  that	&#13;  person,	&#13;  too,	&#13;  has	&#13;  to	&#13;  put	&#13;  complete	&#13;  trust	&#13;  in	&#13;  
you.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  basically	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  do	&#13;  is…	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  awesome	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  bar	&#13;  
because	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  clear	&#13;  the	&#13;  pool	&#13;  table,	&#13;  usually	&#13;  is	&#13;  where	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  it	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  times.	&#13;  We	&#13;  
would	&#13;  put	&#13;  something	&#13;  over	&#13;  top	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  pool	&#13;  table	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  would	&#13;  take	&#13;  their	&#13;  
shirt	&#13;  off	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  light	&#13;  their	&#13;  back	&#13;  on	&#13;  fire	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  take	&#13;  my	&#13;  hand	&#13;  and	&#13;  cup	&#13;  it	&#13;  like	&#13;  
that	&#13;  and	&#13;  put	&#13;  it	&#13;  out.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:20	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  amazing.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:21	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Haven’t	&#13;  done	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  years.	&#13;  Don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  even	&#13;  attempt	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it	&#13;  
again	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  has	&#13;  been	&#13;  that	&#13;  long.	&#13;  But	&#13;  the	&#13;  secret	&#13;  to	&#13;  it,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  taught,	&#13;  
there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lady	&#13;  that	&#13;  taught	&#13;  me	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  leather	&#13;  run	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  her	&#13;  
setting	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  on	&#13;  fire	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  so	&#13;  cool,	&#13;  yet	&#13;  that	&#13;  whole	&#13;  person’s	&#13;  back	&#13;  
is	&#13;  just	&#13;  flaming	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  burned	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  “I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  try	&#13;  that!”	&#13;  So	&#13;  
she	&#13;  laid	&#13;  me	&#13;  down	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  sprayed	&#13;  my	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  set	&#13;  me	&#13;  on	&#13;  fire.	&#13;  It	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  warm	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I	&#13;  started	&#13;  to	&#13;  raise	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  pushed	&#13;  me	&#13;  back	&#13;  down	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Don’t	&#13;  worry”	&#13;  
because	&#13;  she	&#13;  started	&#13;  talking	&#13;  to	&#13;  somebody.	&#13;  She	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Whether	&#13;  I	&#13;  put	&#13;  it	&#13;  out	&#13;  or	&#13;  not	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  
gonna	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  before	&#13;  it	&#13;  burns	&#13;  you.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  reason	&#13;  for	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  done	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  
low	&#13;  percent	&#13;  grade	&#13;  of	&#13;  alcohol	&#13;  so	&#13;  it	&#13;  flashes	&#13;  real	&#13;  quick.	&#13;  But	&#13;  for	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  room	&#13;  that	&#13;  
had	&#13;  never	&#13;  seen	&#13;  it,	&#13;  they	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  that.	&#13;  They	&#13;  just	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  set	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  on	&#13;  
fire.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  put	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  hand	&#13;  and	&#13;  lit	&#13;  my	&#13;  hand	&#13;  and	&#13;  did	&#13;  this	&#13;  number	&#13;  and	&#13;  waved	&#13;  it	&#13;  
around	&#13;  the	&#13;  room	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  burn.	&#13;  Now	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  careful	&#13;  
and	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  one	&#13;  thing	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  believed	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  anytime	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  a	&#13;  demonstration	&#13;  is	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  
always	&#13;  tell	&#13;  people	&#13;  “Do	&#13;  not	&#13;  go	&#13;  home	&#13;  and	&#13;  try	&#13;  this	&#13;  because	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  
you’re	&#13;  doing	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  hurt	&#13;  somebody.”	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  grocery	&#13;  store	&#13;  and	&#13;  
buy	&#13;  any	&#13;  grade	&#13;  of	&#13;  alcohol	&#13;  and	&#13;  think	&#13;  “Oh	&#13;  Sam	&#13;  did	&#13;  this	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  do	&#13;  this,”	&#13;  [and]	&#13;  spray	&#13;  
somebody’s	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  light	&#13;  a	&#13;  match	&#13;  to	&#13;  it,	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  hurt	&#13;  them.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  
always	&#13;  say	&#13;  “Don’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  it.”	&#13;  Number	&#13;  one,	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  attempt	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it	&#13;  unless	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  had	&#13;  
it	&#13;  done	&#13;  to	&#13;  you.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  the	&#13;  sensation	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  is	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  feel	&#13;  before	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  respect	&#13;  their	&#13;  limits.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  like,	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  
like	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  get	&#13;  really	&#13;  warm	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  2	&#13;  or	&#13;  3	&#13;  percent	&#13;  alcohol,	&#13;  
so	&#13;  very	&#13;  low	&#13;  grade	&#13;  alcohol.	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  told	&#13;  the	&#13;  person,	&#13;  too.	&#13;  You	&#13;  made	&#13;  sure	&#13;  they	&#13;  laid	&#13;  
perfectly	&#13;  flat	&#13;  and	&#13;  made	&#13;  sure	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  puddle	&#13;  on	&#13;  their	&#13;  back.	&#13;  And	&#13;  what	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  use	&#13;  is	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  
mist	&#13;  bottle	&#13;  like	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  mist	&#13;  plants	&#13;  with,	&#13;  mist	&#13;  the	&#13;  back	&#13;  so	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  little	&#13;  beads	&#13;  of	&#13;  
alcohol	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  when	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  light	&#13;  it	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  blue	&#13;  flames	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  then,	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  immediately	&#13;  just	&#13;  take	&#13;  my	&#13;  hand	&#13;  and	&#13;  cup	&#13;  it,	&#13;  hold	&#13;  it	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  
put	&#13;  it	&#13;  out	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  neat.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
20:25	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Kind	&#13;  of?	&#13;  It	&#13;  sounds	&#13;  incredible!	&#13;  	&#13;

�SW:	&#13;  [laughter]	&#13;  And	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  when	&#13;  people	&#13;  started	&#13;  calling	&#13;  me	&#13;  Daddy	&#13;  Sam	&#13;  then.	&#13;  
Probably	&#13;  another	&#13;  thing	&#13;  that	&#13;  really	&#13;  came	&#13;  about	&#13;  that	&#13;  started	&#13;  me	&#13;  being	&#13;  called	&#13;  Daddy	&#13;  
Sam	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  murder	&#13;  that	&#13;  happened	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke.2	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  the	&#13;  year,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  a	&#13;  situation	&#13;  where	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  from	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  town	&#13;  walked	&#13;  into	&#13;  Corned	&#13;  Beef	&#13;  and	&#13;  
Company	&#13;  and	&#13;  got	&#13;  directions	&#13;  to	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park.	&#13;  They	&#13;  gave	&#13;  him	&#13;  directions	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  anyone	&#13;  
would,	&#13;  and	&#13;  as	&#13;  they	&#13;  walked	&#13;  out	&#13;  the	&#13;  door	&#13;  the	&#13;  guy	&#13;  made	&#13;  a	&#13;  comment	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  
kill	&#13;  a	&#13;  bunch	&#13;  of	&#13;  faggots.”	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  they	&#13;  immediately	&#13;  called	&#13;  the	&#13;  police,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  police	&#13;  went	&#13;  
to	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  “that’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  this	&#13;  guy’s	&#13;  going”	&#13;  because	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  he	&#13;  got	&#13;  
directions	&#13;  to.	&#13;  But	&#13;  he	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  he	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  little	&#13;  bar	&#13;  on	&#13;  Salem	&#13;  
Avenue	&#13;  called	&#13;  Backstreet,	&#13;  walked	&#13;  in,	&#13;  sat	&#13;  down	&#13;  and	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  beer	&#13;  with	&#13;  several	&#13;  people,	&#13;  
stood	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  fired	&#13;  point	&#13;  blank	&#13;  and	&#13;  shot	&#13;  seven	&#13;  people	&#13;  and	&#13;  killed	&#13;  one.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  
right	&#13;  after	&#13;  that,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  candlelit	&#13;  vigil,	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  probably	&#13;  close	&#13;  to	&#13;  six	&#13;  or	&#13;  
seven	&#13;  hundred	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  met	&#13;  in	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  called	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  asked	&#13;  
me,	&#13;  as	&#13;  the	&#13;  leader	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  community,	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  lead	&#13;  the	&#13;  parade.	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  young	&#13;  and	&#13;  foolish,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  like	&#13;  “Sure!	&#13;  I	&#13;  will!”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  down	&#13;  that	&#13;  night	&#13;  
dressed	&#13;  in	&#13;  full	&#13;  leather,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  my	&#13;  leather	&#13;  pride	&#13;  flag	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  
thinking	&#13;  “This	&#13;  isn’t	&#13;  smart.	&#13;  You	&#13;  are	&#13;  right	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  front	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  whole	&#13;  crowd,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  
been	&#13;  a	&#13;  murder	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  be	&#13;  an	&#13;  easy	&#13;  shot	&#13;  for	&#13;  anybody.”	&#13;  Nothing	&#13;  
happened	&#13;  that	&#13;  night.	&#13;  The	&#13;  police	&#13;  were	&#13;  fantastic,	&#13;  they	&#13;  blocked	&#13;  it	&#13;  off	&#13;  from	&#13;  Salem	&#13;  
Avenue…	&#13;  we	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  onto	&#13;  Salem	&#13;  Avenue,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  march	&#13;  went	&#13;  
from	&#13;  there	&#13;  up	&#13;  Salem	&#13;  Avenue,	&#13;  to	&#13;  where	&#13;  Backstreet	&#13;  Bar	&#13;  is,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  the	&#13;  
candlelit	&#13;  vigil	&#13;  was	&#13;  held.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  also	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  started	&#13;  having	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  lot	&#13;  more	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  
with	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  aspects	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community,	&#13;  because	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  female	&#13;  
impersonators	&#13;  were	&#13;  there,	&#13;  and	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  point	&#13;  everyone	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  standoffish	&#13;  from	&#13;  
Daddy	&#13;  Sam,	&#13;  because	&#13;  that	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  intimidating.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  see	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  whip	&#13;  on	&#13;  
my	&#13;  side	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  that…	&#13;  but	&#13;  once	&#13;  you	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  me	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  “No,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  
anyone	&#13;  else.	&#13;  He	&#13;  just	&#13;  has	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  time,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to—without	&#13;  you	&#13;  wanting	&#13;  him	&#13;  
to—and	&#13;  even	&#13;  if	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  tie	&#13;  them	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  beat	&#13;  them	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  
that	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  have	&#13;  ever	&#13;  done	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  person.	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  hit	&#13;  them	&#13;  with	&#13;  
a	&#13;  paddle,	&#13;  of	&#13;  course.	&#13;  [laughing]	&#13;  But	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  probably	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  started	&#13;  being	&#13;  called	&#13;  Daddy	&#13;  
Sam,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  point	&#13;  where	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  even	&#13;  go	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar	&#13;  and	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  would	&#13;  
shout	&#13;  “Daddy	&#13;  Sam’s	&#13;  here!”	&#13;  Especially	&#13;  at	&#13;  Backstreet,	&#13;  cause	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  small	&#13;  community	&#13;  
type	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  demos	&#13;  [demonstrations]	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
But	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  got	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  my	&#13;  partner,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  really	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  
world	&#13;  that	&#13;  much.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  like	&#13;  anything	&#13;  else,	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  down	&#13;  so	&#13;  many	&#13;  paths	&#13;  in	&#13;  
your	&#13;  life,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  down	&#13;  one	&#13;  path	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  your	&#13;  life	&#13;  would	&#13;  take	&#13;  
another	&#13;  turn,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  down	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  path.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  true	&#13;  with	&#13;  me.	&#13;  
We	&#13;  met	&#13;  and	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  build	&#13;  a	&#13;  life	&#13;  together,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  felt	&#13;  that	&#13;  anytime	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  
involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  you	&#13;  probably	&#13;  should	&#13;  not	&#13;  be	&#13;  spending	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  time	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  
Be	&#13;  it	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  relationship,	&#13;  a	&#13;  straight	&#13;  relationship,	&#13;  or	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  relationship,	&#13;  
bars	&#13;  tend	&#13;  to	&#13;  breed	&#13;  trouble	&#13;  because	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  always	&#13;  that	&#13;  other	&#13;  person	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  
try	&#13;  to	&#13;  make	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  with	&#13;  jealous.	&#13;  They	&#13;  might	&#13;  not	&#13;  really	&#13;  want	&#13;  you	&#13;  
themselves,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  something	&#13;  to	&#13;  prove	&#13;  “Well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  get	&#13;  them.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
2	&#13;  The	&#13;  following	&#13;  story	&#13;  refers	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Backstreet	&#13;  Café	&#13;  shooting	&#13;  of	&#13;  September	&#13;  22,	&#13;  2000.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;

�so	&#13;  we	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  much	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  point	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bars,	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  
bars,	&#13;  haven’t	&#13;  been	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar	&#13;  [since]…	&#13;  well,	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  together	&#13;  nine	&#13;  years	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
think	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  three	&#13;  times	&#13;  since	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  together.	&#13;  But,	&#13;  
looking	&#13;  back	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  last	&#13;  nine	&#13;  years,	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  not	&#13;  give	&#13;  up	&#13;  those	&#13;  nine	&#13;  years	&#13;  for	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  
years	&#13;  I	&#13;  spent	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bar.	&#13;  He	&#13;  is,	&#13;  without	&#13;  a	&#13;  doubt…	&#13;  if	&#13;  ever	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  soulmate…	&#13;  he	&#13;  is	&#13;  
my	&#13;  soulmate.	&#13;  We	&#13;  met	&#13;  online.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  thing	&#13;  called	&#13;  Bear	&#13;  411	&#13;  [bear411.com]	&#13;  and	&#13;  
it’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  chatroom.	&#13;  We	&#13;  started	&#13;  chatting,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  talked	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  before	&#13;  
we	&#13;  ever	&#13;  met	&#13;  each	&#13;  other.	&#13;  We	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  point	&#13;  where	&#13;  we	&#13;  talked	&#13;  everyday,	&#13;  either	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  
computer	&#13;  or	&#13;  by	&#13;  phone.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  from	&#13;  West	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  North	&#13;  
Carolina.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  his	&#13;  family	&#13;  reunion,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “I’ll	&#13;  just	&#13;  stop	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  
weekend,”	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  finally	&#13;  meet	&#13;  because	&#13;  we	&#13;  hadn’t	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  year.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  like	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  
cool.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  he	&#13;  came	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  great	&#13;  weekend.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  you	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  a	&#13;  
stranger,	&#13;  because	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  talked	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  year,	&#13;  so	&#13;  you	&#13;  really	&#13;  knew	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  about	&#13;  each	&#13;  other…	&#13;  
what	&#13;  your	&#13;  likes	&#13;  were,	&#13;  your	&#13;  dislikes,	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  funny	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
coming	&#13;  in	&#13;  from	&#13;  work	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  coming	&#13;  across	&#13;  the	&#13;  Walnut	&#13;  Street	&#13;  Bridge,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  
called	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “I	&#13;  think	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  lost.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  what	&#13;  are	&#13;  you	&#13;  driving,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“a	&#13;  blue	&#13;  van.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “if	&#13;  you	&#13;  see	&#13;  that	&#13;  red	&#13;  truck	&#13;  that	&#13;  just	&#13;  pulled	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  front	&#13;  of	&#13;  you,	&#13;  that	&#13;  
would	&#13;  be	&#13;  me,	&#13;  so	&#13;  just	&#13;  follow	&#13;  me	&#13;  home,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  did.	&#13;  He	&#13;  spent	&#13;  Friday	&#13;  night,	&#13;  Saturday	&#13;  
night,	&#13;  Sunday	&#13;  morning	&#13;  he	&#13;  got	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  got	&#13;  ready	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  his	&#13;  family	&#13;  reunion,	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  
on	&#13;  a	&#13;  whim	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “if	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  mind,	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  go	&#13;  with	&#13;  you.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  like,	&#13;  “I	&#13;  did	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you	&#13;  this	&#13;  
is	&#13;  a	&#13;  West	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  family	&#13;  reunion.”	&#13;  “Yes,”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  with	&#13;  him	&#13;  to	&#13;  his	&#13;  family	&#13;  
reunion	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  his	&#13;  whole	&#13;  family	&#13;  in	&#13;  one	&#13;  day,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  funny	&#13;  because	&#13;  his	&#13;  mom	&#13;  
and	&#13;  dad	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  know	&#13;  probably	&#13;  for	&#13;  three	&#13;  or	&#13;  four	&#13;  years	&#13;  that	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  
weekend	&#13;  we’d	&#13;  ever	&#13;  seen	&#13;  each	&#13;  other.	&#13;  They	&#13;  assumed	&#13;  that	&#13;  we’d	&#13;  been	&#13;  dating.	&#13;  We	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  
talking	&#13;  one	&#13;  night	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  like	&#13;  “No!	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  weekend	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  seen	&#13;  each	&#13;  
other	&#13;  also.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  five	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  commitment	&#13;  service	&#13;  in	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  then	&#13;  as	&#13;  soon	&#13;  as	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  made	&#13;  it	&#13;  legal,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  town	&#13;  on	&#13;  business	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  called	&#13;  
him	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Let’s	&#13;  get	&#13;  married.”	&#13;  So,	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  married	&#13;  January	&#13;  the	&#13;  10th,	&#13;  2015.	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  
just	&#13;  celebrated	&#13;  our	&#13;  one-­‐year	&#13;  official	&#13;  anniversary,	&#13;  and	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  concerned	&#13;  we’ll	&#13;  
be	&#13;  together	&#13;  forever.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
29:09	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Congratulations!	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
29:11	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Thank	&#13;  you,	&#13;  thank	&#13;  you.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
29:14	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  exciting,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  actually	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  married.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  were.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  wonderful!	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
29:20	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Yes.	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  both	&#13;  share	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  likes.	&#13;  We	&#13;  both	&#13;  like	&#13;  gardening	&#13;  as	&#13;  you	&#13;  
can	&#13;  probably	&#13;  tell	&#13;  by	&#13;  looking	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  yard	&#13;  out	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  front	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  We	&#13;  go	&#13;  
to	&#13;  the	&#13;  lake	&#13;  quite	&#13;  a	&#13;  bit.	&#13;  We	&#13;  jokingly	&#13;  tell	&#13;  people	&#13;  the	&#13;  majority	&#13;  of	&#13;  our	&#13;  friends	&#13;  are	&#13;  not	&#13;  
really	&#13;  gay.	&#13;  They’re	&#13;  straight	&#13;  people,	&#13;  because	&#13;  we	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  think	&#13;  of	&#13;  our	&#13;  lifestyle	&#13;  as	&#13;  
	&#13;  
10	&#13;  

�“quote,	&#13;  quote…”	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  some	&#13;  people	&#13;  say	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  lifestyle	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  straight	&#13;  
lifestyle.”	&#13;  Our	&#13;  lifestyle	&#13;  is	&#13;  our	&#13;  lifestyle,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know?	&#13;  We	&#13;  have	&#13;  Christmas	&#13;  parties	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  
a	&#13;  mix	&#13;  of	&#13;  people.	&#13;  Like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  into	&#13;  gardening,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  a	&#13;  master	&#13;  gardener.	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  
therapeutic	&#13;  gardening	&#13;  with	&#13;  nursing	&#13;  homes	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  that.	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  into	&#13;  Christmas	&#13;  lights	&#13;  so	&#13;  
he	&#13;  does	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  shopping	&#13;  center	&#13;  in	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina	&#13;  by	&#13;  himself,	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  to	&#13;  give	&#13;  you	&#13;  
an	&#13;  idea	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  say	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  into	&#13;  Christmas,	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  fifteen	&#13;  Christmas	&#13;  trees	&#13;  
throughout	&#13;  the	&#13;  house.	&#13;  Like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  down	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  path.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  miss	&#13;  the	&#13;  
leather	&#13;  clubs.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  regret	&#13;  being	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  clubs,	&#13;  I	&#13;  thoroughly	&#13;  enjoyed	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
made	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  great	&#13;  friends	&#13;  there.	&#13;  But,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  as	&#13;  you	&#13;  get	&#13;  older,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  this	&#13;  thing	&#13;  when	&#13;  
you	&#13;  become	&#13;  an	&#13;  adult,	&#13;  you	&#13;  put	&#13;  away	&#13;  childish	&#13;  things.	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  finally	&#13;  became	&#13;  an	&#13;  
adult	&#13;  and	&#13;  put	&#13;  away	&#13;  my	&#13;  childish	&#13;  things	&#13;  and	&#13;  settled	&#13;  down	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  real	&#13;  adult	&#13;  and	&#13;  
contributing	&#13;  person	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  community.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
31:08	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  So,	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  still	&#13;  keep	&#13;  in	&#13;  touch	&#13;  with	&#13;  some	&#13;  friends	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  made	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  leather	&#13;  
community?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
31:16	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Oh	&#13;  yes,	&#13;  absolutely.	&#13;  As	&#13;  a	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  fact,	&#13;  some	&#13;  were	&#13;  at	&#13;  our	&#13;  wedding.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
funny	&#13;  because	&#13;  when	&#13;  we	&#13;  started	&#13;  sending	&#13;  out	&#13;  invitations	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  wedding,	&#13;  I	&#13;  told	&#13;  Mark	&#13;  
“Don’t	&#13;  worry	&#13;  about	&#13;  how	&#13;  many	&#13;  you	&#13;  send,	&#13;  because	&#13;  only	&#13;  fifty	&#13;  percent	&#13;  is	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  show	&#13;  
up.”	&#13;  Ninety-­‐five	&#13;  percent	&#13;  showed	&#13;  up,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  it	&#13;  here.	&#13;  We	&#13;  left	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  Christmas	&#13;  
decorations	&#13;  up,	&#13;  we	&#13;  took	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  furniture	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  living	&#13;  room	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  furniture	&#13;  
out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  dining	&#13;  room.	&#13;  We	&#13;  rented	&#13;  chairs,	&#13;  had	&#13;  it	&#13;  set	&#13;  up	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  chapel.	&#13;  We	&#13;  ended	&#13;  up	&#13;  
with	&#13;  three	&#13;  ministers	&#13;  just	&#13;  because	&#13;  the	&#13;  couple	&#13;  that	&#13;  had	&#13;  done	&#13;  our	&#13;  commitment	&#13;  in	&#13;  
North	&#13;  Carolina	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it,	&#13;  but	&#13;  their	&#13;  license	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  recognized	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Virginia	&#13;  because	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  from	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina.	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  a	&#13;  minister	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  to	&#13;  
do	&#13;  the	&#13;  officiating	&#13;  and	&#13;  actually	&#13;  pronounce	&#13;  husband	&#13;  and	&#13;  husband,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  could	&#13;  still	&#13;  
be	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  too,	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  ended	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  three	&#13;  ministers.	&#13;  [laughter]	&#13;  If	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  
married	&#13;  now,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  never	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
32:28	&#13;  	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Wow!	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  Backstreet	&#13;  Café,	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  your	&#13;  favorite	&#13;  bars	&#13;  to	&#13;  
go	&#13;  to…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
32:37	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Actually,	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  small	&#13;  neighborhood	&#13;  type	&#13;  bar	&#13;  and,	&#13;  yes,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  
probably	&#13;  the	&#13;  one	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  There	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  another	&#13;  one	&#13;  called	&#13;  The	&#13;  Last	&#13;  Straw	&#13;  
that	&#13;  was	&#13;  right	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  corner	&#13;  of	&#13;  Salem	&#13;  and	&#13;  Jefferson	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  first	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  it	&#13;  eventually	&#13;  closed.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  real	&#13;  big	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  large	&#13;  dance	&#13;  bars.	&#13;  I	&#13;  like	&#13;  small,	&#13;  
community-­‐type	&#13;  bars	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  sit	&#13;  and	&#13;  carry	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  conversation.	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  get	&#13;  to	&#13;  
know	&#13;  people,	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  feel	&#13;  like	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  screaming	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  each	&#13;  other	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  I	&#13;  always	&#13;  felt	&#13;  that	&#13;  way	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  loud	&#13;  dance	&#13;  music	&#13;  
and	&#13;  BARARARARAR	&#13;  [laughter]	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  really	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  connect	&#13;  with	&#13;  people	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  
think.	&#13;  You	&#13;  go	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  dance	&#13;  and	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  time,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  home.	&#13;  But	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
smaller	&#13;  bars,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  always	&#13;  that	&#13;  opportunity	&#13;  to	&#13;  just	&#13;  sit	&#13;  one-­‐on-­‐one,	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  like	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11	&#13;  

�what	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  doing	&#13;  right	&#13;  now.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  sit	&#13;  and	&#13;  talk,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  about	&#13;  anything	&#13;  and	&#13;  
everything.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
33:42	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  So,	&#13;  again	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  that	&#13;  gentleman	&#13;  went	&#13;  into	&#13;  Corned	&#13;  Beef	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  police	&#13;  
found	&#13;  out	&#13;  that	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that	&#13;  heinous	&#13;  act,	&#13;  so	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  like	&#13;  
with	&#13;  the	&#13;  police	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘80s?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
34:02	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Actually,	&#13;  very	&#13;  good.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  evident	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  night	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  
candlelight	&#13;  vigil.	&#13;  They	&#13;  blocked	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  side	&#13;  streets,	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  respectful	&#13;  to	&#13;  
everyone,	&#13;  and	&#13;  everyone	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  respectful	&#13;  to	&#13;  them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  amazed.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
34:30	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  wonderful.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
34:31	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Because	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  talking	&#13;  back…	&#13;  jeez,	&#13;  this	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  twenty	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago	&#13;  
maybe	&#13;  or	&#13;  longer	&#13;  that	&#13;  this	&#13;  happened.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  got	&#13;  the	&#13;  guy.	&#13;  They	&#13;  got	&#13;  him	&#13;  within	&#13;  two	&#13;  
or	&#13;  three	&#13;  blocks	&#13;  of	&#13;  Backstreet.	&#13;  But	&#13;  actually,	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  police	&#13;  did	&#13;  when	&#13;  they	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  
the	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  they	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  and	&#13;  would	&#13;  not	&#13;  allow	&#13;  anyone	&#13;  in	&#13;  
The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  to	&#13;  leave	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  where	&#13;  he	&#13;  was.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  basically	&#13;  
locked	&#13;  it	&#13;  down,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  good	&#13;  because	&#13;  those	&#13;  people	&#13;  were	&#13;  safe	&#13;  inside	&#13;  because	&#13;  the	&#13;  
police	&#13;  were	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  much	&#13;  all	&#13;  around	&#13;  that	&#13;  place.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
35:18	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  So,	&#13;  did	&#13;  they	&#13;  ever	&#13;  figure	&#13;  out	&#13;  his	&#13;  motive	&#13;  behind…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
35:23	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Supposedly	&#13;  his	&#13;  motive	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  his	&#13;  last	&#13;  name	&#13;  was	&#13;  Gay,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  
harassed	&#13;  all	&#13;  his	&#13;  life	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  his	&#13;  last	&#13;  name.	&#13;  Do	&#13;  I	&#13;  buy	&#13;  that	&#13;  story?	&#13;  Not	&#13;  at	&#13;  all,	&#13;  not	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  
I’m	&#13;  sorry,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  reason	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  kill	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  in	&#13;  cold	&#13;  blood.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
mean,	&#13;  he	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  know	&#13;  these	&#13;  people,	&#13;  had	&#13;  never	&#13;  seen	&#13;  these	&#13;  people.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  
there	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  confrontation	&#13;  with	&#13;  them	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  He	&#13;  just,	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  
went	&#13;  in,	&#13;  sat	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  table	&#13;  with	&#13;  them,	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  beer,	&#13;  and	&#13;  got	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  assumed	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  leave,	&#13;  but	&#13;  he	&#13;  got	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  just…	&#13;  point	&#13;  blank.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
36:17	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  So,	&#13;  after	&#13;  that	&#13;  happened	&#13;  were	&#13;  people	&#13;  afraid	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  to…	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  a	&#13;  lull	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
nightlife?	&#13;

SW:	&#13;  Actually,	&#13;  no.	&#13;  There	&#13;  wasn’t.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  they	&#13;  caught	&#13;  him	&#13;  that	&#13;  night.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  days	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  They	&#13;  got	&#13;  him	&#13;  probably	&#13;  within	&#13;  four	&#13;  blocks	&#13;  of	&#13;  Backstreet.	&#13;  They	&#13;  
had	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  description	&#13;  of	&#13;  him	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  right	&#13;  on	&#13;  top	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  But	&#13;  no,	&#13;  
I	&#13;  think,	&#13;  if	&#13;  anything,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  the	&#13;  opposite.	&#13;  Pretty	&#13;  much	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  feel	&#13;  today,	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12	&#13;  

�that	&#13;  you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  let…	&#13;  in	&#13;  our	&#13;  day	&#13;  and	&#13;  time	&#13;  today,	&#13;  you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  lock	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  house	&#13;  
because	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  afraid	&#13;  there	&#13;  might	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  terrorist	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  street	&#13;  corner.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean,	&#13;  you	&#13;  guys	&#13;  
especially,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  telling	&#13;  someone	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  day,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  sad	&#13;  that	&#13;  our	&#13;  kids	&#13;  today	&#13;  
can’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  college	&#13;  and	&#13;  get	&#13;  a	&#13;  college	&#13;  education	&#13;  without	&#13;  worrying	&#13;  about	&#13;  some	&#13;  idiot	&#13;  
that	&#13;  might	&#13;  come	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  start	&#13;  shooting	&#13;  for	&#13;  no	&#13;  reason	&#13;  at	&#13;  all,	&#13;  because	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  happened	&#13;  and	&#13;  
for	&#13;  no	&#13;  reason.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  today	&#13;  is	&#13;  worse	&#13;  than	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  then.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  we	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  
said	&#13;  “we’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  stay	&#13;  home,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  lock	&#13;  our	&#13;  doors	&#13;  and	&#13;  not	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  
and	&#13;  everything.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  back	&#13;  out.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
The	&#13;  one	&#13;  nice	&#13;  thing	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  will	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  happened	&#13;  was,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  the	&#13;  
minister’s	&#13;  name,	&#13;  but	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  minister	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  time	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  all	&#13;  
over	&#13;  the	&#13;  United	&#13;  States	&#13;  and	&#13;  was	&#13;  causing	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  problems,	&#13;  like	&#13;  if	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
situation	&#13;  or	&#13;  something,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  saying	&#13;  people	&#13;  were	&#13;  basically	&#13;  getting	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  
deserved.	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  his	&#13;  name,	&#13;  but	&#13;  to	&#13;  protect	&#13;  this	&#13;  guy’s	&#13;  family,	&#13;  when	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  
the	&#13;  funeral,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  row	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  stood	&#13;  with	&#13;  white	&#13;  sheets	&#13;  and	&#13;  held	&#13;  them	&#13;  
up	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  media	&#13;  nor	&#13;  this	&#13;  minister,	&#13;  because	&#13;  this	&#13;  minister	&#13;  said	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  coming	&#13;  to	&#13;  
town	&#13;  the	&#13;  day	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  funeral.3	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  all	&#13;  gone	&#13;  through	&#13;  some	&#13;  training	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  not	&#13;  
to	&#13;  do.	&#13;  Do	&#13;  not	&#13;  touch	&#13;  him,	&#13;  because	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  he	&#13;  wanted.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  he	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  had	&#13;  
everyone	&#13;  right	&#13;  where	&#13;  he	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  them	&#13;  then,	&#13;  if,	&#13;  say,	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  him	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  as	&#13;  
much	&#13;  as	&#13;  put	&#13;  my	&#13;  hand	&#13;  on	&#13;  you,	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  cried	&#13;  foul	&#13;  “They’re	&#13;  attacking	&#13;  me.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  
we	&#13;  went	&#13;  through	&#13;  a	&#13;  night	&#13;  of	&#13;  training,	&#13;  of	&#13;  do	&#13;  not	&#13;  touch	&#13;  them,	&#13;  ignore	&#13;  them,	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  get	&#13;  
into	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  verbal	&#13;  confrontation	&#13;  with	&#13;  them	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  block	&#13;  it	&#13;  out	&#13;  
of	&#13;  your	&#13;  mind.	&#13;  And	&#13;  fortunately	&#13;  he	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  town,	&#13;  but	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  said	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  
to.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  his	&#13;  name.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  minister,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  about…	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  
remember,	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  way	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  Ryan	&#13;  White	&#13;  situation,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  
his	&#13;  name.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  causing	&#13;  problems	&#13;  all	&#13;  over	&#13;  the	&#13;  United	&#13;  States,	&#13;  and	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  
the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  population	&#13;  were	&#13;  the	&#13;  ones	&#13;  causing	&#13;  the	&#13;  problem.	&#13;  What	&#13;  else?	&#13;

that	&#13;  minster—any	&#13;  experiences	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  faced	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  speak	&#13;  up,	&#13;  do	&#13;  
something	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  where	&#13;  someone	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  discriminating	&#13;  against	&#13;  you	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;

SW:	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  funny	&#13;  you	&#13;  ask	&#13;  that.	&#13;  Like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  parade	&#13;  or	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  candlelight	&#13;  vigil	&#13;  
march	&#13;  that	&#13;  night	&#13;  and	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  walked	&#13;  the	&#13;  street	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  this	&#13;  isn’t	&#13;  smart	&#13;  because	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  news	&#13;  and	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  at	&#13;  work	&#13;  is	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  watching	&#13;  the	&#13;  news	&#13;  
so…	&#13;  I	&#13;  watched	&#13;  the	&#13;  news	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  news	&#13;  and	&#13;  thought	&#13;  “phew,	&#13;  good,”	&#13;  you	&#13;  
know.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  the	&#13;  next	&#13;  morning	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  newspaper	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  to	&#13;  work	&#13;  and	&#13;  opened	&#13;  
the	&#13;  newspaper	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  I	&#13;  was!	&#13;  Full	&#13;  leather	&#13;  carrying	&#13;  a	&#13;  leather	&#13;  pride	&#13;  flag	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  like	&#13;  
“no	&#13;  no	&#13;  no…”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  how	&#13;  do	&#13;  I	&#13;  handle	&#13;  this?	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  kept	&#13;  looking	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  paper	&#13;  
thinking,	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  look	&#13;  like	&#13;  me,	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  look	&#13;  like	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  look	&#13;  again	&#13;  and	&#13;  be	&#13;  like	&#13;

for	&#13;  Danny	&#13;  Overstreet,	&#13;  the	&#13;  sole	&#13;  victim	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Backstreet	&#13;  Café	&#13;  shooting.	&#13;

�“yeah	&#13;  it	&#13;  does,	&#13;  yeah	&#13;  it	&#13;  does,”	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  no	&#13;  doubt	&#13;  who	&#13;  that	&#13;  is.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  work	&#13;  and	&#13;  
I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  decided	&#13;  that	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  confronted	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  
basically	&#13;  say	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  private	&#13;  life	&#13;  is	&#13;  my	&#13;  business,	&#13;  it	&#13;  has	&#13;  no	&#13;  bearing	&#13;  on	&#13;  my	&#13;  job	&#13;  
yet	&#13;  I	&#13;  still	&#13;  do	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  job	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  always	&#13;  do,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  strange	&#13;  cause	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  said	&#13;  a	&#13;  
word.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  worried	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  all	&#13;  day,	&#13;  but	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  said	&#13;  a	&#13;  word	&#13;  all	&#13;  day	&#13;  long.	&#13;  About	&#13;  two	&#13;  
weeks	&#13;  later	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  guys	&#13;  walked	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “[I]	&#13;  saw	&#13;  your	&#13;  picture	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
paper”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “man…”	&#13;  He	&#13;  said	&#13;  “What	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  in	&#13;  your	&#13;  life	&#13;  is	&#13;  your	&#13;  business,	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  
else’s.”	&#13;  But	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  time	&#13;  that	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  really	&#13;  worried	&#13;  about	&#13;  that.	&#13;  	&#13;

SW:	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  fortunate	&#13;  person	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  partner	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  fortunate	&#13;  person	&#13;  because	&#13;  
both	&#13;  families	&#13;  know,	&#13;  both	&#13;  families	&#13;  are	&#13;  very	&#13;  accepting.	&#13;  When	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  married	&#13;  his	&#13;  
mom—his	&#13;  dad	&#13;  has	&#13;  passed	&#13;  away—but	&#13;  his	&#13;  mom	&#13;  was	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  sister	&#13;  was	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  
we	&#13;  basically	&#13;  did	&#13;  a	&#13;  Western-­‐type	&#13;  wedding	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  he	&#13;  came	&#13;  down	&#13;  the	&#13;  steps	&#13;  he	&#13;  
turned	&#13;  and	&#13;  handed	&#13;  his	&#13;  cowboy	&#13;  hat	&#13;  to	&#13;  his	&#13;  mom	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  she	&#13;  took	&#13;  his	&#13;  arm	&#13;  and	&#13;  
walked	&#13;  across	&#13;  the	&#13;  living	&#13;  room	&#13;  and	&#13;  stood	&#13;  beside	&#13;  of	&#13;  him	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  down	&#13;  I	&#13;  
handed	&#13;  mine	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  sister	&#13;  and	&#13;  did	&#13;  the	&#13;  same.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  it’s…	&#13;  and	&#13;  even	&#13;  before	&#13;  his	&#13;  dad	&#13;  
passed	&#13;  away,	&#13;  his	&#13;  dad	&#13;  was	&#13;  always	&#13;  very	&#13;  accepting.	&#13;  His	&#13;  dad	&#13;  always	&#13;  called	&#13;  me	&#13;  “son	&#13;  in	&#13;  
law”	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  funny	&#13;  because	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  hospital	&#13;  for	&#13;  open	&#13;  heart	&#13;  surgery	&#13;  
and	&#13;  Mark	&#13;  had	&#13;  not	&#13;  been	&#13;  here	&#13;  that	&#13;  long	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  called	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “how	&#13;  do	&#13;  I	&#13;  get	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Charlottesville?”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  like	&#13;  “why	&#13;  are	&#13;  you	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  Charlottesville?”	&#13;  He	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“they’re	&#13;  rushing	&#13;  my	&#13;  dad	&#13;  in	&#13;  an	&#13;  ambulance	&#13;  to	&#13;  UVA	&#13;  [the	&#13;  University	&#13;  of	&#13;  Virginia]”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
said	&#13;  “well	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  driving,	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  be	&#13;  home	&#13;  in	&#13;  ten	&#13;  minutes.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  put	&#13;  him	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  car	&#13;  
and	&#13;  we	&#13;  took	&#13;  off	&#13;  to	&#13;  Charlottesville.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  strange	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  believe	&#13;  
in	&#13;  premonition	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that	&#13;  but	&#13;  we	&#13;  stopped	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  rest	&#13;  area	&#13;  and	&#13;  went	&#13;  and	&#13;  
used	&#13;  the	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  an	&#13;  ambulance	&#13;  go	&#13;  by	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “there	&#13;  
goes	&#13;  your	&#13;  dad…	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  ambulance.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  catching	&#13;  it.”	&#13;  He	&#13;  said	&#13;  “you’ll	&#13;  get	&#13;  a	&#13;  
ticket,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “not	&#13;  unless	&#13;  they	&#13;  follow	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  Charlottesville	&#13;  I	&#13;  won’t	&#13;  because	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  
not	&#13;  stopping.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  pulled	&#13;  in	&#13;  right	&#13;  behind	&#13;  the	&#13;  ambulance	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  his	&#13;  dad.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
so,	&#13;  they	&#13;  got	&#13;  his	&#13;  dad	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  ambulance	&#13;  and	&#13;  Mark	&#13;  went	&#13;  in	&#13;  with	&#13;  him	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  
I	&#13;  went	&#13;  and	&#13;  parked	&#13;  and	&#13;  came	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  room	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  nurse	&#13;  said	&#13;  “well	&#13;  you	&#13;  
must	&#13;  be	&#13;  his	&#13;  other	&#13;  son.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “no,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  his	&#13;  son	&#13;  in	&#13;  law,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  Mark’s	&#13;  dad	&#13;  looked	&#13;  
and	&#13;  grinned	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “yeah,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  my	&#13;  son	&#13;  in	&#13;  law”	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  called	&#13;  me	&#13;  son	&#13;  in	&#13;  law	&#13;  from	&#13;  
then	&#13;  on.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
44:56	&#13;  	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  So	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  very	&#13;  fortunate	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  even	&#13;  today	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  sad.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  
lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  today	&#13;  that	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  their	&#13;  families.	&#13;  Or	&#13;  if	&#13;  they	&#13;  do	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  
their	&#13;  families	&#13;  they	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  anything	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  with	&#13;  them	&#13;  anymore	&#13;  and	&#13;  
we	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  that	&#13;  problem.	&#13;  My	&#13;  whole	&#13;  family	&#13;  knows.	&#13;  His	&#13;  whole	&#13;  family	&#13;  knows.	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  
family	&#13;  reunions,	&#13;  he	&#13;  goes	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  family’s	&#13;  and	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  it	&#13;  
should	&#13;  be,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  straight	&#13;  and	&#13;  straight	&#13;  or	&#13;  gay	&#13;  and	&#13;  gay	&#13;  or	&#13;  
whatever	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  love,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  
share	&#13;  my	&#13;  life	&#13;  with.	&#13;  Don’t	&#13;  make	&#13;  me	&#13;  choose	&#13;  between	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  family	&#13;  
because	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  lose.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  make	&#13;  me	&#13;  choose,	&#13;  I	&#13;  guarantee	&#13;  you	&#13;  

	&#13;  
14	&#13;  

�you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  lose.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  give	&#13;  up	&#13;  the	&#13;  man	&#13;  I	&#13;  love,	&#13;  the	&#13;  man	&#13;  I	&#13;  spent	&#13;  
nine	&#13;  years	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  life	&#13;  with	&#13;  for	&#13;  anybody.	&#13;  [Long	&#13;  pause]	&#13;  And	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  I	&#13;  feel.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
46:07	&#13;  	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Absolutely.	&#13;  So	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  discrimination	&#13;  towards	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  
is	&#13;  worse	&#13;  now	&#13;  than	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  were…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
46:16	&#13;  	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  no.	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  not	&#13;  think	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  discrimination	&#13;  today	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  
had	&#13;  twenty	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago	&#13;  even.	&#13;  And,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  be	&#13;  honest	&#13;  with	&#13;  you,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  that	&#13;  
really	&#13;  helped	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  Ellen	&#13;  DeGeneres.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  remember	&#13;  when	&#13;  she	&#13;  first	&#13;  was	&#13;  
outed,	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  ostracized.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  they	&#13;  pulled	&#13;  her	&#13;  off	&#13;  of	&#13;  T.V.	&#13;  They	&#13;  did	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  things	&#13;  
you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  anything	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  with	&#13;  her.	&#13;  And	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  her	&#13;  today.	&#13;  And	&#13;  look	&#13;  
at	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  your	&#13;  actors	&#13;  and	&#13;  things,	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  no	&#13;  longer	&#13;  afraid	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  gay”	&#13;  or	&#13;  	&#13;  
“I’ve	&#13;  gotten	&#13;  married”	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever.	&#13;  You	&#13;  can	&#13;  pick	&#13;  up	&#13;  any	&#13;  magazine	&#13;  and	&#13;  start	&#13;  looking	&#13;  
like,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’ll	&#13;  say	&#13;  “so	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  got	&#13;  married”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  like	&#13;  “ah,	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  come	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  way.”	&#13;  
We’ve	&#13;  come	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  way.	&#13;  A	&#13;  lot	&#13;  farther	&#13;  really	&#13;  than	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  ever	&#13;  thought	&#13;  would	&#13;  
happen	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  life.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  time.	&#13;  I	&#13;  worry	&#13;  now	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  who’s	&#13;  running	&#13;  for	&#13;  
president	&#13;  [laughing].	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  won’t	&#13;  mention	&#13;  any	&#13;  names,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  anyone	&#13;  could	&#13;  
turn	&#13;  the	&#13;  wheels	&#13;  back,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  America	&#13;  would	&#13;  stand	&#13;  for	&#13;  it.	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  we	&#13;  
went	&#13;  through	&#13;  this	&#13;  whole	&#13;  thing	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  evangelical	&#13;  groups	&#13;  saying	&#13;  that	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  allow	&#13;  gays	&#13;  
to	&#13;  get	&#13;  married	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  hurt	&#13;  the	&#13;  straight	&#13;  lifestyle.	&#13;  No	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  not.	&#13;  Why?	&#13;  How?	&#13;  To	&#13;  us	&#13;  
the	&#13;  way	&#13;  we	&#13;  looked	&#13;  at	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  this	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  We	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  care	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  
called	&#13;  it	&#13;  marriage	&#13;  or	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  called	&#13;  it	&#13;  commitment,	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  you	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  call	&#13;  it	&#13;  that	&#13;  
was	&#13;  fine.	&#13;  What	&#13;  we	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  was	&#13;  equal	&#13;  rights.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  into	&#13;  a	&#13;  hospital	&#13;  I	&#13;  
wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  Mark	&#13;  as	&#13;  my	&#13;  husband	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  right	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  do.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
until	&#13;  they	&#13;  decided	&#13;  this	&#13;  [the	&#13;  Supreme	&#13;  Court	&#13;  case	&#13;  legalizing	&#13;  same-­‐sex	&#13;  marriage]	&#13;  he	&#13;  
really	&#13;  didn’t.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  power	&#13;  of	&#13;  attorney	&#13;  for	&#13;  that,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  right.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean,	&#13;  
just	&#13;  like	&#13;  if	&#13;  either	&#13;  of	&#13;  you,	&#13;  for	&#13;  example,	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  with	&#13;  someone	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  
were	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  for	&#13;  twenty	&#13;  years	&#13;  [pause],	&#13;  that	&#13;  person	&#13;  should	&#13;  be	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  
have	&#13;  a	&#13;  say	&#13;  in	&#13;  your	&#13;  health.	&#13;  Whether	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  piece	&#13;  of	&#13;  paper	&#13;  that	&#13;  says	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  
married	&#13;  or	&#13;  not	&#13;  married.	&#13;  I	&#13;  always	&#13;  said	&#13;  a	&#13;  piece	&#13;  of	&#13;  paper	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  make	&#13;  a	&#13;  marriage,	&#13;  it	&#13;  
doesn’t	&#13;  break	&#13;  a	&#13;  marriage	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  make	&#13;  a	&#13;  marriage.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  
always	&#13;  pushed	&#13;  for	&#13;  was	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  call	&#13;  it,	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  even	&#13;  today.	&#13;  I	&#13;  will	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you	&#13;  
this,	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  called	&#13;  him	&#13;  “husband”	&#13;  more	&#13;  with	&#13;  you	&#13;  two	&#13;  than	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  called	&#13;  him	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  
because	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  hard	&#13;  time	&#13;  with	&#13;  that	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  I	&#13;  call	&#13;  him	&#13;  my	&#13;  partner	&#13;  usually.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  
hard	&#13;  time	&#13;  calling	&#13;  him	&#13;  my	&#13;  husband.	&#13;  But	&#13;  basically	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  look	&#13;  on	&#13;  our	&#13;  marriage	&#13;  
certificate	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  exactly	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  says.	&#13;  Husband.	&#13;  But	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t—and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  
probably	&#13;  just	&#13;  me—I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  America’s	&#13;  ready	&#13;  for	&#13;  husband-­‐husband,	&#13;  wife-­‐
wife,	&#13;  although	&#13;  they	&#13;  seem	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  they	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  seem	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  having	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
problems	&#13;  with	&#13;  it.	&#13;  You	&#13;  hear	&#13;  Patrick	&#13;  Harris	&#13;  for	&#13;  example	&#13;  calls	&#13;  his	&#13;  other	&#13;  person	&#13;  in	&#13;  his	&#13;  
life	&#13;  “husband,”	&#13;  Ellen	&#13;  calls	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  in	&#13;  her	&#13;  life	&#13;  “wife,”	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  hard	&#13;  time	&#13;  
with	&#13;  it.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  easier	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  “partner”	&#13;  than	&#13;  “This	&#13;  is	&#13;  my	&#13;  husband.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  because	&#13;  
that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  brought	&#13;  up.	&#13;  
	&#13;

�MW:	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  back	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit,	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  your	&#13;  family	&#13;  and	&#13;  how	&#13;  
fortunate	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  them	&#13;  know.	&#13;  When	&#13;  did	&#13;  they	&#13;  know?	&#13;  	&#13;

SW:	&#13;  [Laughing]	&#13;  It	&#13;  hasn’t	&#13;  always	&#13;  been	&#13;  an	&#13;  easy	&#13;  road.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  home	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  Air	&#13;  
Force,	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  sister,	&#13;  who	&#13;  [then]	&#13;  told	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom,	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  dad	&#13;  had	&#13;  already	&#13;  
passed	&#13;  away	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom	&#13;  called	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  [pause]	&#13;  …	&#13;  well,	&#13;  my	&#13;  sister	&#13;  
told	&#13;  me	&#13;  she	&#13;  had	&#13;  told	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom,	&#13;  let	&#13;  me	&#13;  go	&#13;  back,	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  mom	&#13;  called	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  
guess	&#13;  you	&#13;  called	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  sis	&#13;  told	&#13;  you”	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “What?”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“that	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  gay”	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “she	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  nothing	&#13;  like	&#13;  that,”	&#13;  so	&#13;  mother	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  
of	&#13;  funny	&#13;  with	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  long,	&#13;  long	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  man	&#13;  and	&#13;  
who	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  woman	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “no,	&#13;  no,	&#13;  no	&#13;  it	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  work	&#13;  that	&#13;  way.	&#13;  You	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  
have	&#13;  a	&#13;  man	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman.	&#13;  We’re	&#13;  equal	&#13;  partners.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  
understand.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “I	&#13;  know,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  expect	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  understand.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  my	&#13;  
mom	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  California	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  funny	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  a	&#13;  statement	&#13;  that	&#13;  
she	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  understand	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  that	&#13;  live	&#13;  out	&#13;  here.”	&#13;  
[Laughing]	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “yes,	&#13;  there	&#13;  is.”	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
And	&#13;  so	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  my	&#13;  partner	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  visit	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  give	&#13;  me	&#13;  my	&#13;  
old	&#13;  bedroom	&#13;  and	&#13;  him	&#13;  the	&#13;  guest	&#13;  room	&#13;  [pause].	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  sat	&#13;  her	&#13;  down,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“Mother,	&#13;  we	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  talk.	&#13;  We	&#13;  share	&#13;  a	&#13;  house	&#13;  together.	&#13;  We	&#13;  share	&#13;  a	&#13;  bed	&#13;  together	&#13;  
at	&#13;  home.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  stepdad	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  house	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  not	&#13;  put	&#13;  you	&#13;  in	&#13;  one	&#13;  room	&#13;  
and	&#13;  him	&#13;  in	&#13;  another	&#13;  room,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  no”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “well	&#13;  then	&#13;  why	&#13;  are	&#13;  you	&#13;  
doing	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  me?”	&#13;  And	&#13;  she	&#13;  sat	&#13;  there	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  minute	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “you’re	&#13;  right,	&#13;  it	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  
make	&#13;  any	&#13;  sense	&#13;  does	&#13;  it?	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  this	&#13;  together	&#13;  at	&#13;  home…”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  
people,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  very	&#13;  respectful	&#13;  of	&#13;  people’s	&#13;  feelings.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  you	&#13;  will	&#13;  never	&#13;  see	&#13;  us	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  
public,	&#13;  me	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  arm	&#13;  around	&#13;  him	&#13;  even.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  
heterosexual[s]	&#13;  overly	&#13;  affectionate	&#13;  in	&#13;  public.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  place	&#13;  for	&#13;  
everything	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  public	&#13;  is,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know…	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  up	&#13;  sometimes	&#13;  and	&#13;  say	&#13;  
“you	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  a	&#13;  room.”	&#13;  [Laughing]	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  feel	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  with	&#13;  couples	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  gay.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
think	&#13;  too	&#13;  many	&#13;  times	&#13;  people	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  push	&#13;  it	&#13;  down	&#13;  somebody’s	&#13;  throat,	&#13;  you	&#13;  
know?	&#13;  You	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  accept	&#13;  us.	&#13;  Well	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  if	&#13;  you’d	&#13;  ease	&#13;  up	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  they’ll	&#13;  accept	&#13;  
y’all	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  better?	&#13;  But	&#13;  yeah	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  rough	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  while	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  family.	&#13;  [I]	&#13;  
had	&#13;  a	&#13;  brother	&#13;  that	&#13;  was,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  rough	&#13;  with.	&#13;  His	&#13;  first	&#13;  thought	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  kidnap	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  beat	&#13;  me	&#13;  straight.	&#13;  And	&#13;  [laughter]	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  so.	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “it	&#13;  
just	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  work	&#13;  that	&#13;  way,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know?	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  am.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  still	&#13;  the	&#13;  same.”	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  met	&#13;  
me	&#13;  today	&#13;  and	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know,	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  still	&#13;  be	&#13;  me.	&#13;  What	&#13;  I	&#13;  do,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  tell	&#13;  people	&#13;  this,	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  
behind	&#13;  that	&#13;  door	&#13;  is	&#13;  my	&#13;  business.	&#13;  What	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  side	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  door	&#13;  is	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  
your	&#13;  business	&#13;  because	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  public,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know.	&#13;  And	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  I	&#13;  look	&#13;  
at	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Doesn’t	&#13;  matter	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  behind	&#13;  closed	&#13;  doors.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  each	&#13;  individual’s	&#13;  
personal	&#13;  [business].	&#13;  
	&#13;  
55:19	&#13;  	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  visit	&#13;  your	&#13;  mom	&#13;  in	&#13;  California,	&#13;  how	&#13;  old	&#13;  were	&#13;  you	&#13;  when…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
55:24	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
16	&#13;  

�SW:	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  told	&#13;  her?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
55:25	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Yes.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
55:26	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Twenty	&#13;  four,	&#13;  twenty	&#13;  five	&#13;  something	&#13;  like	&#13;  that	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
55:32	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  that	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  so	&#13;  accepting.	&#13;  Is	&#13;  your	&#13;  mother	&#13;  still…	&#13;  ?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
55:36	&#13;  	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  No	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  passed	&#13;  away.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
55:38	&#13;  	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Sorry	&#13;  to	&#13;  hear	&#13;  that.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
55:40	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  But,	&#13;  my	&#13;  sister,	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  my	&#13;  nieces	&#13;  and	&#13;  nephews	&#13;  call	&#13;  Mark	&#13;  uncle.	&#13;  As	&#13;  a	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  
fact	&#13;  my	&#13;  niece	&#13;  probably	&#13;  talks	&#13;  to	&#13;  him	&#13;  more	&#13;  than	&#13;  she	&#13;  does	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  [its]	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  good	&#13;  
relationship	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  around.	&#13;  His	&#13;  family’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  way.	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  problem	&#13;  
with	&#13;  one	&#13;  member	&#13;  of	&#13;  his	&#13;  family.	&#13;  He	&#13;  had	&#13;  an	&#13;  uncle	&#13;  that	&#13;  would	&#13;  call	&#13;  and	&#13;  invite	&#13;  Mark	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Christmas	&#13;  socials,	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  say	&#13;  “you	&#13;  and	&#13;  Sam	&#13;  come”	&#13;  would	&#13;  just	&#13;  say	&#13;  “you	&#13;  come,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  
Mark	&#13;  finally	&#13;  told	&#13;  his	&#13;  daughter	&#13;  “until	&#13;  he	&#13;  says	&#13;  you	&#13;  and	&#13;  Sam,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  coming.”	&#13;  So,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  
going	&#13;  this	&#13;  coming	&#13;  weekend	&#13;  because	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  call	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  day	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “we	&#13;  want	&#13;  
Sam	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  social	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  house.”	&#13;  So…	&#13;  mark	&#13;  another	&#13;  one	&#13;  off.	&#13;  
[Laughing]	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  way,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  is	&#13;  moving.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
think	&#13;  as	&#13;  people	&#13;  get	&#13;  more	&#13;  educated	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  more	&#13;  accepting.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  truth	&#13;  to	&#13;  this,	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  tend	&#13;  to	&#13;  not	&#13;  leave	&#13;  more	&#13;  than	&#13;  25	&#13;  miles	&#13;  
from	&#13;  home	&#13;  tend	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  narrow	&#13;  perspective.	&#13;  Especially	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  happen	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  
from	&#13;  this	&#13;  area,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  never	&#13;  traveled	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  and	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  always	&#13;  
lived	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  “Bible	&#13;  belt,”	&#13;  you	&#13;  got	&#13;  those	&#13;  blinders.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  no	&#13;  gray	&#13;  area,	&#13;  
it’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  gotta	&#13;  be	&#13;  black	&#13;  and	&#13;  white,	&#13;  but	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  have	&#13;  gone	&#13;  to	&#13;  school,	&#13;  
that	&#13;  are	&#13;  educated	&#13;  and	&#13;  things,	&#13;  that	&#13;  opens	&#13;  up	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  new	&#13;  world	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  to	&#13;  everybody.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
57:39	&#13;  	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Absolutely	&#13;  [pause]	&#13;  So,	&#13;  coming	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  and	&#13;  being	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Leather	&#13;  club	&#13;  and	&#13;  
that	&#13;  having	&#13;  a	&#13;  huge	&#13;  influence	&#13;  on	&#13;  you	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  after	&#13;  you	&#13;  met	&#13;  your	&#13;  partner,	&#13;  so	&#13;  you	&#13;  
decided	&#13;  to	&#13;  stay	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  work	&#13;  or	&#13;  just	&#13;  because	&#13;  you	&#13;  liked	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  still	&#13;  
as	&#13;  a	&#13;  community?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
58:00	&#13;  	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  I’ve,	&#13;  like	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  said,	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  retire	&#13;  until	&#13;  last	&#13;  year	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  like	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  Of	&#13;  
everywhere	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  ever	&#13;  lived,	&#13;  I	&#13;  like	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  the	&#13;  best.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  never	&#13;  lived	&#13;  around	&#13;  the	&#13;  
mountains	&#13;  until	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  like	&#13;  living	&#13;  around	&#13;  the	&#13;  
mountains	&#13;  or	&#13;  not,	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  always	&#13;  say	&#13;  “well	&#13;  you	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  move	&#13;  to	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17	&#13;  

�California”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  “no,	&#13;  no.	&#13;  Too	&#13;  many	&#13;  people.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  joke	&#13;  with	&#13;  Mark	&#13;  every	&#13;  now	&#13;  
and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  like	&#13;  “we	&#13;  ought	&#13;  to	&#13;  sell	&#13;  the	&#13;  house	&#13;  and	&#13;  move	&#13;  to	&#13;  Florida	&#13;  since	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  retired”	&#13;  
and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “really?”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “no,	&#13;  not	&#13;  really.”	&#13;  [Laughing]	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  
that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  We	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  friends	&#13;  here,	&#13;  we	&#13;  
have	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  friends	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Winston-­‐Salem	&#13;  area	&#13;  where	&#13;  Mark	&#13;  was	&#13;  living,	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
of	&#13;  artist	&#13;  friends	&#13;  down	&#13;  there,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  hours	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  down	&#13;  there	&#13;  or	&#13;  a	&#13;  
couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  hours	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  up	&#13;  here.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  see	&#13;  us	&#13;  living	&#13;  anywhere	&#13;  else.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
59:09	&#13;  	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  So	&#13;  my	&#13;  last	&#13;  question,	&#13;  how	&#13;  would	&#13;  you,	&#13;  since	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  from	&#13;  ‘81,	&#13;  how	&#13;  
would	&#13;  you	&#13;  in	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  short	&#13;  summary	&#13;  describe	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  from	&#13;  ‘81	&#13;  until	&#13;  now?	&#13;  It	&#13;  
doesn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  short.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
59:27	&#13;  	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  A	&#13;  life	&#13;  full	&#13;  of	&#13;  adventures.	&#13;  From	&#13;  the	&#13;  day	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  here	&#13;  up	&#13;  through	&#13;  this	&#13;  morning	&#13;  
when	&#13;  I	&#13;  told	&#13;  Mark	&#13;  “good	&#13;  morning.”	&#13;  A	&#13;  life	&#13;  full	&#13;  of	&#13;  adventure.	&#13;  Nothing	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  
really	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  change.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  enjoyed	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  look	&#13;  forward	&#13;  to	&#13;  spending	&#13;  the	&#13;  rest	&#13;  of	&#13;  
my	&#13;  life	&#13;  here.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
59:53	&#13;  	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  wonderful.	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  thank	&#13;  you…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
59:55	&#13;  	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  You’re	&#13;  welcome.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
59:57	&#13;  	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  …so	&#13;  much	&#13;  for	&#13;  your	&#13;  time,	&#13;  Sam..We	&#13;  cannot	&#13;  thank	&#13;  you	&#13;  enough,	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  thank	&#13;  you	&#13;  
for	&#13;  letting	&#13;  us	&#13;  hear	&#13;  all	&#13;  about	&#13;  your	&#13;  experiences	&#13;  here.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
60:03	&#13;  	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  You’re	&#13;  welcome.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
60:05	&#13;  
MW:	&#13;  Really,	&#13;  really	&#13;  appreciate	&#13;  it.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
60:06	&#13;  
SW:	&#13;  Quite	&#13;  welcome.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;

�00:01
SB: Hi, my name is Sydney Brennert and I am here with Corey Murphy, and we are at Mill
Mountain in downtown Roanoke. The date is February 28 and it is 2:18 pm. So, can you tell
us…what is your name?
00:18
RD: My name is Ronald Davidson.
00:20
SB: Where were you born and what is your date of birth?
00:24
RD: November 21, 1948 and I was born in Roanoke.
00:28
SB: Where was your family originally from?
00:31
RD: Both of my grandparents were pretty much from this area…
00:37
SB: Okay
00:38
RD: …Franklin County down through Fincastle [Botetourt County], which are outlying counties.
00:43
SB: So did you have any siblings growing up? Can you tell me about your home life?
00:48
RD: I had one brother. He and I… we weren’t really close growing up. There were never any
problems about me being gay, I mean…that wasn’t the reason. He just went one way and I went
another way.
01:07
SB: Right. So you say that you and your brother weren’t that close, but he really didn’t have a
problem. So when did you find out or realize your sexual preference?
01:17
RD: Probably when I was in the military… which was in the ‘70s.
01:27
SB: So…what was that experience like? Were you outcasted at all for being gay?
01:33

	&#13;  

2	&#13;  

�RD: Well…most of the time we would go out and get drunk, there would be a bunch of us. And
we’d end up going back and taking a shower all together and then one thing led to another. But
then the next day, we would see each other and look at each other like nothing ever happened.
01:50
SB: Right, so before that, did you attend high school?
01:53
RD: Oh yes.
01:54
SB: So then…you weren’t sure that you were gay?
01:59
RD: In high school, I dated women, I played football, I wrestled…the whole nine yards.
02:07
SB: Did you ever marry or have children?
02:10
RD: No.
02:11
SB: Okay. Are you in a relationship now?
02:14
RD: Yes. I’ve been in a relationship for 35 years and we have been married for two [years].
When it was legal in Virginia to get married, I told him that we would get married. And we did.
02:28
SB: Do you live together?
02:30
RD: Oh yes.
02:32
SB: What do you guys like to do on your spare time?
02:35
RD: I retired, and my husband said that I couldn’t retire unless he did. So I said, “Well okay.”
We had gotten to the point that everything was paid for. We had some substantial, good income
and so we both retired. I sold one house. We moved into a smaller home that was paid for and
we travelled. I am a part owner in an antique mall and I travel around, buying and selling
antiques. It’s kind of a hobby.
03:15

	&#13;  

3	&#13;  

�SB: So you do that in the Roanoke area?
03:17
RD: Well I travel as far as Atlanta doing that, going to shows and going to big auctions.
03:28
SB: Okay. So, you never really left this area…because you said you grew up here.
03:33
RD: Yeah, pretty much I’ve stayed here.
03:36
SB: When you got out of the military, what was your occupation?
03:42
RD: I worked for Ingersoll Rand, that was a big industrial, manufacturing place. Then, I left
there and I went to work for Macado’s. I worked there and I kind of worked my way up to
where I was kind of my own boss. I was corden belong[?] with the owner. I travelled anywhere
from New York to Atlanta, Miami, just buying stuff for his chain of restaurants.
04:19
SB: Have you ever experienced any discrimination at Macado’s at all?
04:23
RD: No. No. Actually my partner and I, when he would have a big Christmas party—I mean he
owns twenty stores—it was a large Christmas party, my partner and I would be usually the first
people on the dance floor.
04:39
SB: It sounds like you had a pretty extensive social life then. Can you tell us about that?
04:44
RD: Well I’ve always been into the arts. I have a degree in interior design from the University of
North Carolina. It started out, I guess when I came back from the military, there really wasn’t a
big, good place for gays to gather. So, we would have dinner parties and we go from one
couple’s house to another couple’s house. There would be anywhere from five to fifteen
couples…that kind of thing. For a while I did some ballroom dancing that involved females,
especially at Hotel Roanoke…let me see as far as social… I’ve always been pretty much in the
artist type scene here in town. I’ve won the Heironimus Sidewalk Show…I’m a lifetime member
of the Fine Arts Council.
05:59
(Tapping on the table)
06:00
SB: Did you meet any interesting people along the way…on your social excursions?

	&#13;

�06:07
RD: You mean like…?
06:09
SB: …Like new friends?
06:10
RD: Celebrities or…?
06:11
SB: Celebrities? Anyone. Anyone that really kind of took you back, like wow. Anyone
influential?
06:18
RD: Nobody that really impressed me. I’m not really impressed with people.
06:22
SB: [laughing]
06:23
RD: I’m kind of impressed with what they do, not who they are.
06:27
SB: Right. So, are you active in the Roanoke community?
06:31
RD: Not as much as I did. At first when they had Pride in the Park…when they first started that,
actually it was in a park right across the street from my house.1 And I did a good bit of
fundraising for their… they have silent auctions, and that type of thing. And I knew a lot of
business owners in the Roanoke area that would donate stuff. They would donate it because they
were… I won’t say sympathetic, but they were for the cause.
07:03
SB: Right, yeah. So we were informed that you actually had started a motorcycle club…
07:10
RD: Well I didn’t start it, but I would say maybe I was a little instrumental in getting it going. It
wasn’t really a motorcycle club, it was a Levi leather-type thing. There were only a few
members that had motorcycles, but our biggest thing is we raised money for the community.
And we would go, there were other clubs around, we would go to D.C. or to Norfolk, and they
had chapters of the same type of club there. We would host runs where we would go bar
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

The first Pride in the Park festival was held in Wasena Park in 1989. According to an informal history written by
Charlotte Eakin, Pride in the Park was held in Wasena Park from 1989-1995; Highland Park from 1996-2003; and
Elmwood Park from 2004 to the present. See Charlotte Eakin, “PRIDE History,” c. 2006,

�hopping and that kind of thing, but most of the time it was to raise awareness and money for
different charities.
07:51
SB: So, you said before how there wasn’t really a lot places for all of you guys to go out, so you
would go to different couple’s houses…
07:57
RD: Yeah.
07:58
SB: Would you say that that has changed now, is there more environments for you guys?
08:02
RD: Oh yes, I feel like that we have really paved the way for the newer generations. Like the
gay and lesbian clubs in high school now, that was unheard of when I was growing up, unheard
of. And now they can be openly going to proms together, that was all unheard of. So I think we
kind of paved the way for all that. And now…it used to be there were certain restaurants and
stuff that would tolerate this, but now I think they all have to because they’re all in competition
to get patrons. And I will say probably, the gay community spends a lot more money than
people realize.
08:50
SB: So, now what are some types of places you go to?
08:55
RD: Now, I go to Macado’s, and one reason is because I know everybody there. And it has
become kind of a central hangout for the gays. The Park, I haven’t been in several years. I don’t
like the new music. Most everybody there, I could be their grandfather.
09:19
SB: [laughing]
09:20
RD: You know, I just don’t feel really comfortable.
09:22
SB: Right.
09:23
RD: In the younger days, we used to go to a place called the Garden Lounge in North Carolina,
and we would get a couple of loads of people and drive down there just for the night because
there was really nothing here. There was the Trade Winds, I’m sure you’ve heard about that
extensively, which I bartended at for a while. And then I hit all the regulars, O’Charley’s, all of
the rest of the restaurants that anybody else would go to, I go to.

	&#13;  

6	&#13;  

�10:05
SB: So, what do you feel are some of the more important changes in the area since you grew up
and realized “I am gay?” Have you noticed any important changes in the area, in the stuff that
you’ve been a part of, that you feel has changed, the stigma?
10:23
RD: Well, like I was saying, I think that the older crowd really paved the way for the younger
people now. That, you could probably go anywhere in town here now holding hands, as a samesex couple, and there would be very little said. When I was growing up here, you couldn’t do
that. You would be called names, or shunned of honor, or have something thrown at you.
10:56
SB: So, growing up, did you ever experience discrimination?
11:02
RD: My size and I’ve always been very outgoing. I’ve always been able to fend for myself and I
have never had problems with it at all. I mean as far as people calling me names because if they
did I’d probably kick the shit out them.
11:20
SB and RD: [laughing]
11:22
SB: Touché. So did you ever really face any struggles or hardships growing up?
11:29
RD: No, not really. I grew up, my mom was a CPA [Certified Public Accountant], my dad was a
business owner. He always had anxieties for me to take over the business, but I did not feel like
being a mechanic. And so my brother kind of stepped in…and then, my brother was an alcoholic
and he ended up…he didn’t take over. My parents just ended up retiring and closing the
business down.
12:06
SB: So, in the military, let’s go backtrack to that.
12:13
RD: Okay.
12:14
You said that you guys would go out and what not, and then shower together, and then the next
day it would be totally normal, like nothing happened.
12:21
RD: Right.
12:22

	&#13;  

7	&#13;  

�SB: Was that like an everyday type…not every day, but reoccurring?
12:25
RD; Eh, most weekends.
12:26
SB: Okay. And so…
12:29
RD: And actually I did have one of the rarest experiences. There was a bar in Norfolk, and I was
stationed at the base there. And one of my friends, that I had got[ten] to know, he said, “Do I
want to make some extra money?” And he said, “Well there’s a wrinkle room over here.” And I
go “what in the world is a wrinkle room?” And it was older men that would pay younger men
for sex.
13:01
SB: interesting.
13:03
RD: I ended up going home with an older…Navy, I don’t know if he was a Captain, but he was
an officer, and I don’t remember a whole lot about it, but I remember there were right many
people there, and I remember he gave me $100 to get a cab home.
13:25
SB: So, would you say that…
13:27
RD: [laughing]
13:30
SB: Do you still think that these things like still occur, in the military?
13:37
RD: They probably occur everywhere, whether it’s in the military or not in the military. “Escort
services” I guess now, they would be called. It was hush-hush then. That $100 that I got from
that guy, I called a buddy of mine on base, and told him to come and get me, I never did get a
cab, and I kept that $100.
14:05
SB: What’d you spend it on?
14:06
RD: Oh I don’t know. I just thought that was just the wildest thing in the world.
14:15
SB: So, tell us more about your military experience. What were your daily duties, daily tasks?

	&#13;  

8	&#13;  

�14:22
RD: I ended up going to submarine school. I spent six years in. I was on a nuclear submarine
out of Holy Loch, Scotland. I was in during Vietnam, but we never saw any action, we were just
on the ready, on the outside in case something happened. I was in tear[?] communication. I was
in charge of all the communication going on and off the boat. It was pretty boring.
14:54
SB: Now that you’re obviously out of the military, and you’re living in Roanoke, and you’re
retired, at this point in your life, what is something that is important to you?
15:10
RD: My partner is 13 years younger than I am. When I go I would like to make sure that he is
very well taken care of. I have a nephew that is in prison right now, and he has robbed the
family so many times, that I have nothing for him at all. So, my partner is the main one. He has
a brother that we really think a lot of, that we will probably leave something to. Other than that,
I’m the end of the line.
15:52
SB: In college, you said you went to UNC. Can you tell us some of your social experiences
there, what did you like to do on the weekends?
16:04
RD: I’d usually come home.
16:06
SB: Okay. I feel like that’s a far hike.
16:09
RD: Huh?
16:10
SB: Is that a far drive, from here to there?
16:11
RD: No. No, it’s like two and a half hours.
16:15
SB: And so, you would just go home to your family home?
16:17
RD: Yeah. Or there were a couple of theater groups there that sometimes I would help with.
Painting sets and backdrops that I would help out there. I’ve only had really two jobs in my life
and I’ve only had two lovers.
16:44

	&#13;  

9	&#13;  

�SB: When you did come home on the weekends during college, what were some of the things
that you would do in the area?
16:49
RD: We would just get together with friends and maybe go bar hopping, or go to somebody’s
house. There was always a lot of dinner parties.
17:01
SB: What do you think are some challenges facing gay people in Roanoke today?
17:11
RD: That’s a tough one. It seems like Roanoke has become the hub of Virginia and North
Carolina. There’s always been, since the 1940s, it’s always been like a gay hub. People come
from other places to live here because it was a little more tolerable, but I don’t know.
17:40
SB: So…
17:41
RD: I think they’re already accepted and there could always be a little more of that, but maybe
educating some of the people. Even the ones that are gay to make good choices, and ones that
aren’t gay to realize that we are humans. But as far as making things better, I don’t know.
18:19
SB: You say that you wish that there was a little bit more acceptance, there is already, but it’s
always good to have more. When you first came out, was your family accepting? Can you tell
us a little bit about that experience?
18:32
RD: The first time I came out, that I heard of a bar in Roanoke, I was in the military. I took
leave. I had a girlfriend. We went to a bar called the New Wood, which is no longer there. I
told her I was going to go outside and smoke a cigarette. Well I didn’t, I went across the street to
the gay bar because I had never been there. I walked in and I asked the guy, he was a Lebanese
guy, the Georges, which I got to know a whole lot better later.2 I asked him, I said, “Am I in the
right place?” He said, “Well the bar is downstairs.” So I went downstairs and here was all these
people, it was like another little world. There was a nice restaurant upstairs, but then there was a
bar in the basement. Then I left and I went back with her. Later, we went out again and I told
her, I was going to come out to her. Her mother was one of the drama coaches at Hollins
College, so I’m sure she had been around a lot more gay people than I had, even though she
wasn’t gay. Well I took her to this Tradewinds, and as I was going down the steps I told her—I
don’t want to say her name—“When we go in here there’s something I got to tell you.” We
opened the door and went in, and she knew everybody there. And this was going to be a surprise
for me, and she knew everybody there. From then on, we were just kind of friends
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;  

The Tradewinds bar was run by a pair of gay Lebanese-American brothers, Herbie and Lewis George.

10	&#13;  

�20:17
SB: Do you think she already knew?
20:19
RD: I think she did.
20:21
SB: So she took it well when you came out and said it.
20:24
RD: Oh yeah, well like I said, she knew everybody there. And I didn’t know anybody, and I was
going to come out to her, but I think she knew. As far as my mom and dad, my dad was a drill
instructor in the Marines. He was one of the last survivors at Iwo Jima. My mom was fine with
it. My dad would never talk about it. He wanted me to be a man. He didn’t realize that if you
were gay you were a man, I guess. But, mom was fine. Mom would cut things out of the paper
and put them where he would see them, and have to read them. And he would because he read
all the time, but he never would discuss anything with me. Nothing at all.
21:29
SB: So was your relationship with your dad kind of distant?
21:32
RD: No, it was pretty good, but I think he was a little ashamed. I think he was a little ashamed,
him being a big military man, and [to him] that kind of thing just wasn’t right.
21:51
SB: Do you still talk to any of the guys that you hung out with in the military?
21:57
RD: Oh no. No, I have no idea where they are.
22:01
SB: Would you be interested ever trying to reach out to them or finding them?
22:05
RD: No. I think that’s just a chapter that’s behind me. I don’t have any regrets, but I don’t see
any reason. There’s more people in my past that I would like to reach out to than them.
22:19
SB: Who are those people that you would like to reach out to?
22:22
RD: Oh, some people that maybe I was in college with, or even some of the people that I grew
up with that moved out of town, or even some cousins…fourth or fifth cousins, that I’ve only
met once or twice.

	&#13;  

11	&#13;  

�22:38
SB: So your family now, that you have…
22:43
RD: I don’t. My dad’s been deceased for ten years, and my mom…[no,] fifteen years [for my
dad] and my mom for ten years, and then my brother…he’s been deceased for probably ten
years. I have no brothers and sisters, or grandparents, or mom and dad. I have first and second
cousins that are eighty years old.
23:11
SB: And do you hang out with them at all?
23:14
RD: Most of them. I have some cousins that live in Florida, that we’ll go down and visit them,
or they’ll come up and visit us. And my cousin, they live in Florida. His daughter, she has a
black boyfriend. She has two children by marriage, beautiful kids. And then she has a black
boyfriend, and then she has a white girlfriend. And her boyfriend is like a babysitter, that’s all
he does, and she goes out and parties. So we get along real good and we’re on Facebook a lot
talking, and that kind of thing.
23:58
SB: So they don’t have a problem with you being gay at all?
24:02
RD: No. Oh no. No.
24:06
SB: So…I’m trying to think here…
24:09
RD: [laughing]
24:10
SB: We’ve covered a lot and it’s only been 24 minutes. We talked about how you worked at
Macado’s. Can you tell us the experience that you had there and a little bit of what exactly you
did? You said you actually decorated the inside of it.
24:26
RD: It was a good working experience. The owner and I were good friends. Of course him
being a multimillionaire, he has a lot of people that want to be his friend. Even today, if him and
his wife are fighting, he’ll get a six-pack and come over to the house, and we sit on the deck, and
he’ll spill his guts and just talk. We’re still just friends. But he and I would travel to Atlanta and
he would stay there one…we would go to a big, huge auction…and he would stay there one day
with me, then he’d go off to play golf in Pinehurst or something, and just leave me. Then, I’d
buy whatever I wanted to and then I’d fly back.

	&#13;  

12	&#13;  

�25:16
SB: So at these auctions, what are some of the things that you do?
25:20
RD: Oh, I would buy stuff that was just neat, weird, strange…
25:24
SB: For Macado’s.
25:25
RD: Yeah. Just to decorate. I always liked when he’d open a new store, we used to be able to go
in…We’ve got a warehouse that’s probably half as big as a football field, that’s packed, when I
left there eight years ago. We liked to go in and say, “Oh we’ll take this, and this, and this, and
this.” We could just pick through it. A lot of times… I bought a pair of boots, that are Justins,
they are 10 feet tall. They were advertisement, but they’re 10 feet tall. I bought the two boots
out of California and had them shipped here, and when they came in, he said, “What in the world
are we going to do with those?” I said, “I don’t know, I just think they’re neat.” I had a really
good job.
26:16
SB: Do you miss it at all?
26:18
RD: Yeah.
26:20
SB: What do like to do during the day? If you’re retired, what are the some of the daily things
that you like to do to have fun?
26:29
RD: I still like to take off and hit some antique shops and just look around. I’m always tinkering
with something. I’m good with electronics. But, there’s not much else… watch TV.
26:52
[Stopped the recording to regroup and reset the line of questioning. RD interrupted again and
we quickly put the recording back on.]
26:53
RD: …know that didn’t have it as well as I did growing up. They would be called fags, and
throw stuff at them, and their cars vandalized, but I never had any of that. And I always knew
that I was fortunate.
27:09
SB: Do you have any close friends that experienced hard times?
27:17

	&#13;  

13	&#13;  

�RD: Not close friends, but people I knew.
27:21
SB: Right, so that must be difficult to hear because you didn’t have that rough of a time. I
assume it was hard to hear.
27:30
RD: Yeah. But a lot of it I think they brought on themselves. Flaunting stuff, or saying
something to somebody who’s straight that they know they don’t want to hear.
27:47
SB: For the most part, were you kind of conservative with it, and wouldn’t really put it out there?
27:53
RD: Right, I’ve tried to live my life just as a normal person, except I have a different sexual
preference. Where we live right now, our neighbors absolutely love us. We have keys to all of
their houses, they leave and they want us to check on their dogs. There’s a woman that lives
beside me, that’s eighty years old, and she’ll bake cakes and pies, and bring them over to the
house. It’s just a good relationship.
28:27
SB: I’m glad to hear that. What would you say is the biggest…
28:40
RD: I just thought of something. You were saying that one of the biggest problems…I do think
that the gay scene has a bigger drug problem. Anybody I’ve ever known to get any drugs from
were gay. Or any of them that hurt themselves because they were high, were gay. I don’t know
if [it was] because they were oppressed, or what it might’ve been. But it seems like years ago, I
don’t know about today because I’m just not hip with everything right now, but I know years
ago…if you wanted to buy liquor after hours, you needed somebody gay that had it at home that
were selling it, or pot. We never were into doing cocaine and heroin. You might do a little
speed or a little weed and that was about it.
29:48
SB: So on nights out, you and your partner would just drink and have a good time. Do you have
friends that kind of went a little crazy with drugs or anything like that?
30:04
RD: Not close friends. Uh, I’ve known some people, but I wont say they’re close friends, that
you know have done harder drugs and stuff. I know a lot of them, around the drag queens, I
know I mean that they seemed like those people were always doing cocaine. I mean
I don’t know if they needed to get their nerve up or what it was but they were always doing
cocaine, but they were staying up all hours of the night.
30:42
SB: Were you ever interested in doing that kind of stuff?

	&#13;  

14	&#13;  

�30:43
RD: No, I can’t say I haven’t done it
30:48
SB: Mhm.
30:49
RD: But it’s a habit. I’ve done it... I would look at at it like now this makes people lose
everything they have, their job, and makes them rob from their parents you know? Now how
good can this be. You know, I just I don’t think there could be anything that good.
31:11
SB: When you told your parents that you were coming out, did you, were you ever worried that
you would lose, lose, everything?
31:19
RD: That I would lose everything? Well my parents never gave me everything to start with. Now
my.., I was always a little resentful of my brother because, you know, he had three or four
children, was married a couple of times. He lived in one of their houses. He worked for my dad.
You know, my dad was constantly getting him out of trouble. And I’m the one... I went off to
school, and I went into the military. I never asked them for anything, so they didn’t really have
anything they could take away from me.
31:55
SB: Were you worried about losing them at all?
31:58
RD: Oh well yeah always, always. They, they lived to be, you know, in their eighties.
32:04
SB: Mhm, but losing them I guess if they weren’t okay with you being gay. Do you think, did
you ever like, worry about that?
32:14
RD: No, I don’t think I ever. I don’t think I ever thought that. I don’t think I ever thought that at
all.
32:21
SB: Do you have any friends that you lost along the way because you were gay?
32:24
RD: No
32:26
SB: So everyone was pretty much accepting?

	&#13;  

15	&#13;  

�32:28
RD: If they were friends they wouldn’t.
32:33
SB: So what would you say was the most influential event growing up that made you who you
are today?
32:46
RD: Hmm
[Long pause]
33:00
RD: I don’t know.
33:02
SB: Or a couple events? Anything.
33:04
RD: You mean an event, or a person, or?
33:07
SB: An event, a person, anything influential that really sticks out to you as something that made
you who you are.
[Silence]
33:24
RD: Uh, I couldn’t say. I don’t know.
[Long pause]
33:46
RD: I’ve always, like, kind of liked the finer things, and it seems like if you like the finer things
you’re going to be around gay people. I mean, I don’t know why that is but…
34:06
SB: Good taste.
34:07
RD: Yeah, I guess. Good taste. I fight with my husband all the time about... I collect a lot of
things. And like you can put a nice... I have marble-top tables, and I’ll put a lamp on it and four
or five... I see how much stuff I can get on it, and he don’t want it. He wants to put the lamp on it
and that’s it, but if there’s a spot usually I can find something to put on it.

�34:33
SB: Have you ever designed like the interior of someone else’s house and stuff like that?
34:37
RD: What?
34:38
SB: Did you ever, um, design someone’s interior of their house or stuff like that?
34:43
RD: I’ve done some kitchens and some bathrooms. You know, just that kind of thing. But not
really.
34:53
SB: And so what led you to Macado’s if you majored in interior design?
34:59
RD: Well, I had left Ingersoll Rand and I had a friend—she had an antique store—and so I was
working there and she was like gone all the time so I pretty much ran the store. Well then I got a
chance to run an antique mall that used to be here in Roanoke. And I did that. Well then the city
took the building, and the people that owned it, the building [that] had the antique mall, he [also]
owned Macado’s. And so I just went from there into Macado’s.
35:41
SB: And so he hired you knowing that you were going to be designing and picking things out for
the inside of Macado’s?
34:46
RD: No, not at first, not at first.
35:49
SB: So at first what, what did you do? What was your job for Macado’s? Just a server?
35:55
RD: Oh no. I’ve never worked in the restaurant. I went to work on the construction crew, and we
were, you know, like building booths and just that kind of stuff, doing like the layouts, and I
would pick the fabric for the cushions, and then he just kept giving me more and more and more
to do, and I just ended up doing just that.
36:23
SB: So while designing the inside of Macado’s, like how did you get the vision to get all these
crazy things and just stick them everywhere?
36:30
RD: I have no idea. I have no idea.

	&#13;  

17	&#13;  

�36:35
SB: It just like came to you?
36:36
RD: I guess it is just a [way of] looking at things different than… I can kind of see ahead, look
[at] like what the end result is going to be before it is there. A lot of times I would be doing
something and he would [be] like “why you doing that?” and I said “it’ll work out. It’ll work
out.” And then when I finished it, he’s like “wow, isn’t that great!”
37:00
SB: So how long did it take you to do everything from start to finish?
37:04
RD: What the restaurant?
37:05
SB: Mhm.
37:07
RD: Uh, three or four months
37:09
SB: Not too bad.
37:11
RD: No, usually it was three or four months.
37:14
SB: And so along the way of picking things up and antiques and stuff like that for Macado’s, did
you meet anyone interesting along the way? Like would you buy antiques and crazy things from
interesting people?
37:27
RD: Well, I guess I bought some [of the] original light fixtures from outside of the Hotel
Roanoke. I bought some light fixtures from out of the old the Roanoke Theatre that’s been closed
for a long time. Meryl Streep did come in[to] the antique shop and did a lot of shopping for her
friends. It was on a Sunday I think and we were closed, and she called Saturday and said could
she come in, and I said “well if its just you,” and I went down and opened the shop and she came
in and she bought four or five thousand dollars worth of stuff.
38:07
SB: Wow.
38:08
RD: Just, just little knickknacks and stuff to give her friends.

	&#13;  

18	&#13;  

�38:12
SB: Did you meet anyone else famous in that…
38:14
RD: Uh
38:14
SB: …line of job?
38:17
RD: Yeah. There was a guy, a little short actor. I can’t think of his name. Well, he was doing a
movie down at Smith Mountain Lake. And I did… We loaned some stuff for Dirty Dancing, up
at [Smith] Mountain Lake with Patrick Swayze, we loaned them some stuff one time but that was
about it. They’re just people.
38:56
SB: And so what made you really want to retire if you loved it so much?
39:03
RD: I like to travel. We take a couple of cruises a year and we’ll take a trip out to Charlestown to
the horse races, or we’ll go out to Vegas. We do something every about three months probably.
39:16
SB: What has been your favorite vacation spot?
39:19
RD: Oh Lord… Belize.
39:26
SB: What kind of stuff did you do there?
39:28
RD: Huh?
39:29
SB: What kind of stuff did you do there?
39:30
RD: In Belize?
39:31
SB: Mhm.
39:32

	&#13;  

19	&#13;  

�Rd: You can live like a king for nothing there. I mean, absolutely. We’ve looked into buying a
place there. I mean, you can buy a 300,000 dollar home for like 40,000 dollars, and plus you can
get a maid that’ll live there for like, you know, twenty dollars a month.
39:58
SB: Wow, so what other things?
39:59
RD: It’s just nice to relax, and I like to go out fishing.
40:01
SB: Mhm.
40:02
RD: You know, that kind of thing.
40:04
SB: So, what other destinations have you visited?
40:08
RD: What?
40:09
SB: What other destinations have you gone to?
40:11
RD: Well we’ve been… I haven’t been to Europe. But just mainly Mexico, South America...
I’ve been to Venezuela. Where else have we been? Well, let’s see… we’ve been to Seattle, went
to Vancouver. We like Aruba, too. Aruba’s really nice.
40:48
SB: So you mentioned before that you had gone to Vegas.
40:52
RD: Oh yeah.
40:54
SB: [Laughing] Can you tell us about that experience?
40:54
RD: My mom and dad like to gamble and they would go about every four months, three or four
months. And my mom’s nickname was Totsy, and I’ve got a caricature of her in my den and it
says “Slotsy-Totsy.” She liked to play the five-dollar slot machines, and I saw her win thirtyseven thousand dollars one time. Now my dad, he liked to play blackjack. Hundred dollars a
hand, and he would never tell you whether he won or lost. But we used to do a father-son
gambling trip. We would go up to Atlantic City. And he always told me whatever I took, he

	&#13;  

20	&#13;  

�would match it and give it to me. And so, so he would. Most of the time I’d lose, but most of the
time he’d win. [Laughing]
41:49
SB: So were there any trips that you and your partner and your parents would take?
41:53
RD: Me and my parents used to go to Vegas, but Danny’s been with me everywhere we go.
42:01
SB: And so how did you meet him?
42:06
RD: One enchanted evening across a crowded room, at The Park.3
42:13
SB: [Laughing]
42:15
RD: He said I was stalking him. And I told him, he said, and I don’t know, but he said that I
came up and I said “you’re going home with me,” and he said “no, I’m not either,” he said I was
drunk. And he said later, when he saw me and I wasn’t, he said “well I think I kind of like him.”
And he was actually renting from a good friend of mine, and I went over to this friend’s
[apartment]. We were going to… my parents had a summer home in Craig County, we were
going over there and he came out and we talked, and I asked him if he wanted to go over there
and he said “yeah,” and we were together ever since.
43:00
SB: Wow, so after that whole thing when you first had met, where did you guys usually go out
for like dates and stuff like that?
43:10
RD: Tradewinds, The Park, Last Straw. Then there was another one… My friend who had the
house that he lived in, he owned a little gay bar on Kirk Avenue then called the Nite &amp; Day for a
short period of time. He was a country and western singer.
43:37
SB: That’s pretty cool [laughs]
43:38
RD: Well, he even had a Hank Williams Jr. look alike thing [and] he would do a gig in Vegas.
He had a tour bus.
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

This appears to be a reference to the song “One Enchanted Evening” from the Broadway musical South Pacific
(1949). The lyrics of the song go, in part, “One enchanted evening, you may meet a stranger, you may meet a
stranger across a crowded room.”

	&#13;  

21	&#13;  

�43:47
SB: And would you go out there with him?
43:49
RD: No, no. I never went. And then we’d take off usually. You know the movie “Sordid Lives?”
43:58
SB: I don’t.
43:59
RD: Huh?
43:59
SB: I don’t.
44:00
RD: Write that down and rent it. Its one of the most funniest movies you will ever… Its called
“Sordid Lives,” its got like Delta Brooke [Delta Burke] in it, and Burke, and its got a lot of
famous people in it but it’s a “trailer trash” movie with a lot of gay people in it and people trying
to quit smoking, but anyway they do a thing on that up at Timberfell, that’s the place we go up in
Tennessee. It’s a gay men’s resort. And its just people act out the parts in the movie. It is so
funny.
44:42
SB: So what kind of things go on at an all men’s resort?
44:45
RD: Well it’s all naked and, uh, well they have saunas, there’s backpacking and horseback
riding. People bring their pets. It’s just a lot of… I’ve met airline pilots, and doctors, and lawyers
from all over the country there. It’s just a getaway. You know you’d think it’d be like a lot of sex
and you know cause everybody is walking around naked but it isn’t. You meet some of the nicest
people. You meet a lot of married people that have boyfriends on the side and they’ll come up
from Florida and you know spend a week up there. Just to get away.
45:31
SB: Did you go there a lot?
45:32
RD: We usually go once a year. In the summer.
45:37
SB: So do you feel that your essential identity is based on your sexual orientation? So do you
think that you would be different if you weren’t gay?
45:51

	&#13;  

22	&#13;  

�RD: No. No. I’d probably [be] married and have four or five kids and probably be in debt up to
my butt, but that’d be the only thing. [Laughing]
46:04
SB: So you never wanted to adopt kids?
46:07
RD: We thought about it but I’m too old. I mean you know I’m too old to do it. If I were younger
I would definitely think about it. I would definitely think about it. But kids are for young people.
46:26
SB: Agreed. [Laughing]
46:27
RD: I’ve got two dachshunds.
46:30
SB: And so do you usually like take them around town, walk around and what not?
46:35
RD: No, not really. I mean they’ll go on trips with us
46:39
SB: Yeah
46:40
RD: But if we drive. But, well one of them is three years old and the other one is five months.
And one of them is a standard dachshund and the other one’s a miniature dachshund. They’re
good dogs.
46:57
SB: So those are your babies. [Laughing]
46:58
RD: Huh?
46:59
SB: I said those are your kids.
47:00
RD: Oh yeah, and they don’t want for anything.
47:05
SB: [Laughing] Back to Roanoke. Do you think that there are any important events that happen
in Roanoke that kind of changed the stigma around the gay community here?

	&#13;  

23	&#13;  

�47:20
RD: Except for Pride in the Park? See I think personally Pride in the Park has gotten to be just a
carnival. You know, when it first started it, I think it had a good substance about it but I don’t
think now it has like the real.,. Its gotten so commercialized and you know with all the vendors
and I mean we didn’t have that then.
47:57
SB: So when did you realize that it was changing and more commercialized?
48:00
RD: When it moved from Highland Park to Elmwood Park.4
48:05
SB: And so were some of your best friends.. .
48:07
RD: It was a little more private then..
48:09
SB: Right, and you obviously liked that more.
48:11
RD: Yeah.
48:12
SB: So what exactly goes on during that?
48:16
RD: What? Pride in the Park?
48:17
SB: Yes.
48:18
RD: Oh they have guest speakers in and there’s just, you know, a lot of kids. I think there’s a lot
of gay people that have children and you know they bring all their kids. There’s face painting
and it’s just… That’s not for me.
48:40
SB: Understandable. So politically, what are your thoughts on how Roanoke has changed over
the years? Do you think that there’s been legislat[ion] passed...
48:54
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

According to an informal history written by Charlotte Eakin, Pride in the Park was held in Wasena Park from
1989-1995; Highland Park from 1996-2003; and Elmwood Park from 2004 to the present. See Charlotte Eakin,
“PRIDE History,” c. 2006, http://www.roanokepride.org/history.html (Accessed March 24, 2016).

	&#13;  

24	&#13;  

�RD: I think because of the big gay population here, I don’t think Republican, Democrat, or man,
or woman that’s running for anything, I don’t think they would want to step on their toes. So
they will be supporting them to get their vote. If somebody came out and they were really antigay or whatever, and they came out on a platform like that, they may as well shoot themselves.
49:31
SB: [Laughing]
49:34
RD: I mean, and there’s a lot of officials in town that have kids and have brothers and sisters that
are gay. They’re very prominent people in town.
49:46
SB: So overall though, your experience in the Roanoke area is pretty, pretty good?
49:51
RD: Yeah.
49:51
SB: For being a gay man?
49:52
RD: Yeah. And I will say that women have had it easier than men because you know its every
straight redneck’s dream to have sex with a lesbian and change them over [laughing]
50:14
SB: [Laughing] True.
50:15
RD: Well its true.
50:15
SB: [laughing] yeah.
50:16
RD: Oh they love to see two women having sex but they wouldn’t dare watch two men. You
know, they just think that’s the hottest thing in the world.
50:23
SB: Why do think that there’s that stigma?
50:26
RD: I don’t know. I think the men that think that they’re not challenged by a woman.
50:38
SB: All right.

	&#13;  

25	&#13;  

�50:39
RD: …where they would be by a man
50:42
SB: Well I think that’s about it, so we would just like to thank you for your time
50:48
RD: [Laughing]
50:49
SB: Do you have any closing remarks or anything you’d like to say?
50:57
RD: No, not really.
50:58
SB: [Laughing] Okay. Thank you Ron.
51:00
RD: Not that I haven’t had already.
51:02
SB: [Laughing]
51:04
RD: Did y’all talk to Danny? Jones?
51:08
SB: Did we talk to Danny?
51:09
RD: Danny Jones?5
51:11
CM (Corey Murphy): I believe that the man who referred you to us, or the man who referred...
51:16
RD: He used to be the librarian here.
51:20
CM: We talked to someone, I forget…
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

Gregory Rosenthal conducted an oral history interview with Daniel Jones on February 20, 2016 for the Southwest
Virginia LGBTQ+ History Project: Oral History Initiative. That interview is also catalogued within the LGBTQ
History Collection at the Virginia Room.

	&#13;  

26	&#13;  

�51:22
RD: Danny Jones?
51:22
CM: It might have been him.
51:25
RD: I think he said he did it in the office at Roanoke College.
51:29
CM: Yeah, I honestly think it was him.
51:31
RD: Was it him?
51:32
CM: I think so.
51:33
RD: A beard?
51:35
CM: I didn’t see anyone. We talked to someone else, but I don’t...
51:41
CM: via email, yeah
51:43
RD: Because like I met him when I first got out of the service. And we’ve been friends for fifty
years, forty years.
51:53
SB: Wow that’s a long time

RD: [Laughing]

Interview (1:20:04 total)	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:00 Alexis: It is 1:30 pm, Thursday, February 25, 2016. My name is Alexis Rixner, and
I am a Roanoke College student, and I am here with Virginia Lindsey in the Fintel
Library located in Salem, Virginia. I am conducting this interview of an oral history as a
public record for the community. Our first question is “What pronoun do you use to
identify yourself?”	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:26 Virginia: She.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:31 Alexis: Why did you agree to participate in this project?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:36 Virginia: [pause] To make people more aware that we exist. That we’re no different
from anyone else and we expect to be treated like anyone else would be. It’s the golden
rule: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:01	&#13;  Alexis: Mhm, definitely. What do you hope to gain out of this experience?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:05 Virginia: Just the satisfactions that I may have helped someone else understand that
there are differences in people.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:16 Alexis: Mhm, ok. How long have you lived in Virginia?
	&#13;  
1:26 Virginia: Ooh [sighs] Hm, that’s interesting. [Another pause for thought] Let’s just
say, virtually all my life. Between Virginia and Tennessee.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:41 Alexis: Virginia and Tennessee?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:42 Virginia: It gets pretty complicated but it was something kinda out of my hands.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:48 Alexis: Ok, so what areas of Virginia did you live, if you could just name them all.
Was it in this area?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:55 Virginia: Yeah, in the Roanoke area.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:57 Alexis: Ok.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:58 Virginia: I went to a private school called Fork Union [Military Academy].	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:03 Alexis: Fork Union?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:05 Virginia: Yep, for quite a while.	&#13;  
	&#13;  

2	&#13;  

�	&#13;  
2:07 Alexis: and would you say most of your adult life has been in this area?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:10 Virginia: Yes.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:14 Alexis: Ok, so what was it like growing up I guess predominately in Virginia? Like
schooling, I guess financial status, etc.? What was it like for you? You can do a
progression.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:26 Virginia: Well it’s, again, it’s a complicated issue. I was raised by my grandparents.
And I would assume that they interpreted the child that they were dealing with to have
what is now called “HADD” or “HADA” or whatever [ADHD: Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder] and I was in private schools from, I was 4 ½ [years old] until I
graduated.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:56 Alexis: Wow, ok, and what about… [Virginia interrupts to clarify] 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:00 Virginia: These are military private, military schools.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:02 Alexis: Military schools? Ok. Were your grandparents in the military or they
just…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:06 Virginia: No. My mother and father were. But again, that’s you’re… [slightly
chuckles], we could spend the rest of the afternoon discussing that little…“thing”.
Anyway, I was in private military schools when I was 4 ½ until I started in college at 18.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:23 Alexis: And how was your experience in these private schools? What you said.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:28 Virginia: How was it?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:29 Alexis: Yea, how was your experience?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:31 Virginia: It’s all I knew. I mean you started a child off at 4 ½ in a very disciplined
type of environment and that’s all they know.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:38 Alexis: Mhm.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:39 Virginia: And that’s all I did.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:44 Alexis: Ok, so after high school, what were some of your favorite high school hang
out places?	&#13;  
	&#13;  

	&#13;  

3	&#13;  

�3:52 Virginia: In school, we didn’t have any. We were on the campus 24/7. When I’d
come home from vacations, or whatever, it was just… I had a few friends and we’d just
do what most kids did back at that time.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:09 Alexis: Which was?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:11 Virginia: Just riding bikes, hiking, playing. We didn’t have video games, hello!	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:19 Alexis: [laughter]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:20 Virginia: [joins Alexis in laughter] That’s all we had. Just bikes and friends and just
doing whatever kids did back then.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:26 Alexis: Ok and what were your hang out places as you grew up? Like after 18.
What it the same: similar or different?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:35 Virginia: You mean in college?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:37 Alexis: Mhm.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:39 Virginia: Well, I was on the football team, on the gymnastics team, I worked three
jobs going through college. So I didn’t hang out much, was pretty busy.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:56 Alexis: So just tell me about some of your childhood friends.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:03 Virginia: I had two that I specifically remember. One of them lived right down the
street. He and I did everything kids did when I was home. Just riding bikes and playing
and baseball and softball and whatever kids did. The other one lived kind of across the
street from me and from what I understand they’re both deceased now. But you know,
after I graduated from high school, went to college, we kinda lost touch and I didn’t have
any real reason to go back.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:45 Alexis: Ok, so do where did you go to college?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:47 Virginia: Tennessee Technological University.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:50 Alexis: That was a big difference from Virginia?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:53 Virginia: [laughter] You take a kid from a disciplined military environment where
you had obligations 24/7, to no obligations to do anything and it’s a big change.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:10 Alexis: How’d you adjust?	&#13;  
	&#13;  

	&#13;  

4	&#13;  

�6:13 Virginia: Well, I almost flunked out of my first, the end of my second quarter cause
I just…there was nobody there to tell you what to do. You just kinda did you own thing.
And just, somewhere along the way it just clicks: “You can’t do this.” And the football
coach got me aside and said, “You know, you’re gonna flunk out if you don’t get your act
together. And we’re gonna give you a tutor.” And I knew the stuff, I just, I didn’t go to
class, I didn’t study, it was like the spring had been compressed all 18 years and all of a
sudden, it was free! But I don’t know about your college history but mine, I just…
probably starting in the middle of my sophomore year, it clicked. I knew who to ask
about which professors wanted what and how to get through. And my last two years I
averaged about a 3.8/4.0 average because it started to make sense. Plus the fact that what
I had wanted to do all my life was coming to fruition, which was be a naval aviator. And
I talked to the recruiters and they kinda set me on a straight and narrow, too. “We’re not
gonna take idiots! We’re not gonna put you in a multimillion dollar aircraft if you’re
stupid.” [Laughter] You know? So that was part of the process.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:49 Alexis: Ok so, did you stay in Tennessee in the summer?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
7:56 Virginia: Oh yea, I was working three jobs. I worked in the athletic department, I
was a lifeguard at the local pool for the students, so during the summers that’s what I did.
I took a few courses during the summer and worked. Cause I didn’t have any money and
that was the only source of income, what little bit of scholarships that I had, and the jobs
that they gave me.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
8:23 Alexis: Ok, describe what your grandparents thought about your childhood and into
your adulthood? And were they supportive of your decisions? Like your grandparents,
were they supportive of you going to school, college, and stuff?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
8:43 Virginia: Well, no, not really, I don’t…I’ve got a very complicated history. Just,
like, my real grandfather was killed in World War One. [pause] If you have time, I’m
gonna tell you a quick story.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
9:02 Alexis: Definitely.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
9:04 Virginia: To me it’s interesting. Here was this 15 year old girl, she got pregnant. 15
years old. The guy that got her pregnant, my grandfather, he had a best friend. He goes to
his best friend and says, “Let’s sign up and join the war effort!” This is World War One.
And he made a pact with his friend, he said, “If I don’t come back,” he said, “I want you
to marry…” you know, my grandmother. Well, I said he was killed in World War One.
His friend did come back and did marry her. So that became my step-grandfather.
Raised me like his own, they never had any children other than raising myself. They
footed the bill for my going to the private schools. I did work through Fork Union as a
waiter. So that helped defray a lot of the costs. But I waited on tables there a lot of the
time. It never dawned on me it was that’s what I did, you know? I didn’t know how
much money it provided, who it helped, whatever. I just, that was what I had to do and
	&#13;  

5	&#13;  

�that’s what I did. So, when he passed away, she kinda lost it. They’d been married fifty
years, forty years, I don’t know. Whatever. And as far as my processes after that, I don’t
think she really ever got involved. I was funding my own college and I would come
home and see her and stayed in the house but other than that, it was no involvement. She
didn’t ask me about my grades or my friends or anything. She just… so anyway. Does
that help? Confuse?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11:05 Alexis: No, not at all.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11:06 Virginia: Oh…well, I’m confused [laughter]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11:07 Alexis: haha!	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11:08 Virginia: I’ll go back a little bit. My father, I got on ancestry.com and I found, if
I’m taking too much time, you can stop me…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11:16 Alexis: Oh no.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
11:17 Virginia: I got on ancestry.com two, three years ago. And looked up my
matriarchal side of the family and was able to find my father, and one my earliest
remembrances of transgender, cross-dressing, was done by my grandmother. Now get
this, I couldn’t have been more than 6, 7 years old. She put me in a dress. I remember this
just like it was yesterday, put me in a dress. And you may have never seen a picture. The
old bonnets that women used to wear. She was half-Comanche. She lived in Texas in a
house, swear to God I remember it like it was yesterday. She put me in that old, sack
dress, a bonnet, gave me a handmade broom, and had me sweeping her floor. Honey, it
was a dirt floor.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12:20 Alexis: [laughter]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12:22 Virginia: Seriously.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12:23 Alexis: Wow.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
12:24 Virginia: And I could just picture myself back then, just like it was yesterday. I
don’t know why, she was just the sweetest thing. Anyway, I found out my father had…
she had seven, eight children. I still can’t find my grandfather on that site. His name is
not listed in any of the records! It just lists her name and eight children and they were all
considered laborers in Texas. Cowboys... [sighs] Having some fun now? Go ahead.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:01 Alexis: Going back to, did you have any other experiences with your grandmother
dressing you up?
13:06 Virginia: No.	&#13;  
	&#13;  

6	&#13;  

�	&#13;  
13:07 Alexis: No?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:08 Virginia: That’s the only one I remember. That’s the only time I ever saw her in
my lifetime. Couldn’t have been more than a couple of days cause I was staying with my
father. And my grandparents had driven us to Texas and rumor has it that they were
trying to put me off on him and he didn’t want anything to do with me. So they ended up
keeping me and drove back to Tennessee.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:36 Alexis: What were some of the most difficult periods in your life and how did you
deal with them?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
13:50 Virginia: [long pause] Wow, I can’t answer that. I mean you would need to be a
lot more specific. I mean, are you talking about in military school, military high school,
college, adulthood? Because I’m unique and I assume it’s based on being in military
school from the time I was 4 ½. I do my own thing. I didn’t have anybody to support me.
It was either me or them and I decided it was gonna be me. So any difficulties that came
up, I handled it. I didn’t have anybody to turn to, no shoulder to cry on. You just put on
your big girl panties and do your thing.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
14:40 Alexis: If I had to specify, college.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
14:43 Virginia: College. [pause] The most difficult?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
14:47 Alexis: Yes, sorry.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
14:49 Virginia: Ah, yeah well it was when I almost flunked out and sitting down and
talking to myself, explaining to myself that, “You got into this school. Why are you
flunking out?” And it dawned on me, I don’t go to class. You don’t do your homework.
You think it’s a big party. It’s not, this is real. And once I got over that, and started
figuring it out and getting some support from the head football coach and the Navy guys
that I talked to. That’s what did it.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
15:23 Alexis: Do you still have a close relationship with your head coach?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
15:27 Virginia: Oh, he’s been deceased a long time. Honey you’re talking to an old
broad, here. Most of the…I went back to Tech. Oh it’s been, I don’t know fifteen years
ago, and all of the coaches and all of the people that would have had any influence on me
had either retired and moved to Arizona or deceased, so…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
15:55 Alexis: What about in adulthood? Most difficult period as an adult?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
16:08 Virginia: [pause] I don’t consider it difficult. I just consider it a challenge,
overcome it and move on.	&#13;  
	&#13;  

7	&#13;  

�	&#13;  
16:15 Alexis: So, if you could think of one memorable challenge that just sticks within
your mind, what would it be?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
16:25 Virginia: It was very short lived. My second wife, who is now deceased, was at
UVA and they had drilled three holes in her head and… [pause] I was coming back, I
won’t forget, I was coming up Afton Mountain, know where that is? Between
Charlottesville on [Interstate] 81 and it was like 3 o’clock in the morning and that was
probably the most difficult. I was trying to figure out what I was gonna do. What was
going on, how was I gonna be able to handle all of this? That was probably the most
difficult, just, for that instance. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:25 Alexis: So talk about your second wife. Can you tell me about your earliest
relationship you would remember?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:33 Virginia: Relationship?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:34 Alexis: I guess your early relationships like dating wise and stuff.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
17:40 Virginia: Ah! I decided… I would have to regress to the fact of my grandparents
not being involved, my father, or my step-grandfather, was a civil engineer. And he
recommended that I take some additional math courses while I was home for the summer.
So Bristol High School, Bristol, Tennessee, had summer school and they checked it out
and found some math courses that they thought I would be… it was advanced geometry
and something else. Anyway, you know I thought “what the heck, I’ll do it.” So I went in
and I’m sitting in the class, with probably 15 or 20 other kids, and I was sitting by the
window. It was an “L” shaped building, and over in the other building I see this gorgeous
girl. I mean her hair was down to her waist, and she waved back. And that was probably
my first real relationship. I found out she just lived across the street from the high school
and her family and her brother was a big basketball player and got a full scholarship to…
is it Carson-Newman [University]? Anyway, that was, we were together for a while. Her
parents were just the sweetest people. It was interesting, she ended up marrying another
naval officer. [Laughs at the memory]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:32 Alexis: Are you currently in a relationship?
19:34 Virginia: Yes. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:36 Alexis: If you’re comfortable, tell me about this relationship.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
19:42 Virginia: I met her, and she is—I don’t know what term you all would like to
use—I call them “GGs,” genetic girl [a cisgender woman]. I met her through a support
group on the internet and we just hit it off. And she’s fond of telling anybody that asks,
she and I are on the same page. We are on a need to know basis. But her saying is, she’s
	&#13;  

8	&#13;  

�got the best of both worlds. And well, she’s scary like a lot of GGs are. She knows what
I’m going to say before I even say it. If I think about doing something, she’s already
thought about doing it and it’s a skill that GGs evidently have. I haven’t quite evolved to
that yet. But, we’re just like that. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
20:58 Alexis: Regarding your sexuality, what is your sexuality preference of partners?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
21:11 Virginia: Interesting question too, you know where that red phone is out there…
[laughter]? One of your, and I call it a blessing to have what I was evidently born with...
most... let me say that if you're gay, and most people see the word “gay” they assume
male. They like other males, “lesbian” is female and they like other females, pretty cut
and dry. But when you toss in the term... the terms transgender, cross-dresser, queer,
searching, I just... the list just goes on. We live, we, myself, in an entirely different
universe, that gays don't quite understand it, lesbians don't understand it, I don't know
that they really care. Straights definitely don't understand it or a lot of them, they may not
understand, they accept it. “That's just the way that person is…” Whatever.
My philosophy or my theory of this whole thing is, that if you're in my universe, be it
whatever you are, transgender, cross-dressing, I... that is the biggest problem that my
universe has. “What are we?” And I guess this kinda gets to be a educational thing. I see
it as a continual, okay? Just arch, and pardon my description but this kinda of just brings
it down to what it is. On the front end you have the person and I'm going to address
males. The male that puts on a pair of panties once a year, that's it. Why he does it? for
the relief? Whatever. Then you have the person who puts them on twice a year, and then
the person that dresses full and the one who dresses and puts on make-up. And you got
this whole continuum, nobody's static on it, they all, you can transfer from one part to
another. At the far end of the spectrum is the person that lives as female, twenty fourseven, but has had no surgeries, maybe they've had facial surgery, maybe they've had
breast augmentation, they have not had SRS [sex reassignment surgery] because when
they reach that point where they’ve reached SRS they've been on hormones, they've taken
everything else. They are no longer to me considered male. They're female. So
somewhere on that continuum each of us—and unbeknownst to probably 90% of them—
you’re trying to find a balance in your life to live with this… I call it a gift, I wouldn't
change who I am for anybody, it’s a gift.
Now again you all are not to the point where you can psychoanalyze me. You can have
your own opinions, but you're not. I am one of the fortunate few that has a balance, okay?
You can call it split personality, you can call it some whatever medical psychological
condition you want. When Virginia's Virginia she's Virginia. When her alter ego is out
that's who he is and fortunately with the balance aspect, there is no conflict and that's the
beauty of how I exist. One supports the other. If Virginia wants to get dressed and go to a
movie or go out to eat, that's fine. If the alter ego—which I could give you some things
which just might boggle your mind—but whatever he wants to do she supports it 110%.
And that's where a lot of these people, and you read about it all the time, the suicides and
	&#13;  

9	&#13;  

�everything that happens, they don't have that balance and it's sad, it's unfortunate but
that's just the way it is. And if something like this can help those people find that balance
and I've talked to a lot of [transgender] girls if you will in my position, you got to find
that... “I'm trying, I'm trying, I can't find it, I just… I don’t want this, I want...” Sorry. I'm
not a psychiatrist I can't help you. I can only tell you what should work and if that doesn't
work for you... seek professional help. Does that help, I mean I just [chuckles]… I don't
want to bore you…
	&#13;  
26:35	&#13;  Alexis: So how did you find this balance?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
26:37 Virginia: I don't know, it's just comes with the territory.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
26:42 Alexis: I guess my question is at what age is your first memory of when you
started to identify as she or have some internal thinking, or something in the back of your
head...?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
26:55 Virginia: Again, it was like when my grandmother dressed me up, that was about
[age] 6. Age 4 1/2 at that military school they put on a little play and I couldn't have been
much... maybe 5 [years old] at the most. They put on a play and I will never forget the
teacher’s name, and she's been dead for God who knows how long, Ms. Maxine, you
don't have to bleep that out because she's [dead] [chuckles]. She took a couple of us back
in the kindergarten room. Lipstick, make-up, a dress, some funny looking little shoes. I
was to be a Gypsy girl. And again it was like it was yesterday... I can remember twirling
and dancing across the stage in my part of the play. That was my first indoctrination into
it.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:02 Alexis: And how did you feel, do you remember the emotions?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:06 Virginia: It felt like that's who I was.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:10 Alexis: And you felt this way, well of course you felt this way, but when did you
start the transition into out in the open presenting yourself as a she. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
28:26 Virginia: [pause]	&#13;  That's a... to go out in public, probably the mid-1990s. I mean it
was always there. What brought it to fruition was this support group I was in, and a
couple of the girls said “you know, we enjoy talking to you, but you need to clear your
mind and go back in your history and look at what you've done that you're denying
having done, intentionally or unintentionally.” That's a good idea. And I took a day and
just turn off all radios all the noise and everything, and I got to thinking about it. And I’d
go back and I thought of different things that had happened to me in that from 4 ½ [years
old] to that point in time. And again, that's what gets a lot of these girls, if you will, into
problems because they suppress it, they repress it, they deny it, they ignore it, it’s there.
Not everybody, but a lot of guys have that... I see these, pardon my terminology,
rednecks driving around in their pickup trucks with the big beard, the plaid shirts, the
	&#13;  

10	&#13;  

�blue jeans. You know the gun rack in the back and I'm like what are they hiding, is it
[chuckles] maybe they’re a female and they’re just at that point where they’re trying to
repress it, deny it, ignore it... Fine. That's what you do. I mean it’s just... again I can't
speak for anyone else other than what I've seen, but for me it’s always been there and
partly because of that little aspect.
And I'll tell you exactly what happened and again y'all can think I'm psycho. I don't really
care because you don't sign my paycheck, but it’s one of my philosophies. You don't sign
my paycheck I don't owe you nothing. Not a good attitude, but it works for me. I don't
share this with too many people, but I'll do it. Like I say it was about 3 o'clock on, 3
o'clock in the morning I left her and they got tubes running out of her head and arms and
whatever, and I'm trying to decide how I'm going to handle this... and just as sure as I'm
driving up that mountain and I can almost picture exactly what happened, it was like this
ghost, I don't know, sitting there next to it, said “honey, you have a problem... I got the
solution.” I swear it was my mother, my grandmother, somebody. It’s where I got my
name. My mother’s name was Virginia, my grandmother's name was Irene. I go by
Virginia Irene, because again, they’re buried in Flintwood Cemetery in Bristol,
Tennessee. And the second time I visited them, Virginia visited them, [I] was not using
that name, I had chosen a different name. And I was dressed [as a woman], walked up to
the headstones, and it was like something just washed over me that I thought “they're
proud of their daughter and their granddaughter.” And to honor them, again it was like, I
don't know how you describe it, but I see their names down there “Virginia,” “Irene”...
why not?... That's where I chose the name from. Am I getting too weird for you, I'm just
... I mean you want know, I'm gonna tell you, I got nothing to hide in that aspect. So, that
was later when coming up Afton Mountain and it was like just this entity, whatever, said
“we're gonna work this thing together.” And since then, it’s been awhile formulating it,
but women, GGs [cisgender women], so much stronger than men. You just, you have no
idea. Maybe not physically, but emotionally, mentally, there's just no comparison. I'm not
getting weird? Okay. Is that helping, I’m not…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
33:26 Alexis: Yes, of course. So tell me about, I guess, how your relationships have
changed when you made that final transition to be she out in public in the 1990s. Like
how that changed your relationships with coworkers or with friends that you knew during
that time?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
33:45 Virginia: Well, I didn't have that many friends. Like I say, I got that balance and if
Virginia's alter ego is out among his friends, that's who he is. They haven't got a clue
cause I work on a need to know basis. If I know someone who needs to know about
Virginia, then I don't mind telling them, or vice versa. I mean... y'all got to understand
you know deep down I'm not, I've had nothing done. I’ve never taken hormones, I've had
no surgery. I've been told I pass, whatever that means, in most instances. In other words a
guy would say he sees a woman, and that doesn't bother me... that's not what I'm trying to
do. I’m just who I am, and any genetic benefits I get from that I trace back to my mother

	&#13;  

11	&#13;  

�and my grandmother. They were just drop-dead gorgeous, both of them. So, I mean, like I
say I got that balance and if I come in a situation…
I got a very good friend, that’s a lesbian, and she and I trained together. I’ll tell you this
story because I am so proud of what happened. She and I trained together in an athletic
event for many years. And her mother developed a disease which was similar to
Alzheimer’s, but it’s not the same thing. And one day we were over at her garage which
was set up as a training facility. And we were training. She knew, she knew that Virginia
existed. She’d never seen her, but she knew. Because we talked about it, because she was
a lesbian and she started dating a guy, then she went back, she was trying to find herself.
We would go to athletic events and sleep in the same room, never touched each other, we
were just the best of friends. And, she asked me one day, she said “we cannot accept the
lady that’s taking care of my mother. She’s not doing the job we want done.” … she said
“why don’t you do it?” I said “excuse me?” She says “you can do it.” And I said “don’t
you think that she would rather have a woman taking care of her?” Brings tears to my
eyes… [pause] She looked me straight in the face and she says “well you’re a woman,
aren’t you?” Dead serious… the greatest compliment I have ever received. And I did start
taking care of her mother for four years. I was holding her hand the day she died [Tears]
I’ll tell you this quick story if you got time. Her husband, my training partner’s father,
was a—I hate to use the term—[whispers] asshole. He didn’t care one way... As long he
knew she was being taken care of, one way or another, he didn’t care.
My current… my partner, she and I came up with this thing to take this woman to
Richmond. She was wheel chair bound, she could not communicate. Now this woman
had an IQ in excess of 160. She had taught advanced engineering at the University of
West Virginia to engineering students. I mean this woman was brilliant. The disease she
had was like a light switch, it was off, everything worked, but nothing would come out.
She couldn’t talk, she couldn’t hardly move, anyway we [voice breaks] put her in her
wheel chair, put her in the car. Asked her husband, of course, if we could take her to
Richmond. He said I don’t care [voice breaks and tears]. We took her to Richmond.
There was a private club in Richmond called Feldman’s, which no longer exists, which
was gay and lesbian.1 But on Fridays once a month they would allow transgendered
[persons] in. So, they were having their Ms. Feldman’s Contest. Betty had never seen
Virginia. I think she understood, who knows? But I got dressed up in the motel room and
came out and she looked at me. I could just see the look in her eye, “what the…?” But,
hey, it’s too late now. I put her in her wheel chair and took her to dinner and I tried to
feed her and of course she was like…. like this [indistinct body language]… and I talked
to her for a while and she could hear and I know she knew what was going on, she just
could not respond, poor thing. She’d have probably smacked my teeth out [chuckles]. I
finally got her to eat, then she grew a little more accepting and finally she just… I was
just another girl with her. So the three of us go to Feldman’s and I pushed her wheel chair
right to the front row. We sat in the front row and all these entertainers came out, did
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1	&#13;  A	&#13;  reference	&#13;  to	&#13;  Godfrey’s?	&#13;  Or	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  an	&#13;  establishment	&#13;  called	&#13;  Feldman’s?	&#13;  
12	&#13;  
	&#13;  

�their thing, and she was just smiling, just having a great… of course they come down and
tease with her and everything, they didn’t know who she was. I don’t think they knew
who I was. It was just a fantastic experience. Now, Virginia’s alter ego is who took care
of her, because the husband would have freaked out. I mean, he would have just totally
lost it, but that time [at Feldman’s] was cool. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
40:18 Alexis: What time period was that, like in the year?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
40:22 Virginia: 2003, probably from 2003 to 2007, because I took care of her for about
four years, about 6 days a week. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
40:39 Alexis: So going within Roanoke do you have any particular hangout spots or any
affiliated support programs or groups that you….?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
40:50 Virginia: I use to go to The Park, but god that music is just so loud. I’m good for
maybe ten minutes, but that’s it. I know several of the girls that go there that are TG
[transgender]… I’ll talk to them on Facebook once in a while, but if I want to go out, I’ll
go out. We go …but the one concert I remember specifically was The Celtic Women,
they came to town and had a concert. And my partner and I went to that. And, I got a nice
compliment there too but I won’t go into that. [chuckles]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
41:30 Alexis: What happened?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
41:33 Virginia: Well…oh…[laughter] It sounds like I’m bragging, but hey, I mean it
happened. We were sitting four rows, four seats in, and these two couples came in, and it
was strange the two guys sat together and the two girls [sat together], and during the
concert I just had to go to the bathroom, I just had to go. So I got up, you know, and you
ease yourself out and I just [laughter] right in front of that little girl just before I stepped
out the guys holler out, I swear, one those guys turned to me and he says “nice ass!
yeah!” [laughter] I did have on a pretty tight skirt. Anyway [laughter]. No, I just do…
you know, I go to movies, anything I want to do. Go shopping, dining out, whatever.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
42:26 Alexis: So back to when—we kind of moved on—but what is your preference on
your partners? The sexual orientation of your partners? Males? Females?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
42:41 Virginia: In all honesty, I guess you can say I am bisexual. Not that I have.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
42:51 Alexis: Have what?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
42:52 Virginia: Thought about it. I mean having a relationship with a male or a
relationship with a female or another TG [transgender person]. Sex is sex, if you’re
treated the way that you present, like you want to be treated. Just back to the first thing…
do unto other as… If they’re nice and you’re nice and everybody gets along and there’s

	&#13;  

13	&#13;  

�no complications per se. Sex is sex, you both enjoy it, have at it. What are you grinning
about? [laughter]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
43:34 Alexis: Would you say you’re more attracted to the personality or the appearance?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
43:40 Virginia: The personality. Appearance is gonna be the first thing you see, but once
you get past that, you get to know somebody. Then if you’re comfortable with them and
you know you want to go to bed with them and they want to go to bed with you. Always,
tell them on the front end, “you realize I’m transgender?” “Oh man, that’s such a turn
on…” Okay, as long as you understand on the front end. Cause that’s what gets a lot of
these girls into trouble, and I don’t remember how many were killed last year. There’s
already been five or six killed this year, and I’ll guarantee ya that 99% of them never told
them [their sexual partners]. They get in the room or wherever they’re meeting up and the
guy just goes berserk and that’s it. You got to tell them on the front end. I just feel so
sorry for them. Does that answer the question a little bit?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
44:40 Alexis: Yes. What important message would you wish to leave to others regarding
sexuality? 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
44:50 Virginia: (Speaks slowly) Sexuality?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
44:52 Alexis: How you interpret it?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
44:58 Virginia: [pause] In the physical aspect it’s just like I say if you have somebody
that you’re comfortable with and they’re comfortable with you, it makes no difference,
male/female. Keep it in the human species please. [whispers] That was a joke [laughter].	&#13;  
	&#13;  
45:17 Alexis: What would you like to see changed in the South Virginia/Western area in
dealing with sexual orientation? What changes would you like to see?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
45:35 Virginia: [pause] I’m a tell you a story. And I’m not casting dispersion…well I am
casting dispersions on them. Have you got more questions about history?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
45:50 Alexis: No.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
45:53 Virginia: I was one of the original members, back in the early ‘90s, of a group
called the Blue Ridge Society. I’m sorry it escapes me exactly how I met the young lady
that started it. She lived in Lynchburg, but we had several meetings here in Roanoke
where she would rent a suite at this nice hotel, I won’t say which one, and there would be
six or eight of us who would show up and we just do what girls do. We just sit around
and talk. A few of them had problems and stuff. That was, to the best of my knowledge,
the first transgendered organization.

	&#13;  

14	&#13;  

�We went to a Christmas party at one person’s house that had this gorgeous home out on
the lake. Had to be in ‘95, Christmas of ‘95. And their wives were there and there were…
it was just a conglomerate, but it was mostly for the Blue Ridge Society members.
Probably six or eight of us would show up. The young lady that started it left the area.
The company she was working for sold to another company and her skill level was such
[that] they wanted to keep her, but wanted her transferred to another place, which she did.
In the process the organization as it existed was turned over to moi. Again, somewhere
along the line the name was changed to the Blue, what do you call it, the Blue Ridge
Transgendered… whatever. And we would have meetings at my home and again, we’ll
get eight or ten people to show up. We had a girl coming from Richmond, another one
from West Virginia, another one from down in Charlotte. Again this was the internet, in
its early stages, and we would communicate that way.
A girl came from West Virginia, a very authoritarian type, nice girl, but you could tell
she wanted to be more and more and more involved, and I finally just turned it over to
her. I said “why don’t you take it over, because my job is such [that] I can’t be here for
all these meetings we need to have.” She took it over, kept the name, began setting up
meetings at local hotels and stuff instead of… in their ballrooms and stuff. [Laughter]
One of the coolest things: we had a meeting on a Halloween evening at the Holiday Inn
down there in Tanglewood…. Now I want you to picture this. You got a bunch of crossdressers, transgendered, whatever, dressed up. We had a nice meal. There were probably
ten, fifteen of us. So the meals over and we talked business or whatever we were talking
about. This had to be in 2000/2001, anyway. Let’s go to the bar and get a drink. Well
three or four of them, “I got to get home,” and so the party breaks up and there were like
eight of us left. So we go to the Holiday Inn, what’s it called, the Elephant Walk, I think
is the name of that bar down there. Now remember this is Halloween evening on a Friday
in October. You probably don’t keep up with this, but what happens on Halloween in
October just south of here? Can you say NASCAR? Can you say Martinsville? [laughter]
Here are these 6, 7, 8 of us, we just go charging into the bar, it was wall to wall…what’s
the word… REDNECKS [laughter]. I mean, we had no problem at all, I mean there were
some of us dancing with some of them [chuckles]. They were offering to buy us drinks
[laughter]. Oh God, it was such a trip. But we had no problems it was just, here we are us
just charging into this bar, with just wall to wall rednecks that were here for the
NASCAR, Martinsville race [laughter] Good Times! I lost my train of thought, what
were we talking about? 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
51:09 Alexis: What would you like to see changed…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
51:12 Virginia: Oh yes.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
51:14 Alexis: …regarding sexual orientation?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
51:16 Virginia: Well the, within this area? Okay, the girl that took it over, after a couple
of years was transferred to Texas. She tried to run it, the local organization, in Texas, but
	&#13;  

15	&#13;  

�that didn’t work out. So, she eventually turned it over to the current administration, which
runs the Ladies and Gents of the Blue Ridge Transgendered Society.2 And again, if you
want to bleep this out that’s fine, I understand. Their website says that they have 311
members. Roanoke, Virginia. Ladies and Gents of the Blue Ridge Transgendered has 311
members. I asked Dr. Rosenthal at a meeting [of the Southwest Virginia LGBTQ+
History Project], I said “Trish and I are the only two here.” I said “They got 311 members
and neither of us are members, why don’t they have a representative here? You would
think out of 311 members they could come up with somebody that would show up?”
There was a meeting at the UU [Unitarian Universalist] Church trying to get this group
reorganized after the lady had moved to Texas and it was… [sighs] there was some
difference of opinion and I won’t get into the gory details. But Trish is married, I’m in a
relationship, the other couple that was there was in a relationship, both… this girl is
amazing. She’s 72 – 73 years old, goes on a cruise, a 7-day cruise by herself as her alter
ego. What kind of girl do that? But that’s where she’s coming from. Her wife is very
accepting. She claims they are in an open relationship, whatever that [means]. The six of
us, the only couples that were there, were ex-communicated, I don’t know any other word
to use. We were thrown out, or asked to leave, because we were saying “here is what we
need to do. This this this and this.” Trish had been involved in setting up an organization
in Charlotte.3 Big organization, “we need to do this this this and this.” Transgendered
association. “We’re not doing it that way, we don’t want to hear anymore from you, why
don’t y’all just leave?” Basically what happens. “Screw you. We’re out of here.” So Trish
and her wife and me and my partner get together quite often. We have dinners, go out to
eat, go whatever. And we are just not involved with them anymore. Now, do you think
there are 311 members in this area? All she’s done is taken her friends from Facebook
and claim that they are members of this organization. I would venture to say you can
count on three fingers the number of active members that she has. Her and two others. I
can name them, but I’m not going to. And I… hey, do your thing, girl. Just don’t call us.
I was having meetings at my home up in Bedford and we’d have 12, 15 girls show up.
We’d have cook-outs up there, just had a great old time. And, that’s before she took it
over. She does her own thing. I mean it’s all about her. You can bleep it out. It’s fact. At
one of the Pride in the Park [events], they awarded her the most progressive member of
the board type of thing. She gets up makes a ten-minute speech and never once
mentioned anybody, it was all about her. “Well, I did this and I did that.” Trish and I
were there and our mouths fell [open]. She offered nothing. “This person helped me do
this, this person helped me do that. I’m so glad my group is up here, or we got a tent,” or
nothing. It was all about her. “I did this, I did that, I helped so and so collect this, and I
appreciate this award, and I’m so proud to have earned it. Just… thank you, on the up
side she has done some good things. She’s done them on her own and taken full credit for
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
2	&#13;  Ladies	&#13;  and	&#13;  Gents	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Blue	&#13;  Ridge	&#13;  –	&#13;  Transgender	&#13;  Alliance.	&#13;  
https://www.facebook.com/groups/LBRTA/	&#13;  	&#13;  
3	&#13;  See	&#13;  oral	&#13;  history	&#13;  interview	&#13;  conducted	&#13;  with	&#13;  Trish	&#13;  Valentine,	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  same	&#13;  oral	&#13;  history	&#13;  project,	&#13;  in	&#13;  
LGBTQ	&#13;  History	&#13;  Collection,	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  Room,	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  Public	&#13;  Library.	&#13;  
16	&#13;  
	&#13;  

�every bit of it as her own. Which is fine, that’s her. Except Trish and I do our own
thing… whatever [pause]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
56:15 Alexis: Would you say…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
56:17 Virginia: You want to bleep all that out, it’s fine. But it’s what’s happened. Rumor
has it that she has claimed credit for setting up the organization. No, I can trace this back
to the early ‘90s. The Blue Ridge Society is where it started, not with her in the mid[2000s]… 2005, 2006.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
56:41 Alexis: So would you say that the difference, the falling out, was her personality or
the goals that she had for the organization? Or what was the main factor?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
56:52 Virginia: Personality. I mean it’s just all about her. The world revolves around her.
The last I heard she is in the process of transitioning. She’s got two small children,
they’re not small anymore. I don’t know what the status of it is because I don’t ask, I
don’t want to know, I don’t care. I do my thing, I’ve got that balance. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
57:20 Alexis: Okay, so this is basically a wild card. This is a chance to speak freely
which you kinda already have, which is great, about your experiences and contribute to
the LGBTQ community of history. So anything you would like to talk about. That you
think is…?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
57:39 Virginia: I’ve had some interesting experiences. Roanoke Pride put on a dance at
what used to be the Sheraton, it’s changed names six times in the past few years
[chuckles]. And a girl that I knew who I helped transition, that was probably one of the
greatest events in my life. I was with her from the time she decided she was gonna
transition. I was with her at the doctor for ten days. At the clinic when she had the
operation. My name is the first person she asked for when she woke up after the
operation. It was incredible. And that’s why… people just don’t understand. You want to
choke them. We are who we are. Humans are so complex it’s just amazing. She was born
to be a woman, she was a woman. She just had a piece of equipment that just didn’t work
out and had it removed. But she and I are good friends and we went to this, I went to the
meeting to find out. I stood up and asked them, I said “will you allow transgendered
people there?” The vote was 6 to 4, 6 for and 4 against allowing transgendered [people]
to come to this dance! So I say… “girl, you and Jack, we’re going,” so we showed up, but
before that we got to talking we said, “what will you do if someone asked you to dance?”
Now think about it, you go to a dance, a guy walks up and says you want to dance, you
got two choices: yes or no. Ok, this was gays and lesbians! You’ve heard of gaydar, a
date, I don’t care how good I look or how good Trish… they read you. Basically, “that’s
a guy in a dress! I don’t care how good she looks. That’s a guy in a dress!” Lesbians
don’t want anything to do with you. We both look good. We’re sittin there, I remember
the guy’s name, [he] walked up and he said “Virginia, would you dance with me?” I
came out of that chair like there was a spring under me [chuckles]. Now, let me tell you,
	&#13;  

17	&#13;  

�those gay guys can charm your panties off. I mean he was a perfect gentleman, led me to
the dance floor, danced and hold me, you know, just like a gentleman should. Dance was
over, back to my chair, he pulled the chair out for me, you know, sat down. And it was
just a totally unique experience. Just, and that’s one of the things that just reinforces it,
for me, my balance. Virginia’s Virginia. She’s a woman. I could have said no, and I
chose to dance with him. So that’s just the way that I am. Unfortunately most TGs
[transgender persons] aren’t that way. They’re still struggling with who they are and how
they have these feelings, everything. That would be the thing that I would want to leave is
“try and find that balance, because if you don’t there are just too many horror stories out
there.” And the guys that get caught, the wife comes home earlier, then catches them in a
dress. The first word out of their mouth is, what do you think the first thing the wife asks
when she catches him in makeup or whatever?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
61:28 Alexis: Sorry?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
61:33 Virginia: If you were married and you came home and your husband was wearing
some of your clothes. What will be the first question you think you’d ask him? 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
61:41 Alexis: What are you doing?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
61:43 Virginia: Well, you can see what he’s doing. The very first [question]…are you
gay? That’s the very first thing. [laughter] And in 99% of the cases the first thing [the
wife] either thinks or says is “Are you gay?” And then if they are willing to discuss it,
and they don’t run screaming into the night, “are you going to transition?” So, you try
and help people. Find that. I got a friend right now the wife caught him, dressed. And
they’re still trying to work through it. It’s just, it’s something that girls just can’t get their
mind around. I’ve got a daughter that knows. She’s never met Virginia, she doesn’t want
to meet Virginia, she just, she accepts it to the point that she just can’t get her mind
around it. And it’s like, it just doesn’t exist. My son, same thing. He’s never met Virginia,
but as a doctor he told me, he said “if that’s your thing, have at it.” That’s the only thing
that has ever been said. Now are we…
I’ll tell you one other story. My second wife, when she found out, I told her “I don’t want
you to tell anybody until I work through this.” And, it got screwed… anyway, she said “I
want you to go talk to a psychiatrist, a psychologist.” I said “fine.” I walk in the guy’s
office, I’m not dressed. He says—he came in, he got on a shirt and tie and coat—he says
“well, what can we do for you today?” I just look at him and I say, “I’m transgendered,
do you have a problem with that?” I said “I don’t know what you’re wearing under that
shirt, you may have on a negligee.” So, we spent an hour together. I go back to my inlaw’s house and he’s a minister, okay? And they start in. They start quoting bible
scriptures and how this is affecting this, and how that is affecting that. This goes on for
45 minutes. I didn’t say a word, just listened. Virginia wasn’t there, it was her alter ego.
And they finished they said [laughter]—my mother in law was kind of the matriarch, she
ran everything. She actually looked at me and said “you got anything to say?” I said
	&#13;  

18	&#13;  

�“yeah,” “Well?” I said, “I need to ask you just one question.” I said “I’ve been married to
your daughter for 26 years… “Yeah, so what?” I said “every Halloween, from day one,
every Halloween,” and I pointed at my father-in-law, I said “what is he dressed up as?”
Her eyes just like came right out of her head. He dresses up as a woman, full makeup,
lipstick, purse, the dresses, the heels, everything. Goes to church like that, okay? for
Halloween parties. And she says—and he’s just [laughter] sitting in his chair as she says,
she’s pounding the table—“but that’s only once a year.” I looked her straight in the eyes
and said “how many times does it take?” Never heard another word about it from them
from then on. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
65:52 Alexis: Did you ever have a discussion with them about….	&#13;  
	&#13;  
65:56 Virginia: No…he died shortly thereafter of cancer. [pause] And I talked to her, my
deceased wife, a couple of times about it. She didn’t want to talk about it. How many
times does it take?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
66:27 Alexis: I have another question. What do you think the prejudice or discrimination
from cisgender [people], or lesbians, or gay people have against [the] transgender
community? Where do you think it comes from? 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
66:40 Virginia: I think it’s no different than the straight community. They don’t
understand it, they just don’t understand. I mean, I try… what in the few times it’s come
up in discussion… Walk around this library, you see any two people that look alike? the
same height, the same weight, same color hair? That’s outward. Why can’t those same
differences be inward? We’re all different. We come from different backgrounds.
Biology, right? What does the embryo start out as?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
67:23 Alexis: Female.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
67:24 Virginia: Female. So who’s to say that during those nine months that something
doesn’t happen in there. Why do you got an IQ of 140 and I got an IQ of 80, and she’s
got an IQ of 170. We’re all different. And our ability to react to things and see things, but
yet a guy in a dress, “no, I can’t accept that, we got to go beat that person up or kill them”
or whatever. It’s just sad. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
68:00 Alexis: What would you say is your overall experience, like have you been
affected by discrimination in this area?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
68:10 Virginia: No, I haven’t. Because when Virginia goes out, that’s who people see.
They see a woman doing what women do. Shopping, eating out, going to concerts,
movies, just... The mind sees what it wants to see, I mean you if you’re standing on the
corner and you look down the street and you see a good looking guy, you see a guy. It’s
the same thing if a person’s standing on the corner and sees a woman, me, he sees a
woman. Now, needless to say there are those—again, you get back into my universe
	&#13;  

19	&#13;  

�where there is a problem with definitions. And I’ve got my own opinions. They aren’t
carved in stone because this whole thing is so fluid. To me there is a difference between a
cross dresser and somebody that’s transgender. Transgender is emotional, internal. Cross
dressers, it’s some type of sexual release that they put this stuff on and they have their
thing and they’re done. And they might not do it again for another week, month, year,
you’re the only who knows. And then you get, like you said, cisgender, transsexual. The
terminology just goes on and on. It’s not like “you’re gay or you’re a lesbian,” it’s just a
totally different universe. Me, as I told you upfront, mine’s a need to know. Okay, my
doctor doesn’t know I’m transgender. Why should I tell him? What difference does it
make? Trish on the other hand, she’s told her doctor she’s transgender. The doctor said
it’s great, they don’t care. I don’t want to drag this out…	&#13;  
	&#13;  
70:14 Alexis: Oh no, not at all.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
70:20 Virginia: [showing photograph?] That’s my alter ego. He was the first person in
the United States to bench-press over 400 lbs in his age and weight category. He’s won
seven world powerlifting titles. Not Virginia, not in the United States, world. And that’s
where the balance comes in. Virginia supports him 110%, but it’s him doing it not
Virginia. When Virginia is in this room that’s Virginia. He is kind of her protector. That’s
where I’m coming from. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
71:21 Alexis: So, how often, let’s just say, within a given week are you either Virginia or
your alter ego? 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
71:32 Virginia: There’s no… the balance is there. I mean, Virginia might be three or four
times a week. Go out to eat, just get dressed and walk around the house, you know
whatever she wants to do. Right now, he’s training for a meet March 12th down in
Gatlinburg [Tennessee]. That’s four days a week, but that’s only like three hours a day.
The rest of the time it just took early retirement because I could take early retirement and
I just do whatever I want to do. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
72:03 Alexis: So you see there is enough fluid transition between… 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
72:06 Virginia: Oh yeah. They totally support each other. That’s what everybody in my
universe should seek. And that’s where, like I said, most of them never find it and that’s
why you run into the problems. Suicides, and murders, and everything else, it’s just sad.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
72:31 Alexis: Do you believe that transgender people, like you were saying before, how
they have their… how they believe that they’re she, but then they are trying to suppress
their alter egos. Is that what you’re saying? I’m just trying to understand. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
72:47 Virginia: They don’t understand it. They wake up one day and say “oh, I’ve just
got to put on a dress. I just, I got to do it. I got to put on my wig and stuff.” They look in
the mirror and they see who they see. I call it Virginia’s challenge and I’ve told several of
	&#13;  

20	&#13;  

�them to do it. And, you got to get dressed, fully dressed, makeup, everything. Then
totally quiet, nothing around, no noise. No background music, nothing. You’ve got to
stand in front of a full-length mirror and if you’re not ready to do this, don’t do it.
Because it’ll screw you up if don’t. You stand in front of that mirror and you look at that
person in the mirror and you do not, you do not, look at how pretty she is. Her make-up,
her lipstick, if it matches her dress or nail polish. I say, you look at her eyes. You look
into her soul. What do you see? Then you have to ask yourself, what are you willing to
give up or do for that person. I say don’t do it if you’re not ready. Because if you’re ready
you’ll find the answer. Are you willing to do this and go to your spouse and say, “I’m
transgendered, deal with it.” Or are you going to continue to hide and hope you don’t get
caught. Sneak around in the shadows, so to speak. [showing a photograph] Let me show
you real quick. This is us, this is us in Las Vegas. We had a commitment ceremony. That
was so cool. We got a dress like that, the limousine pulls up in front of the hotel, we go
out and get in the limousine, go to this chapel. That was our wedding party. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
75:06 Alexis: Wow.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
75:10 Virginia: It’s all real. [laughter] Again, I’ll tell you straight, I’m going to do my
thing. And, that’s who I am. I’m sorry that Trish and I could make some big end roads in
this area, but there is only the one organization and I am not going to corrupt it from what
it is. If we are asked or if the current administration decides to leave and they want us to
come back and join. More than happy to. But, at this juncture, no. And I haven’t looked
at these things in a while. There was a picture. You all can tell me, if I can find it.
[Flipping through pages] It was a picture taken at Roanoke Pride [the Pride in the Park
festival] one summer. That party was… it sounds like I’m bragging I don’t want to tell
you.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
76:34 Alexis: What?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
76:36 Virginia: Here it is. These two wives came up to me. She says “you know, we’ve
been talking about you.” “Oh really?” She says “yes,” these are her exact words, “we’ve
decided that its bitches like you that make us have to work so hard to look good.”
[looking at another photograph] There’s my friend that had the transition. That’s her,
that’s me, at the dinner/dance. Alright, I don’t know if that’s a picture that they would
want.4 But you know who that is. That’s Trish. This girl is in a mental institution in
California. Her girlfriend is right here, they used to come to a lot of our meetings, she’s
deceased. Her parents won’t say what she died from, but they were both teachers,
instructors at Virginia Tech. This one just, she left her job and moved to California, and
she was what do you call it….couch hopping. Where you just call somebody up and say
“I don’t have a place to stay, can I sleep on your couch?” And she’d stay as long as
they’d let her and then she would move on to the next one. And last we heard she’s in a
mental institution. I don’t know if you met her [pointing to someone else], you know her?
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
4	&#13;  She	&#13;  is	&#13;  referring	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  LGBTQ	&#13;  History	&#13;  Collection,	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  Room,	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  Public	&#13;  Library.	&#13;  
21	&#13;  
	&#13;  

�Okay good, this one needs to be in a mental institution, some people say, but we won’t
[laughter]. Now, as far as signing a release from that, would you…? I mean, she’s no
problem, Trish is no problem, I’m no problem. The other two, one’s deceased and the
other is in a mental institution, so you’re not going to get their signatures. But, this was
the picture from Pride in the Park and the Ladies of the Blue Ridge organization. Do you
think they want that picture? [Alexis: Yes, of course] That was me at that Christmas
Party….. “bitches like you make us have to work hard to look good…” [chuckles] That
girl is deceased. Here, y’all do what you want.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
79:25 Alexis: Do you have any lasting words before we end this interview session?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
79:31 Virginia: I just hope I didn’t waste your time and I hope I didn’t take up too much
of it. And I wish you girls the best in your future endeavors and I appreciate you having
the intestinal fortitude to do this. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
79:49 Alexis: Thank you so much for taking your time out to let us interview you. 	&#13;  
	&#13;  
79:53 Virginia: I enjoyed and I hope I didn’t bore you [Alexis: Not at all] or scare you.
There are other things about me that probably would.

it’s	&#13;  densely	&#13;  populated.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people,	&#13;  neighbors	&#13;  right	&#13;  next	&#13;  to	&#13;  you.	&#13;  The	&#13;  population	&#13;  density	&#13;

thought	&#13;  about	&#13;  Florida,	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  Virginia.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  
experience	&#13;  in	&#13;  both	&#13;  places.	&#13;  I	&#13;  attended	&#13;  high	&#13;  schools	&#13;  in	&#13;  both	&#13;  places.	&#13;  Growing	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  Florida	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  younger	&#13;  
child,	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  outside	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  In	&#13;  those	&#13;  day	&#13;  parents	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  as	&#13;  concerned	&#13;  about	&#13;  someone	&#13;  
stealing	&#13;  you,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  on	&#13;  my	&#13;  bike	&#13;  outside	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  someone	&#13;  from	&#13;  our	&#13;  local	&#13;  rec,	&#13;  community	&#13;  rec	&#13;  
[recreation]	&#13;  program	&#13;  would	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  us	&#13;  and	&#13;  our	&#13;  neighborhood	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  play	&#13;  football,	&#13;  and	&#13;  have	&#13;  
outdoor	&#13;  games.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  much	&#13;  outside	&#13;  my	&#13;  whole	&#13;  childhood	&#13;  really.	&#13;  
1.40	&#13;  KA-­‐	&#13;  So	&#13;  then	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  like	&#13;  for	&#13;  you	&#13;  transiting	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd?	&#13;  
1.45	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  because	&#13;  the	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  community	&#13;  was	&#13;  much	&#13;  tighter	&#13;  and	&#13;  closer.	&#13;  When	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  
involved	&#13;  in	&#13;  athletics,	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  built-­‐in	&#13;  community.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  started,	&#13;  actually,	&#13;  becoming	&#13;  a	&#13;  real	&#13;  athlete,	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  organized	&#13;  sports,	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  8th	&#13;  grade.	&#13;  I	&#13;  loved	&#13;  that,	&#13;  I	&#13;  loved	&#13;  that	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  comradery.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  
some	&#13;  really	&#13;  good	&#13;  close	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  with	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  Academically	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  different,	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  
say	&#13;  the	&#13;  academics	&#13;  at	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  High	&#13;  School	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  great.	&#13;  The	&#13;  academics	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  school	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Florida	&#13;  were	&#13;  better,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  bigger	&#13;  school.	&#13;  They	&#13;  had	&#13;  advance	&#13;  placement	&#13;  classes.	&#13;  In	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘70s	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  
have	&#13;  any	&#13;  of	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  a	&#13;  stronger	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County,	&#13;  but	&#13;  the	&#13;  academics	&#13;  
weren’t	&#13;  as	&#13;  good.	&#13;  	&#13;  
2.41	&#13;  KA-­‐	&#13;  Great,	&#13;  so	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  like	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  an	&#13;  all-­‐girls	&#13;  college	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia?	&#13;  What	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  like?	&#13;  

	&#13;  

2	&#13;  

�2.48	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  Unbelievably	&#13;  fantastic!	&#13;  I	&#13;  hadn’t	&#13;  intended	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that,	&#13;  actually	&#13;  my	&#13;  plan	&#13;  was	&#13;  to	&#13;  attend	&#13;  the	&#13;  
University	&#13;  of	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  basketball	&#13;  scholarship.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  actually	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  good	&#13;  basketball	&#13;  player,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  
had	&#13;  been	&#13;  recruited	&#13;  by	&#13;  them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  still	&#13;  an	&#13;  out-­‐of-­‐state	&#13;  student.	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  forth	&#13;  from	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Florida	&#13;  during	&#13;  my	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  years	&#13;  for	&#13;  reasons	&#13;  we	&#13;  may	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  or	&#13;  we	&#13;  may	&#13;  not.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  ended	&#13;  up	&#13;  having	&#13;  
a	&#13;  motorcycle	&#13;  accident	&#13;  the	&#13;  summer	&#13;  before	&#13;  my	&#13;  senior	&#13;  year	&#13;  of	&#13;  high	&#13;  school,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  completely	&#13;  derailed	&#13;  any	&#13;  
athletic	&#13;  career	&#13;  I	&#13;  had.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  put	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  hopes	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  University	&#13;  of	&#13;  Virginia,	&#13;  and	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  gone	&#13;  there,	&#13;  
had	&#13;  I	&#13;  not	&#13;  had	&#13;  my	&#13;  accident.	&#13;  But	&#13;  when	&#13;  that	&#13;  happened	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  no	&#13;  longer	&#13;  interested	&#13;  of	&#13;  course.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  
out-­‐of-­‐state	&#13;  student,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  priority	&#13;  status	&#13;  as	&#13;  an	&#13;  athlete.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  get	&#13;  in.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  completely	&#13;  
surprised	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  great	&#13;  grades,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  standardize	&#13;  test	&#13;  well.	&#13;  So	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  time	&#13;  the	&#13;  
University	&#13;  of	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  said	&#13;  no	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  Mary	&#13;  Baldwin	&#13;  College,	&#13;  believe	&#13;  it	&#13;  or	&#13;  not,	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  Florida	&#13;  recruiting	&#13;  and	&#13;  
I	&#13;  went	&#13;  there	&#13;  sight	&#13;  unseen	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  loved	&#13;  it!	&#13;  For	&#13;  me,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  felt	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  place	&#13;  anyway	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian,	&#13;  I	&#13;  
never	&#13;  considered	&#13;  a	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  college,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  gift	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  when	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  women,	&#13;  the	&#13;  women	&#13;  
are	&#13;  the	&#13;  ones	&#13;  who	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  leaders,	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  the	&#13;  ones	&#13;  that	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  take	&#13;  ownership	&#13;  of	&#13;  what’s	&#13;  
happening	&#13;  on	&#13;  campus,	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  competition	&#13;  with	&#13;  guys.	&#13;  Which	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  good	&#13;  for	&#13;  me,	&#13;  because	&#13;  
I	&#13;  really	&#13;  needed	&#13;  that	&#13;  spark	&#13;  of	&#13;  encouragement.	&#13;  In	&#13;  terms	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  sexuality	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  felt	&#13;  very	&#13;  
much	&#13;  like	&#13;  an	&#13;  outsider,	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  gone	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  co-­‐educational	&#13;  school	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  Totally	&#13;  different	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  now	&#13;  
in	&#13;  my	&#13;  life	&#13;  but	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  really	&#13;  felt	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  belong.	&#13;  	&#13;  
4.48	&#13;  KA-­‐	&#13;  Wow!	&#13;  So	&#13;  then	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  University	&#13;  of	&#13;  Richmond	&#13;  after	&#13;  Mary	&#13;  Baldwin	&#13;  for	&#13;  your	&#13;  law	&#13;  degree.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
was	&#13;  that	&#13;  different	&#13;  from	&#13;  Mary	&#13;  Baldwin?	&#13;  
5.00	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  Oh	&#13;  yea!	&#13;  Very	&#13;  different,	&#13;  I	&#13;  hated	&#13;  it.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  co-­‐educational—besides	&#13;  from	&#13;  high	&#13;  
school	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  first	&#13;  co-­‐educational	&#13;  experience.	&#13;  That	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  fine,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  an	&#13;  extremely	&#13;  
competitive	&#13;  atmosphere,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  became	&#13;  a	&#13;  lawyer	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  help	&#13;  people,	&#13;  or	&#13;  at	&#13;  
least	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  law	&#13;  school	&#13;  with	&#13;  that	&#13;  idea	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  help	&#13;  people.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  how.	&#13;  And	&#13;  nothing	&#13;  
about	&#13;  law	&#13;  school	&#13;  was	&#13;  about	&#13;  helping	&#13;  people.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  about	&#13;  creating	&#13;  that	&#13;  litigious	&#13;  brain,	&#13;  of	&#13;  how	&#13;  you	&#13;  
can	&#13;  argue	&#13;  both	&#13;  sides.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  really,	&#13;  really	&#13;  challenging,	&#13;  humiliating	&#13;  actually	&#13;  in	&#13;  some	&#13;  respects.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  
it	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  competitive	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  significant	&#13;  crisis	&#13;  of	&#13;  identity,	&#13;  like	&#13;  “why	&#13;  did	&#13;  
I	&#13;  do	&#13;  this?	&#13;  This	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  I	&#13;  mind	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.”	&#13;  The	&#13;  school	&#13;  itself	&#13;  was	&#13;  lovely,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  made	&#13;  some	&#13;  great	&#13;  friends	&#13;  
and	&#13;  really	&#13;  good	&#13;  people.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  academic	&#13;  atmosphere	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  
6.05	&#13;  KA-­‐	&#13;  So,	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  openly	&#13;  gay	&#13;  judge	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia.	&#13;  What	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  like	&#13;  for	&#13;  you?	&#13;  
6.15	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  challenging,	&#13;  actually,	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  beginning.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  openly	&#13;  gay	&#13;  my	&#13;  whole	&#13;  career,	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  
I	&#13;  decided,	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  young,	&#13;  I	&#13;  decided	&#13;  to	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  become	&#13;  a	&#13;  judge.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  
office,	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  closing	&#13;  the	&#13;  door,	&#13;  and	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  “okay.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  open,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  my	&#13;  life,	&#13;  I	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  hide	&#13;  it,	&#13;  but	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  everyone	&#13;  is	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  did	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  weekend,	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  
really	&#13;  participate.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  really	&#13;  wanting	&#13;  to	&#13;  use	&#13;  gender.	&#13;  So	&#13;  people	&#13;  closest	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  knew,	&#13;  it	&#13;  
wasn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  secret,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  decided	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  become	&#13;  a	&#13;  judge	&#13;  
I	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  awareness	&#13;  that	&#13;  this	&#13;  could	&#13;  prevent	&#13;  me	&#13;  from	&#13;  doing	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  do,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  
whether	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  well	&#13;  known.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  scared,	&#13;  actually,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  through	&#13;  the	&#13;  process	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  time	&#13;  
when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  only	&#13;  thirty	&#13;  [years	&#13;  old].	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  selected	&#13;  to	&#13;  become	&#13;  a	&#13;  judge.	&#13;  It	&#13;  never	&#13;  came	&#13;  up,	&#13;  no	&#13;  one	&#13;  asked	&#13;  
me,	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  mentioned,	&#13;  and	&#13;  after	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  over	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  relieved.	&#13;  A	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  working	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  
very	&#13;  prominent	&#13;  senator	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time,	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  process,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Joyce,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  so	&#13;  relived,	&#13;  
it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  come	&#13;  up.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  she	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “it	&#13;  absolutely	&#13;  did	&#13;  come	&#13;  up!”	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  alright.”	&#13;  “It	&#13;  was	&#13;  discussed,	&#13;  
it	&#13;  was	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  table	&#13;  with	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  considering	&#13;  your	&#13;  appointment,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  the	&#13;  obstacle	&#13;  

	&#13;  

3	&#13;  

�that	&#13;  kept	&#13;  you	&#13;  from	&#13;  becoming	&#13;  a	&#13;  judge.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  felt	&#13;  really	&#13;  gratified	&#13;  by	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  prevent	&#13;  me	&#13;  from	&#13;  
becoming	&#13;  a	&#13;  judge.	&#13;  Sometimes	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  through	&#13;  the	&#13;  process	&#13;  a	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  times,	&#13;  before	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  
selected.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  selected	&#13;  at	&#13;  thirty-­‐four	&#13;  [years	&#13;  old],	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  no	&#13;  openly	&#13;  gay	&#13;  judges.	&#13;  	&#13;  
I	&#13;  was	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  judicial	&#13;  training.	&#13;  Shortly	&#13;  after	&#13;  I	&#13;  became	&#13;  a	&#13;  judge,	&#13;  believe	&#13;  it	&#13;  or	&#13;  not,	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  judges	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  at	&#13;  
my	&#13;  level,	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  general	&#13;  district	&#13;  level,	&#13;  hundreds	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  gathered	&#13;  together	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  conference	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  
required	&#13;  every	&#13;  year.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Supreme	&#13;  Court	&#13;  who	&#13;  trains	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  judges,	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  focus	&#13;  on	&#13;  diversity	&#13;  
education.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  hard	&#13;  thing	&#13;  to	&#13;  do.	&#13;  	&#13;  Most	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  judges	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  were	&#13;  white	&#13;  men,	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  this	&#13;  
big	&#13;  huge	&#13;  room,	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  grown-­‐up	&#13;  people	&#13;  playing	&#13;  diversity	&#13;  BINGO.	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  that	&#13;  is?	&#13;  So	&#13;  
you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  BINGO	&#13;  card,	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  each	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  squares	&#13;  it	&#13;  says	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  on	&#13;  public	&#13;  assistance,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  gay	&#13;  or	&#13;  
lesbian,	&#13;  I	&#13;  drive	&#13;  a	&#13;  red	&#13;  truck,	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  different	&#13;  identifiers,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  goal	&#13;  is	&#13;  to	&#13;  walk	&#13;  around	&#13;  the	&#13;  room,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
get	&#13;  BINGO.	&#13;  So	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  things	&#13;  was	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  gay.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  publicly	&#13;  said	&#13;  to	&#13;  someone	&#13;  “yea.”	&#13;  The	&#13;  
opportunities	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  there	&#13;  very	&#13;  often.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  nervous,	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  said	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  thing	&#13;  
about	&#13;  being	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  south.	&#13;  People	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  say	&#13;  much	&#13;  to	&#13;  your	&#13;  face.	&#13;  They	&#13;  are	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  polite	&#13;  and	&#13;  respectful,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  afterwords	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  dear	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine,	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  staff	&#13;  person	&#13;  and	&#13;  did	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  training	&#13;  for	&#13;  judges,	&#13;  was	&#13;  
telling	&#13;  her	&#13;  the	&#13;  story	&#13;  and	&#13;  really	&#13;  really	&#13;  unfortunately,	&#13;  her	&#13;  reaction	&#13;  was	&#13;  “Oh	&#13;  my	&#13;  god,	&#13;  you	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  do	&#13;  
that?”	&#13;  Instead	&#13;  of	&#13;  “way	&#13;  to	&#13;  go,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  so	&#13;  glad	&#13;  you	&#13;  took	&#13;  that	&#13;  step!”	&#13;  She	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  afraid	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  	&#13;  
I	&#13;  took	&#13;  my	&#13;  partners	&#13;  with	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  judicial	&#13;  conferences.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  keep	&#13;  people	&#13;  at	&#13;  home	&#13;  and	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  sight,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  really	&#13;  talked	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Mostly	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  lonely,	&#13;  because	&#13;  my	&#13;  colleagues	&#13;  were	&#13;  terrific.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
worked	&#13;  in	&#13;  Richmond,	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  five	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  bench,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  four	&#13;  now.	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  five	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  
bench	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  worked	&#13;  with	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  supportive,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  something	&#13;  that...	&#13;  There	&#13;  
wasn’t	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  else.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  single	&#13;  other	&#13;  openly	&#13;  gay	&#13;  judge	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  even	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  the	&#13;  loneliness.	&#13;  Frankly	&#13;  people	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  this,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  really	&#13;  lonely	&#13;  job.	&#13;  Actually	&#13;  because	&#13;  so	&#13;  
much	&#13;  of	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  is	&#13;  in	&#13;  isolation,	&#13;  by	&#13;  yourself,	&#13;  you	&#13;  make	&#13;  decisions	&#13;  alone.	&#13;  But	&#13;  worse	&#13;  than,	&#13;  the	&#13;  hardest	&#13;  
most	&#13;  isolating	&#13;  piece	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  just	&#13;  being	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian,	&#13;  having	&#13;  no	&#13;  other	&#13;  compatriots,	&#13;  but	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  being	&#13;  a	&#13;  
woman	&#13;  in	&#13;  man’s	&#13;  arena.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  completely	&#13;  a	&#13;  man’s	&#13;  arena	&#13;  then	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  resonate	&#13;  with	&#13;  me	&#13;  that	&#13;  
way.	&#13;  	&#13;  
12.00	&#13;  KA-­‐So	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  into	&#13;  awareness	&#13;  of	&#13;  your	&#13;  sexuality,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  still	&#13;  considered	&#13;  a	&#13;  mental	&#13;  disease.	&#13;  
12.07	&#13;  KO-­‐It	&#13;  was.	&#13;  	&#13;  
12.08	&#13;  KA-­‐So	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  tell	&#13;  your	&#13;  family	&#13;  and	&#13;  friends	&#13;  about	&#13;  this?	&#13;  
12.09	&#13;  KO-­‐No	&#13;  
12.10	&#13;  KA-­‐What	&#13;  was	&#13;  their	&#13;  reaction?	&#13;  
12.11	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  very	&#13;  interesting,	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  unusual	&#13;  experience	&#13;  of	&#13;  coming	&#13;  out,	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  did.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  there	&#13;  
was	&#13;  only	&#13;  one	&#13;  person	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  life,	&#13;  a	&#13;  male	&#13;  judge	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  colleague	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine,	&#13;  who	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  crush	&#13;  on	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
knew	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  him.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  say,	&#13;  but	&#13;  other	&#13;  than	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  ever	&#13;  had	&#13;  that	&#13;  experience.	&#13;  My	&#13;  
situation	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  different	&#13;  and	&#13;  traumatic	&#13;  in	&#13;  different	&#13;  ways.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  
or	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  word	&#13;  meant.	&#13;  My	&#13;  first	&#13;  relationship,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  even	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  word,	&#13;  my	&#13;  first	&#13;  experience	&#13;  with	&#13;  
a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  was	&#13;  actually	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  teacher.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  fucked	&#13;  up,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  the	&#13;  truth,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  fucked	&#13;  
up.	&#13;  This	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County,	&#13;  not	&#13;  my	&#13;  instigation	&#13;  at	&#13;  all,	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  happened	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  10th	&#13;  grade	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  
woman	&#13;  teacher.	&#13;  And	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  removed	&#13;  me	&#13;  from	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  High	&#13;  School.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  when	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  Florida.	&#13;  	&#13;  

	&#13;  

4	&#13;  

�My	&#13;  first	&#13;  even	&#13;  thought	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  came	&#13;  when	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  intercepted	&#13;  some	&#13;  communication	&#13;  between	&#13;  me	&#13;  
and	&#13;  this	&#13;  teacher,	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  stupid	&#13;  enough	&#13;  to	&#13;  send	&#13;  mail	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  home.	&#13;  And	&#13;  confronted	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “Are	&#13;  
you	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  “I	&#13;  have	&#13;  no	&#13;  idea,	&#13;  never	&#13;  even	&#13;  heard	&#13;  the	&#13;  word.”	&#13;  Don’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  it,	&#13;  to	&#13;  this	&#13;  day	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  
you	&#13;  the	&#13;  truth,	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  experience,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  “no.”	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  a	&#13;  
“yes”	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  give	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  respond.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  traumatic,	&#13;  really	&#13;  traumatic	&#13;  and	&#13;  
my	&#13;  parents,	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  was	&#13;  freaked	&#13;  out.	&#13;  She	&#13;  had	&#13;  no	&#13;  idea	&#13;  what	&#13;  to	&#13;  do.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  sent	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  psychiatrist	&#13;  who	&#13;  
was	&#13;  doing	&#13;  his	&#13;  job	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  mental	&#13;  illness	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  go	&#13;  very	&#13;  often,	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  many	&#13;  times.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  
not	&#13;  helpful	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  very	&#13;  fortunate,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  few	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  who	&#13;  for	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  reason,	&#13;  I	&#13;  
personally	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  guilt	&#13;  and	&#13;  shame	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  the	&#13;  rest	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  was	&#13;  uncomfortable.	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  
my	&#13;  parents	&#13;  were	&#13;  ashamed,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  felt	&#13;  like	&#13;  something	&#13;  was	&#13;  wrong	&#13;  with	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  know	&#13;  where	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  
talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  where	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t.	&#13;  Then	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  High	&#13;  School….	&#13;  Still,	&#13;  forty	&#13;  years	&#13;  later,	&#13;  
I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  word	&#13;  to	&#13;  accurately	&#13;  say	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  was.	&#13;  They	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  relationships…	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  molested,	&#13;  
accosted,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know,	&#13;  by	&#13;  another	&#13;  teacher,	&#13;  another	&#13;  female	&#13;  teacher.	&#13;  So	&#13;  twice	&#13;  that	&#13;  happened	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  
was	&#13;  immediately	&#13;  moved	&#13;  from	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  High	&#13;  School	&#13;  then.	&#13;  	&#13;  
So	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  really	&#13;  weird	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  around	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  come	&#13;  out,	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  told	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
know	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  true	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  took	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  years.	&#13;  And	&#13;  probably	&#13;  being	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  safe	&#13;  college	&#13;  environment.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  schools	&#13;  probably	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  any	&#13;  more	&#13;  lesbians	&#13;  that	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  else.	&#13;  But	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  some.	&#13;  I	&#13;  felt	&#13;  
like	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  completely	&#13;  alone.	&#13;  But	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  strange.	&#13;  Traumatic.	&#13;  Very	&#13;  difficult.	&#13;  Not	&#13;  many	&#13;  people	&#13;  know	&#13;  this	&#13;  
story,	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  much	&#13;  isolation	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  tell	&#13;  anybody.	&#13;  Who	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  tell	&#13;  about	&#13;  that?	&#13;  So	&#13;  
the	&#13;  only	&#13;  hesitancy	&#13;  I	&#13;  had,	&#13;  I	&#13;  almost	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  put	&#13;  my	&#13;  name	&#13;  [for	&#13;  this	&#13;  oral	&#13;  history	&#13;  recording],	&#13;  but	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  carried	&#13;  
this	&#13;  secret	&#13;  for	&#13;  long	&#13;  enough.	&#13;  What	&#13;  if	&#13;  someone	&#13;  reads	&#13;  this	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  know	&#13;  who	&#13;  these	&#13;  people	&#13;  were?	&#13;  In	&#13;  this	&#13;  
day	&#13;  and	&#13;  age	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  done	&#13;  to	&#13;  jail.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  protect	&#13;  them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  name	&#13;  the	&#13;  names,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  protect	&#13;  them	&#13;  either.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  yeah,	&#13;  different.	&#13;  But	&#13;  it	&#13;  saved	&#13;  me	&#13;  from	&#13;  having	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  that	&#13;  
“mom,	&#13;  dad,	&#13;  guess	&#13;  what?”	&#13;  Didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  
17.02	&#13;  KA-­‐That’s	&#13;  crazy.	&#13;  	&#13;  
17.03	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  crazy,	&#13;  two	&#13;  teachers,	&#13;  what	&#13;  is	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  water	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County?	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  serious,	&#13;  like	&#13;  really?	&#13;  But	&#13;  at	&#13;  
that	&#13;  age	&#13;  the	&#13;  thing	&#13;  that	&#13;  screws	&#13;  you	&#13;  up	&#13;  is—and	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  thing	&#13;  about	&#13;  power	&#13;  dynamics	&#13;  and	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  
that	&#13;  are	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  balance	&#13;  like	&#13;  that,	&#13;  especially	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  age,	&#13;  your	&#13;  formative	&#13;  experiences	&#13;  with	&#13;  sexuality—but	&#13;  it	&#13;  
really	&#13;  messes	&#13;  up	&#13;  your…	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  realize	&#13;  how	&#13;  it	&#13;  messed	&#13;  me	&#13;  up	&#13;  because	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  this	&#13;  sense	&#13;  that	&#13;  
you’re	&#13;  special,	&#13;  right?	&#13;  Your	&#13;  teacher	&#13;  likes	&#13;  you	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  weird	&#13;  thing	&#13;  that	&#13;  happens	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  
nothing	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  normal	&#13;  or	&#13;  right.	&#13;  But	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  experience	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to.	&#13;  My	&#13;  
parents	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  sympathetic,	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  not.	&#13;  My	&#13;  mother	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  capacity	&#13;  emotionally	&#13;  to	&#13;  
comfort	&#13;  me.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  who	&#13;  said	&#13;  “wow,	&#13;  this	&#13;  sucks,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  your	&#13;  fault,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  it	&#13;  
is	&#13;  supposed	&#13;  to	&#13;  be,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  is.”	&#13;  If	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  had	&#13;  an	&#13;  intervention,	&#13;  a	&#13;  caring	&#13;  parent,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  
in	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  time,	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  support	&#13;  me.	&#13;  It	&#13;  might	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  different.	&#13;  It	&#13;  might	&#13;  not	&#13;  have	&#13;  messed	&#13;  
up	&#13;  my	&#13;  interpersonal	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  so	&#13;  much,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  it	&#13;  was.	&#13;  	&#13;  
18.24	&#13;  KA-­‐So	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  between	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  and	&#13;  Florida,	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  notice	&#13;  a	&#13;  difference?	&#13;  Was	&#13;  there	&#13;  a	&#13;  
dichotomy	&#13;  between	&#13;  the	&#13;  two	&#13;  places?	&#13;  
18.33	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  In	&#13;  what	&#13;  ways?	&#13;  In	&#13;  terms	&#13;  of	&#13;  sexuality	&#13;  or	&#13;  the	&#13;  acceptance	&#13;  or	&#13;  the…?	&#13;  
18.41	&#13;  KA-­‐I	&#13;  would	&#13;  say	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  of	&#13;  both	&#13;  the	&#13;  acceptance	&#13;  and	&#13;  sexuality,	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  
was	&#13;  a	&#13;  difference	&#13;  between	&#13;  the	&#13;  two	&#13;  or	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  really	&#13;  just…	&#13;  ?	&#13;  

	&#13;

�19.48	&#13;  KO-­‐Not	&#13;  so	&#13;  much.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  time.	&#13;  Nobody	&#13;  talked	&#13;  about	&#13;  homosexuality.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  
know	&#13;  really	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  and	&#13;  how	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  were	&#13;  like	&#13;  you?	&#13;  At	&#13;  that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  girls	&#13;  
were	&#13;  certainly	&#13;  very	&#13;  boyish	&#13;  and	&#13;  tomboyish.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  confusing	&#13;  that	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  you	&#13;  felt	&#13;  more	&#13;  comfortable	&#13;  
dressing	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  certain	&#13;  way,	&#13;  so	&#13;  you	&#13;  identified	&#13;  people	&#13;  by	&#13;  their…	&#13;  girls	&#13;  that	&#13;  were	&#13;  more	&#13;  masculine,	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“Oh	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  likes	&#13;  me.”	&#13;  But	&#13;  there	&#13;  really	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  much	&#13;  acceptance	&#13;  for	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  all.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  
was	&#13;  aware	&#13;  and	&#13;  had	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  an	&#13;  antenna	&#13;  on	&#13;  and	&#13;  every	&#13;  friendship	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  scrutinized.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  
my	&#13;  best	&#13;  friends	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  in	&#13;  Florida,	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  also	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian,	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  with	&#13;  her,	&#13;  we	&#13;  
were	&#13;  just	&#13;  really	&#13;  friends.	&#13;  When	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  friends,	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  forbidden	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  
any	&#13;  contact	&#13;  at	&#13;  our	&#13;  high	&#13;  school.	&#13;  Our	&#13;  teachers	&#13;  would	&#13;  watch.	&#13;  That	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  happen	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  But	&#13;  there	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
accosted	&#13;  by	&#13;  two	&#13;  teachers.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  something	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  discussed	&#13;  or	&#13;  talked	&#13;  about.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  
underground.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  school,	&#13;  in	&#13;  fact,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  older	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  connected	&#13;  with.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
the	&#13;  teachers	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  were	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  way.	&#13;  In	&#13;  Florida	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  found	&#13;  each	&#13;  other	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  
older	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  would	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you	&#13;  where	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bars	&#13;  that	&#13;  never	&#13;  checked	&#13;  IDs	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  
could	&#13;  go.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  seedy,	&#13;  shady,	&#13;  dark	&#13;  places,	&#13;  but	&#13;  at	&#13;  least	&#13;  you	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  alone.	&#13;  So	&#13;  both	&#13;  places	&#13;  there	&#13;  
wasn’t	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  culture	&#13;  here	&#13;  [in	&#13;  Floyd].	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  in	&#13;  Florida,	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bars,	&#13;  
mostly	&#13;  the	&#13;  nicer	&#13;  ones	&#13;  were	&#13;  always	&#13;  for	&#13;  men.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  access	&#13;  to	&#13;  more	&#13;  things	&#13;  outside	&#13;  the	&#13;  mainstream	&#13;  
than	&#13;  you	&#13;  did	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  They	&#13;  still	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  [in	&#13;  Floyd].	&#13;  Jim’s	&#13;  making	&#13;  them	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  it,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  
something	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  comfortable	&#13;  with	&#13;  even	&#13;  today.1	&#13;  
21.24	&#13;  KA-­‐So	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  getting	&#13;  married	&#13;  soon,	&#13;  congratulations.	&#13;  So	&#13;  in	&#13;  2015	&#13;  the	&#13;  marriage	&#13;  equality	&#13;  
decision	&#13;  was	&#13;  reached	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  Supreme	&#13;  Court,	&#13;  a	&#13;  huge	&#13;  win	&#13;  for	&#13;  gay	&#13;  rights.	&#13;  So	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  your	&#13;  reaction	&#13;  to	&#13;  
this?	&#13;  
21.37	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  Shock!	&#13;  Shock.	&#13;  Never	&#13;  expected	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  happen	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  lifetime,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  interesting.	&#13;  You	&#13;  
know	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  not	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  possibility,	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  radar	&#13;  screen.	&#13;  I	&#13;  assumed	&#13;  
because	&#13;  we	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  it,	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  benefits	&#13;  to	&#13;  it.	&#13;  When	&#13;  it	&#13;  became	&#13;  possible	&#13;  for	&#13;  us	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  
married—my	&#13;  partner	&#13;  Anita	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  together	&#13;  for	&#13;  ten	&#13;  years—I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  an	&#13;  automatic	&#13;  
like	&#13;  “of	&#13;  course	&#13;  we	&#13;  will	&#13;  do	&#13;  this.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  no	&#13;  question	&#13;  about	&#13;  us	&#13;  being	&#13;  committed.”	&#13;  Then	&#13;  it	&#13;  turned	&#13;  into	&#13;  this	&#13;  
really	&#13;  different	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  conversation	&#13;  of	&#13;  “Okay,	&#13;  what	&#13;  are	&#13;  the	&#13;  pros	&#13;  and	&#13;  cons?”	&#13;  Just	&#13;  because	&#13;  we	&#13;  can	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  
mean	&#13;  we	&#13;  should,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  realized	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  some	&#13;  negatives	&#13;  to	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Then	&#13;  it	&#13;  turned	&#13;  into	&#13;  more	&#13;  
of	&#13;  a	&#13;  financial	&#13;  conversation.	&#13;  Which	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  hated.	&#13;  I	&#13;  did.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  financial	&#13;  decision.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  
wonderful,	&#13;  everyone	&#13;  should	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  mean	&#13;  that	&#13;  everyone	&#13;  should	&#13;  or	&#13;  will	&#13;  
want	&#13;  to.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  marriage,	&#13;  all	&#13;  people	&#13;  are	&#13;  getting	&#13;  married	&#13;  less	&#13;  I	&#13;  think.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  also	&#13;  seen	&#13;  how	&#13;  different	&#13;  it	&#13;  is.	&#13;  It	&#13;  
is	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  commitment.	&#13;  It	&#13;  feels	&#13;  really	&#13;  different	&#13;  to	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  thrilled	&#13;  that	&#13;  people	&#13;  have	&#13;  that	&#13;  
choice,	&#13;  and	&#13;  really	&#13;  excited.	&#13;  
23.08	&#13;  KA-­‐Great.	&#13;  So	&#13;  now	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  currently	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  are	&#13;  working	&#13;  with	&#13;  another	&#13;  partner	&#13;  of	&#13;  
yours	&#13;  [there	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd],	&#13;  Jim	&#13;  Best.	&#13;  He	&#13;  is	&#13;  working	&#13;  to	&#13;  bring	&#13;  the	&#13;  conversation	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  about	&#13;  LGBTQ+	&#13;  
relationships.	&#13;  So	&#13;  what	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  movement	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd?	&#13;  
23.32	&#13;  KO-­‐Yea,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  amazing.	&#13;  Jim	&#13;  is	&#13;  carrying	&#13;  on	&#13;  work	&#13;  that	&#13;  other	&#13;  people	&#13;  started.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Floyd,	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  some	&#13;  fear	&#13;  about	&#13;  coming	&#13;  back.	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  care	&#13;  for	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother.	&#13;  In	&#13;  2007,	&#13;  I	&#13;  quit	&#13;  my	&#13;  job	&#13;  and	&#13;  
came	&#13;  home	&#13;  to	&#13;  care	&#13;  for	&#13;  her.	&#13;  Most	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  Richmond	&#13;  were	&#13;  like	&#13;  “what	&#13;  the…	&#13;  ?	&#13;  what	&#13;  are	&#13;  you	&#13;  doing,	&#13;  
are	&#13;  you	&#13;  kidding?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  vibrate	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  friends,	&#13;  and	&#13;  gay	&#13;  and	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  people,	&#13;  in	&#13;  Richmond.	&#13;  Most	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

�friends,	&#13;  my	&#13;  close	&#13;  friends	&#13;  were	&#13;  women.	&#13;  They	&#13;  thought	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  insane,	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  this	&#13;  place	&#13;  where	&#13;  typically	&#13;  you	&#13;  
would	&#13;  think	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  much	&#13;  acceptance.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  fear	&#13;  of	&#13;  coming	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  see.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
healing	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  do.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  the	&#13;  things	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  dealt	&#13;  with	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  kid.	&#13;  Very	&#13;  shortly	&#13;  after	&#13;  coming	&#13;  back,	&#13;  
maybe	&#13;  within	&#13;  a	&#13;  year,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  friends—not	&#13;  Jim—who	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  start	&#13;  a	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  chapter.	&#13;  
So	&#13;  we	&#13;  started	&#13;  the	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  chapter.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  named	&#13;  Dianne	&#13;  Jackson	&#13;  who	&#13;  
started	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  Diversity	&#13;  Club	&#13;  at	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  High	&#13;  School.	&#13;  She	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  main	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  
started	&#13;  the	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  group.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  astounding	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  this	&#13;  was	&#13;  happening	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  To	&#13;  be	&#13;  
honest	&#13;  with	&#13;  you,	&#13;  because	&#13;  my	&#13;  life	&#13;  has	&#13;  changed	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  sense	&#13;  then,	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  from	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  cautiously	&#13;  being	&#13;  
open,	&#13;  to	&#13;  being	&#13;  wide	&#13;  open	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  left	&#13;  Richmond.	&#13;  For	&#13;  a	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  years	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  partner	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  
very	&#13;  open	&#13;  and	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  child.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘90s	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  entered	&#13;  into	&#13;  that	&#13;  relationship,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  
first	&#13;  experience	&#13;  with	&#13;  having	&#13;  a	&#13;  child	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  family,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  changed	&#13;  everything	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  She	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  proud	&#13;  
and	&#13;  happy.	&#13;  Very	&#13;  open,	&#13;  telling	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  including	&#13;  her	&#13;  mom	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  with	&#13;  me.	&#13;  And	&#13;  
there	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  way	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  anything	&#13;  but	&#13;  100	&#13;  percent.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  great.	&#13;  Fantastic.	&#13;  It	&#13;  changed	&#13;  my	&#13;  
life.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  when	&#13;  everything	&#13;  became	&#13;  completely	&#13;  open	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  how	&#13;  critical	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  
there	&#13;  be	&#13;  people	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  neighbors	&#13;  into	&#13;  our	&#13;  house	&#13;  for	&#13;  monthly	&#13;  potlucks.	&#13;  
These	&#13;  were	&#13;  older	&#13;  women	&#13;  who	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  think	&#13;  they	&#13;  ever	&#13;  knew	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  person.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  open	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
think	&#13;  it	&#13;  really	&#13;  changed	&#13;  how	&#13;  they	&#13;  viewed	&#13;  things.	&#13;  	&#13;  
When	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd,	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  say,	&#13;  the	&#13;  movement	&#13;  has	&#13;  not	&#13;  been	&#13;  my	&#13;  passion.	&#13;  Being	&#13;  open	&#13;  and	&#13;  
demonstrating	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  I	&#13;  live	&#13;  my	&#13;  life,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  what	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  person	&#13;  looks	&#13;  like,	&#13;  take	&#13;  it	&#13;  or	&#13;  leave	&#13;  it!	&#13;  When	&#13;  that	&#13;  
PFLAG	&#13;  group	&#13;  started,	&#13;  there	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  initial	&#13;  group	&#13;  that	&#13;  felt	&#13;  a	&#13;  calling	&#13;  like	&#13;  Jim	&#13;  does.	&#13;  A	&#13;  calling	&#13;  
to	&#13;  be	&#13;  visible	&#13;  and	&#13;  vocal.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  there,	&#13;  done	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  open	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  
every	&#13;  place	&#13;  I	&#13;  went,	&#13;  “this	&#13;  is	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  am,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  my	&#13;  partner.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  feel	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  an	&#13;  advocate	&#13;  in	&#13;  
that	&#13;  way.	&#13;  So	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  was	&#13;  about	&#13;  to	&#13;  fold	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  until	&#13;  Jim	&#13;  came	&#13;  along.	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  taken	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  another	&#13;  level.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
I	&#13;  mean,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  fearless.	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  messenger.	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  got	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  package.	&#13;  He	&#13;  grew	&#13;  up	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  
Mormon,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  graceful,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  attractive,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  articulate,	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  intelligent.	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  great	&#13;  conversationalist.	&#13;  
He’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  been	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  person	&#13;  to	&#13;  carry	&#13;  the	&#13;  message.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  really	&#13;  grateful	&#13;  to	&#13;  him	&#13;  because	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  courageous	&#13;  
of	&#13;  him.	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  attend.	&#13;  Quakers	&#13;  do	&#13;  things	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  beautiful	&#13;  way.	&#13;  Jim	&#13;  
was	&#13;  feeling	&#13;  like	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  leading.	&#13;  This	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  spiritual	&#13;  thing	&#13;  for	&#13;  him.	&#13;  A	&#13;  leading	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  working	&#13;  first	&#13;  with	&#13;  
religious	&#13;  communities	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd,	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  wanting	&#13;  to	&#13;  educate	&#13;  them.	&#13;  Open	&#13;  their	&#13;  minds	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  his	&#13;  
real	&#13;  deep	&#13;  concern	&#13;  for	&#13;  kids.	&#13;  Our	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  is	&#13;  supporting	&#13;  that	&#13;  leading.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  support	&#13;  group	&#13;  for	&#13;  Jim,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  that.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  things	&#13;  we	&#13;  commit	&#13;  to	&#13;  is	&#13;  offering	&#13;  companionship.	&#13;  Being	&#13;  with	&#13;  him	&#13;  as	&#13;  he	&#13;  
does	&#13;  his	&#13;  mission.	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  with	&#13;  him	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  Seventh-­‐Day	&#13;  Adventist	&#13;  church	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  blown	&#13;  away	&#13;  at	&#13;  
how	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  present	&#13;  himself,	&#13;  and	&#13;  connect,	&#13;  and	&#13;  finding	&#13;  commonality	&#13;  and	&#13;  common	&#13;  ground.	&#13;  He’s	&#13;  
really	&#13;  changing	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  there.	&#13;  	&#13;  
It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  my	&#13;  passion	&#13;  and	&#13;  mission.	&#13;  My	&#13;  partner	&#13;  was	&#13;  married	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  man	&#13;  for	&#13;  many	&#13;  many	&#13;  years,	&#13;  being	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  
woman	&#13;  was	&#13;  new	&#13;  for	&#13;  her.	&#13;  She	&#13;  really	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  friends,	&#13;  like,	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  not	&#13;  care	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  Most	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  
friends	&#13;  now	&#13;  are	&#13;  heterosexuals,	&#13;  just	&#13;  because	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  who’s	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  connect	&#13;  with.	&#13;  Fortunately	&#13;  for	&#13;  
me,	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  has	&#13;  changed	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  segment	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  way	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  myself	&#13;  
with	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  that	&#13;  matters	&#13;  to	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  my	&#13;  closest	&#13;  long-­‐term	&#13;  friends	&#13;  are	&#13;  gay	&#13;  women.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
stepped	&#13;  away	&#13;  from	&#13;  PFLAG.	&#13;  I	&#13;  support	&#13;  completely	&#13;  what	&#13;  he	&#13;  [Jim]	&#13;  is	&#13;  doing,	&#13;  I	&#13;  admire	&#13;  and	&#13;  respect	&#13;  him	&#13;  so	&#13;  
much,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  each	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  should	&#13;  do	&#13;  what	&#13;  really	&#13;  moves	&#13;  us	&#13;  and	&#13;  speaks	&#13;  to	&#13;  us,	&#13;  not	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  
don’t	&#13;  support	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  been	&#13;  Jim’s	&#13;  calling	&#13;  and	&#13;  its	&#13;  phenomenal	&#13;  what	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  doing.	&#13;  I	&#13;  wish	&#13;  
that	&#13;  there	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  someone	&#13;  like	&#13;  Jim	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  That	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  have	&#13;  seen	&#13;  some	&#13;  example	&#13;  of	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  

	&#13;

�present	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  be	&#13;  happy	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  role	&#13;  in	&#13;  some	&#13;  high	&#13;  school,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  offered	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Diversity	&#13;  
Club	&#13;  or	&#13;  be	&#13;  there	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  kids	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  all	&#13;  kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  ways	&#13;  of	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  
great	&#13;  life.	&#13;  	&#13;  
30.17	&#13;  KA-­‐	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  is	&#13;  an	&#13;  anomaly	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Southwest	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  area?	&#13;  
30.23	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  Yes,	&#13;  I	&#13;  do.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  much	&#13;  about	&#13;  other	&#13;  communities	&#13;  in	&#13;  Southwest	&#13;  Virginia,	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  
Floyd,	&#13;  but	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  was	&#13;  working	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  retired	&#13;  judge,	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  sit	&#13;  in	&#13;  other	&#13;  places	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  unique.	&#13;  
For	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  reasons	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  has	&#13;  attracted	&#13;  since	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘70s	&#13;  an	&#13;  alternative	&#13;  community	&#13;  that	&#13;  historically	&#13;  
embraces	&#13;  everything.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean,	&#13;  live	&#13;  and	&#13;  let	&#13;  live,	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  turns	&#13;  you	&#13;  on,	&#13;  as	&#13;  long	&#13;  as	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  hurting	&#13;  
somebody.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  strong	&#13;  component	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  A	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  have	&#13;  come	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  county	&#13;  
because	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  got	&#13;  that	&#13;  energy.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  more	&#13;  new	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd,	&#13;  who	&#13;  are	&#13;  liberal	&#13;  and	&#13;  accepting,	&#13;  
welcoming,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  an	&#13;  advantage	&#13;  for	&#13;  us.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  still	&#13;  isn’t	&#13;  old	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  
everybody	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  county	&#13;  is	&#13;  supportive	&#13;  of	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  because	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  not,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  welcoming	&#13;  than	&#13;  
I	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  ever	&#13;  imagined.	&#13;  
31.39	&#13;  KA-­‐What	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  defining	&#13;  moment	&#13;  for	&#13;  you,	&#13;  like	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  look	&#13;  back	&#13;  on	&#13;  your	&#13;  
whole	&#13;  life	&#13;  and	&#13;  find	&#13;  one	&#13;  moment	&#13;  to	&#13;  pull	&#13;  and	&#13;  explain	&#13;  to	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  struggling	&#13;  with	&#13;  sexuality,	&#13;  what	&#13;  would	&#13;  
you	&#13;  take	&#13;  away	&#13;  from	&#13;  that	&#13;  defining	&#13;  moment?	&#13;  
32.03	&#13;  KO-­‐Yea,	&#13;  in	&#13;  terms	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  totality	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  acceptance	&#13;  of	&#13;  myself	&#13;  and	&#13;  really	&#13;  stepping	&#13;  out	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  
completely	&#13;  free,	&#13;  that	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  happen	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  until	&#13;  my	&#13;  40s	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  made	&#13;  that	&#13;  transition	&#13;  from	&#13;  quietly	&#13;  
being	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  to	&#13;  really	&#13;  openly	&#13;  being	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  was,	&#13;  my	&#13;  whole	&#13;  life	&#13;  changed.	&#13;  You	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  recognize	&#13;  how	&#13;  much	&#13;  
you	&#13;  are	&#13;  holding	&#13;  back,	&#13;  how	&#13;  much	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  hiding,	&#13;  until	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  just	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  fully	&#13;  be	&#13;  yourself.	&#13;  My	&#13;  
gratitude	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  courage	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  There	&#13;  are	&#13;  public	&#13;  figures	&#13;  in	&#13;  our	&#13;  life,	&#13;  who	&#13;  have	&#13;  
really	&#13;  changed	&#13;  the	&#13;  world,	&#13;  Ellen	&#13;  DeGeneres	&#13;  has	&#13;  changed	&#13;  the	&#13;  world,	&#13;  by	&#13;  being	&#13;  courageous	&#13;  enough,	&#13;  putting	&#13;  
her	&#13;  entire	&#13;  career	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  line,	&#13;  by	&#13;  being	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  “this	&#13;  is	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  am.”	&#13;  That	&#13;  changed	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  
how	&#13;  much	&#13;  different	&#13;  I	&#13;  felt	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  world.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  hold	&#13;  back	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  screen	&#13;  or	&#13;  filter,	&#13;  “that’s	&#13;  
probably	&#13;  not	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  place	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  my	&#13;  partner	&#13;  here.”	&#13;  Even	&#13;  though	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  shame	&#13;  about	&#13;  
myself.	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  plenty	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  do.	&#13;  They	&#13;  have	&#13;  religious	&#13;  messages	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  head	&#13;  that	&#13;  
they’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  worthy,	&#13;  that	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  sinners,	&#13;  condemned,	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  messages	&#13;  that	&#13;  come	&#13;  from	&#13;  
different	&#13;  families	&#13;  and	&#13;  from	&#13;  different	&#13;  religions,	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  sooner,	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  work	&#13;  it	&#13;  takes	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  okay	&#13;  with	&#13;  
yourself	&#13;  and	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  courage	&#13;  and	&#13;  willingness,	&#13;  no	&#13;  matter	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it,	&#13;  go	&#13;  somewhere,	&#13;  move	&#13;  
somewhere	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  feel	&#13;  free	&#13;  enough	&#13;  to	&#13;  authentically	&#13;  be	&#13;  yourself.	&#13;  Do	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  it	&#13;  really	&#13;  did	&#13;  
change	&#13;  my	&#13;  life	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  took	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time.	&#13;  The	&#13;  world’s	&#13;  different	&#13;  now.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  easier	&#13;  in	&#13;  some	&#13;  ways	&#13;  and	&#13;  still	&#13;  
very	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  for	&#13;  individuals,	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  better,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  change	&#13;  the	&#13;  fact	&#13;  that	&#13;  individual	&#13;  
families	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  very	&#13;  punishing	&#13;  and	&#13;  dismissive.	&#13;  For	&#13;  too	&#13;  many	&#13;  people	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  world,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  still	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  
have	&#13;  to	&#13;  lose	&#13;  by	&#13;  just	&#13;  being	&#13;  who	&#13;  they	&#13;  are,	&#13;  but	&#13;  the	&#13;  sooner	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  get	&#13;  to	&#13;  that	&#13;  point,	&#13;  the	&#13;  more	&#13;  happiness	&#13;  
that	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  individually,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think.	&#13;  	&#13;  
34.35	&#13;  KA-­‐You	&#13;  obviously	&#13;  flip-­‐flopped	&#13;  between	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  and	&#13;  Florida...	&#13;

that	&#13;  your	&#13;  mother,	&#13;  she	&#13;  knew,	&#13;  but	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of…	&#13;  
34.56	&#13;  KO-­‐She	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  accepting	&#13;  in	&#13;  anyway.	&#13;

�34.57	&#13;  KA-­‐Yes,	&#13;  so	&#13;  how	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  for	&#13;  parents	&#13;  now,	&#13;  especially	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  Southwestern	&#13;  Virginia,	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  
sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  more	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  area,	&#13;  what	&#13;  advice	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  give	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  deal	&#13;  with	&#13;  their	&#13;  children’s	&#13;  
sexuality?	&#13;  	&#13;  
35.16	&#13;  KO-­‐My	&#13;  parents	&#13;  grew	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  very	&#13;  accepting	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  educated	&#13;  themselves	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
obstacles	&#13;  against	&#13;  them	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  because	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  literature,	&#13;  much	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  literature	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  scary	&#13;  for	&#13;  
them.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  grateful	&#13;  that	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents	&#13;  eventually	&#13;  did	&#13;  their	&#13;  homework	&#13;  and	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  accept	&#13;  and	&#13;  love	&#13;  me	&#13;  for	&#13;  
who	&#13;  I	&#13;  was.	&#13;  As	&#13;  a	&#13;  parent,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  for	&#13;  me—I	&#13;  haven’t	&#13;  given	&#13;  birth	&#13;  to	&#13;  any	&#13;  children,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  step	&#13;  
children—its	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  understand	&#13;  why	&#13;  a	&#13;  parent	&#13;  would	&#13;  reject	&#13;  their	&#13;  kid.	&#13;  Most	&#13;  typically—I	&#13;  know	&#13;  
this	&#13;  was	&#13;  true	&#13;  for	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  before	&#13;  knew—when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  kid,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  boyish,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  most	&#13;  comfortable	&#13;  that	&#13;  
way,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  embarrassed.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  about	&#13;  her,	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  about	&#13;  me.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  her	&#13;  own	&#13;  discomfort	&#13;  
with	&#13;  having	&#13;  a	&#13;  kid	&#13;  that	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  conform	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  norm	&#13;  or	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  turn	&#13;  out	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  me	&#13;  to.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  
for	&#13;  parents	&#13;  dealing	&#13;  with	&#13;  any	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  kid	&#13;  who’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  the	&#13;  mainstream,	&#13;  not	&#13;  doing	&#13;  what	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  else	&#13;  
does.	&#13;  You	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  courage	&#13;  to	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  your	&#13;  own	&#13;  self	&#13;  and	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  what’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  going	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  
have	&#13;  the	&#13;  willingness	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that	&#13;  work	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  and	&#13;  love	&#13;  your	&#13;  kid.	&#13;  The	&#13;  world	&#13;  is	&#13;  scary	&#13;  enough	&#13;  when	&#13;  your	&#13;  
family	&#13;  supports	&#13;  and	&#13;  loves	&#13;  you,	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  solid	&#13;  foundation	&#13;  to	&#13;  stand	&#13;  on	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  
out	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  world.	&#13;  The	&#13;  world	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  for	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  different.	&#13;  And	&#13;  get	&#13;  help.	&#13;  There	&#13;  is	&#13;  plenty	&#13;  
of	&#13;  really	&#13;  great	&#13;  resources	&#13;  out	&#13;  there.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  it	&#13;  on	&#13;  your	&#13;  own,	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  someone	&#13;  else,	&#13;  find	&#13;  an	&#13;  
organization	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  parents	&#13;  who	&#13;  are	&#13;  going	&#13;  through	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  thing	&#13;  and	&#13;  support	&#13;  yourself,	&#13;  
it's	&#13;  lonely	&#13;  for	&#13;  parents,	&#13;  too.	&#13;  
37.34	&#13;  MK-­‐It	&#13;  sounds	&#13;  like	&#13;  an	&#13;  exhausting	&#13;  process	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  gay	&#13;  in	&#13;  general	&#13;  
37.37	&#13;  KO-­‐You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  not	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  
earlier	&#13;  about.	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  we	&#13;  tend	&#13;  to	&#13;  stick	&#13;  together	&#13;  in	&#13;  gathering,	&#13;  so	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  be	&#13;  comfortable	&#13;  and	&#13;  be	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  
and	&#13;  touch	&#13;  your	&#13;  partner	&#13;  because	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  other	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  are	&#13;  gay	&#13;  or	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  room.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  
don’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  such	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  community	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;

just	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  as	&#13;  much	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not—so,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  really	&#13;  silly	&#13;  thing—but	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  completely	&#13;  
gone.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  gay,	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  people	&#13;  should	&#13;  just	&#13;  do	&#13;  what	&#13;  heterosexuals	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  doing	&#13;  forever	&#13;  
because	&#13;  heterosexuals	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  doing	&#13;  it	&#13;  forever.	&#13;  Marriage	&#13;  is	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  things.	&#13;  There	&#13;  are	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  
happen,	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  married	&#13;  you	&#13;  typically,	&#13;  or	&#13;  sometimes,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  announcement	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  paper	&#13;  and	&#13;  
your	&#13;  picture	&#13;  is	&#13;  there.	&#13;  And	&#13;  everybody’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  “oh	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  so	&#13;  nice”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  about	&#13;  that	&#13;  recently.	&#13;  
We’re	&#13;  older	&#13;  which	&#13;  makes	&#13;  that	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  different	&#13;  but	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  probably	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  
paper.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  have	&#13;  some	&#13;  listing	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  there.	&#13;  There	&#13;  are	&#13;  little	&#13;  remnants	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  where,	&#13;  “yeah,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;

not	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  an	&#13;  issue	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  so	&#13;  refreshing	&#13;  that	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  the	&#13;  focus.	&#13;  My	&#13;  life	&#13;

�understand.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  open	&#13;  to	&#13;  it,	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  movement,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  some	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  learning.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  kinda	&#13;  the	&#13;  next	&#13;  terrain	&#13;  for	&#13;  me.	&#13;  How	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  respectfully	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  conversation	&#13;  without	&#13;  
using	&#13;  pronouns	&#13;  and	&#13;  what	&#13;  are	&#13;  people’s	&#13;  preferences?	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  uncomfortable	&#13;  just	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  
offend	&#13;  anyone.	&#13;  It	&#13;  certainly	&#13;  throughout	&#13;  my	&#13;  life	&#13;  has	&#13;  been	&#13;  a	&#13;  source	&#13;  of	&#13;  sadness	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  because	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  just	&#13;  
not	&#13;  included,	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  age	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  partners	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  partner	&#13;  for	&#13;  ten	&#13;  years,	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  30s	&#13;  who	&#13;  
[was	&#13;  a]	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  woman,	&#13;  very	&#13;  scared	&#13;  of	&#13;  telling	&#13;  her	&#13;  family	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  she	&#13;  never	&#13;  did.	&#13;  The	&#13;  entire	&#13;  time	&#13;  we	&#13;  
were	&#13;  together	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  taking	&#13;  family	&#13;  pictures	&#13;  at	&#13;  weddings	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’d	&#13;  been	&#13;  together	&#13;  for	&#13;  
eight	&#13;  years	&#13;  and	&#13;  no	&#13;  one	&#13;  said	&#13;  “Kim	&#13;  should	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  picture”	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  subtle	&#13;  exclusion	&#13;  is	&#13;  
really	&#13;  hard,	&#13;  really	&#13;  really	&#13;  hard.	&#13;  And	&#13;  that	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  happen	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  Many	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  pain	&#13;  of	&#13;  that.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  
just	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  your	&#13;  life.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  experienced	&#13;  and	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  grateful	&#13;  that	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  that	&#13;  way	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  You	&#13;

who	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  100%	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  open,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  	&#13;  Not	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  respect	&#13;  
and	&#13;  understand	&#13;  when	&#13;  other	&#13;  people	&#13;  make	&#13;  those	&#13;  very	&#13;  hard	&#13;  choices.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  fortunate	&#13;  in	&#13;  this	&#13;  sense	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  
life	&#13;  now.	&#13;  My	&#13;  mother	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  forbidding	&#13;  figure	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  life,	&#13;  very	&#13;  critical,	&#13;  very	&#13;  harsh.	&#13;  I	&#13;  spent	&#13;  most	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  
life	&#13;  worried	&#13;  about	&#13;  whether	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  doing	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  okay	&#13;  for	&#13;  her,	&#13;  and	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  dead,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  
mean	&#13;  to	&#13;  sound	&#13;  insensitive	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  but	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  anymore	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  care	&#13;  about	&#13;  
what	&#13;  their	&#13;  feelings	&#13;  are	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  influence	&#13;  me	&#13;  negatively.	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  am.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  sensitive	&#13;  and	&#13;  
kind	&#13;  to	&#13;  other	&#13;  people.	&#13;  But	&#13;  that	&#13;  voice	&#13;  of	&#13;  “uh	&#13;  oh,	&#13;  what’s	&#13;  she	&#13;  gunna	&#13;  say	&#13;  if	&#13;  do	&#13;  this”	&#13;  [is]	&#13;  gone.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  completely	&#13;  
gone.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  very	&#13;  liberating.	&#13;  Not	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  has	&#13;  that	&#13;  experience	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  grateful	&#13;  to	&#13;  say.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;

reappointed	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bench.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  historic,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  unusual	&#13;  for	&#13;  that	&#13;  to	&#13;  happen.	&#13;  They	&#13;  said	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
because	&#13;  of	&#13;  sexual	&#13;  harassment	&#13;  between	&#13;  her	&#13;  and	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  her	&#13;  employees.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  facts	&#13;  really	&#13;  
were.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  scared	&#13;  when	&#13;  that	&#13;  happened.	&#13;  My	&#13;  reappointment	&#13;  was	&#13;  coming	&#13;  up.	&#13;  I	&#13;  actually	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  phone	&#13;  
call	&#13;  from	&#13;  someone	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  general	&#13;  assembly.	&#13;  A	&#13;  friend	&#13;  who	&#13;  said	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  just	&#13;  giving	&#13;  you	&#13;  a	&#13;  heads	&#13;  up.	&#13;  There	&#13;  is	&#13;  
someone	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  wanting	&#13;  to	&#13;  target	&#13;  you	&#13;  when	&#13;  your	&#13;  reappointment	&#13;  comes	&#13;  up,	&#13;  because	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian.”	&#13;  
It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  man	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  delegate	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Richmond	&#13;  area.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  anti-­‐gay.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  staunch	&#13;  
Republican	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  district.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  openly	&#13;  and	&#13;  publicly	&#13;  targeting	&#13;  gay	&#13;  people.	&#13;  And	&#13;  what	&#13;  he	&#13;  did	&#13;  in	&#13;  his	&#13;  
campaign,	&#13;  whoever	&#13;  was	&#13;  running	&#13;  against	&#13;  him	&#13;  received	&#13;  a	&#13;  large	&#13;  donation	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  successful	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
businessman	&#13;  in	&#13;  Richmond.	&#13;  He	&#13;  then	&#13;  attacked	&#13;  him	&#13;  for	&#13;  doing	&#13;  this,	&#13;  as	&#13;  if	&#13;  it	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  terrible	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  At	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  
time	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  mine	&#13;  was	&#13;  running	&#13;  for	&#13;  governor,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  focused	&#13;  on	&#13;  Tim’s	&#13;  election	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  
never	&#13;  occurred	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  that	&#13;  this	&#13;  man	&#13;  would	&#13;  lose	&#13;  his	&#13;  election.	&#13;  The	&#13;  elections	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  November	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  
reappointment	&#13;  process	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  start	&#13;  in	&#13;  January,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  lost	&#13;  reelection.	&#13;  So	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  me,	&#13;  
whatever	&#13;  he	&#13;  intended	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  publicly	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  appointment,	&#13;  it	&#13;  never	&#13;  happened.	&#13;  But	&#13;  what	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  do?	&#13;  
But	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  turning	&#13;  point	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  professionally,	&#13;  too,	&#13;  and	&#13;  for	&#13;  Richmond,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  “wow,	&#13;  someone	&#13;  lost	&#13;  
reelection	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  an	&#13;  antigay	&#13;  platform.	&#13;  How	&#13;  great	&#13;  is	&#13;  that?”	&#13;  
49.04	&#13;  MK-­‐Would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  Southwest	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  and	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  has	&#13;  changed	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  stance	&#13;  of	&#13;  sexuality?	&#13;  	&#13;  
49.26	&#13;  KO-­‐I	&#13;  wouldn’t.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  old	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  changing.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  new	&#13;  people	&#13;  coming	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  
bringing	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  perceptive.	&#13;  There	&#13;  are	&#13;  some	&#13;  old	&#13;  timers,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  some	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  there	&#13;  
for	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time	&#13;  who—I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  create	&#13;  this	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  stereotype	&#13;  for	&#13;  anybody,	&#13;  that	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Southwest	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  is	&#13;  this	&#13;  conservative…—but	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  bible	&#13;  belt.	&#13;  There	&#13;  are	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  Christian	&#13;  
dominations	&#13;  there.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  slowly	&#13;  by,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  why	&#13;  I	&#13;  think,	&#13;  for	&#13;  me,	&#13;  my	&#13;  individual	&#13;  choice	&#13;  is	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  as	&#13;  open	&#13;  
as	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  anywhere	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  it,	&#13;  because	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  just	&#13;  think	&#13;  they	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  anyone.	&#13;  They	&#13;  
have	&#13;  their	&#13;  own	&#13;  stereotypes	&#13;  of	&#13;  gay	&#13;  people	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  fit	&#13;  it.	&#13;  So	&#13;  as	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  more	&#13;  openness,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  
greater,	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  least	&#13;  favorite	&#13;  words,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  greater	&#13;  tolerance.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  
accepting,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  accepting	&#13;  people	&#13;  are	&#13;  of	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  many	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  circles	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  in,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  
tolerating	&#13;  it,	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  pushing	&#13;  back.	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  no	&#13;  idea	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  say	&#13;  behind	&#13;  closed	&#13;  doors	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  
really	&#13;  care.	&#13;  My	&#13;  hairdresser	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  who	&#13;  has	&#13;  been	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  her	&#13;  whole	&#13;  life,	&#13;  generations,	&#13;  you	&#13;  
know,	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  amazing	&#13;  and	&#13;  progressive	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  creative.	&#13;  You	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  it	&#13;  from	&#13;  my	&#13;  hair—I’m	&#13;  
getting	&#13;  a	&#13;  haircut	&#13;  tomorrow—I	&#13;  shaved	&#13;  my	&#13;  head.	&#13;  My	&#13;  head	&#13;  was	&#13;  shaved	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  Nepal	&#13;  last	&#13;  year	&#13;  so	&#13;  
I’m	&#13;  just	&#13;  letting	&#13;  it	&#13;  go	&#13;  crazy.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  Krissy.	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  tell	&#13;  Krissy	&#13;  tomorrow	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  getting	&#13;  married	&#13;  and	&#13;  she’ll	&#13;  be	&#13;  
great	&#13;  and	&#13;  she’ll	&#13;  be	&#13;  “ah,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  so	&#13;  excited	&#13;  for	&#13;  you	&#13;  Kim.”	&#13;  Now	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  slightest	&#13;  idea	&#13;  what	&#13;  she	&#13;  really	&#13;  
thinks,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know.	&#13;  Does	&#13;  she	&#13;  really	&#13;  think	&#13;  “Wow,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know,”	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care.	&#13;  So	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  
part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care	&#13;  if	&#13;  people	&#13;  accept	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;

�be	&#13;  targeted.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  wanna	&#13;  be	&#13;  humiliated.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  wanna	&#13;  be	&#13;  harassed.	&#13;  But	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  are	&#13;  polite,	&#13;  if	&#13;  
they	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  you,	&#13;  they	&#13;  will	&#13;  just	&#13;  stay	&#13;  away	&#13;  from	&#13;  you.	&#13;  They’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  to	&#13;  your	&#13;  face	&#13;  that	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  hell.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  might,	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  give	&#13;  them	&#13;  a	&#13;  chance.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  conversation	&#13;  about	&#13;  theology	&#13;  
around	&#13;  homosexuality	&#13;  and	&#13;  Jim	&#13;  never	&#13;  does	&#13;  that,	&#13;  he	&#13;  never	&#13;  tries	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  theology	&#13;  conversation,	&#13;  he	&#13;  
could.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  neighbors,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  your	&#13;  neighbor,	&#13;  my	&#13;  neighbor	&#13;  happens	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  
everybody,	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  really	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  your	&#13;  heterosexual	&#13;  neighbors	&#13;  and	&#13;  friends	&#13;  about	&#13;  their	&#13;  heterosexuality?	&#13;  
You	&#13;  don’t.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  your	&#13;  business	&#13;  together,	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  do.	&#13;  Maybe	&#13;  Floyd’s	&#13;  changing	&#13;  
a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  because	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  more	&#13;  visible	&#13;  gay	&#13;  people	&#13;  there.	&#13;  They’re	&#13;  tolerant.	&#13;  The	&#13;  new	&#13;  people	&#13;  are	&#13;  
accepting.	&#13;  	&#13;  
52.29	&#13;  MK-­‐So	&#13;  you	&#13;  mention	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  Nepal	&#13;  last	&#13;  year,	&#13;  can	&#13;  you	&#13;  tell	&#13;  us	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  about	&#13;  it?	&#13;  
52.33	&#13;  KO-­‐I	&#13;  went	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  clinic.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  transformative,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  actually,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  been	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  more	&#13;  than	&#13;  a	&#13;  year,	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  the	&#13;  fall	&#13;  of	&#13;  2014.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  India	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  weeks	&#13;  ahead	&#13;  of	&#13;  time,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  in	&#13;  Nepal	&#13;  for	&#13;  more	&#13;  than	&#13;  
a	&#13;  month,	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  remote	&#13;  region	&#13;  in	&#13;  Nepal	&#13;  walking	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  doctors.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  obviously	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  
doctor.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  volunteering	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  clinics	&#13;  to	&#13;  [help	&#13;  with]	&#13;  patient	&#13;  control	&#13;  and	&#13;  things	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  
incredible.	&#13;  Unbelievably	&#13;  beautiful.	&#13;  And	&#13;  difficult,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  blessed,	&#13;  even	&#13;  our	&#13;  housing	&#13;  projects	&#13;  are	&#13;  better	&#13;  
than	&#13;  anything	&#13;  that	&#13;  people	&#13;  have	&#13;  in	&#13;  third	&#13;  world	&#13;  countries.	&#13;  	&#13;  
53.22	&#13;  MK-­‐Did	&#13;  you	&#13;  give	&#13;  you	&#13;  some	&#13;  perspective	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  world	&#13;  entirely?	&#13;  
53.25	&#13;  KO-­‐Yea,	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  powerful	&#13;  pieces	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  really	&#13;  was	&#13;  around	&#13;  technology	&#13;  for	&#13;  me,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  
we’re	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  balance	&#13;  with	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  access	&#13;  to	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  no	&#13;  cellphones,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  no	&#13;  
electricity	&#13;  still	&#13;  in	&#13;  parts	&#13;  of	&#13;  Nepal.	&#13;  The	&#13;  most	&#13;  remote	&#13;  regions.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  way	&#13;  that	&#13;  people	&#13;  are	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  present	&#13;  
to	&#13;  each	&#13;  other	&#13;  that	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  distraction.	&#13;  Of	&#13;  course	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  luxury	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  makes	&#13;  
life	&#13;  easier.	&#13;  They	&#13;  would	&#13;  love	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  technology	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  for	&#13;  ease	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  miss	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  one	&#13;  
minute.	&#13;  Movement,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  people	&#13;  there	&#13;  walk	&#13;  everywhere	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  entire	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
Northwest	&#13;  portion	&#13;  of	&#13;  Nepal,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  single	&#13;  motorized	&#13;  vehicle,	&#13;  not	&#13;  one.	&#13;  There	&#13;  are	&#13;  no	&#13;  motorized	&#13;  
vehicles.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  ancient,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  like	&#13;  stepping	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  time	&#13;  hundreds	&#13;  of	&#13;  years.	&#13;  Before	&#13;  cars	&#13;  and	&#13;  
you	&#13;  know	&#13;  people	&#13;  are	&#13;  walking.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  on	&#13;  an	&#13;  ancient	&#13;  trade	&#13;  route	&#13;  to	&#13;  Tibet	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  in	&#13;  China,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  hard	&#13;  for	&#13;  
me	&#13;  to	&#13;  call	&#13;  it	&#13;  China	&#13;  now,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  doing	&#13;  it	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  way,	&#13;  donkeys,	&#13;  sacks	&#13;  of	&#13;  flower	&#13;  and	&#13;  rice,	&#13;  and	&#13;  going	&#13;  
up,	&#13;  walking	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  China,	&#13;  to	&#13;  Tibet,	&#13;  to	&#13;  trade	&#13;  for	&#13;  salt	&#13;  and	&#13;  things.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  simplicity.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  easy	&#13;  to	&#13;  
romanticize	&#13;  that	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  conveniences	&#13;  [of	&#13;  first	&#13;  world	&#13;  life],	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  hard	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  
get	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  car	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  back.	&#13;  There	&#13;  are	&#13;  places	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  walk,	&#13;  not	&#13;  many,	&#13;  but	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  places	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  walk.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
walked	&#13;  to	&#13;  meetings	&#13;  like	&#13;  five	&#13;  miles	&#13;  from	&#13;  my	&#13;  house,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  nothing.	&#13;  We	&#13;  walked	&#13;  twice	&#13;  that	&#13;  much	&#13;  every	&#13;  day.	&#13;  
We’re	&#13;  spoiled	&#13;  and	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  disconnection	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  planet	&#13;  that	&#13;  happens	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  
back	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  minute.	&#13;  And	&#13;  highly	&#13;  recommend	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  anyone,	&#13;  travel.	&#13;  Travel,	&#13;  go	&#13;  places,	&#13;  and	&#13;  see	&#13;  things	&#13;  while	&#13;  you	&#13;  
can.	&#13;  
55.41	&#13;  KA-­‐So	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  done	&#13;  some	&#13;  traveling	&#13;  before	&#13;  Nepal,	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  that	&#13;  gave	&#13;  you	&#13;  
perspective	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole?	&#13;  
55.46	&#13;  KO-­‐Absolutely.	&#13;  India,	&#13;  Nepal.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  done	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  traveling	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  educates	&#13;  you	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  
way.	&#13;  As	&#13;  I	&#13;  say	&#13;  to	&#13;  you,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  commonness.	&#13;  You	&#13;  realize	&#13;  that	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  differences	&#13;  among	&#13;  
us.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  go,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  poorest	&#13;  places	&#13;  on	&#13;  Earth,	&#13;  next	&#13;  to	&#13;  Africa,	&#13;  in	&#13;  terms	&#13;  of	&#13;  food	&#13;  
and	&#13;  the	&#13;  winter	&#13;  months	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  hard	&#13;  for	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  survive.	&#13;  Their	&#13;  humanity,	&#13;  their	&#13;  humor,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  local	&#13;  customs	&#13;  
that	&#13;  are	&#13;  different,	&#13;  certainly	&#13;  they	&#13;  are,	&#13;  but	&#13;  things	&#13;  we	&#13;  want	&#13;  and	&#13;  need	&#13;  and	&#13;  desire	&#13;  in	&#13;  terms	&#13;  of	&#13;  connection,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  

	&#13;  

12	&#13;  

�all	&#13;  the	&#13;  same.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  been	&#13;  surprising	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  actually,	&#13;  no	&#13;  matter	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  go.	&#13;  There	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  McDonald’s	&#13;  
everywhere.	&#13;  In	&#13;  the	&#13;  bigger	&#13;  cities.	&#13;  
56.45	&#13;  MK-­‐So	&#13;  you	&#13;  traveled	&#13;  domestically,	&#13;  too,	&#13;  earlier	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘70s	&#13;  or	&#13;  ‘80s?	&#13;  
56.51	&#13;  KO-­‐I	&#13;  did	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  traveling.	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  more	&#13;  traveling	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘90s	&#13;  all	&#13;  over	&#13;  the	&#13;  US.	&#13;  
56.55	&#13;  MK-­‐You	&#13;  said	&#13;  your	&#13;  friends	&#13;  would	&#13;  seek	&#13;  out	&#13;  gay	&#13;  safe	&#13;  places,	&#13;  can	&#13;  you	&#13;  describe	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  what	&#13;  that	&#13;  would	&#13;  
be	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  those?	&#13;  
57.04	&#13;  KO-­‐Okay	&#13;  I	&#13;  actually	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  online	&#13;  then,	&#13;  but	&#13;  travel	&#13;  books,	&#13;  word	&#13;  of	&#13;  mouth.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  
hot	&#13;  spots.	&#13;  San	&#13;  Francisco,	&#13;  Key	&#13;  West	&#13;  were	&#13;  two	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  primary	&#13;  ones.	&#13;  Fort	&#13;  Lauderdale	&#13;  has	&#13;  [a	&#13;  scene],	&#13;  for	&#13;  men	&#13;  
actually	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  more	&#13;  male,	&#13;  but	&#13;  Key	&#13;  West	&#13;  and	&#13;  San	&#13;  Francisco	&#13;  were	&#13;  the	&#13;  two	&#13;  big	&#13;  places.	&#13;  New	&#13;  York,	&#13;  but	&#13;  not	&#13;  
so	&#13;  much	&#13;  actually.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  is	&#13;  more	&#13;  of	&#13;  cosmopolitan	&#13;  city,	&#13;  but	&#13;  not	&#13;  really	&#13;  known	&#13;  for	&#13;  being	&#13;  
welcoming	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  way,	&#13;  so	&#13;  yea	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  each	&#13;  other.	&#13;  “Where	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  experience?”	&#13;  
There	&#13;  are	&#13;  magazines.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Advocate	&#13;  has	&#13;  been	&#13;  around	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time.2	&#13;  And	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  all	&#13;  kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  
underground	&#13;  publications	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  know	&#13;  because	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bar	&#13;  and	&#13;  they’re	&#13;  
there.	&#13;  Local	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  find	&#13;  travel	&#13;  ads	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  people,	&#13;  even	&#13;  then,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  
court	&#13;  the	&#13;  population.	&#13;  	&#13;  
58.05	&#13;  KA-­‐So	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  these	&#13;  places	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  linked	&#13;  together	&#13;  the	&#13;  nation	&#13;  in	&#13;  sexuality,	&#13;  if	&#13;  that	&#13;  makes	&#13;  
sense?	&#13;

58.17	&#13;  KO-­‐Yea,	&#13;  absolutely.	&#13;  Washington	&#13;  D.C.,	&#13;  even	&#13;  DuPont	&#13;  Circle,	&#13;  as	&#13;  an	&#13;  example,	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bookstores	&#13;  where	&#13;  
you	&#13;  could	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  information.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  people	&#13;  go	&#13;  where	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  people	&#13;  like	&#13;  them	&#13;  or	&#13;  at	&#13;  least	&#13;  
where	&#13;  they	&#13;  feel	&#13;  safe	&#13;  being	&#13;  who	&#13;  they	&#13;  are,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  that	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  They	&#13;  certainly,	&#13;  well	&#13;  now	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  
don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  where	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  married,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  like	&#13;  “oh	&#13;  gosh,	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  
really	&#13;  love	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  legally	&#13;  married	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia,”	&#13;  but	&#13;  what	&#13;  difference	&#13;  does	&#13;  it	&#13;  make?	&#13;  We’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  legally	&#13;  
married.	&#13;  Part	&#13;  of	&#13;  me	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  that	&#13;  first	&#13;  person,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  sure	&#13;  nobody’s	&#13;  done	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Who	&#13;  walked	&#13;  into	&#13;  
the	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County	&#13;  Circuit	&#13;  Court	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “I’d	&#13;  like	&#13;  a	&#13;  marriage	&#13;  license.”	&#13;  	&#13;

59.14	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  Yea,	&#13;  and	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  hand	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  it	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  matter,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  we	&#13;  
can	&#13;  all	&#13;  do	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  important	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  now	&#13;  we	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  worry	&#13;  about	&#13;  insurance,	&#13;  and	&#13;

simpler,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  can	&#13;  worry	&#13;  about	&#13;  other	&#13;  things.	&#13;  	&#13;  
59.39	&#13;  KA-­‐	&#13;  So	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say—I	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  keep	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  traveling,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  plays	&#13;  an	&#13;  
important	&#13;  role	&#13;  in	&#13;  shaping	&#13;  you	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  person.	&#13;  Would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  may	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  person,	&#13;  if	&#13;

�1.00.11	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  Yea,	&#13;  I	&#13;  would!	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  born	&#13;  and	&#13;  raised	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  County,	&#13;  and	&#13;  never	&#13;  been	&#13;

gay	&#13;  bookstores…?”	&#13;  In	&#13;  the	&#13;  Castro	&#13;  district	&#13;  in	&#13;  San	&#13;  Francisco,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  movie	&#13;  theater	&#13;  that	&#13;  shows	&#13;  gay	&#13;  films.	&#13;  If	&#13;

me	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  that	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  broader	&#13;  world	&#13;  out	&#13;  here	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  narrow.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  bigger	&#13;  than	&#13;  where	&#13;  I	&#13;  am.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  
part	&#13;  of	&#13;  recognizing	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  everywhere.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  this	&#13;  way	&#13;  everywhere.	&#13;  Even	&#13;  in	&#13;  India,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  
surprised	&#13;  to	&#13;  see,	&#13;  routinely,	&#13;  men	&#13;  walking	&#13;  down	&#13;  the	&#13;  street	&#13;  holding	&#13;  hands.	&#13;  Being	&#13;  very	&#13;  affectionate	&#13;  and	&#13;  
close,	&#13;  they	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  homosexual.	&#13;  They	&#13;  just	&#13;  accepted	&#13;  this	&#13;  closeness	&#13;  among	&#13;  men,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  fine.	&#13;  You	&#13;  
learn	&#13;  from	&#13;  seeing	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  done	&#13;  differently	&#13;  in	&#13;  different	&#13;  places.	&#13;  Even	&#13;  though	&#13;  
humanity	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  same,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  expansive.	&#13;  It	&#13;  gives	&#13;  you	&#13;  a	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  hope,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  museum	&#13;  in	&#13;  
some	&#13;  ways.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  where	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  exposed	&#13;  to	&#13;  different	&#13;  ways	&#13;  of	&#13;  doing	&#13;  things.	&#13;  It	&#13;  helps	&#13;  you	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  
yourself,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  seeing	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  is	&#13;  bigger	&#13;  than	&#13;  my	&#13;  small	&#13;  little	&#13;  pocket.	&#13;  Especially	&#13;  for	&#13;  people	&#13;  
who	&#13;  have	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  limited	&#13;  worldview	&#13;  experience.	&#13;  There	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  tendency	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  either	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  our	&#13;  
experience	&#13;  is	&#13;  unique	&#13;  or	&#13;  that	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  else	&#13;  who	&#13;  has	&#13;  felt	&#13;  this	&#13;  way.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  power	&#13;  of	&#13;  story,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
especially	&#13;  when	&#13;  people	&#13;  are	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  stories.	&#13;  Someone	&#13;  else	&#13;  can	&#13;  read	&#13;  that,	&#13;  or	&#13;  listen	&#13;  to	&#13;  that,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  understand	&#13;  that	&#13;  “I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  alone.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  in	&#13;  world	&#13;  could	&#13;  possibly	&#13;  feel	&#13;  this	&#13;  way.”	&#13;  
Because	&#13;  they	&#13;  hadn’t	&#13;  been	&#13;  exposed,	&#13;  or	&#13;  people	&#13;  hadn’t	&#13;  been	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  the	&#13;  truth	&#13;  about	&#13;  their	&#13;  hard	&#13;  
things.	&#13;  	&#13;  
1.02.29	&#13;  KA-­‐	&#13;  So	&#13;  now,	&#13;  what	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  to	&#13;  people	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  world,	&#13;  who	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  get	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  their	&#13;  little	&#13;  pocket?	&#13;  
How	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  recommend	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  reach	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  outside	&#13;  their	&#13;  pocket?	&#13;  	&#13;  
1.02.44	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  Well	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  lots	&#13;  of	&#13;  ways	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  technology.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  virtual	&#13;  world	&#13;  of	&#13;  
company	&#13;  online.	&#13;  	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  great	&#13;  things	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  Jim’s	&#13;  communicating	&#13;  with	&#13;  
Quakers	&#13;  in	&#13;  Uganda,	&#13;  and	&#13;  connecting	&#13;  and	&#13;  talking.	&#13;  There	&#13;  are	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  ways	&#13;  to	&#13;  connect	&#13;  with	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  
share	&#13;  a	&#13;  perspective.	&#13;  You	&#13;  just	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  willingness.	&#13;  	&#13;  
I	&#13;  had	&#13;  this	&#13;  really	&#13;  interesting	&#13;  experience	&#13;  hiking.	&#13;  Anita	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  were	&#13;  hiking	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  Cascades,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  spectacularly	&#13;  
beautiful!	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  about	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  half	&#13;  ago.	&#13;  We	&#13;  encountered	&#13;  a	&#13;  man	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  trail,	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  effeminate,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  man.	&#13;  He	&#13;  just	&#13;  befriended	&#13;  us.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  lonely,	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  tell	&#13;  that.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  talking	&#13;  to	&#13;  us.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
thought	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  man,	&#13;  because	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  effeminate.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  how	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet	&#13;  
women,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  “honey,	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  pretend	&#13;  with	&#13;  me.	&#13;  You	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  that	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  
trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet	&#13;  women.	&#13;  We’re	&#13;  gay!	&#13;  We’re	&#13;  lesbians,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  together.	&#13;  No	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  put	&#13;  up	&#13;  this	&#13;  charade	&#13;  for	&#13;  
us.”	&#13;  We	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  top	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Cascades,	&#13;  he	&#13;  finally	&#13;  made	&#13;  it,	&#13;  he	&#13;  sat	&#13;  down.	&#13;  He	&#13;  told	&#13;  us	&#13;  his	&#13;  story,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he’s	&#13;  
actually	&#13;  a	&#13;  hermaphrodite.	&#13;  Really	&#13;  difficult,	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  mind	&#13;  blowing,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  “How	&#13;  could	&#13;  
anyone	&#13;  discriminate	&#13;  against	&#13;  someone	&#13;  who	&#13;  has	&#13;  an	&#13;  extra	&#13;  chromosome?”	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  pros	&#13;  and	&#13;  cons	&#13;  to	&#13;  that	&#13;  
whole	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  is	&#13;  there	&#13;  something	&#13;  genetic	&#13;  in	&#13;  me	&#13;  that	&#13;  makes	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian?	&#13;  This	&#13;  human	&#13;  actually	&#13;  had	&#13;  an	&#13;  
extra	&#13;  chromosome	&#13;  and	&#13;  had	&#13;  qualities	&#13;  of	&#13;  male/	&#13;  female	&#13;  and	&#13;  has	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  miserable	&#13;  existence,	&#13;  really	&#13;  identifies	&#13;  
as	&#13;  a	&#13;  female,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  Danny’s	&#13;  gender	&#13;  association	&#13;  is,	&#13;  but	&#13;  wants	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  with	&#13;  women.	&#13;  He	&#13;  just	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  
fall	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  category	&#13;  of	&#13;  anything	&#13;  that	&#13;  makes	&#13;  sense,	&#13;  right?	&#13;  She	&#13;  is	&#13;  like	&#13;  completely	&#13;  isolated	&#13;  and	&#13;  lonely,	&#13;  
we’ve	&#13;  tried	&#13;  to	&#13;  connect	&#13;  with	&#13;  her	&#13;  on	&#13;  any	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  occasions,	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  invited	&#13;  her	&#13;  to	&#13;  PFLAG	&#13;  events.	&#13;  We’ve	&#13;  
got	&#13;  Jim	&#13;  and	&#13;  Anita	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  taken	&#13;  her	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  movies	&#13;  once,	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  very	&#13;  attractive,	&#13;  very	&#13;  smart,	&#13;  and	&#13;  won’t	&#13;  
step	&#13;  outside	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  box.	&#13;  We	&#13;  invited	&#13;  her	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  meeting,	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  where	&#13;  there	&#13;  
was	&#13;  other	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  There’s,	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  her	&#13;  own	&#13;  history,	&#13;  she	&#13;  has	&#13;  a	&#13;  mindset	&#13;  that	&#13;  
she’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  anyone	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  okay	&#13;  with	&#13;  her,	&#13;  and	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  wrong.	&#13;  She’s	&#13;  wrong.	&#13;  But	&#13;  that	&#13;  fear	&#13;  and	&#13;  
whatever	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  happened	&#13;  to	&#13;  kinda	&#13;  hold	&#13;  her	&#13;  down	&#13;  her	&#13;  whole	&#13;  life,	&#13;  is	&#13;  keeping	&#13;  her	&#13;  from	&#13;  connecting	&#13;  with	&#13;  
	&#13;  

14	&#13;  

�the	&#13;  world	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  there,	&#13;  how	&#13;  do	&#13;  you…	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean,	&#13;  you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  force	&#13;  someone	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  
willing	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  really	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  make	&#13;  the	&#13;  connections,	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  courage	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  try	&#13;  this.”	&#13;  
You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  bad	&#13;  experiences	&#13;  where	&#13;  people	&#13;  have	&#13;  made	&#13;  fun	&#13;  of	&#13;  her	&#13;  and	&#13;  her	&#13;  own	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  
herself	&#13;  is	&#13;  so	&#13;  damaged.	&#13;  You	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  believe	&#13;  in	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  enough	&#13;  to	&#13;  know	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  worthy,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  worth	&#13;  having	&#13;  
friends,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  worth	&#13;  having	&#13;  good	&#13;  friends.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  find	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  this	&#13;  world.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it,	&#13;  
put	&#13;  forth	&#13;  the	&#13;  effort.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  no	&#13;  reason	&#13;  why	&#13;  someone	&#13;  should	&#13;  be	&#13;  alone,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  not.	&#13;  You	&#13;  just	&#13;  have	&#13;  
someone	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  or	&#13;  somewhere	&#13;  see	&#13;  that	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  case.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  easy	&#13;  for	&#13;  some	&#13;  folks.	&#13;  
1.06.45	&#13;  MK-­‐	&#13;  Can	&#13;  you	&#13;  point	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  moment	&#13;  in	&#13;  your	&#13;  life	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  felt	&#13;  that	&#13;  way,	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  that	&#13;  
realization	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  worthy	&#13;  of	&#13;  not	&#13;  being	&#13;  alone?	&#13;  	&#13;  
1.06.54	&#13;  KO-­‐	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  never	&#13;  my	&#13;  issue.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  whether	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  
athlete.	&#13;  So	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  time	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  outsider,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  always	&#13;  an	&#13;  insider.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  team	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  good	&#13;  at	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  always	&#13;  had	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  gave	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  belonging.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  very	&#13;  fortunate.	&#13;  That	&#13;  is	&#13;  one	&#13;  
of	&#13;  the	&#13;  hardest	&#13;  struggles	&#13;  that	&#13;  people	&#13;  have,	&#13;  is	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  [thinks	&#13;  of	&#13;  
me].”	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  the	&#13;  struggle	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had.	&#13;  Mine	&#13;  was	&#13;  more	&#13;  of…	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  formative	&#13;  experiences	&#13;  
with	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  call	&#13;  them.	&#13;  That	&#13;  screwed	&#13;  me	&#13;  up	&#13;  so	&#13;  much,	&#13;  that	&#13;  what	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  
understand	&#13;  was	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  make	&#13;  a	&#13;  commitment	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  relationship.	&#13;  What	&#13;  is	&#13;  long	&#13;  term	&#13;  fidelity	&#13;  and	&#13;  loyalty?	&#13;  
Not	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  bad	&#13;  person	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  understand.	&#13;  	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  my	&#13;  work,	&#13;  learning	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  
in	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  term	&#13;  relationship.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  wired	&#13;  for	&#13;  that,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Those	&#13;  are	&#13;  the	&#13;  things	&#13;  I	&#13;  
had	&#13;  to	&#13;  deal	&#13;  with.	&#13;  Fears	&#13;  of	&#13;  abandonment,	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  was	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  leave	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  minute	&#13;  because	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  
were	&#13;  just	&#13;  taken	&#13;  form	&#13;  me.	&#13;  Any	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  I	&#13;  had,	&#13;  if	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  about	&#13;  it,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  over.	&#13;  No	&#13;  
closure,	&#13;  no	&#13;  conversation,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  fucked-­‐up	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  to	&#13;  begin	&#13;  with.	&#13;  Then	&#13;  when	&#13;  they	&#13;  
weren’t—with	&#13;  people	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  age	&#13;  or	&#13;  whatever—there	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  way	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  that	&#13;  happen.	&#13;  You	&#13;  just	&#13;  
couldn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  term	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  without	&#13;  a	&#13;  tremendous	&#13;  amount	&#13;  of	&#13;  secrecy,	&#13;  struggle,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  been	&#13;  my	&#13;  work,	&#13;  not	&#13;  worthiness	&#13;  individually,	&#13;  but	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  heal	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  
internal	&#13;  wounds.	&#13;  We	&#13;  all	&#13;  have	&#13;  them,	&#13;  how	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  healings	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  get	&#13;  in	&#13;  own	&#13;  way,	&#13;  
sabotage	&#13;  things	&#13;  without	&#13;  really	&#13;  knowing	&#13;  it.	&#13;  
1.09.23	&#13;  KA-­‐So	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  might	&#13;  be	&#13;  contingent	&#13;  with	&#13;  your	&#13;  generation?	&#13;  
1.09.31	&#13;  KO-­‐Maybe,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  issue,	&#13;  it	&#13;  strikes	&#13;  me	&#13;  being	&#13;  worth	&#13;  saying	&#13;  this,	&#13;  too.	&#13;  And	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  just	&#13;  
for	&#13;  being	&#13;  gay,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  harder	&#13;  when	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  different,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  what	&#13;  happened	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
formative	&#13;  experiences	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  those	&#13;  tender	&#13;  years	&#13;  of	&#13;  experimentation,	&#13;  what	&#13;  happened	&#13;  for	&#13;  
me	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t,	&#13;  even	&#13;  though	&#13;  I	&#13;  felt	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  okay,	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  solid	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  myself	&#13;  as	&#13;  an	&#13;  
individual	&#13;  separate	&#13;  from	&#13;  anything	&#13;  else.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  me.	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  fine	&#13;  all	&#13;  by	&#13;  myself,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  need	&#13;  a	&#13;  relationship.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  
really	&#13;  did.	&#13;  I	&#13;  needed	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  and	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  it,	&#13;  but	&#13;  things	&#13;  got	&#13;  torn	&#13;  away	&#13;  from	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  
became	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  important	&#13;  thing	&#13;  for	&#13;  me,	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  formative	&#13;  experiences.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  happens	&#13;  
a	&#13;  lot,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  hard	&#13;  enough	&#13;  as	&#13;  an	&#13;  adolescent,	&#13;  but	&#13;  when	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  or	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  person	&#13;  that	&#13;  
tendency	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  defined	&#13;  by	&#13;  or	&#13;  feel	&#13;  like	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  someone	&#13;  anchor	&#13;  you.	&#13;  “My	&#13;  better	&#13;  half,	&#13;  my	&#13;  other	&#13;

there	&#13;  were	&#13;  plenty,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  taken	&#13;  care	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  business.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  stand	&#13;  completely	&#13;  alone,	&#13;  in	&#13;  fact	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  
being	&#13;  alone.	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  interests.	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  Nepal	&#13;  without	&#13;  my	&#13;  partner.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  icing	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  cake,	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
of	&#13;  folks	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  see	&#13;  that.	&#13;  That	&#13;  a	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  is	&#13;  really	&#13;  not	&#13;  to	&#13;  compliment	&#13;  or	&#13;  fix.	&#13;  When	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  lonely,	&#13;  of	&#13;  
course	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  looking	&#13;  for	&#13;  that.	&#13;  You	&#13;  think	&#13;  “if	&#13;  only	&#13;  I	&#13;  had,	&#13;  if	&#13;  only	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  person.”	&#13;  Danny	&#13;  the	&#13;

�hermaphrodite,	&#13;  “if	&#13;  only	&#13;  I	&#13;  met...”	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  about	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  person.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  about	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  first	&#13;  
then	&#13;  being	&#13;  completely	&#13;  whole	&#13;  and	&#13;  solid	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  you	&#13;  meet	&#13;  is	&#13;  gonna,	&#13;  its	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  
different	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  relationship.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  this	&#13;  co-­‐dependent	&#13;  fearful	&#13;  needy	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  “hey,	&#13;  
we’re	&#13;  two	&#13;  great	&#13;  people,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  perfectly	&#13;  fine	&#13;  by	&#13;  myself	&#13;  but	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  even	&#13;  better	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  someone	&#13;  to	&#13;  share	&#13;  life	&#13;  
with.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  risk	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  when	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  marginalized,	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  live	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  way	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  just…	&#13;  
I	&#13;  craved	&#13;  community.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  a	&#13;  pack	&#13;  animal	&#13;  by	&#13;  nature,	&#13;  anyway,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  want,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  craved	&#13;  community,	&#13;  you	&#13;  
know	&#13;  people	&#13;  like-­‐minded,	&#13;  people	&#13;  where	&#13;  I	&#13;  could,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  be	&#13;  myself	&#13;  and	&#13;  share	&#13;  life	&#13;  with.	&#13;  So	&#13;  yea,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  
just	&#13;  generally	&#13;  speaking	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  challenge	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  okay	&#13;  all	&#13;  by	&#13;  themselves.	&#13;  To	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  life	&#13;  that	&#13;  
is	&#13;  separate	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  love	&#13;  interest	&#13;  or	&#13;  distraction	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  way.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  sure	&#13;  when	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  that	&#13;  much	&#13;  loss	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  
want…	&#13;  This	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  thing	&#13;  my	&#13;  step-­‐daughter	&#13;  has	&#13;  said	&#13;  this,	&#13;  “I	&#13;  just	&#13;  want	&#13;  someone,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  
important	&#13;  thing	&#13;  to	&#13;  someone.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  we	&#13;  can	&#13;  all	&#13;  identify	&#13;  with	&#13;  that,	&#13;  right?	&#13;  You	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  
important	&#13;  thing	&#13;  to	&#13;  yourself.	&#13;  You	&#13;  really	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  expect	&#13;  the	&#13;  relationship,	&#13;  of	&#13;  course,	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  your	&#13;  partner	&#13;  to	&#13;  
think	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  fantastic	&#13;  and	&#13;  wonderful,	&#13;  why	&#13;  would	&#13;  you	&#13;  be	&#13;  with	&#13;  someone	&#13;  who	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  that?	&#13;  But	&#13;  if	&#13;  
you	&#13;  are	&#13;  looking	&#13;  for	&#13;  someone	&#13;  to	&#13;  give	&#13;  you	&#13;  that	&#13;  primary	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  belonging,	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  missing	&#13;  something.	&#13;  
That’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  the	&#13;  openness	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  support	&#13;  that	&#13;  so	&#13;  many	&#13;  gay	&#13;  and	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  people	&#13;  have	&#13;  now,	&#13;  it	&#13;  really	&#13;  
helps	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  healthy	&#13;  relationships.	&#13;  Yea,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  been	&#13;  interesting	&#13;  to	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  wondered,	&#13;  “why?”	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  had	&#13;  
three	&#13;  significant	&#13;  long-­‐term	&#13;  relationships	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  life.	&#13;  This	&#13;  is	&#13;  my	&#13;  third.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  movement	&#13;  in,	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  look	&#13;  
in	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  Richmond.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  people	&#13;  have	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of,	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  very	&#13;  few	&#13;  relationships,	&#13;  two	&#13;  of	&#13;  
my	&#13;  best	&#13;  friends	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  together	&#13;  for	&#13;  almost	&#13;  thirty	&#13;  years.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  very	&#13;  unusual,	&#13;  and	&#13;  why	&#13;  is	&#13;  that?	&#13;  Is	&#13;  it	&#13;  
any	&#13;  more	&#13;  or	&#13;  less	&#13;  than	&#13;  heterosexuals?	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  research	&#13;  shows,	&#13;  seems	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  likes	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  more	&#13;  
and	&#13;  why?	&#13;  Is	&#13;  it…	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  the	&#13;  answer	&#13;  to	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  marriage	&#13;  is	&#13;  really	&#13;  a	&#13;  communal	&#13;  
event.	&#13;  Historically,	&#13;  I	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  there	&#13;  because	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  about	&#13;  property.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  of	&#13;  
the	&#13;  support	&#13;  that	&#13;  heterosexual	&#13;  couples	&#13;  have,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  social	&#13;  network	&#13;  that	&#13;  really	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  
get	&#13;  divorce,	&#13;  that	&#13;  wants	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  stay	&#13;  together.	&#13;  There’s	&#13;  services,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  friends,	&#13;  and	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  marriage.	&#13;  
There’s	&#13;  marriage,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  small	&#13;  thing	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  married.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  hard	&#13;  thing	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  divorced.	&#13;  A	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  contracts,	&#13;  
it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  promise,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  agreement.	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  that,	&#13;  did	&#13;  that	&#13;  matter?	&#13;  Has	&#13;  that	&#13;  created	&#13;  less	&#13;  stability	&#13;  
in	&#13;  the	&#13;  relationship?	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know.	&#13;  	&#13;

heartbreak.	&#13;  But	&#13;  fundamental	&#13;  to	&#13;  any	&#13;  good	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  or	&#13;  any	&#13;  healthy	&#13;  living	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  strong	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  
worthiness	&#13;  and	&#13;  value	&#13;  alone.	&#13;  You’re	&#13;  home	&#13;  is	&#13;  in	&#13;  yourself,	&#13;  my	&#13;  home	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  self,	&#13;  until	&#13;  my	&#13;  fifties,	&#13;  late	&#13;  
forties	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  but	&#13;  fifties,	&#13;  but	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  nothing	&#13;  that	&#13;  can	&#13;  rock	&#13;  you,	&#13;  when	&#13;  your	&#13;  happiness	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  depend	&#13;  on	&#13;  
anything	&#13;  outside	&#13;  of	&#13;  you	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  nothing	&#13;  that	&#13;  can	&#13;  rock	&#13;  you.	&#13;  Not	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  core.	&#13;  Obviously	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  things	&#13;  
that	&#13;  happen	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  and	&#13;  challenging	&#13;  but	&#13;  not	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  way	&#13;  of,	&#13;  you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  be	&#13;  okay	&#13;  without	&#13;  it.	&#13;  	&#13;

�0:04 HT: From…
0:05 RS: The Roanoke Diversity Center.
0:06 HT: Okay. Can you start off by telling us where you're from?
0:09 RS: Well, I was born in Roanoke, and lived here most of my life. I moved to Richmond in
1980 and came back here in 1984, and have been here ever since.
0:20 HT: Okay, so how do you identify yourself within the Roanoke community?
0:24 RS: I am a gay male.
0:26 HT: Okay. How long have you lived in Roanoke?
0:31 RS: 54 Years, with four of those being in Richmond, I mean four additional ones being in
Richmond. I’m 58.
0:39 HT: Okay, would you like to talk about growing up for a little bit, like you said you moved
to Richmond, would you like describe that for a little bit?
0:50 RS: Sure, well, going back a little further, when I was about 5 or 6 I realized I was different
from folks because I would watch Westerns and when a person got shot I would want them to
take their shirt off so I could see them, and I didn't really know what “gay” was but I enjoyed the
guys with their shirts off and I had a preference with the ones that weren't hairy, even at that age,
and as I got older and found out that wasn't the way everyone was I hid that and it didn't even
come out until 1984, kinda by accident, with a personal situation that I had after I moved back
from Richmond.
1:36 HT: Okay, so do you want to tell us a little bit about Richmond?
1:40 RS: Sure, I transferred up there with Long John Silvers. I was Assistant Manager, and it was
the first time I was away from home. I lived with my parents until then, and when I moved there
I didn't immediately jump into the gay life because I was busy trying to work, and I went to a
few clubs there and some gay cafe things, but I would sit outside and sit for an hour or so
wondering if I wanted to go in because I didn't want anyone I may know ride by to see me going
in a gay club. So, the hesitation was there but once I got in there I felt really relaxed and was
amazed that there was so many people that A. I was attracted to, B. That were like me and some
that weren't like me because there's so many different facets of diversity in life.
2:31 HT: Definitely, so, could tell us a little bit about how you came out. So you're talking about
being in Richmond for a little bit. Did you come back to Roanoke and continue your life the way
you'd been living?
2:43 RS: I did. Well, while I was there I met several folks and had several gay experiences and
one of the people I met on my job was a security guard and he was fellow security guard but he

2

�had several side jobs. One, he was a stockbroker, and he was a local county cop, he wasn't a
Richmond cop, but he was a nearby county cop, and I'm thinking why are you a security guard,
which is kinda of a low man on the totem pole if you're a stockbroker and you're a cop and all
this. So you tend not to believe folks like that. Well, one night he took me to his office, he had a
nice office, desk, name on the desk, it was his name. Then one night I had to take his shift and
my car had broken down and it was after the bus hours and I worked til midnight and he said I
can pick you up, but I'm on my shift doing the police stuff, but I'll pick up in the squad car, we
gotta hurry back cause I have to get to the other side of the city. So he picked me up there, he
was in a fully uniformed cop car and everything. So everything he told me was true. Also along
those lines, he told me that his favorite thing was to cut people, and he told me he killed people.
And [he] had a farm in Montpelier where his parents lived, and I said okay, here's a guy that I
didn't think was a stockbroker but was, didn't think he was a cop but he was, and so why should
not believe the stories he's told me about hurting people and killing people and burying them in
plots down [on] his mother’s and dad’s farm? Anyway, that caused a problem while I was there.
I met a guy hitchhiking to Kings Dominion, I was doing a bank run from Richmond to
Winchester and I saw the guy standing on the side of the road and he was hitchhiking he had no
shirt on, and of course “Ding Ding!” [imitating sound of a bell] So I drove really quickly to the
place, switched cars to get the company car, rode back. Luckily he was still there hitchhiking. I
picked him up, we drove towards Kings Dominion and he said “Do you know of any gay places
in town?” and I said “a few,” and we got to talking. I gave him my number and the next week we
wound up together… temporarily, but over the course of the next year or two, with my friendship
with the cop/stockbroker/guard and this guy. Because I knew what this guy was he was a hustler
he didn't just do things for the fun of it because he loved women, and so I said the things the
stockbroker/cop guy wanted to do or did do with guys sexually this other guy didn't do because
he was straight, so I told the stockbroker/cop guy that he would never have the other person,
which was my favorite person at the time so that made the stockbroker/cop person making up his
mind he was going to have the other guy just to make me mad and to prove he could do it.
So I went to Winchester and came back one day and came home. The backdoor had been kicked
in. The guys were in the house, my guy was told by the cop it was okay to break it in, he was a
cop, so he broke the door in, and then they did their thing. I came home and saw this and was
upset on several levels. 1. there was a break in at the house; 2. a cop did it; 3. they had ya know
sex and it was my guy, so there was jealousy there. So I just act like nothing happened, I changed
my clothes and I left. I immediately went to a phone and called mom and dad told them there
was some issues at the house and that I needed to come home. And the next day dad came up
with the U-haul and we moved back to Roanoke. Again they didn't know why I was having these
issues, or [why] that I'm willing to move back.
So once I got back, over a few months my dad passed away, and before that I had told him I was
gay and I was glad that I did because I wanted him to know before he passed away. But prior to
him passing away I got angry at this guy that I liked cause he came back to Roanoke to visit me
and wouldn't have sex with me after I'd gone back to Richmond and picked him up. So when I
came back the guy was at a storage building that I had, and I just locked the car, I mean I left him
in the car, I took the key, and I walked home. As I got towards the house, it was 2 or 3 in the
morning, I said “I don't really like what's going on. I don't like my life. I don't like that he's
treating me like this.” And so I just continued walking down Shenandoah Avenue, walked

�downtown, walked over toward Tanglewood and I hitchhiked to North Carolina with seven
dollars in my pocket in November. Had nothing with me except seven dollars and I was going to
go as far away as I could, and I got to North Carolina, Greensboro, and I called back home to my
sister, who did know that I was gay, and I said “tell mom and dad I'm gay and see if they love
me, see if they want me to come home, see if they want me to go on.” She said “okay, call back
at 3 o'clock”—this is way before cell phones. So I called back at 2 o'clock and she said
“everything's fine, come on home, they're coming down to get you stay right where you are.” So
I sat around, waited for them, they picked me up at the Krispy Kreme, everybody knows the
Krispy Kreme in Greensboro. So they picked me up, and on the way home I slept, cause I hadn’t
slept in a day or so, and I get home and I walk in the door and I said “well, I'm going to bed, I'll
see you guys later.” And dad said "sit down we need to talk" [in low baritone voice]. So I sat
down, and I said “what do we need to talk about?” He said “why did you hitchhike to
Greensboro?” My sister had not told them anything and ambushed me and I was sitting there
having to just let it all out, so I told my dad that I—short story—I just said “if I see a guy and a
girl walking down the beach I'm going to look at the guy.” He said “well, all you need to do is be
with a girl and you'll be okay.” I said “that'll work no more than you being with a guy is going to
change you.” Anyway, we were friendly, and they accepted me. And five or six months later he
passed away and mom loved me. I think she was disappointed in the fact that I couldn't give
them children on that side, cause I'm the only son, but that's when they found out and that was
1984.
9:14 HT: okay, well thank you for sharing that with us. So you did talk about the police, like
your friend was a police officer, how in that time did the police affect people that were gay
specifically? Did they target them? Did you have any experience with that?
9:30 RS: I didn't have it in Richmond. There's a place there, it's a World War II memorial, called
the Cariline or the Carilion and it's a huge monument that's rather phallic-looking,1 but anyway
that's where all the gay people went to meet, so I met several people there. When I came back to
Roanoke, that's where I noticed some of the [police] stings and changes in the parks that tried to
alleviate people being gay basically. We did have the bar The Park but only open 3 or 4 days a
week. The only other place to meet folks were in parks, and they [the police] would do stings and
set people up, and put undercover cops out there, and if you approached them you’d get arrested.
At one point I think they arrested 23 people in one night. One sheriff took over several years ago
and cleared all the brush up the side of Highland Park overlooking the railroad track by the dog
park so that guys couldn't go over there in the bushes or if they did they'd be seen. So they were
doing everything they could to eradicate gayness like they couldn't do that but they just wanted
to get it out from in the open and off the streets so to speak.
There was also an area around, well it's across the street from Elmwood Park between the park
and the interstate and there's a little L street in there and they called that the Butcher Block, and
there would be boys there every night.2 And you could go over, pick up the one you wanted, talk
to them a little bit, take them somewhere and bring them back. But there, toward I guess 1983 or
so, the cops cracked down on that and you couldn't find these guys anywhere.

�Also during, right after that time, the Internet started blowing up and that's where people started
meeting folks and it got easier and also a little bit more dangerous to meet people. But the only
thing I really remember are those stings. They had a big one in Wasena Park, the neighbors in
Wasena Park thought that every gay person was out to molest their kids.3 So the police kinda
cleared Wasena Park out, and recently over the last five years they put the greenway in. Which
alleviated the possibility or ability to drive from one side of the park to the other and sit and talk,
we used sit and talk with our friends for hours. And there was no sex at all, we just hung out
there, and they took that road out and you can only walk through there and there was another
reason, you know it was for the greenway they could've moved it another way or had it a
different way, but I think that was another way to kinda crack down on gayness in the parks.
That happened not long after the sheriff came in and had the guys tear up all the trees and bushes
over next to the railroad track up the hill [at Highland Park], for people to hide.
12:26 HT: Okay, definitely, so what has your experience with nightlife in downtown Roanoke
been since you've been back from Richmond?
12:38 RS: Okay, when I left I think The Park was there but I didn't know anything about it. I
rode by it once and it said “private club,” and I didn't really know what that was. I knew we had
the Moose club and the Elks club and I said “what kinda club is this private club?”4 So I didn't
go in for years. When I got back from Richmond, I had heard about Backstreet and back then
Backstreet was a gay bar, right now it's a heavy metal bar or just a bar in itself. But back then
being a gay bar, I did my Richmond thing, I pulled up and I watched to see who went in, to see if
there was anyone I knew, because I didn't want anyone I knew to know me and get me out at
work and get me fired. So I sat there for about an hour, again just getting up the nerve to go in.
One night I was there, funny not funny story, I heard about this person, very famous drag queen
in town, and that person drove up I knew of them and they were followed by another person that
I knew fairly well. And they argued in the street and the person that was the drag queen was
going into the bar and the other person ran behind them, arguing with them, and hit them in the
head with a hammer. Didn't hurt them very much, they got up and went on in the bar, but that
night I decided not to go in. Years later I wound up dating the drag queen person for three or four
months. But anyway, the other part of being, the nightlife part, when you went to The Park and it
was real busy night, they had a line out the door and the door was on the right side of the
building and the building was rather wide, so the line, if it was real busy, the line would stretch
down almost half a city block, so you were lined up against the wall. I tried to plan it so I would
get there early enough so I wouldn't have to stand in the line. Cause there were fears of people
riding up and down the road that were already calling everybody “faggot this” or “faggot that.”
And you didn't know when somebody was gonna get a gun and just go pow pow pow pow
pow.[imitating the sound of a gun firing] Because we were all lined up like ducks in a row, so
that was a scary time because you just didn't know what would happen with the hatred that was
everywhere.

�14:51 HT: So you mentioned discrimination at work. Like you couldn't let people know that you
were gay and you would get fired. Could you explain a little bit about that? Like did that happen
just in your field or was it throughout the whole community?
15:06 RS: Well, you heard stories back then of people being disowned by their families, beaten,
right around the time it was Matthew Shepard being killed,5 and probably others killed that you
didn't hear about, but I didn't feel that at my work once I was comfortable going to the bars,
because my boss's brother was gay and I saw him at The Park and I felt a little better about that.
So I knew at least my boss accepted me, and then over the years that I worked there, which it
was an insurance company, it was Anthem Blue Cross / Blue Shield, they accepted partners on
your insurance, all you had to do was prove they lived with you and they would cover them on
your insurance even though you weren't married and marriage was not legal then. So I felt better
at work over the years but then it was just that initial thing. More so I guess people knowing me,
seeing me, going in, riding by and being my friends and hating me. More so than me being fired
because right off the bat I knew the boss's son was gay and I didn't think I’d have a problem with
that. It was just the fact that friends, you'd lose friends just by telling them that you were gay.
Whether you were attracted to them or not because at that time a lot of folks were anti-gay.
16:33 HT: so how did being discriminated against and stigmatized affect your relationships with
other people, in this time?
16:42 RS: I didn't have any friends that knew I was gay. At work they may have thought I was
gay, but unless I was really really close with them and knew that I could tell them really
anything, and it was a handful, I didn't tell everyone, I didn't have gay banners on my desk. I
didn't say “Hey, I went to The Park Friday night” or anything like that. One day I was across the
street from the office, the office was on the fourth floor, and I was in the parking garage and I
had a significant other with me and they kissed me on the cheek as they left, and somebody I
heard later on said “who was that guy that I saw you kissing?” It kinda got around that I was gay
but I had to work extra hard in my job so that I would be more or less in my brain indispensable,
so that if they found I was gay they would go “he's gay but he does such a great job.” In fact I
had a guy that was a good friend of mine, I don’t know if he was antigay or not, but he found out
from another friend that I was gay and he said “Rodger? I didn't know he was gay,” and then
after he found out I was gay it didn't change our relationship because again my work ethic and
the way I acted and carried myself at work made me look and seem no different from anyone
else. So he was shocked that I was. Some folks don't have that luxury, you can tell they're gay
when they walk in the room. They're flamboyant sometimes on purpose, sometimes they can't
help it and sometimes it's just them being themselves, and now luckily it's more accepted
everywhere.
18:26 HT: So did you have to sneak around your friends with this? Like did you keep a secret for
as long as you could? Is that where you're going?
18:34 RS: Yes, I would meet my friends for lunch. I would talk about my friends but I would
take about them like a football buddy, even though I didn’t like sports and they knew I didn’t
like sports, but it was just, I didn't say “hey, I went out with Joe last night and we had a great

�time in the bed.” I just said “so and so is my good friend,” and sometimes they would see me
with that person in the hall or whatever. And so I think that's how I kinda got outed out of myself
with my friends showing up at my work and seeing us together. And I didn't have a girlfriend,
didn't have a wife, didn't have all the things that other folks that are straight have, so that was the
only thing that I can think that would matter.
19:18 HT: So did you ever, you were saying that eventually they just figured it out, did you ever
have a specific instance of coming out to your friends or coworkers or anything like that?
19:29 RS: Not really. The ones that gave me the impression they knew either told me they knew
and then I could share more with them and we got closer and better friends. I just felt like the
ones that kept it hidden that knew, if they didn't change their relationship with me that was fine.
As I got older it got to be easier to tell people who I was and what I was because I really didn't
care what they thought. I had a friend that was rather religious that moved to Kentucky and it
was several months after Facebook started up that I friended her because I said she's gonna see
all this gay stuff, well then I finally friended her because somebody said she lives that far away
she's not seeing you she's not gonna do anything to out you because you're already out here in
town, so friend her, so I did friend her, and she'll comment on a couple things that I say but I
don't know that she really likes or shares any gay things that I do. It's not that she doesn't accept
me as me but she's maybe not for the cause so to speak.
20:35 HT: definitely. Alright, we're gonna change themes a little bit, can you tell us about the
concept of cruising, and what kind of cruising has gone on or went on in Roanoke?
20:47 RS: Well, as I mentioned earlier there was that area called the Butcher Block and they had
one in Richmond too but that didn't do well for me because I went by there and I couldn't tell the
folks that were cruising and the ones that were people coming out of the library. Here in
Roanoke, the area [the Butcher Block], the guys were younger, they were attractive, and usually
stood singly in the block as opposed to congregating in a group because a person’s more apt to
stop and talk to one person than a group. It was a very exciting time, but you picked up someone
and you didn't know if they were gonna hurt you, if they were gonna blackmail you, you didn't
know if they were I don't know whatever, or if it would be a fun time. Of course it always cost
money, they weren't out there doing it for free and I'd rather pay someone that I'm attracted to,
than have sex with someone that I'm not attracted to who's gonna give it up for free. Because the
whole idea of sex is enjoying yourself and if you're not enjoying the body that you're with why
have it? Now with relationships it's a little different. I've had relationships where I was initially
attracted to them and then if they got chubby, lost weight, or if they changed I was still in love
with them because I knew them back when I was attracted to them and I got to love their inside
as well as their outside.
The other part of cruising is people hear the term “gaydar” and it is a real thing, it's kind of like a
woman's intuition, it's something that some gay people have. I've noticed being with the
[Roanoke] Diversity Center that a lot of folks don't have that and don't know what it is, but you'll
look around a room and you’ll see someone and if they're interested and looking back they'll
look at you at just a little different way. It's kind of like, I kind of look at it or equate it to the
cartoons where the cat’s looking at the mouse and you see the cat’s eyes and it turns the mouse

�into a little dinner. You can just tell that person is attracted to you, and so you act on that.
Because back before recent times you would see people in a bar, a straight bar or a gay bar, if
you went up to them you wouldn't know if they were gay or straight, whether they would beat
you up or whatever for approaching them because a lot of them have anger issues and think if
they're approached by a gay person that you’re thinking they're gay and they don't want that to
intrude on their manhood and it just causes problems. The Park on the other hand has become
more straight clientele than gay so you really have to watch and just a little side note about that
while I'm yakking, you go in there sometimes and there’s a guy and a girl and they're in a gay bar
dancing because it's great music and great fun but the guy’s got his shirt off. Is he trying to
attract the girl or is he showing off for the gay guys? I always thought that was weird. And it
looks like, if you're a gay guy and you see two gay guys dancing and they're not together as a
relationship you might walk by the guy and touch him somewhere where his shirt’s off and it
seems like the girl would want her guy to keep his shirt on so that it wouldn't cause issues, but I
just thought that was odd and thought I'd throw that in.
24:00 HT: [laughing] That's totally fine. Was there cruising without money without having to
pay for it? Because it was hard to find other people around?
24:10 RS: There were other places, the parks were one of them. Highland Park was one of the
biggest; Wasena park was the other one. Just about any park in any state becomes kind of a
cruising area. You go in after dark, you just walk around. People would be behind trees, they'll
be looking, they'll be standing, and it's different from just people in the park who would be
laying out on a blanket or whatever. You could tell that they are available or they'd be looking
for things. And again it's that scary thing where you don't know if it's somebody that's gonna hurt
you or it's an undercover cop or whatever. I used to always go through and if I saw the same
person repeatedly, then that's who I might take a chance with, but most of those things were free
more or less. There were some hustler people who'd hang out in the parks, and didn't hang out on
the block. That kinda went away because the cops cracked down on that. They were arresting
these guys in the park because a lot of them were homeless or on drugs or whatever and when
they couldn't provide ID or have a car there then the police would take them in and that kinda
cleared up the parks. So that the cruising thing in itself unless you go to places like The Park or
other gay friendly restaurants, you can't find gay people cruising in public hanging out and
wanting sex. You can't find those as much as you could twenty years ago.
25:41 HT: definitely. Do you have anything else to add about cruising that you could think of,
any stories?
25:57 RS: Um, only one. I've always cared about people and I picked up this one person one
night and drove from downtown Roanoke to Salem where I lived, and my mom and dad were off
at the Moose Lodge or somewhere so I had the house to myself. So we went in and the guy laid
down on the bed and he had this strange look on his face and I said “have you ever done this
before?” and he said “no, this is my first time,” and I said “why're you doing it now?” He said “I
need the money,” I said “are you gay?” He said “no, I just need the money,” I said “get up, let's
go.” I got back in the car with him, actually he put his clothes on cause we had gotten that far,
and we got in the car, I drove him back downtown where I let him off, I gave him the money I
was gonna give him anyway, and I told him good luck and not to do things he wasn't comfortable

8

�with, because I wouldn't make anybody do things that were gonna make them comfortable
because I know if they're uncomfortable I'm not going to have a good time either.
26:58 HT: Definitely. Are there any nonspecific gay community hangout spots now in Roanoke,
that you would..?
27:07 RS: Like gay friendly places?
27:08 HT: Yes.
27:09 RS: Well one is what they call the gay Macado's. It's downtown on Church Avenue,
especially the bar area, they accept you as you are, you can sit with your friend, you can hold
their hand, you might be able to give them a kiss here and there but they don't kick you out and
it's actually no under 18 you rarely see families in there so it's kind of… I'm not saying it's an
okay place to be gay and do obscenity things but you don't have kids in there and [you won’t] be
offending the families or whatever, if you hold somebody’s hand and they’re not aware of it.
That's one of them, lots others are that way. Back in 1988, I went to Billy’s Ritz, it's now the bar
called Billy's, and I sat at the bar with my brand new significant other I had just met that night
and we held hands hiding under the bar and it wasn't winter time so we had no coats to cover our
hands up. So we sat there at a straight bar holding hands, and that was kinda neat but you're
always looking over your shoulder to see if anyone was gonna see and make it a bad night for
you. But a lot of bars now are gay friendly simply because they know there are so many of us.
They know that a lot of us have a lot of money, and they don't want that money to go to some
other bar.
28:38 HT: Definitely. Well, what would happen in previous times, like not now, if you were
caught holding hands with another man or out in public?
29:04 RS: I don't know that it ever happened to me. I had a guy that I was in love with, that his
boyfriend, they broke up, and his boyfriend was hanging around me at a thing we have here in
Roanoke called First Friday's. And we went to first Friday's, I think they allow you five beers,
we drank the five beers, we went to Subway we had dinner, and up Salem Avenue on the way to
Backstreet he held my hand, and I said “Chuck,” I said, “you can hold anything I have at any
time but not my hand going up Salem Avenue because I didn't want any trouble from folks
driving by.” I would walk on some occasions from my house over near Wasena to downtown or
to another park over near Vinton and on the way people would yell out “faggot this” and “faggot
that” but they never stopped and it was mostly the way I was dressed because it was summer and
I had clothes on that maybe didn't fit my age because my age was a little older than the clothes I
wore and that's just kinda me. But yeah, those are the only things I run into, it's not really…

Part 2 (14:50)

�0:00 HT: So why don't you tell us about your first romantic experience, first physical experience,
first experiences?
0:08 RS: Okay, the first one that happened was when I went to Richmond. I'd gone to Richmond
from Roanoke visiting, and I went to Richmond a different way. I used to go up [Interstate] 81
and 64 and I went up [Routes] 360, 460, one of those, I think 460 turns into 360 once you get to
Richmond. Anyway, it popped me out over next to that Carilion, Caroline monument, that World
War II monument [the Virginia War Memorial Carillon]. And I pulled up and I walked the
length of this field toward the monument and when I got there this guy on a bicycle rode by me
and immediately did a full circle and came back and parked his bike. And I went up the steps
around the back of the monument, and he went around the back of the monument and we got into
this little area and things happened. And I was so shocked, that night I was supposed to go to
work at 11 and this happened around 9:30 or so and I went home and I fell down on the bed and I
just said, “what happened?” and I wasn't ashamed of it. I was shocked and happy but I wound up
being a half hour late to work. The very next week I went back to this park, and this monument
area, and met this guy and we just started talking. And I get nervous and I wanted some water so
he said there's a fountain right over there but there’s a trick to it, so he takes me over to the
fountain, pushes the thing with his foot and the water came up like a little trickle and he put his
finger under it a certain way and it shot up about a foot and I was able to drink. And I thought
that was kind of romantic that he let me have some water and did that for me. I wound up going
home with him and we did some things I had never done and he didn't know it was my first time
and he turned NPR radio on and at night they do this space music thing. And I just laid there all
night again, kind of in awe, “what is going on? what am I doing?” and not so much in I shouldn't
be doing it but that I was 26 or 27 years old and these are things I had been missing out on in my
life. Because I was shy. I didn't approach people they didn't approach me because I don't look
gay most of the time, and the guy went on to sleep. I stayed awake all night listening to music
and then he got up and went to work and then I left. The only odd thing about that was, I wore a
necklace that had my senior key on it, I guess our logo or whatever on it for our school, and I had
to go back to his house a week later and ask him where my necklace was, cause I left it on his
dresser.
Anyway, I got that and we were friends for awhile and the cop that I mentioned, the cop /
security guard I met, I talked to him [the new Richmond boyfriend] about it because I said “what
can I do about this?” and I wound up going to a phone that wasn't at my house it was at Toys R
Us and called the Richmond police, and I said my friend is a cop for another county and he said
he kills people and I’m worried that he’s going to kill my friend and they said “we’ll come by
and see you and drop off some things so that you can record some phone calls,” because he
called me all the time and would talk about the stuff and “we’ll get some tapes on him.” So they
brought the tapes, and I think I’m getting off the question for a second but this is a part of the
deal here, so it involved the significant other and the cop and the same people where he broke the
door into my house that I spoke about earlier. So the cops came. We had a phone, a huge phone
with a receiver, that you pick up and it had a round part for the ear and a round part for your
mouth and they put this round ring on the mouthpiece and a wire going to a tape recorder, a
cassette recorder, and when he called I cut it on and we talked, sometimes for an hour, and he
would tell me all the things he had done. At one point he had worked at Kings Dominion off
duty—well kind of an overtime police position—and a cute guy had come into the office and

10

�wanted some hot chocolate, well he supposedly put some kind of powder in the hot chocolate,
Drain-o or whatever, and then he sat down with the guy while he drank the hot chocolate and
enjoyed it when the guy's nose started bleeding and stuff, and they had to call the ambulance for
the guy, because he was just a sadistic cretan freak. So that’s why I went and had the Richmond
police look into him. They brought me the items to record him. I recorded about 10 or 15 hours
of tape, and then nothing. They didn’t follow up with me.
They didn’t do anything, and so I told my, the guy I was [seeing], I guess I was in love with him.
I told my guy about the crazy cop, and don’t be alone with him, he wants to kill you, he puts
people in plots at his mom’s farm. I said do not go anywhere unless it’s a restaurant. The guy
promised the guy, the cop promised guy powder or whatever, and he went out with him. I came
home from my job—[as a] currier from Richmond to Winchester—one night and both of them
were sitting on my step outside. And he said, my friend said, “Hey, Rodger, I told him you were
playing ‘Starsky and Hutch’ with him, I told him about the cops”,” and so I almost went through
the floor because I said this could kill me. He said “we need to talk. You betrayed me and we
need to go somewhere and talk,” and I said “you stay out here and let me go change and we’ll go
to a restaurant.” I said “I don’t trust you in private.” So I changed my clothes and we went to the
mall to a restaurant and talked and he said “why did you turn me in to the police,” and I said
“because you were going to kill my friend and anybody that hurts someone that I love or care
about aren’t going to get away with it.” So he said “I want all the tapes and I want the machine
and I want everything you have that they gave you.” So I gave it to them and the police, I called
them for more tapes at one point. They never did come back and bring me more tapes prior to
that I never heard from them to say, “why, where's the equipment? we came to get the
equipment,” it's almost like he took it back to them. He was almost beyond reproach, I guess,
because of who he knew and the fact that he was a cop because the detectives never came back
and asked me anything about it.
Over the years I moved back to Roanoke because of him breaking into the door that day, and I
moved back to Roanoke, my friend came to visit a couple of times and I touched base with him.
A couple of years ago he was going from Connecticut down to see his father I believe in Florida
and he passed through and I met him at the bus station just to say hi and he was still alive so if
anything else maybe I brought so much attention to the fact that this supposedly nobody who was
a hustler would've been noticed if he was killed and that may have saved his life, hopefully. So
that was just one other thing.
Going towards your original question about my sexual experiences, the scariest one I was with
besides this crazy cop guy, I met him on Craigslist and he worked at a school and he was a
janitor or whatever and I met him around 7 or 8 o'clock at night. We went into the boiler room
and the room was completely empty. There was a shelf on the side, and the only thing on the
shelf was a screwdriver. And then he said “can I tie this little frilly thing around your eyes and
kind of blindfold you and tie your hands behind your back?” He said “I kinda enjoy that.” I said
“okay.” Well when he tied my hands I could get loose, it wasn't really really tight, and then he
put the thing around my eyes, and then we he put the thing around my eyes the last thing I saw
was that screwdriver on the table with no other tools, nothing else really in the room, so I'm
sitting there and he's making noises and movement and everything but he's not touching me and
I'm thinking “is he gonna take this screwdriver and ram it somewhere?” and so after like 5 or 10

11

�minutes of my brain going crazy I lifted up the little cloth he had around my eyes and he did not
have the screwdriver thank goodness but he was wearing a teddy. So I think he was embarrassed
that he was in women's clothing and that's how he wanted the whole thing to go about, but I was
afraid of the screwdriver and I got freaked out. And I said “I'm sorry I can't do this, but it hasn't
nothing to do with you being in a teddy.” Anyway that was the weirdest thing, I guess. There's
several weird things, but that another one of them.
8:50 HT: Could you explain what a teddy is?
8:52 RS: it's an almost frilly, see-through, lacy thing that women wear to entice their husbands
sexually I guess. Being gay I don't know [laughs]
9:05 HT: definitely. Earlier you said something about looking gay, could you explain what
looking gay was back then? What that entailed?
9:15 RS: well some folks have a voice that's rather gay, mine’s kinda deep. I would wear ties to
work and go to Kmart and they'd ask me if I worked there. I had a mustache back then, my hair
was a little darker, most people thought I was a cop. So I just didn't look the part of a gay person
and again I don't know what that is. These days it's a little more rainbow. I have a rainbow tattoo
now, so depending on what kind of shirt I wear that's exposed, but, you know, I don't hide it. So
it's just an overall look, a little feminine, a little prancy, or the term they used back in the day was
flaming. And you could just tell folks, certain folks were gay, some couldn't hide it. Some didn't
want to hide it. And a lot of the times because they couldn't hide it or wouldn't hide that's what
got them beat up or bullied in school and in public.
10:10 HT: was there any like specific clothing that you would delegate as looking gay back then?
10:16 RS: very short shorts, tank tops, and short shorts on older guys, that was the main thing.
Sometimes they would do bandanas, in fact back when I was first learning about things in the
‘60s and ‘70s there was a culture of bandanas or they would call them handkerchiefs. If you put
them on one side of your pocket it meant one thing, if you put them on the right side of your
back pocket it meant another thing. Colors meant different things: which you were into, what
you did. That kind of faded away over the years because, I don't know, folks just didn't want to
advertise or whatever. But those were prevalent in the bars really before I started going to the
bars. But it was heavily into the porn that I used to watch back then, and the books that I would
read. It was kind of like the secret message in case the gaydar would work but that was letting
the person know what you wanted to do, and that way you wouldn't wind up getting together and
not be compatible in the bed or have to waste your night being with one guy thinking you were
going to get one thing and he was into something else. I kinda wish that would come back
because that was, it's kind of like saying “hi, I'm gay. I like to do blah blah blah,” instead of
having to waste time and money and a night with a guy that's not going to do the blah blah blah.
11:31 HT: definitely. So you were talking about identifiers earlier, like the bandanas and stuff,
do you remember any specific ones, any specific?
11:42RS: Like what the colors meant?

12

�11:43 HT: Yeah
11:45 RS: well, initially I thought it was just 3 or 4 but it wound up being like 25. They had the
solid colors, they had… I don’t know if they had multiple color bandanas back then. But it was
mostly where you put them, you put them in your back pocket if you were receiver of sexual
things, and the left pocket if you were a giver of sexual things. And I may have those reversed. I
think you put them in front pockets for certain other things and we have discussions at the
[Roanoke] Diversity Center today. We don't put labels on ourselves because most folks don't like
a label. But we kind of have to label ourselves in order for other folks to know… well, I like to
know if someone is gay or not because I'm not gonna waste time trying to see if they want to
date me if they're straight or if they're pansexual who are folks that are attracted by people's
personalities and other things about them besides their looks. There are panromantic, pansexual,
gender fluid. There are all kinds of things now. So instead of us being men and women that have
sex with men having men and women having women or whatever, we're just human beings and
sexual beings and we have sex with whoever attracts us, and that's why I think why people are
trying to get away from the labels. I saw just the other day on a website there's some dog tags
you can get and there's one for gay, transgender, gender fluid, this that and the other, and you can
combine them, put two on thing. And that kind of gives a signal once folks get to know what
these things mean and let folks know it's kind of like the hanky situation only its in necklace
form and you just wear those to be yourself and identify… make your sexual identity more of an
obvious thing.
13:42 HT: Okay. So you can talk about from the past or the present, what kind of gay lingo… is
there any kind of gay lingo that you have used, have been exposed to?
13:59 RS: Well, yes, you notice it a lot on the gay [web]sites now. They wanna know if you're
circumcised or not circumcised and they just shorten it to “cut” and “uncut” which is kind of
gross. But anyway, those are some of the things that come to mind right off. None are really
flooding my brain at this second, but I think the question was kind of a shock, but I guess that's it
for this moment unless something comes to me.
14:34 HT: definitely. So we’re gonna change a little bit, going…
[Rodger wanted to stop and clarify how descriptive he could be with his responses.]

Part 3 (13:56)
0:00 HT: So earlier you mentioned pornography. So could you tell us before the Internet and
multi-media things like that, how this came about or how you went about accessing [it]?
0:13 RS: well, I took recent trips to D.C. When I was in Richmond, it was only a two hour drive
[to D.C.], so I would go up there a lot and buy magazines in bookstores and take them home and
we looked at a magazines not for entertainment but I actually get to see the guys that I liked
without the shirts that I liked to see and didn't have to approach anybody and say “hey can you
13

�take your shirt off?” so that was a fun thing to do. The other thing that was available was what
they called bookstores. At one point they would have books like novels around the front of the
store and so that if anyone walked in they could get a novel, and it was a bookstore, but really
what it was was a back room. You would get change from the guy at the counter and go back and
put quarters in a little—you would go in a little booth, and there was a little machine there—and
you would put quarters in. You’d get three choices of videos and you could sit there and watch
videos in a little booth by yourself or with a friend and do whatever. They didn't encourage being
with a friend but you could sneak them in there. As time grew on the regular books disappeared
and it got replaced by actual VHS videos tapes that you could rent from the folks. It was kind of
like the porn Blockbuster. Folks remember back in the Blockbuster days. You had a
membership, you could rent those movies bring ‘em back in two or three days and that's how you
accessed porn back then.
Those places still exist and they've changed drastically. At some point the police made them
change the doors. They would chop them off so that were just three or four foot doors. You could
see people's feet. You could see two people in there or whatever, so it kind of got really hard to
be gay, and a lot of times when you meet a stranger you wouldn't want to take them home
because you didn't know if they were gonna come back later, steal or kill you whatever. So, they
were safe in one way but the cities wanted to crack down on them. But you go to places like
Cleveland and in D.C. and there's bathhouses and they're legal and then you go in, you get your
locker, you get naked, and you do whatever and you do whatever and you leave. I've been to one
in Cleveland, a friend of mine took me there. He lived there and I went up there to visit him and
it was right down the street. I used to go here to the bookstores and I would go “wow, I'm old,
they're old. I'm not attracted to an older person.” So when I went to Cleveland to the bath house I
kinda went “okay, I'm here. I'm old, he's old, he's old, he's old. The only difference is they're
naked,” so it really didn't help me a lot with the bathhouse, but they had those things going on
and they're an outlet for a lot of folks. They're usually open 24 hours. You pay one fee and you
can stay for a day or two or whatever. I don't think there's a lot of food so it's kind of not healthy,
maybe a snack machine or whatever so if you were in there too long you'd need nourishment
besides just a bag of chips. But that's the places that we went and the things that we did. Some
people still do those things. Anonymous sex is something people enjoy because they don't come
along with the baggage of a relationship or someone hanging around you that you're not attracted
to. I knew a person that would go and have sex with anybody and anybody because they, that's
what turned them on, being with someone they didn't know attracted them. I was always, “they
had to look good,” I had to be attracted to them. So that made me the odd person.
3:44 HT: That's great. So we do understand that you are a gay man. Have you ever had an
experience with women?
3:52 RS: I have. I met a guy in Richmond when I just moved up there. He was a high school kid
and I really fell for him and moved to his side of town over a year or so because I really wanted
to be around him. He worked in my shop, and of course being underage, I couldn't do anything,
and he got really close to me. His father had left his mother, his mother worked second shift, he
had a key to my house and we palled around together. And we were together for two years as
pals, and when I told him I was gay he stayed away. I guess that could be a little slogan, “tell em
you're gay, they'll stay away,” but he was one of my closest friends, and then I came back to

14

�Roanoke in 1984 and I was driving around the block—the area that I had mentioned earlier—and
saw a guy that resembled this guy in Richmond except he was taller, and he had his shirt
unbuttoned and he just looked almost like that guy and I'm going “oh boy, here's the guy that I've
liked for years and here's one that is selling it here to me.” So I pulled over. I gave him my phone
number because I was busy that night. He called me in a week, we had a month or two
relationship, and a 15-year friendship. And we're sexually over the 15 years and he passed away
5 or 10 years ago. But when I found out that he would not… I tried everything I could to make
him like me and love me but I found out you can't make people love you and people are gonna
love or like you if they want to, and he kinda liked my money, he liked what I did for his kids
and his ex wife, and he loved me in his own way, but he didn't love me in the way I wanted to be
loved by him. And at one point I said if I can't have him I'll go straight. And I worked at Mill
Mountain Theatre box office and there was a stage manager that kind of liked me at a party and
we kind of had a 3 month relationship and we had sex frequently. I was still having sex with him
on the side, and she wanted to get married. I said “if you're still talking to me in 5 years we'll get
married,” because I figured in 5 years she'd find out one way or the other that I was gay, but
again it comes back to sexual beings. It was fun having sex with her because sex is just a thing,
but I was more attracted to guys. And I remember Star Wars being on TV, years after it was out
at the theaters, and she wanted to have sex so we're sitting there on the couch and she's having
sex with me on the couch and I'm looking at Star Wars because she wasn't a guy so that's another
reason, another way I knew I was gay, and that I liked guys. But we broke up when she moved
away and I wrote her a letter telling her the truth. So she found out, kind of a bad way, but she
found out I was gay, and that kinda cleared my conscience of it anyway, but she was a sweet girl,
and that lasted three months. She's been the only one. I'm close with girls but I don't have sex
with girls.
6:49 HT: Definitely. Could you tell us a little about your role during the AIDS epidemic, like
during the time it was going on, did anything happen to you? Have you experienced anything?
7:05 RS: Well it was one of those things, kind of like murder I guess, because it only happened
to other people. You saw it on the news. You saw Magic Johnson, Ryan White. You didn't know
anybody in Roanoke that had it so you just went and did whatever you did, and then all of a
sudden I had friends that were HIV positive. I started losing friends that were HIV positive. I
became safer in bed and folks say, “I've been tested. I was tested last week and I'm negative,” but
you don't know if that's the truth. You have to be safe with everyone. You can't really take their
word, because if they had sex with anyone after they were negative then they could be positive
and it may not show up for six months. So I treat everyone I'm with as if they are [HIV] positive,
not in a negative way but just to make sure that they don't get anything from me, if i have it if
hasn't come out yet. And I don't get anything from them in case they don't know one they're lying
about it. Because my thing is, because I'm not the most beautiful boy in the room, that if I say
that if I were HIV positive, they would go away because a lot of people have a phobia about that.
And one of the things that I try to bring up during our events at the [Roanoke] Diversity Center is
that HIV is not the only creature out there, and you gotta be careful with all diseases because
right now, syphilis is running rampant in Roanoke and a lot of men of color are on the DL or
“down low,” so they're hiding things, and them and some white folks are spreading it with their
straight partners because a lot of folks are bisexual or whatever. Like I said we're human beings,

15

�we're sexual beings, and we're going to have sex with whoever we're attracted to at any given
moment or after any certain amount of glasses of wine or liquor.
9:09 HT: [laughing] Definitely. So you mentioned the Diversity Center, could you tell us a little
bit about that?
9:18 RS: Well, I've been with the [Roanoke] Diversity Center a little over two years. I came in
quite by accident, didn't know it existed, until the person that was the board chair at the time,
Frank House, mentioned to me in a meeting that I would be a good candidate for the board
because of the things we had been talking about in a group that I was with or in. And I told him
I'm disabled and I have some health issues that I just like to sit around, my favorite thing is
sitting around, the less I do the more I like it. I never get bored of doing nothing, doing nothing is
my favorite thing. So I said my head-part really wants to do it, my body I don't know if I can do
it or if it will hold up. I said but I'll let you know. So he went away and a week or so went by and
I'm in the shower washing what little hair I have and I thought “who has ever asked me to be on
the Board of Directors?” I said “nobody.” I said “when are they gonna ask me again, at 58 [years
old]? Probably nobody.” So I said “let me call me Frank, and see when the next meeting is,” and
I did. And I went to the meeting and gave them my spiel of who I was and what I was doing and
they took a vote and voted me in as a Board Member at large. And when I joined I got cards of
course that said I was with the Diversity Center and I went out in the community, mostly The
Park, and I was giving my cards out to everybody to let them know about the Diversity Center
because we would have events and nobody would come. Partly because no one knew we were
here. Like me. I’ve been here all my life, I didn't know they were here, and they'd been here a
couple years when I found out about them. So I was kind of doing a liaison thing after I joined
because I was so excited I was on the Board of Directors with an organization that I thought was
doing great things. And then an opportunity came up that I could be the Liaison for the Diversity
Center and they again voted to have me do that. I got new cards that said Liaison. I went back
out to the community, and did the same thing. And over the years as Liaison I was always fair,
approachable, and friendly to folks, inviting them to the Diversity Center and just about six
months ago, Frank, the chair, decided he was going to step down because his partner was having
health issues. And they were both on the Board of Directors, one was chair and one was vicechair, so I started kind of shadowing Frank. Learning what it took to run the center and then on
February 16th [2016] the board took a vote between me and a few other folks and I became
Board Chair. Since then I’ve changed things up a little bit. We had a film group that showed
films every Sunday. And I said, “well if I'm taking it over and I do the same things as before it's
going to be the same thing and no one's going to know anything has changed.” So I changed it to
the Rainbow Cinema, we had theme months. We have had our film attendance grow from none
on some days to 12 or 15 people depending on the film. We have the Mama Mia sing-along
every year. We watch the ABBA movie. The more time goes by the more people are coming in.
We used to have Rainbow Chats with one or two people sometimes just board members. The last
one last week had 14 folks so, we're kind of outgrowing our space and all for the better. And
[we] are looking for a space downtown hopefully in the next few months or so, we'll be
downtown, be more visible, and have a bigger and better things to have for folks to come and
enjoy.

16

�13:00 HT: definitely. So is there anything else you'd like to share with us, any stories, anything
we haven't asked you?
13:09 RS: Well, not really, maybe a promotion of such. The Diversity Center has the only
diversity camp in the state of Virginia. In fact, Josh Olinger on our board, he came up with this
idea, and he heard from a person that was going to one of the camps that he worked, and said,
“we need a camp just for us.” So that’s where that idea came about…
[Rodger became emotional, so we chose to end the interview.]

Sound Check
[00:00:06] GR: Alright, this is Gregory Rosenthal and I'm here with Peter Thornhill.
[00:00:10] PT: Hello. How are you?
[00:00:12] GR: Good. And today is February 22nd, 2016 and we're sitting in Peter's home in,
what is this, Raleigh Court or Southwest?
[00:00:23] PR: Raleigh Court.
[00:00:24] GR: Okay, this is just a formality to make sure that the people listening to this
understand the context of the conversation. And this is an interview for the Southwest Virginia
LGBTQ History Project: Oral History Initiative. So Peter, if you would like to just say your
name and where you grew up and delve a little bit into your early childhood.
[00:00:50] PT: I'd be happy to. Peter Thornhill. I grew up in the big city of Lynchburg, Virginia.
Lynchburg is technically the buckle of the bible belt with huge influences like Jerry Falwell, and
just very South, Baptist, church-going, god-fearing people. So, growing up in Lynchburg being
gay was challenging... humorous... and made for the need to drive to Roanoke quite a necessity.
[00:01:31] GR: So you grew up in the ‘50s or early ‘60s?
[00:01:35] PT: I was born in '58. So, coming out was never an issue for me, I've always been out,
so I don't know what that really means to “come out.” I've always been gay, never had a question
of whether I wasn't gay, but living in Lynchburg was a challenging time. Jerry Falwell had a hold
on the city and if you were anything other than just this right-wing Christian, black or white, you
were in a different era, it was a different time.
[00:02:12] GR: So what do you mean by you always knew you were gay, and you never came
out? Like, when you were three,when you were five, when you were seven? What was that like?
Did you have a concept of your sexuality?

	&#13;  

2	&#13;  

�[00:02:27] PT: Absolutely. Never had the need or desire to be with a woman. It wasn't part of my
makeup. I've always been gay. I knew at a young age my sexual orientation, so it wasn't a
struggle to divulge it to anyone, because it was there, and everyone knew. It wasn't talked
about... but I have cousins that were gay, so again the genetic—rearing versus genetic issue—
you can go either way with that. So we always knew. In the church it wasn't talked about but in
private it was very much discussed.
[00:03:14] GR: Your parents, did they express their awareness of that to you?
[00:03:22] PT: [Bill] Clinton's “Don't ask, don't tell” comes to mind to me. Everyone knew but
you just, there were certain areas you didn't talk about with your parents. Parents were never
your friends back in that age. You revered your parents. You were deathly afraid of them, and so
you didn't discuss sexuality, that was absolutely taboo, whether you were gay or straight, you
didn't discuss that with your parents. You discussed doing your homework but you didn't discuss
your sexuality, that was just never brought up, it was very much a taboo subject. And then being
raised in the church, you weren't having sex anyways, so why even discuss it. Although
you were, you still would never discuss it.
[00:04:11] GR: What denomination were you raised?
[00:04:13] PT: Southern Baptist all the way. I taught Sunday school, and was a deacon in the
church, a junior deacon back then because I was younger. But yeah, raised in the church
absolutely. Sang in the choir. So yes, that whole Southern Baptist thing.
[00:04:30] GR What was school like? Did you go to public school or private?
[00:04:33] PT: Oh, school was fun. I attended public school until 8th grade and then decided on
my own, I was a very forward child—they called you fast if you were anything but the norm
back then, you were fast. So I was a fast child. I think they call it precocious these days—… But
I said to my Mom, “I am not going to public school. I will do anything, but I will not to go to
public school.” So I applied to a private school, Virginia Episcopal School...for boys...a little
humor there… and I decided I wanted to go to public school no more, I wanted to go to private
school. I actually went to public school for one day in 9th grade, Dunbar High School, because
my scholarship to VES [Virginia Episcopal School] had not come through yet and public school
started before private school, and so I went to public school, waiting for my scholarship to come
through, literally praying it would come through. And I will never forget, I had a 7th period
because I was an accelerated student, and the gym teacher told the whole class, I will never
forget this day, “I don't want to catch you fucking in the showers.” Not just to me, but to the
entire class. I got home that day and I told my mom, "I'm not going back, I'm just not doing it."
And a couple days later the letter came, [saying] “You're accepted, your scholarship is intact,”
and so I went to private school.
[00:06:14] GR: And so when you were in the Lynchburg public schools, up until the first day of
9th grade, did you experience bullying? Or did you feel like people accepted you?

	&#13;  

3	&#13;  

�[00:06:28] PT: Well it's always different, and, I heard several times in my childhood, "So what
are you?" and I just finally reserved to the fact of saying, "I'm human." So in this kind of a
mixed-culture atmosphere you were somewhat shunned by the African American community
because you were light skinned and then you weren't white so you kind of... it was an odd place
to fit in or not fit in. My mother worked for extremely wealthy people so I was raised in the
projects in Lynchburg called Dearington. It was the first projects for low-income housing so
there I was, this black kid in the ghetto having indoor tennis lessons because my mom worked
for the people who owned the indoor tennis facility. So I had a very mixed childhood. All of my
friends went to public school but I went to private school so I didn't see them for eight hours a
day, except on weekends, so TV [television] was my friend. I learned to speak, learned to
understand, through television. Mom worked nine to nine, Monday through Friday, and nine to
five on Saturday, so my brother and I were latchkey kids. We never said, "Where's Mom?
Where's Mom?" Mom was working, it wasn't an option. Mom worked her butt off. And so, we
watched television and that was our rearing a lot because Mom was working. So that was my
early childhood. [It] was TV. “Dark Shadows” was one of my favorites.
[00:08:18] GR: Yeah, in the ‘60s.
[00:08:19] PT: Oh absolutely! Angelique [laughter]. I loved her.
[00:08:25] GR: I was thinking, when you were in the public schools, elementary school and
middle school, you were probably there right around the time of integration. Did that happen
when you were there?
[00:08:34] PT: Yes, sixth grade. It happened in Lynchburg and we heard these wild stories from
Boston, killings and things and we're thinking “what are they doing?” It was just another day for
us in Lynchburg. The white kids came to our school, Dearington Elementary. And so that was
the first integration, in sixth grade. And then Junior High was like an everyday occurrence, we
got bussed, because the junior high was across town in the white section. But you know, I was
president of that school, Lakewood Junior High, for many years. [Laughs]
[00:09:17] GR: So tell me about the private high school you went to... that would have been in
the ‘70s?
[00:09:21] PT: Exactly, there were about 350 students, of which two were African American out
of the entire student body. So the identity thing still just was never really there. I was all-state in
track, all-state in tennis, letterman. And some of the guys who knew that I was gay, it bothered
some of them, because you know “there's the gay guy, and he's beating our asses and he's
winning medals and trophies and we're not”... so there were a few who got a little upset. There
was some racism as well. I remember one guy said one day, "So what are you doing here?" And
never once did I ever say what my parents didn't do. I said “my mother’s a maid, my father’s a
janitor,” and I was extremely proud of that because “hey, here I am, deal with me.” And I think it
was a matter of pride that I did so well in sports. I was determined to be number one. And
sometimes I was, so it helped.

	&#13;  

4	&#13;  

�[00:10:35] GR: Would you say you were out in high school? Or what did it mean, or like you
keep saying you knew you were gay, [so] what did that mean to know you were gay? Was it a
place where you could have a relationship with another man?
[00:10:50] PT: “Relationship” I think is a little too severe of a word. In your teens, you didn't
have a relationship, you had... I'll just say you had a release. But you never had a boyfriend. I
was too young for that to happen. I wouldn't have known what that was. But were there
encounters? Absolutely. To say there weren't would be not the truth. You had 350 boys in their
pubescent years, of course it’s going to happen. Was it talked about? People knew what was
going on, but you never really discussed it. Did it happen? Absolutely.
[00:11:34] GR: This school was in Lynchburg?
[00:11:35] PT: Yes.
[00:11:37] GR: So it was a day school, it wasn't a boarding school...
[00:11:38] PT: It was boarding and day school, yes.
[00:11:41] GR: And your experience was both? Or one?
[00:11:44] PT: No, I was a... they called the day students “squatters,” so the boardings and the
squatters. I was a day student because the boardings [were the ones who] lived there. But there
were some extremely wealthy ambassador’s sons, lawyers and doctors, some very wealthy kids,
went there... and you had little old me, the kid from the projects. [laughs]
[00:12:08] GR: What were your feelings about religion at the time? Did you find... did you feel
like it was in conflict with your sexuality, with your identity? Because you said you taught
Sunday school...
[00:12:20] PT: Yes
[00:12:21] GR: Or did they work together for you? Or did you feel like there was a conflict
between the two?
[00:12:25] PT: Never a conflict. I kept those two parts of my lives absolutely separate. And I was
very good at that. I never had the inkling to say, “God is going to frown upon you because you're
gay”... there were others saying it, but I was very strong, pig-headed, independent in my
thoughts, that it wasn't part of my life. I of course knew who God was, he created the heavens
and the earth, but he wasn't a mean god, he was an understanding and loving god. No fire and
brimstone, “you're going to go to hell for anything”... [rather] “be good and treat people well and
everything will fall into place.” My grandmother, my dad’s mom, I see her in her uniform from
church. She was a very god-fearing woman, but still not fire and brimstone, we weren't raised
that way.
[00:13:29] GR: So you graduated from high school in '76?

	&#13;  

5	&#13;  

�[00:13:33] PT: '77
[00:13:34] GR: '77
[00:13:35] PT: Yes, '77, yes.
[00:13:37] GR: So that was quite a time to be in Lynchburg. I think '77 was when Anita Bryant's
campaign began.
[00:13:45] PT: Absolutely.
[00:13:46] GR: And [Jerry] Falwell and all those guys are really starting to get national attention.
So what was that moment like when you graduated? What kind of world were you then moving
into?
[00:13:56] PT: Well, I was living there until leaving an all-boy high school going to an all-boy
college. I went to Hampden-Sydney for a year so.... full scholarship, great... the somewhat gifted
kid, again from the ghetto, the projects, they were very very nice to me. They wanted me, or
needed me, somehow kind of played at those two things, they needed black kids and "Hey, here I
am!" Flunked out, lost my scholarship, because—and they actually did a study about me—it was
the kid who had never left home who led a very sheltered life, and then got to college and went
crazy. And I thought, " Oh, I don't have to go to class, you know I can play poker, watch the
Stooges, you know, I'm a grown up now. I'm on my own." And flunked out, lost my scholarship.
And my mother still has the little piece of paper from the newspaper, "Student wins scholarship,"
little piece of news from the Daily Advance. So she's kept that, still kind of goes... little guilt
trip... but everything's worked out fine.
[00:15:19] GR: So you were there for a year.
[00:15:20] PT: Yes
[00:15:21] GR: ‘77- ‘78, Partied hard it sounds like...
[00:15:26] PT: Oh in my class at [high school] graduation, there were about 45 guys in my class,
about half of us when to Hampden-Sydney and the other part went to UVA [University of
Virginia] and W&amp;L [Washington &amp; Lee] and that was pretty much it. So you were pretty much
almost required to go to one of those schools. And I got into JMU [James Madison University]
and should have gone to JMU. I look back now and I probably would have finished at JMU if I
had gone there, but no, I had to go to Hampden-Sydney. And my mother expected me to go
there. So, trying to please her was part of my life as well.
[00:16:07] GR: Did it attract you as an all-boys school? Or was that just sort of an irrelevant
fact?
[00:16:14] PT: It was like I never left high school. It was like, another day I woke up and I was
in another physical location but it was the same kind of guys, it was no transition from high

	&#13;  

6	&#13;  

�school to college. It was like I just woke up, and “hey, I’m going to class, same guys I went to
high school with right over there,” and the same type of guys: preppy, extremely well-mannered
southern boys, with a lot of money. And it was just like high school.
[00:16:52] GR: What do you think would have been different at JMU?
[00:16:55] PT: A more well rounded cultural experience, different kinds of people from all over
the world. So my surroundings would have been totally different. I wouldn't have been quite
such an enigma at JMU as I was at Hampden-Sydney. I was still kind of looked at like, "Hmm."
You know, because there weren't any African American kids there, maybe three or four? Out of
the whole college of eight hundred! So you know still like, "Wow, what's he doing here?" Not
from everyone, there were some very kind people who didn't even notice, didn't even care.
Again, played tennis, made the tennis team and did all that, and caused some ruffles there
because I was self-taught. I learned to play tennis at six years old and then had lessons because
we worked for some very wealthy people. It was never a dull moment at Hampden-Sydney.
There was always a party on fraternity row. I remember my first weekend drinking Green
Goddammits out of a trash can [laughs]. Yeah, grain alcohol, lime juice, and something else. It
was a very bad weekend... very bad weekend. Hung over for days.
[00:18:27] GR: What kind of career were you thinking of pursuing? Where were you thinking
you were going at that point?
[00:18:34] PT: Public Relations. I am a natural talker so I thought, "Oh, I need a job in PR."
Which probably meant an English degree... Journalism... something along that vein. So that's
where I was initially headed. I wanted to work at the UN [United Nations], that was another
dream when I was in high school.
[00:19:00] GR: So what happened when you dropped out of Hampden-Sydney, what was the
next… ? At that point, I know you told me before and we can get to that about going to The
Park, which would have been right around that time. When you were in high school or maybe
that first year of college, had you ever driven into Roanoke to be a part of the social scene there
or was that not yet on your radar screen?
[00:19:27] PT: Only after high school. It was a lot of freedom there. You know, being 18 [years
old] and out of high school that summer was a big awakening because I was an adult, I was out
of high school. Graduated, wow! So I could pretty much do whatever I wanted to do. Not really,
I was living at home still, so I couldn't do what I wanted to do. It was a dream. My mother was
still, "My house, my rules and you'll do as I say." And she still thinks that to this day, and she's
80 [years old]. [laughs] So after Hampden-Sydney I took a semester off, worked some odd jobs,
I think at a clothing store called Leggett. Now it's Belk, but back then it was Leggett. And then
went back to Ferrum [College] and graduated with an Associates [degree], went back to school.
Wasn't going to do it, but I had a very dear friend who said, "You need to go back to school. You
really need to buckle down and go back to school." So I did, got my associates two years later.
[00:20:40] GR: Do you remember when that was? Was that 1980? '79?

	&#13;  

7	&#13;  

�[00:20:45] PT: College was '81.
[00:20:46] GR: '81?
[00:20:48] PT: Right.
[00:20:51] GR: So you said, when you were still living at your mom's house after graduating
from high school, and I guess after Hampden-Sydney, too, did you move back home?
[00:21:02] PT: Exactly, yes. While I was at Ferrum I lived at home, too. I went to college that
first semester at Ferrum being in the boonies in Franklin County, I went home and said, "Mom,
I've gotta have a car. There's no way I can survive down there in the sticks without a car." So I
got this '69 Chevrolet Bel Aire four-door, gold, black interior, AM radio... no air conditioning! I
will never forget that car, and that was my first car. A lady my mom worked for sold it to mom
for a dollar. Ms. McClinton. Mom worked for her, and her husband was a doctor.
And I want to back track a little, growing up with my mom, who she worked for, some of the
most benevolent people, just kind and generous. We would get hand me downs because they
were re-doing their summer house, so there we were in the ghetto with this beautiful furniture
because they were very generous to my mother, and they still are. So my brother and I didn't
want for anything, and we were very privileged considering that my mother was a maid. And so
that helped shape our childhood too, because people were very kind to us. So we didn't see
racism, it just wasn't part of our lives, other that the occasional… and that, a lot came from the
black community. "What are you?" was a wild question for my brother and I. We'd just go,
"What do you mean? Our parents are black. What do you mean what are you?" Just had to do a
little backtrack there, to the upbringing.
[00:23:13] So then after Ferrum, was my first real job at a restaurant. Hence the drive back and
forth to Roanoke four nights a week. I had a boyfriend back then who was bar crazy, so we'd go
to Roanoke... Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, every week we made the trek on [Route]
460... knew it well... every week. Because Lynchburg didn't have bars. We would joke,
"Roanoke people are heathens, they have bars. We don't have bars in Lynchburg," you know. So
we had to go where the nightlife was, because there was no gay life in Lynchburg. And we
enjoyed it, it was a lot of fun to make that trek, wasn't fun coming home at two or three o'clock in
the morning [laughs] that was a long drive back after a few beers in the Bel Aire. So it was a
different time. In the interim of all the drives back and forth, a little bar opened in Bedford. Did
you know that? Some guys came down from New York City, and opened a little bar in Bedford.
It was "bring your own booze," it lasted about six months, maybe a year. The locals went up in
arms and literally closed it down. They protested, and it closed. But we thought, "We don't have
to drive all the way to Roanoke now! We can drive 20 miles to Bedford and go to a bar!" Didn't
last long. I can't even remember the name of the place, but it didn't last long.
[00:24:51] GR: And your boyfriend was also from Lynchburg? Or also lived in Lynchburg?

	&#13;  

8	&#13;  

�[00:24:56] PT: Yes, He lived in Lynchburg, as well. Actually he lived in Madison Heights,
which is hog town, which is right above Lynchburg. It's a little area called Madison Heights, but
still Amherst County, Lynchburg, yeah very close.
[00:25:13] GR: So you were in your twenties at that time, like early '80s...
[00:25:18] PT: Yes, loving life...and skinny [laughs] and I had hair! [laughs] Life was crazy.
[00:25:28] GR: Did you and another man ever go to bars in Lynchburg? Did you ever try that or
did you know that that was a “no go”? Or were there places that you could go that were maybe
mixed?
[00:25:43] PT: Not one. The nightlife in Lynchburg just did not exist. Our whole lives centered
around going to Roanoke. We knew we could dance, we could kiss, we could be a couple and
not have to worry about anything. It was a gay bar. Imagine that, a GAY bar. So nightlife in
Lynchburg may have existed, but I don't remember. I couldn't tell you a bar or anything in
Lynchburg at that time, I didn't do that, I worked... but then it was always, "What are we going to
wear to the bar tonight?" And that was a big question all the time, because you had to be
fashionable. So that was a big part of our lives every day, "What are you going to wear to the bar
tonight? Are we going? What time are we going to leave?" So that was our lives.
[00:26:32] GR: So how did you, if you recall, how did you become aware that was a gay
community in Roanoke? How did that get on your radar screen the first time?
[00:26:40] PT: We had heard stories. They were like, "You know where this bar is? You know
where this bar is?" Cause other friends had gone, a little bit older, and they had gone to these
bars, because they went to Tradewinds. That was before my time, but they had gone to the
Tradewinds. We had heard about it and then that closed and Murphy's opened and... The Last
Straw. So that's where we really started to go out were those two places, especially Murphy's
because Murphy's was a dance bar.
[00:27:13] GR: Tell me about Murphy's...
[00:27:14] PT: Oh it was fun. You'd walk in and there was a huge sign on the front door and it
was the ABC laws: "You can't serve no homosexuals, drug addicts, prostitutes..." and it was right
there at the door when you walked in. And we'd dance and Donna Summer was the deal. And the
owner of Murphy’s... we'd be cuddled up a little bit, and he would shine a light on you, a
flashlight, and he'd say, "You can do it in your car, but you're not gonna do it in here." So we'd
be hugging or maybe a kiss, but nothing past that. And so every night it would close... Last
Straw, Donna Summer would play, I'm sorry “Last Dance” by Donna Summer would play, and
you knew when he played that song Murphy's was closing. And so the song would go off and
he'd flip the lights up and it would be dead silence, and you knew, "Out." It was time to go home.
I don't remember any alcohol being served there, I don't remember that part of it at all...
definitely no food... maybe sodas, but I don't remember any alcohol then... but he had an ABC
license. Maybe he had beers, I just don't remember that part... I know we danced a lot. It was our
pressure valve, we used to just dance and sing, you know being gay fully at that time meant

	&#13;  

9	&#13;  

�having fun. It wasn't that much about sexuality, it was about having fun and just dancing and
singing our full heads off, you know? And not caring, just having fun.
[00:28:59] GR: What was the crowd like at Murphy's? Were there other black gay men? Was it
mostly white? Were there lesbians? Were there straight people? Did it tend towards a kind of
demographic group?
[00:29:12] PT: Not really that many straight people...I don't remember... Mixed couples,
absolutely, because we were a mixed couple, nothing's changed [laughs]. Todd was Caucasian,
and so... yeah, lesbians and gay men... Transgender? No, I don't remember any transgender
individuals... Drag Queens? Absolutely, but no transgender... I don't remember any transgender...
[00:29:52] GR: And what about The Straw? What was the appeal of The Last Straw compared to
Murphy's?
[00:29:58] PT: [laughs] Well, The Last Straw had the jukebox... and that long bar... and that's
where the questioning straight boys would go... so that was a lot of fun, you know playing with
them and so that was a whole different atmosphere, it was a cruise bar. Murphy's was a dance bar
and Last Straw was a cruise bar, that's where you would go pick up a straight boy and it was
funner than hell. It was a whole different clientele. It'd be a little rough sometimes, but fun.
[00:30:43] GR: Talking about—you brought up cruising—You know we've talked with other
people in the project, the Oral History Project, about Elmwood park, Bullitt Avenue as a place
where people would meet up. Did you have any sense of that world?
[00:30:59] PT : Absolutely, absolutely. You know it was almost—not everyone did it, some of us
did. It released pressure. It was a place to go have fun, and no questions asked, just totally
anonymous sexual encounters. Consenting adults. Was it risky as hell? Absolutely, you could get
arrested. No more so than now... you can still get arrested of course today, that hasn't changed.
But we had fun, you know, it was a part of the gay life. We didn't have places to meet other than,
you know, some seedy place or The Last Straw, which could get seedy at times. But it depends
on what kind of mood you were into. You know, were you in the mood to go dance or in the
mood to go cruise? Sometimes the same thing in both nights. But you did it anyways, you had
fun.
[00:32:14] GR: So you mentioned the police. Did you ever see ABC folks come by any of the
bars? Or like at Bullitt Avenue or a place like that, were you ever aware of the undercover
police? Or was that more, in your own experience, you knew that that happened and people
talked about it and said be cautious...
[00:32:37] PT: Yes, I never saw any ABC agents at The Park or Murphy's or the Last Straw.
They may have been there and if they were there, everyone was warned. We very much took
care of each other. So any harm of that nature that would come to one of us, we all banded
together and were determined to not let those influences deter from our mission, which was to be
ourselves in a safe environment. And I keep saying have fun, but that was really what we did,

	&#13;  

10	&#13;  

�and we just danced and sang and hugged each other and just carried on, you know? And it was
just part of who we were.
[00:33:34] GR: So tell me about The Park. You mentioned to me previously that you were at The
Park when it opened.
[00:33:38] PT: Yes, we were at Murphy's. And we'd heard there was a new bar opening. "How
exciting, a new bar! Yay! Let's go, let's go!" And so we decided to just go. And there we were,
and the owner said "You guys can come in, the lights aren't on yet, but you can come in." And so
we went in and music was on, so you know, we danced. But the disco lights, and all the flashing
lights weren't on, so that was our first encounter with The Park.
And it has changed in good ways, challenging ways, I wouldn't say bad ways, but it has evolved.
It has had to, it has had to cater to a wide variety of people. All money is green, and you can't
exclude a certain group of people and pay the bills. You have to broaden your horizons, broaden
your base in order to keep the lights on, so it has changed in that manner, where we have less of
a "gay" club, we have a more all-inclusive club now. And being an older gay male, you know
going to that bar we go, "God, we feel so old," because the guys are so young, and the girls are
so young, they're 21 years old. I've got kids older than that! You know, so it has changed in that
manner. We're the old guys now. And some of that's nice. We have a certain status that we enjoy,
because we're the old timers. There's nothing for us to prove now, we're just gonna have fun. We
just go. So it has changed in that manner.
[00:35:43] GR: Did you notice any kind of cross-generational community back then in the ‘70s
and ‘80s? You mentioned Tradewinds, which I get the sense that some of the older gays went
there. Places like Murphy’s, The Park...was that pretty much a young, twenties crowd?
[00:36:03] PT: It was, twenties and maybe thirties, but that was the main core of those places.
They were younger. I don’t remember really any of the older gay guys from that era. I see a few
of them I think but as far as knowing them we just didn’t know them.
[00:36:29] GR: So how would you say The Park was different in the late ‘70s and ‘80s than it is
today? You said that it’s changed, and hinted that it was gayer. What does that mean and what
does it look like in the ‘70s and ‘80s for The Park to be more authentically gay? What was that
like?
[00:36:51] PT: Well, you know the music was purely disco, Donna Summer, just dance music.
And the clothing was absolutely different than it is now, and to me that’s not good but that’s a
whole ‘nother issue, the clothing. But the music was fun, it was just loud and lots of Ping! Ping!
Ping! and just electric, and people danced for hours and took a break, had a beer, and went
dancing some more. You went home sweaty because you had been dancing all night. But was it
as clique-y as it is now? I don’t think so. Drag has changed the bar totally too, for good and for
bad. So that’s another advent of drag. The Park is a huge drag bar. I judge there, so it’s a big drag
bar.
[00:38:17] GR: Was it then or there was no drag shows?

	&#13;  

11	&#13;  

�[00:38:20] PT: I don’t remember there being any drag shows. There were drag queens, some of
the early Miss Gay Roanokes, I still know. But outside pageants on a national level weren’t
there, they were all local pageants. But now the national pageants come to Roanoke which is
totally different.
[00:38:44] GR: So thinking back, because we’re talking about the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, how
long did you do the living in Lynchburg and commuting to Roanoke for gay fun kind of thing?
And did you make friends with the Roanoke gay community that were part of your life outside of
the bar scene, or was it pretty much “we went there Friday, Saturday night, it was a bar scene,
and then we went back home to our Lynchburg life.”
[00:39:16] PT: Absolutely. The two cities, to be 45 miles apart could not be more different.
Conservative Lynchburg and liberal Roanoke. So we had our gay life in Roanoke, the dance
clubs, and then we went back to Lynchburg and suffered through all that craziness. Work,
school, whatever we did, and then, but we thought “a few more days, I can go dance again.” We
would live for going back to Roanoke, back on [Route] 460. I cannot count the times I’ve driven
460. I couldn’t imagine now. But about fifteen years ago I decided to move to Roanoke because
of love. And I’ve been here ever since.
[00:40:13] GR: So you lived in Lynchburg through the ‘80s ,’90s, up until the millennium?
[00:40:16] PT: Yes, exactly. And then finally decided rather than meeting halfway in Roanoke
for both of us, we’d live here. Because my partner lived about forty miles the other way, so
Roanoke was half ay for both of us so this was where we met.
[00: 40:35] GR: They were out in Blacksburg or… ?
[00: 40:38] PT: Yes, exactly, in that area. So we decided that this was it, this was halfway. So
instead of doing it all over and driving and driving let’s just move to Roanoke. And we did.
[00:40:52] GR: How long did the bar scene appeal to you, or did you continue going there in
your thirties, or how long was that a part of your life?
[00:41:00] PT: We discovered bars outside of Roanoke. We discovered Greensboro, we
discovered going to D.C., going to Richmond. And so we got to see, for all intents and purposes,
we got to see real bars, who had liquor. The Park didn’t have liquor, it had beer, but we wanted
to drink. So going to Greensboro was only 110 miles. We’d rather go to Greensboro than go
right down the street to The Park because The Park changed, something happened. And there
was a change in ownership, who was leading the ship at The Park and we didn’t like that, or the
person who was leading it. Without calling any names, we won’t go there, but we didn’t feel
welcome.
[00:42:03] GR: When was this?

	&#13;  

12	&#13;  

�[00: 42: 06] PT: I’d say, it would be maybe the late ‘90s, early 2000s. We just would rather drive
to Greensboro than put up with that situation. It didn’t bother us, we would just get in the car and
go, just have fun. So there was a change, there was a huge change.
[00: 42: 41] GR: Where there other places that you liked to hang out in Roanoke? Murphy’s was
only around for a few years I think?
[00: 42:47] PT: For a few years, yes, maybe two or three, four at the most. But that was it, we
didn’t go out to restaurants, we didn’t do that.
[00:42: 56] GR: I know that there were restaurants that gay Roanokers did hang out at, but that
was not part of your… ?
[00:42:03} PT: No, because we were Lynchburg boys, so we would stop at the Hardy’s on 460
on the way home. That was our restaurant, we’d do that. But as far as going out, we didn’t have
the money to do that, our whole financials were gas in the car to get to Roanoke and then get in
The Park and have a few beers and get home. We didn’t have the luxury of going out to
restaurants, so we just didn’t do it.
[00:43:31] GR: Where you aware of any sort of gay political stuff going on at the time or was
that part of your experience, or did that ever come up in conversation?
[00:43: 42] PT: Not at all. We just weren’t political. The most political I ever got, I remember,
the Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance, we actually marched at the gay pride parade in D.C. We
carried a banner, and that was about as political as I ever got, was marching in the gay pride
parade.
[00:44:07] GR: Would you say you were involved with the Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance?
[00:44:10] PT: Absolutely. I used to man the phones, because the gentleman who was president
of the Lambda Alliance, I rented from him. And the phone was actually in the house. So it was
crazy, yeah, that was part of where I lived at that time in Lynchburg, the old downtown. Harrison
Street, beautiful part of Lynchburg. A lot of old houses are down there.
[00:44:42] GR: Tell us, so you were manning the phones for the Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance on
Harrison Street in Lynchburg, What time period do you think this was?
[00:44:51] PT: Early ‘80s, maybe right in between that Hampden-Sydney/ Ferrum part of my
life, was the Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance, got a little newspaper and everything. A Newsletter,
yeah.1
[00:45:06] GR: And you got involved because your Landlord was… ?

	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1

	&#13;  

The Blue Ridge Lambda Press, the longest running LGBTQ publication in Southwest Virginia.

13	&#13;  

�[00:45:08] PT: Right, yeah because it was right there in my house and Doug said “Can you help
us man the phones?” and so I said “sure,” so we would sit there and read a book and the phone
would ring and [we’d answer] “Blue Ridge Lambda Alliance” and there was some serious
conversations from kids who didn’t know what to do, where to go, or who just wanted to talk.
There were some calls “My son’s gay. what do I do?” We weren’t trained by any means, we
were just here to listen and be a sounding board.
[00:45:40] GR: So there were gays in Lynchburg that were involved in this, and you two met
other gay folks at that time?
[00:45:47] PT: Right, there were definitely gay people who were a part of it, who helped to man
the phones, who we used to have dinners at our house and put on fashion shows, so it was fun.
[00:46:04] GR: What about the 1980s, what about HIV and AIDS, if you feel comfortable
talking about it. What were your perceptions of that around here in the community in Roanoke
and Lynchburg?
[00: 46:21] PT: We weren’t… we had heard about it, we didn’t know any people or friends who
were HIV-infected at the time, so we had heard about it but it really wasn’t part of the
community yet. It was happening, but we didn’t really know about it. Because it hadn’t hit home
yet, it wasn’t really a part of our lives yet.
[00: 46:52] GR: And eventually it was.
[00:46:54] PT: Eventually it was. We had friends who became HIV infected, who passed away
because of HIV. So it opened our eyes and we said “it’s happening, so we got to be careful.” I
mean you can’t [not] live your life but just be careful. Yeah, we all carried condoms because we
had to. We weren’t all going to sit at home and knit and be saints, that wasn’t who we were. We
were gonna play, but we were gonna be safe. It was just part of our lives we did it. At the house
there were huge bowls of condoms, because we wanted people to be safe, not live their lives in a
hole, not having fun, but just be smart about it so, people did. They woke up. They realized it
could happen to you, so be careful, be safe.
[00:48:02] GR: You said that at the house there was a big bowl of condoms, is there where you
were living?
[00:48:05] PT: Yes, yeah.
[00:48:06] GR: It sounds like a pretty gay house within a conservative city.
[00:48:09] PT: It was. It was like a whole, it was like a cocoon, we had our lives there and we
would have parties at the house, huge house on Harrison Street, and that’s where people came,
was Doug’s house. And we were there to entertain, I guess.
[00:48:32] GR: and it sounds like you had a sort of makeshift organizing going on with the
hotline and that sort of thing. People have remarked on how during the ‘80s with HIV moving

	&#13;  

14	&#13;  

�through the population, people started thinking more about monogamy and less cruising and this
kind of thing. It sounds like you’re saying that people kept partying and going out and doing
their thing but there was a consciousness about, say, safe sex.
[00:49:10] PT: Exactly. What we would say is, you can’t live your life and stop it. You don’t
need to stop your life. Just be smart and be aware that it’s not like the ‘70s where we didn’t have
those worries. We had to change. We had to adapt our lives because of it. Not stop your life just
change and just adapt how you do it. And we did it.
[00:49:52] GR: We have about maybe ten minutes left, what do you think are some of the big,
what would you say for you are some of the big changes over time, over the course of your
lifetime in the way that you have lived your life as a gay man? How has the community
changed? How has the experience of being gay changed?
[00:50:16] PT: Well, back in the early days, we had a group of friends who, we were pretty tight.
It was late ‘70s, early ‘80s, there was maybe ten of us who hung out. We were pretty tight, we
were good friends. And then things changed in the ‘80s and ‘90s. We didn’t have that closeness
anymore and now, we have a group of friends, about maybe twenty of us, who are thick as
thieves, we are very close. We often have separation anxiety if we don’t see each other. We are
in group chats that drive everyone up the wall sometimes because it’s our phones ping! ping!
ping! ping! ping! because we’re all talking, but we need and want to be around each other. We
are somehow, we’ve been brought together. We don’t know how it happened. It really started
with four people, two couples, called the boys, and we’re the boys. And if you didn’t see the two
of us, you didn’t see the two of them, they would go, “where are the boys?” Everybody knows
who they were talking about. We are the boys, and now it’s about twenty of us who we had the
majority here in our house this past weekend. Because we have a strong need to be close to each
other. And we laugh, sometimes we fight, but no one can come between this group. We’re very
protective of each other, and I think something has happened to draw us back to those kinds of
friendships again. We’ve gotten a little protective of who gets in the group, because it’s a little
out of hand sometimes, but we’re very close. And we enjoy each other. We couldn’t be more
different, we are all so different, but there’s something about our strongness together, and we
need that closeness, so we thoroughly enjoy each other. There are women and men in our group,
who enjoy being around each other, and that’s a huge plus for what’s happening now, with our
friendships. We’re inseparable, we really are, we’re as thick as thieves. And we just like being
around each other, sometimes too much. Give me a moment to myself, that isn’t going to
happen, the phone ping! ping! ping! “what are you doing?” So we’re like “ahhhh….” But we
wouldn’t have it any other way, we enjoy it. So, that’s how it’s changed.
[00:53:32] GR: is your cohort an all-gay and lesbian group, or is there straight?
[00: 53: 36] PT: No, we have straight couples in our group as well, absolutely. Absolutely
diverse group. And there is a comfort level that you, you’re drawn together for a reason, and
there is a comfort level that we have grown to that people asked us, “why do you always hug
when you see each other and when you leave?” And we do, we naturally hug each other. And
when we leave, when everybody’s going home, we hug each other again. That’s not seen, but we
do, because it’s just, we hug each other. And we say “drive safely, see you tomorrow,” and we

	&#13;  

15	&#13;  

�do because that’s who we are. We are a loving group of people and we thoroughly enjoy each
other. And our straight guy friends are extremely comfortable around us. Our straight female
friends are very comfortable around our lesbian friends. We’re respectful of each other, we don’t
cross boundaries with each other, we don’t do that kind of thing. We actually love each other,
and it’s wonderful, it’s absolutely wonderful. We enjoy it.
[00:55:01] GR: That’s beautiful, when you do think this community, how long ago did this begin
to form?
[00:55:08] PT: It’s been a long time. The boys have been the boys for eleven years or so. And
then the group just started to grow, it just, it is the oddest thing. They just came into our lives and
it just kept growing, and so it’s about ten years it’s been that way. And it’s kind of leveled off
now, the group is getting so big, but we welcome people in, and if you’re a kind person, and we
know pretty much immediately, we’re very intuitive. This group’s very intuitive and very
protective of the group. We welcome you in, and we love you just like everybody else. But
we’ve had some people who have tried to get into the group and we’re like “ahhh uh uh nope
nope” but you know, we can sense that this isn’t going to work. We tell each other quickly “nope
nope nope it’s not gonna work,” or we say “he’s wonderful” or “she’s wonderful,” and we hug
each other. So about ten years.
[00:56:20]nGR: Is there anything you would say to your Lynchburg young self now if you could,
you know, go in a time machine and send a message?
[00:56:31] PT: Worry less about what are you going to wear that night to The Park, and worry
more about building friendships.
[00:56:48] GR: On that note, I’d love to thank you for participating in the project.
[00:56:51] PT: Absolutely, thank you. My pleasure.

college	&#13;  student	&#13;  here	&#13;  with	&#13;  Trish	&#13;  Valentine	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  Fintel	&#13;  Library	&#13;  located	&#13;  in	&#13;  Salem,	&#13;  Virginia.	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  
conducting	&#13;  this	&#13;  oral	&#13;  history	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  public	&#13;  record	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  community.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  questions	&#13;  we	&#13;  
were	&#13;  asked	&#13;  in	&#13;  our	&#13;  class	&#13;  was	&#13;  “what	&#13;  pronoun	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  identify	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  with?”	&#13;  	&#13;

�	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  The	&#13;  pronoun	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  dressed.	&#13;  If	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  dressed	&#13;  and	&#13;  presenting	&#13;  ‘fem’	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  definitely	&#13;  
want	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  ‘she’	&#13;  and	&#13;  ‘her,’	&#13;  okay?	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  ‘he’	&#13;  or	&#13;  ‘it’	&#13;  [laughs]	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  else.	&#13;  If	&#13;  
I’m	&#13;  dressed	&#13;  as	&#13;  male	&#13;  than	&#13;  I	&#13;  identify	&#13;  as	&#13;  male.	&#13;  So	&#13;  the	&#13;  pronouns	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  match	&#13;  the	&#13;  
presentation.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:50	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  Okay	&#13;  
	&#13;  
0:52	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  Hey,	&#13;  even	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  people	&#13;  among	&#13;  other	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  people	&#13;  slip	&#13;  up	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  time.	&#13;  Don’t	&#13;  
get	&#13;  too	&#13;  offended,	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  offend	&#13;  yourself,	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  be	&#13;  too…	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  use	&#13;  the	&#13;  wrong	&#13;  pronoun	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  offended.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:05	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  my	&#13;  biggest	&#13;  fear.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:07	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  public	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  around	&#13;  the	&#13;  table	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  waitress	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  really	&#13;  
nice	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  pronoun.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  heaven	&#13;  when	&#13;  a	&#13;  waiter	&#13;  comes	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  says	&#13;  “ladies,	&#13;  what	&#13;  can	&#13;  I	&#13;  
get	&#13;  you?”	&#13;  you	&#13;  know?	&#13;  Then	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  really	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:23	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  Yeah.	&#13;  Why	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  agree	&#13;  to	&#13;  participate	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  project?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:28	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  Mainly	&#13;  because	&#13;  anything	&#13;  that	&#13;  gives	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  not	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  a	&#13;  better	&#13;  understanding	&#13;  
of	&#13;  what	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  is,	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that,	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  to.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  have	&#13;  to.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  I	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  am	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
opinion	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  attack	&#13;  everyone	&#13;  one	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  time.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  convince	&#13;  	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  crowd	&#13;  of	&#13;  
people,	&#13;  but	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  nice	&#13;  to	&#13;  people	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  can	&#13;  see	&#13;  me	&#13;  as	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  like	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  
they	&#13;  get	&#13;  along,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  one	&#13;  more	&#13;  step.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  one	&#13;  more	&#13;  person	&#13;  on	&#13;  this	&#13;  side	&#13;  of—the	&#13;  right	&#13;  side	&#13;  
of	&#13;  history.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  share	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  objective	&#13;  of	&#13;  bringing	&#13;  people	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  more	&#13;  accepting	&#13;  of	&#13;  
people	&#13;  who	&#13;  are	&#13;  different	&#13;  than	&#13;  they	&#13;  are.	&#13;  You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  even	&#13;  gays	&#13;  and	&#13;  lesbians	&#13;  don’t…	&#13;  some	&#13;  just	&#13;  
don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  anything	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  with	&#13;  us,	&#13;  some	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  mind	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  understand.	&#13;  So	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  I	&#13;  
can	&#13;  meet	&#13;  is	&#13;  fine.	&#13;  	&#13;

�KD:	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  think…	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  gays	&#13;  and	&#13;  lesbians	&#13;  not	&#13;  accepting	&#13;  your	&#13;  group,	&#13;  
transgender	&#13;  groups?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
2:35	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  they	&#13;  struggle	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  done	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  struggles	&#13;  and	&#13;  sometimes	&#13;  
they	&#13;  feel	&#13;  that	&#13;  transgender,	&#13;  the	&#13;  T	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  LGBT,	&#13;  is	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  riding	&#13;  on	&#13;  their	&#13;  coattails.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  
blacks	&#13;  do	&#13;  not	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  LGBT	&#13;  community	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  “we	&#13;  want	&#13;  our	&#13;  civil	&#13;  rights,	&#13;  too.”	&#13;  “No,	&#13;  no.	&#13;  Civil	&#13;  
rights	&#13;  are	&#13;  black	&#13;  and	&#13;  white,”	&#13;  [they	&#13;  say].	&#13;  Sometimes	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  being	&#13;  discriminatory	&#13;  against	&#13;  the	&#13;  
LGBT	&#13;  community	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  through	&#13;  the	&#13;  struggle,	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  gained	&#13;  acceptance,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  they	&#13;  resent	&#13;  us	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  hard	&#13;  battles.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  strange	&#13;  but	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  is	&#13;  
looking	&#13;  for	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  to	&#13;  look	&#13;  down	&#13;  on.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  looking	&#13;  for	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  to	&#13;  look	&#13;  up	&#13;  to.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  always…	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  
put	&#13;  it	&#13;  this	&#13;  way:	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  president	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  company	&#13;  for	&#13;  many	&#13;  years,	&#13;  but	&#13;  my	&#13;  business	&#13;  card	&#13;  never	&#13;  
had	&#13;  the	&#13;  word	&#13;  president	&#13;  on	&#13;  it,	&#13;  it	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  word	&#13;  associate.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  into	&#13;  titles;	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  just	&#13;  into	&#13;  
accepting	&#13;  people.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
3:45	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  good.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  gain	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  this?	&#13;  You	&#13;  would	&#13;  
say	&#13;  that	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  is	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  much	&#13;  the	&#13;  same?	&#13;  Everyone	&#13;  has	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  battles?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
4:01	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  drop	&#13;  a	&#13;  bunch	&#13;  of	&#13;  marbles	&#13;  on	&#13;  this	&#13;  table	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  figure	&#13;  out	&#13;  how	&#13;  far	&#13;  
they	&#13;  are	&#13;  from	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  dropped	&#13;  them,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  form	&#13;  a	&#13;  bell	&#13;  curve.	&#13;  [gesturing	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  table]	&#13;  
So	&#13;  there	&#13;  are	&#13;  very	&#13;  manly	&#13;  men,	&#13;  very	&#13;  feminine	&#13;  females	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  sit	&#13;  here.	&#13;  As	&#13;  you	&#13;  move	&#13;  
away	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit,	&#13;  then	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  certain	&#13;  man	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  more	&#13;  feminine,	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  who	&#13;  
is	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  more	&#13;  masculine.	&#13;  Until	&#13;  finally	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  who	&#13;  has	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  masculinity	&#13;  and	&#13;  
identifies	&#13;  as	&#13;  masculine	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  man	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  feminine	&#13;  and	&#13;  identifies	&#13;  as	&#13;  feminine.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  
get	&#13;  this	&#13;  bell	&#13;  curve.	&#13;  Think	&#13;  about	&#13;  this,	&#13;  think	&#13;  how	&#13;  lucky	&#13;  we	&#13;  are	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  born	&#13;  in	&#13;  America.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  
think	&#13;  about	&#13;  how	&#13;  lucky	&#13;  we	&#13;  are	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  born	&#13;  in	&#13;  this	&#13;  time	&#13;  in	&#13;  America.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  things	&#13;  are	&#13;  just	&#13;  
about	&#13;  luck.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  blessed	&#13;  by	&#13;  being	&#13;  transgender.	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  being	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
about	&#13;  the	&#13;  feminine	&#13;  side	&#13;  of	&#13;  things.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  pretend	&#13;  I	&#13;  will	&#13;  ever	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  knows.	&#13;  But	&#13;  
I’m	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  woman-­‐like.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  I	&#13;  will	&#13;  never	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  think	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  has	&#13;  
something	&#13;  about	&#13;  them	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  different	&#13;  than	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  else,	&#13;  and	&#13;  why	&#13;  you	&#13;  should	&#13;  look	&#13;  
down	&#13;  on	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  beyond	&#13;  me.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  my	&#13;  feelings.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
5:30	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  feeling.	&#13;  Can	&#13;  we	&#13;  move	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  time	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  how	&#13;  blessed	&#13;  we	&#13;  are	&#13;  
to	&#13;  live	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  America,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  are,	&#13;  times	&#13;  are	&#13;  changing.	&#13;  Have	&#13;  you	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  your	&#13;  entire	&#13;  
life?	&#13;

TV:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  born	&#13;  in	&#13;  Washington	&#13;  DC	&#13;  about	&#13;  a	&#13;  block	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  capital	&#13;  building	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  
lived	&#13;  about	&#13;  a	&#13;  mile	&#13;  or	&#13;  two	&#13;  outside	&#13;  the	&#13;  District	&#13;  of	&#13;  Columbia	&#13;  into	&#13;  Maryland	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  school	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Maryland	&#13;  schools.	&#13;  Went	&#13;  to	&#13;  college	&#13;  at	&#13;  NC	&#13;  State	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  to	&#13;  take	&#13;  a	&#13;  job	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  
came	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  college,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  here	&#13;  probably	&#13;  longer	&#13;  than—I’m	&#13;  twice	&#13;  your	&#13;  age—about	&#13;  forty-­‐
seven	&#13;  years	&#13;  so	&#13;  [laughing].	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  here	&#13;  as	&#13;  fast	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  could.	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  being	&#13;  down	&#13;  here.	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  never	&#13;  go	&#13;  
back	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  DC	&#13;  or	&#13;  Maryland	&#13;  again.	&#13;  North	&#13;  Carolina	&#13;  and	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  are	&#13;  both	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  states.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  
been	&#13;  here	&#13;  forty-­‐seven,	&#13;  forty-­‐eight	&#13;  years.	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  Can	&#13;  you	&#13;  tell	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  growing	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  these	&#13;  locations?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
6:40	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  Growing	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  DC	&#13;  area	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  ball	&#13;  because	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  young	&#13;  there	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
criminality,	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess.	&#13;  At	&#13;  ten	&#13;  years	&#13;  old	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  take	&#13;  a	&#13;  bus	&#13;  downtown,	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  this	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  winter	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
because	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  hotel	&#13;  that	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  public	&#13;  swimming	&#13;  pool	&#13;  inside.	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  ride	&#13;  the	&#13;  bus	&#13;  downtown,	&#13;  
pay	&#13;  ten	&#13;  cents	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  swimming	&#13;  and	&#13;  come	&#13;  back	&#13;  by	&#13;  myself.	&#13;  Now	&#13;  you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  let	&#13;  a	&#13;  ten-­‐year-­‐old	&#13;  kid	&#13;  in	&#13;  
a	&#13;  big	&#13;  city	&#13;  now	&#13;  get	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  bus,	&#13;  go	&#13;  ten	&#13;  or	&#13;  fifteen	&#13;  miles,	&#13;  and	&#13;  expect	&#13;  him	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  home	&#13;  alive	&#13;  or	&#13;  all	&#13;  
in	&#13;  one	&#13;  piece.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  DC	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  small	&#13;  town	&#13;  compared	&#13;  to	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  or	&#13;  Chicago	&#13;  or	&#13;  
LA.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  hick	&#13;  town.	&#13;  It	&#13;  really	&#13;  was.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time	&#13;  before	&#13;  the	&#13;  Kennedy	&#13;  Center	&#13;  
was	&#13;  built…	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  joke	&#13;  in	&#13;  DC	&#13;  was	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  time	&#13;  in	&#13;  DC,	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  New	&#13;  York.	&#13;  
[laughs]	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  standard	&#13;  because	&#13;  there	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  plays	&#13;  or	&#13;  outlets	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
enjoyed	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  probably	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  last	&#13;  generations	&#13;  to	&#13;  live	&#13;  in	&#13;  DC	&#13;  and	&#13;  be	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  move	&#13;  about.	&#13;  
You	&#13;  go	&#13;  there	&#13;  now	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  barriers,	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  terraced,	&#13;  you	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  drive	&#13;  near	&#13;  buildings.	&#13;  
You	&#13;  know,	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  get	&#13;  anywhere	&#13;  in	&#13;  DC,	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  where	&#13;  everything	&#13;  was.	&#13;  I	&#13;  drove	&#13;  right	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  riot	&#13;  
area	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  riots	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  sixties	&#13;  and	&#13;  knew	&#13;  how	&#13;  far	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  riot	&#13;  area	&#13;  and	&#13;  back	&#13;  out.	&#13;  But	&#13;  
now	&#13;  everything	&#13;  is	&#13;  just	&#13;  terraced	&#13;  and	&#13;  running,	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess,	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  changed	&#13;  our	&#13;  lifestyle.	&#13;  
But	&#13;  back	&#13;  then	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  Like	&#13;  I	&#13;  said,	&#13;  my	&#13;  generation	&#13;  was	&#13;  probably	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  last	&#13;  generations	&#13;  to	&#13;  
really	&#13;  enjoy	&#13;  growing	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  [the]	&#13;  DC	&#13;  area.	&#13;

one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  liberal	&#13;  restaurants	&#13;  in	&#13;  town	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  get	&#13;  in	&#13;  there	&#13;  at	&#13;  sixteen	&#13;  and	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  drink	&#13;  
or	&#13;  two	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  hung	&#13;  out	&#13;  there.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  down	&#13;  to	&#13;  M	&#13;  Street	&#13;  where	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  bars	&#13;

sports:	&#13;  playing	&#13;  football,	&#13;  swimming	&#13;  competitively,	&#13;  and	&#13;  things	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  We	&#13;  hung	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  Southeast	&#13;

whatever.	&#13;  Streetball,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  we	&#13;  did	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of.	&#13;  Growing	&#13;  up,	&#13;  just	&#13;  about	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  on	&#13;  this	&#13;  long	&#13;

�TV:	&#13;  I	&#13;  started	&#13;  cross-­‐dressing	&#13;  at	&#13;  six	&#13;  years	&#13;  old.	&#13;  (KD:	&#13;  ah,	&#13;  okay)	&#13;  My	&#13;  mom	&#13;  and	&#13;  dad	&#13;  worked	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
latchkey	&#13;  kid	&#13;  so	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  home	&#13;  from	&#13;  school	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  get	&#13;  into	&#13;  mom’s	&#13;  makeup,	&#13;  mom’s	&#13;  clothes,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  then	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  remember	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  this	&#13;  bra	&#13;  was	&#13;  put	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  this	&#13;  lipstick	&#13;  was	&#13;  put	&#13;  over	&#13;  here.”	&#13;  
So	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  careful	&#13;  to	&#13;  put	&#13;  everything	&#13;  back.	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  knew	&#13;  if	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom	&#13;  and	&#13;  dad	&#13;  knew.	&#13;  Mom	&#13;  did	&#13;  
dress	&#13;  me	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  on	&#13;  Halloween.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  Spanish	&#13;  skirt	&#13;  on	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  the	&#13;  
white	&#13;  pull-­‐over-­‐your-­‐shoulders	&#13;  blouse.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  her	&#13;  idea	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  trick-­‐or-­‐
treating	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  girl	&#13;  or	&#13;  if	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  idea,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  vivid	&#13;  memory.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  probably	&#13;  in	&#13;  fifth	&#13;  
or	&#13;  sixth	&#13;  grade.	&#13;  I	&#13;  remember	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  six	&#13;  or	&#13;  seven	&#13;  when	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  home	&#13;  
going	&#13;  through	&#13;  mom’s	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  only	&#13;  child	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  any	&#13;  sisters	&#13;  at	&#13;  all	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  
through	&#13;  her	&#13;  stuff.	&#13;  	&#13;

12:16	&#13;  
	&#13;

until	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  fifties	&#13;  and	&#13;  sixties.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  [unintelligible]	&#13;  then	&#13;  but	&#13;  most	&#13;  
of	&#13;  them	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  history.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  young,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  keeping	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  themselves,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  dressing	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  
sister’s	&#13;  or	&#13;  their	&#13;  mom’s	&#13;  clothes	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  putting	&#13;  it	&#13;  away	&#13;  real	&#13;  quick	&#13;  because	&#13;  you	&#13;  might	&#13;  hear	&#13;  
footsteps	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  door	&#13;  or	&#13;  something.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  all	&#13;  guilt,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  guilt	&#13;  trip,	&#13;  of	&#13;  course	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  taboo.	&#13;

would	&#13;  see	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  her	&#13;  clothes	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  disorganized	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  she	&#13;  left	&#13;  them	&#13;  or	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  her	&#13;

cutter,	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  nurse.	&#13;  So	&#13;  mom	&#13;  had	&#13;  attended	&#13;  three	&#13;  years	&#13;  of	&#13;  college,	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  it	&#13;  took	&#13;  
three	&#13;  years	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  your	&#13;  nursing	&#13;  degree	&#13;  instead	&#13;  of	&#13;  four,	&#13;  so	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  much	&#13;  early	&#13;  on	&#13;  ahead	&#13;

rather.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  interesting.	&#13;  Our	&#13;  community	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  funny.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  hilly	&#13;  community.	&#13;  The	&#13;

common	&#13;  driveway	&#13;  between	&#13;  the	&#13;  two	&#13;  houses,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  coming	&#13;  up	&#13;  the	&#13;  hill	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  driveway,	&#13;  
here	&#13;  he	&#13;  comes	&#13;  home	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  date,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  pull	&#13;  my	&#13;  car	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  side	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  road,	&#13;  dive	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  car,	&#13;  go	&#13;  
in	&#13;  the	&#13;  back	&#13;  door	&#13;  [of	&#13;  the	&#13;  house],	&#13;  get	&#13;  undone,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  go	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  retrieve	&#13;  the	&#13;  car.	&#13;  He	&#13;  told	&#13;  me	&#13;  
years	&#13;  later	&#13;  he	&#13;  knew.	&#13;  He	&#13;  asked	&#13;  me	&#13;  one	&#13;  time.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  probably	&#13;  about	&#13;  30	&#13;  years	&#13;  old	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“still	&#13;  wearing	&#13;  your	&#13;  mom’s	&#13;  clothes?”	&#13;  I	&#13;  should	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  braver.	&#13;  I	&#13;  should	&#13;  have	&#13;  told	&#13;  him	&#13;  
“no,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  got	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  now.”	&#13;  [laughs]	&#13;  So	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  caught	&#13;  until	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  married.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;

	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  Were	&#13;  you	&#13;  afraid	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  moment?	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  guessing	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  since	&#13;  you	&#13;  dove	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  car.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
15:24	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  No	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  terrified!	&#13;  [KD:	&#13;  (laughing)	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  through	&#13;  your	&#13;  mind?]	&#13;  Terrified.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
first	&#13;  things	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  are…	&#13;  back	&#13;  then	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  transvestite,	&#13;  we	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  
know	&#13;  crossdressers,	&#13;  we	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  transgendered.	&#13;  And	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  my	&#13;  initials.	&#13;  Transvestite:	&#13;  TV.	&#13;  
Trish	&#13;  Valentine.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  picked	&#13;  that	&#13;  name	&#13;  long	&#13;  before	&#13;  I	&#13;  really	&#13;  understood	&#13;  crossdressing	&#13;  and	&#13;  what	&#13;  
a	&#13;  crossdresser	&#13;  was	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  different.	&#13;  But	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  think	&#13;  of	&#13;  at	&#13;  a	&#13;  young	&#13;  age	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  
school,	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  one.	&#13;  You	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  else	&#13;  is	&#13;  doing	&#13;  this	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  you	&#13;  never	&#13;  
see	&#13;  anybody.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  business	&#13;  trip	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  LA	&#13;  one	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  they	&#13;  did	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  gender	&#13;  
exploration	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  called	&#13;  them	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “you	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  help	&#13;  me	&#13;  out,	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  let	&#13;  you	&#13;  interview	&#13;  me.	&#13;  
I’m	&#13;  a	&#13;  transvestite.”	&#13;  They	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  laughed	&#13;  and	&#13;  hung	&#13;  up.	&#13;  I	&#13;  called	&#13;  them	&#13;  like	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  one,	&#13;  like	&#13;  
this	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  thrill	&#13;  for	&#13;  them,	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  finally	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet	&#13;  a	&#13;  transvestite,	&#13;  in	&#13;  L.A.,	&#13;  
right?	&#13;  [laughter]	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  one.	&#13;  You	&#13;  really	&#13;  hide,	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  hide	&#13;  
everything.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
16:40	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  You	&#13;  introduced	&#13;  your	&#13;  fear.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  wondering	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  period	&#13;  of	&#13;  your	&#13;  life	&#13;  was.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;

	&#13;

�	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  It	&#13;  was…	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  projects	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  in	&#13;  school,	&#13;  college,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  
like.	&#13;  You	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  pressures	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  always	&#13;  busy	&#13;  so	&#13;  your	&#13;  mind	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  wander	&#13;  too	&#13;  much	&#13;  
towards	&#13;  dressing.	&#13;  But	&#13;  after	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  married,	&#13;  I	&#13;  kept	&#13;  my	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  black	&#13;  bag.	&#13;  My	&#13;  wife	&#13;  bought	&#13;  a	&#13;  wig	&#13;  
when	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  married	&#13;  about	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  or	&#13;  two.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  never	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  wig.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  always	&#13;  put	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  a	&#13;  
scarf	&#13;  or	&#13;  something	&#13;  on	&#13;  my	&#13;  head.	&#13;  And	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  waited	&#13;  until	&#13;  about	&#13;  2	&#13;  or	&#13;  3	&#13;  o’clock	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  morning.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
had	&#13;  to	&#13;  try	&#13;  that	&#13;  wig	&#13;  on!	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  put	&#13;  the	&#13;  wig	&#13;  on	&#13;  and	&#13;  got	&#13;  into	&#13;  her	&#13;  makeup	&#13;  and	&#13;  got	&#13;  dressed	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
bathroom	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  heard	&#13;  [knocking	&#13;  sound	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  table]	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  heard	&#13;  a	&#13;  knock	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  door.	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  
a	&#13;  child,	&#13;  1	&#13;  year	&#13;  old.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  discovered.	&#13;  I	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  say	&#13;  caught,	&#13;  caught	&#13;  sounds	&#13;  like	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  
done	&#13;  something	&#13;  illegal.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  discovered.	&#13;  She	&#13;  discovered	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  crossdresser	&#13;  after	&#13;  one	&#13;  
year	&#13;  of	&#13;  marriage,	&#13;  so	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  known	&#13;  for	&#13;  46	&#13;  years.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
So	&#13;  the	&#13;  difficult	&#13;  time	&#13;  was	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  dress	&#13;  more,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  forties,	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  
some	&#13;  freedom,	&#13;  needed	&#13;  some	&#13;  time,	&#13;  I	&#13;  needed	&#13;  some	&#13;  Trish	&#13;  time.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  get.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  hard	&#13;  on	&#13;  
her	&#13;  and	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  the	&#13;  kids	&#13;  somewhere.	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  about	&#13;  suicide	&#13;  then.	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “this	&#13;  is	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  
right.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  imagine	&#13;  most	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  people	&#13;  at	&#13;  some	&#13;  time	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  life	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  given	&#13;  a	&#13;  
thought	&#13;  to	&#13;  that.	&#13;  Until	&#13;  they	&#13;  figure	&#13;  out	&#13;  they	&#13;  really	&#13;  are	&#13;  blessed	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  life.	&#13;  So	&#13;  my	&#13;  
wife	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  a	&#13;  psychiatrist	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  Charlottesville.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  scared	&#13;  to	&#13;  even	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  
in	&#13;  Lynchburg.	&#13;  Lynchburg	&#13;  is	&#13;  where	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  living.	&#13;  We	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  psychiatrist	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  much	&#13;  as	&#13;  our	&#13;  
choosing.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  nice	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  took	&#13;  an	&#13;  hour	&#13;  or	&#13;  more	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Charlottesville	&#13;  
area	&#13;  where	&#13;  he	&#13;  was.	&#13;  That	&#13;  gave	&#13;  us	&#13;  an	&#13;  hour	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about.	&#13;  Then	&#13;  
we	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  with	&#13;  him	&#13;  for	&#13;  50	&#13;  minutes	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  would	&#13;  give	&#13;  us	&#13;  an	&#13;  hour	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  half	&#13;  to	&#13;  ride	&#13;  home,	&#13;  
maybe	&#13;  stop	&#13;  and	&#13;  get	&#13;  lunch	&#13;  and	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  we	&#13;  did	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  my	&#13;  motive	&#13;  for	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  
him	&#13;  was	&#13;  to	&#13;  make	&#13;  sure	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  really	&#13;  make	&#13;  my	&#13;  wife	&#13;  understand	&#13;  that	&#13;  this	&#13;  isn’t	&#13;  going	&#13;  away.	&#13;  
You	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  just	&#13;  stop	&#13;  being	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  no	&#13;  more	&#13;  than	&#13;  you	&#13;  stop	&#13;  being	&#13;  heterosexual	&#13;  or	&#13;  you	&#13;  stop	&#13;  
being	&#13;  homosexual	&#13;  or…	&#13;  Whatever	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  at	&#13;  5	&#13;  or	&#13;  6	&#13;  years	&#13;  old	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  
she	&#13;  really	&#13;  understood	&#13;  but	&#13;  having	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  else	&#13;  say	&#13;  it	&#13;  besides	&#13;  me	&#13;  helped	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  he	&#13;  
told	&#13;  me	&#13;  “you	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  join	&#13;  a	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  group.	&#13;  You	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  patient,	&#13;  he	&#13;  is	&#13;  an	&#13;  
airline	&#13;  pilot,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  really	&#13;  easy	&#13;  for	&#13;  him	&#13;  because	&#13;  once	&#13;  a	&#13;  month	&#13;  he	&#13;  jumps	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  plane	&#13;  free,	&#13;  goes	&#13;  
out	&#13;  to	&#13;  San	&#13;  Francisco,	&#13;  and	&#13;  spends	&#13;  a	&#13;  weekend	&#13;  dressed	&#13;  with	&#13;  his	&#13;  girlfriends	&#13;  out	&#13;  there.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  
girlfriends	&#13;  meaning	&#13;  TG	&#13;  girls.	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  the	&#13;  term	&#13;  “GG”?	&#13;  [KD:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  what	&#13;  is	&#13;  it?]	&#13;  …	&#13;  girl.	&#13;  [KD:	&#13;  what	&#13;  
is	&#13;  it?]	&#13;  Generic	&#13;  girl,	&#13;  born	&#13;  girl,	&#13;  biological	&#13;  girl,	&#13;  generic	&#13;  girl.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  GGs	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  TGs,	&#13;  
transgender	&#13;  girls,	&#13;  and	&#13;  GGs.	&#13;  So	&#13;  he	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  with	&#13;  his	&#13;  TG	&#13;  friends,	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  girls	&#13;  and	&#13;  spend	&#13;  
the	&#13;  weekend	&#13;  and	&#13;  all.	&#13;  He	&#13;  says	&#13;  “you	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  place.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Lynchburg,	&#13;  just	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  how	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  Lynchburg	&#13;  is	&#13;  largely	&#13;  due	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  church	&#13;  there,	&#13;  
there	&#13;  is	&#13;  no	&#13;  way	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  psychiatrist	&#13;  or	&#13;  join	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  other	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  
[people].	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  found	&#13;  them.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  internet	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  
found	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  in	&#13;  Raleigh,	&#13;  found	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  in	&#13;  Greensboro,	&#13;  found	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  in	&#13;  Charlotte.	&#13;  I	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  
the	&#13;  group	&#13;  in	&#13;  Charlotte,	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  down	&#13;  there,	&#13;  monthly	&#13;  to	&#13;  their	&#13;  meetings,	&#13;  and	&#13;  spend	&#13;  the	&#13;  
weekend	&#13;  in	&#13;  Charlotte.	&#13;  Kappa	&#13;  Beta	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  name	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  group	&#13;  [spells	&#13;  it].1	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  girls	&#13;  group	&#13;

30	&#13;  people	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  group.	&#13;  That	&#13;  helped	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot.	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  the	&#13;  difficulty	&#13;  was	&#13;  before	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  the	&#13;  psychiatrist,	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  the	&#13;  easy	&#13;  part	&#13;  was	&#13;  
coming	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  that.	&#13;  We	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  probably	&#13;  about	&#13;  4	&#13;  or	&#13;  5	&#13;  times	&#13;  we	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  scheduled	&#13;  and	&#13;  
we	&#13;  would	&#13;  just	&#13;  call	&#13;  and	&#13;  say	&#13;  “hey,	&#13;  we	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  up	&#13;  again,”	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  up.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  
we	&#13;  were	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  every	&#13;  2	&#13;  weeks	&#13;  or	&#13;  2	&#13;  times	&#13;  a	&#13;  week	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  We	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  met	&#13;  with	&#13;  
him	&#13;  once	&#13;  a	&#13;  month.	&#13;  The	&#13;  first	&#13;  thing	&#13;  he	&#13;  suggested	&#13;  we	&#13;  do	&#13;  was	&#13;  go	&#13;  to…	&#13;  the	&#13;  largest	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  
conference	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  United	&#13;  States,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  held	&#13;  in	&#13;  Atlanta.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  for	&#13;  TG	&#13;  girls	&#13;  and	&#13;  TG	&#13;  guys.	&#13;  My	&#13;  wife	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
went	&#13;  down	&#13;  and	&#13;  spent	&#13;  a	&#13;  week,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  ever	&#13;  spent	&#13;  a	&#13;  week	&#13;  dressed.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  
heaven.	&#13;  Everybody	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  took	&#13;  over	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  Sheraton	&#13;  [hotel]	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean	&#13;  
there	&#13;  were	&#13;  like	&#13;  800	&#13;  people	&#13;  there	&#13;  every	&#13;  year	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  held.	&#13;  So	&#13;  he	&#13;  suggested	&#13;  we	&#13;  go	&#13;  down	&#13;  there	&#13;  first	&#13;  
and	&#13;  then	&#13;  find	&#13;  a	&#13;  group.	&#13;  Then	&#13;  life	&#13;  became	&#13;  better.	&#13;  My	&#13;  wife	&#13;  was	&#13;  reluctantly	&#13;  tolerant	&#13;  about	&#13;  my	&#13;  
dressing	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  became	&#13;  easier	&#13;  for	&#13;  her	&#13;  as	&#13;  she	&#13;  understood	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  dress	&#13;  more	&#13;  than	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
dressing	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  allowed	&#13;  to	&#13;  dress	&#13;  more	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  finally	&#13;  getting	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  house	&#13;  
and	&#13;  joining	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  and	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  meeting,	&#13;  driving	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  to	&#13;  Charlotte	&#13;  dressed	&#13;  and	&#13;  back	&#13;  
dressed,	&#13;  spending	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  weekend	&#13;  dressed.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  nice.	&#13;  The	&#13;  whole	&#13;  world	&#13;  turned	&#13;  upside-­‐
down	&#13;  once	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  some	&#13;  good	&#13;  input	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  doctor.	&#13;  Southern	&#13;  Comfort	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  name	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
yearly	&#13;  convention	&#13;  down	&#13;  in	&#13;  Atlanta	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  huge.2	&#13;  	&#13;

KD:	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask	&#13;  about	&#13;  that	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  sure,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  heard	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  but…	&#13;

TV:	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  group	&#13;  meetings	&#13;  anymore	&#13;  and	&#13;  rarely	&#13;  get	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  internet	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  other	&#13;  girls.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
think	&#13;  people	&#13;  like	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  and	&#13;  I,	&#13;  we	&#13;  call	&#13;  each	&#13;  other,	&#13;  we	&#13;  still	&#13;  do	&#13;  things	&#13;  together.3	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  
fun	&#13;  doing	&#13;  something	&#13;  normal:	&#13;  going	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  dinner,	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  and	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  hotel	&#13;  
room	&#13;  with	&#13;  20	&#13;  other	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  girls.	&#13;  That	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  old	&#13;  pretty	&#13;  quick.	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  every	&#13;  once	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  
while.	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  down	&#13;  to	&#13;  Nashville	&#13;  recently	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet	&#13;  some	&#13;  girls	&#13;  I	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  online	&#13;  for	&#13;  years	&#13;  and	&#13;  
years.	&#13;  We	&#13;  did	&#13;  that	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  months	&#13;  ago,	&#13;  but	&#13;  not	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  constant.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  enjoyable	&#13;  
doing	&#13;  things	&#13;  a	&#13;  normal	&#13;  woman	&#13;  would	&#13;  do.	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  shopping.	&#13;  I	&#13;  love	&#13;  Dress	&#13;  Barn.	&#13;  Dress	&#13;  Barn	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  
trains	&#13;  their	&#13;  salespeople	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  very	&#13;  accepting.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  women	&#13;  like	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  dressed	&#13;  man…	&#13;

and	&#13;  her	&#13;  girlfriend.	&#13;  The	&#13;  three	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  went	&#13;  down	&#13;  to	&#13;  Key	&#13;  West	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  week	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  put	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  bit	&#13;  
of	&#13;  man’s	&#13;  clothing	&#13;  the	&#13;  whole	&#13;  week	&#13;  so	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  first	&#13;  travel	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  plane	&#13;  dressed.	&#13;  You	&#13;  want	&#13;  
to	&#13;  hear	&#13;  a	&#13;  funny	&#13;  story	&#13;  about	&#13;  that?	&#13;  [KD:	&#13;  yes!]	&#13;  So	&#13;  my	&#13;  girlfriend	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  grew	&#13;  up	&#13;  with,	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  down	&#13;  
the	&#13;  street	&#13;  at	&#13;  rehab,	&#13;  I	&#13;  say	&#13;  “hey,	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  over	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  out	&#13;  if	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  any	&#13;  
trouble	&#13;  getting	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  plane.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  are	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  over	&#13;  and	&#13;  interview	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  TSA	&#13;

going	&#13;  go…”	&#13;  So,	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  over	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  said	&#13;  “we	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  care	&#13;  how	&#13;  you	&#13;  dress	&#13;  as	&#13;  long	&#13;  as	&#13;  you	&#13;  
have	&#13;  your	&#13;  identification.	&#13;  Don’t	&#13;  come	&#13;  with	&#13;  any	&#13;  fake	&#13;  identification.	&#13;  Bring	&#13;  your	&#13;  male	&#13;  identification,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  any	&#13;  static	&#13;  from	&#13;  us.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  now	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  Key	&#13;  West.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  drop	&#13;  
the	&#13;  car	&#13;  off	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  parking	&#13;  lot	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  Airport,	&#13;  get	&#13;  our	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  go	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  check	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  [she]	&#13;  
goes	&#13;  through	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  behind	&#13;  her	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  guy	&#13;  says	&#13;  “let	&#13;  me	&#13;  see	&#13;  your	&#13;  ID”	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  give	&#13;  him	&#13;  my	&#13;  
male	&#13;  ID.	&#13;  “You’re	&#13;  not	&#13;  so	&#13;  and	&#13;  so.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “oh	&#13;  yes	&#13;  I	&#13;  am.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  he	&#13;  says	&#13;  “Well	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  heard	&#13;  of	&#13;  you	&#13;  but	&#13;  
I’ve	&#13;  never	&#13;  met	&#13;  one.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  now	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  “one.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  my	&#13;  new	&#13;  name:	&#13;  “one.”	&#13;  [laughter]	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  he	&#13;  
winked	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  girl,	&#13;  a	&#13;  beautiful	&#13;  woman	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  side	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  metal	&#13;  detector.	&#13;  He	&#13;  must	&#13;  have	&#13;  
winked	&#13;  at	&#13;  her	&#13;  because	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “would	&#13;  you	&#13;  sit	&#13;  over	&#13;  there	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  minute?”	&#13;  She	&#13;  had	&#13;  pulled	&#13;  me	&#13;  out	&#13;  
of	&#13;  the	&#13;  group.	&#13;  So	&#13;  she	&#13;  had	&#13;  me	&#13;  sit	&#13;  right	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  thing	&#13;  while	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  paraded	&#13;  by	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“take	&#13;  off	&#13;  your	&#13;  shoes	&#13;  and	&#13;  come	&#13;  on	&#13;  through.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  she	&#13;  sent	&#13;  me	&#13;  over	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  guy	&#13;  that	&#13;  examined	&#13;  
my	&#13;  shoes.	&#13;  They	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  put	&#13;  me	&#13;  though	&#13;  the	&#13;  full	&#13;  deal.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  out	&#13;  on	&#13;  my	&#13;  own	&#13;  enough	&#13;  
by	&#13;  then	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  phase	&#13;  me.	&#13;  And	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  give	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  a	&#13;  chocolate	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  So	&#13;  the	&#13;  
gentleman	&#13;  looking	&#13;  at	&#13;  my	&#13;  male	&#13;  driver’s	&#13;  license	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  saying	&#13;  “I’ve	&#13;  heard	&#13;  of	&#13;  you	&#13;  guys	&#13;  but	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  
never	&#13;  met	&#13;  one.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  you’ve	&#13;  met	&#13;  one	&#13;  now.”	&#13;  
	&#13;  
26:50	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  the	&#13;  main	&#13;  thing	&#13;  is	&#13;  just	&#13;  exposure.	&#13;  Getting	&#13;  exposure.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
26:55	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  anything,	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  bit	&#13;  easier	&#13;  every	&#13;  time.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  lucky	&#13;  enough	&#13;  so	&#13;  far	&#13;  
that	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  not	&#13;  been	&#13;  confronted.	&#13;  Everybody	&#13;  is	&#13;  always	&#13;  treating	&#13;  me	&#13;  nice.	&#13;  I	&#13;  haven’t	&#13;  had	&#13;  any	&#13;  
confrontation.	&#13;  One	&#13;  time,	&#13;  a	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  girlfriend,	&#13;  my	&#13;  wife	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  Las	&#13;  Vegas	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  
had	&#13;  a	&#13;  free	&#13;  room	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  week.	&#13;  I	&#13;  flew	&#13;  that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  too,	&#13;  as	&#13;  transgender.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  from	&#13;  slot	&#13;  
machine	&#13;  to	&#13;  slot	&#13;  machine	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  a	&#13;  place	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  through	&#13;  two	&#13;  rows	&#13;  of	&#13;  
slot	&#13;  machines	&#13;  into	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  opening.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  this	&#13;  guy	&#13;  had	&#13;  probably	&#13;  been	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  wait	&#13;  for	&#13;  this,	&#13;  he	&#13;  
tried	&#13;  to	&#13;  cut	&#13;  through	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  did,	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  said	&#13;  “oh	&#13;  excuse	&#13;  me,	&#13;  SIR.”	&#13;  He	&#13;  made	&#13;  sure	&#13;  the	&#13;  
“sir”	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  loud.	&#13;  But	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  blackjack	&#13;  table	&#13;  with	&#13;  other	&#13;  people	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  giving	&#13;  
me	&#13;  this	&#13;  [makes	&#13;  face],	&#13;  but	&#13;  once	&#13;  they	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  personality	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  blended	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  
woodwork.	&#13;  But	&#13;  at	&#13;  first	&#13;  it’s…	&#13;  if	&#13;  people	&#13;  haven’t	&#13;  been	&#13;  around	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  before	&#13;  then	&#13;  
they	&#13;  are	&#13;  usually	&#13;  put	&#13;  off	&#13;  by	&#13;  it.	&#13;  	&#13;

except	&#13;  cousins.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  took	&#13;  me	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time	&#13;  before	&#13;  I	&#13;  ever	&#13;  told	&#13;  my	&#13;  best	&#13;  male	&#13;  friend.	&#13;  [KD:	&#13;  I	&#13;  
complete	&#13;  forgot	&#13;  about	&#13;  our	&#13;  (agreement)!].	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  They	&#13;  are	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  40s	&#13;  now.	&#13;  And	&#13;  my	&#13;  
grandson	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  know,	&#13;  neither	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  grandsons,	&#13;  of	&#13;  course.	&#13;  But	&#13;  our	&#13;  close	&#13;  knit	&#13;  friends,	&#13;  all	&#13;  
the	&#13;  women	&#13;  know.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  close	&#13;  knit	&#13;  couples,	&#13;  the	&#13;  wife	&#13;  has	&#13;  died,	&#13;  the	&#13;  man	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  but	&#13;  
his	&#13;  daughter	&#13;  is	&#13;  homosexual,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  her	&#13;  so	&#13;  bad	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  friends	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  daughters	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  burden	&#13;  them	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  secret.	&#13;  We	&#13;  went	&#13;  down	&#13;  this	&#13;  past	&#13;  weekend,	&#13;  her	&#13;  40th	&#13;  
birthday	&#13;  party	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  is	&#13;  married	&#13;  and	&#13;  has	&#13;  two	&#13;  children,	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  artificially	&#13;  inseminated	&#13;  and	&#13;  
when	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  get	&#13;  to	&#13;  reserve	&#13;  some	&#13;  sperm	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  two	&#13;  children	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  
father.	&#13;  Not	&#13;  only	&#13;  do	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  mother	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  father.	&#13;  So	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  law	&#13;  
was	&#13;  passed	&#13;  [the	&#13;  legalization	&#13;  of	&#13;  marriage	&#13;  equality],	&#13;  her	&#13;  and	&#13;  her	&#13;  long	&#13;  term	&#13;  partner	&#13;  got	&#13;  married	&#13;  
and	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  two	&#13;  children.	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  her	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  knows	&#13;  I	&#13;  support	&#13;  them	&#13;  but	&#13;  she	&#13;  
hasn’t	&#13;  figured	&#13;  out	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  reasons	&#13;  why.	&#13;  But	&#13;  my	&#13;  wife,	&#13;  she	&#13;  is	&#13;  college	&#13;  educated.	&#13;  She	&#13;  is	&#13;  accepting.	&#13;  
She	&#13;  has	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  fear	&#13;  about	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  finding	&#13;  out.	&#13;  It	&#13;  would	&#13;  tear	&#13;  her	&#13;  up.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  we	&#13;  raised	&#13;  our	&#13;  
children	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  very	&#13;  accepting,	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  redneck	&#13;  husbands,	&#13;  so,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
I	&#13;  have	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  son-­‐in-­‐laws	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  ruin	&#13;  the	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  there.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  
they	&#13;  would	&#13;  accept	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  an	&#13;  enabler	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  fun.	&#13;  She	&#13;  is	&#13;  reluctantly	&#13;  accepting	&#13;  except	&#13;  
sometimes	&#13;  she	&#13;  will	&#13;  come	&#13;  home	&#13;  and	&#13;  say	&#13;  “look	&#13;  at	&#13;  this	&#13;  beautiful	&#13;  skirt	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  for	&#13;  you,”	&#13;  so	&#13;  she	&#13;  will	&#13;  
bring	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  home.	&#13;  She	&#13;  always	&#13;  lets	&#13;  me	&#13;  wear	&#13;  her	&#13;  clothes.	&#13;  We	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  size	&#13;  fingers	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  
trade	&#13;  rings.	&#13;  We	&#13;  trade	&#13;  jewelry	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  forth.	&#13;  So	&#13;  even	&#13;  though	&#13;  she	&#13;  is	&#13;  reluctantly	&#13;  accepting	&#13;  
sometimes	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  heaven	&#13;  because	&#13;  she	&#13;  is	&#13;  very	&#13;  accepting	&#13;  but	&#13;  then	&#13;  she	&#13;  goes	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  where	&#13;  she	&#13;  
was,	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  in	&#13;  fear	&#13;  that	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  will	&#13;  find	&#13;  out.	&#13;  	&#13;

�TV:	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  at	&#13;  NC	&#13;  State,	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  pal	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  palled	&#13;  around	&#13;  together.	&#13;  If	&#13;  neither	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  
us	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  date,	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  get	&#13;  together	&#13;  and	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  ball	&#13;  game	&#13;  or	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  together.	&#13;  I	&#13;  asked	&#13;  her,	&#13;  I	&#13;  
said	&#13;  “I’m	&#13;  really	&#13;  looking	&#13;  for	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  really	&#13;  nice	&#13;  to	&#13;  date.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  she	&#13;  brought	&#13;  my	&#13;  wife	&#13;  up.	&#13;  She	&#13;  came	&#13;  
in	&#13;  from	&#13;  another	&#13;  town	&#13;  to	&#13;  Raleigh	&#13;  and	&#13;  when	&#13;  she	&#13;  walked	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  door,	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  
my	&#13;  wife,	&#13;  no	&#13;  doubt.	&#13;  So	&#13;  she	&#13;  was.	&#13;  I	&#13;  only	&#13;  asked	&#13;  one	&#13;  person	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  world	&#13;  to	&#13;  marry	&#13;  me,	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  her,	&#13;  
and	&#13;  she	&#13;  told	&#13;  me	&#13;  “no”	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  anymore	&#13;  asking.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  told	&#13;  her	&#13;  “this	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  
be.	&#13;  We	&#13;  will	&#13;  be	&#13;  married,”	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  did.	&#13;

across	&#13;  Tazi,	&#13;  but	&#13;  Tazi	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  town	&#13;  and	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  job	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  was	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  she	&#13;  
wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  form	&#13;  a	&#13;  group.	&#13;  So	&#13;  she	&#13;  formed	&#13;  Ladies	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Blue	&#13;  Ridge	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  meet	&#13;  over	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;

I	&#13;  stayed	&#13;  with	&#13;  them	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  while	&#13;  but	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  interesting	&#13;  that	&#13;  sometimes	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  power	&#13;  struggle.	&#13;  
I’ve	&#13;  seen	&#13;  a	&#13;  power	&#13;  struggle.	&#13;  People	&#13;  who	&#13;  have	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  never	&#13;  been	&#13;  president	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  group,	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  
a	&#13;  sudden	&#13;  they	&#13;  think	&#13;  “oh	&#13;  man,	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  be	&#13;  president	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  group	&#13;  that	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  
of	&#13;  power.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  just	&#13;  see	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  some	&#13;  people	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  take	&#13;  over	&#13;  the	&#13;  group	&#13;  when	&#13;  
Tazi	&#13;  was	&#13;  moving	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  town	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  backed	&#13;  off.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  board	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  
get	&#13;  off	&#13;  the	&#13;  board.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  tell	&#13;  them	&#13;  why.	&#13;  And	&#13;  sure	&#13;  enough	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  cat	&#13;  fight	&#13;  broke	&#13;  out.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  stayed	&#13;  
friends	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  few	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  girls	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Ladies	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Blue	&#13;  Ridge	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  attend	&#13;  any	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
meetings	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  I	&#13;  see	&#13;  them	&#13;  at	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  in	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park.	&#13;  There	&#13;  is	&#13;  no	&#13;  animosity	&#13;  between	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  
them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  need	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  drama.	&#13;  	&#13;

KD:	&#13;  What	&#13;  change	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  regarding	&#13;  sexual	&#13;  orientation?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
34:35-­‐34:50	&#13;  
[Clarification	&#13;  of	&#13;  question]	&#13;  
	&#13;  
34:50	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  My	&#13;  sexual	&#13;  orientation	&#13;  is	&#13;  heterosexual,	&#13;  okay?	&#13;  Which	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  find	&#13;  strange…	&#13;  [struggles	&#13;  
for	&#13;  the	&#13;  words]…	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  finished	&#13;  a	&#13;  document	&#13;  called	&#13;  “60	&#13;  million	&#13;  reasons	&#13;  why	&#13;  Ted	&#13;  Cruz	&#13;  won’t	&#13;  
become	&#13;  president,	&#13;  ever.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  60	&#13;  million	&#13;  reasons	&#13;  are,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  will	&#13;  name	&#13;  all	&#13;  60	&#13;  million,	&#13;  let’s	&#13;  
assume	&#13;  that	&#13;  5-­‐10%,	&#13;  3-­‐10%	&#13;  of	&#13;  America’s	&#13;  population	&#13;  or	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  the	&#13;  world’s	&#13;  population	&#13;  is	&#13;  LGBT.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
let’s	&#13;  take	&#13;  5%	&#13;  as	&#13;  an	&#13;  easy	&#13;  number.	&#13;  300	&#13;  million	&#13;  Americans.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  take	&#13;  10%	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  30	&#13;  million.	&#13;  Half	&#13;  
of	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  5%,	&#13;  so	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  probably	&#13;  about	&#13;  15	&#13;  million	&#13;  LGBT	&#13;  folk	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  United	&#13;  States.	&#13;  Surprisingly	&#13;  
each	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  have	&#13;  two	&#13;  parents	&#13;  so	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  another	&#13;  30	&#13;  million	&#13;  people.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  15	&#13;  million	&#13;  
transgender	&#13;  or	&#13;  homosexual	&#13;  [people],	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  parents	&#13;  of	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  and	&#13;  homo,	&#13;  and	&#13;  on	&#13;  
average	&#13;  everyone	&#13;  has	&#13;  a	&#13;  brother	&#13;  or	&#13;  sister,	&#13;  so	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  another	&#13;  15	&#13;  million.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  60	&#13;  million	&#13;  
people	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  United	&#13;  States	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  either	&#13;  homosexual,	&#13;  bisexual,	&#13;  transgender,	&#13;  or	&#13;  parents	&#13;  of	&#13;  
homosexual,	&#13;  transgender,	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  on,	&#13;  or	&#13;  brothers	&#13;  and	&#13;  sisters,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  isn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  counting	&#13;  the	&#13;  
children	&#13;  because	&#13;  many	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  and	&#13;  homosexual	&#13;  people	&#13;  have	&#13;  children.	&#13;  So	&#13;  not	&#13;  even	&#13;  
counting	&#13;  those,	&#13;  we’ve	&#13;  got	&#13;  60	&#13;  million	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  reason	&#13;  not	&#13;  to	&#13;  vote	&#13;  for	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  that	&#13;  
says	&#13;  “the	&#13;  first	&#13;  thing	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  wanna	&#13;  do	&#13;  is	&#13;  turn	&#13;  over	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  sex	&#13;  marriage	&#13;  law.”	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  three-­‐page	&#13;  
document.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  see:	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  Christians	&#13;  become	&#13;  Christian.	&#13;  If	&#13;  
you	&#13;  read	&#13;  the	&#13;  New	&#13;  Testament…	&#13;  [rustling	&#13;  paper]	&#13;  I’ll	&#13;  write	&#13;  everything	&#13;  that	&#13;  Jesus	&#13;  said	&#13;  against	&#13;  
homosexuals	&#13;  on	&#13;  this	&#13;  piece	&#13;  of	&#13;  paper…	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  total	&#13;  New	&#13;  Testament	&#13;  that	&#13;  Jesus	&#13;  wrote	&#13;  against	&#13;  
homosexuals:	&#13;  zero.	&#13;  Zero.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  these	&#13;  people	&#13;  who	&#13;  are	&#13;  so	&#13;  homophobic,	&#13;  I	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  them	&#13;  as	&#13;  
being	&#13;  Old	&#13;  Testament	&#13;  Gentiles	&#13;  not	&#13;  Christians,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know?	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  the	&#13;  Christian	&#13;  faith	&#13;  
really	&#13;  become	&#13;  inclusive.	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  America	&#13;  become	&#13;  inclusive	&#13;  and	&#13;  not	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  divide	&#13;  us	&#13;  
up	&#13;  into	&#13;  little	&#13;  boxes	&#13;  and	&#13;  groups,	&#13;  and	&#13;  just	&#13;  accept	&#13;  people	&#13;  for	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  are.	&#13;  Is	&#13;  that…?	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  
if	&#13;  I	&#13;  answered	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  question	&#13;  or	&#13;  not.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
37:35	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  Yes,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  perfect.	&#13;  People	&#13;  sometimes	&#13;  read	&#13;  too	&#13;  deeply	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  Bible	&#13;  [TV:	&#13;  and	&#13;  make	&#13;  up	&#13;  their	&#13;  
own	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  too]	&#13;  Exactly.	&#13;  Make	&#13;  up	&#13;  fillers,	&#13;  tons	&#13;  of	&#13;  fillers.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
37:49	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  it,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  this	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  pastor,	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  about	&#13;  it,	&#13;  before	&#13;  printing	&#13;  
presses,	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  room	&#13;  full	&#13;  of	&#13;  monks	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  start	&#13;  copying	&#13;  the	&#13;  Bible.	&#13;  So	&#13;  they	&#13;  could	&#13;  
hand	&#13;  it	&#13;  out,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  printing	&#13;  press.	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  some	&#13;  editorial	&#13;  comments	&#13;  got	&#13;  in	&#13;  there.	&#13;  
There	&#13;  are	&#13;  only	&#13;  two	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  homosexuality	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  bible,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  Moses	&#13;  and	&#13;  
Paul.	&#13;  Paul	&#13;  talks	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  New	&#13;  Testament,	&#13;  Jesus	&#13;  doesn’t.	&#13;  Are	&#13;  these	&#13;  two	&#13;  homophobes?	&#13;  Did	&#13;  
they	&#13;  really	&#13;  say	&#13;  that?	&#13;  Did	&#13;  the	&#13;  monk	&#13;  who	&#13;  had	&#13;  some	&#13;  problems	&#13;  write	&#13;  this	&#13;  in?	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  
	&#13;

�Bible	&#13;  literally	&#13;  but	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  bible	&#13;  and	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  gather	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  broad	&#13;  
sense,	&#13;  that	&#13;  makes	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  more	&#13;  sense	&#13;  to	&#13;  me	&#13;  rather	&#13;  than	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  use	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  agenda	&#13;  you	&#13;  
have.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  my	&#13;  opinion.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
38:45	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  You	&#13;  could	&#13;  pick	&#13;  anything	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  bible	&#13;  and	&#13;  come	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  your	&#13;  own	&#13;  interpretation.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  
I	&#13;  have	&#13;  but	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  your	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  freely	&#13;  about	&#13;  anything	&#13;  else	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  add	&#13;  or	&#13;  contribute.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
know	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  very	&#13;  broad	&#13;  but	&#13;  anything	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  say.	&#13;

question	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  ask.	&#13;  	&#13;

39:24	&#13;  
	&#13;

because	&#13;  she	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  girl	&#13;  and	&#13;  therefore	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  supposed	&#13;  to	&#13;  dress	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  girl	&#13;  to	&#13;  
please	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents,	&#13;  or	&#13;  my	&#13;  genes	&#13;  such	&#13;  that	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  something	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  brain	&#13;  or	&#13;  something…	&#13;  you	&#13;  
know,	&#13;  when	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  closes	&#13;  their	&#13;  eyes	&#13;  they	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  gender	&#13;  they	&#13;  are.	&#13;  You	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;

are	&#13;  female.	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  bed	&#13;  at	&#13;  night	&#13;  and	&#13;  pray	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  wake	&#13;  up	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  girl	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  
when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  older	&#13;  there	&#13;  must	&#13;  be	&#13;  ovaries	&#13;  or	&#13;  something	&#13;  in	&#13;  here.	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  I	&#13;  	&#13;  was	&#13;  intersexed	&#13;  
	&#13;

�because	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  about	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  So	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  know,	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  
knows	&#13;  why.	&#13;  I	&#13;  thin	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  thing	&#13;  with	&#13;  homosexuals.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  nature	&#13;  or	&#13;  nurture	&#13;  that	&#13;  
makes	&#13;  a	&#13;  person	&#13;  homosexual.	&#13;  Just	&#13;  like	&#13;  what	&#13;  makes	&#13;  a	&#13;  person	&#13;  right-­‐handed	&#13;  or	&#13;  left-­‐handed.	&#13;  Let	&#13;  me	&#13;  
see	&#13;  is	&#13;  there	&#13;  anything	&#13;  else	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  say…?	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  perspective,	&#13;  the	&#13;  funny	&#13;  
part	&#13;  about	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  acceptance…	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  big	&#13;  issue	&#13;  is?	&#13;  
	&#13;  
40:50	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  No.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
40:51	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  bathrooms.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  always	&#13;  bathrooms.	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  that	&#13;  works	&#13;  at	&#13;  NC	&#13;  State	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  is	&#13;  
graduated	&#13;  from	&#13;  NC	&#13;  State	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  finally	&#13;  said	&#13;  “you	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  second	&#13;  floor	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  
family-­‐type	&#13;  bathroom,”	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  men’s	&#13;  or	&#13;  women’s,	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  finally	&#13;  accepted	&#13;  that.	&#13;  You	&#13;  would	&#13;  
never	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  born	&#13;  male.	&#13;  She	&#13;  is	&#13;  fully	&#13;  transitioned	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  the	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  issue	&#13;  is	&#13;  
always	&#13;  an	&#13;  issue.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  putting	&#13;  you	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  spot	&#13;  here,	&#13;  have	&#13;  you	&#13;  ever	&#13;  been	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  bathroom?	&#13;  
[other	&#13;  interviewer	&#13;  Teddy:	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  kid,	&#13;  yeah]	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  walk	&#13;  into	&#13;  a	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  bathroom,	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  
no	&#13;  way	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  voyeur.	&#13;  People	&#13;  think	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  voyeuristic	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  
something.	&#13;  In	&#13;  a	&#13;  man’s	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  you	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  bunch	&#13;  of	&#13;  stalls	&#13;  you	&#13;  all	&#13;  stand	&#13;  there,	&#13;  you	&#13;  stand	&#13;  upside	&#13;  
each	&#13;  other	&#13;  and	&#13;  take	&#13;  a	&#13;  leak,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  no	&#13;  big	&#13;  deal.	&#13;  But	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  private	&#13;  
place.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  funny,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  many	&#13;  women	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  man	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  
commode	&#13;  next	&#13;  to	&#13;  them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  in	&#13;  there	&#13;  for	&#13;  any	&#13;  reason	&#13;  but	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  see	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman	&#13;  taking	&#13;  a	&#13;  young	&#13;  
child	&#13;  in	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  never	&#13;  go	&#13;  behind	&#13;  them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  in,	&#13;  do	&#13;  my	&#13;  business,	&#13;  and	&#13;  get	&#13;  the	&#13;  heck	&#13;  out.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
the	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  issue	&#13;  is	&#13;  really	&#13;  funny,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  joke.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  being	&#13;  legislated	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  by	&#13;  males	&#13;  and	&#13;  males	&#13;  
don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  anything	&#13;  about	&#13;  what’s	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman’s	&#13;  bathroom.	&#13;  You	&#13;  go	&#13;  in,	&#13;  you	&#13;  do	&#13;  your	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
you	&#13;  get	&#13;  the	&#13;  heck	&#13;  out.	&#13;  So	&#13;  the	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  issue	&#13;  is	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  funny.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  someday	&#13;  it	&#13;  will	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  
male/female	&#13;  family	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  a	&#13;  trans	&#13;  or	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  separate	&#13;  bathroom.	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  rather	&#13;  go	&#13;  into	&#13;  a	&#13;  
separate	&#13;  bathroom,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  put	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  ill	&#13;  at	&#13;  ease,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  get	&#13;  any	&#13;  thrill	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  going	&#13;  
into	&#13;  a	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  bathroom.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  into	&#13;  a	&#13;  man’s	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  like	&#13;  this.	&#13;  That	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  be	&#13;  
too	&#13;  bright.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
42:48	&#13;  
	&#13;  
KD:	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  I	&#13;  always	&#13;  noticed	&#13;  that	&#13;  too.	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  never	&#13;  been	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  who	&#13;  
crossdresses.	&#13;  Sometimes	&#13;  men,	&#13;  they	&#13;  dress	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  female,	&#13;  they	&#13;  look	&#13;  just	&#13;  as	&#13;  beautiful	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman.	&#13;  
You	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  tell.	&#13;  
	&#13;  
43:04	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  Right.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  have,	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  like	&#13;  gaydar,	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  “transdar,”	&#13;  but	&#13;  sometimes	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  
tell.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  women	&#13;  in	&#13;  LBR	&#13;  [Ladies	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Blue	&#13;  Ridge],	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  trying	&#13;  
to	&#13;  figure	&#13;  why	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  there,	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  wife	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  people.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  
have	&#13;  met	&#13;  her	&#13;  before,	&#13;  she	&#13;  is	&#13;  very	&#13;  attractive.	&#13;  It	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  very	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  unless	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  really	&#13;  
	&#13;

�looking	&#13;  for	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Are	&#13;  you	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  called	&#13;  The	&#13;  Red	&#13;  Hats	&#13;  group?5	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  older	&#13;  
women	&#13;  who	&#13;  get	&#13;  together	&#13;  for	&#13;  no	&#13;  other	&#13;  reason	&#13;  than	&#13;  to	&#13;  party.	&#13;  They	&#13;  wear	&#13;  red	&#13;  hats	&#13;  and	&#13;  purple	&#13;  
dresses	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  all	&#13;  in	&#13;  their	&#13;  60s,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  invited	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  of	&#13;  times	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  dinner	&#13;  with	&#13;  
them.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  know,	&#13;  some	&#13;  don’t…	&#13;  I	&#13;  sat	&#13;  and	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  an	&#13;  80-­‐year-­‐old	&#13;  woman	&#13;  for	&#13;  an	&#13;  hour	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  
half	&#13;  this	&#13;  far	&#13;  away	&#13;  [showing	&#13;  closeness].	&#13;  She	&#13;  showed	&#13;  me	&#13;  all	&#13;  her	&#13;  grandchildren	&#13;  and	&#13;  great-­‐
grandchildren.	&#13;  We	&#13;  talked	&#13;  for	&#13;  an	&#13;  hour	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  half.	&#13;  I	&#13;  found	&#13;  out	&#13;  from	&#13;  my	&#13;  friend	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  head	&#13;  of	&#13;  
the	&#13;  group,	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “she	&#13;  never	&#13;  knew.”	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  pass.	&#13;  I	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  blend,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  stand	&#13;  
out	&#13;  with	&#13;  pink	&#13;  hair	&#13;  and	&#13;  skinny	&#13;  skirts	&#13;  to	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  all.	&#13;  I	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  blend,	&#13;  I	&#13;  try	&#13;  not	&#13;  to	&#13;  draw	&#13;  attention.	&#13;  
There	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  lady	&#13;  today	&#13;  that	&#13;  showed	&#13;  me	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  here,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  after	&#13;  
an	&#13;  hour	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  half	&#13;  drive	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bathroom,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  asked	&#13;  the	&#13;  lady	&#13;  behind	&#13;  the	&#13;  desk	&#13;  and	&#13;  
an	&#13;  older	&#13;  woman	&#13;  had	&#13;  heard	&#13;  me,	&#13;  probably	&#13;  a	&#13;  teacher	&#13;  had	&#13;  heard	&#13;  me	&#13;  asking,	&#13;  so	&#13;  she	&#13;  came	&#13;  over	&#13;  and	&#13;  
walked	&#13;  alongside	&#13;  and	&#13;  said	&#13;  “go	&#13;  through	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  go	&#13;  back	&#13;  there”	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  if	&#13;  she	&#13;  knew	&#13;  or	&#13;  
not.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  else	&#13;  to	&#13;  tell	&#13;  you.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  another	&#13;  question	&#13;  to	&#13;  ask,	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  fine.	&#13;  	&#13;

KD:	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  have	&#13;  one	&#13;  more	&#13;  actually.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  apologize	&#13;  for	&#13;  my	&#13;  blindness	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  realize	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  
a	&#13;  crossdresser,	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  realize	&#13;  the	&#13;  difference.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  more	&#13;  transgender,	&#13;  corrective	&#13;  
surgery,	&#13;  so	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  getting	&#13;  surgery	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  for	&#13;  another	&#13;  reason.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
45:05	&#13;  
	&#13;  
TV:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  prostate	&#13;  cancer	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  put	&#13;  radioactive	&#13;  seeds	&#13;  in	&#13;  your	&#13;  prostate.	&#13;  That	&#13;  
kills	&#13;  the	&#13;  prostate.	&#13;  Radioactivity	&#13;  is	&#13;  kinda	&#13;  funny:	&#13;  it	&#13;  also	&#13;  causes	&#13;  cancer.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  caused	&#13;  some	&#13;  cancer	&#13;  in	&#13;  
my	&#13;  bladder	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  working	&#13;  on	&#13;  that	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  very	&#13;  minor,	&#13;  everything	&#13;  is	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
have	&#13;  had	&#13;  some	&#13;  surgery.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  had	&#13;  my	&#13;  eyes	&#13;  done,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  had	&#13;  my	&#13;  face	&#13;  lifted,	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  lost	&#13;  weight	&#13;  I	&#13;  
wrinkled	&#13;  up	&#13;  again…	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  had	&#13;  electrolysis	&#13;  for	&#13;  over	&#13;  five	&#13;  years.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  very	&#13;  little	&#13;  hair.	&#13;  I	&#13;  shave	&#13;  
maybe	&#13;  once	&#13;  a	&#13;  month	&#13;  or	&#13;  something	&#13;  like	&#13;  that	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  back,	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  hairs	&#13;  start	&#13;  popping	&#13;  out	&#13;  
every	&#13;  once	&#13;  and	&#13;  a	&#13;  while,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  last	&#13;  Wednesday	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  time	&#13;  in	&#13;  five	&#13;  months	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  them	&#13;  
pull	&#13;  some	&#13;  more	&#13;  hairs	&#13;  out.	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  say	&#13;  transition,	&#13;  have	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  your	&#13;  surgery,	&#13;  have	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  
your	&#13;  transition,	&#13;  well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  tired	&#13;  of	&#13;  having	&#13;  a	&#13;  beard	&#13;  show.	&#13;  If	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  public	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  
want	&#13;  a	&#13;  beard	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  electrolysis	&#13;  for	&#13;  five	&#13;  years	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  had	&#13;  some	&#13;  facial	&#13;  operations.	&#13;

KD:	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  the	&#13;  point	&#13;  is	&#13;  to	&#13;  feel	&#13;  comfortable,	&#13;  fit	&#13;  in,	&#13;  do	&#13;  whatever	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  	&#13;

TV:	&#13;  Yeah,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  closer,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think,	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  become…	&#13;  the	&#13;  further	&#13;  away	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  be	&#13;  from	&#13;  male	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  is	&#13;  
better.	&#13;  Back	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  issue,	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bathroom	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  public	&#13;  place	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  thing	&#13;  I	&#13;

or	&#13;  gay,	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  be	&#13;  committed.	&#13;  And	&#13;  in	&#13;  her	&#13;  situation,	&#13;  her	&#13;  parents	&#13;  put	&#13;  her	&#13;  in	&#13;  therapy.	&#13;  She	&#13;  was	&#13;  
very	&#13;  vocal.	&#13;  She	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  sophomore	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  and	&#13;  very	&#13;  vocal	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  fact	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
lesbian.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  bother	&#13;  me	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  sense	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  feel	&#13;  threatened.	&#13;  Everybody	&#13;  knew	&#13;  her,	&#13;  
everybody	&#13;  liked	&#13;  her	&#13;  other	&#13;  than	&#13;  the	&#13;  fact	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  just	&#13;  would	&#13;  obsess	&#13;  about	&#13;  calling	&#13;  me.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  
wasn’t	&#13;  any,	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  know,	&#13;  there	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  any	&#13;  “shunning”	&#13;  [air	&#13;  quote	&#13;  with	&#13;  fingers]	&#13;  of	&#13;  her.	&#13;  But,	&#13;  
because	&#13;  of	&#13;  her	&#13;  obsession,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  like	&#13;  being	&#13;  around	&#13;  her	&#13;  when	&#13;  she	&#13;  starts	&#13;  obsessing.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  
kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  response	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  Girl	&#13;  Scouts	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  with.	&#13;  She	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  beautiful	&#13;  singing	&#13;  voice.	&#13;  She	&#13;  
played	&#13;  drums	&#13;  incredibly	&#13;  well.	&#13;  	&#13;  And	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  musical	&#13;  group.	&#13;  The	&#13;  campfires	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  
thing,	&#13;  she	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  any	&#13;  problems	&#13;  there,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  part.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  married,	&#13;  she	&#13;  
actually	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  person	&#13;  who,	&#13;  she	&#13;  went	&#13;  around	&#13;  and	&#13;  made	&#13;  sure	&#13;  the	&#13;  corsages	&#13;  were	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  right	&#13;  
people	&#13;  so	&#13;  she	&#13;  took	&#13;  care	&#13;  of	&#13;  that.	&#13;  After	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  the	&#13;  divorce,	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  move	&#13;  back	&#13;  home	&#13;  from	&#13;  where	&#13;  
my	&#13;  ex-­‐husband	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  were	&#13;  living.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  Flint	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Midland	&#13;  area	&#13;  
and	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  still	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Midland	&#13;  area	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  through	&#13;  her	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  become	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  
what	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  Mount	&#13;  Pleasant,	&#13;  since	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  in	&#13;  school.	&#13;  She	&#13;  let	&#13;  me	&#13;  
know	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  Women’s	&#13;  Music	&#13;  Festival	&#13;  which	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  started	&#13;  in	&#13;  ‘74	&#13;  or	&#13;  ‘76.	&#13;  At	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  a	&#13;  junior,	&#13;  a	&#13;  sophomore,	&#13;  a	&#13;  senior	&#13;  in	&#13;  Mount	&#13;  Pleasant	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  women.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  
called	&#13;  the	&#13;  Lyon	&#13;  Street	&#13;  Women	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  collective	&#13;  on	&#13;  Lyon	&#13;  Street.	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  
name	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  And	&#13;  they	&#13;  decided	&#13;  they	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  hear	&#13;  Women’s	&#13;  music.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  tired	&#13;  of	&#13;  listening	&#13;  
to	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  music	&#13;  by	&#13;  men	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  formed	&#13;  a	&#13;  co-­‐op	&#13;  or	&#13;  a	&#13;  collective	&#13;  and	&#13;  got	&#13;  some	&#13;  land	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  
farmer.	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  rent	&#13;  some	&#13;  land	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  farmer	&#13;  and	&#13;  invited	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  women	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  
lesbian,	&#13;  bisexual	&#13;  women	&#13;  making	&#13;  music,	&#13;  through	&#13;  an	&#13;  independent	&#13;  music	&#13;  recording	&#13;  group	&#13;  and	&#13;  
invited	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  concerts	&#13;  and	&#13;  last	&#13;  year	&#13;  or	&#13;  this	&#13;  year	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  last	&#13;  year	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Women’s	&#13;  Music	&#13;  
Festival.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  ran	&#13;  for	&#13;  40	&#13;  years,	&#13;  ‘76	&#13;  to	&#13;  2016,	&#13;  or	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  last	&#13;  year,	&#13;  but	&#13;  any	&#13;  rate	&#13;  it	&#13;  ran	&#13;  for	&#13;  40	&#13;  
years	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  last	&#13;  time	&#13;  was	&#13;  either	&#13;  last	&#13;  year	&#13;  or	&#13;  this	&#13;  year.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  got	&#13;  shut	&#13;  down,	&#13;  surprisingly	&#13;  
enough,	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  transgender	&#13;  issue.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Women’s	&#13;  Festival	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  allow	&#13;  women	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  
grounds	&#13;  that	&#13;  were	&#13;  not	&#13;  female-­‐born	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  stood	&#13;  by	&#13;  that	&#13;  until	&#13;  their	&#13;  performers	&#13;  started	&#13;  
boycotting	&#13;  them	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  get	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  to	&#13;  perform	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  having	&#13;  trouble	&#13;  holding	&#13;  
vendors	&#13;  so	&#13;  finally	&#13;  the	&#13;  organizers	&#13;  just	&#13;  said	&#13;  “that’s	&#13;  enough,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  tired	&#13;  of	&#13;  this”	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  shut	&#13;  it	&#13;  
down.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  something	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  there	&#13;  [when	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  college]	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  
it	&#13;  until	&#13;  after	&#13;  my	&#13;  divorce	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  friend	&#13;  took	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  festival.	&#13;  At	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  first	&#13;  
festival,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  six	&#13;  years,	&#13;  six	&#13;  or	&#13;  seven	&#13;  years	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  one	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  seventh	&#13;  annual	&#13;  
Women’s	&#13;  Music	&#13;  Festival	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  time.	&#13;  	&#13;  
10:45	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  did	&#13;  your	&#13;  friend,	&#13;  when	&#13;  she	&#13;  introduced	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  that	&#13;  did	&#13;  she	&#13;  say	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  
the	&#13;  festival	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while?	&#13;  	&#13;  
10:51	&#13;  
	&#13;

�EW:	&#13;  She	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  every	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  them.	&#13;  She	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  very	&#13;  first	&#13;  one.	&#13;  When	&#13;  it	&#13;  
only	&#13;  cost	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  $10	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  entire	&#13;  weekend.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
11:00	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  And	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  one	&#13;  that	&#13;  invited	&#13;  you	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  seventh?	&#13;  	&#13;  
11:02	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  Mhm	&#13;  	&#13;  
11:04	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  yourself	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  them	&#13;  after	&#13;  that?	&#13;  	&#13;  
11:07	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  three	&#13;  more	&#13;  if	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  mistaken.	&#13;  It	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  blurs	&#13;  together.	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  t-­‐shirts	&#13;  
unfortunately	&#13;  do	&#13;  not	&#13;  say	&#13;  which	&#13;  years	&#13;  they	&#13;  were.	&#13;  They	&#13;  say	&#13;  like	&#13;  “the	&#13;  seventh	&#13;  annual”	&#13;  but	&#13;  they	&#13;  
don’t	&#13;  put	&#13;  a	&#13;  year	&#13;  on	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  t-­‐shirts.	&#13;  	&#13;  It	&#13;  depended	&#13;  on	&#13;  whether	&#13;  I	&#13;  liked	&#13;  what	&#13;  
the	&#13;  image	&#13;  was.	&#13;  Every	&#13;  year	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  change	&#13;  the	&#13;  image	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  t-­‐shirt.	&#13;  	&#13;  
11:34	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  if	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  ask	&#13;  about	&#13;  that	&#13;  person.	&#13;  When	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  realize	&#13;  those	&#13;  
were	&#13;  advances	&#13;  or	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  of	&#13;  her	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend?	&#13;  	&#13;  
11:47	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  of	&#13;  her	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend.	&#13;  In	&#13;  the	&#13;  Girl	&#13;  Scout	&#13;  groups	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  with,	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  active	&#13;  
outdoors.	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  say	&#13;  the	&#13;  majority	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  would’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  labeled	&#13;  tomboys.	&#13;  Our	&#13;  biggest	&#13;  thing	&#13;  was	&#13;  
camping	&#13;  and	&#13;  singing.	&#13;  So	&#13;  we	&#13;  all	&#13;  had	&#13;  crushes	&#13;  on	&#13;  each	&#13;  other.	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  all	&#13;  in	&#13;  love	&#13;  with	&#13;  each	&#13;  other	&#13;  
in	&#13;  some	&#13;  manner.	&#13;  We	&#13;  sent	&#13;  cards	&#13;  to	&#13;  each	&#13;  other	&#13;  that	&#13;  used	&#13;  the	&#13;  word	&#13;  “love"	&#13;  frequently	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
one	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  deep	&#13;  friendship	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  things.	&#13;  We	&#13;  made	&#13;  friendship	&#13;  bracelets	&#13;  for	&#13;  each	&#13;  other.	&#13;  You	&#13;  
could	&#13;  tell	&#13;  who	&#13;  the	&#13;  popular	&#13;  person	&#13;  was	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  number	&#13;  of	&#13;  bracelets	&#13;  on	&#13;  their	&#13;  arm.	&#13;  Again	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  
a	&#13;  threatening	&#13;  environment.	&#13;  As	&#13;  a	&#13;  matter	&#13;  of	&#13;  fact	&#13;  when	&#13;  we	&#13;  heard	&#13;  from	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  troop	&#13;  leaders	&#13;  
that	&#13;  the	&#13;  Girl	&#13;  Scout	&#13;  council	&#13;  was	&#13;  concerned	&#13;  about	&#13;  our	&#13;  particular	&#13;  group	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  afraid	&#13;  
there	&#13;  were	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  tendencies	&#13;  going	&#13;  on,	&#13;  we	&#13;  all	&#13;  laughed.	&#13;  We	&#13;  thought	&#13;  “that’s	&#13;  ridiculous.	&#13;  Of	&#13;  
course	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  true.”	&#13;  
13:04	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  being	&#13;  in	&#13;  Girl	&#13;  Scouts	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  out	&#13;  later	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  an	&#13;  issue	&#13;  with	&#13;  them?	&#13;  Did	&#13;  they	&#13;  
ever	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  you	&#13;  or	&#13;  your	&#13;  friends?	&#13;  	&#13;  
13:11	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  You	&#13;  mean	&#13;  the	&#13;  council?	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;  

6	&#13;  

�13:13	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  they	&#13;  never	&#13;  did.	&#13;  We	&#13;  just	&#13;  blew	&#13;  them	&#13;  off.	&#13;  On	&#13;  top	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  those	&#13;  troop	&#13;  leaders	&#13;  that	&#13;  
were	&#13;  championing	&#13;  us,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  put	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  context	&#13;  of	&#13;  time.	&#13;  This	&#13;  was	&#13;  sex,	&#13;  drugs,	&#13;  and	&#13;  rock	&#13;  
and	&#13;  roll	&#13;  or	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  more	&#13;  hippy	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  love,	&#13;  peace,	&#13;  and	&#13;  rock	&#13;  and	&#13;  roll.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  lots	&#13;  of	&#13;

was	&#13;  appropriate	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  expressing	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  love	&#13;  because	&#13;  our	&#13;  parents	&#13;  couldn’t.	&#13;  They	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  
that	&#13;  open.	&#13;  They	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  that	&#13;  free.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  our	&#13;  attitude	&#13;  that	&#13;  these	&#13;  council	&#13;  women	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  
Girl	&#13;  Scouts	&#13;  were	&#13;  old	&#13;  “fuddy	&#13;  duddys”	&#13;  who	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
14:14	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  that	&#13;  your	&#13;  friend…	&#13;  that	&#13;  her	&#13;  parents	&#13;  put	&#13;  her	&#13;  in	&#13;  therapy,	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
illegal	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time,	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  though	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  usual	&#13;  that	&#13;  would	&#13;  happen	&#13;  as,	&#13;  rather	&#13;  
than	&#13;  ostracizing	&#13;  their	&#13;  child,	&#13;  parents	&#13;  would	&#13;  put	&#13;  them	&#13;  in	&#13;  therapy	&#13;  and	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  press	&#13;  it	&#13;  down	&#13;  or…	&#13;  	&#13;  
14:36	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  It	&#13;  depended	&#13;  on	&#13;  how	&#13;  “out”	&#13;  a	&#13;  person	&#13;  was	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  vocal	&#13;  and	&#13;  because	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  
vocal	&#13;  about	&#13;  it,	&#13;  her	&#13;  parents	&#13;  asked	&#13;  her	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  therapy	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  choice.	&#13;  She	&#13;  
was	&#13;  under	&#13;  age.	&#13;  She	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  emancipated	&#13;  or	&#13;  anything,	&#13;  and	&#13;  being	&#13;  committed	&#13;  we	&#13;  heard	&#13;  stories.	&#13;  
We	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  personally.	&#13;  The	&#13;  closest	&#13;  we	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  her	&#13;  and	&#13;  [her]	&#13;  having	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  
to	&#13;  therapy	&#13;  for	&#13;  it.	&#13;  	&#13;  
15:07	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  never	&#13;  felt	&#13;  like	&#13;  you	&#13;  faced	&#13;  that	&#13;  threat	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  younger?	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
15:12	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  bisexual	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  things	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  out	&#13;  there,”	&#13;  but	&#13;  my	&#13;  
parents	&#13;  never	&#13;  talked	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  two	&#13;  P.E.	&#13;  teachers,	&#13;  physical	&#13;  ed[ucation]	&#13;  teachers,	&#13;  in	&#13;  
my	&#13;  high	&#13;  school—no,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  junior	&#13;  high	&#13;  school—that	&#13;  evidently	&#13;  lived	&#13;  together	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  
heard	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  school	&#13;  say	&#13;  anything	&#13;  about	&#13;  that.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  “oh,	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  lived	&#13;  together,	&#13;  so	&#13;  
what?”	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  so	&#13;  underground	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  even	&#13;  whispered	&#13;  about.	&#13;  It	&#13;  
just	&#13;  never	&#13;  occurred	&#13;  to	&#13;  anybody.	&#13;  She	&#13;  [her	&#13;  friend]	&#13;  was	&#13;  carrying	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  too	&#13;  much	&#13;  with	&#13;  her	&#13;  girl	&#13;  
crush.	&#13;  	&#13;  
16:14	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  identify	&#13;  as	&#13;  bisexual,	&#13;  could	&#13;  I	&#13;  ask	&#13;  you	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  out?	&#13;  	&#13;  
16:22	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  In	&#13;  ‘82,	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  divorce	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  living	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  Midland	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  friend…	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
working	&#13;  the	&#13;  second	&#13;  shift	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  nurse	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  means	&#13;  I	&#13;  worked	&#13;  from	&#13;  7pm	&#13;  until	&#13;  11pm	&#13;  which	&#13;  made	&#13;  it	&#13;  
very	&#13;  hard	&#13;  to	&#13;  socialize.	&#13;  The	&#13;  only	&#13;  place	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  go	&#13;  was	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bars	&#13;  afterwards	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  
socialize	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  By	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  get	&#13;  up	&#13;  around	&#13;  8	&#13;  or	&#13;  9[am]	&#13;  and	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  
get	&#13;  ready	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  work	&#13;  and	&#13;  if	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  anything	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  occur	&#13;  between	&#13;  5	&#13;  and	&#13;  7[pm]	&#13;

�and	&#13;  most	&#13;  people	&#13;  were	&#13;  eating	&#13;  supper	&#13;  then.	&#13;  They	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  start	&#13;  doing	&#13;  anything	&#13;  until	&#13;  7	&#13;  o’clock.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
basically,	&#13;  I	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  living	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  family,	&#13;  divorced,	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  in	&#13;  town	&#13;  because	&#13;  
everybody	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  had	&#13;  left,	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  friend	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  who,	&#13;  because	&#13;  she	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  
working	&#13;  a	&#13;  job,	&#13;  or	&#13;  a	&#13;  steady	&#13;  job,	&#13;  could	&#13;  come	&#13;  and	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  me.	&#13;  After	&#13;  a	&#13;  certain	&#13;  amount	&#13;  of	&#13;  time	&#13;  she	&#13;  
just	&#13;  said	&#13;  “I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  this	&#13;  anymore.	&#13;  Either	&#13;  we	&#13;  become	&#13;  lovers	&#13;  or	&#13;  I	&#13;  leave.”	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
thought,	&#13;  she’s	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  person	&#13;  I	&#13;  know.	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  position	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  no	&#13;  to	&#13;  love,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  told	&#13;  her	&#13;  “okay,	&#13;  	&#13;  
If	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  do	&#13;  this,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  get	&#13;  therapy,”	&#13;  so	&#13;  we	&#13;  started	&#13;  couples’	&#13;  therapy	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  social	&#13;  
worker	&#13;  friend	&#13;  of	&#13;  hers	&#13;  which	&#13;  worked	&#13;  out	&#13;  very	&#13;  well	&#13;  in	&#13;  terms	&#13;  of	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  easy	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  along	&#13;  with	&#13;  her	&#13;  
[the	&#13;  therapist]	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  understood.	&#13;  	&#13;  The	&#13;  therapy	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  move	&#13;  because	&#13;  it	&#13;  turned	&#13;  out	&#13;  my	&#13;  
friend	&#13;  was	&#13;  alcoholic,	&#13;  which	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  recognize,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  like	&#13;  oil	&#13;  and	&#13;  water.	&#13;  We	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  mix	&#13;  
well.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  32	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  decided	&#13;  “okay.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  actually	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  choice.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
can	&#13;  choose	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  heterosexual	&#13;  or	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  choose	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  homosexual.	&#13;  When	&#13;  religious	&#13;  people	&#13;  talk	&#13;

EW:	&#13;  Not	&#13;  a	&#13;  backlash	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  sense	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  open	&#13;  about	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Let’s	&#13;  see	&#13;  where	&#13;  shall	&#13;  we	&#13;  start?	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
living	&#13;  in	&#13;  Midland.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  Midland	&#13;  whatsoever.	&#13;  The	&#13;  closest	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
community	&#13;  was	&#13;  20	&#13;  –	&#13;  30	&#13;  minutes	&#13;  away	&#13;  in	&#13;  Bay	&#13;  City	&#13;  or	&#13;  Saginaw,	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  form	&#13;  of	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bars	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  
basically	&#13;  all	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  available.	&#13;  And	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  really	&#13;  disappointing	&#13;  too	&#13;  because	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bars	&#13;  
were	&#13;  male	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bars	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  this	&#13;  techno	&#13;  beat	&#13;  to	&#13;  them.	&#13;  My	&#13;  lover	&#13;  and	&#13;  I,	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  down	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Lansing,	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  two	&#13;  hours	&#13;  away,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  bars	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  
played	&#13;  a	&#13;  variety	&#13;  of	&#13;  music,	&#13;  so	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  all	&#13;  boom	&#13;  boom	&#13;  boom.	&#13;  And	&#13;  she	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  liked	&#13;  dancing	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  
could	&#13;  dance	&#13;  to	&#13;  that	&#13;  [the	&#13;  music	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  bars].	&#13;  We’d	&#13;  go	&#13;  over	&#13;  to	&#13;  Saginaw	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  
approach	&#13;  the	&#13;  DJ	&#13;  about	&#13;  playing	&#13;  something	&#13;  else	&#13;  and	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  what	&#13;  we	&#13;  always	&#13;  play.”	&#13;  “Okay.”	&#13;

because	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  married	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  things	&#13;  like	&#13;  “love”	&#13;  and	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  like	&#13;  that	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  aware	&#13;  
of	&#13;  it	&#13;  because	&#13;  she	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  to	&#13;  therapy.	&#13;  She	&#13;  knew	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  things	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  She	&#13;  would	&#13;  
remind	&#13;  me	&#13;  afterwards,	&#13;  “you	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  see	&#13;  the	&#13;  look	&#13;  that	&#13;  clerk	&#13;  gave	&#13;  us.	&#13;  Did	&#13;  you	&#13;  realize	&#13;  you	&#13;  said	&#13;

and	&#13;  realized	&#13;  that	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  concerned	&#13;  then	&#13;  he	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  went	&#13;  “you	&#13;  mean	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  ok?	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  
alright?	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  this	&#13;  is	&#13;  just	&#13;  wonderful!”	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  dad	&#13;  said	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  happiest	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  seen	&#13;  my	&#13;

�brother	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  long	&#13;  time,	&#13;  not	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  saw	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  him.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  half	&#13;  a	&#13;  continent	&#13;  
away	&#13;  from	&#13;  each	&#13;  other,	&#13;  but	&#13;  he	&#13;  had	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  them	&#13;  before	&#13;  I	&#13;  became	&#13;  involved,	&#13;  a	&#13;  good	&#13;  three	&#13;  
years	&#13;  before	&#13;  I	&#13;  became	&#13;  involved	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  lover.	&#13;  And	&#13;  for	&#13;  me,	&#13;  honestly,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  harder	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  
accept	&#13;  that	&#13;  my	&#13;  older	&#13;  brother	&#13;  was	&#13;  gay.	&#13;  It	&#13;  took	&#13;  me	&#13;  48	&#13;  hours	&#13;  to	&#13;  figure	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  okay.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  
repulsion	&#13;  originally	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  all	&#13;  due	&#13;  to	&#13;  sexual	&#13;  practices,	&#13;  so	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  on	&#13;  my	&#13;  part,	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  
my	&#13;  brother	&#13;  was	&#13;  concerned,	&#13;  a	&#13;  resistance.	&#13;  Didn’t	&#13;  voice	&#13;  it	&#13;  to	&#13;  him,	&#13;  never	&#13;  have,	&#13;  because	&#13;  he	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  
there	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  affect	&#13;  our	&#13;  relationship.	&#13;  I	&#13;  talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  younger	&#13;  brother	&#13;  about	&#13;  it	&#13;  because	&#13;  my	&#13;  
younger	&#13;  brother	&#13;  knew	&#13;  earlier	&#13;  than	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents.	&#13;  He	&#13;  had	&#13;  gone	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  visit	&#13;  my	&#13;  older	&#13;  brother	&#13;  and	&#13;  
my	&#13;  older	&#13;  brother	&#13;  was	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  relaxed	&#13;  with	&#13;  him,	&#13;  just	&#13;  took	&#13;  him	&#13;  around.	&#13;  It	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  take	&#13;  long	&#13;  for	&#13;  
my	&#13;  younger	&#13;  brother	&#13;  to	&#13;  figure	&#13;  out	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  on.	&#13;  	&#13;  
So,	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  coming	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  family,	&#13;  that	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  more	&#13;  or	&#13;  less	&#13;  happened,	&#13;  not	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  out	&#13;  
and	&#13;  said	&#13;  it,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  know.	&#13;  Is	&#13;  this	&#13;  a	&#13;  passing	&#13;  fad?	&#13;  Is	&#13;  this	&#13;  a	&#13;  desperation	&#13;  act	&#13;  because	&#13;  
I’m	&#13;  all	&#13;  alone	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  thing	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  have	&#13;  is	&#13;  my	&#13;  friend	&#13;  who	&#13;  says	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  sexual	&#13;  partners	&#13;  or	&#13;  
she’s	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  leave?	&#13;  But	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  an	&#13;  alcoholic.	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  say	&#13;  about	&#13;  eight	&#13;  months	&#13;  after	&#13;  
trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  through	&#13;  therapy,	&#13;  we	&#13;  quit	&#13;  each	&#13;  other,	&#13;  we	&#13;  called	&#13;  it	&#13;  quits.	&#13;  I	&#13;  called	&#13;  it	&#13;  quits.	&#13;  I	&#13;  continued	&#13;  
to	&#13;  see	&#13;  the	&#13;  therapist	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said,	&#13;  “you	&#13;  really	&#13;  shouldn’t	&#13;  be	&#13;  staying	&#13;  here	&#13;  [Midland]	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  
be	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community.	&#13;  One,	&#13;  the	&#13;  job	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  is	&#13;  isolating	&#13;  and	&#13;  two,	&#13;  there’s	&#13;  
nothing	&#13;  here.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  while	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  Mount	&#13;  Pleasant,	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  school,	&#13;  decided	&#13;  that	&#13;  
wasn’t	&#13;  working	&#13;  even	&#13;  though	&#13;  the	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community	&#13;  was	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  there	&#13;  in	&#13;  terms	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  festival.	&#13;  
The	&#13;  women	&#13;  organizing	&#13;  the	&#13;  festival	&#13;  had	&#13;  all	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  California.	&#13;  They	&#13;  would	&#13;  come	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
summer	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  organize	&#13;  the	&#13;  festival	&#13;  so	&#13;  there	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  a	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  Mount	&#13;  Pleasant	&#13;  
either.	&#13;  And	&#13;  talking	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  therapist	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  decided	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  time	&#13;  to	&#13;  move	&#13;  to	&#13;  Lansing.	&#13;  The	&#13;  capital	&#13;  had	&#13;  
a	&#13;  very	&#13;  strong	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  back	&#13;  at	&#13;  school	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  some	&#13;  
graduate	&#13;  work	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  by	&#13;  accident	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  
of	&#13;  like	&#13;  “oh,	&#13;  okay.”	&#13;  Although	&#13;  I	&#13;  think,	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  my	&#13;  dad	&#13;  was	&#13;  disappointed	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  sense	&#13;  that	&#13;  my	&#13;  older	&#13;  
brother	&#13;  was	&#13;  gay,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  gay,	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  younger	&#13;  brother	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  seem	&#13;  to	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  marry	&#13;  anybody,	&#13;  so	&#13;  
my	&#13;  dad	&#13;  was	&#13;  wanting	&#13;  grandchildren	&#13;  and	&#13;  he	&#13;  really	&#13;  felt	&#13;  regretful	&#13;  about	&#13;  that.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  very	&#13;  unusual	&#13;  
in	&#13;  the	&#13;  fact	&#13;  that	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents	&#13;  were	&#13;  so	&#13;  accepting	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  heard	&#13;  so	&#13;  many	&#13;  other	&#13;  stories	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  
way	&#13;  friends	&#13;  were	&#13;  treated	&#13;  by	&#13;  their	&#13;  family.	&#13;  My	&#13;  parents	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  unusual,	&#13;  very	&#13;  special	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  
fact.	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  favorite	&#13;  past	&#13;  times,	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  got	&#13;  together	&#13;  with	&#13;  other	&#13;  friends,	&#13;  was	&#13;  your	&#13;  coming	&#13;  
out	&#13;  story	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’d	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  your	&#13;  parents	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  heard	&#13;  lots	&#13;  and	&#13;  
lots	&#13;  of	&#13;  stories.	&#13;  	&#13;  
27:49	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  When	&#13;  you	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  talk	&#13;  to	&#13;  your	&#13;  parents,	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  feel	&#13;  any	&#13;  anxiety	&#13;  or	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  already	&#13;  feel	&#13;  
comforted	&#13;  by	&#13;  your	&#13;  older	&#13;  brother?	&#13;  	&#13;  
27:55	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  see	&#13;  what	&#13;  had	&#13;  happened	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom	&#13;  and	&#13;  dad	&#13;  were	&#13;  supposed	&#13;  to	&#13;  meet	&#13;  me	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
university	&#13;  town	&#13;  in	&#13;  Mount	&#13;  Pleasant	&#13;  for	&#13;  supper	&#13;  before	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  see	&#13;  a	&#13;  comedian,	&#13;  a	&#13;  
political	&#13;  comedian	&#13;  in	&#13;  Mount	&#13;  Pleasant.	&#13;  My	&#13;  lover	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  it,	&#13;  when	&#13;  we	&#13;  bought	&#13;  
tickets	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  dad,	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom,	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents	&#13;  showed	&#13;  up	&#13;  early	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  left	&#13;  our	&#13;  clothes	&#13;  all	&#13;  along	&#13;  
to	&#13;  the	&#13;  bedroom	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  invite	&#13;  them	&#13;  in.	&#13;  I’m,	&#13;  like,	&#13;  looking	&#13;  out	&#13;  the	&#13;  door,	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  door	&#13;  
	&#13;  

9	&#13;  

�cracked	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know.	&#13;  I	&#13;  hadn’t	&#13;  said	&#13;  anything	&#13;  to	&#13;  them.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  it	&#13;  
was	&#13;  [to	&#13;  them],	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  about	&#13;  my	&#13;  first	&#13;  lover.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend,	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  who	&#13;  I’d	&#13;  known	&#13;  
in	&#13;  college.	&#13;  Both	&#13;  situations—and	&#13;  actually	&#13;  my	&#13;  second	&#13;  lover	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  in	&#13;  college.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  
standing	&#13;  there	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  door	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  cracked,	&#13;  looking	&#13;  at	&#13;  my	&#13;  dad	&#13;  saying	&#13;  “Dad,	&#13;  we’ll	&#13;  meet	&#13;  you	&#13;  at	&#13;  
the	&#13;  restaurant,	&#13;  if	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  okay	&#13;  with	&#13;  you”	&#13;  and	&#13;  Dad’s	&#13;  like	&#13;  “okay,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  left	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  closed	&#13;  the	&#13;  door	&#13;  
and	&#13;  my	&#13;  lover	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  fell	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  floor	&#13;  laughing.	&#13;  When	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  restaurant	&#13;  I	&#13;  basically	&#13;  
explained	&#13;  why	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  bring	&#13;  them	&#13;  in.	&#13;  Here’s	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  clothes	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom	&#13;  and	&#13;  dad	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  
of	&#13;  smiled.	&#13;  I	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  feel	&#13;  any	&#13;  stress.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  laughable	&#13;  matter.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  very	&#13;  very	&#13;  lucky.	&#13;  My	&#13;  parents	&#13;  
were	&#13;  very	&#13;  unusual.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
29:46	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  found	&#13;  your	&#13;  second	&#13;  lover	&#13;  at	&#13;  college.	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  feel	&#13;  like	&#13;  the	&#13;  college	&#13;  
scene	&#13;  was	&#13;  more	&#13;  accepting?	&#13;  Were	&#13;  you	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  show	&#13;  outward	&#13;  affection	&#13;  or	&#13;  was	&#13;  it	&#13;  still	&#13;  that	&#13;  same…	&#13;  	&#13;  
29:57	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  No.	&#13;  We	&#13;  are	&#13;  still	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  Mount	&#13;  Pleasant	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  conservative,	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  
conservative	&#13;  town,	&#13;  surrounded	&#13;  by	&#13;  corn	&#13;  fields,	&#13;  just	&#13;  farm,	&#13;  not	&#13;  city.	&#13;  Cities	&#13;  are	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  
accepting.	&#13;  Farm	&#13;  areas	&#13;  are	&#13;  very	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  and	&#13;  my	&#13;  second	&#13;  lover	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  from	&#13;  my	&#13;  first	&#13;  
college	&#13;  years.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  now	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  fairly	&#13;  certain	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian.	&#13;  Even	&#13;  then	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  that,	&#13;  but	&#13;  
we	&#13;  were	&#13;  friends,	&#13;  same	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  no	&#13;  sense	&#13;  whatsoever	&#13;  of	&#13;  stress,	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  friends.	&#13;  	&#13;  
30:49	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  That	&#13;  sounds	&#13;  actually	&#13;  really	&#13;  nice,	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  it?	&#13;  	&#13;  
30:51	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  look	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  listen	&#13;  to	&#13;  other	&#13;  people	&#13;  talk	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  just	&#13;  plain	&#13;  lucky	&#13;  or	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents	&#13;  were	&#13;  
just	&#13;  very	&#13;  unusual.	&#13;  	&#13;  And	&#13;  you	&#13;  also	&#13;  asked	&#13;  about	&#13;  religion.	&#13;  So	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  experience,	&#13;  with	&#13;  religion	&#13;  I	&#13;  grew	&#13;  
up	&#13;  United	&#13;  Methodist,	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  the	&#13;  Methodist	&#13;  church,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  into	&#13;  religion.	&#13;  
My	&#13;  favorite	&#13;  book,	&#13;  even	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  child,	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  age	&#13;  of	&#13;  6	&#13;  or	&#13;  7,	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  parent’s	&#13;  coffee	&#13;  table	&#13;  book	&#13;  that	&#13;  
was	&#13;  a	&#13;  Life-­‐Time	&#13;  magazine	&#13;  The	&#13;  Worlds	&#13;  of	&#13;  Religion.1	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  covered	&#13;  in	&#13;  all	&#13;  these	&#13;  beautiful	&#13;  pictures	&#13;  
and	&#13;  told	&#13;  about	&#13;  different	&#13;  religions.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  7	&#13;  or	&#13;  8,	&#13;  like	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  or	&#13;  second	&#13;  grade	&#13;  and	&#13;  
again	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  baby	&#13;  boom,	&#13;  so	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  three…	&#13;  The	&#13;  church	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  seated	&#13;  1,000	&#13;  
members	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  three	&#13;  first	&#13;  and	&#13;  second	&#13;  grade	&#13;  rooms	&#13;  for	&#13;  Sunday	&#13;  school,	&#13;  which	&#13;  means	&#13;  
there	&#13;  were	&#13;  10	&#13;  or	&#13;  15	&#13;  kids	&#13;  in	&#13;  each	&#13;  room	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  won	&#13;  a	&#13;  Bible	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  verses.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  
always	&#13;  been	&#13;  interested	&#13;  in	&#13;  religion	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  college,	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  talking	&#13;  late	&#13;  ‘60s	&#13;  early	&#13;  ‘70s,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
charismatic	&#13;  movement	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  Roman	&#13;  Catholic	&#13;  Church,	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  basically	&#13;  a	&#13;  Roman	&#13;  Catholic	&#13;  
version	&#13;  of	&#13;  Pentecostal.	&#13;  Pentecostal	&#13;  being	&#13;  what	&#13;  some	&#13;  people	&#13;  would	&#13;  call	&#13;  “Holy	&#13;  rollers,”	&#13;  prayer	&#13;  
and	&#13;  praise,	&#13;  raising	&#13;  your	&#13;  hands	&#13;  and	&#13;  singing,	&#13;  doing	&#13;  harmonies,	&#13;  that	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  Since	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
more	&#13;  moderate	&#13;  Pentecostal	&#13;  [the	&#13;  charismatic	&#13;  movement],	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  falling	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  floor	&#13;  
and	&#13;  fainting,	&#13;  being	&#13;  struck	&#13;  down	&#13;  by	&#13;  the	&#13;  spirit	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  stuff,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  feel	&#13;  the	&#13;  presence	&#13;  of	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;  

	&#13;  Perhaps	&#13;  The	&#13;  World’s	&#13;  Great	&#13;  Religions,	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  published	&#13;  in	&#13;  1957.	&#13;  
10	&#13;  

�something	&#13;  moving	&#13;  through	&#13;  the	&#13;  room	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  harmonies.	&#13;  However,	&#13;  it	&#13;  being	&#13;  Pentecostal,	&#13;  
evangelical,	&#13;  Bible	&#13;  based,	&#13;  it	&#13;  had	&#13;  stereotypes	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  women	&#13;  do	&#13;  and	&#13;  what	&#13;  men	&#13;  do.	&#13;  	&#13;  
When	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Lansing,	&#13;  as	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian—and,	&#13;  because	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  you	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  talk	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
women’s	&#13;  community	&#13;  about	&#13;  being	&#13;  bisexual—Lansing	&#13;  was,	&#13;  still	&#13;  is,	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  strong	&#13;  feminist	&#13;  area	&#13;  and	&#13;  
there	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  separatists	&#13;  that	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  do	&#13;  things	&#13;  with	&#13;  men	&#13;  if	&#13;  they	&#13;  could	&#13;  avoid	&#13;  it.	&#13;  If	&#13;  
they	&#13;  had	&#13;  something	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  repaired,	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  look	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  female	&#13;  electrician	&#13;  or	&#13;  a	&#13;  female	&#13;  
plumber,	&#13;  or	&#13;  a	&#13;  female	&#13;  construction	&#13;  boss.	&#13;  They	&#13;  went	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  their	&#13;  way	&#13;  to	&#13;  employ	&#13;  women	&#13;  
whenever	&#13;  they	&#13;  could	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  only	&#13;  tolerated	&#13;  working	&#13;  with	&#13;  men	&#13;  when	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  to.	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  just	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  say	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  bisexual.	&#13;  You	&#13;  were	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  or	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  man	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  it,	&#13;  those	&#13;  
two	&#13;  things.	&#13;  So	&#13;  here	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  situation	&#13;  where	&#13;  I	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  church	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t,	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  sense	&#13;  if	&#13;  
I’m	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  honest	&#13;  as	&#13;  to	&#13;  who	&#13;  I	&#13;  am—and	&#13;  my	&#13;  dad	&#13;  was	&#13;  painfully	&#13;  honest,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  grew	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  you	&#13;  
tell	&#13;  the	&#13;  truth	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  such	&#13;  a	&#13;  thing	&#13;  as	&#13;  lying	&#13;  by	&#13;  omission.	&#13;  If	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  thinks	&#13;  something	&#13;  of	&#13;  
you	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  the	&#13;  truth,	&#13;  you	&#13;  correct	&#13;  them—So	&#13;  I	&#13;  couldn’t	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  church	&#13;  and	&#13;  expect	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  accepted	&#13;  by	&#13;  them,	&#13;  by	&#13;  charismatic	&#13;  groups.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  church	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to.	&#13;  
And	&#13;  in	&#13;  ‘86,	&#13;  the	&#13;  Challenger	&#13;  disaster,	&#13;  the	&#13;  space	&#13;  shuttle	&#13;  blew	&#13;  up,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  some	&#13;  place	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  
and	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  that	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  women	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  had	&#13;  said	&#13;  that	&#13;  she	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  Quaker,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  
ask[ed]	&#13;  her	&#13;  if	&#13;  she	&#13;  thought—not	&#13;  knowing	&#13;  what	&#13;  Quakers	&#13;  did,	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  circle,	&#13;  in	&#13;  silence,	&#13;  
waiting	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  message	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  Spirit—So	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  to	&#13;  her,	&#13;  “do	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  anybody’s	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk,	&#13;  or	&#13;  
will	&#13;  there	&#13;  be	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  Challenger	&#13;  disaster?”	&#13;  She	&#13;  hesitated	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “maybe.”	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  
me	&#13;  not	&#13;  knowing	&#13;  what	&#13;  un-­‐programmed,	&#13;  silent	&#13;  meetings	&#13;  were	&#13;  like.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  and	&#13;  interestingly	&#13;  
enough,	&#13;  someone	&#13;  stood	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  spoke	&#13;  about	&#13;  Judy	&#13;  Resnik,	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  female	&#13;  astronaut	&#13;  
[besides	&#13;  Christa	&#13;  McAuliffe	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  also	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  Challenger]	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  liked	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  
on.	&#13;  I	&#13;  stayed	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  potluck.	&#13;  	&#13;  
I	&#13;  started	&#13;  coming	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  those	&#13;  groups	&#13;  and	&#13;  at	&#13;  one	&#13;  point,	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  the	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  permanent	&#13;  house,	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  renting	&#13;  a	&#13;  room	&#13;  from	&#13;  another	&#13;  church	&#13;  
and	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  potlucks	&#13;  but	&#13;  it’d	&#13;  be	&#13;  in	&#13;  people’s	&#13;  homes.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  couple	&#13;  potlucks	&#13;  and	&#13;  
I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  about	&#13;  the	&#13;  third	&#13;  potluck,	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  all	&#13;  finished	&#13;  eating	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  men	&#13;  picked	&#13;  up	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  
dishes,	&#13;  took	&#13;  them	&#13;  into	&#13;  kitchen	&#13;  and	&#13;  started	&#13;  cleaning	&#13;  and	&#13;  all	&#13;  the	&#13;  women	&#13;  got	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  
living	&#13;  room	&#13;  and	&#13;  started	&#13;  talking	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  to	&#13;  myself	&#13;  “I	&#13;  can	&#13;  do	&#13;  this.”	&#13;  So	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  
ever	&#13;  since,	&#13;  I’ve	&#13;  been	&#13;  attending	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  meetings	&#13;  ever	&#13;  since.	&#13;  At	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  liberal	&#13;  Quakers	&#13;  were	&#13;  
having	&#13;  problems	&#13;  with	&#13;  how	&#13;  do	&#13;  we	&#13;  deal	&#13;  with	&#13;  our	&#13;  gay	&#13;  members?	&#13;  How	&#13;  do	&#13;  we	&#13;  handle	&#13;  [it]?	&#13;  Do	&#13;  we	&#13;  
accept	&#13;  them?	&#13;  Do	&#13;  we	&#13;  actually	&#13;  minute	&#13;  something	&#13;  saying	&#13;  welcome?	&#13;  Is	&#13;  that	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  would	&#13;  
be	&#13;  helpful?	&#13;  Is	&#13;  it	&#13;  something	&#13;  we	&#13;  as	&#13;  Quakers	&#13;  should	&#13;  be	&#13;  doing?	&#13;  And	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  causing	&#13;  a	&#13;  bit	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  
division	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  those	&#13;  that	&#13;  said	&#13;  “no.	&#13;  There	&#13;  
should	&#13;  be	&#13;  no	&#13;  special	&#13;  minute	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  coming	&#13;  to	&#13;  worship	&#13;  with	&#13;  us.	&#13;  Besides,	&#13;  
we	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  seen	&#13;  endorsing	&#13;  that	&#13;  lifestyle.”	&#13;  And	&#13;  then	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  those	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  saying	&#13;  
“everybody’s	&#13;  equal,”	&#13;  which	&#13;  goes	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  Equality	&#13;  Testimony	&#13;  of	&#13;  Quakers.2	&#13;  So	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
late	&#13;  ‘80s.	&#13;  At	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  time,	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  ‘80s,	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  crisis	&#13;  was	&#13;  happening.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  
persecution,	&#13;  verbal	&#13;  persecution,	&#13;  and	&#13;  physical	&#13;  violence	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  against	&#13;  gay	&#13;  men.	&#13;  So	&#13;  the	&#13;  issue	&#13;  
on	&#13;  whether	&#13;  the	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  welcoming	&#13;  to	&#13;  gays	&#13;  had	&#13;  political	&#13;  ramifications,	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

�particularly	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  talk	&#13;  about	&#13;  having	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  identified	&#13;  as	&#13;  carrying	&#13;  the	&#13;  
AIDS	&#13;  virus	&#13;  be	&#13;  put	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  special	&#13;  camp.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  those	&#13;  extreme	&#13;  talks.	&#13;  	&#13;

EW:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  lesbian.	&#13;  All	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  was	&#13;  keep	&#13;  my	&#13;  mouth	&#13;  shut.	&#13;  	&#13;

TP:	&#13;  [Did]	&#13;  that	&#13;  affect	&#13;  how	&#13;  you	&#13;  felt	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time?	&#13;  Did	&#13;  you	&#13;  ever	&#13;  feel	&#13;  or	&#13;  worry	&#13;  that	&#13;  that	&#13;  persecution	&#13;  
would	&#13;  switch	&#13;  over	&#13;  to	&#13;  all	&#13;  homosexual	&#13;  members?	&#13;  	&#13;  
39:17	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  We	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  it.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  community…	&#13;  	&#13;  
39:22-­‐40:28	&#13;  	&#13;  
Paused	&#13;  as	&#13;  asked	&#13;  by	&#13;  Ms.	&#13;  Edna,	&#13;  due	&#13;  to	&#13;  tears	&#13;  interrupting	&#13;  the	&#13;  interview.	&#13;  	&#13;  
40:29	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  The	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  aware	&#13;  of	&#13;  it,	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  choice.	&#13;  They	&#13;  could	&#13;  choose	&#13;  
just	&#13;  to	&#13;  keep	&#13;  their	&#13;  mouth	&#13;  shut	&#13;  because	&#13;  lesbians	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  get	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  Statistically,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
just	&#13;  negligible,	&#13;  we	&#13;  just	&#13;  simply	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  a	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  crisis.	&#13;  We	&#13;  could	&#13;  choose	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  silent	&#13;  and	&#13;  
be	&#13;  invisible	&#13;  and	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  would	&#13;  say	&#13;  anything.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  funny	&#13;  because	&#13;  this	&#13;  was	&#13;  never	&#13;  verbalized.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  
simply	&#13;  noticed	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Nationally,	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  feeling.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  never	&#13;  verbalized.	&#13;  The	&#13;  women	&#13;  
could	&#13;  just	&#13;  choose	&#13;  to	&#13;  divorce	&#13;  themselves	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  homosexual	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  terms	&#13;  that	&#13;  
homosexuals	&#13;  are	&#13;  men.	&#13;  That	&#13;  goes	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  part	&#13;  about	&#13;  being	&#13;  invisible.	&#13;  Lesbians	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  
invisible.	&#13;  	&#13;  
The	&#13;  men,	&#13;  being	&#13;  men,	&#13;  well,	&#13;  I	&#13;  suppose	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  inappropriate,	&#13;  the	&#13;  experience	&#13;  had	&#13;  been	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  
men	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  organize	&#13;  themselves	&#13;  as	&#13;  well	&#13;  as	&#13;  the	&#13;  women	&#13;  did,	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  thing	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  
not	&#13;  there	&#13;  [for	&#13;  men].	&#13;  For	&#13;  the	&#13;  feeling	&#13;  was	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  baths	&#13;  were	&#13;  things	&#13;  that	&#13;  men	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  
sex	&#13;  as	&#13;  much	&#13;  as	&#13;  they	&#13;  could,	&#13;  and	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  questions	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  get	&#13;  asked	&#13;  when	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  do	&#13;  
panels	&#13;  on	&#13;  “What	&#13;  being	&#13;  gay,	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  was	&#13;  all	&#13;  about,”	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  questions	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  “Why	&#13;  do	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
men	&#13;  have	&#13;  so	&#13;  many	&#13;  sex	&#13;  partners?”	&#13;  because	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  stuff	&#13;  was	&#13;  coming	&#13;  out	&#13;  that	&#13;  men	&#13;  were	&#13;  
having	&#13;  100,	&#13;  200,	&#13;  300	&#13;  partners,	&#13;  different	&#13;  one	&#13;  every	&#13;  day	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  crisis	&#13;  was	&#13;  
spreading	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  multiple	&#13;  partners.	&#13;  So	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  questions	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  get	&#13;  asked	&#13;  

	&#13;  

12	&#13;  

�when	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  do	&#13;  mixed	&#13;  panels	&#13;  was	&#13;  “why	&#13;  do	&#13;  men	&#13;  have	&#13;  so	&#13;  many	&#13;  partners?”	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  response	&#13;  
from	&#13;  the	&#13;  men	&#13;  [on	&#13;  the	&#13;  panel]	&#13;  was	&#13;  well,	&#13;  “our	&#13;  understanding	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  if	&#13;  heterosexual	&#13;  men	&#13;  could	&#13;  
find	&#13;  the	&#13;  partners,	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  as	&#13;  much	&#13;  sex	&#13;  as	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  having.	&#13;  You	&#13;  [heterosexual	&#13;  men	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
audience]	&#13;  just	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  find	&#13;  the	&#13;  women	&#13;  that	&#13;  were	&#13;  willing	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it	&#13;  as	&#13;  often	&#13;  as	&#13;  men	&#13;  are.”	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  
their	&#13;  response.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  idea	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  men	&#13;  were	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  baths	&#13;  not	&#13;  to	&#13;  learn	&#13;  people’s	&#13;  
names.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  if	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  persecuted,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  better	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  not	&#13;  know	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  person’s	&#13;  name,	&#13;  so	&#13;  
they	&#13;  would	&#13;  make	&#13;  up	&#13;  names	&#13;  when	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  baths.	&#13;  They’d	&#13;  choose	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  name.	&#13;  
There	&#13;  was	&#13;  one	&#13;  man	&#13;  actually	&#13;  in	&#13;  our	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  community	&#13;  who	&#13;  went	&#13;  by	&#13;  one	&#13;  name	&#13;  at	&#13;  work,	&#13;  which	&#13;  
was	&#13;  his	&#13;  legal	&#13;  name,	&#13;  and	&#13;  chose	&#13;  another	&#13;  name	&#13;  within	&#13;  the	&#13;  community.	&#13;  A	&#13;  full	&#13;  first	&#13;  name	&#13;  and	&#13;  last	&#13;  
name	&#13;  and	&#13;  would	&#13;  publicize	&#13;  a	&#13;  newsletter	&#13;  under	&#13;  that	&#13;  pen	&#13;  name	&#13;  as	&#13;  it	&#13;  were.	&#13;  When	&#13;  he	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
women	&#13;  and	&#13;  men’s	&#13;  community,	&#13;  as	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  working	&#13;  together,	&#13;  he	&#13;  went	&#13;  by	&#13;  that	&#13;  pen	&#13;  name	&#13;  rather	&#13;  
than	&#13;  his	&#13;  work	&#13;  name,	&#13;  just	&#13;  to	&#13;  protect	&#13;  himself.	&#13;  	&#13;  
When	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  support	&#13;  groups	&#13;  got	&#13;  started,	&#13;  the	&#13;  majority	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  were	&#13;  started	&#13;  by	&#13;  women.	&#13;  The	&#13;  
majority	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  were	&#13;  started	&#13;  by	&#13;  women	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  bisexual,	&#13;  and	&#13;  almost	&#13;  always	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  medical	&#13;  
field.	&#13;  In	&#13;  some	&#13;  manner	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  nurses	&#13;  or	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  doctors	&#13;  that	&#13;  were	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  support	&#13;  the	&#13;  
AIDS	&#13;  community	&#13;  with	&#13;  an	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  network.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  just	&#13;  gay	&#13;  people	&#13;  being	&#13;  affected,	&#13;  gay	&#13;  men	&#13;  
being	&#13;  affected.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  making	&#13;  the	&#13;  larger	&#13;  community,	&#13;  the	&#13;  heterosexual	&#13;  community,	&#13;  
so	&#13;  angry	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  people	&#13;  being	&#13;  affected	&#13;  by	&#13;  blood	&#13;  transfusions,	&#13;  being	&#13;  affect	&#13;  by—for	&#13;  
the	&#13;  women,	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  heterosexual	&#13;  women—by	&#13;  their	&#13;  spouse	&#13;  being	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  man.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  obviously,	&#13;  
not	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  man,	&#13;  but	&#13;  a	&#13;  bisexual	&#13;  man,	&#13;  but	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  viewed	&#13;  that	&#13;  way.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  man	&#13;  who	&#13;  
was	&#13;  gay	&#13;  lying	&#13;  to	&#13;  his	&#13;  wife.	&#13;  He	&#13;  was	&#13;  lying	&#13;  to	&#13;  his	&#13;  wife	&#13;  because	&#13;  his	&#13;  religious	&#13;  community	&#13;  wouldn’t	&#13;  
accept	&#13;  him	&#13;  if	&#13;  he	&#13;  came	&#13;  out.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  vicious	&#13;  circle.	&#13;  	&#13;  
The	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing,	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  community	&#13;  was	&#13;  three	&#13;  women,	&#13;  at	&#13;  least	&#13;  two	&#13;  of	&#13;  
them	&#13;  bisexual,	&#13;  who	&#13;  had	&#13;  started	&#13;  that.	&#13;  It	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  talked	&#13;  about,	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  said,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  only	&#13;  known	&#13;  
inside	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  community.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  public	&#13;  knowledge	&#13;  thing	&#13;  because	&#13;  these	&#13;  women	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  
get	&#13;  general	&#13;  support.	&#13;  They	&#13;  needed	&#13;  money	&#13;  from	&#13;  the	&#13;  general	&#13;  public	&#13;  so	&#13;  they	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  
[that	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  bisexual	&#13;  or	&#13;  lesbian].	&#13;  They	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  these	&#13;  wonderful	&#13;  helping	&#13;  women	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  
doing	&#13;  this	&#13;  good	&#13;  thing	&#13;  for	&#13;  these	&#13;  poor	&#13;  men.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  how	&#13;  the	&#13;  general	&#13;  public	&#13;  looked	&#13;  at	&#13;  them	&#13;  and	&#13;  
they	&#13;  [the	&#13;  women]	&#13;  were	&#13;  just	&#13;  fine	&#13;  with	&#13;  that	&#13;  as	&#13;  long	&#13;  as	&#13;  the	&#13;  general	&#13;  public	&#13;  was	&#13;  giving	&#13;  money	&#13;  to	&#13;  
help	&#13;  support	&#13;  the	&#13;  medical	&#13;  needs.	&#13;  So	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  back	&#13;  to,	&#13;  did	&#13;  any	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  feel	&#13;  threatened	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  time?	&#13;  
Yes.	&#13;  And	&#13;  the	&#13;  women	&#13;  chose	&#13;  to	&#13;  support	&#13;  the	&#13;  men.	&#13;  Rather	&#13;  than	&#13;  just	&#13;  being	&#13;  silent,	&#13;  lesbians	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  
in	&#13;  support	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  male	&#13;  community	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  knew	&#13;  if	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  put	&#13;  gay	&#13;  men	&#13;  in	&#13;  
a	&#13;  camp	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  might	&#13;  have	&#13;  AIDS,	&#13;  it	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  take	&#13;  long	&#13;  before	&#13;  they	&#13;  start	&#13;  coming	&#13;  
after	&#13;  the	&#13;  lesbians.	&#13;  So	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  times	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  separatists	&#13;  working	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  panel	&#13;  with	&#13;  
gay	&#13;  men.	&#13;  	&#13;  
You	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  understand	&#13;  before	&#13;  all	&#13;  this	&#13;  happened,	&#13;  gay	&#13;  men	&#13;  were	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  worst	&#13;  misogynists	&#13;  in	&#13;  
the	&#13;  group.	&#13;  They	&#13;  hated	&#13;  women,	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  them,	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  active	&#13;  in	&#13;  making	&#13;  sure	&#13;  that	&#13;  women	&#13;  
didn’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  political	&#13;  power.	&#13;  These	&#13;  were	&#13;  men	&#13;  that	&#13;  were	&#13;  hiding	&#13;  as	&#13;  senators	&#13;  and	&#13;  as	&#13;  Congress	&#13;  
representatives,	&#13;  very	&#13;  vocal	&#13;  against	&#13;  homosexuality	&#13;  and	&#13;  very	&#13;  vocal	&#13;  against	&#13;  women.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  
strongest	&#13;  misogynist,	&#13;  fem-­‐phobic	&#13;  [people]	&#13;  were	&#13;  gay	&#13;  men	&#13;  masquerading	&#13;  as	&#13;  straight	&#13;  men	&#13;  in	&#13;  
political	&#13;  power.	&#13;  So	&#13;  here	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  lesbians	&#13;  seeing	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  order	&#13;  to	&#13;  protect	&#13;  themselves,	&#13;  
they’re	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  talk	&#13;  with	&#13;  these	&#13;  men	&#13;  who,	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  whom,	&#13;  hate	&#13;  women,	&#13;  but	&#13;  because	&#13;  
	&#13;  

13	&#13;  

�the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  crisis	&#13;  is	&#13;  causing	&#13;  them	&#13;  to	&#13;  need	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  to	&#13;  support	&#13;  them—it	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  very,	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  
heroic,	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  moral	&#13;  bond.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  morality	&#13;  there	&#13;  that	&#13;  was,	&#13;  to	&#13;  me,	&#13;  just	&#13;  amazing.	&#13;  And	&#13;  as	&#13;  this	&#13;  
continued,	&#13;  the	&#13;  men	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  see	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  began	&#13;  to,	&#13;  I	&#13;  mean,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  picture	&#13;  of	&#13;  a	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  march	&#13;  
and	&#13;  here’s	&#13;  this	&#13;  gay	&#13;  man	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  lawn	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  huge	&#13;  poster	&#13;  sign	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  stick	&#13;  that	&#13;  said	&#13;  
“Thank	&#13;  you	&#13;  lesbians.”	&#13;  It	&#13;  just	&#13;  was	&#13;  something	&#13;  that	&#13;  up	&#13;  until	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  crisis	&#13;  just	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  happening.	&#13;  
New	&#13;  York	&#13;  had	&#13;  its	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  march	&#13;  and	&#13;  had	&#13;  had	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  over	&#13;  ten	&#13;  years	&#13;  but	&#13;  the	&#13;  rest	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  nation	&#13;  wasn’t	&#13;  
responding	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  way.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  if	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  women	&#13;  they	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  getting	&#13;  together	&#13;  with	&#13;  men.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  49:11	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  Were	&#13;  there	&#13;  solely	&#13;  female	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  marches	&#13;  or	&#13;  solely	&#13;  male	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  marches?	&#13;  	&#13;  
49:16	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  marches—in	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  City,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  strong	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  group,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
you	&#13;  know,	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  pride	&#13;  march.	&#13;  Any	&#13;  place	&#13;  else,	&#13;  the	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  marches	&#13;  
that	&#13;  might	&#13;  have	&#13;  occurred,	&#13;  occurred	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  with	&#13;  men.	&#13;  But	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  interesting	&#13;  because,	&#13;  well,	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  
been	&#13;  said	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  ones	&#13;  who	&#13;  has	&#13;  the	&#13;  least	&#13;  to	&#13;  lose	&#13;  are	&#13;  the	&#13;  ones	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  active,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
when	&#13;  you	&#13;  look	&#13;  at	&#13;  the	&#13;  power	&#13;  structure	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  economic	&#13;  structure	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community,	&#13;  there	&#13;  
is	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  gap	&#13;  there.	&#13;  In	&#13;  the	&#13;  weirdest	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  ways,	&#13;  if	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  two	&#13;  men	&#13;  who	&#13;  are	&#13;  white	&#13;  and	&#13;  have	&#13;  high	&#13;  
power	&#13;  jobs—engineers,	&#13;  architects,	&#13;  doctors—the	&#13;  wage	&#13;  income	&#13;  and	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  lose	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  
came	&#13;  out	&#13;  is	&#13;  very	&#13;  high.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  high	&#13;  wage	&#13;  earning	&#13;  power	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  high	&#13;  risk	&#13;  of	&#13;  
losing	&#13;  everything	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  came	&#13;  out.	&#13;  And	&#13;  then,	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  other	&#13;  extreme,	&#13;  was	&#13;  our	&#13;  women	&#13;  lesbians,	&#13;  
who	&#13;  have	&#13;  very	&#13;  low	&#13;  income	&#13;  and	&#13;  very	&#13;  little	&#13;  political	&#13;  power,	&#13;  who	&#13;  have	&#13;  very	&#13;  little	&#13;  to	&#13;  lose	&#13;  by	&#13;  coming	&#13;  
out,	&#13;  unless	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  talking	&#13;  about	&#13;  their	&#13;  children.	&#13;  If	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  children,	&#13;  then	&#13;  they	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  
lot	&#13;  to	&#13;  lose.	&#13;  And,	&#13;  in	&#13;  between	&#13;  that	&#13;  were	&#13;  the	&#13;  swish	&#13;  queens,	&#13;  the	&#13;  homosexual	&#13;  males	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  
people	&#13;  of	&#13;  color,	&#13;  and	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  very	&#13;  effeminate,	&#13;  who,	&#13;  even	&#13;  when	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  working,	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  hard	&#13;  
time	&#13;  not	&#13;  swaying	&#13;  their	&#13;  hips,	&#13;  or	&#13;  having	&#13;  limp	&#13;  wrists,	&#13;  or	&#13;  having	&#13;  lilting	&#13;  voices.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  those	&#13;  couples	&#13;  had	&#13;  
low	&#13;  earning	&#13;  power,	&#13;  usually	&#13;  ended	&#13;  up	&#13;  being	&#13;  what	&#13;  is	&#13;  called	&#13;  direct	&#13;  staff,	&#13;  in	&#13;  terms	&#13;  of	&#13;  working	&#13;  in	&#13;  
nursing	&#13;  homes	&#13;  or...	&#13;  Actually	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  mostly	&#13;  nursing	&#13;  homes.	&#13;  I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  [of	&#13;  any	&#13;  other	&#13;  jobs]	&#13;  
because	&#13;  even	&#13;  the	&#13;  hairdressers	&#13;  had	&#13;  more	&#13;  power	&#13;  than	&#13;  the	&#13;  ones	&#13;  working	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  nursing	&#13;  homes,	&#13;  or	&#13;  
the	&#13;  interior	&#13;  design	&#13;  companies.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  when	&#13;  Stonewall	&#13;  happened	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  those	&#13;  people	&#13;  of	&#13;  color,	&#13;  men	&#13;  
of	&#13;  color	&#13;  in	&#13;  those	&#13;  kinds	&#13;  of	&#13;  jobs,	&#13;  of	&#13;  being	&#13;  low	&#13;  wage	&#13;  earners,	&#13;  very	&#13;  swish,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  women	&#13;  who	&#13;  were	&#13;  
dressed	&#13;  in	&#13;  male	&#13;  attire	&#13;  with	&#13;  their	&#13;  female	&#13;  partner,	&#13;  who	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  least	&#13;  to	&#13;  lose	&#13;  and	&#13;  were	&#13;  the	&#13;  most	&#13;  
likely	&#13;  to	&#13;  rebel.	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  how	&#13;  we	&#13;  got	&#13;  off	&#13;  on	&#13;  that...	&#13;  	&#13;  
53:12	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  That	&#13;  is	&#13;  alright.	&#13;  
53:15	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  	&#13;  Oh	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  asking	&#13;  about	&#13;  pride	&#13;  marches,	&#13;  so	&#13;  in	&#13;  some	&#13;  situations…	&#13;  There	&#13;  were	&#13;  never	&#13;  any	&#13;  
just-­‐female	&#13;  pride	&#13;  marches.	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  history	&#13;  parts	&#13;  that	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  work	&#13;  
on	&#13;  a	&#13;  doctoral	&#13;  thesis	&#13;  might	&#13;  do	&#13;  research	&#13;  on.	&#13;  Anyway…	&#13;  	&#13;  
53:43	&#13;  

	&#13;  

14	&#13;  

�TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  moving	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  and	&#13;  before	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  much	&#13;  more	&#13;  active	&#13;  
community	&#13;  up	&#13;  there.	&#13;  For	&#13;  events	&#13;  like	&#13;  Stonewall,	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  see	&#13;  any	&#13;  changes	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  community,	&#13;  an	&#13;  
influx	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  coming	&#13;  through?	&#13;  	&#13;  
53:56	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  Stonewall	&#13;  happened	&#13;  in	&#13;  ‘69.	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  until	&#13;  ‘83.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  very	&#13;  active,	&#13;  once	&#13;  
the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  thing	&#13;  started,	&#13;  I	&#13;  became	&#13;  active	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  network.	&#13;  And	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  point,	&#13;  some	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  men	&#13;  
were	&#13;  taking	&#13;  the	&#13;  risks	&#13;  of	&#13;  coming	&#13;  out.	&#13;  There	&#13;  was	&#13;  no	&#13;  pride	&#13;  march	&#13;  until	&#13;  after	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  crisis	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  
be	&#13;  bad	&#13;  enough	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  men’s	&#13;  community	&#13;  came	&#13;  together.	&#13;  So	&#13;  this	&#13;  
is	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing,	&#13;  a	&#13;  town	&#13;  that	&#13;  had	&#13;  300,000	&#13;  people	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  and	&#13;  was	&#13;  right	&#13;  next	&#13;  to	&#13;  East	&#13;  Lansing,	&#13;  
which	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  home	&#13;  of	&#13;  Michigan	&#13;  State	&#13;  University.	&#13;  Michigan	&#13;  State	&#13;  being	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  late	&#13;  ‘60s-­‐	&#13;  early	&#13;  
‘70s	&#13;  war	&#13;  resistant	&#13;  colleges,	&#13;  universities.	&#13;  In	&#13;  ‘74,	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  written	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  ordinance	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  sense	&#13;  
that	&#13;  they	&#13;  offered	&#13;  legal	&#13;  protection	&#13;  to	&#13;  gays	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  East	&#13;  Lansing.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  East	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  had	&#13;  a	&#13;  very	&#13;  
active	&#13;  women	&#13;  community,	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  university,	&#13;  which	&#13;  spilled	&#13;  over	&#13;  into	&#13;  Lansing.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  
think	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  anything	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  men’s	&#13;  community	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  
until	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  crisis	&#13;  had	&#13;  brought	&#13;  the	&#13;  two	&#13;  communities	&#13;  together	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  mid-­‐eighties.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  
was	&#13;  not,	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  know,	&#13;  a	&#13;  pride	&#13;  march	&#13;  until	&#13;  after	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing.	&#13;  We	&#13;  are	&#13;  talking	&#13;  the	&#13;  Midwest	&#13;  
area,	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  east	&#13;  coast	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  northern	&#13;  sections,	&#13;  the	&#13;  northern	&#13;  states,	&#13;  and	&#13;  
what	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  west	&#13;  coast	&#13;  in	&#13;  terms	&#13;  of	&#13;  California	&#13;  and	&#13;  Oregon,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know.	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  
thinking	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  had	&#13;  pride	&#13;  marches	&#13;  by	&#13;  that	&#13;  time,	&#13;  because	&#13;  Harvey	&#13;  Milk	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  in	&#13;  San	&#13;  
Francisco	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  his	&#13;  murder	&#13;  happened	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  late	&#13;  ‘70s.	&#13;  That	&#13;  was	&#13;  again	&#13;  a	&#13;  community	&#13;  of	&#13;  
women	&#13;  and	&#13;  men	&#13;  coming	&#13;  together	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  elect	&#13;  this	&#13;  man.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
56:52	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  were	&#13;  active	&#13;  during	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  era,	&#13;  were	&#13;  you	&#13;  in	&#13;  any	&#13;  vocal	&#13;  groups	&#13;  
that	&#13;  came	&#13;  out?	&#13;  	&#13;  
57:03	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  network	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  do	&#13;  panels	&#13;  for	&#13;  high	&#13;  schools,	&#13;  religious	&#13;  groups	&#13;  if	&#13;  they	&#13;  
wanted	&#13;  it,	&#13;  any	&#13;  social	&#13;  group	&#13;  that	&#13;  has	&#13;  any	&#13;  community	&#13;  group,	&#13;  civic	&#13;  group	&#13;  that	&#13;  asked	&#13;  us,	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  
go	&#13;  and	&#13;  talk.	&#13;  In	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  time,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  the	&#13;  human	&#13;  rights—Michigan	&#13;  Organization	&#13;  for	&#13;  Human	&#13;  
Rights—that	&#13;  same	&#13;  group,	&#13;  the	&#13;  network,	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  network	&#13;  group	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  Michigan	&#13;  Organization	&#13;  
group	&#13;  had	&#13;  their	&#13;  housing—I	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  of	&#13;  offices,	&#13;  what	&#13;  little	&#13;  offices	&#13;  we	&#13;  had—in	&#13;  Lansing.	&#13;  And	&#13;  as	&#13;  
the	&#13;  human	&#13;  rights	&#13;  organization	&#13;  tried	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  an	&#13;  ordinance	&#13;  passed	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing,	&#13;  the	&#13;  capital	&#13;  of	&#13;  
Michigan,	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  go	&#13;  out	&#13;  as	&#13;  speakers,	&#13;  as	&#13;  mixed	&#13;  panels,	&#13;  and	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  high	&#13;  schools,	&#13;  so	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
group	&#13;  doing	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  AIDS	&#13;  support	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  doing	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  human	&#13;  rights	&#13;  
organization,	&#13;  equality	&#13;  and	&#13;  support.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
58:33	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  had	&#13;  this	&#13;  very	&#13;  interconnected	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  felt	&#13;  safe	&#13;  in	&#13;  this	&#13;  community	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing?	&#13;

58:42	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  could	&#13;  I	&#13;  ask	&#13;  why	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  move	&#13;  over	&#13;  to	&#13;  Virginia?	&#13;  	&#13;  
58:47	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  So	&#13;  for	&#13;  eleven	&#13;  years,	&#13;  my	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  group	&#13;  and	&#13;  most	&#13;  everybody	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew,	&#13;  assumed	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
lesbian.	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  necessarily	&#13;  [a	&#13;  lesbian].	&#13;  Going	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  conference,	&#13;  I	&#13;  met	&#13;  this	&#13;  fella	&#13;  
and	&#13;  he	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  City	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  not	&#13;  been	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  relationship	&#13;  for	&#13;  eleven	&#13;  years,	&#13;  so	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  talking	&#13;  to	&#13;  my	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  friends	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing,	&#13;  [I’d	&#13;  say]	&#13;  “I	&#13;  met	&#13;  somebody,”	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  how	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  lead	&#13;  
off,	&#13;  “I	&#13;  met	&#13;  somebody,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  go	&#13;  “Oh,	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  she?”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  say	&#13;  “well,	&#13;  she	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  he”	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  we	&#13;  
talked	&#13;  about	&#13;  that.	&#13;  And	&#13;  I	&#13;  basically	&#13;  followed	&#13;  him	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  City,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  not	&#13;  handle	&#13;  New	&#13;  
York	&#13;  City,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  ended	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  Jersey	&#13;  for	&#13;  two	&#13;  years	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  we	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  broke	&#13;  up,	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  
between	&#13;  all	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  my	&#13;  mother	&#13;  died,	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  the	&#13;  agreement	&#13;  with	&#13;  my	&#13;  younger	&#13;  brother	&#13;  who	&#13;  is	&#13;  still	&#13;  
in	&#13;  the	&#13;  state	&#13;  [Michigan]	&#13;  was	&#13;  my	&#13;  younger	&#13;  brother	&#13;  would	&#13;  take	&#13;  care	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  dad	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  take	&#13;  
care	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  mom,	&#13;  so	&#13;  mom	&#13;  died,	&#13;  dad	&#13;  was	&#13;  still	&#13;  alive,	&#13;  and	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  this	&#13;  agreement	&#13;  plus	&#13;  my	&#13;  then-­‐
boyfriend	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  York,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  moved	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  New	&#13;  Jersey,	&#13;  spent	&#13;  two	&#13;  years	&#13;  out	&#13;  there	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  
make	&#13;  a	&#13;  go	&#13;  of	&#13;  it,	&#13;  that	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  work.	&#13;  Here	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  east	&#13;  coast	&#13;  not	&#13;  wanting	&#13;  to	&#13;  move	&#13;  back	&#13;  to	&#13;  
Lansing	&#13;  because	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  cold.	&#13;  Michigan	&#13;  winters	&#13;  are	&#13;  just	&#13;  plain	&#13;  cold,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  figure	&#13;  out	&#13;  do	&#13;  I	&#13;  
want	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  southwest,	&#13;  because	&#13;  originally	&#13;  I	&#13;  thought	&#13;  about	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  Arizona	&#13;  or	&#13;  New	&#13;  
Mexico,	&#13;  just	&#13;  simply	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  change	&#13;  in	&#13;  scenery.	&#13;  Michigan	&#13;  is	&#13;  green;	&#13;  Arizona	&#13;  and	&#13;  New	&#13;  Mexico	&#13;  are	&#13;  
brown.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  wondering	&#13;  what	&#13;  a	&#13;  desert	&#13;  environment	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  like,	&#13;  to	&#13;  live	&#13;  there,	&#13;  but	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  five	&#13;  
days	&#13;  travel	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  have	&#13;  the	&#13;  money	&#13;  to	&#13;  get	&#13;  a	&#13;  mover	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  looking	&#13;  to	&#13;  what	&#13;  
was	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  east	&#13;  coast	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  I	&#13;  was—what	&#13;  state	&#13;  would	&#13;  I	&#13;  be	&#13;  proud	&#13;  to	&#13;  say	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  
from—and	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  Virginia.	&#13;  I	&#13;  had	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  Jersey	&#13;  
for	&#13;  two	&#13;  years,	&#13;  the	&#13;  cost	&#13;  of	&#13;  living	&#13;  in	&#13;  New	&#13;  Jersey	&#13;  was	&#13;  incredibly	&#13;  high,	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  running	&#13;  in	&#13;  
place.	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  know	&#13;  how	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  could	&#13;  manage	&#13;  it	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  repeat	&#13;  that,	&#13;  so	&#13;  when	&#13;  I	&#13;  
talked	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  friend	&#13;  who	&#13;  had	&#13;  lived	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia,	&#13;  I	&#13;  said	&#13;  “what	&#13;  area	&#13;  in	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  can	&#13;  I	&#13;  live	&#13;  in	&#13;  and	&#13;  not	&#13;  be	&#13;  
doing	&#13;  a	&#13;  New	&#13;  Jersey	&#13;  cost	&#13;  of	&#13;  living?”	&#13;  and	&#13;  she	&#13;  said	&#13;  “anything	&#13;  south	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Richmond	&#13;  Corridor,”	&#13;  so	&#13;  
here	&#13;  is	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  and	&#13;  here	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  meeting.	&#13;  I	&#13;  decided	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  to	&#13;  Quaker	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  here.	&#13;  So	&#13;  
that’s	&#13;  how	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  southwest	&#13;  area.	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  house	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  had	&#13;  it	&#13;  for	&#13;  five	&#13;  
years	&#13;  then	&#13;  decided	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  too	&#13;  big	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  and	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  back	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  woods,	&#13;  so	&#13;  I	&#13;  
moved	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:02:15	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  did	&#13;  you	&#13;  find	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  an	&#13;  access	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  community	&#13;  there?	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:02:20	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  find	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  know	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  must	&#13;  be	&#13;  one	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  sense	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  two	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bars—
there	&#13;  are	&#13;  no	&#13;  longer	&#13;  two	&#13;  gay	&#13;  bars.	&#13;  And	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Metropolitan	&#13;  Community	&#13;  Church	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  
a	&#13;  church	&#13;  based	&#13;  on…	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  Christian	&#13;  Church	&#13;  open	&#13;  to	&#13;  homosexuals,	&#13;  was	&#13;  started	&#13;  by	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  man	&#13;  out	&#13;  
in	&#13;  California,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  remember	&#13;  which	&#13;  one,	&#13;  might	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  Los	&#13;  Angeles.	&#13;  So	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
women’s	&#13;  community	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  sense	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  were	&#13;  women	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  that	&#13;  church	&#13;  [Metropolitan	&#13;  

	&#13;  

16	&#13;  

�Community	&#13;  Church	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  Blue	&#13;  Ridge]	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  active	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  pride	&#13;  march	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke,	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  not	&#13;  finding	&#13;  an	&#13;  individual	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community,	&#13;  nothing	&#13;  like	&#13;  what	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  had.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:03:28	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  you	&#13;  mentioned	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  two	&#13;  bars	&#13;  that	&#13;  are	&#13;  no	&#13;  longer	&#13;  around,	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  remember	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  
were?	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:03:33	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  One	&#13;  of	&#13;  them	&#13;  is	&#13;  gone,	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  has	&#13;  closed,	&#13;  they	&#13;  decided	&#13;  to	&#13;  shut	&#13;  it	&#13;  down.	&#13;  It	&#13;  opens	&#13;  up,	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  
understand,	&#13;  during	&#13;  the	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  March	&#13;  events,	&#13;  Diversity	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  or	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  Diversity,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  
Diversity	&#13;  Roanoke…	&#13;  puts	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  Event	&#13;  and	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  opens	&#13;  up	&#13;  for	&#13;  those	&#13;  events	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  
know.3	&#13;  But	&#13;  for	&#13;  some	&#13;  reason	&#13;  two	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago	&#13;  or	&#13;  three	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago—2012,	&#13;  2011—something	&#13;  like	&#13;  
that,	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  just	&#13;  shut	&#13;  down,	&#13;  they	&#13;  said	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  worth	&#13;  their	&#13;  time.	&#13;  The	&#13;  Backstreet	&#13;  Cafe,	&#13;  I	&#13;  guess	&#13;  
it	&#13;  has	&#13;  been	&#13;  around	&#13;  for	&#13;  quite	&#13;  a	&#13;  while.	&#13;  And	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  does	&#13;  its	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  March	&#13;  in	&#13;  September	&#13;  because	&#13;  
about	&#13;  ten	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago	&#13;  or	&#13;  fifteen	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago—I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it	&#13;  occurred	&#13;  before	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  in	&#13;  2003,	&#13;  
so	&#13;  at	&#13;  least	&#13;  fifteen	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago—a	&#13;  man	&#13;  whose	&#13;  last	&#13;  name	&#13;  was	&#13;  Gay	&#13;  and	&#13;  who	&#13;  resented	&#13;  the	&#13;  fact	&#13;  that	&#13;  
that	&#13;  name	&#13;  meant	&#13;  something	&#13;  now	&#13;  about	&#13;  who	&#13;  he	&#13;  was,	&#13;  walked	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  Backstreet	&#13;  Café	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  
gun	&#13;  and	&#13;  shot	&#13;  two	&#13;  people,	&#13;  killed	&#13;  a	&#13;  man	&#13;  and	&#13;  wounded	&#13;  a	&#13;  woman,4	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  March	&#13;  that	&#13;  
occurs	&#13;  in	&#13;  September	&#13;  does	&#13;  that,	&#13;  rather	&#13;  than	&#13;  June,	&#13;  in	&#13;  memory	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  shooting.	&#13;  But,	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  I	&#13;  
know,	&#13;  Backstreet	&#13;  is	&#13;  still	&#13;  open.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:05:40	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  I	&#13;  believe	&#13;  that	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park	&#13;  has	&#13;  come	&#13;  under	&#13;  a	&#13;  new	&#13;  management	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  believe	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  still	&#13;  
operating.	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:05:45	&#13;

1:05:46	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  Yes.	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  not	&#13;  sure	&#13;  though,	&#13;  this	&#13;  will	&#13;  be	&#13;  something	&#13;  we	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  check.	&#13;  	&#13;

Avenue	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke.	&#13;  He	&#13;  killed	&#13;  one	&#13;  person	&#13;  and	&#13;  wounded	&#13;  six	&#13;  others.	&#13;  	&#13;

EW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  Area	&#13;  yet.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:06:18	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  Okay	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:06:19	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  it	&#13;  occurred	&#13;  before	&#13;  2003.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:06:23	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  Did	&#13;  you	&#13;  feel	&#13;  worried	&#13;  hearing	&#13;  about	&#13;  it?	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:06:26	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  No,	&#13;  because,	&#13;  again,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  strong	&#13;  community	&#13;  there	&#13;  even	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  first	&#13;  
got	&#13;  involved	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  March,	&#13;  which	&#13;  I	&#13;  think,	&#13;  was	&#13;  2004,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  meeting	&#13;  at	&#13;  Highland	&#13;  Park	&#13;  
over	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  little	&#13;  corner	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  park	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  might	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  a	&#13;  hundred	&#13;  and	&#13;  fifty	&#13;  people	&#13;  sitting	&#13;  
and	&#13;  listening	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  band	&#13;  play	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  singing	&#13;  going	&#13;  on,	&#13;  and	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  some	&#13;  female	&#13;  
impersonation	&#13;  going	&#13;  on.	&#13;  They	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  move	&#13;  to	&#13;  Elmwood	&#13;  Park	&#13;  until	&#13;  2005	&#13;  and	&#13;  even	&#13;  then,	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
done	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  Sunday.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  on	&#13;  a	&#13;  Sunday,	&#13;  the	&#13;  downtown	&#13;  is	&#13;  basically—nobody	&#13;  is	&#13;  there	&#13;  and	&#13;  
everybody	&#13;  is	&#13;  at	&#13;  church—so	&#13;  they	&#13;  [the	&#13;  heterosexual	&#13;  public]	&#13;  are	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  come	&#13;  and	&#13;  
demonstrate	&#13;  against	&#13;  any	&#13;  parading	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  going	&#13;  on.	&#13;  So	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  two	&#13;  years,	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Elmwood	&#13;  Park,	&#13;  before	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  start	&#13;  the	&#13;  events	&#13;  in	&#13;  Elmwood,	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  parade	&#13;  [around]	&#13;  the	&#13;  
block	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  did	&#13;  it	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  sidewalk,	&#13;  the	&#13;  street	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  closed	&#13;  down	&#13;  and	&#13;  half	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  people	&#13;  
that	&#13;  were	&#13;  there	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  participate	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  parade	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  want	&#13;  to	&#13;  take	&#13;  the	&#13;  risk	&#13;  of	&#13;  
somebody	&#13;  driving	&#13;  by	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  gun.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  has	&#13;  been	&#13;  some	&#13;  major	&#13;  changes,	&#13;  both	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  size	&#13;  of	&#13;  it,	&#13;  I	&#13;  
believe	&#13;  it	&#13;  happens	&#13;  two	&#13;  days	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  row	&#13;  now	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  fact	&#13;  that	&#13;  they	&#13;  shut	&#13;  down	&#13;  the	&#13;  streets	&#13;  to	&#13;  have	&#13;  
the	&#13;  parade.5	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:08:20	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  Have	&#13;  you	&#13;  found	&#13;  that	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  different	&#13;  look	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  here	&#13;  different	&#13;  to	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  or	&#13;  
to	&#13;  Michigan?	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

EW:	&#13;  Definitely.	&#13;  Definitely.	&#13;  	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  like,	&#13;  how	&#13;  I	&#13;  can	&#13;  say	&#13;  this?	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  like	&#13;  when	&#13;  integration	&#13;  
really	&#13;  started	&#13;  to	&#13;  take	&#13;  effect	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  black	&#13;  community,	&#13;  the	&#13;  black	&#13;  community	&#13;  just	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  
disappeared,	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  sense	&#13;  the	&#13;  business	&#13;  people	&#13;  went	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  business,	&#13;  the	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  we	&#13;  will	&#13;  take	&#13;  
care	&#13;  of	&#13;  our	&#13;  own	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  disappeared	&#13;  and	&#13;  got	&#13;  absorbed	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  larger	&#13;  [community],	&#13;  so	&#13;  now	&#13;  you	&#13;  
can	&#13;  integrate	&#13;  with	&#13;  white	&#13;  folks,	&#13;  but	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  disappear	&#13;  into	&#13;  them,	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  the	&#13;  
majority.	&#13;  And	&#13;  as	&#13;  the	&#13;  northern	&#13;  states	&#13;  began	&#13;  [to	&#13;  move]	&#13;  towards	&#13;  more	&#13;  acceptance	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
community,	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  began	&#13;  to	&#13;  disappear	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  general	&#13;  community	&#13;  and	&#13;  wearing	&#13;  
the	&#13;  rainbow	&#13;  colors	&#13;  became	&#13;  blasé.	&#13;  You	&#13;  just	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  see	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  identification	&#13;  of	&#13;  being	&#13;  proudly	&#13;  
out	&#13;  up	&#13;  north	&#13;  as	&#13;  much.	&#13;  Of	&#13;  course	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  always	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  City,	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  always	&#13;  San	&#13;  Francisco,	&#13;  
but	&#13;  coming	&#13;  down	&#13;  here	&#13;  and,	&#13;  again,	&#13;  seeing	&#13;  the	&#13;  smallness	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  parade	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  cautiousness	&#13;  of	&#13;  
the	&#13;  parade	&#13;  and	&#13;  now	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  more	&#13;  open	&#13;  and	&#13;  people	&#13;  feel	&#13;  somewhat	&#13;  safer,	&#13;  [although]	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  
still	&#13;  that	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  backlash	&#13;  could	&#13;  happen	&#13;  at	&#13;  any	&#13;  time.	&#13;  There	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  more	&#13;  rainbow	&#13;  color	&#13;  wearing	&#13;  
and	&#13;  deliberately	&#13;  identifying	&#13;  outlandish	&#13;  outfits.	&#13;  What	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  going	&#13;  on	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing,	&#13;  that	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  
see	&#13;  it,	&#13;  it	&#13;  probably	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  see	&#13;  it,	&#13;  [because]	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  real	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  being	&#13;  
politically	&#13;  correct	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing.	&#13;  So,	&#13;  you	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  see	&#13;  female	&#13;  impersonators	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  parade,	&#13;  you	&#13;  did	&#13;  
not	&#13;  see	&#13;  female	&#13;  impersonators	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  entertainment,	&#13;  you	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  see	&#13;  women	&#13;  dressed	&#13;  as	&#13;  men,	&#13;  
male	&#13;  impersonators,	&#13;  and	&#13;  you	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  see	&#13;  what	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  called	&#13;  foo-­‐foo	&#13;  fem.	&#13;  Lesbians	&#13;  wearing	&#13;  
fancy	&#13;  dresses	&#13;  and	&#13;  high	&#13;  heels	&#13;  and	&#13;  lipsticks.	&#13;  It	&#13;  just	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  happen.	&#13;  Make	&#13;  up	&#13;  was	&#13;  just	&#13;  not	&#13;  worn	&#13;  by	&#13;  
the	&#13;  women.	&#13;  The	&#13;  men	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  wear	&#13;  it	&#13;  [in	&#13;  Lansing],	&#13;  whereas	&#13;  down	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  area,	&#13;  
female	&#13;  impersonators	&#13;  are	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  parade.	&#13;  They	&#13;  are	&#13;  definitely	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  program,	&#13;  male	&#13;  
impersonators	&#13;  are	&#13;  definitely	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  program.	&#13;  In	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  just,	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  see	&#13;  my	&#13;  
first	&#13;  male	&#13;  impersonator	&#13;  until	&#13;  I	&#13;  came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  and	&#13;  saw	&#13;  it	&#13;  at	&#13;  The	&#13;  Park.	&#13;  I	&#13;  was	&#13;  stunned.	&#13;  I	&#13;  could	&#13;  
not	&#13;  believe	&#13;  what	&#13;  was	&#13;  happening.	&#13;  It	&#13;  was	&#13;  like	&#13;  “seriously,	&#13;  we	&#13;  are	&#13;  doing	&#13;  this?”	&#13;  And	&#13;  at	&#13;  that	&#13;  time	&#13;  I	&#13;  
would	&#13;  have	&#13;  said	&#13;  “nonsense,”	&#13;  if	&#13;  it	&#13;  had	&#13;  happened	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing,	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  been	&#13;  called	&#13;  “bullshit.”	&#13;  
But,	&#13;  yes,	&#13;  so	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  difference	&#13;  of	&#13;  what	&#13;  is	&#13;  politically	&#13;  correct	&#13;  up	&#13;  north	&#13;  versus,	&#13;  in	&#13;  my	&#13;  sense,	&#13;  
versus	&#13;  of	&#13;  what	&#13;  is	&#13;  down	&#13;  here	&#13;  which	&#13;  is	&#13;  more	&#13;  heartfelt,	&#13;  more	&#13;  personal,	&#13;  more	&#13;  raw,	&#13;  very	&#13;  much	&#13;  
identifying	&#13;  with	&#13;  “I	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  this,	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  essential	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  not	&#13;  allowed	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it	&#13;  anyplace	&#13;  
else.”	&#13;  The	&#13;  gay	&#13;  community	&#13;  here	&#13;  has	&#13;  not	&#13;  integrated	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  larger	&#13;  community	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  
identifying	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  rainbow	&#13;  colors	&#13;  comes	&#13;  out	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  parades	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  more	&#13;  because	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  where	&#13;  
you	&#13;  are	&#13;  allowed	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it.	&#13;  I	&#13;  do	&#13;  not	&#13;  notice	&#13;  a	&#13;  whole	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  holding	&#13;  hands	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  events	&#13;  and	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  
parade,	&#13;  just	&#13;  isn’t	&#13;  done,	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  still	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  flaunting	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Whereas	&#13;  if	&#13;  you	&#13;  go	&#13;  up	&#13;  north,	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  
probably	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  of	&#13;  smooching	&#13;  going	&#13;  on,	&#13;  holding	&#13;  hands,	&#13;  kissing,	&#13;  and	&#13;  hugging.	&#13;  That’s	&#13;  just	&#13;  doesn’t	&#13;  
show	&#13;  up	&#13;  here,	&#13;  again	&#13;  that	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  know	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  larger	&#13;  community	&#13;  is	&#13;  going	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  if	&#13;  
you	&#13;  flaunt	&#13;  the	&#13;  fact	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  actually	&#13;  kiss	&#13;  your	&#13;  lover	&#13;  or	&#13;  your	&#13;  partner.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:13:31	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  So	&#13;  when	&#13;  you	&#13;  moved	&#13;  down	&#13;  to	&#13;  Floyd,	&#13;  was	&#13;  there	&#13;  any	&#13;  distinct	&#13;  difference	&#13;  between	&#13;  Roanoke?	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:13:40	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  Not	&#13;  in	&#13;  that	&#13;  sense,	&#13;  because	&#13;  I	&#13;  did	&#13;  not	&#13;  make	&#13;  a	&#13;  connection	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  
was	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  a	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  soccer	&#13;  league	&#13;  started,	&#13;  and	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  ways	&#13;  I	&#13;  got	&#13;  it	&#13;  started	&#13;  was	&#13;  
appealing	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  community.	&#13;  I	&#13;  put	&#13;  an	&#13;  ad[vertisement]	&#13;  in	&#13;  The	&#13;  Lesbian	&#13;  Connection	&#13;  which	&#13;  
	&#13;  

19	&#13;  

�is	&#13;  an	&#13;  international	&#13;  newsletter.	&#13;  I	&#13;  put	&#13;  an	&#13;  advertisement	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  Lesbian	&#13;  Alliance	&#13;  which	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  
separate	&#13;  group	&#13;  [local,	&#13;  not	&#13;  national].	&#13;  This	&#13;  town	&#13;  [Lansing]	&#13;  was	&#13;  big	&#13;  enough,	&#13;  this	&#13;  capital	&#13;  city	&#13;  town	&#13;  
was	&#13;  big	&#13;  enough,	&#13;  to	&#13;  handle	&#13;  two	&#13;  separate	&#13;  groups	&#13;  of	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community,	&#13;  and	&#13;  they	&#13;  were	&#13;  the	&#13;  
ones	&#13;  that	&#13;  came	&#13;  out	&#13;  and	&#13;  formed	&#13;  the	&#13;  core	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  soccer	&#13;  league,	&#13;  and	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  first	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  say	&#13;  
eight-­‐nine	&#13;  years,	&#13;  ninety	&#13;  percent	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  board	&#13;  was	&#13;  lesbian	&#13;  but	&#13;  you	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  out	&#13;  [didn’t	&#13;  say	&#13;  you	&#13;  
were	&#13;  lesbian]	&#13;  for	&#13;  it.	&#13;  Because	&#13;  what	&#13;  we	&#13;  were	&#13;  trying	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  was	&#13;  attract	&#13;  the	&#13;  heterosexual	&#13;  soccer	&#13;  
mom	&#13;  family	&#13;  who	&#13;  would	&#13;  make	&#13;  the	&#13;  core	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  league,	&#13;  make	&#13;  the	&#13;  majority	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  league.	&#13;  When	&#13;  I	&#13;  
came	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  and	&#13;  tried	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  thing,	&#13;  I	&#13;  went	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  Metropolitan	&#13;  [Community]	&#13;  
Church	&#13;  and	&#13;  appealed	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  only	&#13;  place	&#13;  I	&#13;  knew,	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community,	&#13;  and	&#13;  got	&#13;  women	&#13;  out	&#13;  
to	&#13;  play.	&#13;  But	&#13;  nobody	&#13;  would	&#13;  volunteer	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  board	&#13;  and	&#13;  that	&#13;  was	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  difference	&#13;  for	&#13;  me,	&#13;  made	&#13;  it	&#13;  
much	&#13;  harder	&#13;  for	&#13;  me	&#13;  to	&#13;  organize.	&#13;  It	&#13;  took	&#13;  a	&#13;  lot	&#13;  more	&#13;  of	&#13;  my	&#13;  energy	&#13;  because	&#13;  we	&#13;  weren’t	&#13;  a	&#13;  group	&#13;  
whereas	&#13;  in	&#13;  Lansing,	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  seven	&#13;  members,	&#13;  eight	&#13;  members	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  board	&#13;  and	&#13;  only	&#13;  one	&#13;  of	&#13;  
them	&#13;  was	&#13;  not	&#13;  a	&#13;  lesbian.	&#13;  Whereas	&#13;  here,	&#13;  I	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  there	&#13;  was	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  board,	&#13;  except	&#13;  
myself,	&#13;  who	&#13;  was	&#13;  bisexual	&#13;  or	&#13;  lesbian,	&#13;  so	&#13;  it	&#13;  made	&#13;  a	&#13;  difference.	&#13;  I	&#13;  just	&#13;  have	&#13;  not	&#13;  been	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  find	&#13;  to	&#13;  
connect	&#13;  with	&#13;  a	&#13;  separate	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community.	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  very	&#13;  much	&#13;  integrated	&#13;  into	&#13;  the—it	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  gay	&#13;  
community	&#13;  rather	&#13;  than	&#13;  women’s	&#13;  community.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:16:01	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  Have	&#13;  you	&#13;  found	&#13;  a	&#13;  difference	&#13;  since	&#13;  the	&#13;  gay	&#13;  movement	&#13;  has	&#13;  picked	&#13;  up	&#13;  and	&#13;  gotten	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  
cover	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  national	&#13;  recognition	&#13;  that	&#13;  it	&#13;  is	&#13;  starting	&#13;  to	&#13;  become	&#13;  this	&#13;  thing	&#13;  where	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  okay	&#13;  
and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  what’s	&#13;  coming	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  pride	&#13;  and	&#13;  this	&#13;  acceptance	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  haven’t	&#13;  really	&#13;  seen	&#13;  
before,	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of,	&#13;  the	&#13;  rainbow	&#13;  colors	&#13;  burst	&#13;  through,	&#13;  have	&#13;  you	&#13;  seen	&#13;  a	&#13;  difference	&#13;  down	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  
Floyd	&#13;  or	&#13;  in	&#13;  Roanoke?	&#13;  	&#13;

EW:	&#13;  We	&#13;  had	&#13;  our	&#13;  first	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  parade	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  two	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago,	&#13;  this	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  the	&#13;  third	&#13;  year,	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  say	&#13;  
would	&#13;  be	&#13;  because	&#13;  we	&#13;  are	&#13;  really	&#13;  having	&#13;  problems.	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  only	&#13;  happening	&#13;  because	&#13;  of	&#13;  myself	&#13;  and	&#13;  
two	&#13;  other	&#13;  people.	&#13;  The	&#13;  [larger]	&#13;  community	&#13;  is	&#13;  very	&#13;  supportive	&#13;  if	&#13;  we	&#13;  go	&#13;  ask	&#13;  them	&#13;  for	&#13;  help,	&#13;  but	&#13;  if	&#13;  
the	&#13;  three	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  decided	&#13;  we	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  any	&#13;  more	&#13;  energy	&#13;  for	&#13;  it,	&#13;  then	&#13;  it	&#13;  just	&#13;  would	&#13;  not	&#13;  happen.	&#13;  
The	&#13;  very	&#13;  first	&#13;  parade	&#13;  we	&#13;  had	&#13;  [we	&#13;  had	&#13;  to	&#13;  march	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  sidewalk]	&#13;  and	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  still	&#13;  marching	&#13;  on	&#13;  the	&#13;  
sidewalk.	&#13;  Part	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  because	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  only	&#13;  has	&#13;  two	&#13;  main	&#13;  streets	&#13;  and	&#13;  both	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  are	&#13;  state	&#13;  
roads.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  diesels	&#13;  come	&#13;  through	&#13;  on	&#13;  both	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  and	&#13;  to	&#13;  block	&#13;  that	&#13;  off	&#13;  takes	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  deal	&#13;  with	&#13;  
V-­‐DOT	&#13;  [Virginia	&#13;  Department	&#13;  of	&#13;  Transportation]	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  state	&#13;  permission	&#13;  sort	&#13;  of	&#13;  thing.	&#13;  They’re	&#13;  
reluctant	&#13;  to	&#13;  block	&#13;  off	&#13;  any	&#13;  of	&#13;  those	&#13;  main	&#13;  streets	&#13;  for	&#13;  us	&#13;  marching	&#13;  on.	&#13;  Anything	&#13;  else	&#13;  we	&#13;  would	&#13;  
march	&#13;  on	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  side	&#13;  streets	&#13;  and	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  not	&#13;  the	&#13;  same	&#13;  [as	&#13;  main	&#13;  street]	&#13;  so	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  still	&#13;  walking	&#13;  
on	&#13;  the	&#13;  sidewalk.	&#13;  We	&#13;  started	&#13;  out	&#13;  with	&#13;  about	&#13;  forty	&#13;  people	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  we	&#13;  moved	&#13;  up	&#13;  to	&#13;  fifty	&#13;  people	&#13;  
and	&#13;  that	&#13;  seems	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  where	&#13;  we’re	&#13;  at.	&#13;  	&#13;  We	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  seem	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  going	&#13;  any	&#13;  further	&#13;  than	&#13;  that	&#13;  …	&#13;  and	&#13;  
again	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  only	&#13;  the	&#13;  three	&#13;  of	&#13;  us	&#13;  doing	&#13;  it	&#13;  …	&#13;  at	&#13;  any	&#13;  point	&#13;  we	&#13;  could	&#13;  all	&#13;  just	&#13;  say	&#13;  “enough,”	&#13;  and	&#13;  I	&#13;  
don’t	&#13;  think	&#13;  it	&#13;  would	&#13;  happen	&#13;  any	&#13;  further…	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  thinking	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  northern	&#13;  states	&#13;  when	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  
not	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  rural	&#13;  areas	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  real	&#13;  sense	&#13;  of	&#13;  safety	&#13;  that	&#13;  didn’t	&#13;  exist	&#13;  before.	&#13;  Particularly	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  
Supreme	&#13;  Court	&#13;  deciding	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  decided	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  marriage	&#13;  situation.	&#13;  But	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  
go	&#13;  very	&#13;  far	&#13;  into	&#13;  the	&#13;  rural	&#13;  areas	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  southern	&#13;  states...	&#13;  I’m	&#13;  not	&#13;  sure	&#13;  what	&#13;  the	&#13;  southwest	&#13;  states	&#13;  
are	&#13;  like,	&#13;  but	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  southern	&#13;  states	&#13;  you	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  to	&#13;  go	&#13;  very	&#13;  far	&#13;  out	&#13;  before	&#13;  it	&#13;  becomes	&#13;

�dangerous	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  out.	&#13;  I	&#13;  saw	&#13;  a	&#13;  bumper	&#13;  sticker	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  that	&#13;  said	&#13;  ‘Disappear	&#13;  Fear,’	&#13;  and	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  
in	&#13;  rainbow	&#13;  [colors].	&#13;  The	&#13;  idea	&#13;  being	&#13;  that	&#13;  if	&#13;  we	&#13;  stick	&#13;  together	&#13;  we	&#13;  can	&#13;  make	&#13;  the	&#13;  fear	&#13;  that	&#13;  keeps	&#13;  us	&#13;  
from	&#13;  being	&#13;  who	&#13;  we	&#13;  are	&#13;  disappear	&#13;  but	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  bumper	&#13;  sticker	&#13;  speaks	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  fear	&#13;  that	&#13;  exists	&#13;  
down	&#13;  in	&#13;  this	&#13;  area.	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  saw	&#13;  anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  northern	&#13;  …	&#13;  in	&#13;  Michigan	&#13;  I	&#13;  never	&#13;  saw	&#13;  
anything	&#13;  like	&#13;  that.	&#13;  	&#13;  
	&#13;  
1:19:36	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  feel	&#13;  like	&#13;  [the]	&#13;  threat	&#13;  here	&#13;  for	&#13;  that	&#13;  persecution	&#13;  is	&#13;  more	&#13;  real	&#13;  than	&#13;  it	&#13;  was	&#13;  in	&#13;  Michigan?	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:19:41	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  Oh	&#13;  definitely,	&#13;  from	&#13;  among	&#13;  other	&#13;  things	&#13;  the	&#13;  gun	&#13;  laws	&#13;  that	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  has.	&#13;  This	&#13;  is	&#13;  an	&#13;  open	&#13;  carry	&#13;  
state.	&#13;  It’s	&#13;  a	&#13;  shell	&#13;  issue.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  want	&#13;  a	&#13;  concealed	&#13;  weapon	&#13;  ...	&#13;  even	&#13;  when	&#13;  we	&#13;  do	&#13;  the	&#13;  parade	&#13;  march	&#13;  
now	&#13;  I	&#13;  worry	&#13;  “is	&#13;  somebody	&#13;  gonna	&#13;  drive	&#13;  by?”	&#13;  And	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  been	&#13;  very	&#13;  bluntly	&#13;  said	&#13;  that	&#13;  this	&#13;  [the	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  
March]	&#13;  could	&#13;  only	&#13;  happen	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  If	&#13;  you	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  do	&#13;  it	&#13;  in	&#13;  Franklin	&#13;  or	&#13;  in	&#13;  Patrick	&#13;  County	&#13;  the	&#13;  danger	&#13;  
would	&#13;  be	&#13;  higher.	&#13;  There	&#13;  is	&#13;  something	&#13;  about	&#13;  this	&#13;  town,	&#13;  its	&#13;  artistic	&#13;  mix	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  farmers,	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;

whether	&#13;  you’re	&#13;  a	&#13;  hippie	&#13;  or	&#13;  an	&#13;  old	&#13;  farmer.	&#13;  That	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  integration	&#13;  occurred	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  late	&#13;  
sixties	&#13;  and	&#13;  early	&#13;  seventies	&#13;  and	&#13;  worked	&#13;  its	&#13;  way	&#13;  through	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  the	&#13;  attitude	&#13;  of	&#13;  this	&#13;  town	&#13;  is	&#13;  one	&#13;  
of	&#13;  those	&#13;  few	&#13;  towns	&#13;  where	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  actually	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  pride	&#13;  march	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  rural	&#13;  county.	&#13;  It	&#13;  just	&#13;  
wouldn’t	&#13;  happen	&#13;  in	&#13;  other	&#13;  rural	&#13;  counties	&#13;  because	&#13;  they	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  a	&#13;  town	&#13;  like	&#13;  Floyd.	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:21:06	&#13;

1:21:13	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  That	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  our	&#13;  hope,	&#13;  but	&#13;  it	&#13;  hasn’t	&#13;  happened	&#13;  at	&#13;  least	&#13;  as	&#13;  far	&#13;  as	&#13;  we	&#13;  know.	&#13;  Anything	&#13;  that’s	&#13;  
happening	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  in	&#13;  some	&#13;  manner	&#13;  ripples	&#13;  out	&#13;  to	&#13;  Franklin	&#13;  and	&#13;  Patrick	&#13;  County	&#13;  and	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  one	&#13;  
of	&#13;  the	&#13;  reasons	&#13;  that	&#13;  we	&#13;  try	&#13;  to	&#13;  keep	&#13;  the	&#13;  parade	&#13;  going.	&#13;  But	&#13;  I	&#13;  haven’t	&#13;  noticed	&#13;  any	&#13;  particular	&#13;  
strangers	&#13;  or	&#13;  group	&#13;  of	&#13;  people	&#13;  or	&#13;  crowd.	&#13;  Again,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  while	&#13;  they	&#13;  might	&#13;  be	&#13;  happy	&#13;  that	&#13;  it’s	&#13;  
happening	&#13;  here	&#13;  in	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  and	&#13;  Floyd	&#13;  might	&#13;  be	&#13;  a	&#13;  symbol	&#13;  of	&#13;  “it	&#13;  could	&#13;  happen	&#13;  in	&#13;  our	&#13;  town	&#13;  
eventually”	&#13;  anybody	&#13;  who	&#13;  wants	&#13;  to	&#13;  feel	&#13;  more	&#13;  safe	&#13;  goes	&#13;  to	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  Pride	&#13;  March.	&#13;  That	&#13;  is	&#13;  
why	&#13;  they	&#13;  [Roanoke]	&#13;  moved	&#13;  from	&#13;  a	&#13;  one	&#13;  half-­‐day	&#13;  event	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  two	&#13;  full-­‐day	&#13;  event,	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  two	&#13;  full	&#13;

is	&#13;  the	&#13;  high	&#13;  school	&#13;  students	&#13;  who	&#13;  can’t	&#13;  drive	&#13;  a	&#13;  car	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;  that	&#13;  permission…	&#13;  they	&#13;  don’t	&#13;  have	&#13;

elected.	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  very	&#13;  possible	&#13;  that	&#13;  this	&#13;  won’t	&#13;  happen	&#13;  again	&#13;  for	&#13;  thirty,	&#13;  forty,	&#13;  fifty	&#13;  years.	&#13;  Some	&#13;  people	&#13;  
say	&#13;  that	&#13;  this	&#13;  divide	&#13;  between	&#13;  Republicans	&#13;  and	&#13;  Democrats	&#13;  is	&#13;  a	&#13;  backlash	&#13;  to	&#13;  the	&#13;  fact	&#13;  that	&#13;  a	&#13;  black	&#13;  
man	&#13;  got	&#13;  elected	&#13;  president.	&#13;  So	&#13;  this	&#13;  thing	&#13;  about	&#13;  gays	&#13;  being	&#13;  married,	&#13;  I	&#13;  would	&#13;  not	&#13;  be	&#13;  surprised	&#13;  that	&#13;  
within	&#13;  ten	&#13;  fifteen	&#13;  years	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  more	&#13;  violence	&#13;  against	&#13;  gay	&#13;  men	&#13;  and	&#13;  women	&#13;  than	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  now.	&#13;  
Because	&#13;  there	&#13;  seems	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  US,	&#13;  there	&#13;  seems	&#13;  to	&#13;  be,	&#13;  this	&#13;  liberal	&#13;  idea	&#13;  surges	&#13;  forward	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  
this	&#13;  conservative	&#13;  idea	&#13;  says	&#13;  [vocal	&#13;  sound	&#13;  meaning	&#13;  ‘not	&#13;  so	&#13;  fast’].	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  possible	&#13;  anymore	&#13;  to	&#13;  
	&#13;  

23	&#13;  

�discipline	&#13;  your	&#13;  children	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  you	&#13;  used	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  discipline	&#13;  them.	&#13;  It	&#13;  is	&#13;  not	&#13;  possible	&#13;  for	&#13;  a	&#13;  
man	&#13;  to	&#13;  physically	&#13;  abuse,	&#13;  a	&#13;  husband	&#13;  to	&#13;  physically	&#13;  abuse	&#13;  his	&#13;  wife	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  he	&#13;  used	&#13;  to,	&#13;  and	&#13;  even	&#13;  
the	&#13;  churches	&#13;  have	&#13;  stopped	&#13;  saying	&#13;  “if	&#13;  a	&#13;  man,	&#13;  if	&#13;  your	&#13;  husband	&#13;  is	&#13;  beating	&#13;  on	&#13;  you,	&#13;  you	&#13;  should	&#13;  take	&#13;  
it	&#13;  because	&#13;  your	&#13;  husband	&#13;  is	&#13;  the	&#13;  head	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  household,”	&#13;  even	&#13;  the	&#13;  churches	&#13;  have	&#13;  stopped	&#13;  saying	&#13;  
that.	&#13;  So	&#13;  there	&#13;  is,	&#13;  you	&#13;  can	&#13;  look	&#13;  back	&#13;  and	&#13;  say	&#13;  a	&#13;  hundred	&#13;  years	&#13;  ago	&#13;  we	&#13;  made	&#13;  this	&#13;  movement	&#13;  
forward,	&#13;  but	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  always	&#13;  this	&#13;  forward	&#13;  back,	&#13;  forward	&#13;  back.	&#13;  If	&#13;  someone	&#13;  who	&#13;  grew	&#13;  up	&#13;  here	&#13;  and	&#13;  
is	&#13;  gay,	&#13;  they	&#13;  would	&#13;  need	&#13;  to	&#13;  leave	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  come	&#13;  back	&#13;  if	&#13;  they	&#13;  found	&#13;  the	&#13;  inner	&#13;  strength	&#13;  to	&#13;  identify	&#13;  
who	&#13;  they	&#13;  are	&#13;  and...	&#13;  I	&#13;  think	&#13;  that	&#13;  almost	&#13;  every	&#13;  kid	&#13;  growing	&#13;  up	&#13;  in	&#13;  a	&#13;  small	&#13;  town	&#13;  moves	&#13;  out	&#13;  as	&#13;  soon	&#13;  
as	&#13;  they	&#13;  can	&#13;  and	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  at	&#13;  some	&#13;  point	&#13;  comes	&#13;  back,	&#13;  so	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  that	&#13;  is	&#13;  just	&#13;  a	&#13;  general	&#13;  small	&#13;  town	&#13;  
thing,	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  additional	&#13;  part	&#13;  is	&#13;  that	&#13;  person	&#13;  is	&#13;  gay	&#13;  and	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  person	&#13;  grew	&#13;  up	&#13;  with	&#13;  the	&#13;  
prejudice	&#13;  that	&#13;  goes	&#13;  with	&#13;  that,	&#13;  of	&#13;  being	&#13;  different.	&#13;  Full	&#13;  lesbians	&#13;  and	&#13;  full	&#13;  homosexual	&#13;  males	&#13;  are	&#13;  
only	&#13;  ten	&#13;  percent	&#13;  [each]	&#13;  and	&#13;  only	&#13;  form	&#13;  twenty	&#13;  percent	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  [general]	&#13;  population	&#13;  so	&#13;  that	&#13;  makes	&#13;  
them	&#13;  out	&#13;  of	&#13;  the	&#13;  norm	&#13;  automatically,	&#13;  and	&#13;  high	&#13;  schools,	&#13;  junior	&#13;  high	&#13;  schools	&#13;  being	&#13;  what	&#13;  they	&#13;  are,	&#13;  
that	&#13;  means	&#13;  they	&#13;  get	&#13;  picked	&#13;  on.	&#13;  Usually	&#13;  people	&#13;  leave	&#13;  and	&#13;  then	&#13;  maybe	&#13;  they	&#13;  come	&#13;  back.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:34:51	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  But	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  see	&#13;  hope	&#13;  for	&#13;  the	&#13;  community?	&#13;  Do	&#13;  you	&#13;  see	&#13;  hope	&#13;  for	&#13;  these	&#13;  young	&#13;  people?	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:34:56	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  Yes,	&#13;  they	&#13;  can	&#13;  always	&#13;  go	&#13;  to	&#13;  a	&#13;  big	&#13;  city.	&#13;  New	&#13;  York	&#13;  and	&#13;  San	&#13;  Francisco,	&#13;  the	&#13;  big	&#13;  cities	&#13;  are	&#13;  always	&#13;  
more	&#13;  forgiving.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

TP:	&#13;  Well,	&#13;  as	&#13;  an	&#13;  ending	&#13;  question,	&#13;  if	&#13;  there	&#13;  is	&#13;  anything	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  be	&#13;  able	&#13;  to	&#13;  give	&#13;  advice	&#13;  and	&#13;  
not	&#13;  just	&#13;  to	&#13;  you	&#13;  know	&#13;  someone	&#13;  in	&#13;  the	&#13;  community	&#13;  but	&#13;  to	&#13;  anyone…	&#13;  do	&#13;  you	&#13;  think	&#13;  how	&#13;  you	&#13;  have	&#13;  
lived	&#13;  your	&#13;  life	&#13;  and	&#13;  how	&#13;  looking	&#13;  back	&#13;  in	&#13;  ways	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  would	&#13;  have	&#13;  wanted	&#13;  to	&#13;  be	&#13;  different	&#13;  or	&#13;  
ways	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  are	&#13;  very	&#13;  happy	&#13;  about	&#13;  what	&#13;  you	&#13;  did?	&#13;  Is	&#13;  there	&#13;  anything	&#13;  that	&#13;  you	&#13;  could	&#13;  give	&#13;  advice	&#13;  
of	&#13;  you	&#13;  know...	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:37:13	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  I	&#13;  am	&#13;  shaped,	&#13;  my	&#13;  personality	&#13;  is	&#13;  shaped	&#13;  from	&#13;  my	&#13;  parents	&#13;  and	&#13;  the	&#13;  way	&#13;  they	&#13;  raised	&#13;  me.	&#13;  I	&#13;  
would	&#13;  only	&#13;  wish	&#13;  that	&#13;  everyone	&#13;  else	&#13;  could	&#13;  have	&#13;  that	&#13;  kind	&#13;  of	&#13;  experience.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:37:43	&#13;  
TP:	&#13;  Well	&#13;  thank	&#13;  you	&#13;  so	&#13;  much	&#13;  for	&#13;  talking	&#13;  to	&#13;  us,	&#13;  for	&#13;  sharing	&#13;  your	&#13;  story,	&#13;  we	&#13;  really	&#13;  appreciate	&#13;  that.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:37:49	&#13;  
EW:	&#13;  Thank	&#13;  you	&#13;  for	&#13;  asking.	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1:37:54	&#13;

�0:01
Interviewer: My name is Rachel Barton. I’m here with Rosemary Wyman. It’s the 27th of
February 2016 and we are in Floyd Virginia doing an LGBT oral history project for Dr.
Rosenthal’s class.1 So Rosemary, would you mind starting by telling me a little bit about where
you grew up?
0:23	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah, I wasn’t born in the South. I was born in Suffern, New York, which is about 30
miles from New York City. My dad worked in the city primarily, and it was like this. It was rural
like this when I was growing up. I was born in 1952 and graduated high school in 1970, so the
‘60s were kind of my period of coming of age. I was the youngest in my family. Four older
brothers, very traditional Christian family. My mother was a Catholic, raised us as Catholics. My
father was an Episcopalian and, you know, was all work no play. [laughter]
1:12	&#13;  
Interviewer: [laughter] Pretty strict?
1:15	&#13;  
Rosemary: Pretty strict! Although we did have a lot more freedom than children now have in
terms of exploring and learning to know themselves.
1:26	&#13;  
Interviewer: Yeah? So as far as growing up in New York, what would you say was different or
similar about where you grew up to Roanoke?
1:38	&#13;  
Rosemary: Okay. Well, New York to Roanoke was not similar at all.
1:46	&#13;  
Interviewer: Yeah? Very different?
1:48	&#13;  
Rosemary: My mother actually had a friend who grew up in Roanoke and we loved her. Her
name was Francis Avery and she was a southern belle for sure. But we were afraid of the South,
because, you know, I remember all of the bitter struggles around desegregation. And all of the
ugliness was the news that came to us. And so, I can remember saying to myself and to my
friends, I will never ever live in the South, so…
2:20	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
1

	&#13;  

	&#13;  The	&#13;  class	&#13;  is	&#13;  INQ	&#13;  300:	&#13;  Sex	&#13;  &amp;	&#13;  Storytelling.	&#13;  It	&#13;  took	&#13;  place	&#13;  during	&#13;  the	&#13;  spring	&#13;  semester	&#13;  2016	&#13;  at	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  College.	&#13;  
2	&#13;  

�Interviewer: Yeah, it had that connotation.
2:22	&#13;  
Rosemary: [laughter] So discrimination was something that my mother as a social worker and a
political activist worked really hard against. You know, she…I’m going to sort of flip flop here.
2:37	&#13;  
Interviewer: Oh, that’s fine.
2:39	&#13;  
Rosemary: She certainly had tolerance for people who were homosexual or lesbian. I don’t think
she had any awareness of folks who were bi [bisexual] or transgender. You know, that was kind
of beyond her realm. She died in 1997. But, interestingly, she picked up on the fact that my son,
who was eleven when she died, was probably gay.
3:10	&#13;  
Interviewer: Really?
3:11	&#13;  
Rosemary: And she sent me a message through one of her care providers after she died. This
lady Mary came to me and said “You know, your mother didn’t want to say anything because
she didn’t want to act like this was a given.” Because Max hadn’t identified himself at that point.
“But, she said to tell you that if it turns out Max is gay, she is fine with that.”
3:38	&#13;  
Interviewer: That’s great!
3:39	&#13;  
Rosemary: So, anyway, that tells you a little bit about my mother. My dad was not very tolerant
of differences. [laughter]
3:47	&#13;  
Interviewer: Yeah? He wasn’t a political activist?
3:50	&#13;  
Rosemary: No! I once dated an African-American, and he wasn’t happy about that.
3:58	&#13;  
Interviewer: But your mom did political activism?
4:00	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yes.

	&#13;  

3	&#13;  

�4:01	&#13;  
Interviewer: It surrounded segregation particularly?
4:04	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah, she taught graduate students at Fordham University, and she and her teams
would do these sting operations on landlords in our area [laughter]
4:15	&#13;  
Interviewer: Wow! So it was pretty involved activism?
4:19	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah.
4:20	&#13;  
Interviewer: Wow, so as far as growing up and coming of age in the ‘60s in New York, what was
that environment like? Was there a lot of social activism going on? You were aware of the South
and the differences that were happening….
4:33	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah, and, of course, New York during the ‘60s was a pretty wild place, kind of like
it was on the West Coast, too. There was…well, at that time there was a lot of crime in New
York City, but as a teenager it was kind of my playground, and so I got to see a lot of great rock
and roll [laughter]
4:59	&#13;  
Interviewer: [laughter] a lot of good shows?
5:01	&#13;  
Rosemary: A lot of, you know, interesting war protests were happening there, and I went to
school for a year in Boston, and [protests were happening] also there. Yeah, I don’t think
anything as I was a young child or before my teenage years really….except for being brought up
in a rural area. It doesn’t really translate to here.
5:25	&#13;  
Interviewer: Yeah, it was a totally different kind of environment.
5:27	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yes.
5:30	&#13;  
Interviewer: So, you mentioned going to school in Boston, what was that like?

	&#13;  

4	&#13;  

�5:37	&#13;  
Rosemary: I thought I really wanted to go to school there. There are tons of arts there, and I’m
very interested in the arts, but because I came from a place like this and I was put in the heart of
the city, I really couldn’t stand it there [laughter]
5:55	&#13;  
Interviewer: [laughter] too much going on?
5:58	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah, I needed to feel connected to the earth. So I wasn’t prepared for that, and I
think I kind of spiraled into a depression. I really didn’t know what I was doing, I didn’t know
what I wanted to be or do, so….
6:12	&#13;  
Interviewer: Was this when you were in college?
6:14	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah, it was like 1970, ’71.
6:16	&#13;  
Interviewer: So you went to Boston for a year, what did you do after that?
6:20	&#13;  
Rosemary: Then I came back home, lived in my hometown, not with my parents, and I worked in
a bookstore. Then I left there, and went and lived on a farm that was owned by my sister-in-law’s
parents. My brother was flying in Southeast Asia, and she had taken her kids back to her parents’
area, so I went and lived there for a while, and then I moved from there to Chapel Hill.
6:51
Interviewer: Chapel Hill, North Carolina?
6:53	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yes, and worked at the student bookstore there. Moved from there, with another
bookstore job, to Charlotte, North Carolina. And that’s where we met—that’s where I met my
husband. My first husband and I had two children together, and then Walter and I got together in
1980, and he had four children, I had two children, and we raised those children together and had
two more children, Max and Emma.
7:28	&#13;  
Interviewer: Wow, so a big household? [laughter]
7:30	&#13;  

	&#13;  

5	&#13;  

�Rosemary: Yeah, a family of eight kids.
7:32 	&#13;  
Interviewer: Wow! How’s that?
7:35	&#13;  
Rosemary: It’s crazy! [laughter] You know, everything in our environment is really geared for
the smaller family.
7:45	&#13;  
Interviewer: Right, absolutely.
7:47	&#13;  
Rosemary: If you think about how much money people are spending on raising one child, we
managed to do it on an income—one working income—of a self-employed person because he
did a lot of bartering, and, anyway, it was a very different scene.
8:08	&#13;  
Interviewer: How would you say that having all your children, having this big family, affected
you?
8:23
Rosemary: [laughter] Well, I kind of came into life knowing two things that I wanted: that I
wanted to be a mother and that I wanted to be a nurse, and the nurse thing didn’t really happen to
me until much later. But, I got my wish. And it’s been my primary spiritual path I guess, trying
to learn how to, you know, put my own desires aside and put others first. Learning how to do
that, that’s been the primary effect of it. It’s been hard to know who I am and what my rhythms
are, so once the nest was empty, I kind of had to really devote myself to figuring those kinds of
things out, because I’d been stretching myself really thin for a really long time, and I didn’t quite
know who I was anymore.
9:27	&#13;  
Interviewer: Right, so motherhood for you, you would describe as kind of a spiritual aspect of
your life?
9:35	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah, and a lot of joy too.
9:37
Interviewer: A lot of joy?
9:40	&#13;  

	&#13;  

6	&#13;  

�Rosemary: And the reason I go to Charlotte every week right now is to be with two of my
grandchildren, and I don’t really like to go to Charlotte. I like it in the country. But because those
kids are there and the time is very limited to be with them… they bring a lot of joy into my life,
and I think the relationship offers them something they wouldn’t have otherwise.
10:05	&#13;  
Interviewer: Right, so can you talk a bit about all your kids? What they do, what they’re like?
10:11	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah. Okay, we have a daughter who is 46 years old, or will be this year. She has two
children, one who’s 24 and one who’s 18, and her 24 year old has two children. She lost her
husband about 12 years ago, so she’s really struggled to raise her children, and it’s been a huge
challenge for her. She lives in North Carolina, outside of Charlotte. Then we have a son, Joshua,
who is 45? 44? [laughter] And twins who are 42, I think, and all three of those guys have Fragile
X syndrome. They were diagnosed early in elementary school, so they’ve been special needs
guys, but they’re actually pretty high functioning. They feed and dress themselves, they have
their own interests. They do need quite a lot of guidance and supervision, and they all live in
group homes in Charlotte. So that’s one of the reasons my husband still goes down there to work
a couple of days a week, to see them and support them and love them. I have a daughter who
lives in Charlotte with two grandchildren, she and her husband. She moved back to Charlotte;
she went to school in Atlanta. She’s an attorney and her husband is on the road a lot, so they’re
grateful for the support that we’re able to give them during the week. I have a son, who is an exmarine, lives in San Diego. He is a structural engineer, and he would be 37, my daughter is 38,
and then there’s like nine years between that son and Max, who was born in 1987. That’s whose
wedding invitation, or save the date, I gave you.2 So he was born in Charlotte, and kind of from
the age of two, was looking really different to us from all the other kids.
13:08	&#13;  
Interviewer: Yeah, so it was kind of immediately recognizable?
13:10	&#13;  
Rosemary: He went through a phase where he needed to wear dresses all the time.
13:16	&#13;  
Interviewer: As a child?
13:18	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah. Really, from age two on that’s all he wanted to wear. And we used to have
struggles.
13:31	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  
2

	&#13;  This	&#13;  item	&#13;  is	&#13;  part	&#13;  of	&#13;  Rosemary	&#13;  Wyman’s	&#13;  series	&#13;  within	&#13;  the	&#13;  LGBTQ	&#13;  History	&#13;  Collection,	&#13;  Virginia	&#13;  Room,	&#13;  Roanoke	&#13;  Public	&#13;  
Library.	&#13;  

	&#13;  

7	&#13;  

�Interviewer: It was a challenge?
13:32	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah, because he wanted to wear them to preschool, and it was not the environment
that it is today. It’s pretty tough for people today. So, I can remember having conversations with
him. He would want to go to the grocery store with me and he would want to be wearing his
dress and his red patent leather shoes, and I would say “Okay, but when the lady comes up to me
and says ‘what a cute daughter you have,’ I’m not going to set her straight. But it’s going to be
up to you if you want to not say anything or say anything.” And I think, you know, at the time, I
met—I think it was the year that Max was born—I met somebody in a support group who very
shortly started the transition from male to female. And so, for me, that was incredibly important
in terms of knowing how to be with Max, knowing to just back off, let him… of course I wanted
him to be safe. [laughter] We did insist that he wear pants to regular school, you know? And he’s
not a transgender person, but he does identify as gay.
14:55	&#13;  
Interviewer: When you first noticed these differences in him, did you think maybe it was a
gender identity thing? What was your perception of it?
15:07	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah, I thought it was a gender identity thing.
15:10	&#13;  
Interviewer: And he was really young?
15:11	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah, I grew up as a dancer and actually danced professionally for a while in
Charlotte and had gay friends. I don’t have any sisters that were born into my family, but my
sister by choice whom I met in high school is a lesbian, so I was pretty familiar with how
different people, kind of, present to the world, and Max presented as very feminine in the world.
So I felt like it was a gender identity thing, and, you know, he didn’t really come right out and
say so until he was in seventh or eighth grade.
15:55	&#13;  
Interviewer: He was in middle school?
15:57	&#13;  
Rosemary: Yeah.
15:59	&#13;  
Interviewer: How did he bring it up to you guys?	&#13;  
16:03	&#13;  
	&#13;  

8	&#13;  

�RW: Well, he had a really good friend here in Floyd—I guess it was ninth grade really—because
we were just letting him…. he had long hair, we were just letting him be who he was. But, at
school, they were pushing him to identify, and he actually had some child say that he was going
to kill him. He came to us with that, so we talked about it, and I basically said: “Hey look, this is
what we’ve noticed. We’ve noticed this for a long time. Who do you think you are?” And then
once he…. I guess at that point he felt like he was free and safe enough—because we were
asking and saying we will support you—to identify himself as gay. And then we were able to
address it with the school system. He had quite a bit of harassment, he actually had teacher
harassment there at Floyd County High School, and we had to go in and basically… I think the
teacher was unaware of his behavior. He thought he was just teasing. 	&#13;  
17:31	&#13;  
RB: mhmm, just a joke?	&#13;  
17:33	&#13;  
RW: So he needed to be educated. [laughter] But anyway, I forget what the original question
was. 	&#13;  
17:43	&#13;  
RB: [laughter] That’s okay. 	&#13;  
17:45	&#13;  
RW: But that’s when he came out, so we have been with him on that journey and encouraging
him. Oh, I remember when that death threat happened, I said to him “Hey Max, you don’t have
to go to school today if you don’t want to.” And he had been a person who was kind of not
engaging in after-school activities or things. We were new to the area. I had let him home school
the first year rather than go back to elementary school because elementary school goes through
seventh grade here. He’d already been in an arts middle school in Charlotte, and just didn’t want
to do the backtracking. So, he said “No, I’m going.” And we stepped up, talked to the sheriff,
talked to the principal, the other child was dealt with. And from then on it was kind of like, he
said “fuck it!” [laughter] And he just went for whatever he wanted in high school, and he was
extremely popular, and he was very gifted, and did a lot of things really well, and just kind of
came into his own despite those sort of threats that were on the edge of his social group. 	&#13;  
19:18	&#13;  
RB: So, would you say the community around here, the community in Floyd, was relatively
accepting of your son in high school? Or was it…	&#13;  
19:24	&#13;  
RW: There were elements that certainly were, and then other elements that were just very
neutral, and then there were other elements that were vocal. 	&#13;  
19:37	&#13;  

	&#13;  

9	&#13;  

�RB: Vocally against?	&#13;  
19:38	&#13;  
RW: Yeah. 	&#13;  
19:39	&#13;  
RB: How did he deal with that and how did you guys deal with that? 	&#13;  
19:44	&#13;  
RW: Usually we would talk about it, occasionally we would confront it, but mostly he just kept
his friendships… he’s a good friend, and he kept them strong, and let other people worry about
their own stuff. 	&#13;  
20:10	&#13;  
RB: So, for the most part it could be, kind of, pushed away?
20:14	&#13;  
RW: Yeah. Of course, it’s one thing when you’ve got somebody where you can protect them.
When he went off to school in Richmond he went to VCU [Virginia Commonwealth University],
and there were some things that happened there that were scary for us. He met and was involved
with a young man in another city who, I think, was abusing drugs and alcohol and probably had a
lot of self-loathing, and he was abusive. I can remember one night I was getting ready for bed
here. We were all just about to crash, and Max called and said: “I just got back from this other
place and here’s what happened.” I said to Walter: “We’re going to Richmond, and we’re going
tonight.” Because, if it had been a daughter….I don’t know. I just felt like it needed an
immediate response from us to say “this is not okay and you’re worth more than this.” And, for a
while we kind of worked on that whole aspect of what he could hope for in a relationship, what
he had the right to. That’s one of the things that I feel was a huge plus for me to abandon my first
marriage and take up with Walter. My oldest daughter is very aware of what she was watching in
my first marriage, and all my kids have ever seen from Walter is respect and love for me. I wish I
could say that’s all I’ve ever given him [laughter]. I would have to be honest and say that I’m a
pretty volatile person sometimes. 	&#13;  
22:41	&#13;  
RB: So, your son went off to college in Richmond. What was the point where you felt like you
were getting involved in the activism and reaching out in the LGBT community? 	&#13;  
22:58	&#13;  
RW: Well, after the kids left, after Emma left, I did what was supposed to be a sensitivity
training with the teachers at Floyd High School. One of the faculty asked me to come and talk to
them. Our daughter is a lesbian, and she came through Floyd High School after Max, and she had
a huge crisis also, but it was more just a personal inner crisis rather than being attacked at school.
But one of the things that happened as a result was I developed relationships with other children
	&#13;  

10	&#13;  

�who were fringe children, who were identifying as either gay or bi, and they would come to me
and talk to me, whereas they weren’t safe in their own homes. 	&#13;  
24:00	&#13;  
RB: With their own parents?	&#13;  
24:02	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, so I did some advocacy work with those folks, and then I went and basically told the
faculty what they weren’t seeing. 	&#13;  
24:11	&#13;  
RB: mhmm, so a big part of it was at the schools?	&#13;  
24:15	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, I’ve done some writing. That was a one-time adventure, really. I would go back any
year, but we’ve actually encouraged other people to do that same thing so that we don’t always
see the same face. I started the Floyd PFLAG with my friend Kim O’Donnell.3 	&#13;  
24:37	&#13;  
RB: When did you start that?	&#13;  
24:39	&#13;  
RW: Well, I’m thinking it was maybe 2009 or ‘10. I’d have to look that up. 	&#13;  
24:52	&#13;  
RB: It was after your kids had graduated from the school system themselves?	&#13;  
24:55	&#13;  
RW: Yes. 	&#13;  
24:58	&#13;  
RB: So, when they were in school, what were the kinds of things that you were seeing that
prompted you to want to start the PFLAG?	&#13;  
25:04	&#13;  
RW: Honestly, I don’t think I would have thought of starting PFLAG. But my friend Karen Day
who runs the Plenty organization here also has a lesbian daughter.4 [She] was working with a
group, and I’m forgetting the name of it now, it’s kind of similar to PFLAG. And she and I were
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

�having some conversations, and she’s like “You know, maybe we should just start one here.” So,
I went ahead and did that. It did not pan out the way I had hoped at that time, but I think…do you
know who Jim Best is?5	&#13;  
25:47	&#13;  
RB: Yeah. 	&#13;  
25:48	&#13;  
RW: Okay, so Jim has taken over the leadership there, and I think it’s a much more vital
organization, and people are much more aware of it and, perhaps, more people who are just kind
of figuring out that their kids or somebody else in their family…perhaps some people are coming
more from that angle now. Before it was just a very small support group, and I didn’t actually
need that support. I was kind of wanting to be there for people who were like “Oh my god! This
is happening to us and our family!” [laughter]	&#13;  
26:26	&#13;  
RB: It was a crisis for them?	&#13;  
26:29	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, I wanted to give them a place to go, but it didn’t seem like, at that time, people in
Floyd were utilizing PFLAG for that. We’ve marched in the pride parade here in Floyd a couple
of times. It’s an itty-bitty parade but it’s fun. [laughter]	&#13;  
26:50	&#13;  
RB: Yeah, has involvement in PFLAG gotten better over the years, do you think?	&#13;  
26:56	&#13;  
RW: I think it’s a larger group and they’re doing more things. 	&#13;  
27:00	&#13;  
RB: The community is more receptive to it?	&#13;  
27:02	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, I think so.	&#13;  
27:04	&#13;  
RB: Would you say the experience of having a gay child, having gay children, really pushes
people to want to be more involved in that type of stuff?	&#13;  
27:15	&#13;  
	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;   	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;  	&#13;

	&#13;  Jim Best has also recorded an oral history interview for this project that is also housed in the LGBTQ History
Collection, Virginia Room, Roanoke Public Library.	&#13;  
	&#13;  

12	&#13;  

�RW: Oh yes. I’m trying to think how vocal I would be, you know? My heart would still be
against discrimination, but, if it weren’t this personal, I don’t know. I don’t know how much time
I would find for it. 	&#13;  
27:39	&#13;  
RB: The kind of things you experience when it’s your child versus when it’s someone you don’t
know. Are your children involved in activism at all?	&#13;  
27:48	&#13;  
RW: Somewhat. I would say they’ll show their faces for demonstrations and things like that. I
don’t know. They kind of think of the world as their own. I can’t fully say that for my daughter
but I think she’s getting to feel that way. It’s the other people’s problem, it’s not their problem.
[laughter] Our daughter lives out in California and she belongs to a Zen community out there
and the Zen community usually puts together a float for the San Francisco Pride Parade, so she’s
participated in that. 	&#13;  
28:52	&#13;  
RB: Pretty huge parade! Bigger than Floyd. 	&#13;  
28:55	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, I don’t think that they’re tremendously active. I was going to say, I realized that
before my kids were out, or had identified at all, I was doing demonstrations in Washington with
my friend who was trans and my sister. 	&#13;  
29:27	&#13;  
RB: So that was still something that you were involved in before. 	&#13;  
29:31	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, I was doing things like that in a support role. It’s like, “Oh, you’re going to go do
that, well I’ll come with you!” 	&#13;  
29:43	&#13;  
RB: Yeah, show your support. Did it become more personal after your children…?	&#13;  
29:48	&#13;  
RW: Yes. When you see what effect society’s views about anything like body shape or skin
color…what those views agitate in somebody. That whole notion of “am I worthy?” is something
that I wish nobody had to go through, but I don’t want my children ever wondering if they’re
worthy. 	&#13;  
30:32	&#13;  
RB: Do you think that was something that they really struggled with initially after coming out?	&#13;  

	&#13;  

13	&#13;  

�30:41	&#13;  
RW: Yeah. 	&#13;  
30:43	&#13;  
RB: And that’s, to you, a societal problem?	&#13;  
30:47	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, I think one of the things that’s pretty well known about homophobia is that some of
the folks who have it the worst are the people that are homosexual. That’s a big demon that they
have to work through. One of the reasons Walter and I are so tickled about the partner that Max
has now is because he came out to his family at about the same age that Max was when he came
out. He had support within his family, and so the playing field is kind of leveled in terms of the
amount of self-worth that they feel, and I feel like they’re on good footing. Some of the guys that
Max dated who were newly out, they were in a horrible mess. They just didn’t know who they
were and they were constantly either trying to please Max or please their parents or run away…
it was kind of crazy. 	&#13;  
32:08	&#13;  
RB: So, as far as the role of having a supportive family and going through that coming out
process, how important is that to you? 	&#13;  
32:20	&#13;  
RW: Well, I think if you think about any child who has gifts and challenges that they’re born
with, we would hope that their family, their extensive family, would support them in having the
courage to overcome their challenges and recognize their own strengths. So, I don’t see that as
any different… all of our kids had big challenges. 	&#13;  
32:55	&#13;  
RB: So, being gay is not necessarily distinguishable, as far as your role as a parent, from any
other problem that children have?	&#13;  
33:10	&#13;  
RW: Right, as long as I cannot be shut down because I’m believing that it’s a sin or something.
You know? That’s where those kids are really vulnerable, if their parents can’t even accept them
as they are. 	&#13;  
33:32	&#13;  
RB: And working through PFLAG, you had a lot of experiences with that, with parents who
were very reluctant, with parents who, kind of, lash out?	&#13;  
33:44	&#13;  

	&#13;  

14	&#13;  

�RW: No, those experiences, those things that I saw, are basically things that I saw when my kids
were in high school. As I said, those folks really didn’t show up at PFLAG when I was there, and
I haven’t been attending because we’re not around the days that the meetings are happening. I
know people, I read accounts…	&#13;  
34:21	&#13;  
RB: What would you say is where you want to see PFLAG and the Floyd community going as
far as their acceptance of an interaction with the LGBT community?	&#13;  
34:35	&#13;  
RW: Well, I would love for everyone in Floyd to know that PFLAG exists and for every child
and parent who are in the school system to know that there is support if they’re wondering if
they’re gay, if their parents are wondering if they’re gay. I think that going to other families
who’ve been through the experience rather than going out to the minister who might try to set
you on a path for a cure. [laughter] We know that that happens, and those cures are being taken
down by some very strong activism. They’re being disproved, but that’s just another abuse. Little
digression here, I grew up, as I said, in the ‘50s and ‘60s and, on my road there was a family who
had about as many children as I did. Both parents were actors, and about 25 years into their
marriage, the husband came out and went off and lived with a male partner. Back then, that was
totally devastating. Here was somebody who had lived basically a lie and struggled with his own
self-worth around it for all those years. He had kids that were born to him. My hope is that
people don’t have to try to fit into some other kind of costume to live their lives. 	&#13;  
36:52	&#13;  
RB: Right, the more people who can be open and honest from a young age…	&#13;  
36:57	&#13;  
RW: Yeah. 	&#13;  
37:00	&#13;  
RB: Do you think, as far as the role of a parent is concerned, how essential is that?	&#13;  
37:07	&#13;  
RW: I think it’s really essential that parents not only see who their children are, but give them
the space to figure it out for themselves. It was really important for us to not press our kids, and
say “you’re gay! You’re gay!” It’s like, let them figure it out and find their own voice for how
they say that. 	&#13;  
37:36	&#13;  
RB: I guess there’s kind of a different path for everyone. You’ve seen your kids take very
different paths as far as their lives… so what would you say is the most rewarding part for you
about being involved in PFLAG and just being involved in this activism? 	&#13;  

	&#13;  

15	&#13;  

�37:57	&#13;  
RW: Well, I’d have to say [there are] big rewards in terms of just the personal stories. You
know, my son getting married, out in public in front of everybody, in a public place! That’s
something that for a lot of years we didn’t think was going to happen. We have really good
friends, women who were together for 35 years, and one of the partners was suffering with
dementia. When it became legal in Virginia to get married, they went ahead and got married. It’s
only been a year or so, and that partner has now died, but it meant so much to my friend who’s
still living to be able to sanctify that union. Both those ladies I think were brought up Catholic,
and to be able to really come fully out and say “we have a right to be who we are, we love each
other” in front of everybody and God. I’m sure the Catholic Church didn’t sanctify their
wedding, but they had two lady ministers who were there who did that right here in Floyd, so
yeah. 	&#13;  
39:34	&#13;  
RB: That’s amazing! So would you say that gay marriage ruling really kind of changed the
environment around…?	&#13;  
39:43	&#13;  
RW: Yes, I think it did. And I think it just kind of speeds up that snowball of everything that’s
been trying to happen since the abolition of slavery really. It’s just kind of speeding things up to
where we’re going to be really seeing all people with all differences as more and more the same.
We’re all the same, you know? We all have that spark that goes beyond time, all of us have it.
We’re all worthy. 	&#13;  
40:18	&#13;  
RB: Absolutely. So, kind of going off your point about gay marriage relating to accepting all
differences, going in that direction, is that a part of your activism as well? 	&#13;  
40:41	&#13;  
RW: I’m not sure about that question, can you say that in a different way?	&#13;  
40:45	&#13;  
RB: Yeah, sorry. So you mentioned the importance of the gay marriage ruling and then how that
signifies a move in the direction of accepting a lot of differences like the trans community, race
differences, is that something that you would connect with your LGBT activism?	&#13;  
41:07	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, and I think, for me, that is also at the root of what I think we’re supposed to be here
spiritually [for], to not only recognize that we’re all more the same than we are different, but that
we also don’t have dominion over the planet any more than we don’t have dominion over each
other. I must say it’s a discouraging time to live in in that regard, because I think there are a lot
of people still blundering around thinking…. old white guys who think they’re in charge of the

	&#13;  

16	&#13;  

�world and in charge of exploiting it for their own greed. But, I think, the more of us little people
who recognize that we’re the same and everybody should be treated with the same respect, then
the closer we get to making that shift. 	&#13;  
42:27	&#13;  
RB: Yeah, for better. So kind of taking this full circle, you grew up in the ‘60s, that was this
huge time of social progress and growth, and a lot was happening. What are some changes that
you’ve seen over time? Do you think it’s been kind of a straight line [of progress], have there
been a lot of snags? You mentioned at the beginning of the interview that you felt like back then
there was some more freedom that children had to explore themselves and their identities, can
you elaborate on that?	&#13;  
43:01	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, well I think kids were playing outside, they were playing outside most all the time
that they could. Even in urban areas, kids were allowed to play on the street, and now there’s
such a fear of who’s in the neighborhood. It might be a predator, and kids are very closely
guarded and kind of overprotected, which we [gestures at her partner] were just talking about this
the other day. If you’re free to roam in the woods around your house or just in your
neighborhood, you learn things experientially that you can’t get from a parent telling you about
them or a teacher telling you about them. You learn by trial and error how to cross the brook or
how to get from here to there without getting lost. A lot of that experiential knowledge is not
accessible to kids right now, and I think that that helps them to know who they are and to feel
empowered about their own world. So I feel sorry about that. 	&#13;  
44:24	&#13;  
RB: Yeah, it’s strange how that seems to have just had a complete flip. Would you say that now
there’s a lot of pressure for kids to…they’re pressed into these identities of “you’re gay, or
you’re bi” and there’s not…?	&#13;  
44:43	&#13;  
RW: I don’t know if anyone is pressing kids into those identities. I would think that…I don’t
think socially people are…it’s not like there are recruiters out there. 	&#13;  
45:02	&#13;  
RB: [laughs] right, no recruiters for the gay community….	&#13;  
45:05	&#13;  
RW: I mean, there are people who will exploit young men and young women, you know. Young
teens, if they run away people will exploit them. Some people might say, “well, that’s a
recruitment.” If they’re selling a boy on the street for sex, but if a person has their own ability to
make up their mind how they use their bodies I think they’re going to figure out who they’re
attracted to. And I suspect that a lot more people are just going to be like…they are attracted to
the person and the spirit of the person regardless of what their sex is. I think that’s going to be
	&#13;  

17	&#13;  

�more and more the case. I do think that there are people who are born in the wrong body, and I’m
glad for all of the incredibly hard work that’s been done around that. The pioneers who were
trying to change that… God, what was that movie? The Danish Girl… have you seen that?	&#13;  
46:20	&#13;  
RB: I’ve heard of it, I haven’t seen it though. 	&#13;  
46:23	&#13;  
RW: Yeah. That’s some pretty rough old history right there. Even when my friend back in the
early ‘90s was going through it, it was pretty rough. It’s a lot safer today to do those kinds of
surgeries and those kinds of transitions. 	&#13;  
46:46	&#13;  
RB: Does PFLAG do a lot of work with the trans community in Floyd?	&#13;  
46:55	&#13;  
RW: Yeah, I think that’s one of the things that Jim has had the wherewithal to do. He’s brought
speakers, international trans folks have been here and the people in PFLAG feel free to talk
about how they can support somebody they know is transitioning. So, I don’t know where that
leaves the general population of Floyd. I mean, these are people [PFLAG supporters] who are
kind of ready to look at that and do that work. I don’t think it necessarily helps the people who
are resistant. 	&#13;  
47:49	&#13;  
RB: Yeah, and there are certainly those people out there. Do you think as far as the topic of
transitioning and being transgender… is that harder for parents to understand, do you think, than
being gay or lesbian currently?	&#13;  
48:08	&#13;  
RW: I think it is harder to understand. I think there are more barriers to accepting that. Certainly
in the age that I grew up, people would just be shaking their heads to think “hey, if you were
born in that body, that’s who you are.” They would not be able to understand that inside you
were somebody else. 	&#13;  
48:40	&#13;  
RB: Right, it was unheard of. 	&#13;  
48:42	&#13;  
RW: Yeah [laughs]	&#13;  
48:43	&#13;  

	&#13;  

18	&#13;  

�RB: That’s definitely… that’s something that I feel like has really picked up in the last ten years
or so. 	&#13;  
48:49	&#13;  
RW: So now, I think feelings in general are being talked about more. So even if you can’t be
totally genuine about what your… if you were to say to your parents “I’m a girl, I’m a girl” if
you weren’t, what you might be able to say [instead] are all kinds of feelings that may be able to
start to let the message seep in, because feelings in general are more acceptable, they’re more out
on the table. People understand that it’s kind of a right to have feelings! [laughter] 	&#13;  
49:34	&#13;  
RB: Right, luckily people get that! 	&#13;  
49:36	&#13;  
RW: Honest to God, when I was growing up it was like “quit crying or I’ll give you something to
cry about!” Or just these outrageous statements about what you’re feeling. That you don’t have
any right to feel that way. I think feelings are more accepted. 	&#13;  
49:55	&#13;  
RB: Yeah, and that’s definitely important for recognizing people’s identities and respecting
them.	&#13;  
50:01	&#13;  
RW: Mhmmm. 	&#13;  
50:04	&#13;  
RB: Well, I think we’re good. Thank you so much for your time. It was lovely. 	&#13;  
50:12	&#13;  
RW: Thank you! 	&#13;

                    <text>Interviewee: James Atkinson
Interviewer: Claire Hunter
Transcriber: Susan Hensley
CH: I'm sorry, your name again sir was...
JA: Jim's what I go by, no middle name, no middle initial, well, James is given, but in the service you
always have to put something down, so it's either NMI or NMN, no middle name or no middle initial.
CH: I'm Claire Hunter and I'm interviewing Jim Atkinson at the second annual block party on Saturday,
May 20, 2006. Ok, Jim, can you tell us where and when you were born?
JA: I was born at Jefferson Hospital, 1929, July 7th, and my family lived on Maiden Lane, I think at that
time, and then moved in 1930 over to Arlington Road, and I lived there through high school, college,
Army, and the company I was with transferred me quite a bit, but when I retired I came back into the
same house I grew up in.
CH: Really, on Arlington? Ok. Where did you live on Maiden Lane?
JA: I'd have to go back and look. I was less than one, so...
CH: Oh, that'll do it...do you have brothers and sisters that are still around?
JA: I have a brother and a sister; both are dead. My brother just died in April. He was 82. My sister
died about, I think it was '97. She had an operation and caught a staph infection or something in the
hospital, so.... She would be the expert cause she knew a lot more about the area than my brother and I,
after we were gone so much.
CH: Were your parents born here or had they moved here?
JA: No, my father was born in Pocahontas, Virginia.
CH: Where's that?
JA: Tazewell County. That's where the famous Pocahontas Coal Mines are, and his father ran a hotel up
there, and they moved down here when he was still in junior high, I guess you'd call it in my time, and he
later became the Managing Editor to the Roanoke Times. And he had that job for 30 some years. And
he's a graduate of Roanoke College. My mother was born in Troutville, and she worked for the City for a
while, but I don't think she worked after they were married. Well, she worked but not in a paying job.
CH: Now, when you left, how old were you when you left? You said you were transferred with your
job...
JA: Well, I finished high school in '47, Tech in '50 and I was in the Army three years until about '55, and I
came back and I was here a couple years, and then transferred to Richmond and later on, from there, I
went to Winston-Salem and back to the Richmond area. I was in all four of the localities in the
Richmond area.
CH: Who were you working for?
JA: Graybar Electric and they were at 6th and Salem when I first started and Jefferson High is at 6th and
Campbell, so I would just walk two blocks over to Graybar and get a ride home with a guy that was
employed by them. I had to get a Child Labor Permit, cause I was only 15, and, so anyhow, 45 years
later I retired from that same company.
CH: What brought you back?
JA: Well, my mother was in bad shape and she didn't want to leave the house, and my sister was taking
care of her, and Mom was getting a little hard to get along with, and so I just took early retirement and
came back to help out, but she died the day that I was retired, so I wasn't much help.
CH: But you're back here now. What were the changes that you'd seen? Were there big changes when
you came back?
JA: Quite a bit. We used to play all over this area.
CH: Where the church is? This area?

�JA: Well, I'm in the Cradle Roll of the church here. My picture's up on the wall down there somewhere,
unless they've destroyed it, and I was telling somebody, I'm with the class of '47 at Jefferson, and I
handle all the reunions and so forth, and so I borrowed that from them to take it down, and I think we
had something like 7 to 10 people who were in that picture, that were still in Roanoke, went all the way
through Jefferson. And, of course, I went to Wasena. Nell Walters, was my first grade teacher, and Mrs.
Smith was the principal. And you wouldn't recognize the school now from what it was then.
CH: How different was it? What was it like then?
JA: Well, it was much smaller. And we would line up outside and they would ring the bell and we would
march silently into the classrooms, and they also didn't have a cafeteria; didn't have a gymnasium. If
you lived within a mile of the city, you had to go home and eat. And if you lived further than that, you
could bring a bag lunch and they would let you sit with one teacher and a desk and eat. Then the 6th
grade moved to Virginia Heights, but because it was crowded, they took our 6th grade and just put us at
Woodrow in one house. I mean, one room, and so we didn't change when all the bells would ring and
they started changing class, we stayed in the same room the whole time. Ms. Layton was our teacher
that went with us from Wasena. And then I went to Woodrow officially in junior high, and played on the
basketball team over there, and one of the players a year ahead of me was Jimmy Slaughter, who played
All-American at South Carolina. And Louie McClellan was on the team. Charlie Williams...Charlie's had a
stroke recently. And then from there, down to Jefferson and I was on their junior varsity basketball, but
then when I started work, I couldn't do that, so I never went but that half a year, as far as that team was
concerned. And Hump Hurt was the basketball coach. Mr. McNish was the coach over here at
Woodrow and about two years ago, I went up to talk to him with Bill Shrader, who's also from this area,
and he went to Roanoke High School in '23, was his class. His mind was just as sharp as it could be and
he hauled off and named all the players, and so forth.
CH: Wonderful. What kinds of changes have you seen when you come back, outside of....
JA: Well, we had a lot of vacant lots, where we used to play ball. This was vacant over here, the one
across the street where the apartments are, was vacant. Uh, some on Arlington, some on Greenwood.
The City had already bought Shriner's Hill. That was going to be the high school, this was in the 30's, and
they finally built it in '63, something like that. Uh, had the street cards, ran right up and down here.
CH: Oh, you did?
JA: Year, they turned around, didn't turn around, they just reversed in front of Patrick Henry up there,
and that was a big sand box and they would get sand in the brakes.
CH: Where did they run, downtown?
JA: Yeah, they went down across Memorial Bridge, over to, I guess it was Patterson and on down that
way, and big interchange was right there at the corner of Jefferson and Campbell, and uh, in front of
the, why Grandin Road is so wide is, that's where the one coming from up here passed the one coming
from town and that was a double track; and during Halloween, we'd wax the tracks out in front of here
and they couldn't get traction on the thing. And let's see, and I was in Troop 2 here, which was Barney
Haley was the Scout Master. His son's still around town, a retired dentist. He may be able to give you a
lot more information on that.
CH: Have you seen big changes in Grandin Road? Did you used to go the library when it was down
there?
JA: Yes, the little teeny one down there? Yeah, it was used then. The Community Inn was there, but it
was another name. Of course, Grandin Theater was there. The barber shop was there. Bryce's
Drugstore sat there where the alley goes down. The Lutheran Church was sitting right across the alley
on Grandin, and then Kroger's finally came....they moved the houses back into the back of Dr. Kirk's
house and put Kroger, that was the first big supermarket. But at one time, we had about five grocery
stores in that area. And the one across, you know where the fire department is, well, that building there

�was a grocery store. The one of the corner of, let's see, it was North? On the other side, but it was, it
wasn't Maiden Lane, what was the name of the other one. Anyhow, that was one sitting on the corner.
CH: Westover, maybe?
JA: Yeah, it was Westover. And then where the restaurant and all is, that was a grocery store. Then,
the one down on the corner was a grocery store, but the Kroger was the first one you would say was a
supermarket design, and I think Mick or Mack was, I forget when they opened over on the street that
comes down, Brighton, there. Uh, the cemetery was one of our playgrounds. It has a fence around a lot
of it now, but then it was hedges, so you could go in there and play and, of course, it was always in good
shape, and it was nowhere filled up as it is now.
CH: What was your fondest memory, outside of the trolley tracks on Halloween?
JA: Well, I would say probably all of the sports we played out in this area. We had a sandlot team over
here at Woodrow. We had a baseball team and softball during the summer. Recreation Department,
um, and touch football games on the vacant lots all over the place. And, we'd go to Shriner's Hill some,
but it was pretty wooded then, and we'd cut down trees to put backboards on in the backyard and that
kind of stuff, and we camped out over there some, but not much. And um, cause as scouts, we would
go to the various camps that they had. I guess Troop 2 is still here, isn't it? And Dr. Robertson's son was
in my class; John, I saw him at our last reunion; he lives up in Connecticut, somewhere up there. He was
our State Latin Scholar.
CH: You have a wonderful memory.
JA: When I asked him, I said, did you ever use your Latin, he said, "No, I didn't", but he was, what was
that Holiday Magazine, wasn't that a famous one? He was editor of that and then he was with the
Reader's Digest.
CH: What about Arlington? Have you found that's changed a lot?
JA: Well, it's changed quite a bit. When I left, it was mostly, well a lot of people my age, and of course,
as the kids left, the ones that were left were the older folks. My mother was one of them, and Dad too,
and anyhow, they started subdividing the houses, you know, to rent them out to people, and so forth,
and like I say, when I don't know when the trend started, but probably around the early '80's, then the
young people started buying the houses and remodeling them, and um, because of the schools
primarily. And, so it was, Patrick Henry came in later, when did it start, '63, '64, something like that?
Lakewood Colony, the Lake Park, we used to ice skate on that when it would freeze over and...
CH: Now where is that?
JA: As you go down Brandon, in that City Recreation, and I remember we'd buy, of course I had an older
brother and sister, so you got the hand-me-downs on the ice-skates cause it didn't freeze every year, but
if they did buy you one, it was about two sizes too large, so it would last a few years. You wore socks
leading up to it. And, let's see, I don't, uh, I carried papers starting at Grandin Road and Windsor. That's
where I picked them up and I went up Windsor and all the way down Arlington and over on Center Hill.
Center Hill was only that little hump there, and I had Dr. Johnson lived on the road that's now filled up,
and the old Persinger place, so I'd have to go through the field there to get to those two houses, and
one thing I remember is, see I'd be on Brandon for a while, and you'd always, not always, but you'd see
hearses coming through there; apparently that's when they transported the bodies between the
different places. And they were, see it was 11, and they would, if they would see somebody, they'd stop
and ask for directions, but that was, uh, I remember that the hearses all the time; I guess they wanted to
travel at night for reasons, but anyhow. I did that for about three years and the hardest part of
delivering papers is collecting.
CH: Some things probably don't change.
JA: The wife would be at home and she's like 'He's not here now. He'll be here after 5. You'd go back at
5, and then they weren't there and so forth. That was really the hardest part, and I think it was a
quarter for the six days, plus the Sunday paper.

�CH: Now, given that your Dad was so involved with the paper, what were the biggest events you
remember, growing up? Were there really big historical events?
JA: Well, it was WWII, and of course, we had a lot of boys killed from this area. I delivered papers to
about four of the houses that had sons were killed. Uh, and the big news was the war, from '41 on. I
was in the service during the Korean War, but never left the states. And I remember going to the
stadium when it was first dedicated. And the VPI/VMI game was a real big deal then. They would play
on Thanksgiving Day and then all the stores would be open, start their Christmas stuff, and people
would come from all over the place; Southwest Virginia, Richmond, Norfolk and so forth, and of course,
that was the big game and the people from the newspaper in Norfolk and Richmond and Washington all
covered it. And so there was gas rationing and meat rationing and sugar rationing and all that stuff
during the war, but it was never a big hardship, I mean, you could always find something. You couldn't
get tires and you couldn't get gas except the amount that was on the card. The thing that was unusual,
we would go to Jefferson and we would come over to the corner down here, and people would stop and
pick us up. This was back in the days when you thumbed everywhere. I went across the country three
or four times when I was in the service and you wouldn't do it now, but they'd pull up and four or five
would pile in the car and off you'd go and you'd still have ten left and the next car’s pick up some more,
and take them on down, because just about everybody worked downtown then, and so it was no
problem getting a ride to school. When I was at Woodrow, I belonged to that; I don't know what you
call it, that health club, the Fitness Room. Well, and Woodrow has really changed. We didn't have a
gym and we didn't have a cafeteria over there either.
CH: When you say, it's changed, was it primarily the size?
JA: It's the size primarily. Well, and you go over there and there's 50 computers in the place, and we
didn't know how to spell computer then, so.... And, the park was, we had days when we'd go by and pick
up the glass and metal off of the field, cause it was filled in to make it level, you know. And of course, it
worked its way up to the top and that sort of thing. And Raleigh Court football team was very successful
and Virginia Heights, well I never got there, but Norwich was down the hill; that was a pretty rough area
then, so you stayed out of Norwich. And when you got up to about where the English Garden
Apartments are, that was the end of the road and on the field there, at Woodrow, the guy owned
Lakeview Motel and everything, Ingram, was that his name? But anyhow, that was orchards and horses
and stuff like that. And the area over here after the first two blocks of Avenel and the other one that
was farm land. I think Mr. Adams owned that later on. The asphalt paving man. And, let's see, the
Grandin Court area stopped right there too, at what is now, there was no Carlton then, as I recall. One
thing that has always amused me about it is, our phone number is 342-6879 and I think it started out as
789 and all they did is add on because Dad had, was with the newspaper, we had a private line, which
was unusual then and so a lot of the neighbors didn't have phones; they'd come to use the phone, and
oh, I don't recall too much exciting going on. If we played one of the other parks, we'd get there the
best way we could. Our parents didn't take us in the car. We'd go on bicycles or thumb our way over or
something like that.
CH: Are any of the people you talked about, some of the older people on Arlington, are any of them still
there? Are you still in touch with them?
JA: No. I used to kid Mother that people didn't move much then, so the Aldrich house or the Smith
house or whatever, that's the way you referred to it. And I was at a funeral one time and a lady living
down the street in the Aldrich house, and I was telling somebody that she lives in the Aldrich house.
And she said, "I've been here for what, 20 years, and it's still the Aldrich house." That's the way you
referred to all of them then, and I don't think there's a single old timer still alive, cause, see I'm 76, so
they would have had to be 20 years older, and uh, we're getting a few older ones now. I might be the
oldest one on the block, I don't know.
CH: Where are you on Arlington?

�JA: 1855; it's almost dead center. Do you know any people over there?
CH: Not names, but we moved here two years ago and we looked at houses there. My brother lives on
Greenwood so we know the area.
JA: Well, you know where Nat Patterson lives on Greenwood?
CH: Yes.
JA: Ok, well Nat was with me through all of this stuff. And he used to live in the house at the corner of
Grandin and Brandon. That's where he grew up and he had a huge house and we could play basketball
in his attic. His grandmother didn't like it, but anyhow, if you went directly out my backyard, you'd run
into Nat's house on the other side of the street, and that was a corner lot there, at Shirley and
Greenwood. What's the yellow house, pretty nice looking one still. And, let's see, where was the other
one? They didn't have as many. Greenwood was developed before Arlington, and of course, the
development was cause of the streetcar, that's the way, they put the streetcar in and the developers
would come because not many people owned cars then.
CH: What, the streetcar basically went up Memorial and over on Grandin?
JA: Year, it came across Memorial Bridge. That was Virginia Avenue back then, and I think my original
address was 555; it's now 1855. When Roanoke annexed around '47 or '48 the Williamson Road area,
well they had to rename some of the streets cause they had duplicates. I think that South Roanoke had
a Virginia Avenue, see, so that's when it became Memorial, and of course, the bridge was to memorial
the WWI, and the one I like is out in Grandin Court, uh, Livingston Road was originally Stanley.....Stanley
and Livingston. And if the guy, Hildebrand was the City Engineer, and he hired a bunch of the boys from
Tech to go over and start renumbering because the 555 didn't mean anything. Now I'm 18 blocks from
the middle of town, see, so they did all that, I think before 1950, or right around that time. And they left
your last two usually, but instead of the 500 block it was the 18. And let's see, like I said, I left here in
'55, and I was back here for a while and I lived over on Fairway then, and I went to Harrisonburg from
here, and I went to Richmond, and then to Atlanta, and then back to Richmond.
CH: You just kept coming back.
JA: Oh, yeah, see when Mother and Dad were still alive, it wasn't that bad a thing. And when I was
covering the Shenandoah Valley as a salesman, I went all the way up to Front Royal and US 11 was that
famous three-lane thing. And we didn't have the interstates then. I think they may have had part of it
before I left up there in the '60's, but, so that was a thrill. And, you talk about something that's changed
now, go down 11 now and look at all the old places that I used to know are boarded up and closed on
the thing. Around here, I.....Oh, one thing that I would like to ask somebody to tell me, everybody refers
to Woodrow Wilson as Woodrow; they never say Wilson and I wonder why. So I've asked people that
have their high schools as Woodrow Wilson, and they say, no, we call it Woodrow Wilson. And I ask
them, "Do you ever just call it Woodrow?" and they say "No, I don't think so. It's just always Woodrow
Wilson." But anybody that ever went there never called it Wilson. Just Woodrow. And, so I don't know
if we should call Jefferson, I guess Thomas. I've got, I was telling a girl, I had the memorabilia room
down at Jefferson. I helped set that up and we have plenty of good photographs that they may want,
because Jefferson started in '25; that was the first graduating class and we go all the way back through
1896 on Roanoke High School, I think. The first class that graduated from Roanoke High School was all
girls. I think it was twenty some of them. I've tried to ask and find out why and the only thing I've been
able to come up with is boys went to work them and if you were from a rich family, they sent you off to
a private school, so, not a single boy in the graduating class. Wasena Bridge was built in my lifetime.
The other was a wooden structure. Memorial Bridge, part of that was still there. What used to be a
filling station sitting down there, where right before you go across the bridge where Deyerle or Driscoll,
Driscoll, I think it was. And that big stone house that's beautiful, I once knew who built that thing, but
they didn't stay there long. That should be preserved. That's quite a house. Old man Tudor, that
owned Magic City Laundry there, his sister, lived next door to me, and he couldn't read or write. And he

�owned the ice plant and the laundry and everything; he could count money, but he came up from
Franklin County I think, and never went past the 2nd or 3rd grade. And his sister was educated and then
one of his brothers lived there too, in that house.
CH: This has been so interesting. You know what I'm going to ask because I know; I think the group
that's doing this would probably like to come back to you with more questions. Would that be ok?
JA: Yeah.
CH: That would be great because I think that you're just a wealth of information. It would be just....
JA: Like I said, I was around the area, and at that time, you stayed in the area.
CH: Uh-huh. Absolutely, you didn't move around, except it sounds like you moved around.
JA: Well, that was later on, though, and Graybar it's now at 12th Street, the branch here.
CH: That's terrific. Would you mind if I took a picture? Just a quick photo because they've asked us to.
Just take photos of everyone that we can.
JA: I volunteer down at the History Museum quite a bit, just on the desk. Of course, I know George
Kegley really well, everybody does. George worked for my dad for 30 years, I guess. There's Helen
Chewning who is Judge Fitzpatrick's wife. She worked for the newspaper back in the early '40's.
CH: That's terrific. It's interesting how many people; I have a neighbor whose husband works for the
paper now. I think he's in the production end of it, though. But this has been just so helpful, really, and
we're really glad that you came in.
JA: The little girl I was talking to said she's never been to the Memorabilia Room at Jefferson, and I told
her to give me a call some time and I'll take you down there and open it up for you.
CH: I think that's great. You know, I think there's probably all sorts of things like that around, and I think
this is a sort of concerted effort to try and.......
JA: Well, that's where we've got the good pictures because every high school had a photographer
assigned and he had a good camera. As a matter of fact, the one from the class of '46, Simms that just
died, he was the photographer for the class of '46 and he furnished me with a lot of pictures and I just
wonder what his wife's going to do with all of those pictures. She was in my class in '47. Her name is
Virginia. I'll call and ask her.
CH: That would be great to know because I know they're really working on building up the Virginia
Room down at the library and I think they're really....
JA: The Virginia Room needs about three times the size cause it's a real asset to the city. I love going
down there and just looking around.
CH: Well, I've only been here two years, and my husband is really into history. And until I did, I didn't
know about it; I just didn't know about it.
JA: Is your husband involved with Civil War history?
CH: A little bit, yep.
JA: He ought to come to our Civil War roundtable. We have probably 150 members and we have
speakers every month and it's Friendship Manor Recreation Building, and we average 60 to 100 people
attending. And Dr. Robertson, Bud, he talks to us at least every other year. And, as a matter of fact, I'm
going to one of his classes up in Staunton next month. He has a week-long thing that I've been going to
for some time. But if he likes history......Incidentally, I guess it was the Morning Show today, some little
town in Pennsylvania, and the guy asked what's this town famous for, and the guy answered, "We had a
general in the Civil War." And the guy asked "What was his name?" and he said "Anthony Wayne, or
something". That was Revolutionary War. He didn't know it and she didn't either so it didn't make any
difference.
CH: How did you get so interested in the Civil War?
JA: Well, um, I guess I've been interested in it forever. My dad was quite good at history and so I guess I
got it from him, but he wasn't too much into the Civil War, as a matter of fact, when I got in the Sons of
Union Veterans, I found out my ancestors fought for the North, which is not too good, you know. But,

�and by the way, that guy just died, who was heading it up. I don't know what they're going to do now. I
didn't attend that one too regularly, but I sent them money cause I think they had 15 members. Bob Eck
headed the thing up, and I think he must have taught at one of the schools. His wife's a nurse out at
here Brambleton Clinic, but I don't know what's going to happen to that one, but the Sons of Union
Veterans of which I'm not a member of, they are more into griping than they are into history. There's
always something going on that they're trying to correct. Now the guy that heads it up has done a great
job of keeping a lot of the rednecks quiet, and the reenactors, I don't deal with them. They have a lot of
fun, and they're history conscience as far as food and stuff like that, but as far as knowing what the Unit
did or anything like that, they're not too good at it.
CH: Well, it's been wonderful talking to you, Jim. So thanks so much.
JA: Well, I've enjoyed talking to you and if there's anything that you want to pin down, I can, like I say, I
volunteer at the History Museum, and I usually go back and get two or three directories out and try to
verify where people lived and so forth, that kind of stuff. And it's very interesting. I think they go back
to 1890 something. Matter of fact, I found my grandfather. He was living at the, what later on became
Clover Creamery. It was a boarding house and the dairy and so forth, and there's a Knights of Pythias;
it's right there at the corner of Franklin and Jefferson, and they own the building, and they're on the
third floor. And I went down there to follow up on some of the stuff and it's......they're not very active,
but they've got a bundh of stuff that somebody ought to get their hands on and put in the Virginia Room
because all the dignitaries in Roanoke at one time were presidents or chief council or something to that
degree.
CH: Well, thank you very much, Jim.
JA: Did you say you're over on Maiden Lane now?
CH: Yeah. We really appreciate your coming by.
JA: I used to know a bunch of people over there, but it's a new crowd over there now.
CH: It is, but you know, it's interesting that six months after we moved in, a woman knocked on the
door and they were up visiting and she had grown up in the house. So we had this long weekend with
her and actually, I'm going to contact her about this.
JA: One of the ladies that moved in across the street said that that was the Hyman's house and she said
that some girl knocked on her door and said I used to come here and visit my grandmother and she said
she showed her around and while she was digging in the back yard, what do you call it, friendship
bracelets, found one from one of the boys that lived there.
CH: Thank you, Jim.
JA: Ok.

You could sa~that I've lived in this neighborhood long time, if you includeVa. Heights,Raleigh
a
Court, andGrandmCourt.
I grew up in Va. Heights-the
first 18yearsin the samehouse,2046
Westover
Ave. Thus my first story:
.B~fore the Morris Apts. werebuilt. my address 614Northumberland
was
Ave., then, after they were
bUIlt. It changed 646 Northumberland
to
Ave. The city renumbered
blocks startingfrom Jefferson for
St.
East-West SalemAve. for North- Southstreets. now I lived at 2046Northumberland
and
so
Ave. (I'd go
to the bottomof the hill and look ~ over GrandinRoadat WestoverAve,,!)The City soonchanged
the
namefrom Northumberland Westover
to
Ave. Thus I thenlived at 2046 Westover
Ave., my 4thaddress
withoutmoving!
As a 1itt1e just big enough 1eave sightof my house.T'dgo up and aroundthe cornerof
boy
to
the
BrunswickandNorthumberlandand sit on the wall nextto the sidewalk.and look at the backporchof
the nouseacross street.I believea Mrs. Stevens
the
lived there,and shekept a Parroton the latticed
porch.I'd talk with the Parrot.althoughI don't remember sayingmorethanjust words or noises.
him
I left my Northumberland
Ave. homeat the endof' 44 during WW two andwas in the Navy for 2
years.then spent next 4 yearsat Va. Tech.We (I wasnow married)returnedto Roanokeon Laburnum
the
Ave (RaleighCourt)in 1950.We movedto Memorial Ave .thento LivingstonRd.(in GrandinCourt)and
finally to Mount VernonRd. (backin RaleighCourt)wherewe still live.
So I've been"HERE" for 74years!I've seen lot of changes,but really somuch.
a
not
GrandinVillage is a big thng now. As I remember

                    <text>Interviewee: Gloria Jean Coan
Interviewer: Michael Blankenship
Transcriber: Andrew Sterling
MB: My name is Michael Blankenship and today I'm interviewing Gloria Jean Coan. Is that the
correct way to pronounce it?
GC: Yes, Coan, C-o-a-n.
MB: This is September 30th, and we are doing this interview at the Roanoke Public Library. Is it Mrs.
Coan or Miss?
GC: Let's just say Miss, OK?
MB: Miss, OK. Miss Coan, where were you born and when were you born?
GC: I was born in Roanoke at the Berrill Hospital. Berrill Hospital at the time was the only place that
an African-American could go. Roanoke Memorial was there and it was smaller but they didn't allow
any African-Americans at Roanoke Memorial.
MB: When were you born if you don't mind us asking?
GC: I was born in 1950.
MB: How long have you lived in Gainsboro?
GC: Well, Gainsboro was sort of like – even if you didn't live in that area, it was the section where
everything went on, you see. But, I went to junior high school and it was named Booker T. Washington
Junior High School. Its still there but its an administration building now. But that was a junior high
school then. And its one of the oldest buildings. I know that it was named after Booker T. Washington
and it had a graveyard in back of it. The graveyard was really something because a lot of sunken
graves were in that area at the time. So I think when Lincoln Terrace and all of that area was built over
graves of – I don't know whether they were Black-American graves or White graves or what but they
were built over graves. And another place that was of interest was the Black YWCA and that was the
best thing - That was one of the Meccas there because it was a little marvel for black kids to go and
they could do things and they would learn 'em things, things that happened overnight like I went over
there and had those things where you stay overnight, you know. And it was really cool and so – Down
the street a bit, that's where you would find the library that was the Gainsboro Library. At the time, that
was the only library blacks could go to. We weren't allowed at this one. And so everybody would go to
that particular library not wanting any trouble, you see. 'Cause they wouldn't allow them in that library.
In fact, they wouldn't allow us in certain schools like Jefferson. Now, Flemming hadn't been built but I
think they just had Jefferson then because that was the white school and so Addison, which was built
for black people. Now this was the only school that wasn't a hand-me-down school. Loudon was a
hand-me-down school. When the whites moved out, the blacks would move in and that school was not,
you know – and they would give us their old books, you see. These old books and their old tables that
we would sit at. And often, we were really mad because these tables had things that was written on 'em
and scratched on 'em. They were nasty, had gums on back – The books were all scratched up and you
couldn't half read 'em but that's the only books that we had, you see. So, I think it made me kind of
angry. It made a lot of people angry. We wanted one school that was totally black built and new. So
my mom was telling me that the whole community would get together and they would bake pies, they
would sell everything they had, yard sales and everything, to get the government to go half in what they
could raise to build Addison School. It was the Mecca of the black community as for schools and they
had the Addison Bulldogs. That was our team and I'll never forget the team. I always would wear a
bulldog tag on my shirt because I loved them. They were so good. Now the black team had all the best
black players and the white teams didn't. So, the thing about it – when they would come up against the
Bulldogs, the Bulldogs would mow them down. You see what I mean? Because they had all the best
black players. And the white – it was the white coaches who really pushed for integration because they
wanted those players. They wanted those players bad. So when they had the civil rights movement,

�them coaches were right in front, “We want those players”. (laughing) And so when they built
Flemming, that was the only totally integrated school. Then the white coaches got those black players.
They did everything to get them in Flemming but a lot of them wanted to stay with the Addison
Bulldogs because then when they got the black football players, that's when they really started winning.
I remember like we would go downtown, I think that the Jefferson Theater – That was a theater that
they wouldn't let blacks in so we had our own theater called the Virginia Theater. You might remember
it. Now the Virginia Theater was really cool. It had all the things that we would want to go to and
everything like that. But the Mecca really was the Dumas Hotel and Fats Domino and they came to the
Crystal Towers one time and I remember people were talking when big Fats Domino came there. He
was it! When they had him at the Dumas, I think the blacks were in control of that 'cause Fats, he
didn't want to play at any white place, “The only place I will play is at an integrated place”. This man
had – everybody loved him, white and black wanted Fats. So he went into the Dumas Hotel, so they
made a deal, they said the whites could go there on the rope part but the blacks would be there. You
know what I mean? (laughing) But they would not allow them – The blacks would not allow them to
sit in the chairs to watch Fats Domino because that's the way they did them over the years so they
wanted to get back at them so they made them do that rope thing like they'd been doing them. And
when that Fats Domino showed up, it was just like the sky rounding up (??). That's what my momma
said. And that mad could sing and the whole town would buzz about that man even years and years
later that he came. And another one who came was Cab Calloway. (laughing) The Cab was good, you
know! I mean, everybody loved that man but either – you wouldn't understand if you wasn't there. But
when Cab Calloway came to the Dumas, oh, it looked like the world had come apart because that man
was the best singer and mmm that New York or any place had produced. And he was a really good
entertainer. So when Cab came there, he went to Dumas. He said he would not play for a segregated
audience. It had to be integrated, the same thing that Fats said. And so all those whites wanted to be in
there, they just took, when he came there they was gonna mob Henry Street because they were going to
see him, you know, Cab Calloway, ain't no way they gonna keep them out there. (laughing) The
Dumas said, alright, you let 'em in, we'll integrate this thing and we gonna sing and you gonna hear
Cab. And Cab he went – Oh, Lord, he went on all night. Now my mom seen this, she was there. And
she said that was the biggest thing in the world when Cab Calloway came to Roanoke. Now these
some of the things that mom had said to me. Because, it was something. I remember going on Henry
Street as a girl. It wasn't bad then. You had hot dogs and you could go to the Virginia Theater. But
beyond that point, that was it. Nobody went beyond that point because they know if they go downtown
to Jefferson, they wasn't gonna let you in unless it was in the balcony. And a lot of 'em said, “I'm not
sitting in that balcony. Either you let me in or you don't”. But we got all the best pictures at the
Virginia Theater. And it was the Mecca. And they had barber shops, a lot of good businesses there and
a matter of fact, the railroad used to come through there. The railroad used to come through Roanoke
and they had the passengers would get out around about Henry Street, you know, that's where we'd get
out and a lot of times the soldiers, there were a lot of black soldiers that would get out there too and
they'd come right on up there to Henry Street and they would spend gallons of money. So, because all
that money those soldiers spent on Henry Street, it was the most popular street there was. And there
was nothing the white people could do about it because that was the established Gainsboro area. And
so I think when those passenger trains stopped coming, that's when Henry Street fell off a little bit.
And then, I think the town leaders at the time, they were Dr. Claytor. Dr. Claytor was the only town
black physician and he set the standards for everybody and his family was the greatest family there
was. Everybody loved them, you know. Then there was the – I think he's dead, I'm not sure, but the
funeral home – What's the name of that funeral home? (mumbled)
0.10.52.9
MB: The Phizer?
GC: No. (pause) I don't know how it escaped my mind. But anyway, that funeral home -

�MB: Williams?
GC: William Memorial? No, William Memorial was there though. It wasn't that one it was the other
one. All my people buried there. But anyway, William Memorial did play a part but all the elite, the
lawyers, the doctors and everyone when the time would come and all of the stuff was over with, they
came and integrated Woolworths because they wasn't allowed to sit. They would take their dollars now
but they weren't allowed to sit in the section where you eat at. So when the big ones showed up, I don't
think no police would dare arrest them because they knew that these people were so ingrained in the
black community they thought that there would be a riot if they touched them. So, they ate and they
ordered things and then when they got through, everybody was eligible to eat at those lunch counters.
And then that Mayor Taylor came along and he was the sole – Whatcha call it? – He had such
charisma, you know. That man had so much charisma. And he became mayor about around that time.
Like when all this stuff was going on, I remember sitting at the little TV set – you know the television
used to be black and white – and all the news would have those things on - stuff like “The Eye On The
Prize” - but when I was a kid, I was looking at it first hand, you know, not second hand – and it kind of
scared me. It scared me so bad that I used to not want to walk to school. See, I had to walk all the way
from Hanover maybe 5 or 6 blocks to get to Booker T. because they didn't have school buses for us.
0.12.58.2
MB: Did you grow up on Hanover?
GC: Yeah, I grew up on the 1000 block of Hanover. That little house there – It was an all black
neighborhood but they did have white people there, you know. But the thing about it is, it was
Lakeside. Lakeside was a segregated place when I was growing up. Can you imagine a kid wanting to
go to a little amusement park and they wouldn't let you? So I guess the white kids on the block would
go to the amusement park like Lakeside and they'd come back and tease us, right? So my brother
would just beat 'em up. (laughing) There'd be a big fight. And my mom said, “Well if you're gonna
throw the stuff in their face, what you think they gonna do to you?”. So, the fights stopped and
everything. But at the time, it was segregated. But the first time it became integrated, they started
integrating Lakeside and my mother got a job there. 'Cause my mother worked at Lakeside, my brother
worked at Lakeside and all these people worked at Lakeside, we could go in and ride free. So the thing
that was formerly segregated then, it was just like a Mecca. But the thing about it is, what made
Lakeside Park was a big swimming pool. So rather than - they had the biggest swimming pool almost
in the South. But rather than let those blacks and whites swim together, they took and cemented the
whole swimming pool over, you see. But it was really good.
0.14.26.5
MB: You mentioned your brother, how many brothers and sisters did you have?
GC: I had 1 sister and 2 brothers. One brother is deceased and the other one became a Marine. And he
spent 20 years in the Marines as a drill sargent. Then he went to school to become a teacher. Now he
teaches some kind of history. He teaches History, Government and things like that. And my sister-inlaw teaches, she's a drill sargent. And their kid is now in the – April, my niece, she's now a Marine
Lieutenant. And I guess maybe she'll go to Iraq, I don't know. But she's got a job in the accounting
department and she trained at Quantico, Virginia.
MB: Who were your parents?
GC: Lily Mae Coan. She used to work on Henry Street and when – That's before she got married and
my daddy was in the Army. He stayed in the Army like 2 years and then he came back and I think
that's when she had Carolyn and she had Carolyn at Berrill because she was the oldest but no baby was
ever born at these other hospitals. I think when I had my child Angela, it was at Roanoke Memorial.
Everything had changed then. And so it was really something.
MB: Did you have any other family members that lived nearby?
GC: Hmmm. No, I didn't have any family members that lived nearby but I had – We had moved – My
parents had moved to Roanoke – My mom was in – She moved to Roanoke from North Carolina. She

�lived in Durham. She was born in Durham. Her mother was a Native American Indian and her father
was named Charles Austin. He was a contractor. I think my mom came from a very wealthy family
because – I don't know whether to say this but – Anyway, her great-grandfather, Scriro (??) was the
master's son and in his old age, he took care of him. And because of that, he left him so much land that
he was considered very wealthy. He left him the land and just about everything that he could leave him
except the house. And so he owned everything down there and he became a very valuable contractor
and when they built Duke University, he was the one that built it. He did the architect work on it.
0.17.29.1
MB: And what was his name?
GC: His name was Scriro, Scriro Austin. And so he did all the contracting work in that area so he was
very wealthy. So my mom came from a considerably wealthy family but her mother was an Indian, a
Native American Indian. But when he died, Charlie Austin who was the great-grandson of Scriro and
was a contractor, he became an alcoholic. He couldn't take it, you see. And that's when the family
went downhill. But my cousins down there, they're still very wealthy people because of Scriro. But
I've been there and I've visited and they have beautiful homes and things like that in the country. One
of my cousins, Frank, he had a big old farm down there. It was something. But my daddy came from
West Virginia. I went into the Virginia Room and I traced his family back to 1850. They were named
Susan and Robert Woutin (??). I think Woutin (??) is a Native American name. But there was probably
some Native American on my father's side too. OK, I'm getting off the track here. (laughing) Anyway,
they decided on Roanoke 'cause she didn't want to live in North Carolina anymore and he didn't want to
live in West Virginia or any of those places, Ridgeway, or wherever he came from. So they moved to
Roanoke and that was about 1947, right after the war, World War II. And so, that's where I grew up
from 1950 when I was born here. But when I was born here in Roanoke, you know, it seems like I
went through a normal childhood but my parents, they were the first one to own a TV on the block. It
used to be radio. I think radio, when they had John, you know - what was his name? - Joe Lewis. Joe
Lewis wasn't born in that time but my mother said he had an uncle who was in World War I and in
World War I, my uncle, he was a veteran, he was a doctor and he worked in – he was a medic during
World War I. He operated on patients and everything during World War I. So he was a doctor. But he
had cracked up during the war and became kind of – What do they call that name? - Shell shocked!
And he had a great big beautiful car.

[Interruption by Alicia Sell with discussion about taking a picture.]
MB: If you could tell me about the house you grew up in. What sort of house was it?
GC: It was a two story house on Hanover and it was yellow and we had a big backyard.
MB: Did you have a garden?
GC: No, my mother wasn't into gardening at that time. But the thing about it is, we lived on Loudon,
they did have a garden there in one big house. The house is torn down now but it had grapes and all
that kind of stuff and my mom did a lot of canning. She knew how to do that old type of canning that
would last a long time and stuff like that. And they said the house was haunted. It was really funny.
(laughing) But MG: Why did they say it was haunted?
GC: Because it used to be a white person used to live there, a white family, and they said that the man
had cracked up and killed the whole family or something. And then nobody would rent the house, you
see. So my mom liked the house so much she said, she used to go, she talks to 'em everyday but she
said she would rent the house. And so when we went into the house, you know, things, strange things
did happen there. And one time, you know it would rain, it was raining all the way and my daddy was
in the house. At the time, he always kept a gun up under the bed, under the pillow, and my mother
didn't like that idea but she said you have to. So, when it was raining real hard and then somebody
banged on the door real hard and so he went down there and he opened the door and he said it was a

�white man who was drenched and he said that, he said the “N” word. He said, “'N', get out of my
house. This is my house and I don't want you living in it”. Or something like that. And he said, “OK”.
And then he shut the door. “You stay here”, he said. And then he went upstairs and got the gun with
the intention to shoot the man but by the time he came down real quickly, he was running, the man had
disappeared. And so he told the landlord and the landlord said, “Well you know, I told you the house
had ghosts and you signed a contract so you got to stay there anyway”. So we stayed there a year and
all kinds of strange things. So my mom invited some guests to stay there overnight and so they stayed
there overnight and then when she went to, when everybody went to bed, they said, the woman said,
“Let that child”, she was talking to me, I was a child at the time, said, “Let that little baby girl sleep
with me because they say if you have a child with you, the ghost won't bother you”. So, it was raining
again and it was soaking and everything, the ground was soaked. And then, all of a sudden, there came
a banging hammering on the door and the lady went down to the door to see who it was, right? And
then all of a sudden, the door, you know, they seen the white people at the door, saying, “We're gonna
get you. We're gonna lynch you”. And stuff like that. And by the time she ran back upstairs to get the
gun, they were gone and then she had a nervous breakdown and her and her husband ran out in the
middle of the night in all that rain and they would not come back.
MB: That's really interesting. What kind of work did your parents do?
GC: My daddy worked for the city. He was a, you know, where they collect garbage. But a garbage
collector then when everything was segregated, it was the biggest job in town because you couldn't do
anything. (laughing) You had to be limited. You had people who did things in their house like some
people had a house where you go for food. So when the men come off the work, they would fix the
food for the men and they ate the food, you know. Everybody did their own thing. Like on Henry
Street, they did the little restaurants but everybody had their own little illegal thing. Like they had one
man who would clean up other people's houses for a certain amount of money. And one black man
would do this and one black man would do that. But at that time, they patronized their own people
'cause they knew they couldn't get jobs anywhere else. So in the community, they had their own jobs.
They patronized everybody and they wouldn't hire a white person. But if you had to move, we had a
certain person who did the moving. So they patronized that black person who did the moving. If a
person, a black person was selling ice cream, they patronized that black person selling ice cream. And
by patronizing their own people, it was guaranteed that everybody had a way to make a living.
0.25.44.9
MB: What sort of work have you done throughout your life?
GC: Well, I think - I like to write plays. Of course, none of them have sold right now but I'm still
working on that. I'm writing a book. I've got to do it over for Doubleday because they want it done
properly. And I worked at Bailey's Cafeteria for a while and I liked that. _______ (??) and S&amp;W. I
worked at S&amp;W. Then, I went to Richmond during the depression, got me a job at Hot Shots. But I did
mostly food work. I worked at Crystal Towers for a while as a maid too. And so, I've worked at a lot
of places. But mostly just food service work. I couldn't name 'em all.
MB: What's the book about that you're writing?
GC: Its about living in Roanoke and growing up – you know, the African-American myths that you
hear. The myths that people tell ya. It used to oral. They never wrote it down. There are a lot of
myths that people tell that they never write down and I remember all those little tales they told me but
they never wrote down so I just said, “I'll write it down in a book”. Because people – you know before
television, before radio and all that stuff, you had very little entertainment and so stories were the thing
and every time you ask a person for a story, you give them a little something and they'll give you a
story. (laughing) Right in my neighborhood. So, like a man once told me a story. He said - This one
black guy said, “I'll tell you a story but steal one of your dad's cigarettes and give it to me”. So, I stole
one of my dad's cigarettes and gave it to him. That was really bad and my dad caught me doing that.
And he would tell me stories about things. He told me a story about this guy named Hog John that

�started the Soul Food craze. I said, “How'd he do that?”. But I go on in the book to explain it. And
then he would tell like you go to the lady up the street. Those people were really hungry some of 'em
and they ask you to bring some ham biscuits so I brought 'em some ham biscuits and they'd tell me a
story. Stuff like that. And then it got to the point when they were just begging to tell stories and my
mom told stories at night. Everybody would tell you a story because that was the thing. It was very
little entertainment back in those days.
0.28.17.7
MB: That's wonderful. Tell me about you school life. Like, where did you attend school? Did you
have to walk to school?
GC: Everybody walked to school. They didn't have any school buses I think. I walked to Loudon
School. That was my first school and they didn't have any school buses. I walked 5 or 6 blocks to
school but nobody even considered kidnapping then because it was an all black neighborhood. When
you walked, you walked past everybody had little shops and things, you know, the barber shop. You
just walked past everybody and they would holler. People would be on their porch anyway so you
weren't scared of nothing. And I walked all the way to Loudon School about 5 or 6 blocks. We had a
1st grade teacher and you went there until the 5th grade right there. I never, ever caught a school bus. I
don't remember why. I don't even think they had 'em. A school bus back then was low priority for
black kids – everything local. Just like Forest Park, you just had to do something in that area. And so
the teachers though – they were – I think most of those teachers didn't have a college education because
then, if you finished the 9th grade, you was a teacher. You see what I mean? Or if you finished school,
you was a teacher. I think if you had an Associate's Degree you were a teacher. But the white people,
their teachers did finish college. That's why we were behind and I didn't know that we were behind, I
was that behind. You see what I mean? But that was why. And a lot of people don't want to admit it
and a lot of teachers – but those teachers were very old and everything. One teacher that I really
remember was Eunice Poindexter. She taught my daddy when he was in Ridgeway and she was telling
me that I would appreciate the school lunch program because she said when she was young and my
daddy was going to school that they didn't have school lunches. The parents had to bake cakes and
stuff and bring it to the school so when the kids come, they would have a lunch, you see. And that's
when he was in Ridgeway, Virginia. And then, he graduated from Addison as a mechanic, my dad did.
He was one of like the first graduates there. Later on, they gave him a job at the post office because he
was in World War II. And also, 0.31.04.0
MB: After the 5th grade, what school did you go to?
GC: Harrison! That's where we have that museum now. Harrison was the only school that you could
go to. It was like – It was all black. At the time, they had the hand-me-down books but I think
Harrison used to be a white school and so was Loudon. But when we moved in, they moved out and
they gave us their old stuff. And so from there it was Booker T. And at Booker T. Washington, that's
when I started walking to the Gainsboro library. I had to go everyday. All us kids we went to that
library. That was everything to us. Back then, that black library was everything. You feel depressed
because you weren't part of the regular life. You were in a world of your own. You couldn't go
anywhere. Everything was segregated back then. You were so much in a black world that when you
seen somebody white, you wondered, “What is that?”. I didn't see anybody white. The only time I saw
a white person was the insurance man. You see what I mean? And I used to stare at that guy and he
said, “Why are you staring at me?”. “'Cause I never seen nobody like you.” (laughing) That's the way
it was. You'd never see 'em. Everything was black. Everywhere it was black. Every person you
would meet was black. You didn't really see any white people because they were in their section there.
MB: Do you remember Virginia Widely at Gainsboro?
GC: Yes! There was a lady there and she had white hair. She was old then. I used to go there and this
is the experience that I had. They had a little section back there and they kept it locked. I asked her,

�“Why do you keep that locked? I want to see what's in there.” She said, “Well, I'll show you what's in
there if your parents agree. I think its time people know what's going on in this world. We got to keep
things hid from you. I think you're old enough.”. I was in Booker T. I didn't know. She said, “Ask
your momma, 'Can I see that private stuff?'”. And I asked my mom. And she said, “She can do it. She
can do it. You can do it. You can go and see what's in there.” So I went there and she unlocked the
door and there were books in there that I'd never seen. There were very old books. These were her
private collection books. She collected those books on her own. And so when I went back there and I
looked in those books, I seen, what I seen almost drove me to tears. I seen the pictures of them
lynching black people and the white people were looking around like they were smiling and having
picnic lunches. When I went, I saw picture after picture and I think I started crying. I think I started
feeling, “This is hate. How can I deal with 'em if they hate us that much?” To do this. I think I had a
nervous breakdown after I'd seen all those books. And then I just cried. I just kept on crying. The
tears would come out of my eyes and then at the time, I think, they were electing John F. Kennedy so I
went up there home and I cut on the TV and I see John F. Kennedy and I said, “He's gonna stop this.
He's gonna stop this”. And my daddy said, “John F. Kennedy, you see that man, he's gonna stop
everything”. He was a senator then. He said, “He's a prince. He's a prince amongst people. That's
where some of our hope lies is right with him.” And so he came through Roanoke as the senator and
when my daddy got there, he put me on his shoulders. He said, “This man is a great man and you
should see him”. And John F. Kennedy walked through there and he said a few words about Nixon and
then he walked back and he had this orange hair and freckles and I seen him and I never forgot it 'cause
I knew this man was a great man. Somewhere inside, I knew he was. That he was going to change all
this stuff. And then I seen Martin Luther King on TV too and I heard his speeches and all his stuff and
the dogs being put on people and stuff like that. I said, “Somewhere, this is gonna change.
Something's gonna change”. And it did. It did about in the '60s when he got assassinated. That hurt
me so bad. I thought the whole world was gonna come to an end 'cause I'd seen it in Dallas. And they
had all this stuff in the paper. And I was like in high school, junior high or something like that. I liked
to cry myself to death. And then I remember a teacher came into the room. Her name was Miss
Cooper. She was a very old teacher and she was a history teacher and she came into the room and she
said, “This is something, a great moment in time.” And she said that John F. Kennedy had been
assassinated. And everybody started crying. Everybody started crying. The teachers were crying and I
remember walking home that day after being told that John F. Kennedy had died and this was the man
that I seen and he was a great man to me. To me, he was the man, you know, who was everything and
then I walked home and I said, the dream is going to be over. Its all its going to be? Its gotta change.
And so, when I walked home, I was crying, my mother was crying, my father was crying. And so
many tears were shed for that man because the whole world to them he was everything. His wife was
so sweet. She was like, she wasn't a dull woman. She was so exciting. She had this beautiful air about
her, you know what I mean? And it was like Camelot. You see what I mean? He was like King
Arthur and the Round Table. He was justice, he was gonna be like total justice to us. And now, King
Arthur was gone. And we thought at the time, everybody thought it was the end of justice. Camelot
was gone. The beauty that could be was gone. And he was a beautiful man inside I thought. And so,
then we had Martin Luther King and we listened to his speeches and they put him in jail and stuff like
that. And then, when I went to high school, I was in high school then, they had assassinated Martin
Luther King and the whole school rose up and they were rioting in the schools. That was our school,
see? I don't see how they would riot in our own school. But they was rioting in the school, throwing
their books on the ground, you know? And they would sit down and weep on the ground. The students
were so unhappy. And the teachers were unhappy. They didn't even try to stop the students from
rioting. Everybody was throwing their books down. And they were crying, throwing their hands up.
“He's gone! They killed him!” And everybody was so sad. And then so then the teachers, to keep the
kids from rioting any more, they said, “Y'all go on home, just go home”. (laughing) “We're upset too.

�Everybody's upset. Y'all go home early today”. And we went home and I remember seeing it on TV
and my parents were crying, everybody was crying, just weeping all in the neighborhood. I didn't think
anybody would ever get over it. I know I never did. When you hear him speak, it was not like just
anybody speaking. It was like he would pull you into his self. He had the way when he spoke,
everybody who listened to him was pulled into him like an aura. He could pull people into himself. He
could make them feel what he felt. He had this thing called empathy and that empathy was so strong
that people felt like he was a prophet that had come from God. I felt like that too. He was a God-like
man. And when he died, it was like a something was missing that would never be there again. Mmm
(sigh)

MB: You were talking about your school before. Were you ever allowed to stay home from school?
GC: No. You know my mother, she didn't have the opportunity to go to school because of her mother
dying so early. So to my parents, school was everything that led to advancement. Missing school and
making poor grades was like giving up their dream. They had to work. To get through school, they
had to go through so much and here we was, able to just go right to school. They couldn't see it. They
couldn't conceive of us not wanting to go, what they worked so hard to do. Like Miss Lucy Addison
who the school was named for, she had to take a ferry boat and go down the river. My mom would say,
“Look at Miss Lucy Addison, Do you think she - you walk right into that school, right into that
classroom and you've got that privilege that Miss Lucy Addison had to go on a ferry boat about 20
miles. They didn't walk 20 miles to get to school”. She said, “All those people back there and all those
slaves, you are their hope, you are their dream. Don't let them down. Don't fail them”. You see what I
mean? And that's what the teachers would say to us. She said, “You are the hope of the slaves. They
never got to do this thing. They died and you are their dream. You are the future”.
0.42.09.1
MB: How far did you go with school?
GC: 12th.
MB: Did anyone in your family ever attend college?
GC: My brother. My sister, she went to nursing school. But my brother – and I went to school some.
But, it wasn't the same. I wanted to go to an all-black school but MB: Well, I was just wondering, like in the evenings at your home, did y'all sit around on the porch in
the evenings and talk or -?
GC: Oh yeah. We were really porch people. (laughing) You know, back then I think, there was very
little entertainment. They had radio, TV, it was black and white and everything on the TV was
depressing. But they had all these white programs like Father Knows Best. And these white folks –
everybody was white and it was like we didn't exist. You see what I mean? Everything was white. I
think we looked at Amos and Andy and that was really amusing. (laughing) But everything else was
just white until you look at the reruns of Amos and Andy and it was like looking at a family of people
outside yourself. And I said, what is it? Who are these people and why is there not somebody like me
on there 'cause I'm part of this America too and so to me I stopped looking at the TV until Star Trek
come on. And Star Trek was different. It opened up a whole new world of probabilities. Here they
had these characters like, you know, these different people from different galaxies and stuff like that.
And they let you open up a world where you could be just like these people from different galaxies and
they all came together. You see what I mean? I mean everybody was Star Trek, everybody was
futuristic then and I think that show opened up so much possibilities and so much probabilities that – I
think its one of the things that really broke racism was Star Trek.
0.44.28.0
MB: Well, I was just wondering if there were any family stories in your family that got passed down
from generation to generation?
GC: Oh yeah, it was about how we got to Roanoke. I asked my mom and I don't think it was the truth

�but I asked her, “How did we end up in Roanoke?” And she said, “Well, I'll tell you the story”. She
said, “Well, you know my grandmother was a real, real dark woman and she always say, “My gracious
to life” and she was jet-black and one day she went to this white person's house and she had done her
laundry and she didn't want to pay her the money. So she took the laundry and she through it on the
ground and then the white woman got mad and somehow she smacked her. She said, “You ain't gonna
live past this moment”. She said, “You go home, we gonna come get you”. They were talking about
the Nightriders. And so, the Ku Klux Klan Riders. When she went home, and you know the house that
lived in was a little cabin by the woods. And so, she told them, “I'll go out the back door in the wooded
area and I'm gonna stay here and I'm gonna fight 'em”. So they wanted to see if anybody was in the
house that they could drag out to hang. That was the “Klu Kluckers”. So they came in the door and
she hid behind there. She took an ax and cut off his head and she threw it out and she threw the body
out. She slammed the door and ran into the woods. And then they thought they were all still in the
house so they just set the thing on fire. But all of 'em was gone. She said, “That's how we came to
Roanoke”. (laughing) I knew it wasn't true but that's the way she would say it. They were always
telling me things that weren't true. (laughing) This guy told me that – you know we had pig's feet and
chittlins all the time. Chittlins were real good but he said, “You wanna know how the first black
Christmas came?”. I said, “How did the first black Christmas came?”. He said, “Well, you see them
chittlins you eatin'. You see them pig's feet your momma always buy you.”. I said, “Yeah”. She said,
“Everybody likes pickled pig's feet”. I told him, you know. He said, “Well, it was Hog John who done
it.” I said, “Who's Hog John?”. “Well, I'll tell ya. You know back in those slave days, right? The
Christmas was a white thing and they gave all the presents and stuff to them and they would rejoice and
eat up all the food and black folks didn't have and they'd be hungry for a week until they stopped
celebrating. And so, this little ol' guy named Hog John, he used to like to slaughter the hogs, right? So
he slaughtered that pig and then he took out the intestines. You see the white people didn't want the
intestines. They thought they were nasty and really they were. So he soaked 'em all in salt water until
all the fecals came out of it and then once you soak it, he took it and boiled it. And then he made the
little ol' hot sauce that he made hisself and then he said the feet, they didn't want the feet either. So he
tried to – He took 'em – He had some vinegar. He put all those feet in a vinegar jar and cooked 'em a
little bit and then put them in a big vinegar jar. And they'd also have the taste of pickles and so he said
the people that was in the cabins, they could smell the food from the white people's house and they just
didn't – They was just hungry. And so he said that he'd come in there to each and every cabin and gave
them the chittlins and the ________ and the pickled pig's feet and they just feasted the whole week.
And he told him the true story of the first Christmas about Jesus and he said, that was the first black
Christmas”. I knew that wasn't true but you know – (laughing)
MB: That's a great story.
GC: I hear all these things from people back in those days. They would just make up things.
(laughing) And I'd listen to 'em.
MB: Great story. What kind of businesses and shops did your family frequent?
GC: I tell you the truth, at the time, we had a lot of Jewish people in there, in businesses. And they
would give black people credit. That's something nobody would do at that time. They knew who they
were. So she would go to their place and she would shop at the Jewish store. You know, I think they
called him Moses, ol' Moses. He called himself Moses but nobody knowed his real name. Anyway,
he'd go over to ol' Mos' store and we'd make a credit application. It was in a black neighborhood and
he would give us chicken and everything you'd want and we ate so good. So, my mom ran out of
money 'cause daddy wasn't making enough so she couldn't pay Mos fast enough so she would make
little payments but it wasn't enough. And so, Mos threatened to take her to court. And my mom told
'em that my daddy worked for the city. He just didn't have enough money to pay ol' Mos on time. And
that she has 4 children and what was she to do. And so, the judge took sympathy on my mom and said
didn't have to pay ol' Mos but $1 a month. (laughing) So ol' Mos was so mad. The judges, when

�they'd take 'em to court, they would just do the same thing. You don't have to pay ol' Mos nothing but
$1 a month because they were anti-Semitic. That's what it was. (laughing) And so, by that time, ol'
Mos, he moved out. He moved out of the neighborhood. He just couldn't – That's the way it was. You
had these little foreign people who would give 'em credit when nobody else would, clothes and all.
(laughing)
0.50.48.4
MB: Do you have any favorite childhood memories?
GC: Well, I can't – I think so. You know there was this guy – I'm not going to say his name since its
gonna be on tape but, anyway, his name was Earl. I'll just say that. And so we went to St. Gerard's
Church because it was all black, right? When we went, we would kneel down – and priests and stuff
like that and everything and we'd see the statues and my mom said, “I just don't like these Catholics,
you know, so why can't they go to that other church. And so anyway, she said, “I like the Protestant
church better”. My dad said, “At least people won't have to be sliding around, you know to different
churches”. It was OK until Earl brought a statue of the Virgin Mary in the backyard and we all danced
– He had on these fake robes and things and we were dancing around that statue and _______ to it and
kneeling before that statue and my mom said, “Leave that thing. No more Catholic Church. No more.”
I think that's when we started going to Loudon Church when we was kids. But you know, when I went
it was Reverend James. He'd dead now. I think his son is still a preacher. But, I don't know, I think his
wife – but it was way back then. He was one of our preachers at Loudon Church. OK, they used to
have an ice cream parlor. You know where you could go and buy and ice cream for a dime. But that
was so far back but that dime was a whole lot back then. They would give us – I'd tell my mom, “We
had to have something for the offering”. So she'd give us the dime and so we'd go to the ice cream
store, eat up the ice cream and then when we was ready, we'd go back and we'd go to church, right?
And Reverend James, he had baptized all of us in the church. I was baptized. And he said, “You know
you kids, y'all have been baptized and all of this and you cannot even bring a dime here or a nickel
because you go down to that ice cream place. I seen y'all go down to that ice cream place. (laughing
heartily) You're robbing the church. Those dimes are meant for us!” It hurt so bad because I wanted
that ice cream so bad. That ice cream was so good. For a while, I just stopped going because I couldn't
get the ice cream.
0.53.25.2
MB: Do you remember urban renewal and what effect it had on the community?
GC: Urban renewal?
MB: Urban renewal.
GC: I remember back in those days they didn't have housing – not housing - they didn't have
apartments like for Section 8. You just lived in old, old houses that caught fire and were very
dangerous, you see. I think the city when they took – before they built that Lincoln Terrace, they took
those people's land. You know those people lived in the place where the gas company used to be. They
had old, really old dilapidated housing but it was theirs and it was paid for. But the city took their land
and they had nowhere to go. They were homeless. So they built Lincoln Terrace for the black people
and they built Landdown (??) for the white people. So that was the first one. But even though Lincoln
Terrace was in much better shape than those old shacks that they had, the city probably would've
condemned 'em anyway 'cause those shacks were really bad, fireboxes. But, it was theirs and they
didn't pay them for the land, very underpaid for the land. And that land is worth like billions now. So a
lot of black people got hurt because they did not get paid for they land but they went to Lincoln Terrace
and they lived. But it wasn't the same because you had to go through all these rules and regulations.
Get a job – I mean I lived in Lincoln Terrace and you'd get a job and your rent would go up. They cut
off your food stamps, no Medicare. You can't live off of what you got. Minimum wage was like $1.60
or $.85. Most people and I know I did, and its a shame, but I said I would rather stay home and take
care of my own child than get out there and they gonna take all your money. They take all your profits.

�So that's why a lot of people didn't work on welfare when they did have it because they said, “What's
the use of doing this when they gonna take everything”. I think that in a way, caused a lot of black
people to, a lot of black men to desert their families and a lot of black women to just have no hope. A
lot of black men left they family because if they stayed with 'em, they would put 'em out.
0.56.12.2
MB: What sort of jobs were available for black folks?
GC: Cleaning, what most white people would call jobs, they'd call 'em black jobs – Cleaning, food
service work and anything they didn't think there was a future in it. Only thing that an educated black
man could get was a job at the post office. The post office became the – I think they called the
“plumer” or the educated job 'cause at the post office, that's where the real money was. If they'd get a
job at the post office, they were fixed for life and then I think N&amp;W. They let them do their dangerous
work like untying those things and tying them back but you get a job at N&amp;W you were fixed for life.
You work on choo-choo trains, you got it. And those were the most advanced jobs and then the VA
hospital for veterans. Now if you got in those three, you were fixed for life. You had benefits and
everything like that. But the rest of the jobs was nothing.
MB: Were there a lot of folks that owned their own businesses like over in the Gainsboro area?
GC: They did once. When they integrated, those businesses went _______ (??) Integration – It helped
the blacks but it destroyed them at the same time.
MB: So it destroyed the community?
GC: It destroyed the community and it helped 'em. It helped 'em when they could go out to these
white places and get jobs and stuff but they were making so little, such low pay, it wasn't nothing. And
it helped 'em when they could go to any theater and go anywhere they wanted in town but it destroyed
the blackness. It destroyed the black businesses. I think it destroyed their pride. You know what I
mean? They didn't have pride anymore. Not like they used to. But they did integrate. I did have start
having a lot of white friends but my mom never did like those white friends I had. You know most of
'em were Christians. We used to meet at this place when I was grown, this place called Sister Potter's.
And all those people – That's when I got – I moved in with Sister Potter, that white lady and a lot of
people in the neighborhood, a lot of white people, didn't like it. She would go visiting around the white
neighborhoods. She said, “You better stay here 'cause they're prejudiced. They don't want you here.
And they don't like ya”. I couldn't understand that. But I stayed there at Sister Potter's for about a year
'til I got tired of it and I was working at Bailey's. And then, we prayed all night long and everything
like that and all my friends were into it. We was called – I think we would call 'em Jesus freaks then,
into Jesus and everything like that. So I brought my friends home and my momma took one look at 'em
and she said, “Don't you ever bring those people home to me.”. You know, to her it was just like an
insult. She said, “What are you doing around them for. You be with your own kind”. A lot of black
people who was post – were that way. Not only her. But they were so hurt back in those days that they
just couldn't see it. They couldn't see the whole picture. And a lot of black people are that same way.
If you bring a white person around them, and you bring 'em to dinner, they's out. “Get out of my
house. What you bringing that person in here for?” You bring a black person, they happy. But that's
the way a lot of the older women, now, say in their 80s or 70s, that grew up in all that Jim Crow, they
never healed. I think I healed more because I grew up in sort of like a half-way integration section with
Woodstock and all that.
MB: I think our interview is just about over. Is there anything else that we didn't discuss that you
would like to talk about?
GC: Well, no, but I kind of think that the churches holds everything together. That's the Mecca of the
black community, the churches, the black churches. That's the only thing I see. If we didn't have them,
we wouldn't have nothing.
MB: Well, Gloria Jean, thank you for your time.
GC: OK.

                    <text>Interviewee: Maxine Hunt
Interviewer: Dr. Reginald Shareef
Transcriber: Andrew Sterling
RS: Good morning Miss Hunt.
MH: Good morning.
RS: The first set of questions are background questions and these are just to give some history about
you as a person. The first question is, When and where were you born?
MH: Reggie, I was born in Northeast Roanoke. I don't remember the area of Northeast but my mother
told me it was Northeast Roanoke.
RS: Yes ma'am.
MH: And we moved early to 6th Avenue, Northwest.
RS: Miss Hunt, you were born in a house?
MH: At home.
RS: And what year were you born?
MH: 1930. Don't tell nobody.
RS: No ma'am. You don't look it either. (both laughing) And you say that you were born in Northeast
Roanoke and then you moved to 6th Avenue?
MH: Well, its Harrison now but we called it 6th Avenue back then.
RS: Yes ma'am. And so that's in Gainsboro?
MH: Yes.
RS: Were there other streets that you lived on in Gainsboro when you were growing up?
MH: After we moved from 6th Avenue, we moved to 7th Street and that's just below Berrill. You know
where that is?
RS: Yes ma'am.
MH: And that's where I spent the rest of my days.
RS: The third question is, Tell me about your parents and your brothers and sisters.
MH: My parents were Samuel and Susan Nicholas. My mother was a homemaker. My father, during
my early years, was a bellman at Patrick Henry Hotel. Later years, he was employed at Norfolk and
Western where he remained until he retired. I have one brother and there were 3 girls besides me.
There were 5 of us in all.
RS: Now Miss Hunt, after your father got the job at Norfolk Southern, did he work a second job or
was that - ?
MH: No, he did not work a second job.
RS: He just worked at Norfolk Southern?
MH: I used to hear him say that, “If you used what you made well then you didn't need a second job”.
RS: OK. Alright. Did you have extended family living near you when you were growing up in
Northwest Roanoke?
MH: Not near us but I had an aunt who lived with us. In her later years, she had to come back to
Roanoke to live with me and she passed here in Roanoke. We had other relatives on McDowel (??) and
Chestnut. My mother's sisters.
RS: Did you frequent their houses.
MH: All the time. All the time. It was almost a daily thing. You know Reggie, we had no place to go
other than to visit relatives, go to school, go to church or visit relatives. So, it was almost a daily
occurrence with them and we were very close.
RS: It was a close community.
MH: Yes it was, very close.
RS: Yes ma'am. Describe your house for us on Harrison. Was it a brick house?
MH: No, it was a wood house, you know. A two story house, not very well kept. It was very cleanly

�kept by my parents but the house was not of that caliber.
RS: Did your parents have a garden or did you have a garden growing up?
MH: No. We got a garden when we got to 7th Street. Our backyard was mostly garden. We had cold
house that we had chickens in that we called the hen house. My father even rented a lot off of 8th Street
where he would go and plant, you know, have a garden. With 5 children back then, you had to have a
garden because you had to can food and run the garden – the table during the summer then put up the
stuff for the winter. We had fruit trees in the yard. I can see the Damson tree now. (both laughing)
Cherries.
RS: And you had chickens? Did you have to wring chickens' necks?
MH: I never could do that.
RS: You never could do that.
MH: I never could do that but I watched my daddy do that but I couldn't do that. And then they would
hang 'em on the clothes line, you know, so they would, I guess so they could finish doing whatever they
had to do before we could take 'em in the house. (both laughing)
RS: Growing up, Miss Hunt, what type of activities were you involved in?
MH: Oh, most of our activities centered around the school and of course the Y. I was a girl scout, a Y
team and, of course, being so fond of music, I was always in the church choirs and then the school
choirs. And we would do our little traveling, you know, going around. But I was participating in about
everything they had around town. I just enjoyed doing that. And see, all around here, First Baptist
Church, the Y across the street – I'm trying to visualize where I was. And all of the activities, we
participated in.
RS: What's the earliest age that you knew you loved music?
MH: It must've been very early because my father tells me that I used to, at the table, when we would
be eating, tap on the table (tapping on table) and he would (smacking sound) my hands to stop. I just
think I always wanted to play the piano. I guess from a little girl. But I guess I really got into the
serious study of music around 3rd or 4th grade.
RS: Were you in the band? What elementary school did you go to?
MH: Harrison.
RS: Did they have a band? Was there a band at the school at that time?
MH: No, just a little rhythm band. But they had a little choir, you know, little choirs and I always tried
to get in the choirs to sing.
RS: Did you have piano lessons when you were growing up?
MH: Oh, yes.
RS: About what age did that start?
MH: I imagine I was about 8 or 9. I started as a little girl with Mrs. Moore, Mrs. George Moore I think
it was. Then later I went to Miss Whitlock, Miss Audrey Whitlock. Then to Miss Alta Mae Thompson.
And I ended up in Roanoke with Mr. Troy Gorham. Do you know him?
RS: No ma'am. I've never heard of him.
MH: Well he was on Patton Avenue in Northeast. I don't know. We called him Professor Gorham.
And by that time, I was in high school and ready to finish high school.
RS: About what age did you start playing in the church?
MH: I was a young girl. I guess a teenager. I would say 15 or 16.
RS: Now your father worked for the railroad, did your mother work?
MH: No, she didn't work outside the home but I tell you what, Reggie, she did what we call “took in
washing and ironing”. She washed and ironed. I can remember people bringing baskets of clothes to
our house on Sunday evenings, bring these clothes and she would wash them and iron them. I can
remember carrying some of them back. That was how she made her little income. And, believe it or
not, that little money she would take and pay for like my piano lessons and she was buying a piano,
paying a dollar a month or something like that on it. But, that's what she did.

�RS: Now for younger folk who will listen to this tape, your mother didn't have a Whirlpool washer and
dryer to wash these clothes with, right?
MH: No, no.
RS: So describe how she MH: Now she did have a – What did we call the washing machine?
RS: A wringer?
MH: Yeah, a wringer-type machine. But that was all. And you rinsed them in the sink and then you
carried them out into the backyard and hung 'em up on the line. And she did that year after year after
year in all types of weather. I mean cold weather. Those clothes went out on the line. You didn't have
any dryers. You couldn't dry 'em in the house so she carried them outdoors in the backyard where there
were lines - line after line to hang them up.
RS: And, at the time, again, so this younger generation will understand this, there were no steam irons.
MH: Oh no. You put 'em on the coal stove and let 'em get hot and then you'd iron. That's right.
RS: That was strenuous work.
MH: It was hard work. It was hard work. And I have seen my mother, you know, just iron almost all
day and night. Maybe take a few moments to lay on the sofa and then get back up and start ironing
again. But almost running a laundry from the house.
RS: And some of those funds went to pay for your piano lessons and to buy a piano.
MH: Yes, yes. And she continued that on through the time I was in college doing that because you had
to pay for all these extra lessons, buy the music and things. But she was a good mom.
RS: She was a good mother.
MH: Yes, yes.
RS: And with parents working like that, you learned a strong work ethic in your life?
MH: Yes, yes. That work didn't hurt anybody. And certainly didn't kill nobody. (both laughing)
RS: Well the next heading is education so, tell me about your school life growing up in Roanoke.
MH: My school life was very pleasant. I've always loved school. I've loved school. I liked
kindergarten. Well, kindergarten back then was almost unheard of but I did go to Miss Gertrude Jones'
Kindergarten. Miss Jones has been gone many, many, many years. But now Richard was related to
her, Richard Jones and you would know Richard.
RS: Yes ma'am.
0.10.53.8
MH: But I went to Harrison Elementary and from there we went to what we called – Was it called
Addison Annex? - We didn't go straight to Addison. We did the 7th and 8th grade I think in one end of
Harrison School before we went into the big building. And then we went to Addison. And from there,
I went to Virginia State. And that has been just about the extent of it.
RS: Now, at Virginia State, you were a Music Major?
MH: Music Major, Public School Music.
RS: Public School Music. And when you finished Virginia State, you came back to Roanoke. Did you
seek employment in the Roanoke School System?
MH: Not right away. When I first finished Virginia State, I went to Farmville to Prince Edward
County at Mary E. Branch Elementary School. Everybody says, “Did you go to R.R. Moden (??) you
know where – R. R. Moden was across the street but I was at the elementary school. And I stayed there
for 2 years. And then I came to Roanoke. I was off 2 years and then I came into the Roanoke system
in '55.
RS: In 1955?
MH: 1955.
RS: And so you started teaching in Roanoke one year after Brown vs Board of Education, after the MH: But I was out during those years. See, I had married and I had come to Roanoke. That's when
Donald was born. That's when I was off those two years.

�0.12.22.9
RS: Of course, later, in Prince Edward County, of course, with massive resistance in Virginia the
public schools were closed. What was it like teaching in Prince Edward County in the early 1950s?
MH: It was nice during that time. You know it was completely segregated and we thought nothing
about that. I lived there on Main Street, right across from Mary E. Branch and, of course, the church
that was so active in the movement, First Baptist, Reverend Griffin, all of those, was down at the foot
of the hill. And it was quite a peaceful little town.
RS: What about the facilities? Were the facilities – The Brown decision said separate was inherently
unequal, were the facilities - ?
MH: Well, see, we really didn't know what was over in the other part of town. We just accepted what
we had over there on our side of town. And I can't say that, but we just accepted what we had. And I
can recall even at Mary E. Branch, we had music in the auditorium. I actually taught on the stage.
That was the area that the children would come to. And there were times during rainy weather that
water would trickle down the walls.
RS: Did the children have to buy instruments or were they supplied by the school system?
MH: No, the children didn't have to buy any instruments during that time. They were so menial that
we just used what we had. And we concentrated more on the singing than the instrumental so we didn't
have to be bothered with the instruments as such.
RS: That's interesting.
MH: See, the singing, you got your own instrument. The natural instrument. (both laughing)
RS: The instrument that God gave you.
MH: That's right. (both laughing)
0.14.25.7
RS: Now Miss Hunt, how long did you teach in the Roanoke City Public Schools?
MH: For 34 years. I retired in '89.
RS: In 1989. What school did you start off teaching when you got to Roanoke?
MH: I went to Booker T. Washington. I stayed at Booker T. for – until we integrated in, what was it,
'69?
RS: Yes ma'am.
MH: And then I went to Monroe Junior High School and I stayed there until Addison closed and we
came back down to Addison as a junior high school. And what was that, '72 or '73?
RS: Yes ma'am. I think it was '73.
MH: '73, that's right.
RS: And you stayed at Addison until you retired?
MH: That's right.
RS: Oh really?
MH: I stayed on this side of town, Reggie. I worked on this side of town, in this area all of my life,
Booker T. Washington up to Monroe and back down to Addison. And so this area I know and I love
and the people of this area. So when I go into Kroger Store going around, I just see everybody that I
know that I – I love it.
RS: Its a community.
MH: Yeah, that's right.
RS: So was Charles Day the principal over at Addison when you were there?
MH: No. See Addison became – He was at the senior high school and when it became junior high
school, it had integrated and we had a white principal when I went there, John Garber, never shall
forget him. A very lovely, a very fine fellow.
0.15.54.6
RS: So at Addison, up until – let's see '69 – Oh, you went to Monroe Junior when you left Booker T.
right?

�MH: When I left Booker T. That's right.
RS: Now in Monroe Junior at that time, was that still predominantly white?
MH: And at the beginning, it was a terrible experience. It was unpleasant. I went there in choral
music and Mr. Polk was in the instrumental. Do you remember Mr. J.D. Polk?
RS: I remember Mr. J. D. Polk.
MH: And you know, it was not good at all because they did not want us there. I think the
neighborhood did not want us there either. And there was always something going on. And I recall
that (Interruption)
0.16.53.9
MH: I remember how the white parents were bringing back band uniforms and things, turning them in
when they found out that we were there. That the teachers were going to be black. And that went on
for a while and we endured it and then things seemed to just started to smooth out. And by the time we
were ready to come back to Addison, we really didn't want to leave Monroe. But I met some very, very
fine people there and I see a family now that had a lot of children there who were quite supportive. We
talk of those days.
RS: So initially, it wasn't that good of an experience but over time MH: Over time, it grew to be better.
RS: Do you think you and Mr. Polk and the other black teachers that were there that as people go to
know you MH: Know you and to find out that we were for real and that we weren't going to harm them.
RS: The children.
MH: That's right. And that we loved children and loved our work too and they became very
supportive. But the day that I walked up that walk in August of '69, I said to myself, “If I had any way
to support my child and myself, I wouldn't go in this building today”. But when it was time to leave it,
I had a totally different view.
RS: So it turned out to be a good experience and a good learning experience.
MH: Yes.
RS: Well its good that people like you and Mr. Polk were there to do that.
MH: This is true. We accepted the insults and the remarks at that time but just persevered and kept
going and it soon RS: Won the people over. Well you know Coach Day and I were talking about the whole phenomenon
of Jackie Robinson integrating baseball and he wasn't the most athletic guy. There were other men in
baseball that could play better but he can endure the insults and so he became the trailblazer.
MH: Yes.
RS: And in many ways, I look at people like Charles Day and people like you as being able to endure
as you said.
MH: That's right.
RS: And then and that affects social change. You have to have certain types of people that can do that
who were competent but also had the character I guess you would say.
MH: Yes. The wherewithal or something to accept that. And sometimes you would go in at the end of
the day feeling quite down.
RS: Yes ma'am.
MH: But for some reason we would get it and go back the next morning ready to go again.
0.19.30.4
RS: You guys were trailblazers and you really changed things. One question on here, “Did anyone else
in your family attend college?”.
MH: Well, now let me get this straight. Yes. In my immediate family, my brother went to Bluefield
State. My sister, Jean and Jackie were nurses and they were at St. Philip's in Richmond. They're both

�deceased. My sister Norma went to St. Paul. She did not finish. But all of us had some college. My
parents were great believers in education.
RS: Well that was my next question, “Was education a priority?”.
MH: It was a priority. They had limited education but they believed that we should have it and they
worked hard. And really all of us did get some very good training. All of us had college experience.
All of us didn't finish. We had 2 registered nurses, a physical therapist and a music teacher. And the
one that didn't finish was a very, very good cook, seamstress, she could do everything. But she did not
finish St. Paul.
RS: And your parents encouraged both the girls and your brother to go.
MH: Oh yes.
RS: So it wasn't that, “We're going to focus on him and “.
MH: Oh no. Everybody had their turn. And we came on down the line. Everybody took their turn. It
was just never thought of that you weren't going any further than high school at Addison.
RS: So it was an expectation.
MH: That's right. It was like grade 13 was coming up next year. (both laughing)
0.21.28.4
RS: Did you find that the priority of education was reinforced like say in the church and the broader
community?
MH: Oh it was. Emphasis was put upon education everywhere we went. Now you take my church. I
grew up right over here at Hill Street and I'm still there. But you know it was on Peach Road. My
pastor, they encouraged us every step of the way and he would let me play for services when I couldn't
play and make mistakes would stop and cry and would stop and make you start again. And everybody
made us. It was expected of us. And our teachers and our preachers and everybody told us, “You're
gonna be somebody”. And that's why we were able to achieve Reggie, because the expectations were
high and we were highly encouraged.
0.22.23.8
RS: So it was the community effort.
MH: Yes. Everybody.
RS: You can sort of contrast that with today where, I think that's one of the things that are missing
especially for young African-Americans today.
MH: It is. Everywhere we went. If you went to get your hair done. If you went to the barber shop.
Everywhere you went, they expected you to do well. And they did not take anything less than that.
And so we strove to do that.
RS: Well, that was good motivation and when you hear someone like Hillary Clinton say that it takes a
village to raise a child, having grown up in that type of environment, I know exactly what she meant.
And you know it as well. And, again, the collective body has to encourage certain values.
MH: Now you take your mother who was a librarian at Harrison. Donna, my daughter Donna, was
there. They got out before I got out at Booker T. Donna would go to the library. I don't know whether
you remember riding home with your mother. I got home, I called her home and down the hill Donna
would come. You see, that's the type of support we had. I didn't have to have my child going in the
house with a key around her neck. She was in the library until I got home.
RS: And that's a real supportive environment. I mean, that – and so you have a group norm that you're
going to do something. My mother would always say that everybody – God gave everybody ability to
do something. So if you couldn't go to college, you could do something with your hands. There was
something for you to do.
MH: That's right.
RS: There was a collective community expectation.
MH: And everybody worked together. Everybody worked together. That's why we can walk around
and leave our houses unlocked and doors unlocked and nobody bothers because everybody was like

�one big family.
0.24.24.2
RS: When you were coming up Miss Hunt, describe your home life. For example, did you and your
siblings gather around the radio to listen to stories or listen to programs on the radio when you were
growing up?
MH: Yeah, that was all we had. We didn't have any television or nothing like that. We would gather
around the radio and listen to certain stories. Let me see, I can't even recall 'em now. (laughing) Some
of them I could remember on the radio. We would do little things like to entertain ourselves like have a
talent show. You do what you can do and I'd do what I could do and we just stayed in the yard and
played around the house because you couldn't go out the yard now. You had to stay in the yard and
we'd run around in the yard until it was hard like cement. You know, the ground was as hard as cement.
(laughing) And you could sweep it with a broom. (both laughing)
RS: Wasn't a lot of grass.
MH: You could sweep it with a broom it was as hard as cement. (both laughing heartily) But we were
just really there together and we enjoyed ourselves together.
RS: Y'all were creative in finding things to do to entertain yourselves.
MH: That's right. Have programs and I would sing and somebody else would dance. We'd just do
things. You didn't have any money to do anything else with. We could go to the Virginia Theater on
Saturday afternoons. But other than that, you entertained yourselves. And entertained each other.
0.25.55.5
RS: Do you remember while growing up when you got your first telephone or refrigerator or ice box?
MH: That's funny. When we got our first telephone and the telephone would ring, we would knock
each other down running trying to answer it. And the same thing was about Venetian blinds, I
remember. We were just so excited when we got Venetian blinds because that was something really
nice at the window and we would go and open and close you know with the cord. But we enjoyed the
telephone more than anything. When it would ring, everybody would run to answer it.
RS: Did your friends get phones around the same time?
MH: Well see, we had party lines. Do you remember party lines?
RS: I remember party lines. I was explaining to this young lady what party lines were. Party lines and
private lines. Nobody had private lines.
MH: Nobody had private lines. See you couldn't afford private lines. Everybody had party lines and
our friends, we would eavesdrop. That's what we used to do.
RS: That's what you used to do. (both laughing) I was explaining to her how you could be having a
conversation and someone else could listen to the whole conversation.
MH: All of your conversation. Can you imagine that now.
RS: And that was entertaining as well.
MH: That's right. And I remember one of our teachers was on our line and she told my daddy that she
thought I was listening in and, of course, I denied it but I was. (laughing) But I know I didn't do that
anymore. (both laughing) Yes, but our friends all up MacDowell (??) – See I guess they were on a
certain line and so it was up the hill and around. We were at the foot of 7th Street. You don't even know
where that is do you? You know where Petit's (??) store was?
RS: No ma'am.
MH: Did you ever know where Dr. L. C. Downing lived?
RS: Yes ma'am.
MH: Well it was right there. He was at the top of the hill. The minister lives in that house now I think.
Dr. Bolden.
RS: Yeah.
MH: Well we were right down at the bottom. So all around there we were on the same line I guess.
RS: So people in that community around the same time began to get telephones -

�MH: Phones about the same time. But I remember that phone because we used to knock each other
down running to answer it. (both laughing)
0.28.26.3
RS: What about a refrigerator?
MH: Well, you see, we had really progressed when we went from the ice box. Now you don't know
anything about the ice box.
RS: I don't know about the ice box.
MH: Ice box was where you put the cart out and the man would leave a block of ice. Well, when we
got the first refrigerator we were really moving up. We were really high class then. And follow that by
a washing machine. Momma didn't have to wash on the board anymore. We were really getting up,
real up.
RS: So all of these things were exciting.
MH: They were. And we were grateful for them and appreciative of them. Oh yeah, they were very
exciting.
RS: And you felt like your quality of life was improved?
MH: Was improving. That's right. We were getting better all the time and you see, after we got the
Frigidaire, you could keep things longer. I remember with the ice box you couldn't have food at
certain times of the year and in the real cold weather, you would just sit it out on the back porch. We
had a closed in back porch. Set it out on the step. But I tell you what, we didn't get sick from it like
they do now with all the modern things they have now. We would set it out on the steps and it would
be covered up and stay cold and made nobody sick.
RS: Any other things that you remember that when you – Venetian blinds, the telephone MH: That sounds so simple but that was big at that time.
RS: Yeah, if you didn't have it that was a big thing. (both laughing) Was there anything else that you
remember that you got and it was an exciting time in your household?
MH: Well no, not really but we just enjoyed everything that we got.
RS: And the new things that you got, you were appreciative of.
MH: Very appreciative of and just enjoyed it.
0.30.15.5
RS: So as you got older and before you went to Virginia State, life was getting better?
MH: It was because see things were getting better. I remember we were doing things like getting the
charge accounts. We used to didn't have that and I remember when my mother got a charge account
down at Spiegel's or Pugh's or somewhere. We could go downtown and just get little things. It was
getting better. And we were feeling it too. (both laughing)
RS: Well that's good. When you were growing up, was your front porch a social area? Was that where
your friends came?
0.31.00.2
MH: That was the gathering place. And our house – I have friends today who were my friends then.
Our house, being 5 of us, maybe where there was one child, they would come to our house. I have a
very dear friend now who was at the church. And on Sundays, she would come home with me after
church, stay for dinner and when it was time for BYPU – You've never heard of that have you?
RS: BYP?
MH: BYPU.
RS: No ma'am.
MH: Baptist Young People's Union.
RS: Oh, no ma'am.
MH: Y'all don't have that now?
RS: No ma'am. So BYPU MH: Baptist Young People's Union. I think now they call it Baptist Training Union.

�RS: I see.
MH: I don't believe they even have it now.
RS: No, I'm not familiar with that.
MH: Well, that met on Sunday evenings about 5 or 6 o'clock, something like that. And that's when we
would come back down to the church for that. And stay for night service, you know. And all of our
friends would gather there. And my mother used to say, she would look around and there'd be
somebody else at the dinner table she didn't even know they were there. But you know, there was
always plenty of food. And our friends were welcome.
RS: And so your house was sort of a gathering place.
MH: For our friends and during the summer and when we would go to the fair and places like that, we
would all go together. My daddy, like I said, we didn't have anything to take a vacation, but my daddy
would take off a day and carry us to the fair. And that was the big event of the summer to go to the fair.
RS: And you looked forward to that?
MH: Yeah. And we would all get together and go to the fair. That was a big day.
RS: When you went to the fair, were there any instructions? I'll tell you why I ask this question. By
the time I came along, there was this, I didn't know if it was a myth or if it was true about Eco and Ico
(??) how people at the fair would steal your MH: But that's why we always went together. And daddy was always there to carry us and we never
walked around and talked to strangers or do anything, we all stayed together, all bunched up together.
RS: That was a powerful story.
MH: And everybody believed that.
RS: And have been and even when I went to the fair, I mean, as a child, Melbur (??) used to have to
take me 'cause the same thing, he would have to keep up with us.
MH: That's right, you couldn't stray.
0.33.46.2
RS: No, you couldn't stray. What type of chores or work did you have to do, Miss Hunt, when you
were growing up at home?
MH: Oh, we had to do everything. There was no such thing as you – you know you cleaned your
room, you washed the dishes. Now, my mother never made us do anything that would keep us from
doing our schoolwork or takeing part in our activities but we had to do that – that room had to be clean.
And we knew our chores. Mine was to clean the bathroom and some of us had to wash dishes. We all
had different chores to do. But they never interfered with our training and school because that was first
in her mind. But, we did that in addition to doing our work at home. And the front porch. I have a
memory of the porch – I didn't clean it once and my mother really, really wore me out about it so now I
have a thing about – I'll come out and clean the front porch if I won't clean the kitchen.
RS: That made a lasting impression.
MH: A lasting impression. (both laughing)
RS: Now tell me this Miss Hunt, when you guys were growing up, y'all had a coal stove?
MH: Yeah.
RS: Yes ma'am. And your brother or your father and your brother MH: Would bring in the coal. That's what I was saying, but after we got the furnace, the coal house
became the hen house. I said cold house at first. You know when the trucks would pull up in the yard
and dump all the coal and then you'd take the skull (??), is that what you call it? And go out and bring
in the coal and you would – Harris Hardwood, that's what it was – you would get the wood and stack it
up on the back porch and you made the fire then (??) and we had heatrollas (??) is that what you call it?
Well the big stove, before we got the furnace, you know. And you had a stove in every room, upstairs
and down and everywhere but we were warm. (both laughing)
RS: Now when you got the furnace, was that an oil furnace?
MH: No, it was a coal furnace. You burned the coal in that and you had to go down in the basement.

�RS: OK, so that was in the basement.
MH: Make it up just like you would the coal fire in the stove.
0.36.11.1
RS: Now in your family Miss Hunt, what – are there family stories that were passed down from
generation to generation that you remember?
MH: I can't really recall any particular story. No, I can't really recall any particular stories but I know
that there were certain things that we would just do at certain times when we would be having like
Thanksgiving, Christmas and all like that, there were certain rituals but no particular stories. And there
were particular menus. My daughter even now says that granny always had turnips with the turkey and
I don't have turnips. And she remembers that.
RS: So she remembers that ritual?
MH: Uh huh. Certain things like that but no particular stories.
RS: Were there any discussions in your family about ancestors who had lived during the period of
slavery or the Civil War or anything like that?
MH: No, now I never got any of that history. I guess there were some but my father was an only child
and he came to Roanoke to work from Waynesboro and I never really knew too much about his
background but no real – No, I don't guess we had _____.
RS: You mentioned it, ironically, you sort of answered this other question. It says, “Did you have a
family recipe that was passed down through the generations?” I heard you say that Donna always
talked about your MH: Turnips.
RS: Were there any recipes or anything?
MH: Well, I'm not a cook. I'm an eater though. But I'm not a cook. And I haven't passed that on to
my child. I tell ya, my mother did all the cooking. She never had anything to let us experiment with.
It all had to be used for the purpose. So she did all the cooking for us. She would let us go and do the
playing on the piano and take – I even once tried to take some dancing lessons, anything that was
offered. You know Miss Farvley (??) had a little dancing class once. And we went to that. She would
do all the cooking, so I got very little of that but she was some cook, I'm telling you. But we knew
what we would have and we all had the big Sunday dinners you know. And we kept that up even until
she passed. We would go to her house every Sunday for the big family dinners.
RS: Even after you were married and had children, had Dawn?
MH: Mm mm. And the children went there. We all went there.
RS: Oh, I see.
MH: And she cooked those good meals. And you know Reggie, she could get up and cook those on
Sunday mornings and still make Sunday morning church service. I've often wondered how did she do
it. Because when I get out on Sunday mornings, I can barely get a cup of of coffee and a piece of toast.
But she would make rolls and cakes and things like that and we would have big dinners like that. And
yet, she would be in the morning service at church also. I just can't RS: That's remarkable.
MH: I just – We said she was some lady.
0.39.51.4
RS: She had to be. Miss Hunt, did Mr. Hunt or your brother serve in the military?
MH: Yes, they both did. My brother was in the Marines and every time I hear something about Camp
Lejeune, I think about him. And Jim Webb says he was in the Marines as he continues to campaign for
the Senate. He was in the Marines. And I think of my brother. And my husband was in the Navy and I
used to hear him tell of his tales over there about the Navy.
RS: Did your brother have a good experience in the Marine Corps?
MH: Well, he seemed to have as far as I know. He seemed to have. And then when he came out of
there, I think that's when he went to Bluefield State and still after that he went to NYU. He kept going

�because he – When he passed, he was a Physical Therapist at the VA Hospital.
RS: And Mr. Hunt served in the Navy?
MH: Yes.
RS: Did he seem to enjoy that experience?
MH: Oh, from what he talked about, you would've thought that he was the Commander in Chief.
(both laughing)
RS: Mr. Hunt was a good man. He could tell stories.
MH: He was quite colorful. (both laughing) I remember at his funeral, Reverend Wilkinson made
some remark that the whole church just cracked up. Something that Alaska told him. (laughing)
0.41.23.4
RS: Can I ask you about that 'cause your husband was the only person I've ever known named Alaska.
Where MH: We don't know where his mother got that name from. And we used to just tease him and say that
evidently she wanted to travel and had a longing to go to Alaska. We don't know. And that was really
his name, Alaska.
RS: Well even as a child, that struck me and I never would ask my parents about it.
MH: Because you all wouldn't do things like that but now the children would ask you. And Reggie,
his middle name was Colt, C-o-l-t. We don't know where the lady got that name. (both laughing) And
he grew up with people calling him “AC” because he didn't like to be called Alaska.
RS: I didn't know that. Do you have a fond childhood memory? For example, a holiday event, a
family vacation, a gift, something that really sticks out when you were growing up.
0.42.24.9
MH: I don't know. I had a lot of really nice experiences. Let me tell you one. It doesn't seem like its
important. You know there was a time when styles were important to girls and there was this style of
coat, the hooded coat, the long hooded coat. And all of my friends, my best girlfriends had gotten a
hooded coat. I didn't have one. And I was sort of hurt by that. I didn't have a coat. And one day I
came in, this was my dear Aunt Sally. I came in from school and she was living on Madison Avenue
and as I told you we would make our daily visits. And when I came in, after school I came by Aunt
Sally said, “Honey, go upstairs and look on the bed and bring me that bag down here”. And I got up
and went upstairs and brought the bag down. And she said, “Look in there and see what it is”. I looked
in it. It was a hooded coat. I was never so happy in my life because I had what my friends had. Now,
that doesn't seem like a big thing to kids now because they have everything but that was the way our
aunts did us. She knew that I was upset over not having this coat and I never will forget it. She got it
from Shutz (??) United. That was a store down on Campbell Avenue. But that's what the bag said.
And that was this coat in there. That meant so much to me. So much.
RS: Well, families used to really do that. That happened a lot in my family as well. If you wanted
something, your parents didn't think you needed it or couldn't afford it.
0.44.24.2
MH: And I remember when I was at Virginia State – Now this was my Aunt Helen who lived with us
but she had moved – you know during the war, a lot of the people went to Washington and Connecticut
to get better jobs. And Aunt Helen eventually ended up back here with me and living and passed. But I
was at Virginia State. I was a big girl then. And the choir was getting ready to go on tour and we were
in Chapel. It was during Religious Emphasis Week and now I know you wonder why I remember so
vividly. And everybody was talking about what they were going to wear on this choir tour. Well, I
knew that it was nothing in Roanoke to get. I sat there in the choir and on the back of the church
bulletin, I guess you would call it now, I wrote Aunt Helen. I wrote her a letter and I told her that the
choir was going on tour and I wish I had something to wear like the other girls. When Chapel was
over, I mailed that letter and in 2 or 3 days, I got a long distance telephone call. Well, that was unheard
of. I don't think I had ever been called long distance at school and down the steps I came in Barrett

�Hall at Virginia State to answer the phone. It was Aunt Helen. She said, “Look, Baby, I got your letter
and auntie just wanted to let you know you're gonna have something new to wear like the other girls
and stop worrying about it.” And she sent me a suit, black patent leather shoes, white blouse. And I
had – When she go so she couldn't live alone, and her minister called me and said, “I'm bringing her to
you”. And I kept her. I kept her. I remember those days.
RS: Well, those are special times. I think the story behind that is that they really wanted you to focus
on your work.
MH: And she didn't want me to be upset about – She said, “I want to put you at ease. Go on and get
your lesson, you're going to have something to wear like the other girls”. And she did.
0.46.39.5
RS: It reminds me of when I was at Virginia State and my Grandmother Thomas always did domestic
work, right? I got to the point that I didn't particularly – We were a different generation so I didn't
particularly like my grandmother working for white people.
MH: That's right.
RS: So I always like to dress Miss Hunt. I made this announcement one time. I came home and I said,
“Grandmom, you're 70 years old, you ride the bus everyday. You don't have to do that and I don't
particularly like for you to work for white people like as in domestics”. And the first day, she told me,
she said, “Well, Reggie, you know all the people. They treat me well. They treat me with respect.”
And I said, “Yes ma'am”. Because she was deconstructing my argument. She started off with that.
And then, Miss Hunt, she hit with me, “And you know all those nice clothes you like to wear. Where
do you think they're coming from.” (speaking simultaneously and both laughing heartily) That was a
real good lesson for me. It was a real good lesson for me and it also taught me that just like your aunt
was making sacrifices so that you could have nice things and again, focus on your work and not feel in
any way incomplete, that's was what people did. 'Cause that's exactly what my grandmother was
doing.
MH: That's right. They really, really did do that. And these grandmothers are something.
RS: Yeah, they are.
MH: I'm at the point in my life now where I'm experiencing that.
RS: And I know you're a good grandmama.
MH: I don't know about that. But I am experiencing it. (both laughing)
0.48.16.0
RS: What are your memories of the Gainsboro Library and Miss Lee.
MH: Ohhh, bless her darling heart. Miss Lee did everything in the world for us. It was right over
there around the corner right? They've moved and made stuff around here so much I can't even get my
bearings. It was in the bottom of the Y, you know. And Miss Lee was just everything to us. We went
there. She – Not only did she help us with our work and how to use the library and everything but she
was such a lady of grace. She taught us good manners. She taught us how to be ladies and we just
learned to love Virginia Y. Lee. That's a name in this town to people in my age group that's revered and
honored with great respect. She taught us so, so much. And she was such a gracious lady. We had
such wonderful role models in ladies like that. And we loved Miss Lee but she didn't take no stuff from
you. She didn't take no stuff off of us now. We had to walk the chalk and do the right thing. But she
was kind. She instructed us and she made us be ladies. Talk about the card catalog and all that stuff.
They don't even call it now.
RS: No, they don't call it that now. (both laughing) But, yeah, I know she had a big influence over my
mother and I think my mother used her as a role model.
MH: Yes, I'm sure your mother did.
0.49.50.0
RS: Were there other people in the community when you were growing up that you thought of as role
models?

�MH: Well, you know, Reggie, our teachers and our ministers were always our role models. And we
respected them. Oh, just think of people like Reverend A.L. James. There was a church over here at my pastor Reverend D. R. Powell and people like Miss Sly. I remember Miss Sly carried me – I'm still
having teeth problems – Miss Sly carried me to the dental clinic up in Burrell and Dr. Fiers (??), Mrs.
Fiers husband, was the dentist. I remember he started pulling a tooth and it hurt and I jumped up out
the chair and ran back down to Harrison School. Miss Sly didn't do a thing but come right over there
and just beckon me out the room and I jumped up and jumped in the car and went on back up there.
But I respected all of my teachers and I dearly loved Eunice Poindexter. I loved her unto death.
Because she was the choral teacher at Addison. See, that's where my interest was. I respected all of
my teachers. Miss Sadie Lawson, Miss Ella Mae King – You don't even know those names.
RS: Oh now I knew MH: Miss Ula Hackley (??) – Great souls, great souls. Miss Anne Sykes Morrison. She was my
teacher and when she got married, we got mad. We loved her so we didn't even want her to get
married. (both laughing) That's how we felt about our teachers, really we did. We were upset because
we thought that if she married, she wouldn't like us like she had. (laughing)
RS: And all these were intelligent, strong women.
MH: Yeah, that we just admired and loved. Yes, they were strong women. And we wanted to be like
them.
RS: I remember Miss King and Miss Lawson and of course, Nancy Fiers and I are the same age so I
remember MH: So you remember Mr. Fiers, OK.
RS: I remember Miss Fiers so its quite a few of them that you mentioned. Actually, they were at
Addison when I was in there.
MH: Eunice Cooper, was she there? You don't remember her?
RS: I don't remember her. But Miss Poindexter, I remember her.
MH: And Miss Lawson, Miss Ella Mae RS: Miss Ella Mae King. And you're right, they were all strong. They were disciplinarians. They
were fair but 0.52.37.8
MH: This is it, they were so fair – We would say that Miss Poindexter was so fair that we believed that
if her momma was late for choir rehearsal she would put her momma out of choir. (both laughing) She
was so fair and that we learned to respect her for. You towed the line.
RS: Well, Coach Day and I were talking about this old issue of punctuality, being on time and that was
something that I got from my parents and he talked about and Eunice Poindexter. You had to be on
time.
MH: Reggie, would you believe that when we were getting ready to go to the music festival at Virginia
State College, we would have extra rehearsals. Now, she would call rehearsal at 7:00 in the morning
when the Norfolk and Western whistle would blow at 7:00, she would get up and close the door.
Nobody came in after that. But, we were all in our seats because we wanted to be in the choir and go to
the music festival. And when the whistle blew, she closed the door.
RS: That's an interesting phenomenon and I was telling Coach Day, that's the one thing I see with my
children. My children think – They've learned all these big words now so they'll say sometimes,
“Daddy, you're so neurotic about time”. (both laughing) But I gotta be places 15 or 20 minutes early.
MH: That's right.
RS: And they feel comfortable getting there 5 minutes MH: Boom!
RS: That's right. I tell my son all the time, “Well you don't know if there's going to be an accident or
what could happen”.
MH: That's right.

�RS: And it just goes right past 'em. He gets places but he's never early.
MH: And he'll be on time but he won't have no time to spare. (both laughing)
RS: And I worry about them about that. (both laughing)
MH: That is so precious.
0.54.32.6
RS: What were some community leaders that you remember? And this is either in childhood or in
your adult life.
MH: Well, you know the one community leader that I hold in dear respect was my pastor, Reverend
Wilkinson. And you see, during the time that he was really making the moves for integration in this
community, you see, a lot of those times, I was out there with him because he would carry the church
choir. And I had the greatest respect for Reverend Wilkinson and those who moved with him. Now
some weren't so outstanding as far as the community was concerned but they were there with him to
give him the backing that he needed. And I held him in high regard. Well, you see, our leaders, like I
say, were our ministers and all, they were the ones out there with out educators doing the work for us.
There were others in the NAACP and things like Mr. Holler and – Let me think – There was another
man – Who was Mr. Hudsona (??) - I can't get that straight, my mind is failing me but he was out there
too.
RS: Yeah, I remember him. But an interesting thing, we lived right down the street from Reverend
Wilkinson. I mean they lived on Staunton and we lived down on 13th Street.
MH: Yeah, yeah, you lived down on 13th Street.
RS: So I grew up with Nadine and Cassandra.
MH: Oh yes, but do you know every year on his birthday and father's day, they send flowers to the
church.
RS: Oh, really.
0.56.22.8
MH: And it was just this past June 18th is his birthday and I went in church and this gorgeous flower
arrangement was on the altar. And I kept looking at it and I looked at it and thought, “What are those
flowers for?”. And finally I said to one of the ushers, “What does that card say?” And it said, “In
memory of him from the girls” and then Reverend Stone finally announced it. And I looked at them so
and Reggie, you would not believe, I said, finally I interrupted the service. I said, “Pastor, I'm just
having an emotional feeling now”. I'm looking at those flowers. I said, “Would you allow me” incidentally they had named me a music director emeritus – I said, “Would you allow me, as music
director emeritus to exert my influence. I would like to change the meditation hymn to one of
Reverend Wilkinson's favorite hymns.” And he said, “Yeah, surely”. And I told 'em what number it
was and we just had a wonderful experience and those flowers were from Nadine and Cassandra so you
do remember him.
RS: Well I always thought, you know, it was always tough, I assume, growing up to be the children of
a minister. Reverend Wilkinson was a leader and I remember Nadine and Cassandra, they were people
who helped integrate schools around here.
MH: You remember there's a picture, I think the World News still carries it, they show it every once in
a while, when their mother lead them up to Melrose School and Reverend Wilkinson was out of town
on that day, I remember that. And I said to my husband then, I said, “Look, you get up and go over on
Melrose because Uvasini (??) was the name we called it”. I said Uva's (??) going to be carrying the
girls to school. And then the marchers told me that their mother said the same thing to her husband,
“Get up and go over on Melrose because she's got to carry those children to school”. And I guess for
protection for her and support. Yes, they surely did. They integrated Melrose School.
RS: Yeah, I remember that. I'm going to Harrison and my mother was there so it was very comfortable
for me but I can remember Nadine and Cassandra and as I've grown older, I can understand the sort of
stress that was in that family.

�MH: You know it was even stressful for the church. Remember, we had to put that door on the garage,
you know the one that rises up because he would be out at night and we worried about him coming in.
It was a strain. And even to go with him on the choirs when he would go on these meetings, it caused
stress in even our personal home because my husband did not want me doing that.
RS: Exactly.
MH: Once, he told Reveren Wilkinson that. He said, “She's not going”. He said, “Because, see, she's
going to keep on following you and she's not going to have a job”. And so Reverend told him, “Well,
then that would give us a case”. And I remember Alaska said, “No case is going to feed us”.
RS: I don't think MH: It made stress all the way around.
0.59.39.3
RS: And I think that as you look back on those events and people like me have benefited from it and
certainly generations afterward, you don't think about the stress and the strain that that put on families
and it put on communities. Again, that was a lot on Nadine and Cassandra to integrate a school.
MH: Bless their hearts.
RS: I think we don't think about it. You have to talk to people like you. I never would've thought but
it makes perfect sense but the kind of stress it put on your family and Mr. Hunt. 'Cause I can hear
Elmer Thomas saying the same thing and keeping the job was the main thing.
MH: And here I'm gonna run out here and play the piano with you marching and carrying on.
RS: I can remember once my Uncle Bunny who cooked on the railroad.
MH: Yeah! I knew Bunny and Leo both.
RS: Well Bunny had an alcohol problem and he fell out cooking. This was the late '60s and my mother
gonna go down here and talk to the people about getting Bunny his job back. And I can remember my
father telling her, “Don't do it”. And then he told us that Maxine, “If you're gonna do it, don't be smart
with the people because I can lose my job”. That was a big issue. (both saying the same thing
simultaneously) That was a real big issue. And I can understand Mr. Hunt saying, “Case is fine but
that's not going to put anything on the table”. (both laughing) And so they've got a question on here
about segregation and the civil rights movement and – Any memories about Gainsboro or urban
renewal in the area?
1.01.24.2
MH: Well, now you see urban renewal destroyed my church. Now that was a big thing for us and we
felt like we never got what our church was worth to us. And we had to go to Addison School for 2
years to worship. You know we worshiped in the school until we could get the little church that we
have over here now and its a nice little church but its not the church that our old church was. Urban
renewal really did put a hurting on us at our church. And we were unhappy about it, very unhappy
about it. And I just think of all of this area. When I go around down here sometimes, I actually get
sick but we have learned to pick up the pieces and move on with the times but urban renewal really did
tear us up. It really, really did.
RS: I think people would have to be from this community to understand.
MH: And to feel it. You will never know how I felt when Burrell went out. I was raised playing up on
the – where the new part is where Carillion has its – that was like the tennis court and we used to play
on that area. And my father was sick a lot and those great nurses like Miss Willis and Miss Sims and
Miss Moore, they nursed him to health. And when that place went out of existence, I was hurt.
RS: I think – I don't know if you're familiar with this lady, she's a psychiatrist, a professor of
psychiatry, Mindy Fullelaw (??). She's come to Roanoke several times and talked to people about the
psychological and emotional impact of this very thing. And I'm glad that Mindy has done that because
she records it because nobody – When people see urban renewal, they'll see new buildings or whatever
MH: And they think its wonderful and it is in that way but what it has done to get to that. And I really

�do – Burrell was really dear to us and I was never happy. And yet I go there to the Carillion doctor and
I'll tell them, I said, “Well I'm sitting in the area of the emergency room or I'm -”. And the nurses look
at me as if I was some woman out of – (both laughing). But, it was quite a strain on us when we had to
give up Burrell.
RS: Well, a lot of the institutions that people had invested in and they held memories and nobody gave
the black community those things, these people really built those things up.
MH: Reggie, think of all the things that we had. You could go almost across the strip, there was the
drug stores, the theater, the hotels – Think of Dr. Brooks and Dr. - All the things that – And we don't
have that.
RS: Anymore. Well, they did destroy the community and it destroyed vital institutions.
MH: Yes, it did. It took everything we had. And I can almost feel the hurt now to even talk about it.
1.04.49.7
RS: Well Miss Hunt, I have one final question in closing. Is there anything else that we didn't cover
that you would like to share with me today or share with this oral history?
MH: I don't know of anything that I could share with you Reggie but I think this is a wonderful thing
because our children really don't know anything about it. And they don't know what a lovely place we
have here in Roanoke. But they will never know if we don't give it to them this way. You know, there
are so many little things I hear even in – of course you know music is – but they don't – our children
don't know the hymns of the church. Our children don't know spirituals. I mean just so many things,
even with my grandchildren when I talk about it. They laugh sometimes when I'm saying these things
and there's just so much – I guess that's so dear to us that I guess our children will never know. And
once I heard – and I'm gonna stop now – Once I heard them talking about they were gonna teach the
children the National Anthem and the parents were raving about that. Years ago, we taught all of that.
We did a unit on it. And every child knew the National Anthem, “My Country Tis Of Thee” or
“America The Beautiful” but our children don't know those things now.
RS: And thus, they're disconnected from the society because, I mean, that's what schools and churches
and other institutions did. They reinforced these things.
MH: That's the word, that's right.
RS: And so the children really miss it. They don't have an appreciation for these things or even for an
institution like this and I think that's one of the reasons a project like this is really important.
MH: And Mrs. Lewis is just about to flip she's so excited over it all. She is really – And she's so
grateful and appreciative. But she has done such a lovely job here at this library and I certainly hope
we can keep our library here now.
RS: Well, I hope so too. I mean I really hope so.
MH: Yeah, its lovely and we are enjoying it and we call and ask her to do all kinds of things.
RS: Well, she's – Carla's – She's what I think a librarian should be.
MH: Well, the class of '56 and that was my sister's class, Jackie's class, my younger sister's class, had a
reunion and one of the members called and said we're going to have a souvenir booklet and would you
like to remember your sister - and I'm talking too much – and I called her and I said, “I want
something beautiful about sisters, something beautiful”. Sent me two things that were just outstanding.
RS: Well, thank you so much Miss Hunt.
MH: Is that the lady that writes for the paper.
RS: Yes ma'am.
MH: That's what I was thinking. Oh! I like your articles darling. I've never seen you in person.
Hello! I'm pleased to meet – I'm going on about something else. (both laughing)

                    <text>Interviewee: Claudia Whitworth
Interviewer: Dr. Reginal Shareef
Transcriber: Andrew Sterling
RS: Good afternoon Miss Whitworth. The first questions are a set of background questions and the
first question is when and where were you born?
CW: I was born in Fayetteville, West Virginia on November 7, 1927.
RS: How long have you been – lived in Roanoke or been a citizen of Roanoke, Virginia.
CW: I first came to Roanoke in 1945 to work with daddy after he had started the Tribune. Of course, I
haven't been here consistently since then but that was the beginning.
RS: Was that the first time you worked with your father at the Roanoke Tribune or had you come – He
started the Tribune in 1939 right?
CW: Yes, but he didn't - but the publication – when we say he started in '39, it didn't mean that it
started rolling off the press because it took a couple of years to work and get all of the equipment
together and everything to actually start on our work and that didn't actually come until '41 perhaps.
RS: I see. So the paper's been published weekly CW: Regularly RS: Since 1941.
CW: Since '41. He started it in '39 getting all of everything together. See, it takes a whole lot of
equipment when you're printing it yourself. Now, you can start things and get somebody else to print it
for you and you can go with that. In those days, it took a lot of getting things together to get ready to
publish on a regular basis which we've done for the last sixty-some years.
RS: What were some of the obstacles that your father and you faced in getting the Roanoke Tribune
published initially?
CW: Well, I understand others had tried and started with, and since, before and since the Tribune or
other black publications but unless you plan it well, as he did, and he had worked on papers before
coming here. But in those days, back in the '30s and '40s, you know, there were untold obstacles.
Having to print it yourself, you've got to have the equipment. You've got to have the know-how.
You've got to have the help, the supporting help. He managed to get all of that and mainly through
people at the Roanoke Times, believe it or not. They were the ones that helped us most. They were not
our – because of their cooperation with us, teaching us, helping us to get Linotype machines which was
the process in those days, Ladbed (??) presses and all of this stuff over a period of time. And then
teaching us how to operate it and this kind of thing was what helped us to survive. But the obstacles,
I'm not familiar with them. Of course, they'd be financial obstacles and this kind of thing. But, there
was a need for it and there was the desire for it. So, I guess finances would have been the primary
obstacle which, once you gained the confidence and trust of people, they're willing to go along.
0.3.28.7
RS: Well, that's interesting what you said about the Roanoke Times. I mean, they were fellow
journalists and so they were helpful.
CW: It was individuals. It wasn't the corporation.
RS: It was individuals there.
CW: But individuals within the paper who helped us right up 'til we were moved over on Henry Street.
There were people that worked at the Times in recent years. If I got in trouble over there, all I had to
do was call and he would be right there within a matter of minutes to help me. So, they've been –
Tommy Powers and different people that worked over there at the – Bill Slusher – and I like to even
call these names 'cause they're people who remember. These people – They were union people and
they used to put up at the Tribune down on Gillam Avenue, you know it was all glass – They would put
up newspapers around there so they couldn't see these union people in there helping us get this Tribune
out each week.

�RS: Oh good. That's very interesting.
CW: It is. People always want to tell you the problems they have and the bad stuff but we've had a lot
of support. A lot of good people, black and white, especially the white ones.
RS: Good, good. Miss Whitworth, when you got here, say from 1945 on to say 1960, how was the
Tribune primarily distributed?
CW: Well, we've always primarily been distributed through mail.
RS: Oh, OK.
CW: But, mostly through mail. All by mail subscriptions. But that mail process – we used to stack all
up – we used the label and stack 'em all up and put 'em on the dock at the post office and they worked.
Now, we have to do all of the post office's work. The more they charge us – I think they used to charge
us $8 or $10 a week to get that paper and mail it out. And now, I tell you, its unbelievable. We have to
pay about $1,200 a month just to mail a few papers. And we do all of the work. Any papers – Any 6 or
more papers going to a certain zip, we have to wrap individually, label, do everything – sack 'em for the
different distribution centers. When they leave the Tribune, they're ready for the Melrose Branch or
this branch. We've got 'em sacked. We do all the post office work. Isn't that amazing?
RS: It is amazing. And you pay more. (both laughing)
CW: Astronomical, believe me.
RS: An astronomical amount.
CW: Astronomical amount and keep going up. We have to pay by the piece, by the pound, by the
percentage of advertizing, by all of this stuff. Its unbelievable having been in that business this long
and see the changes.
RS: And not all the changes have been for the good. (both laughing)
CW: Not really.
RS: Were you an only child?
CW: Oh no.
RS: OK. Tell us about your brothers and/or sisters.
CW: I just have one of each.
RS: You have one of each.
CW: Mm mm.
RS: OK
CW: Neither of them is here. Both left home early. I was the only one that stuck around.
RS: Yes ma'am.
CW: You'll always find one that will stay home and kind of take care of the home fires.
RS: OK. And do you have any extended family still living in Roanoke?
CW: None never lived in Roanoke.
RS: OK.
CW: I never had any family RS: Alright. When you were growing up or when you came to Roanoke, what type of house did you
live in? Where did you live?
CW: Well, back in those days, you just got a room with somebody. So daddy had a room over here on
Rutheford Avenue and when I first came in '45, I stayed there also. And then I also got a room down
here on – With Miss Bragons (??) - down on the short end of Gillam Avenue down there. C.E.
Bragons, I think they have a lodge named for him now but they misspell it. They spell it with two “G”s
and they always spell their name for the record. They spell their name with one G, Charles Bragons.
And I lived with 'em when I came here. The sweetest people you ever want to know. They just had
one son, Charles Jr.
RS: And that was on the short end of Gillam?
CW: The very last house down there we lived.
RS: Now, in addition to working with your father, what other activities were you involved in?

�CW: Oh, everything he was involved with. He was pastor at the time at – up in Christiansburg and he
went there in 19 – We lived in Lynchburg, we were living in Lynchburg at the time that I was born.
But, momma always went home and that's where Fayetteville came in. That was her home. But we
were residents of Lynchburg at the time. And he had worked with printing down there also at the
seminary down there at Lynchburg at the seminary. But, you were asking RS: Yes ma'am, about activities like social activities and I know CW: With daddy, you were asking where we lived here and daddy had been called from Lynchburg to
pastor the First Memorial Baptist Church of Cambria. It wasn't Christiansburg then and it wasn't
Shaefer Memorial. He changed it to that during his pastorate. And when he left there 14 years later, it
was Shaefer Memorial Baptist Church. It was still in Cambria which had its own political subdivision
just like Vinton and all of these places. But since then, I think its all incorporated into Christiansburg.
RS: When you were here, was your father and you by extension, were you guys members of the
NAACP or group activities like that?
CW: I was a teenager then so I wasn't really into all of that stuff. All I did was help daddy. I went
back and forth with him to the church because we had to commute. We stayed in Roanoke and we had
to commute during the week for different services and I played for his choir and we were just together
all the time and whatever he did, I was trying to back him up with it. (both laughing)
RS: Under the heading of education, tell us about your school life and where did you attend school and
that type thing.
CW: OK, I did my first and second grade in Lynchburg where we were living and then when he took
the church in Christiansburg, that was the first and second grade were my only public school
experience. Because in Christiansburg, they didn't have public school for blacks. So, we went to
Quaker schools and that was Hill School which was right on the church lot practically. They've now
turned it into a center but that was where I went to elementary school from the third grade to the
seventh grade. Quaker schools only have 7 elementary grades and 4 high school. So, there are only 11
grades in the Quaker schools. So I went there and graduated from Christiansburg Institute, also a
Quaker school. So I graduated from Christiansburg Institute when I was 16 and went to Bluefield State
College because of the shortness and then I had started in Lynchburg when I was 5 because I was born
in November and school started in September but they let me start when I was 5 so that made me come
out in 11 grades at age 16 and go into college at age 16.
0.11.51.8
RS: That's interesting. Miss Whitworth, I know, I don't know but I would assume a Quaker schools or
Quaker influenced schgools there was, in addition to the academics subjects, a moral philosophy.
CW: Absolutely. They were very similar to your public schools. You know, the curriculum and all of
this. They just put more emphasis on education. And what made it so interesting is most of my
teachers and a lot of the others, most all of 'em came out of Roanoke. So I always dreaded and always
hated never have gone to school in Roanoke. They always seemed to be such a closeness of the people
who went through Addison and this kind of thing and that was one of my biggest regrets that I never
did get to go to school in Roanoke. But, having had all Roanoke teachers had pretty much the same
effect because they really produced some top students. When you come out of Addison, you went
somewhere. And when you come out of Christiansbug Institute, a lot of 'em went straight into teaching
because we had – it was just like it said, an institute, it wasn't just a high school. We had dormatories
for boarding students. There was an Agriculture Department, a Home-Ec building, all these separate
buildings and they taught the secretarial stuff and all kinds of stuff. It was just like a university really.
So, when you came out of there, you were ready to go into the classroom as a teacher and some did.
Some did. Some went into teaching from there. But it was quite a different experience. But all of our
teachers, as I was saying, Ruth Claytor, Roberta Claytor. We had Ruth do pre, we had Connie Johnson
Hamler with - all of these people came out of Roanoke. I mean they were excellent teachers and they
put out some products. Just like in this valley, they did it up there at Christiansburg Institute.

�0.14.16.4
RS: Oh, see, I didn't realize that. I didn't know the people from here came up there to teach.
CW: They were very young and most of them were out of Virginia State. 20 years old, 21, or
something like that. They were very young.
RS: So then at 16, you went to Bluefield State?
CW: Mm mm.
RS: Was that experience different for you?
CW: It was, let's say brief. (Both laughing) Because – I hate to put this on tape but I didn't make it to
Thanksgiving. They kicked me out before Thanksgiving. (Both laughing) I was a rebel. I've always
been a rebel and I used to just run with the upper-classmen and initiating and doing things to the other
freshmen. It was a lot of crazy things. (Both laughing)
RS: That was an experience as well.
CW: Yeah, but it – I really didn't want to be there. I had wanted to go to Hampton and I guess with
finances or whatever, it just didn't seem like a college to me and I just – Having come from – my
experience is a little different from most people my age. You see folks who they were the only ones
that made it into college. See, I came from 5 sisters and all, and my mother and all of her sisters who –
my mother graduated from Ohio State in 1922. And they were all teachers, you see. And the others
from West Virginia State from Oberland - All of them were highly educated and when I went into
school, we went in educated, you see, so it was a little different. Its not just like being a street kid and
rebelling and getting in – When I went into - the French teacher – My mother used to teach French and
English and when I went up there, the lady who was teaching me French was just butchering it. So its
kind of hard. It made it difficult and I had to stop taking it at Christiansburg because that lady and I
can't call her name because she came from Roanoke too. (laughing) When you come from a whole
family of teachers like I did, you're going in these places at a little different level. So that was one of
the reasons for my rebelliousness.
0.16.48.0
RS: So you left Bluefield State, where did life take you?
CW: See I went up there in '44. It was in the – I graduated from Christiansburg in '44. Then I went to
– Then I went that fall to Bluefield and then when I came out of there, before Thanksgiving, I went to
work at the powder plant up in Dublin. I wasn't old enough but I didn't have any birth certificates or
anything so I just went to work. I always did look older than I was. So, I guess it was in 1945 that the
government people knocked on our door and said that they had reports that I wasn't of age and I said,
“Well, you can't prove it”. And he says, “Well, its not up to me to prove it. Its up to you to prove you
are.” (Both laughing) So, I hadn't thought of that. That was the end of my powder plant government
career. (Both laughing) So then I came down here and started working with daddy and that was in the
Summer of '45.
0.18.02.6
RS: Did you stay here? You mentioned earlier you didn't stay here continuously.
CW: I stayed here for a while. Daddy wasn't the easiest person to work with even learning the
Linotype stuff and I was trying to learn it too. People were trying to teach me but it was a little difficult
so I left and went to – First to Dayton, Ohio, and well, actually, I got a geography book and to pick
somewhere to go. I didn't know anybody. I was so sick of everybody I knew and I picked Dayton.
Back in those days, 60 years ago, they had geography books. I don't know what you call 'em now. But
it had little dots for little towns and big dots for big cities and so I picked a medium sized dot. I said if
the dot's too small, I can't get a job. If its too big, I'm too country to get around. So, Dayton, Ohio – I
picked Dayton, Ohio. I said I never heard anybody in my life going to Dayton, Ohio or coming from
Dayton, Ohio. So I always remember, I had saved up my little life savings through the summer of $50 I think it was. And somebody came and tuned the piano that week and charged us $20. So I paid
him. I said, “Well, when daddy comes, he'll give me my $20 back”. No he didn't. “I didn't tell you to

�do it”. So now I had $30 and I walked down the hill to the train station to get my ticket to Dayton,
Ohio, out of that $30 and that was my introduction to the world. (Both laughing)
0.19.55.4
RS: So was Dayton a good fit for you?
CW: I didn't stay there – Well it was an amazing story because when I got – as I was leaving, my
brother had called from - At the time, he was working for IBM in Poughkeepsie, New York – and so he
just called and I told him I was leaving home and where I was heading. He said, “Oh, I was in the
service with a guy from Dayton and he gave me his phone number”. So when I got there, I checked
into the YWCA. Then they had rooms you could stay. I called this fella and so they came and got me
and took me to their house for dinner. We were sitting out in the backyard and a car had drove through
the alley there on the way and backed up and the lady got out and said, “Claudia Alexander”, and she
was from Fayetteville, West Virginia. I hadn't seen that lady since we were little kids and she had
married a teacher and they were living in Dayton and she recognized me. And she said – she went and
got my clothes out of the Y and took me home with her and I stayed with her until I got a job.
RS: God was looking out for you.
CW: As always. Always. (both laughing) I wouldn't be here – all the crazy things I've done. I have
kept Him busy. (both laughing)
RS: Well, under this heading, the next heading is life and home and it says, you talked about you were
with your father all the time and mainly he was a minister and he was trying to CW: Get the paper, right, mm mm.
RS: And, so you inherited this entrepreneurial spirit from your father. How did you feel about that?
CW: Well, my leaving home would be whenever we'd have a big falling out. Then I would go where I
could learn more about the business because – So I left and went to – That was how I got – When I
went to Dayton. I tried to get a job as a Linotype operator but you had to be union in those days and
here I was just a teenager and a woman. They weren't hiring women in that kind of a profession. So, I
wound up after not being able to find work in that profession. In New York, I had a sister there so I
went up there where I got a job on the New York Age.
RS: On the New York what now?
CW: Age. The Amsterdam wasn't printed as a newspaper. The Amsterdam is more popular but its
printed in Jersey. It wasn't printed in New York. It still isn't I don't think if it even exists, I don't know.
But there was a paper called the New York Age. In fact – who is it that was here, Ida Wells used to
work on it. Well, she worked in the news – you know in the office part. I never saw a newspaper
office. I always worked in the dirty shops – the grease and graphite and hot lead and I didn't even come
through the front door. (both laughing) I was always in that part of it. Learning how to do that
composition part. In those days, it was pretty rough and heavy and this kind of stuff. There were no
women in 0.23.39.5
RS: I was going to say, with the fact that you were a woman CW: It was hard and you had to be tough and that added to my toughness. Because being in the
process, you only had – we called 'em magazines that you had to change to change fonts of type, you
had to change for it and these were heavy metal things that you had to lift from the ground and put up
on top. And I would have to ask for help with some of that and I used to hate to have to ask them to do
anything for me. But, that was where I learned really how to operate on newspapers in Ohio. I did
work in Cleveland. I went to Cleveland. I kept going different places for different reasons. I would
get a job at the Cleveland Herald and in Columbus – what was the name of that one? - the one in
Columbus – Ohio State Sentinel. That's what it was. And that was where I was getting my training.
I'd come back 'cause I couldn't learn from daddy. He was, we just, I'd go somewhere else and learn and
then I'd come back and try to help.
RS: Was he receptive to the - ?

�CW: No. (both laughing) It was always a battle. But I could stick it out.
RS: So you were gaining experience CW: Absolutely.
RS: In your family, were there family stories that were passed down through the generations? You
talked about your mother and her sisters going – all being educated women. And you knew that – was
it CW: You know, our family – that's what's so odd about these educated families. They're not close like
the other families that have to kind of depend on each other to make it. And that was one reason I
wasn't that attracted to education because they were very formal with each other. There wasn't a loving
kind of stuff you see with little close, uneducated families and it just didn't turn me on. There was
nothing about it I wanted to be like. So that was a part of my rebelliousness. I just said, “If this is
education, I don't really need it”. And they would just tell us, “Now don't associate with these and
don't do this and don't do that”. And I was always doing the opposite. I was always drawn to certain
people and especially people and trying to tend to daddy's people in Christiansburg that he didn't have
time for because he lived down here. So it was just totally different for me. So, no, we didn't have
family – we were very formal. We sat around the breakfast table and talked very little and they lived in
DC and different – you know the sisters and when we'd get together – I don't even remember seeing
them kiss each other in a greeting or anything. Just formal, very formal. And there were two of 'em
living in DC and they would, one would meet, visit the other on Sunday. You'd sit in the parlor and one
would serve you sherbert or something just like a stranger. You just can't imagine, so it just really
didn't grab me. (both laughing)
0.27.14.1
RS: Do you think that that was the way that middle class blacks at that time felt you should act as
middle class?
CW: I think so. I really think so. I just don't know where they got that from but it just didn't appeal to
me.
RS: Just very refined and culturated type of CW: And you had to dress a certain way and I couldn't chew gum or I couldn't do this. You know,
that's what Miss Pullen said at the banquet, she wouldn't allow any of 'em to chew gum in her class and
she took some to the 61st reunion, class of '61 reunion.
RS: My sister's in that class.
CW: “Well”, she said, “OK, I brought some packs of gum here today. Now you can chew”. (both
laughing)
RS: Finally.
CW: But in those days, chewing gum was very degrading. So you couldn't do that.
RS: I think a lot of that was to show that as a group, we could have some refinement or culture or that
type thing CW: To be examples of what you can be. It, you know, if that's what you want to be but you needed to
be put with some sort of affection or something which it wasn't. It was just totally the opposite. That
refined – and you know I tried to maintain a certain degree of that, you know, in my rapport now to
show you that you can mix the two. That it doesn't have to be either/or.
RS: Well I think that's what happens. You know a lot of people find balance in that but – In fact, again,
we used to use the term probably in a derogatory manner but we used to call them
bourgeois/bourgeoisie you know from the French and that's really, when I was coming up, that was the
impression that I got of certain people who were just so formal and almost so strict, you know, that they
didn't even seem natural.
CW: Now, if you were born into the affluence, the black affluence, and there were a few families like
in Roanoke, the Slater families, you were born into that. Its just a little different but when you come
into it from the fields, you know, where you worked for the families, you see, its a different kind of

�mentality there.
0.29.59.3
RS: And so then, during your travels, this brings us up to about what 19- when you were in New York
working with the Age CW: That was during the 40s and 50s, Cleveland, New York, Columbus, all that was during the 40s
and 50s.
RS: You would come back to Roanoke periodically to work with your father.
CW: Yes. I was never gone more than a year or two at a time and I came straight back to the Tribune
to try to put that whatever it was that I had learned into that.
RS: And was the paper growing at this time?
CW: It has always been slow growth and still is. In fact, we - growth – bigness has not always been
one of our goals. I remember at one of the NNPA conferences, I said, “Bigger isn't always better”.
And then they had the Pittsburgh Courier and the Afro-Americans and the – They had all of these big
newspapers and I said its going to be hard on these big papers when this tide starts turning and now
most of them are gone. Because when you're small, you can ride different – but when you're big,
you're dependent on a whole lot of help, a whole lot of everything to keep you out there and the
Tribune is still around. When all of these expenses and things they throw at you. Its hard to handle if
you're big. So we've always kind of deliberately stayed small enough to handle what I believe in and
what I don't have to – If one of your biggest supporters advertizes and somebody comes out with
something wrong, you can't bite the hand that's feeding you. So, I just try to stay small enough.
RS: And independent.
CW: And independent enough. So far its worked.
RS: Its worked. Its worked well. (both laughing) Let's see, did you or your spouse or any of your
children serve in the military.
CW: Yeah, daddy was in World War I and served in – what was it? - he was in the 8-0-2nd Pioneer
Infantry in France and all around. And then my brother was trying to volunteer - this was during the
draft days, you know back then. He wanted to go into the Navy so he tried to volunteer but we didn't
have any birth certificates having been born out there in Fayetteville. You know it was a little town in
West Virginia. They didn't have birth certificates for black folks. So by the time he got his birth
certificate, and it wasn't his right age. He had put his age up so that he could get away from home.
Like I said, I was the only one that stayed there. It wasn't a pleasant setting. So, everybody just kind of
jumped ship as soon as they could get out of there. He wanted to – by the time we got all his false
credentials, they said he was too close to his 18th birthday to volunteer. He was going to have to be
drafted. So they drafted him and put him in the Army. They'd ask you what you want and then they'd
give you the opposite. (both laughing) But they did put him in the Air Force. That's all my father and
brother. There was nobody left but my sister, mother and me and none of us ever served.
0.33.49.1
RS: Do you remember particular businesses or shops around here that you utilized?
CW: Oh my, do I ever. There were plenty of them all around. The cleaners, your tailor shops, in fact,
you had to be 'cause we couldn't utilize anybody else. And that's what made the yard so special. In
fact, I was writing about it in this week's paper. I brought one in to make sure you read – after the
Henry Street Festival. The first years of it, I didn't even attend because I was too crushed with what
had happened with Henry Street and the way it happened and everything but then the people involved
with it over the years and after it got moved to Elmwood Park, we started kind of getting involved.
And each year, once we started, we never have stopped. And sitting there, looking at it, I expressed it
in today's editorial. Everything then, because of the days of segregation, were mostly on the yard.
Your dentists, your doctors, your hotels, your theaters, even your churches, your everything, if it wasn't
on the yard it was in the vicinity. You know, Gainsboro and your grocery stores, your tailor shops,
everything was there so that was all we knew was patronizing our own thing. We could go downtown

�and buy clothes in some places. In some places you couldn't try 'em on but you could buy 'em.
Different things like that. But we had our own everything of necessity.
0.35.38.9
RS: Well do you think as an entrepreneur, you hear this all the time at business schools, the need for
the black, for there to be an entrepreneurial class in the black community. Now we once had that but
obviously things changed with integration and being able to go everywhere. But, what factors do you
think hinder an entrepreneurial class from developing in 2006?
CW: Well, it goes all the way back to the 40s and 50s when in the days of desegregation. So I don't
know if you watched any of that “Eye On The Prize” that's going on now. The whole revolutionary
process is such a distasteful one you know. Had desegregation been done through incentive instead of
forced, it would, it probably, I don't even think it would've taken longer because if they had offered
incentives to people who did this – They thought, it seemed like it would take forever but I really think
it would have happened quicker because – but it happened the other way around. Not only, I just know
about Virginia and I'm sure because I was right through the midst of that era coming into the early 50s
and this kind of thing but in Virginia when you were forced – forced integration you see – and I say
integration instead of desegregation because desegregation, that's desegregating your black schools,
your white schools and mixing it up proportionately. We were all integrated into white schools, closed
down black schools, displaced black teachers, principals, all of this kind of stuff. We were forced into
situations where we were not wanted by the teachers. We were not wanted by the parents and the
students just reacted to that. You see what I'm sayin'. And through that – I kind of put it by saying,
summarizing it by saying, “If you've got somebody holding all the cards forced to deal in somebody
that doesn't even know the game, how many winning hands you gonna deal 'em”. This is what
happened. The race desegregation happened. They made 'em do it. They were determined its not
gonna work and it hasn't. And look at what – it just allowed us to come in where we weren't wanted
and so now that mentality is still there. We never go rid of that. Frank Totive (??), when he was here,
and we worked closely with him – A lot of people fussed about how much he made – That man, I don't
know when he slept. He was up around the clock. He could call – If he meets you, he'll call you a
name if he sees you tomorrow. He knew people. He loved people. He spent his whole time
desegregating these schools through incentives he called it. He put the first magnate schools, all of 'em
in black schools. If you want these schools you're gonna have to come over here. And he spent his
whole time putting Roanoke on the map in magnate schools which they are getting rid of all of them
now. And he said, “OK, I succeeded in doing that but I'll admit, I never got off the ground with teacher
attitudes”. He couldn't deal with that. He brought people in here from Florida with conferences to try
to work with attitudes and this person I knew, I didn't know who he was when he brought him but he
was on the Board with me at Norfolk State and he was Cecil Cod and he had been hired in Florida to
deal with the same thing with the population that wasn't black population. It was different.
0.40.20.5
RS: HispanicCW: They were being integrated into public schools. The same thing they didn't want. So, working
with teacher's attitudes and this kind of thing, it was a stonewall and that's where we are today because
all of the schools that were integrated or desegregated whichever you want to call it, have resegregated. I walk to work from down Melrose Avenue past Forest Park, that was all white. And they
forced us into that. Now its all black. And all the teachers are white. Its not happening just in
Roanoke. I mean they're talking about everything else but they're not dealing with the real problems.
And when you're forcing kids out into the street, and that's what it is now, you're making it oh so
uncomfortable. They're not learning. You're not trying to teach 'em. That's not the point. You're trying
to prove a point here that they're ineducable.
RS: So the magnate school concept where you got an incentive – If I'm interested in a particular
subject and I'm a black parent and she's got a white daughter and she's interested in the same subject,

�there's an incentive to go to that school.
CW: The dance school, the aerospace, nothing there. See it was connected with BPI and up there in
Flemming, all of this was connected. I worked through these programs. Let all of them disintegrate,
never tried to keep it going. The groundwork was there to really do things but it wasn't wanted.
RS: And so when you force people, you're going to get this resistance.
CW: You're going to get it. They're gonna do it if they have to do it. And on top of that, the, you see,
you couldn't get any assistance if you peacefully integrated schools. No assistance whatsoever. You're
on your own. If you could start a riot, you'd get riot funds. Any amount of riot funds. Now what kind
of picture is this?
RS: They created dis-incentives.
CW: That's right.
RS: I mean this is what economists talk about all the time. You have to have your incentives lined up
or whatever your strategic goal is. So, if you try to do something peacefully and you don't get any
reward, but if you start a riot or if you start trouble then you'll get the reward.
CW: That's what I'm saying.
RS: Its the incentives that create the problem.
CW: That's right. And I can go into some proofs of that right here in this city. And then I was
listening on “All Things Considered” or “Fresh Air”, one of these talk programs, and someone who
worked with the state at that time in Richmond was saying, “I never even thought of that. Not only did
you not get money from the state to peacefully do it, they were threatened to get funds withdrawn” he
said. If you do it, we're gonna cut your funds off. So, all of this behind the scenes. So you see what
we were dealing with then and we're dealing with the same mentality now.
RS: You make a good point. Again, I like your analogy about the magnate schools because then
people literally have freedom of choice based on their interest so there is an incentive to go.
CW: To go and RS: You don't come with all the attitude that somebody has forced you or pushed you to go somewhere
that you don't want to go. I actually hate to see Roanoke City abandon the magnate school concept and
I know that Toter had put Roanoke City Schools on the map with that.
CW: No other school in the country had an aerospace school like he had here and had it in – they made
sure that died a natural death. You see what I'm talking about? Instead of taking advantage of that and
putting Roanoke on the map with it.
0.44.20.7
RS: So we're going to have these antagonists CW: Right!
RS: Because of this almost coercion to put people together. Well that's interesting. I never thought
about it CW: A lot of people don't think about it and I've been out there in the middle of this stuff and I know.
I'm not a bench-sitter. I've been out there in it all the way.
RS: Now Miss Whitworth, I think it was in 2004, you were Roanoke's Citizen of the Year and I wrote
that column. (both laughing)
CW: I don't know what happened there. Whether it was a pacifier or what.
RS: I wrote that column and one of the things that I talked about was always your calm demeanor,
your spirituality and I did a very imperfect evolution of you as a child of a minister and going to
Quaker schools and then being involved in the Bahai Faith so, could you fill in my gaps there? How
did you end up in the Bahai Faith? Tell us something about the Bahai Faith .
CW: Well I certainly wasn't looking for it. It is very unusual that – It was on Henry Street and there's
no community here at any time. I came through street teaching is what they call it. Because the Bahai
Faith came into this country on this high elite. Because it started in Iran but the persecutions and all of
the history of it was so – well, I don't know how I'm trying to condense it into just a little something but

�during the Baha'u'llah, the founder of the faith exiled and persecution and imprisonment over a period
of 40 years. It was in 1910 after the Turkish Revolution that they were forced to release all of the
political prisoners and that's when – but over that period of time, the faith had drawn people from
universities and all, Oxford and everything – to recognize who this person was and so when it came
into this country, it came through these universities. In fact, the early Bahai's, when we came in 35
years ago, you even had to take a written exam in order to come into the faith at that time until the
grandson of the manifestation said, “No, no, no, this is for everybody” and he says, “You're gonna have
to take this to all of the people”. So that instituted what they call street teaching and they were going
through plantations and this place, bringing the faith to ordinary people. That's how I, that's where I'm
coming from. They were coming through Henry Street street teaching and it was a little gray-haired
white lady from South Carolina and her husband who was from Vinton and a Persian lady, those three
people. And she walked into the Tribune and said have you every heard of Baha'u'llah. I said, “No,
and I don't want to hear about him”, just like that. And she said, “Don't you believe in love and
justice?”. And I said, “Doesn't everybody?”. I told you I was a rebel. (both laughing) She just kept
trying to talk to me and I was just so rude and I was looking at how she was taking me and that, to
begin with, kind of softened me. And she held up a little pamphlet that had a big sun on it that had God
in it and it had rays with Moses, Muhammad, all of the former manifestations and it had Baha'u'llah at
the bottom, the promised one of all ages. And the way that – it kind of took the sting out of me because
I said, “That's possible”. Its what they call progressive. Now there's only one God that speaks to man
periodically according to mankind's maturity and need. And I said, “That makes sense”, you know.
And this age seemed to be a different age which required a different manifestation. So then I stopped
being mean (chuckling) and started listening to her and she gave me a little pamphlet which I was
going to throw in the trash until I read it. It was the Bahai Faith was a new independent universal
religion who's aim is to revitalize mankind spiritually, to break down the barriers between people and to
lay the foundation of a unified world society based on two principles, justice and love. I can't fight
that. So I started investigating and the more I investigated, its the most astounding thing I've ever
known in my life. Its bringing all the people across – all the sheep in to one shepherd, into one fold,
one shepherd. Its always been prophesied but here is the blueprint. So that's why I started following
the blueprint and it is working, believe me. It is working. Thank you for asking. (laughing)
0.50.01.8
RS: Oh sure. Because I think, not a lot is known about the Bahai's.
CW: No. Do you know why? Because the whole world is run by religion and politics, right? And
there is no money in the – The Bahai Faith is a religious order and a political. So that's why the
Ayatollah said “Yes” when – what was her name? - the one who interviewed that doesn't speak well,
what's her name, has the lisp talk, the famous lady, you know, what's the famous interviewer? She's old
now.
RS: Barbara Walters?
CW: Barbara Walters! That's the one. She was interviewing the Ayatollah and she asked him about
putting the Bahai's to death because they were putting them to death by the thousands. And he said,
“Yes, we are putting them to death because they are not a religion. They are heretical.” Well I said,
You're not all wrong. We're political and religious”. But there's no money in either. And that's why
nobody is – If you are elected to office, there's no individual who has any title or any power anywhere
in the faith after Baha'u'llah died. But its so designed that everything is done locally on elected bodies
of 9 individuals, nationally elected bodies of 9 and Universal House of Justice on the side of Mount
Carmel, elected bodies of 9 individuals. These people consult and agree on whatever goes out through
the whole – and everybody – and its all through love. Everything they send you is so loving. Its
something I've never experienced. And its done the whole world the same in every continent. And we
don't have paid, nobody's paid. If you're elected on the local level, the national level, or even in Israel,
you're not paid to go there. You're gonna have to pay your way there. Or if you need assistance, you

�can get it but only if you need it. Who is gonna promote something – Look at all the money in
campaigning for election. Now you take all of that out. Who's gonna promote a religion that's coming
in saying all this is not needed? We're a threat to everybody. And its gonna – and its working. I wish I
had invited – We had a conference at the, used to be Holiday Inn, Quality Inn up there on the hill. I
wish you could have seen that. People of all nationalities, races, just in love. We greet each other in
love. We don't even understand some languages but that love is a universal language and we have a
plan that comes from national, a blueprint that we all have to follow and its coming together so
unbelievably, unbelievably – worldwide. And look at the time is now when the meek shall inherit the
earth. You know it sounds like, “What does that mean?”. Well when you see how well-prepared when
that thing comes down and I had no idea it was coming down as fast as it is, then you'll understand 'em.
And that's why it hurts so bad about 'em – you know our philosophy is not to dwell on people's faults.
They say if they have 10 bad faults and one good one, dwell on the good one. And let me – There's
some things in there that just shocked us like it is better to be killed than to kill. Can you imagine such
a state? Some of 'em so shocking that we just don't sign on the dotted line and we're there. It takes
training in love and just like they train you in hate. They've got to train you to go out here and kill
innocent people. You know that. You gotta be well trained to go out there and kill folks you don't
know. And I found out when I went to Sac Air Force Command with Lynn Holton. They took us
through this 6 weeks basic training and how you have to train these recruits to go over there and hate
and kill people they don't know. You have to train people in love.
0.54.29.7
RS: And so you have to train people to love.
CW: Its training. Its basic training, hard training. And that's what these soldiers are into.
RS: And so when in that column I wrote about you, I talked about Turtle Tracks so CW: Mm mm.
RS: Sometimes, you've mentioned your faith there, but often-times you don't but there is almost this
philosophy of love.
CW: There is.
RS: Is that what you're trying to do?
CW: Yes. And you know what? I try not to write when I'm down or anything like that. I've got to
because the faith is, it brings you out and you're looking the wrong way if you're down. Your face is
facing the wrong – Its a reflection – you look into that sun, you're gonna reflect brilliance and light and
that's what I'm trying to reflect, the light, the brilliance, the warmth, the hope which is not in recording
what's going on in the world.
RS: That'll depress you.
CW: Its depressing everybody. Its making people suicidal and everything. You know, to get people in
that kind of mentality and where the “haves” just keep wanting more and more and you're so helpless
and when you feel helpless you do all kind of crazy things. So we got to just turn people any kind of
little way without flooding 'em with it. Just suggest, “Please, just look, there is hope. But not the way
you're looking”.
RS: That's what I always find in Turtle Tracks. I really look – I read Turtle Tracks. I understand – I
have some understanding of the Bahai Faith and I know something about you so I try to get this
message that you're promoting.
CW: That's what it is and you'd be surprised at how many people are really getting it. When I first
joined this faith and this was in 1972 and there were no Bahais here and I didn't know anything about it
and there was a pioneer here back in the 50s that she had books in this library 'cause it connects her to
this library – one of the ladies died and she had a book in her possession when they were getting
through it and it was a book donated to Miss Mitchell here at this library, one of the Bahai books you
know and this lady had it in her possession. There's so many things that tie this faith into this valley.
Its awesome. Its really, really – because the Guardian who was the last member of the holy family to

�institute the administrative order. Before that, it was all religious, spiritual, in Iran and this kind of
thing. When it came into this country, the administrative order was added to it which was very difficult
because the Iranians don't believe in administration kind of thing. And the Americans don't believe
much in spirituality. But they said its easier for an administrative person to seek spirituality than for a
spiritual person to seek administration. So its kind of a – But the tie in to this religion, to this valley, its
just awesome because the Guardian Himself wrote to this lady, Maude Taylor, who was in the Roanoke
Valley and she said I've been here for years trying to spread the faith and teach and I have not gotten
any response whatsoever. Its just – I'm so disappointed. I don't have – And he wrote back and he said
to her and I paraphrase that, “The work you have done there, you are not even conscious of it, you
know, the fact that you don't see it. You're just planting seeds that someday”. But he says, “Once
Roanoke” and he called Roanoke by name and he'd never been to this country. “Roanoke is well
established. It will affect the whole Southeast”. Then when I came in '73, the first thing I wanted to do
was get rid of this paper so I could go teach this faith. I said, “Wait a minute. I've got a big
congregation here than any church in the valley 'cause they got hundreds, I've got thousands of people”.
But I was afraid to do it and I didn't mention the faith at all in this bible belt. What changed it was I
had a Bahai lady from Florida who had a column called “New Reality” in which she just talked about
ordinary things from taking children to school, this happening, that happening, whatever she started it
off with, it would appeal to anybody. She'd bring 'em out through the Bahai faith through some
principle that would address whatever it was. Doing that – then she got married and apparently to a
non-Bahai, I don't know – but anyway, the column that she wrote in, she said she was gonna have to
stop the column. After that, I got calls, I got even from ministers, “What happened to “New Reality”?
They missed that column. So I said, Do I dare mention it in my editorials?” So I started just a little bit.
But I try to do more quoting the actual writings because they speak for themselves rather than me
taking it out of context and doing something to it.
1.00.16.7
RS: Now what year was this that you first started mentioning it -?
CW: In the editorials? I'm really not sure because it hasn't been that long. Well, yes it has. I go back
and look at some of them. I mentioned it periodically but not consistently as I do now because the need
seems so much greater now for you to investigate. And now, over the web, its so much easier to
investigate than for you to come to a meeting that I would have. And I knew I wasn't able to compete
with these pulpits and them and – But, now with the web, there's just so much love and stuff, beauty in
everything out there that would draw people and its an organized love. That's the only thing in it.
Because hate – love has always been stronger but its not organized and that's what I think I had in it a
week or so ago. Hate is so organized and it looks like its stronger. Because love is just like fireflies.
You know you're flickering here and there but there's not enough light on, staying on long enough for
you to see. But that hate, you can organize that and that's why I think that its intentional, all of these
programs they show you to make you keep hating each other, the dogs, everything about the early days
of integration. They keep pushing that to you, pushing that. They don't tell you the good stories of the
people that did – the John Browns that spent his life you know for black and going to the galas, he's –
black people don't even talk about him. You see what I'm saying?
1.02.07.7
RS: We talk about the hate CW: You talk about the dogs and this kind of thing. You can sell that hate so easy. And we've got to
get this love sold. The people are going to turn eventually out of desperation when there's nowhere else
to go. But those of us, we are told, who will turn now of your own volition, the prize is unbelievable
and I know what they mean just everyday. The prize is that you recognizing that which you wouldn't
recognize if you weren't a part of it.
RS: As the editor of the Roanoke Tribune, do you see the Tribune serving a bigger mission?
CW: That's right. Not volume or this kind of thing but spreading this love that just getting you hooked

�into some vein so that you recognize it when you see it again.
RS: Well, Ms. Whitworth, we're at the end of our hour, let me ask you this final question. Is there
anything that we didn't cover that you would like to share with us?
CW: Not really because the main thing I wanted to talk about was this school system because that
really bothers me so much. Because the older people are just products of the youth you see. And if we
don't – we can't do but so much. Its like bringing people into the Bahai Faith. All emphasis now is
placed on children and youth. We've been battling each other in this faith coming in. Just stop. Go to
the children. Cure hearts. Bring these children before – See I've been in it thirty-some years. If I had
brought children in there, they'd be so rich into this instead of trying to work with these adults which
are too old and they're not going to change but so much. So now if you can instill this love and respect
and humility, that humility. There's nothing in society that makes you want to be humble. It makes you
look like a wimp or this and all of this stuff. It takes the strongest amount of pride to show humility.
And when I am in the presence of it, I just melt. There are some - Especially males, females, anything
and there are some giants that – Doug Covington was one of them – In their presence. Its nothing you
can teach. Its something that's a heart to heart community. When you're in the presence of 'em, you
know, “This is a humble person”. And this is a person who dares to be different and you're going to be
persecuted. You're going to be - He and you know what he went through up there.
RS: He certainly did. You're right. They miss him now that he's gone.
CW: Oh.
RS: I mean the students, the administrators, everybody misses him.
CW: This humility. And this is – Everytime I recite this prayer to people, (papers shuffling) they want
me to call, please come and the Bahai's said, “There are other Bahai prayers other than that”. And I
said, “This is the one that reaches people. This is the one that says, 'please come back and tell me this
again'”. We're at the end of that.
RS: Yes ma'am.
CW: I thought you'd be here all day with me.
RS: That's what we wanted. I told Carla (??) that I know you have great strength in your faith and I
wanted to talk to you about that for this recording and so that listeners can see how your faith
influences your life, how you run your business and everything.
CW: Absolutely.
RS: We wanted to talk to you about that.
CW: And you know, it especially appeals to me and I think you are born to be whatever you are and
although you don't recognize it and this is why I think my life, the way my life has been has prepared
me for this because there is – I've always been the, what do you call it, the black sheep of my family. I
told you about all the educated ones and all. Even my sons, they don't want to listen. They come in to
work on the paper, they don't want to hear anything about it. I've been doing this 60 years. I'll learn,
I'll find it out, I'll figure it out. You know they don't want you to tell them anything. I've had to learn
humility for the first 60 years I've been fighting it, trying to demand respect. And all of a sudden, you
know, I'm learning, “Uh uh, that's not the way to do it. Stop fighting this thing”. And this humility,
learning that humility is – and this prayer has done more to de-ego. And it is a kind of an ego. The fact
that its not wanting to be over somebody. That wounded ego is worse. Because you don't recognize it
as such. So I think I have done more damage with that wounded ego all my life trying to defend
myself, prove myself. I'm worth being your daughter, I'm worth this, I'm worth that. And it has just
turned everybody off. This prayer when I was inducted into the Hall of Fame in Richmond, what was
it, '99 or something and that was the first woman from this area, not black, white or anything. And I
had people calling me saying, “How in the world did you get to do that?” I said, “Why ask me, I wasn't
on the selection committee. I wasn't a judge. I don't even know who proposed me or whatever. But
anyway, Don Beyer.
RS: Oh yes.

�CW: Don Beyer was the Lieutenant Governor and I was on the Board at Norfolk State down there.
Don't ask me how I got on a Board of Visitors at Norfolk State and got kicked out of Bluefield State
College before Thanksgiving, I don't know. (both laughing) Cause I said, “Do you know you're
asking?”. He said, “I know”. I told him if you knew who my _______ (??) and you still want me on
this board, I'll do it. They said, “We want you up here”. I said, “OK, as long as you know what you're
doing. I don't want to be sitting up here under false pretenses”. But anyway, they were so political on
that board and I told Harrison Russett and at the end it just got worse and worse and he had the whole
board full of Democrats and he'd put on these new ones that just – the whole meetings were politics and
I just said its too much and they were going to give Mary Sue Terry some distinguished award, Norfolk
State's highest award and I said, “Your timings off”. She was running for governor. And she had run
around Don Beyer who was Lieutenant Governor who was gonna run. She jumps out and runs around
him and everybody starts brown-nosing her and, excuse the expression, and jumping on her
bandwagon. I said, “You're making a big mistake”. And he said, “But she's done this for this school”.
I said, “I don't care what she's done. Your timing is off”. If you want to honor her, wait 'til after the
election and honor her. Don't do it now when she's running for office. Well, whatever. And Don Beyer
took it so graciously. He is such a precious person. I said I don't know what you doing in politics
anyhow 'cause he doesn't even belong in it, he's such a precious person. So she lost! Everybody knows
she lost to Allen. Alright. Nobody ever thought that was going to happen. They thought she was –
why didn't he clean the house on that board. See, in Richmond, he cleaned house. He said, “I even
told 'em you were a Republican”. I said, “No you didn't”. (both laughing) We're going to get kicked
out of the Bahai Faith. We can't be Democrats and Republicans. You can't be anything that divides
mankind. Now we can vote but we cannot join anything that divides people. We can't just preach one
thing and do something else. And nothing divides people more than politics. Anyway, so there was
Don Beyer running for – I'm bringing this to a point. I said I'm going back so far. Don Beyer was
running for Lieutenant Governor and the whole Republican slate won except Lieutenant Governor, Don
Beyer, one Democrat won Lieutenant Governor. And when - that was before this, that was after this
whatever it was, the Hall of Fame thing. And I had, at the end of it, all of the people – there was a nun
there – Don Beyer's grandmother was inducted at the same time so he was at the podium with me and
all of them were telling how they got there and who contributed to what but there was no mention of
God in the whole, even from the nun. So when I got up there, I just said, “The eternal flame of many a
kindred soul lit my pathway to this podium but I won't call names because its too many. I'll just leave
you with this prayer that did more than anything to get me here”. And I recited this prayer verbatim.
When I got through with this prayer, there wasn't a dry eye in the place. The whole place was in tears
because its humility, the whole thing. I want you to take a copy of it. I did this to a church 'cause I did
it last year at some program and they said, “Please come back and do it again and bring copies”. So I
fixed these copies for this. And I stood up there and said this prayer and the whole place went down.
And so Don Beyer was calling my office every day, “Please give me the prayer, please”. And I didn't
even have it on paper because when I saw it, somebody had it on a little piece of paper and I
memorized it. So I had to put it on paper and then I got it to him. Well, after that, every time I would
see him in a meeting, he'd start talking about the Bahai Faith and this poem and that he used it and this
was during that time because when he won the Lieutenant Governor, the only Democrat on the whole
ticket, his acceptance speech was this poem.
RS: Oh really?
1.13.15.0
CW: When I'm fit to go. With patience and gratitude. I've been to the task of the hour. He quoted that
poem and every time I'd see him, he'd talk about this poem and the house of worship and he had seen
the shrine on the side of Mount Carmel and he'd spend half his time talking about the Bahai Faith. And
so he said he carried it on his dashboard all the time. So I saw him years later. I said, “Are you still
carrying the poem on the dashboard”. He said, “No, got it on me.” He reached in his pocket and

�pulled it out. So I know this thing has power. That man – the only Democrat on the slate that won and
there he was. And people don't even remember that. It was so quiet and so peaceful because he was a
good Lieutenant Governor to a Republican Governor. They didn't acknowledge his existence but he
was. So this faith has so many – And one of the prayers when I got to that part, it tells us to be as dust,
dirt under the feet of my loved ones. We've got to learn how to – and I said, “be dirt under the feet –
Woah!- That's taking it down there”. And then there's the point that says, “What is dirt? What is
Earth? Everything on Earth came from it. Everything on Earth is coming back to it and everything on
Earth is totally dependent upon it in between”. So its the most important thing on Earth and we
consider it the lowest form of matter. You're cheap as dirt. Your something as dirt. Isn't that
something? So it totally turns your perspective around.
RS: That's what spirituality will do.
CW: It is.
1.15.03.2
RS: It will make you see what you ordinarily won't see.
CW: What nobody else sees and what you cannot be perturbed because they don't see. You've got to
keep your eyes where that strength is coming from, the hills RS: I think when you do that, I mean, that will allow you to be humble.
CW: And then just in the few years, look at how many people – now to be a doctor, you had to go
through some stuff to do that, didn't you?
RS: I certainly did.
CW: Anybody that had that title. Now, they got people who ain't got GEDs passing out Doctorates. I
don't know how its happening and ain't nobody saying anything. But look at how fast this world –
everybody is trying to get a title and we don't have titles. We can't have titles. This is getting you
totally turned the wrong way, trying to impress man who ain't gonna do anything for you if they could.
And the world is just so far gone now. People, doctors who can't say a straight sentence, can't
pronounce their names, but they're doctors.
RS: Well, that's what it is. I mean, we're a society that evaluates you.
CW: Caught up in that ego.
RS: All that title and a lot of material things. There is no spirituality in our society.
CW: Got plenty of churches, plenty of religion, no spirituality. You know what? I should've warned
you I'd be here all day. (both laughing) But, American Indian, they asked me to sponsor one of these
programs on Public Television and I did it. But the whole series – a Native Indian at the end of it was
worth the whole series and he said, “Religion is what you get when you're scared to go to hell.
Spirituality is what you get when you've been there”.
RS: There's a lot of truth in there.
CW: Now that's saying something. No who's been through more hell than a Native Indian. You know.
Coming from him – when he said that, that put that whole program in perspective. All this religion
everywhere, ain't none of 'em got the spirituality. Spirituality is what you get when you've been in hell.
RS: Well that's true.
CW: You'll come out spiritual, I tell you. When I try to get there without having to go through that.
Except you don't have to go there. You can – humility can come without humiliation. Once they get
that humiliation then comes the humility, you know. Look at these people in congress now. All of 'em
that go to jail and they get humility. See, that ain't no humility, that's humiliation. There's a difference.
There's a big difference. When you voluntarily give up that pride and stuff and come on down, that's
awesome. That's humility and that's spirituality.
RS: Well Miss Whitworth, we thank you so much and I'm gonna keep this prayer and its beautiful.
CW: Learn to recite it. I don't care what religion or no religion, just read that thing. I'm telling you,
'cause I've been wrestling and trying to love people - and see, I didn't come up in love remember. It
wasn't in my family, it wasn't in my mother's family. It was just full of rigidity and then in something

�else, it was something else. But it wasn't no love. I didn't come up in it and now you tell me I gotta
love everybody and I ain't never loved anybody.
RS: Well also when you were talking about you were a woman, you were African American, see
you've had CW: All of these tests.
RS: You've had a lot to overcome.
CW: And now I understand why. All of the things when I first came into this faith was, it said, you
have to free - purify yourself was the word of all hate and love. Purify yourself of love?! And I found
out well, I'm already there. Ain't got nothing to do but turn around. He freed me of the love. I tried so
hard to love boyfriends and all these things and I thought, “I'm some weirdo. This ain't working. I
don't care if they come or go”. (both laughing) I had three husbands. I didn't know love. Its just
different reasons for each one of 'em but love – what's love got to do with it. (both laughing)
RS: Well I think you have to go through all of that.
CW: You do!
RS: To really realize CW: And now when I come into a religion that says you've got to purify yourself of love which is the
hardest thing. You can possibly purify yourself of hate if you kind of understand your motives and that
you can work on but purify yourself of love? When you've got loving parents, loving children, how do
you purify yourself of that? I didn't have it. So you see, I have been brought up a special way for a
special reason.
RS: And you're a special lady.
CW: (laughing) Well, no, I ain't there yet but I'm struggling. And this prayer just touched me because
it said, “Make me a hollow reed from which the pith of self hath been blown that I may become a clear
channel through which Thy love can flow” and that made sense to me. And since I started getting that
out, God has loved so many people through me that I wouldn't have been nowhere near under any
circumstance and here He is loving these people through me. You know? Its a whole new world,
believe me it is. Thank y'all for putting up with me.
RS: Yes ma'am. (both lauging) Thank you Miss Whitworth. Thank you.

Interviewer: Dr. Reginald Shareef
Transcriber: Andrew Sterling
RS: Good morning Coach Day. I still call you Coach Day. (both laughing) Well, they've covered the
questions about your background. So I'm gonna start with your education. The way I'd like to do this
Coach Day is just to ask you some open-ended questions and periodically, I'll ask you to expound upon
something you say. If there's something you want to expound upon, that you think would be important
or pertinent to the project, feel free to do it. Carla set this up for an hour so we'll set that as a time
frame. We may finish earlier. The goal is to ask you questions and develop some depth about your
experiences in the Gainsboro community and Roanoke since you've been here and how you view
things, how things have changed in your life, etc? So that's where we're going with this. OK. So the
first question under education is: Talk about your school life. For instance, where did you attend
school? Did you walk to school, etc.
CD: I attended school in Radford, Virginia. I went to a school they called Home Boger (??)
Elementary School in Radford. For the first year, we walked to school. It was a couple of miles.
Then, the second year, we went to – had a new school in Radford called Fred Weigle (??) Elementary
School named after one of the State Superintendents of school. And, we rode the city bus.
RS: OK.
CD: And after elementary school, I went to Christiansburg Industrial Institute in Christiansburg,
Virginia. It was a regional high school which comprised of ______ (??) and Floyd County,
Montgomery County, Pulaski County, Radford City and we also had a dormitory for girls and for boys
and kids from out of the school district, even out of state, came to board there. That was Christiansburg
Institute. Then from that point, I went to Virginia State College at that time, but now its Virginia State
University.
RS: Our Alma Mater.
CD: OK, you're familiar. (both laughing)
RS: Yes, I am.
CD: Then, I did my advanced work, Masters, at Radford where you are now.
RS: That's right.
CD: At that time, it was Radford College but now Radford University.
RS: Now Coach Day, during this period, were all of these schools segregated, during your elementary
and on through your undergraduate degree?
CD: Yes, they were segregated at the time.
RS: OK. How far did you have to go past white schools to get to the various schools you went through
in Radford?
CD: Yes. In elementary and in Radford and then when I went to high school in Christiansburg,
Virginia, which was Montgomery County. We had to ride a bus. We rode a bus for about 8 miles one
way.
RS: So from Radford to Christiansburg Institute it was about 8 miles.
CD: 8 miles.
RS: 8 mile ride. And these were city buses or CD: They were school buses.
RS: Yellow school buses like today?
CD: Yes.
RS: And then when you went to Virginia State, I know that was one of the historically black colleges
and universities. So up until you finished college, most of your education had taken place in an all
black environment.
CD: That's correct.

�RS: What was your impression of the schools? For example, when you were at, in elementary school
and junior high school and high school in Radford or in the area, the Montgomery County area, describe the schools. Were they – How were the schools heated, for example, in the elementary
schools?
CD: How were they?
RS: Heated.
CD: OK. In elementary school at the Home Boger (??) school, it was a little pot-belly stove.
RS: OK.
CD: And the fellows, we had to keep it going.
RS: OK.
CD: That was one of your unwritten duties. (both laughing) And when I got - after the first few years
in elementary school, we went to Fred Weigle School. It was a new school. So it had a central heating
system. Then, of course, at Christiansburg Industrial Institute, it was a campus-style high school. Like
a little college campus but they had furnaces in each of the individual buildings.
RS: Oh, OK. So, the pot-belly stove was in your elementary schools and then you went to a new high
school and so that did have central air.
CD: It was a new elementary school where they had the central and then from that point on, it was
localized in each building.
RS: What about your textbooks? Do you remember any conversations – For example, I know when I
was growing up here in Roanoke in the late 60s in high school, we used to get books, old books from
Jefferson for example, after the kids had used the books there. Was that something you experienced
growing up or do you remember that or anybody ever talking about things like that?
CD: As far as I can remember, it never came up.
RS: OK.
CD: As far as I can recall, the textbooks were adequate as far – I never did hear too much about that.
RS: Any other differences between the schools of your education when you were growing up that
stand out in your mind?
0.05.37.5
CD: Well, it basically was – it was more travel time because the high school, Radford High School,
was only about less than a mile from our home.
RS: OK.
CD: So perhaps I could've walked there, you know. But, we rode the bus and that was the way it was
so it never crossed my mind to go there. You know what I mean? I developed allegiance to the
Christiansburg Institute. Our nickname was Tigers. So all the little kids in elementary school wanted
to be a Tiger. (both laughing)
RS: Exactly.
CD: I guess from time to time, you'd have a flashback as to what the situation was but it never really
lingered very long because we were so involved in activities. You didn't want to miss a day from
school. You didn't want to miss an activity so that was a – that was the closeness that developed. I tell
you another little side-line is that in Radford, the football team from the white high school, they would
always let us in when they had their game. They'd let us into the game for free, the football players.
The kids who lived in Radford who played football at Christiansburg. And we would do the same for
them when we – 'cause we used to play our home games in Radford.
RS: Oh, OK. That was great.
CD: We had a reciprocal arrangement.
RS: They didn't do that here in Roanoke so that was something pretty unique up there. Now, its not on
here but since I know some of your history and you just mentioned sports, what sports did you play
growing up?
CD: I played football in high school. Basketball and baseball.

�RS: Which was your favorite? I heard you really liked baseball.
CD: I did like baseball. It was – Of course, I liked the others but I felt that I wasn't large enough to
have gone to any level beyond college in football or basketball. But in baseball, I had aspirations to go
further. And I guess if I were to pick a favorite, it would have been baseball.
RS: I heard you initially say you were born in 1934. Jackie Robinson integrated baseball, I think
Branch Rickey signed him in 1947 or whatever, and since you were an aspiring baseball player, do you
remember Jackie Robinson signing? Did it impact you or did it have any influence on you at that time?
CD: Yes, it did. I was glad for him and I was glad for the race. It opened up another venture and
another avenue of success. I was delighted for him and found later on that he was chosen because they
felt he could handle it and everything and I later on discovered that there were perhaps other players
who were better than Jackie but they felt they didn't have the complete picture and it was a good lesson
in life. It takes more than just athletic ability.
RS: Well that's right. There were other athletes – a lot of athletes in negro baseball that were more
gifted than Jackie Robinson and a lot of them sort-of resented it but the fact that Jackie Robinson had
gone to UCLA, played football, was All-American Football Player there and he just had, like you said,
the social development to withstand the taunts and not to fight or not to respond at least verbally. I
understand that sometimes when you stole a base, he came in with spikes up. There was some revenge
there but at least not overtly. Now when you went to Virginia State, did you play sports there?
CD: I played football, baseball and a I wrestled.
RS: Oh, OK. Well good. And your experience at Virginia State was a good experience?
CD: It was a good experience. I feel that I could have had a more successful career. Hindsight is
always more accurate.
RS: Exactly.
CD: But I thoroughly enjoyed it and I remember the best advice – one of the best pieces of advice I
got/received prior to going to college was a white banker in Radford.
RS: OK.
CD: He told me, he said, “You go there as a football player” and he had never played sports but he
said, “Go there in mid-season form and impress the coaches, that they can't do without you”. Which is
true. And I passed that on to other kids that I worked with.
RS: So you feel like a lot of – for a guy like me that came up through segregated schools and went on
to Virginia State like you did and – I've always felt that a lot of the lessons, especially a lot of the
character lessons that people like you provided for me when I was coming through school, other
people, has served me well as I've gone on to the broader society. Do you share that kind of feeling?
CD: Oh yes, yes. A lot of people, people I've known right after high school. I was trying out for the,
at the time it was the Milwaukee Braves and they had a try-out camp in Lynchburg and where they
would invite players from the area – bring you shoes, your gloves and spikes, and they had about – the
scouts from the particular company – um, team would assemble there and you could go there and
they'd have maybe 200 experienced professional players there to try out and it was really – you had to
be at your physiological peak in order to excel and get the recognition. So, I had gone to one of those
that Pittsburgh had, the Pittsburgh Pirates and then the Milwaukee Braves, but I wasn't successful at
that time. That's when I went on to college.
RS: Now around this time, when you were 20 years old, 1954, the Brown vs Board of Education
decision was handed down and it said that separate was inherently unequal. Do you remember at 20
any impact of that decision? Did you see it in any way affecting or having an impact on your life?
CD: It changed your thinking because you knew there were going to be some changes.
RS: OK.
CD: It kind of sent up a red flag that changes are coming and you think about the dynamics of change.
You knew that there were going to be some new routes to go different places. And it made you aware
of – it prepared you for some changes down the road.

�RS: Yeah, because when you think about your life - you were born in 1934 and in 1947 when you were
13, Jackie Robinson signs, 1948 President Truman desegregates the military, 1954 Brown vs Board of
Education – So a lot of things were going on in your teenage and early adult life that really later had an
impact on opportunities that you had, decisions you were making, etc. Let's see. I also know – 'cause
you were in the military right?
CD: Yes.
RS: What years were you in the military?
CD: I was in the military. I went into the – I entered the service on May 2, 1957. And I was
discharged April 23, 1959. I went in under the 6-year plan. Two years of active duty, two years of
active reserve and two years of stand-by.
RS: I see.
CD: And I did not get my commission at Virginia State.
RS: Yeah, I was going to ask you about ROTC.
CD: I was in ROTC 3 years but I did not get my commission because I thought I was going to get a
baseball contract.
RS: Oh, I see.
CD: And if I had gotten my commission – At that time, you had to make a commitment of up to 5
years in the service and I felt that after 5 years in the service, I would've been too old to have done
anything.
RS: Pursued a career.
CD: Yeah. And when I went in the service, a lot of my friends, they were commissioned officers and I
was a non-commissioned – and so that was a downside of it.
RS: Overall, where did you serve? Did you do overseas duty during that period?
CD: Yes. I did my basic training in Fort Hood, Texas, and I was lucky I did my advance training at
Fort Lee, Virginia, at Quarter Masters, right next door to Virginia State. And then after that, I went to
Fort Dicks and we were shipped to Germany.
RS: OK.
CD: And I was over there for 18 ½ months and I taught at the Army Education Center, Math and
Science while I was over there - And officiate ballgames over there. And I played baseball and softball
and we played a lot of flag football. It was a good experience. Then I went on a service club tour and I
had a chance to see that part of the world.
RS: I see.
CD: Europe, Asia and Africa. Travelled around on the service club tour. It was a good lesson within
itself.
RS: It sounds like you a lot in 2 years.
CD: Yeah, I did. Well, you know, we were over there and didn't have a family so – Amsterdam and
caught the World's Fair in Brussells, Belgium and went to Copenhagan, Denmark and a lot of those
places. I went to Paris, France and Nancy. I travelled around. It was a good experience.
RS: Now as an African-American man in Europe in the late 1950s, how do you feel like you were
treated?
CD: You got mixed reactions.
RS: OK.
CD: I tell you a little joke we had – at the World's Fair in Brussells, Belgium, there was a South
African official, a white South African – he was at the World's Fair and we were there. We had on our
civilian clothes. He asked us where were we from. We didn't tell him we were in the Army, we told
him we were exchange students. (both laughing) We were trying to up our stance 'cause the military
was a very important part because without the military, we wouldn't have peace, you know. So we
were kind of – told a little fib. We told the gentleman that we were exchange students. He was nice.
We were talking about the different situations in the country and things like that. It was a good

�dialogue.
RS: OK, yeah, it sounds like it.
CD: And later as we concluded the conversation then we explained to him that we were GI's. (both
laughing) He enjoyed it.
RS: Well, good. Now when you were teaching in the military, you taught in integrated classes
obviously?
CD: Yes. These were gentlemen, soldiers who had not finished their high school diploma so we taught
Math and Science so they could finish and get their GED.
RS: Sure.
0.16.47.6
CD: So we taught it during the day and it was good duty, in the classroom and everything. They called
it the Army Education Center.
RS: OK. It sounds like it was good preparation for your future career.
CD: Yes.
RS: So you went on and you got a Master's at Radford University? Now what year was that?
CD: That was – (interruption by someone coming in the room) I have to do a little reflecting. Let me
see. That was in 1970 'cause I had to have that in order to secure the principalship of Loudon.
RS: So that was in Administration?
CD: Administration and Guidance.
RS: So when you got back from – well, they have one other question on here – Did anyone else in
your family attend college.
CD: My daughter, my sisters, they attended college for 1 or 2 years. Then my brother finished college.
He finished at Virginia State also. He was the editor of the school newspaper when he was there.
RS: Oh really?
CD: Yeah. That's my younger brother.
RS: OK, alright. So, you and your brother were really the first out of your immediate family to finish
college?
CD: Yes.
RS: I know that was a major accomplishment.
CD: Yeah, it was. I was delighted for that. I was so glad that I was able to do that.
RS: As you were coming up, did your parents emphasize going to college or, you know, a lot of black
families, again, even when I was growing up, there was emphasis in some families on going to college.
There was some emphasis on, you know, finishing high school and going to work. In your family, what
was the situation?
CD: It was a little of both. Primarily, my mother and father gave me an opportunity to kind of find our
own path and then they would support us. I was – I always wanted to go into college and I wanted to
try to – as the old Army “Be the best that I could be”. So that was – My father was a railroad man. He
worked for Norfolk and Western for 51 years and my mother was a housewife. And my father ran a
barber shop and he was a farmer. He worked all the time. (Both laughing)
RS: He was multitasking before the term came about.
CD: Yes and he was good at carpentry, brick masonry and he had a cute little habit – He had me do a
project and if it wasn't done up to his standards, he wouldn't say a word to me. He would just go redo it
himself. And I would get the message.
RS: Sure.
CD: A nice silent treatment and it was a good learning lesson for me – a good approach to use in life.
Instead of getting emotionally upset, you know. It was a learning tool and I used that same technique a
lot in school work with kids.
RS: Sure, well that's a good way to teach as opposed to getting really upset and fussing and
complaining.

�CD: Blood pressure up.
RS: That's right. (both laughing) Well now, I find that interesting – your sisters had an opportunity to
go to college as well because at the time, a lot of black women that I was familiar with didn't. The
families didn't encourage them to go to college so that sounds like there was a lot of focus in your
household in education. Continuing that theme, so you got out of the Army in 1959. You graduated
from Virginia State. You had taught in the military. Did you then pursue a teaching career?
CD: Yes.
RS: OK, where was that?
CD: Amherst County. Amherst, Virginia.
RS: And how long were you there?
CD: I was there for 2 years.
RS: OK. And then – now I know you got to Addison High School in 1966 because I got to Addison
High School in 1966 and you were my gym teacher so I know that. So between 1961/62 and 1966,
where were you?
CD: I was in Montgomery County. I went back home, living in Radford and I was the principal of
French (??) Elementary School in Montgomery County, right on 460, right out from where
Christiansburg High School is built now. Real small black school and the Quakers had given that to the
black kids for their education. And that's how that was exceptional. That was my first principalship.
And was principal there for 5 years. And I would come back home. I was just as happy as I could be
and I got the principalship.
RS: Alright, OK. And then, of course, I have to ask you now what year did you and Mrs. Day get
married?
CD: That was in 1961.
RS: 1961. OK. And then, you left there and came to Addison, you came to Roanoke in 1966 right?
CD: They integrated in Montgomery County and the Superintendent had told all the teachers where
they were going – the janitor, the cook and everybody but they hadn't told me where I was going. And
so there was a little period of uncertainty. So I decided I had better try to find – because I may be
receiving something I may not want and all the other principalships in the county had been filled and
that's when I applied in Roanoke. I heard there was an opening and so I applied and am very thankful
that I got the job.
RS: So now you're coming from Christiansburg and Amherst County, more rural places, and you come
to the Mighty Bulldogs. And I know you were a guidance counselor over there at Addison as well,
right?
CD: Yes.
RS: What was it like coming to Addison High School? It was huge, all black, sometimes unruly high
school. (laughing) What was that like?
CD: What – Let me back up a little bit now. When I first came out of the Army, I applied for Roanoke
City 'cause coach Price, the football coach, was leaving to go to Fairfax County. And I applied for the
coaching job 'cause I had just gotten out of the Army and I thought I knew all about football and
everything. But Miss Gibney (??) who was one of the first female Superintendents in the state. She
told me, she said, “Charles, you don't have any high school coaching experience. Even though you
may be very capable of doing it”. She was very sweet. She said, “Roanoke is a football town, so you
need a little experience”. That's how I got the job at Amherst because she had hired the coach from
Amberst to come to Roanoke. So that was a little – I'm going back a little bit. So when I came – When
the job opened up in Roanoke then she hired me and that was 5 years later. And so I got the job. And
so when I came to Roanoke, I was delighted. Because Addison was a big school and Roanoke was a
large city. Born in Radford, about 10,000 people – Roanoke 6 figures. It was a step up, you know?
RS: Sure, sure.
CD: And so I started off as a Physical Education teacher, Junior Class sponsor and assistant football,

�assistant baseball – I mean assistant football, baseball coach and JV basketball. I was in hog heaven.
RS: That's right. (both laughing) So now, from 1966 and then I heard you say you finished your
Master's at Radford in 1970 so you could _____ (??). So Addison was closing down or being scaled
back to a middle school I guess in the early '70s. But, you left in '70 to become the principal at
Loudon?
CD: Yes. What happened was I was 2 years at Addison coaching and then Miss Georgia Brown who
was the guidance coordinator left to go into the Upper Bound Program at Roanoke College. So that
created an opening in guidance. Well, a lot of the staff members were hesitant to apply for the job
'cause they knew Georgia was coming back.
RS: I see.
CD: So me being young, I tossed my hat in the ring. So I got the Guidance Coordinator position at
Addison. Which I really enjoyed being a Guidance Coordinator of a large high school. So it was a
golden opportunity and I was young enough not to fear her coming back, sliding back. And so I got
that job and so my 3rd year at Addison, I was a Guidance Coordinator. I thoroughly enjoyed that.
RS: OK. So then you went to Loudon as – That was your first principalship?
CD: First principalship.
RS: And how long were you at Loundon?
CD: One year because then they closed it.
RS: OK. Alright. And then you went to CD: I went to Addison. I was sitting there at my desk one day. My secretary told me that Dr. Alcorn
was on the phone. So I went and I got the phone and Dr. Alcorn said, “Charles, I want to appoint you
principal of Addison. Would you accept?” And I told him enthusiastically, “Yes”. And he said, “OK”.
So we concluded that conversation. I sat down at my desk and I kind of pinched myself. I said, “This
little country boy has got the Addison principalship”. My first principalship of a high school. I was
delighted. And in those days, integration was taking place in the state of Virginia. There were very few
black principals, high school principals and I was delighted. You know, I was among the few. And I
think, at that time, I don't think north of, I mean west of Richmond, I don't remember very many being
north of Richmond. There were some from that point on, you know, in the eastern part of Virginia. So,
I was delighted. I had to pinch myself. I couldn't believe it. I didn't want him to change his mind.
(both laughing)
RS: Well that was a pretty quick ascension. I mean, yeah, I mean, you had come here in 1966 and by
1971, you were the principal of the school, that's pretty fast rise.
CD: I think about all the other people that they could've appointed. That's the reason why I was
grateful. 'Cause I'm aware there are a lot of talented people in the area.
RS: Well, maybe you – getting back to the Jackie Robinson analogy, maybe it was all of your qualities
that allowed the superintendent to say, “Charles – I want Charles Day for this position”.
CD: Well, maybe so. I was really happy with it.
RS: Now as principal of Addison High School, you began to interact a lot with – Or did you interact
with a lot of the principals, at Patrick Henry, Jefferson and Flemming who were your white colleagues?
CD: Yes. Well, what happened was it was a challenging period because they were integrating –
integration in Roanoke City and they had – at first they thought they were going to close Addison.
They were going to make it a vocational, regional high school where they would have vocation and
academic offerings. So myself and a couple of the central office people, we went to Henrico County to
observe a school meeting that particular description. And then, we came back with the plans of
implementing that at Addison because the judge had ordered we were going to integrate. Well, what
happened, we worked on that and 2 weeks before school opened, a judge gave a decree that stated that
Addison was going to open as a comprehensive high school. So, we had to go back to the drawing
board and so we opened as a comprehensive high school. So there was a change in philosophy and so
we opened as a comprehensive high school. Prior to that, interaction with – the question you asked

�interacting with the other high school principals, the principals at Patrick Henry, Jefferson and
Flemming and Addison, we met to decide – the judge had ordered that there be a 75% white and 25%
black and so we had to appropriate the staff accordingly. I was the new kid on the block and so they
were shifting people. So where we had a predominant black staff at Addison, we were the major
changed station. So we had to go to 75% white faculty, 25% black faculty. So we were shifting people
around to get ready for school opening. So, that's how we had a lot of interacting with the other
principals.
0.30.05.1
RS: See, so when you were – the first year you were the principal of Addison, 75% of the faculty was
white?
CD: Yes.
RS: Oh, OK. Did that raise any types of management or administrative challenges for you?
CD: Yeah, it did because there were new people and then the people coming in, they were new to the
situation. It was a former all-black high school and they were coming and so, there was pressure on
them, adjustments. So you had to look at it from – there was a lot of pressure on everybody.
RS: But you guys go through it OK?
CD: Yes. And most of all, like I told the kids at the reunion, that the truly great Americans were those
little kids who were going to the integrated schools.
RS: Exactly.
CD: You know the parents and leaders, they were home. It was those little kids in a black and white
school, that was the pressure. They're the ones who had the pressure. So we had to make the most of
it.
RS: OK. Now, how long were you at Addison?
CD: For 3 years.
RS: For 3 years. And then, what was your next position?
CD: Well, they decided that they were going to close 2 high schools, that they didn't need 4 in
Roanoke City. And that meant that they were going to close Jefferson and Addison and have Flemming
and Patrick Henry. So the superintendent offered me the principalship of Woodrow Wilson Junior High
School or stay at Addison Junior High School or go to Flemming as its co-principal.
RS: OK.
CD: Or go to Ruffner as principal. Ruffner Junior High – Ruffner was a new high school, airconditioned, just had been built 3 years. So, I chose Ruffner. I didn't want to go to Flemming 'cause I
felt it was – it would be hard on us trying to be co-principals of a high school. Woodrow Wilson was a
little out of the area and I didn't want to stay at Addison 'cause it would've been a reflection on that they
changed the school. So then I chose Ruffner. And I went there and stayed for 12 years.
RS: 12 years, that's right. Well good. We'll come back to more of your education and your
professional history. We've covered that pretty well. There's a heading here – Describe your home life,
for instance, and I would assume this is when you were growing up – Did you gather around the radio
in the evening as a family? Do you remember when you got a telephone, refrigerator, this type thing?
CD: Yes, we uh, its hard for the kids to realize, radio was the media. That's how you listened to you
shows. I tell you a cute little thing my older brother used to do. They used to have a radio show called
Inner Sanctum, squeaky doors and it was kind of like a mystery and ghosts and everything. So, he
turned off the lights and we would listen. (both laughing)
RS: Oh, OK.
CD: It was kind of silly when you really think about it but it was entertainment. We'd listen to that
radio show. It was just tradition. When the show came on, we'd turn off the lights and we kids, little
siblings, be around. (laughing) Now that I'm older, it was cute.
RS: You created your own ambiance.
CD: That's true.

�RS: Scary program, cut the lights off, it was like being at the movies.
CD: Everybody shaking. (both laughing heartily) But it was 3 of us, 3 girls and 3 boys and we got
along very well and my youngest was my brother who lives in Blacksburg, you know. His son's a
basketball coach at Blacksburg High School. They just won the region golf tournament at Blacksburg
High School. So it was 3 of us. We got along very well and it was a lot of fun. We now reminisce
about the good old days, you know. Of course now, my oldest brother and my oldest sister have passed
and – little side line – I told my 2 sisters and my brother, “I'm the oldest living one” and I said, “We've
got to reverse that order”. (both laughing)
RS: You don't want to be next in line. (both laughing)
CD: I don't want to be next in line. They enjoy that little family humor you know.
0.34.24.3
RS: Well, you know my father like your father worked for the Norfolk and Western. He worked 42
years. One of the interesting things that I always remember about our home life with my father was
that, and like your father, he worked at least until I was about 12 or 13 because there were 3 of us and
children going to college. And my mother worked. But he also worked a second job. Most of the men
that worked for the railroad worked at least one other job. And so I was thinking about this question
because usually, by the time my father got home and sat down for a few minutes, ate dinner, he was
going to bed because he had to get back up the next morning and start the routine over. And so, our
primary time to be together, I guess, was dinner. And, of course, I guess, as I think back about my
father, the guy was really busy. He never complained about it but he was a very busy man 'cause he
always had something to do and that type thing and so as far as like, you know, when I was doing
things growing up, he was always working. And I heard you talk about your father working for the
railroad, being a carpenter, and being a farmer as well. When you were playing sports, did your father
and mother have an opportunity to attend your sporting events and things like that?
0.35.53.1
CD: Well, not as much as I would've liked. My father worked like he did. I always wanted him to see
the game. I think he saw one or two games. See, he worked the midnight shift at the railroad from 11
at night to 7 in the morning. And he was always going and ran a barber shop on Thursday, Friday and
Saturday. And in those days, they worked 7 days. A lot of people are not aware of it. 7 days on the
railroad, you know. And its something. Let me have a quick little interruption, for me, your father is a
good man. He was a very nice man.
RS: Well, they worked and they were really – I know as far as my father was concerned, they felt
because they had railroad jobs that they were very grateful for those jobs because a lot of the other
black men didn't have jobs and didn't have insurance and that type thing but they worked and that was
the whole – My father was never late for work. In fact, he was very proud of the fact that he worked
for the railroad for 42 years and he only missed 17 days and so they didn't miss work. They really
valued those positions and so a lot of the things that one would think about – I played sports at Monroe
Junior High School, but my father never got to see me play. He wouldn't ask off. I mean, I would
come home and tell him about the games and he'd be happy for me but as far as getting off from work –
In fact, one of the things he told all 3 of us was not to ever get in trouble at school so that they would
have to call down to the railroad that he would have to get off. And I guess just before you became
principal over at Addison, Julian Moore was there. And one time, we did something that Mr. Moore
told us we shouldn't do. We rented a bus and went to a football game and he had told us not to do it.
So, I'll never forget it. He called us over the intercom, 3 of us, to come to the office that morning and
we went in there and he told us he was going to suspend us for 2 weeks. Now, Mr. Phillips would only
suspend you for 3 days so 2 weeks was like, “Wait a minute!”.
0.38.08.9
CD: A lifetime. (both laughing)
RS: Yeah, that's a lifetime even for guys that weren't that excited about school. But then, as the added

�touch, he said, “And Reggie, I'm gonna call your father. He's gonna have to come over here”. I said,
“Call my mother. Please!”. He called him but he didn't kill me when he got over there but that was –
They really valued those jobs and those men worked and they – My father's thing was I'm gonna get
enough rest at night so I can get up and start this routine the next day and I never heard him complain
about it. He felt like that he was providing for his family and he was trying to – Obviously, he set a, he
and my mother 'cause she works at a tremendous work ethic and the family was very important. And
anything you did to distract from the family, that would really get you ostracized. There wasn't a whole
lot of extra so everything had to be used and you had to act like you had some sense out here. So, let's
see, they've got a question here, “Do you remember when your family got a telephone and
refrigerator”?
CD: Yes, I remember because I remember – See we lived in Radford. To our rear, about 100 yards,
was New River and there was a little creek behind there leading to the swimming pool. So if the New
River ever flooded, we lived at the end of the street next to the funeral home, and we would get flooded
on two sides, the rear and the side. So we lived there and the ice plant was right across the railroad.
The railroad track was in front of us about 50 yards. And across the railroad track was the ice plant.
RS: I see.
0.39.58.6
CD: So it wasn't too difficult. If we missed the ice truck when they delivered ice, we could just walk
across the railroad track and get ice. So I remember the ice box and you had to get it and you had to
chop it up and everything and we were delighted when we got the refrigerator. You know what I mean?
It was amazing. And the dairy products were delivered and I noticed an article in the paper where
they're starting a new _____________ (??) (both talking) So, yes, I recall that and I remember one of
my chores every morning, I would have to get up and start the fire so my mother could come in and
cook breakfast. Sometimes at night, I would bank the fire, so that, I mean, put the paper and everything
in so I'd have a short cut. 'Cause I was the first one up so that was one of my chores.
RS: And when you got to school early, you had to start the fire in the stove.
CD: Yeah, so you had a lot of chores in those days.
RS: Exactly. A telephone – when you – Do you remember when you didn't have a phone at home?
CD: Vaguely. Yes, but I do remember when we didn't. I remember, I even remember our old
telephone number 2-0-0-6. But you know, party line, you know.
RS: I was going to ask you because everybody had a party line because they were cheaper, right?
CD: That's true. That's true.
RS: Now this young lady wouldn't know what a party line is but you could be having a conversation
on the phone and another party cuts in.
CD: Yeah, sure. That was a common thing.
RS: That was very common and it was cheaper than a private line. Everybody I knew had party lines.
So you could be talking, Coach Day and I could be talking and you could pick up and hear our entire
conversation. And even become a part of it if you wanted to. (laughing) I was so excited when we got
a private line, I didn't know what to do. The question number 11 here is, “Did you and your family, and
your friends I would assume, sit on the porch in the evenings in the summer”?
CD: Air conditioning.
RS: That was your air conditioning.
CD: The front porch. Yeah, that's true. That was it. Sunday, Saturday and then you'd – That was
where you got your air conditioning and it was a social area. You'd sit there and we could watch the
trains go by. Way back then, when I was a kid, they had a passenger train and the number was 42 and it
would come through Radford around 11 o'clock at night and you'd see all those people in the cars.
They'd be traveling from one part going to New York or Washington and they'd wave. They'd see us
little kids, you know, things like that, you know, and they'd be – You know its amazing and you could
just check your watch...

�RS: By that train. Let's see, we've talked about chores. You banked the fire. You started the fire in the
morning. You cut ice for the ice box. Any other chores around your house or neighborhood that CD: When I was young, I used to go to downtown to the grocery store to pick up groceries for my
mother. She was a housewife and my dad was working. So, I was the main one who, if she needed
something, I'd RS: Walk to the store.
CD: Walk to the store. And I remember a cute little experience I had. I was going to, it was about a ½
mile and we'd walk down the railroad tracks and they had coal trains and cinders. I got a cinder in my
eye and I was in the store trying to get it out, you know. I walked in the store and a young lady, a
young white nurse was in the store and she told me, she said, told me how to get it out, how to make
tears. How to rotate, you know. She told me, “Blow your nose. Rotate your eye around
counterclockwise and blow your nose, cycle 3 times, alternate”. And said it would create enough fluid
liquid in your eye to wash the cinder out. I remember that always from when I was a child.
RS: Oh, really.
CD: I never knew her name, I would never recognize her. She told, she said, “That's how you can get
little particles that get into your eye because” RS: Oh, good.
CD: Its amazing.
RS: I've never heard that before.
CD: She told me that and it works and RS: It stuck with you. (both laughing)
CD: And I was just a little boy.
RS: Coach Day, question 13, “What were the family stories that were passed down in your family from
generation to generation?”
CD: Well, there were a lot of them. Of course, I had my mother that was a part of about 12 siblings.
And they had their respective families and they would always come and visit. I had an uncle who
worked around the families that had horses and fairgrounds where they would have show horses. He
would always have his stories about the horses and which one was the most valuable horse, you know,
the most talented horse. You know and everything like that. And then I had other uncles who worked
for the railroad. They would travel down from Radford to Roanoke to work at the railroad yard and
they had to leave 3 and 4 o'clock in the morning so they'd get down there on time. So, they would have
stories relating to that. I had uncles and aunts who lived in West Virginia. So there was a dialogue.
There was always something going on.
RS: Interesting you would mention that because, and I mentioned about my father being on time to
work and I probably drive my children crazy about being punctual but there was something that I know
that I got mega-doses of, “You've always got to be on time, Reggie. You've always got to be on time”.
Was that something that you heard a lot about?
0.46.20.4
CD: Yeah. I mean, it was a must because you know they would let you know, “We don't have to wait
for you”. That was driven into me.
RS: That's something that my children – they have a hard – I guess it shows how much society has
changed. Because, again, as an African-American, every institution I was in, from High Street Baptist
Church to school to getting to your class, to getting – getting everywhere – punctuality.
CD: That's right.
RS: And it prepares you, I mean it was a preparation for going out into the broader society. And it was
almost like, you know, the broader society could never say you were late for anything. So, you were
always there. And if there is anything – I love my children to death, but they seem like to me that they
are the biggest procrastinators. I mean, its just like, you know, they get places but they don't – like I
was here 20 minutes early this morning. Now, my son, if he was doing this interview, he would get

�here 5 minutes to 9, right and he would be on time but it was almost, to use a term I've learned since
I've gotten older, it was almost this compulsion.
CD: Yes.
0.47.37.5
RS: But I think it reflected – black people, at least, it felt like it reflected on your character if you
weren't on time or if you weren't even a little early for things.
CD: That's true. It was such a stigma attached to it if you were late. And you didn't want to be a part
of that.
RS: That's right, exactly. They have a question on here, “Did your family have stories about memories
or anything about the Civil War and slavery?”.
CD: Of course, the concept and the world as related to slavery, that was always uncommon. You could
be talking about – what effect this would have on it. Not – My dad never liked to bring in the negative
because he was afraid it would cloud our thinking, you know. You'd have too much on your shoulders
and you couldn't concentrate. I remember one time, we went to Cleveland to visit some of my wife's
relatives and they were talking about this candidate who had won the presidency and some of them
were not in favor, you know. They had another favorite candidate. So the word was, I said,
“Regardless of who wins, he's your president. And you have to -” The key to you success is what you
do not what he does. You know what I mean? And I remember when I was principal at Ruffner, a
delivery man came in one day after an election, a presidential election, and he said, “Charles, did your
candidate win?” I didn't say who. I said, “My president – my man won”. Because that's my
philosophy. And that kind of was the philosophy of the family. Whoever got in, that's your man and no
need worrying about it. (both laughing) He's in there! Just make the most of it. Don't sit up there and
agonize for 4 or 5 years and worrying about something you have no control over.
RS: I think that was the general attitude and I think we talked – I know in my family, we – there wasn't
a – like you said, I think things were so dire that nobody wanted to talk about it, you know. Because it
would just discourage you and so I found that blacks of your generation and previous generations had a
lot of faith and a lot of confidence in this country and that things were going to improve for us. And,
they really thought of themselves as Americans. And so a lot of the, almost what some would consider
anti-American sentiment, complaining about things that happened in the past is a lot more common
with my generation and on than it was with your generation. Because, I can't think of – when I think
about this question, I can't think of anybody really having any real negative attitudes about slavery or
discrimination. The whole emphasis was, “Well, its here and you've got to do something about it. Do
the best you can do”. And people had a lot more hope and confidence in many ways in making
progress than many of the young kids do today. You hear 'em talk and I know you've been around kids
in school a lot more than I have but it is somewhat hard to believe the attitudes they have given all the
opportunities CD: That's right. That's right.
RS: That are available. I mean, you would think it was 1920 the way some of 'em talk sometimes and
they can go anywhere and go to any school, just opportunities – society is more accepting. So, its
really interesting. I think a lot of that does come from that – not using history as an experience but
almost as a cop-out not to do.
CD: I remember when I was in the Army traveling around to different countries on those Service Club
tours and you would see the situations in some of those other countries, you have a fond appreciation
for this country. You know what I mean? You really do. Now, another philosophy that I use, if I run
into a person who has a hangup about me, my color, my weight and my wealth, I balance that out – I'm
gonna run into about 90% of the people who do not have a problem.
RS: That's right. (laughing)
CD: So, I'm not gonna let that 1 or 2 distract me and put me on a detour.
RS: Exactly.

�CD: So I just chalk that up as par for the course. You know what I mean?
RS: Well, I think that's the way to look at it. I really do. And that way, that one person doesn't upset
you.
CD: That's true.
0.52.38.3
RS: OK, well we have questions here, we've got about 5 minutes with Coach Day left. Do you have –
We talked about Mrs. Day. We know you served in the military. I know you have 2 children, neither
one served in the military, right?
CD: No.
RS: Let's see, community – When you moved to Roanoke in 1966, what was your general impression
of Roanoke, the black community, the broader community, things like that?
CD: I had a very favorable impression of 'em. I thought about the number of doctors, lawyers,
professional people they had, you know, in Roanoke. It was a new experience for me because I had
come from a small city in Radford. And then down here, you see all the black hospital and the number
of doctors and lawyers and then it had a lot of good jobs and everything. It was a very positive
experience.
RS: OK, good. What about this library? Do you remember the first time you knew the Gainsboro
library was here or did people talk about it when you got here?
CD: Yes. I was – I used to come down to this area a lot because that was a focal point and even before
I moved to Roanoke, we used to come down to the American Legion Auditorium when the top
performers would come here and then I had some friends – 'cause when I went to high school at
Christiansburg Institute, we used to play Addison in football. Then I had some friends here in Roanoke
and we would come down and go dancing with them. We'd go to the train station. They had a train
station, you could go there, you could be served the food you wanted and everything. So, I had good
vibrations about Roanoke.
0.54.45.1
RS: There's a question on here, Coach Day, “Who were your role models when you were growing up
and also when you got to Roanoke”? Who did you sort of look at as a role model?
CD: Well, I've always liked people. I would see these – Don't think I'm materialistic, but these people
that had all this wealth – As a little boy, it was something I always wanted. I haven't achieved it yet and
I'm ready for the graveyard. (both laughing) But, I still have that as a hidden goal, a hidden agenda.
And so I maybe mocked those people who were very successful and I respected those people who were
trying to be successful. Like one gentleman told me, a very successful business man, he said, “When
you go into business, you are talking to people who are successful. You are also talking to those who
are not successful. You can learn from both.” And so, I guess, I was amazed at how the like the
families that had all the drug stores, the president and CEOs of the big banks and the big firms, you
know what I mean? The college presidents – I remember when I had a hidden agenda, I wanted to be a
president of a small black college. That was one of my goals. I never achieved it but you know – I
never achieved it, you know what I mean? – but that was a – I suppose if I had – but that was one of my
-.
RS: And the men who, most of those people were men, they CD: Inspired you. Yeah.
RS: Yeah. Well, those are good role models. I mean, when you see people achieve in areas that you
didn't know people were achieving in.
CD: That's true.
RS: I mean they can inspire you 'cause you think, “I wonder. How did that guy do that?”.
CD: That's true. And I would ask 'em. Not trying to get personal. Not trying to get nosy. But you
could learn something from 'em. That's one thing that makes American great, they would talk with
you. They would pass some good helpful hints. I remember when I had surgery one time – a little side

�line – I was reading this book – I carried it – You know like when you go in for surgery, you carry a lot
of reading materials and I was reading this book about this agent, this Russian agent who had come to
America. He was a double agent and one thing he said, “You learn from all – One thing about
America, people will talk with you and they will tell you things, sometimes even personal”. And he
said even the agents say they gave information on this factory or this thing.
RS: Just give you the information. (both laughing)
CD: And you learn a lot. And I remember when I was at Virginia Western as a counselor for a couple
of years. I was teaching an orientation class and then a How-To-Study class and I did my research and
I always told my kids, I said, you have 2 ears and 1 mouth and use them accordingly. (both laughing)
RS: That's a good advantage. In closing, is there anything else that we didn't cover that you would like
to share with us about your life, your experiences?
CD: I was on the school board for 11 years and 9 months, a beautiful experience. I felt because I had
taught for all those years and had been in education that I could make a contribution so I appreciate the
opportunities that Roanoke City gave me to serve on the board. I enjoyed working with the kids and
teachers and everything and their parents and that just sort-of added a little icing on the career.
RS: Yeah. You found that experience very fulfilling?
CD: Yes, it was. I learned quickly that when you're on a committee, you can't pull things through
unless you have majority vote. You can influence things. Sometimes more than others. It was a
challenge. But I enjoyed that.
RS: Well, Charles Day, I've known you for the past 40 years and you have been a good influence in my
life and I'm glad I was able to conduct this interview with you.
CD: Well, it was my pleasure and like I said before, I remember your very sweet mother. She was
really a nice lady and a beautiful lady. I remember – a little sideline – I was principal of French
Elementary School and I had a teacher, Miss Dowell (??). And my mother came by the school one day
to visit me and Miss Dowell told me, said, “Mr. Day, You and Albert have some beautiful mothers”.
She was talking about herself. (both laughing) That's certainly how – what she was. She was very
attractive. And your father was really nice, quiet, a very quiet gentleman. Tall, he was about 6'3”
wasn't he?
RS: Yeah, 6'4”.
CD: I knew he was tall.
RS: Actually, my son is big like my father.
CD: He is? He played basketball, didn't he?
RS: Yes sir, he played basketball and a lot of the men – My father went, lived in Salem so he was a big
basketball star up at Carver (??) and he and Irving Canaday (??) were always competitors and they
were also good friends but this was after my father had died and Malique (??) was about 14 or 15 years
old and they had the court basketball camp over at Addison and Irving Canaday (??) walked in there
one day and looked at me and looked at my son and he said, “If that's not Elmer Thomas' child”. And
he does. Now, every time I look at Malique, he favors my father more and more every day.
CD: Its amazing. Small world isn't it? You've done a quite a good job. I'm proud of you.
RS: Well, thank you Coach Day, I appreciate that. Alright, thank you sir.
CD: Pleasure seeing you. Thank you young lady. [Mr. Day Addressing Alicia Sell who was running
the recording equipment.]

                    <text>Interviewee: Lewis Peery
Interviewer: Mary Bishop
Transcriber: Andrew Sterling
It is October 12, 2006 and Mr. Lewis William Peery is being interviewed at the Gainsboro Library.
MB: Mr. Peery, where and when were you born?
LP: I was born in Pearisburg, Virginia, on December 23, 1920.
MB: Have long have you lived in Gainsboro?
LP: I've lived 58 years in this area. I moved to Roanoke in May, 1948, and I've resided at 508
Rutheford Avenue all those years.
MB: Tell me something about how you came to live at that address.
LP: I moved to Roanoke because I met a certain young lady through my brother who had also married
her sister. We started courting and I decided that what I wanted/we wanted to do is to get married. And
prior to that, I worked at Celanese Corporation between Narrows and Pearisburg. So I left that position
there because we wanted to get married in Roanoke and I came and I began to work at the VA Medical
Center where I worked for 4 years. I moved in May of '48 and in June, 1948, we were married and that
was a happy occasion for me to move from Pearisburg to Roanoke and get married. We moved to a
home there at 508 that my aunt lived. She lived by herself. She was a nurse and she did practical
duty/special duty. So we lived with her and she lived with us until she passed at 92. So, I've have a
wonderful experience living in the neighborhood. My wife and I are the last two in the whole
Rutheford Avenue – There are 8 blocks on Rutheford Avenue and we are the last two right now that
was there when we moved there some 58 years ago. And we're still young. Did I say that?
MB: Tell me about your parents and your brothers and sisters.
LP: My mother was a homebound. My father worked for Lease and McVitty Tannery Company most
of his life. There were 3 tanneries, one in Pearisburg, one in Salem and one in Buena Vista. And there
were 10 children in our family and I was the second child. My older brother is deceased. Its only 6 of
us left, 2 girls and 4 boys. That's the family. And in my wife's family, there were 13 in her family.
There were 9 girls and 4 boys. All of 'em are deceased except 3 daughters, and my wife is one of those
3.
MB: And tell me about the marriage between your brother and Mrs. Peery's sister.
LP: My brother - His wife and another lady here in Roanoke graduated from Addison High School.
They went on to Virginia Union and graduated. So he was courting my wife's sister. So I met my wife
through them. So that's how we were connected during that period of time. Of course, they married in
1946 and they had 8 children and, of course, my wife always felt like those 8 children were hers too.
So that's been the closest of the family during the better years. And it kinda tied us – We were
connected through that type of program for many years.
MB: And you still have extended family members living nearby, do you not?
0.05.01.8
LP: Yes, still here in Roanoke. See, my wife lived in Cave Springs. That was her home place out
there. I still have nieces and nephews living here in Roanoke. Another thing, most all of my brother's
children are away from the city except one. But he lived in Salem. They moved to Salem before we
moved to Roanoke. They moved to Salem in 1946. We moved to Roanoke in 19 – I moved in
Roanoke in 1948.
MB: And just for the record, I wanted to get your aunt's name because she was probably an important
person in Gainsboro.
LP: When I moved to Roanoke in 1948, I had an aunt that I visited a lot. I had other relatives here in
the city but she was kind of a special aunt. She was a registered nurse. There were not many registered
nurses, blacks, back in those days. And of course some of them worked at Burrell Hospital but she did

�private duty all the time. She was beginning to get aged but one thing about her, what she would do, if
any of her brothers or sisters became ill, she would stop her work and go wait on them. And she came
to Pearisburg. See, her sister was my grandmother also. That was a tie there. And when my
grandmother came here, she would come to Pearisburg and wait on her too. So we just felt something
– a closeness there as well as she had two brothers here in this city. They carried mail just like I did
during a period of time. So there was a closeness of family relationship here in the City of Roanoke for
me so I wasn't lost when I moved here.
MB: And what was your aunt's name?
LP: Her name was Annie C. Taylor and she died at the age of 92. And we looked after her during that
period of time after we moved here. I can't remember the date that she died but she died at the age of
92.
MB: Can you describe your house for us which was her house too?
LP: My house is the 7 room house, 4 rooms downstairs, dining room, living room, kitchen and what I
call – It used to be a bedroom, its my den now. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs. One thing about our
house, its a house that has the boards on it. Its not a brick house and its not a complete basement. The
houses on that street – There are a lot of houses in this area I'm sure they didn't have a full basement.
We didn't have a full basement. I dug out a basement enough to have washrooms and things down
there and be able to put a little shop down there. We've worked on it over the years and updated it and
everything 'cause back then, we had a stove in the dining room and that's where we got our heat from.
So actually we had to do a whole lot of remodeling in order to put in a furnace and washing machines
and different things in the basement. So we remodeled a lot during the years.
MB: Do you have any idea when it was built?
LP: If we've been there 58 years, I think that house probably – I'm just gonna make a guess,
somewhere approximately 80 or 90 years ago when the neighborhood was developed back in those
days. A lot of the neighborhoods were developed back then. And another fact about that, you have to
understand what happened here. In this area, in the Gainsboro area – Am I talking too far ahead of
you?
MB: No, that's fine.
LP: By carrying mail, I learned a lot about Gainsboro. You see back then, they used numbers. Gilmer
Avenue was 4th Avenue. Patton Avenue was 5th Avenue. Harrison Avenue was 6th Avenue. Rutheford
Avenue was 7th Avenue. Madison Avenue was 8th Avenue. But when you cross – You see this is a
Northwest - When you cross Jefferson Street, as I've told you before, things kinda change but you had
approximately the same numbers down in Northeast. They went by 9th Avenue, 10th Avenue and then
you had an East Avenue in Northeast that kinda changed everything a little bit. But Rutheford Avenue
in Northwest is the same as Rutheford Avenue in Northeast. So that's the way the city was scheduled or
made up back then.
MB: In those days, were the numbered streets – Was Rutheford Avenue called both 7th Avenue and
Rutheford or did it just change?
0.09.54.3
LP: No, it was all 7th Avenue. But see the post office, when they came in, that was confusing to the
mail carrier. If you didn't kinda live around, it was – of course you had the same numbers. Harrison
Avenue same number as Harrison Avenue – So they decided that what they would do is they would
change and get rid of the numbers and then they would come back. I think they reused some like
Rutheford Avenue but after that, they stopped using Rutheford Avenue. And when they brought out the
telephone directories, then everything – They changed everything to Madison Avenue, Gilmer Avenue,
Wells Avenue, just like over here. What's over here now? Wells Avenue was 3rd Avenue I believe but
its Wells Avenue now. But everything changed. This area changed a great deal back then.
MB: Back to your house, out in the yard, did you have a garden?
LP: Never had a garden. Didn't have room for one. Kinda had a little garden out at my wife's father's

�house but I had a special garden and my special garden was down on the market. (laughing) I went to
the market all the time. (laughing) And that was a big thing back then. You could ride the bus for 7
cents/10 cents, so everybody went to the market. My aunt went to the market. That was a big thing. I
was just tickled to death over that when I moved here to go to the market to get my vegetables. OK, I
better stop talking hadn't I? Go ahead. (chuckle)
MB: Tell me about the kind of work that your family did.
LP: My mother didn't work at all. My father worked for Lease and McVitty Tannery Company and
they had one in Pearisburg. They had one in Salem and they had one in Buena Vista. When you talk
about Lease and McVitty Tannery Company, what they did, they processed leather. Cowhides would
come in and they carried the cowhides to the plant and, of course, they had boards where they would
scrape the hair off the hide. And then what they would do, they put the hide in a vat and then they
would be able to work it and work it around. And back then, what they would do, they would bring
bark off the tree and they'd take that bark down and that would color the hides. Now what my father –
As they would dry, they would hang 'em in a loft and they would dry out. And my father had a little
gauge, he would pull 'em down and that's what he would do. He would gauge them and sort 'em and
then they would ship them out to the companies that would MB: The gauge, was that on the thickness?
LP: The thickness. And of course he was able to observe and separate the hides in categories, you see.
That was a very important job to be able to do that work. He did that most of his lifetime. Well, he
worked there until he died. But a lot of people worked there, but that's no longer a company now
because of synthetic _____ and everything came in so it made a difference. Go ahead.
MB: I want to be sure to allow a lot of time to talk about your many board memberships because you
have been on so many. I don't know whether we should do that now or – Is that OK?
LP: OK.
MB: If you would start talking about that because you are one of the most LP: Well, you know, its stranger than fiction I guess – When I got involved in the Boy Scouts over at
the First Baptist Church and I began to do training - I was a trainer for a period of time - I began to
meet people. You see, you gotta know people and I got involved in that program a great deal and then
people would from that point of view then I got involved in the Scouting program. And then I got
involved in the Scouting program in my church for a long period of time. And then, people began to
know you and then they would invite me to serve on boards and there was a fellow who was with an
insurance agent. He recommended me to serve on the United Way Board. That was my first board in
this city, United Way. And I served on that board for a number of years but I not only served on the
board but I did a lot of extra work in their campaign and everything. And then you got to know other
people just like Red Cross. People got to know me and said, “Let's bring in Lew Peery.”, “Let's get
Lew Peery on our board.”.
0.15.00.5
MB: That first board membership with United Way, do you have any idea when that was?
LP: It was back in the early '50s. Maybe about '58 or somewhere along in that neighborhood. I started
working/serving then. And then I got – You see the old Y was right here on the corner and I got
involved in that and I served on that board for 40 years. And then what happened then when we
merged, then I served on a ______ board 6 years. And then I got involved with the Council of
Community Services. I served on their board – Served my time out on that board and then I got
involved with the Red Cross Board and served on that board. And then I got involved in _______
extension board. I served on that board. Now, the other boards – I served on a lot of boards. One time,
they accused me that I served on more boards individually than anybody else. But I spent a lot of time
on those boards and working on the boards because I enjoyed doing that because, you see, I never had
an opportunity. You see, when opportunity knocks, you have to take advantage of it. In my hometown,
I never had an opportunity to do that. So when I moved here to Roanoke and people began to know

�Lew Peery, well they'd say, “Well, let's get him involved.”. So that's how I became involved in so
many boards here in the city. And I really enjoy it. And then something else happened that a lot of
people don't know about. In working with United Way, I had a good white friend at the United Way.
And we became close friends. He also worked in Scouting and one day he said to me, “Lew, would
you like to be a member of the Lions Club?”. And I thought a little bit about that. I said, “Yeah, I'd
like to be but I've never been asked.”. He said, “I'm thinking about organizing a Lions Club.”. I said,
“You are?”. He said, “Yeah.”. I said, “You better tell me about it.”. He says, “What I'm thinking about
organizing is an integrated Lions Club.”. I said, “Well, I'll tell you what you should do. I don't want
you to be embarrassed and I don't want to be embarrassed. You check with the governor to see if you
can get permission to do it.”. You have to have a club that sponsors you also. So he did that. So the
governor told him, “You go ahead and set it up.”. Well, what he did, he recruited white and I recruited
black. And that was the first integrated Lions Club in Virginia. 30 years – We're going to celebrate our
30th anniversary next year.
MB: What's the name of it?
LP: The Roanoke Valley Breakfast Lions Club. But it worked just wonderful. But something else
happened. You see, women were not members of Lions Clubs. Women were lionesses. My wife was a
lioness back then. Well, what really happened was, the National opened up the door and said, “We're
gonna bring women into the Lions Club.”. We were the first club to bring a female into our club. So
we were making history all the time. Of course, we lost her. She worked for the City, she died. But
right now, we have just as many women in our club and they have been really wonderful. But there are
still some clubs that don't want to bring women in. So, I thought I'd let you in on that. But we did that
in the City of Roanoke and it worked out beautifully. And we've had a good time. Now that's a good
club, Lions Club is a really good club. OK.
MB: I want to back up and talk about your school life and then I want to talk about your work life.
0.19.23.0
LP: Well, in Pearisburg where I came from, we finally ended up having a junior high school that went
to the 10th grade. Now, in order to acquire a high school education, we all blacks had to leave
Pearisburg because they could not go to school there at the white high school. So, Christiansburg
Industrial Institute by the Quakers and they had dormitories for boys and girls. About 5 members of
my family attended Christiansburg and all we had to do was go there. We had such a good school at
Pearisburg. We only had to go one year at Christiansburg then we were able to graduate. Now when I
moved here, I had a brother and a sister who came here and lived with us and went to Addison. What a
lot students – a lot of boys an girls, if you – you either had to come to Addison or Salem if you could
get – live with somebody in Salem or in Roanoke or go to Bluefield if you wanted to get a high school
education. So that was back in those days. Of course, when integration came along, everything
changed and the concept and everything changed so that worked out. Now when you talk about
education, the early part of my family – I have a sister who has a Master's Degree in Music. I have a
brother who has his Master's Degree who has taught around in this area – Finished up his schooling in
Florida and he is retired and he comes in and out of here – I think he kinda lives here in this Library but
he is a great reader. He loves to read. And I had another brother who had his Master's Degree in
German and English who taught at Howard but he didn't get his Doctorate Degree because he died at
47. And then I had a sister who went to college. She didn't stay there. She went along with _____.
And then another brother who went to college in Music. So after the family began to move along, a lot
of 'em – We got involved in education and we who were older than they, we helped them. That's how
we were able to – Because my father didn't make a whole lot of money. So what we did, we would
pool our resources and help them to get through college. So that worked out beautifully for them. And
that was our educational background.
MB: Tell me about your work, your first jobs and then your first work with the postal service.
LP: Let me go back a little bit and tell you about my first job. When I graduated from high school in

�1938, I couldn't find any work. I tried to obtain work at my father's tannery where he worked but I
never could get there, never could get a job. I finally ended up – A good friend of my father who
worked for Norfolk &amp; Western on the rail gang. He came in one weekend and asked my father and
mother to let me go back with him 'cause he had a position, a job for me there on the rail gang. You
know, you travel _________. So I went back with him. And my job was a special job. I worked in the
kitchen. And I laughed about that over the years when I did some work for the postal service. I said,
“You know what my first salary was?”. They say, “What?”. My salary was $30 a month room and
board and they couldn't believe it. (laughing) But that's how I started out. But I never stayed out there
too long because I went on and came on back home and I worked for Norfolk &amp; Western out on the rail
gang for a little while but then I went with Celanese Corporation there between Narrows and
Pearisburg separate to this place that closed down here. It was yarn back then but they still ____. So I
worked there prior to the war, prior to my service and in 1943 I went into the Navy. I don't think I told
you that.
MB: No.
LP: I went into the Navy in 1943. I stayed in the Navy 33 months and then the war was over and then
I came back from the Navy. I went back to my job at Celanese and I stayed there until 1948. But I
worked at Celanese – You see, you have to understand what people go through with. I'm gonna be
honest with ya. I grew up – I didn't have any problems growing up as a youngster in Pearisburg. All of
us, white and black, we played softball together, football together. We had a lot of fun together. We
didn't talk a lot about race and everything like that. We just had a good time. Although, I couldn't –
When I went to Celanese, I really couldn't get a good job. I was a janitor when I started working there.
And when I used to do that work for the postal service, employment _______. I used to tell 'em when I
came back from the service, I received a promotion and they said, “Mr. Peery, what was your
promotion?”. I said, “I was promoted to a - just an ordinary employee.”. I never was able to move up.
I tried to move up but I was never able to move up. So I just accepted it and went on. I was happy I
had a dream that one day that I was gonna live here in Roanoke and one day, I was gonna carry mail in
this city. And I never lost that dream. And what happened, a fellow gave me a little paper on the
examination and I studied that and I was able to pass the examination. So that was how things
happened for me over the years.
0.25.40.2
MB: Tell me again about your career with the Postal Service.
LP: I carried mail for 18 years. For 4 years, I carried mail all over the city. I was just a substitute
carried. I worked by the hour. When I left the VA, I had a regular position and the Postmaster here told
me, it was a lady, said, “Mr. Peery, you know what you're doing?”. I said, “What do you mean?”.
“You are leaving a regular position to come here to work in a part-time position and you're gonna work
by the hour until you move up to become regular.”. I said, “I'm aware of that. But, I'll tell you what, I
want to work for the Postal Service.”. So she says, “OK.”. Then she hired me. I worked that position
– I worked as a carrier for 18 years as a carrier, strictly as a carrier. Well, things began to change. That
was Post Office Department. You gotta know how time changes things. It was the Post Office
Department back then. From 1965 to 1970, I still carried mail but I was an Ad Hoc Hearing Officer
and Investigative Officer for Adverse Action. What they did, the employees who had trouble or
suspension or whatever, they would just get rid of 'em or whatever it was, I would go out and conduct a
hearing. And what I would have to do, I had to tape it, I'd come back to the office and sit down and
write it up. I had to write up the case. I had to write a summary. I had to write the finding of facts and
I had to make a decision – What would happen to that employee. And that was real challenging. I did
that to 1970. Then, they abolished that job and brought in the Affirmative Action Program. They kinda
knew me in Washington to a certain extent by working up there with Ad Hoc and I travelled a lot all
over Virginia, Washington, Baltimore as a Hearing Officer. So then I went out when they opened up a
new program. They called it the US Postal Service. See how they changed? Post Office Department

�to the US Postal Service and then they brought in what they called the Affirmative Action Program. So
then they decided that employees who filed discrimination complaints regardless of race or creed, color
or national origin or whatever it was, they would send me in. If they filed a complaint and requested a
hearing, requested counseling, then what I would do, I would put down my mail bag and tell the
Postmaster I had a request to go counsel somebody. And I would go in and listen to their complaint
and then I – both sides, Postmaster's side or his officer's side and then I would come back and write up
the case. But I had to give them an opportunity. I couldn't tell 'em they didn't have any complaint. I
had to just write the facts and let them do what they wanted to do and if they weren't satisfied with the
results of mine. And then one day they said they wanted to have also place EEO, a specialist in the
position. In Virginia, we had two district offices, one in Richmond and one here in Roanoke. So I
moved out of the post office to the district office and I worked under the District Manager and that's
who I worked for until I retired and they abolished my position. But then I'd put together all those
reports and things and send 'em in. And what happened, I would have to send them in under the EEO
program. I'd have to write up my reports and send my reports in to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and
they would review them and then they would take it from there. On 3 occasions, I had to go to those
offices that was a 3 month detail. So I gained a lot of experience working in the EEO program but its
no longer the program that it used to be. But, it was a good program for employees who felt that they
were discriminated against. I found a lot of things that needed to be changed. So, we did a lot of good
work in that area.
0.30.03.0
MB: I was wondering what you learned about the working lives of people here in Roanoke from all
those years of work.
LP: I learned – I'll tell ya – I learned a lot of things about that work. In my position as an EEO
Counselor or EEO Specialist, in my district, if somebody raised a complaint of discrimination – For
example, if you took the examination and you got your grade and they were hiring and hadn't called
you and you called and found out that Lewis Peery's the EEO Counselor, you would call and say,
“Well, what I'd like to do, Mr. Peery, I'd like to have an interview with you. I'd like to file a
complaint.”. And you'd come in and tell me, “You know, here is my grade.”. You'd bring your grade.
“They're hiring. What about my grade?”. I had the authority in my position – All I had to do was call
the ski (??) man. “Bring your report in here. I want to see your hiring practices.”. When that came
aboard, the Postmaster had to be awful careful because I could just go in and ask for the records and
they couldn't deny me giving me the record. And then, that's one thing that would help change things
back in those days. When I started working at the post office, wasn't a female working on a workroom
floor. But times began to change things. Everything began to change. We gotta be careful. But then
you had to go back and look at if you were a ten-point service connected veteran, they couldn't bypass
you regardless of your score to bring somebody in that was not a ten-point veteran. So, I learned a lot
about the make-up and what you had to do and what they had to do in order that they'd be honest in
their hiring practices. Same way with promotions. All that changed over the years and it made it better
for everybody. I would've never had my position, like I told you earlier, if somebody in Washington
hadn't have called this post office and told them, “We want a black man to come up here for this
interview. The Postmaster would've never sent. That's just a fact. That's facts you see. Back in those
days you see. Of course, things have changed now a whole lot. Alright, go ahead. (chuckle) I don't
want to take up your whole time. I should – Everything going alright? OK. (chuckle)
MB: I thought we'd talk a little bit about your home life on Rutheford Avenue and over the years just
the things you all did in the evenings and your community life, your neighbors and LP: My wife and I took a lot of interest in our neighbors and we would help them when we were able
to help them because she was community-minded too. And we had a neighborhood group there,
Rutheford Avenue Block Club and we'd bring the neighbors in together and we'd talk about what we
could do to improve the neighborhood. Same way here. Oh, there was one more thing I forgot to tell

�you or that flipped up. I was part of the Roanoke Neighborhood Partnership for a long time. I forgot
about that. I served as its President. That was an excellent program here in the city. So we did a lot of
work in the community, both of us, 'cause we were kinda community-minded.
MB: So the neighbors were really close on Rutheford.
LP: Oh, yeah. Like I told you, we are the last two in the neighborhood of the whole block that was
here when we moved here 58 years ago.
MB: Are there still homeowners on that street?
LP: That's a problem. We have a lot of rental property there. Most all – So many of the problems –
Well, we still have some homeowners but everything has changed. Everything has changed and a lot of
it - people are buying 'em and renting it and remodeling and renting it to the people. So, its changed a
lot.
MB: Back in the old days, were there businesses that you and Mrs. Peery would – favorite businesses
in your neighborhood?
0.34.44.7
LP: We had a lot of stores. Back in those days, the Syrians had the store. There was a black family
right here on Harrison Avenue that had a store, a grocery store, and there was another store up at the
other end of Rutheford Avenue. We would go to – The Syrians were very nice. We didn't have any
problems. They had things pretty reasonable. If we didn't want to go downtown. We didn't have an
automobile you see. We'd go to those stores, patronize those stores. And we got along fine as far as
that was concerned, supporting them. And now all of that is gone. All those stores are gone in the
community. Everything changed, see how a community will change.
MB: Did you use some of the businesses on Henry Street? Insurance or whatever, cleaners?
LP: Yeah. _____ Cleaners was our big cleaners. They was right over here. And then we had a
drugstore we patronized and they had some stores on Henry Street. We had an insurance agent which
we were part of. Had barber shops. Had shops down here on Gilmer. So, there were a lot of
businesses over there where you could go in and get a beer. And, of course, they had the Dumas Hotel
and they served _______. And had a number of businesses over – And they had hotel. There was
another hotel there on the street there too. Dumas Hotel was a big hotel. Now something else came up
in mind when you talk about the Dumas Hotel back in those days. We had a lot of bands that would
come to town and play at the Civic Center and they would stay at the Dumas Hotel. They couldn't stay
at any other place but later on, Hale had a – opened up a place up in Salem but most of the people,
those bands, musical people who came to town or they have to come to town to stay, they did stay at
Dumas Hotel.
MB: Did you ever see any of them or go to hear them?
LP: Yeah, I would go to the Civic Center sometimes for like Count Basie, Cab Calloway are some of
'em that would come to town. We'd go to them sometimes. My wife didn't care about going but we'd
go.
MB: Were they at the City Auditorium?
LP: Yeah, the City Auditorium, right down here – Well there was Commonwealth but its no longer
Commonwealth Avenue. And then later on, they'd be up on across the street here over here but that's
gone now. A fellow put up one and they used that a lot for music things and activities. Things began to
bloom a little bit as the years began to pass by.
MB: Did you ever go to the Club Morocco or the Ebony Club?
LP: I never did go to that. Now we had a black theater. When we went to the theater downtown, we
had to go in the back off of Kirk Avenue up the stairway, the Roanoke Theater. And later on, as the
years passed, the theaters opened up. You could go to any of them. As time passed, you know. When
things began to change, discrimination began to take off, began to look at very carefully and things
began to open up. Just like Addison High School was the only school you could go to back then as far
as high school. Of course, you could go to ____ public two high schools here, Addison and Jefferson

�and then they had Carver.
MB: In Salem.
LP: Where my wife lived, in Vinton, went to high school in Salem. But see how things were back
then. But you just got adjusted to it. You couldn't ride the buses up in front. When you got on the bus,
you had to go to the back. Same way for the trains and different things. When you'd go downtown to
drink water, the water cooler, I tested it up. They had one for black and one for white. I didn't find any
difference but they said there was a difference I guess. (chuckling)
MB: What were your memories of the Gainsboro Library? Did you know Mrs. Lee?
LP: I knew Mrs. Lee. Mrs. Lee was a wonderful lady. Mrs. Lee was a member of the First Baptist
Church and she was a devoted member over here and over at the First Baptist Church. She was an
excellent Sunday School teacher. She taught ladies and I'll tell ya what happened to me. Mrs. Lee
gave up that Sunday School class. The Superintendent came one Sunday and asked me if I would hold
her class 'til they got somebody to teach. I shook my head. I said, “How can I do that?”. He said, “Its
just temporarily.” That temporarily position lasted 33 years. All women, but I learned a lot and had a
wonderful experience. But she was a good teacher and a good librarian and good citizen in this
community, just lived up the street here too.
0.40.07.6
MB: So did you come into the library?
LP: Yeah. Sometimes when I carried mail, I always came by here 'cause I delivered the mail. So I got
to see her. She was a super lady.
MB: Who were some of the community leaders that you admired the most?
LP: I thought about that. Reverend A. L. James who pastored this church here for 38 years.
MB: First Baptist, right?
LP: First Baptist Church for 38 years. He was kinda my mentor. I joined that church and went on that
official board under his leadership, I thought the world – He did a lot for this city that a lot of people
didn't know what he was doing. But he worked with the people across town. He knew how to do that.
Dr. Harry T. Penn who was a dentist was another one of my mentors. I though a lot of Harry T. Penn.
He did a lot of work in this community in those years. And then Reverend - There was another
minister over here at Hill Street that I liked very much MB: R. R. Wilkinson?
LP: R. R. Wilkinson. I thought a lot of R. R. Wilkinson. He did a lot of work through the NAACP and
for the community. We had another young lawyer, Rubin Lawson. And then we had a doctor, E.D.
Downing. So we had some people that were kinda working hard back in those days for the city and I
just thought a lot of – those were some of my mentors in the city.
MB: And the things that they did for the city were they – What do you mean? Were they helping
individuals or were they - ?
LP: They were helping the city. They were trying to help the city come together and maybe look at
each other and respect each other and maybe job opportunities and different things like that. Because
the job opportunities were kinda scarce back then for minorities anyway. Norfolk &amp; Western was a key
factor back then and the service tracks and things you know, a lot worked in the office down there, that
big office you know. So things were moving, began to move a little bit as time passed by.
MB: I was wondering what you remember of the desegregation of the businesses downtown.
LP: I'm gonna be very honest with you. When they desegregated, I don't know what it was. I had no
problems. I had no problems myself.
MB: You mean before they desegregated?
LP: After desegregation. Now before, I knew where I could go and where I couldn't go. Now there
was one place I always wanted to go was S&amp;W because I thought that was a super place.
MB: That's a cafeteria.
LP: A cafeteria.

�MB: Down on Church Avenue.
LP: Church Avenue. But I'll tell ya what happened. Time tells ya how things changed. When we
organized our Lions Club, Breakfast Club, that's where we went for our meetings. Now, they had an
upstairs, you know, they served upstairs too, you know. And that's where we would go and have our
breakfasts until they closed. No problem. We'd go through the line downstairs and go right on upstairs
'cause a lot of times they didn't have a line upstairs, serving upstairs. So that was some of the things we
did. Of course, we shopped downtown and everything with all the stores. Everybody had their special
stores. Ladies had their special stores. Men had their special stores. So that was a big thing
downtown. Davis' is the only store down there now for men. All of 'em are gone. But I didn't have
any problem. But I certainly checked that drinking fountain to see if there was any difference in the
water. (chuckling) Didn't find any. (chuckling)
MB: How has Gainsboro changed?
0.44.33.3
LP: Its not the same anymore. All the businesses are gone that was once here. Henry Street is gone.
Its gone. But you gotta understand it. It served its purpose back in those days. That's the only thing
that we had was Henry Street, a place to go and to get some food and everything. Go over there if you
wanted to go to the Ebony Club or go to the theater. We all participated in that. When desegregation
came about, then it changed. Then what happened, we could go where we wanted to. You could go to
any of the restaurants. I remember the first time. We couldn't go to Hotel Roanoke. But I remember
one time, I had a good friend who worked in Scouting. He – Gave him the Silver Beaver Award, the
highest award in Scouting in 1952. He had to sit in the kitchen over there before they would bring him
in to present his award. Now, I got the Silver Beaver Award in 1964. My wife and I went in the
Crystal Ballroom. You see how thing begin to change. You gotta look back. I know what it was but
then you got to look farther. You see some negative parts but then its all so positive. I looked at both
sides of it, the positive part and the negative part. When I was in the Navy, I got on a train here in
Roanoke or I'd catch it at Pearisburg, I had to sit back in the segregated car. When I got to Bluefield,
moved anywhere I wanted to. When I came home, I could ride anywhere I wanted to until I got to
Bluefield and then I had to move back. Those things you had to look at and adjust to them. You don't
know anything about that young lady. (chuckling) I'm just talking history, what went on. You see you
never know if you don't hear anybody talk about it. You'd never know. And the young people in this
day and time, they don't want to hear about that. They don't want to know how, what we really went
through in order to survive. When we went somewhere, we had to be careful. If you wanted to buy gas
somewhere, if you want to use a restroom – What's that program they had, that guy was driving Daisy?
Did you see that?
MB: Driving Miss Daisy.
LP: But you know, it was something to that. It was something to that. Now you'd go to ask somebody,
“Sorry, our restrooms out of order.”. So you had to – It was something to have to go. But we survived.
OK, you go back to your questions. (chuckling) I get caught up in it and start talking.
MB: Its wonderful. What are your memories of Urban Renewal?
LP: I'm gonna be honest with ya about Urban Renewal. A lot of people may not agree with me what
I'll say about Urban Renewal. I'm gonna go back in Northeast for Urban Renewal. I carried mail down
there. There were some good houses in Northeast but there were some houses that were not good.
Now, my thinking on one side, I thought it was good. A lot of people got good homes when they
moved to Northwest. You see, back then when I moved here, there were no minorities beyond 10th
Street. No minorities. But now they are beyond 10th Street. They moved out of Northeast and they got
nice homes. I know some of them suffered. I know that. But it was better. I have talked to some of
them and they said, “Well, we suffered but we're living better.”. 'Cause some of those houses were not
so good down through there and I know that. All that over at Pocahontas Avenue, Gregory Avenue, I
know all about because I carried the mail down there and I saw the conditions of some of those houses.

�Now, over here in Northwest, that's beautiful over there. Nice homes. Of course they __________
more money than they did down in Northeast but that's a price you pay, you know, for better living. So,
I thought it was good. It had its negative parts of it but it had its pluses you see. So, I thought it was
good _______. Now back then – You gotta look at things – Lincoln Terrace was nice. A lot of the
people moved to Lincoln Terrace but that changed. Its better now. But see these things changed and
then they come back you see. So, that's just my concept of the city. And you know what? I love
Roanoke. I'm kinda like Noel C. Taylor. OK, go ahead. (chuckling) You get me caught in this and I
get to talking about it, but that's my concept of it. But not a lot of people agree with my concept of
Urban Renewal. You know something else when I came here, Henry Street was a nice street. My wife
told me that they always went – They had to walk – See my wife and her father – My father-in-law
never had a real job. He did furnaces and things back in those days. He had special families that he
worked for. So what he would do, they would get up early in the morning and come in and help here.
You see they had to work. He had those girls and all of 'em did that. They would help him with offices
and everything early in the morning and then they'd go on to Addison and go to school or whatever
they had to do. Back in those days, that's what would happen to them. They had to work. They were
closely knitted. And sometimes they had to stay with the white families in order to go to school in the
city. See there was a lot going on back in those days when you look at the history of what has
happened and, of course, Henry Street was there and that's all we had. So we had to make ____. But
there were some good businesses over there and some fine people over there. Dr. Brooks had a fine
drugstore over there. And Green had a shoe shop. And Dr. Downing had his office over there and they
had an offices up there, Dr. Brown and Dr. Penn. They had all that over there on Henry Street. North
Carolina butrum (??) was on the corner of Wells Avenue and 1st Street. And shoe shops and barber
shops here and barber shops over here, funeral homes and everything. This was really the heart of
Gainsboro as far as the businesses were concerned back in those days. So you accepted it to the best of
your ability and moved along. OK, go ahead, I'm sorry.
0.51.46.3
MB: Oh no, this is so good. Before I forget, I wanted to make sure that we talked a little bit about
your Navy service, where you went and what you did.
LP: I served – I was recruited here in Roanoke and I prepared to go into the Army. I thought the Army
would be wonderful. But I came here to Roanoke and took the examination – They examined me and
they put on my form, “Navy”. And I was just disgusted. It also said I would qualify for submarine
duty. But once I went into the Navy, I went to Great Lakes, Illinois, and stayed there 6 weeks training,
I learned something. And through the years - I stayed in the Navy 33 months - I always said, I wish I
could see that doctor who put me in the Navy. I'd give him a big hug because I had a good Navy
career. I went to Great Lakes, Illinois, for my training, came back home and I went to Hasting,
Nebraska. We opened up a Naval Depot there. We made ammunition for the fleet. That's what I did
for 2 years. I stayed right there in Hasting, Nebraska, at the Naval Depot. And something else too.
There were not many minorities in Hasting, Nebraska. We had to go to Omaha, Nebraska, for liberty
every other week.
MB: How far?
LP: 150 miles. 150 miles. And the buses were kinda like cattle, no heat and wintertime was really
rough, really rough. Well, my time ran out at Hasting, Nebraska, and they sent me to – I went to
Hawaii. I still worked with ammunition in Hawaii but I didn't stay there too long 'til the war was over.
But they always called something about “going down” to go down to some of the other islands but I
stayed there at Oahu for the rest of my time in the Navy and then I came back and was discharged on
December 29, up in Tennessee.
MB: So you were in Oahu after Pearl Harbor?
LP: Mm mm. I was there after Pearl Harbor. I was there during Pearl Harbor – No, after Pearl Harbor.
I wasn't there during Pearl Harbor but I went there after Pearl Harbor. But when I went back on

�vacation, I saw the change in that island. All those hotels and everything – I couldn't hardly find the
old Halelua but its still there. So I stayed there about 6 or 7 months before I was discharged.
MB: I'm glad you went back.
LP: I've been back a couple of times on vacation 'cause I love it. Its really nice. I better not say this on
TV but I got a deeper suntan there too. (laughing) They didn't record that did they? But I love the
water. I love the beach. OK, go ahead, I'm sorry.
0.55.07.0
MB: I guess we're about done. There are so many more things we would love to talk with you about.
LP: You know something happened that I want to tell you about. I want to tell you something about
the libraries. I'm going back to my wife. As I told you earlier, my wife did a lot of work here in the
community. She was all over the city. Everybody – All these businesses for the ad for Halcon (??)
Company, they just really loved her. And she traveled around and pick up the ads for different places
or Halcon (??) Company because that was the only ad (??) company back then. Well, one day, the lady
in the office sent her across – Told her to go to the library across town and she went across town for the
library. She had called and told her what books she wanted. So she went in to pick up the books and
the lady said to her, “What are you doing coming here, picking up books here? You need to go to
Gainsboro Library.”. My wife was very disappointed. She just said to her, “Well, I'm sorry. The lady
from the office called me and told me to come here to pick up these books and that's why I'm here.”.
She gave her the books but when she went back to the office, that lady called her up and told her, “You
don't do a thing like that.” She gave her a little _______ about it. But those things kinda happen
sometimes. That shows you how some people think back in that time. Of course, this was a good
library but they felt like that library is for blacks so you go to your library _________. ______. So
those are some of the things that occurred back in those days but time changes a lot of things. I'm
through. I hope I haven't talked too much.

                    <text>Interviewee: Freeland O. Pendleton, Sr.
Interviewer: Laura Wickstead
Transcriber: Andrew Sterling
LW: Where and when were you born Mr. Pendleton?
FP: I was born in Superior, West Virginia, September 30, 1919.
LW: How long have you lived in Gainsboro?
FP: We moved to Roanoke in 1923 and I lived here most all of my life 'til I got married and bought a
home in North/Northwest.
LW: Where did you live when you moved here in the early days?
FP: Right back here at the Civic Center. Our property was right there on the corner, it was up there on
the hill from the Civic Center. It was called Diamond Hill. In fact, it was nicknamed Diamond Hill but
it was really named Clayton Avenue. We sat up on the hill and looked right down on – Of course, the
highway wasn't through there then. It was Hart Avenue. It was the third road up by there. You would
sit up on the hill and look down into the graveyard. You know where the graveyard is right down here.
We lived right there on that corner.
LW: Where did the “Diamond Hill” nickname come from?
FP: Diamond hill came from at night, you could stand and look up on the hill and see rocks glittering.
It looked like diamonds. So they started calling it Diamond hill.
LW: Tell me about your parents and your brothers and sisters.
FP: Well, my mother was born in Superior, not Superior, she was born in Providence, Rhode Island.
Her mother died in childbirth and one of her mother's sisters got her, in fact, they stole her and moved
to Bedford. And they raised her up until she got to 16 years old. She ran off and got married in West
Virginia. (laughing) She was 16 and so that's how we began.
LW: Do you know what year that was, when she was 16?
FP: It was way before my time. (laughing) I really don't remember when she was born. I mean, I got
it in the history at home or something like that but, right off hand, I don't know.
LW: Tell me about your brothers and sisters.
FP: My oldest son is named Freeland Jr. He was in banking here in Roanoke for 20 years.
LW: Let me interrupt you, tell me one thing. We forgot to talk about your dad and I want to know
about your brothers and sisters not your children.
FP: Oh, my brothers LW: First, tell us about your father.
FP: My father was named Henry Pendleton. He was from Lynchburg and he moved to West Virginia
and worked in the mines. He got killed in the mines in 1923 and my mother – There was 5 of us kids.
After he got killed, we moved to Bedford for about 6 months and then we came to Roanoke. My
mother bought a house here in Roanoke. My brother, y'all may have seen it in the paper, his name is
Bernard Pendleton. He was Chief of Staff at the Veteran's Administration in Bedford, Massachusetts,
33 years. After he retired, he went to – He finished Hampton and then he got his doctorate at Boston
University and when he retired, he came back to Virginia Beach and was Assistant Dean at Norfolk
State College. He died some years ago. I had a sister that lived in Philadelphia. She died. And there
was a twin, Morris. My sister and brother under me were twins. So after they died – That was about it
for my family. In fact, I am the only one living in my immediate family. After my mother was stolen
from Providence, her daddy worked for Standard Oil Company in Orange, New Jersey, and he didn't
know where she was. And she said, after we were born, we were living right down here on Clayton
Avenue, right up where the Civic Center is now. She said, “I'm want to find my father”. So she got
somebody to look after us. We were teenage and small. I think she was 36 years old. She got in touch
with some of her people in Rhode Island and they said that he was – Her father was living somewhere
1

�in New Jersey, Orange, New Jersey. So, she went to New York to visit one of my cousins. She said,
“Yeah, I know where he is”. So she called him and told him to come over and that she had a surprise
for him. He came over and she introduced - My cousin introduced my mother to her father and didn't
tell him who she was. He said, “Where is my surprise?”. She said, “That's your daughter sitting beside
of you”. And he was so enthused over it, he couldn't speak for 15 minutes. He had never seen her. She
was 6 weeks old when she left, I mean, when they stole her and carried her to Bedford. And he never
knew where she was up until she was 36 years old. That was my grandfather. He came to Roanoke to
visit us. We were living up on Diamond hill then, right up where the Civic Center there. I guess we
went on from there. After my kids were born – In fact, I was married once before. I was married to a
girl named Louise Brown. We only were married – we were youngsters – We were only married 9
months. (laughing) And after we separated – I went in the service after that. After that, I volunteered
for the Navy. So I went in the service during the war. After I went in the service, she wanted to get a
divorce. My first wife wanted to get a divorce so they told her, she didn't have no grounds to get a
divorce on. They said, “Your husband can get a divorce”. So the lawyer told me, he said - she runned
it in the paper for 2 weeks and if I didn't correspond to it – I was in the service then – said she would,
they would automatically give her a divorce. So she did. She did that. I didn't correspond, check on it,
so the Chaplain came in and called me in. And the thing that tickled me, he said, “The reason I called
you in, I've got these divorce papers here. In the eyes of the law, you're a free man but in the eyes of
God, you're still married”. (laughing) That's what the Chaplain told me. So afterwards, and after I got
out of the service and I came back and I met my second wife, so we've been married 46 years. She
died in '93, cancer. She was a nurse at Burrell Hospital and Community. That was all of my family.
After my family passed away, then my family came along. My son, my oldest son, my second son.
You know my oldest son, Freeland Jr., run the coves (??). (laughing)
0.08.07.3
LW: Can we backtrack a little bit and tell me what do you remember about your house, the one on
Diamond Hill.
FP: It was a 9-room home. I think when she bought it – Clayton Lemons built it, built those homes up
there on the hill. Clayton Lemons, I don't know if you know who he was but he was. In fact, he was
an aviator, Clayton Lemons, airplanes and things. He would train people out at Woodrum Airport,
Woodrum Field. So she bought the house down there. I don't think – During that time, I think the
house was selling for around $3,000. That was a whole lot of money during that time. (laughing).
And we lived there until I got married.
LW: What did your mother do? What was her work?
0.09.00.1
FP: She was a homemaker and she worked in service. She worked for Miss Jessie. Do you remember
a lawyer Jessie, a lawyer here in Roanoke. She worked for his mother. She was the paymaster for
N&amp;W. She was the paymaster for N&amp;W and she worked for Miss Jessie. She took in washing, ironing
and stuff like that. I used to deliver the clothes back to 'em and all. (laughing) After that, - When I
was 12 years old, we joined the 5th Avenue Presbyterian Church. I'm an elder up there at 5th Avenue
Presbyterian Church. Before then I worked for – I went – The doctors – I worked at the Silk Mill for
20 years and it closed. The doctors – 21 doctors had asked me about – They were building a building
out on MacClanahan, The Professional Building. He asked me if I would run it for him. I told him if
the price was right I would. (laughing) I told him if the price was right I would run it. And when they
announced the closing of the Silk Mill after I had been there 20 years, I went and told him the price was
right. I didn't care what it was, it was right. (laughing) So I worked for them for 14 years taking care
of The Professional Building for 21 doctors. Then a position came open in the schools for a Foreman.
The head Foreman was there but they didn't have in the history of Roanoke never had no black
Foreman over all the public schools in Roanoke. 36 public schools during that time. They don't have
2

�that many now. They asked me if I would take that job. In fact, Sonny Thomas – I don't know if you
remember. You remember Sonny Thomas? Sonny Thomas and John C. Logan – They came to me and
asked me, “How about taking that job?”. I said, “I've got a good job”. I was at the Professional
Building then. They said, “We want to put somebody in that position. The government said we can't
put another white person in that job.” They said, “We've got to have a negro in that job”. So, I told
them, “No.”. I didn't think I wanted it. I had a good job and I was satisfied. And they held the job
open for 3 months and Sonny Thomas, he was _______ (??) up at my church and so he come and he
said, “Pendleton, why don't you take that job. We're trying to get somebody to put in that job who
knows what they're doing. We don't want to put somebody in there that don't know what they're
doing”. I said, “Well, I'll tell ya. I'll put in my resume.”. So I got Mr. Phillips – Remember the
Principal of Addison – Mr. Phillips and Mrs. Phillips, they helped me write my resume and I carried it
over and gave it to Dr. Paxton. He was the Superintendent of schools during that time. He told 'em, he
said, “Well, if you don't hire him, I'm gonna quit myself.”. (laughing) He knew I had handled men
before in the service. I took 250 sailors to Orange, New Jersey, and I was a First Class Petty Officer,
and they told me I could pick my own Petty Officer to go help me. They had 200 LSTs tied up in
docks in Earl (??), New Jersey and the Stegeldors (??) had struck during the war. They had struck and
so they couldn't let civilians go across the picket line but Navy personnel could. So I carried from
down Yorktown 250 sailors up there and we got those ships out of dock.
LW: Tell me about – Back to your – the position with the schools, what were your responsibilities?
FP: My responsibilities was I inspected the schools, all the schools once a month. I had to go through
them and inspect 'em. In fact, there was the head of operations. His office was down there on 6th
Street, right across from the fire station during that time. After I went there, I was pretty satisfied. I
enjoyed it. I'd come in and go in the office in the morning and get everybody on the job. After I got
'em on the job, then I started going around visiting the schools, see what they needed or see what's
going on. My supervisor was from Pennsylvania. He was a real nice guy. He was from Pennsylvania.
So, I worked there for 13 years I think it was.
LW: Tell me about your schooling. Where did you go to school?
0.13.49.9
FP: I went to Addison. I didn't finish. I went to the 11th grade but what happened – Now starting off, I
went to elementary school at Harrison. You know up at Harrison. That's where I went to elementary
school there and I skipped a grade there. I didn't go to the 8th grade. They moved me from the 7th –
They took the 8th grade out I think is what happened and I went from the 7th to the 9th at Addison.
(laughing) During that time, they didn't go no further than the 11th grade then. See, they didn't go no
further than the 11th grade. So, in later years, they put the 12th grade back on. So after that, after I left,
after I came out of school, I told my mother I wanted to go to Washington. And she said, “What you
want to go to Washington for?”. I said, “I want to go up there”. In fact, the reason I wanted to go to
Washington, I tried to join the Army and they told me that they wasn't taking any blacks in the Army
here in Roanoke. They said the closest place I could go would be Fort Belvoir up near Washington,
D.C. I didn't tell my mother what I was going to do. So she said, “I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll give
you money enough to get there and not enough to get back”. So she thought I wanted to go just to go
on vacation or something. So she game me $10. I never will forget it. Enough to catch the Greyhound
Bus, go to Washington. Got up there, I rented a room on T Street for $2.50 a week – a room, $2.50 a
week and I think the bus trip was $2 or $3 or something like that to Washington, one way. And after I
got there, you could buy a job. You could buy jobs then. So I went down to the Unemployment Office
and they had 2 jobs that maybe I could've done but they had one job in there for chef/cook and one for
expert painter, you know, like to paint room inside. So I didn't know much about cooking then. I said
I'll take the painting job. I gave them a dollar – I had paid a dollar and a half for the job. They gave me
the address out near the zoo in Washington. People lived out there and the husband worked for the
3

�Interior, Washington, DC for Interior at the White House. So, she looked at me and she said, “You
look mighty young to be an expert painter”. (laughing) I think I was 14 or 15. She said, “You're
mighty young to be an expert painter”. (laughing) I said, “I'm an expert painter though”. She said,
“Where are you from?”. I said, “I'm from Virginia”. She said, “I like Virginia boys so I'm gonna give
you a chance”. She said, “If you mess up my wall, I'm gonna have to pay more money (laughing) I got
in there and I painted living room, dining room, hall, everything. I done a beautiful job. And she said,
“You know, I wouldn't believe that you could do this.” It took me a week. My rent was due on this
$2.50 room. It was running out. And so, she said, “I've got a room down here in the basement you
could use and you could live here until the fall of the year if you want to and help me around the house
and I'll see some of my friends get you a job.”. I said, “Well and good.”. So I moved over there and I
used to help her around the house, do things for her. And then up at 16th and Irving, they had this big
cafeteria in a big apartment building and she got me a job up there as a bus boy. And I stayed there and
worked up to waiter. Had a lot of fellows from Howard University used to come over and wait tables
for extra work and help. So, I was the bus boy for some of them for a while and they would always tip
me and I kept the tables clean for 'em. Finally, I worked up to waiter. I done that until I came back. I
came back to Roanoke in 1938. And they said, “Why you come back here for? Ain't no jobs here.”.
So I heard they was hiring over at the Silk Mill, 1938. I went over there and the man come out, Mr.
Rich, a little short fellow. He came out and when he hired me, he said, “I want you, you, you and
you.”. There were a bunch of guys standing around out there. They picked me. I was a big strapping –
I was big then, you know, but I wasn't old. So I got in there, when I got in there, they asked my age. I
told 'em how old I was. They said, “I'm sorry, you're too young. We can't hire you.”. So I come on
back out. So the next week, they were still hiring, I went back over there about 2 weeks later and they
picked me again. And I told 'em I was 18. And they said, “You're too young.”. I don't know why they
didn't recognize me. Anyway, what happened, they was getting ready to put the railroad through there
so the engine could bring big box cars and things in to the plant down there. So, the man that lived the
2nd door from me when I lived up on Diamond Hill, he worked there. I asked him, “How old do you
have to be to get a job over there?”. He said, “You gotta be 21.”. So what I did, I went back a week or
so later and they picked me again. (laughing) So when I got in there and they asked my age, I told 'em
I was 23. (laughing) I was big enough but I wasn't old enough. I told 'em I was 23. So, they hired me.
And I worked there until 1940 when you had to register for the Army. That's when they caught up with
my age. They said, “You mean to tell me you've been here this long and you're just now 21 years
old?”. I said, “Yeah, that's right. I'm 21 and nothing y'all can do now”. They said, “You know, if
anything happened to you, your parents could've sued this company.”. I said, “Well, didn't nothing
happen and I'm 21.”.
0.20.22.1
LW: What types of things did you do at this plant?
FP: I ran a forklift, unloading cars and things like that. I worked on the railroad over there to help put
the tracks in. That was a hard job 'cause I was big enough and all and I learned how to roll. I don't
know whether you've seen fellows on the railroad rolling those hammers, spiking down ____. I learned
how to do all that.
LW: And that was something that you did in teams, several men at a time would do that?
FP: Oh yeah. 'Cause it took for one section of rail, it would 8 people to lift one section of rail to set it
in.
LW: How did you coordinate everybody's efforts so that you could work together?
FP: They had one lead man that give you the go-ahead of what to do. It had something like a one of
those long rails laying out. I think those thing weigh, I don't know how many – over 2 or 300 pounds a
foot. One of those long rails. And they had 2 men up here, 2 here, 2 here, and all the way down the
line. Had something like an ice hook that hooks under that rail, 1 man on this side and 1 on that side.
4

�The lead man, he would tell you when to get ready to lift. And everybody would lift at the same time
and move the rails up on the logs. Then you had to tamp your logs down to the gravel and logs. I had
a real tricky life. After that, I started training for prize fighting. I was still working up there though. I
fought at the American Legion. I don't know if y'all remember the American Legion Auditorium when
it was here. You remember the American Legion? I fought ______ with Jessie Baker. Remember
Jessie Baker? (laughing) I turned out to be a right good prize fighter during that time.
LW: So, how old were you then?
FP: Let me see. I had to be around 18. 'Cause see, I put my age up when I got the job at the Silk Mill.
And I fought – We used to fight guys out of Richmond and West Virginia, Greensboro. We had this big
bout down at the American Legion Auditorium. My sisters and all my friends were there. I was gonna
fight this guy from Richmond that night. So John Archie Brown – I don't know whether you remember
him or not, he was a trainer. John Archie, he was our trainer. We got up there and he said, “Pendleton,
I'll tell ya, this guy, in the first round we'll check and see if he's a slugger or a boxer.”. So when I came
back to the corner, my trainer said, “He's a slugger.”. What a slugger means is, he just come in wailing
away. Don't you do that, you stay back and box him and try to stay out of his way. I said, “OK.”. I got
out there and I was ducking and dodging. This guy was coming at me with everything he could think
of and I was aiming to ride the ropes – You can fall back against the rope and slide down out the way.
So I was in a crouch when I went back, my head missed the top rope. I went out through the 2nd rope
down on that cement floor. And when I hit the floor, everything went black. Everything went out.
When I come to, they had me back up on the ring, on the edge of the ring, and they put the smelling
salts, that was worse than the fall was. (laughing) Put that smelling salts under my nose and I come to.
Everything was quiet when I came to and the bell rang for the 3rd round. I got back in the ring and I
kept shaking my head trying to get my head clear but I couldn't get my head clear. And my trainer
didn't have sense enough to throw the towel in and see if I was hurt. So I just turned and laid across the
ropes and they called the fight. That was the end of my fighting career. (laughing) I wrestled during
that time. I used to sing at amateur night at the Virginia Theater. You remember that? And then I sang
at banquets at the old Dumas Hotel.
LW: Did you play an instrument too?
FP: Naw. I had a fellow, James Henrdick (??). He used to play the guitar for me.
LW: What kinds of songs did you sing?
FP: Well, I used to sing a song called – A lot of Western songs I sung during that time. Old Saddle in
the Old Corral. And I forget the other songs. Anyway, I won the amateur night program up there.
0.25.07.9
LW: What was the prize?
FP: I think it was $50. And they used to have it every other week at the Strand Theater, right across
from High Street Church. Y'all don't remember when they had the High Street Church right there
where the N&amp;W building is now. Right there. They had a theater, a big theater was right there.
LW: So were they packed houses? Tell me about the audiences.
FP: Oh yeah. 'Cause you could get in for 10 cents. The movie wasn't but 10 cents. Hot dogs were 5
cents, soda 5. You could go out with 50 cents, boy, you could do a whole lot.
LW: Did you see shows at the Dumas and other performers?
FP: I used to go when Duke Ellington used to come here and Lionel Hampton. I used to get in free.
Me and a friend of mine, we used to dress like some of the – back in them times, I don't know whether
you remember they had these things called Zoot Suits. I used to put on my Zoot Suit, had a long chain
that come down here. (laughing) And we'd go ask the – When the musical guys would come up with
the band and things, we'd ask if they wanted us to help them carry 'em in. So we would help and carry
'em in and get in and we got in free. They thought we were with the band. (laughing) Me and a boy
called Pie Samuel (??) We got in free. Most of all of the activities down at the Civic Center. It was the
5

�American Legion they called it during that time. Right across from the old N&amp;W station. That's where
it was.
LW: Were the audiences all black or were there whites in the audience too?
FP: White was - When Cab Calloway and Jimmy Lawrence and all those bands come here, the negros
were down on the floor and the whites were up in the balcony. They were segregated. The whites,
they'd come fill the back up just to see the bands and things and see us dance. (laughing)
LW: I was gonna ask.
FP: And see us dance. When a white band would come, if negros wanted to see it, they could go down
and sit in the balcony and white people would watch the band and hear the music.
LW: Do you have a favorite that you heard?
FP: My favorite was Duke Ellington. That was my favorite. I don't know whether you remember
Duke Ellington. That was my favorite. And Duke Ellington and Lionel Hampton and all those bands.
They used to come here all the time.
LW: So where did they stay when they came?
FP: The Dumas Hotel. Right up there at the Dumas.
LW: You said you visited the library when you were a little boy, tell me about that.
FP: Yeah. It wasn't like this. I know they done remodeled this. (laughing) It wasn't nothing like this I
tell you that now. And Miss Lee, was down here and her husband was the head of the YMCA, Mr. Lee.
And that was up on 3rd Avenue then. It wasn't over here on Orange Avenue. In later years after I joined
the – I don't know if you've heard of the Dukes and Earls. I tell you who's got the place now, we sold it
to them after some years. We bought a place out in Kingstown and I tell you who's got it now – They
have parties and banquets and different things out there. This guy was a coach at William Byrd - See it
advertised every Sunday. Malone's Peake. We used to own that. The club Dukes and Earls, we owned
it from 1960 up until we sold it. I was the President of the club for 5 or 6 years up until most of the
guys got old.
LW: So it was a membership club?
FP: Membership, yeah.
LW: Did you have entertainment come or it was just a place to get together?
0.29.47.1
FP: No, we would get together but we would have entertainment but it would be at the Civic Center have formal dances and dances and things like that. But the place wasn't big enough to do that but we
would have parties and things out there, New Years, Christmas and different stuff like that. It was a
social club. But we had, in later years, we had moved it into stock. Everybody had stock in it. And as
the members died out, we had to pay them out of the stock. And usually most of the time it was $4,500
and we couldn't stay after members dying out, things got pretty hectic. So, I decided we were going to
sell it. Some of them didn't. So I got enough guys together and we sold it to Malone. Its beautiful.
You ought to see it. Its beautiful.
LW: Where is it then?
FP: Out in Kingstown. Right out from Holiday Inn, Airport Holiday Inn. Its about a block or two
blocks from Holiday Inn, Malone's Peake. But its really – You see it on sometimes on Sunday be
advertised for picnics and all that stuff like that. But its real nice.
LW: Tell me about – You said you – You started to tell me about the military and taking the men up to
New Jersey. So you joined which branch of the service?
FP: I volunteered for the Navy. I wanted to into the Army but they wasn't taking any blacks in the
Army here in Roanoke so I had to go to Fort Belvoir in Washington. So when I got up there, I went
over and they sent me over to a building and they said, “You're not any in trouble are ya?”. I mean I
wanted to volunteer. They thought maybe I wanted to get into the Army to get away from something. I
told 'em, “No, I just wanted to – Some of my friends had joined and I wanted to join.”.
6

�LW: And about what year was this?
FP: 1936. In 1936. When the war broke out, I said they're gonna want to draft me in the Army and I'm
not going in the Army so I volunteered for the Navy. I was working at the Silk Mill. They told me if I
could pass this test. I went down to the post office, “We'll send you to the Seaman Branch”. They had
opened up the Seaman Branch for – During that time, they didn't have nothing in the Navy but stewards
and ship's cook. I said, “I know I can do something better than that.”. They opened up the Seaman
Branch. Secretary Knox was the Secretary of the Navy during that time and they opened the Seaman
Branch up so I passed the test. They sent me to Richmond. I was sworn in in Richmond. I went down
on Monday and Wednesday, I was in Chicago, Great Lakes. (laughing) Just that quick. They sent me
to Richmond and we got sworn in down there and we got on a train, a bunch of us, and left and went to
Chicago. I went through boot camp. I think I was in the 12th Company. During that time, you went
through the Great Lakes, Illinois up there. And then what they did, they says – They had a service
school that you could go to and strike for your rating at Hampton, Hampton Institute and different
places you know or you could go in the outgoing unit. So I took the outgoing unit. If you take the
outgoing unit, that means you go and work by hand instead of studying in the school with the products.
So I was on the mine depot down in Yorktown. A lot of the guys from Chicago, they went in the
service school down at Hampton. And when they graduated from Hampton through their course, I was
a 3rd Class Petty Officer. They said, “How did you get up...?” - And half the guys that went down there,
only 25% of the class came out rated in school. I went and struck for my rating. I went and worked
with ______, mines depot and all that. I was a 3rd Class Petty Officer when they came out of school.
(laughing) And I was on the base – I don't know whether you remember the base blew up, the whole
base blew up down there in Yorktown. And what happened, the Tarpex (??) plant, the stuff that they
used in torpedoes. That stuff was dangerous. That place – In fact, I had been out to the USO, I came in
and was in the Petty Officer Quarters. We had different quarters than the rest of them, the officers did.
I was in there and getting ready to go to bed, and just as I am about to get in the bed, a light blaze went
straight up – I was looking out the window, looked like about a mile high in the air. And then that
whole peninsula shook. So I thought the Japanese had just struck. (laughing) Somebody had
sabotaged it and blew up the place down there. My mother was in Washington. She was looking for
me that weekend. She was scared to death thought maybe I had got hurt. Only 5 people got killed.
They had civilians working at these plants. They sent all of 'em home that evening for the night shift
and told 'em to come back the next morning. It was a good thing they did. They knew that somebody
had got in there. 'Cause somebody had knocked – One of the marines on the gate they had knocked
him in the head and they had go into the place. But they had all these magazines all out. You could go
down to Williamsburg and go down through there, you can look over and see these humps in the
ground. That's where they kept the ammunition, called it magazines, that's what they called it. They
kept all this ammunition stored in these humps. This is right down there now. On the train, you could
see it when the train goes through. So, they wouldn't let no Navy personnel go out to the scene. There
was a Marine there at night guarding at night. He was about 200 yards from where the explosion was
and it busted both his eardrums and twisted his rifle in his hand, like that. And the railroad cars sitting
around this building with the doors closed, the concussion just boost the side of the cars out like that.
Looks like somebody just pushed 'em out, you know, to the side, And all the automobiles down there,
it just sucked the tops right into the seat. We were right on the base there at Yorktown and then Norfolk
got a worser shock than we did. The concussion followed the water towards Norfolk. They got it
worse. We were right there where it was but they got the worst end of it in Norfolk. They sent a party
out the next day, we went down to see. It looked like all the trees around there, looked like somebody
just took something to skin 'em. And some of them big railroad car wheels were found a half a mile
from the explosion. Lo and behold, at Treasure Island down in California, that same plant, another
plant with the same thing blew up. I'm telling you, it was awful that day. And there were 5 guys that
7

�got killed. It was one of 'em from Roanoke. Miss – What was her name? - Her – She was a teacher at
Addison. She taught Home Ec at Addison. Her brother got killed. He lived down at Gloucester Point
but he worked on the base and 4 other guys. And the only thing they found, they found one head burnt
and hand in a glove. That's all they found.
0.37.51.6
LW: Let me pull you back to Gainsboro. I want to ask you, when you were young, were there any
adults – who were important people in your life that - ?
FP: Well, Mr. Lee was one at the Y.
LW: Did you spend a lot of time a the Y?
FP: Oh yeah.
LW: Is that where your boxing developed?
FP: The boxing developed – John Archie – We used to live right – Let's see, where's the Claytor home,
right here, right across there. Well there was a big building. The Y was right across from the Claytors.
The drug store was right there on the corner and the Y was right there and we trained upstairs and Mr.
Lee, upstairs, that's where we trained at, upstairs on the 3rd floor. He and Mr. Lee and – Who else was
it? - Coach Lawson who was a coach at Addison at that time back then 'cause I played football over
there at Addison. Let me see. Who else was there? Undertaker Clark, I don't know whether you –
years ago, the undertaker used to be right over there on the corner of 7th Avenue, undertaker Clark.
LW: How did you know him?
FP: Know who?
LW: Mr. Clark.
FP: Well, back in the day, in fact, everybody knew Clark 'cause during that time him and this other
undertaker – There wasn't but two black undertakers here in Roanoke then. In fact, he knew everybody
just about in Roanoke. Not everybody but all the blacks. He knew all the blacks in Roanoke.
Undertaker Clark. I'm thinking of the other undertaker – Williams up on Gillam Avenue, undertaker
Williams. His wife died not too long ago, Mrs. Williams.
LW: Were there certain things that you and your friends after school, you'd go off – Was there
something you'd do or someplace you'd go or on weekends? What did you all do as kids?
0.40.04.0
FP: We didn't go nowhere on weekends. Not out of town.
LW: But I mean, did you – would you go on hikes or did you ever go camping or did you go to the
drugstore - ?
FP: We'd hang out right here on the corner at the drugstore. We used to hang out there. And
sometimes on Sunday, we used to go to Berkley's Bottom. A place called Berkley's Bottom down
below Vinton. We used to walk down there and there's a creek. We used to go and swim in it. We
didn't have no swimming pool, not then. Later years, they got the swimming pool right up here on,
right across from the Y. You can see part of it there now, the cement part. Part of the swimming pool
was right there. Because there wasn't no road going through there then. Nothing but a dirt road going
up through there.
LW: How'd you learn to swim?
FP: In the creek. (laughing) Down at Berkley's Bottom. That's how I learned how to swim. Of
course you had to know how to swim to get in the Navy anyway. You had to pass the test. When you
went there, they'd tell ya, “Jump in here and swim all the way around and back up and get out.” They
said all those who could swim didn't have to take the test and we had some there that had never went in
the water in their life and they hauled off and jumped off that thing into the water and the man had to
go get 'em. (laughing) He told 'em, “I said, the ones who knew how to swim.”. They'd teach you how
to jump. You don't dive off of no ship. If your ship get blowed up, you don't dive off no ship, you
jump feet first. They teach you to jump feet first. 'Cause you can dive off and hit your head on some of
8

�the debris in the water and drown so you jumped feet first. I caddied. I was 11 years old. That was
another thing I did, I caddied out at Old Monterey, 11 years old. That's how I got into golf. I used to
make 2 rounds of 18/36 holes on Sunday. I'd get $2.50 for each 18 holes of golf.
LW: So that was pretty good money.
FP: It was good money for an 11 year-old youngster back then. And then the guys would tip you
pretty good, maybe $.50 or a quarter. That was good money.
LW: So what did you do with your money?
FP: Well, I'll tell ya. Then I had job down on Salem Avenue with Mr. Filian (??). I shined shoes. I
used to shine shoes down on Salem Avenue at his barber shop. I bought my first suit that my mother
didn't have to buy for me. It was at Joe Stein's over on Jefferson Street. A clothing store called Joe
Stein's. I bought my first suit. I was crazy about that suit. Hung it up down there in the room and my
sister had gotten mad with me for something. No, she was up the street playing with the boys. She was
kinda tomboyish. My mother said, “Go up there and get her.”. I went and got me a switch and went up
there and hit her a couple of times to run her home. The next morning, I got up and went back to look
at my suit hanging up behind the door and it was in shreds, the first suit I ever bought in my life. She
done took a knife and just shredded it. So I told my momma, “If you don't kill her, I am.”. (laughing)
LW: What happened? Was she punished?
FP: Oh yeah, she was punished. (laughing)
LW: How long did it take – How long before you got another suit?
FP: I don't remember how long it was. It was my first suit. Every time I'd get a dollar or two dollars,
I'd go up there and put it on my suit, layaway, you know, 'til I got that suit. First suit I ever bought in
my life. My sister messed that suit up right quick 'cause she knew I was crazy about that suit.
LW: What other memories can you tell me about, young and being at home with your mother? What
kinds of chores did you all do around the house?
FP: I did most of the scrubbing, helped my mother wash. I did most everything. My brother didn't.
He was always in school. In fact, he was older than I am 'cause when I got a job at the Silk Mill, I
helped pay his education in Hampton. 'Cause each one of us kids, when my father got killed, we got so
much money a month until we reached the age of 18 through the pension. And my mother got a
pension as long as she lived and as long as she didn't marry anymore. Now if she had married then the
pension was stopped. So she raised all 5 of us and never married again. He finished school and got his
Doctorate. He worked at the VA for a while. He left here and went to Massachusetts after he finished
Hampton and got his Doctorate and all up at Boston University. After he retired, he went down to
Norfolk State. They wanted him at Hampton but he said by being retired, it was too much work at
Hampton. But he was the president of the Hampton Alumni. He traveled all over the United States.
0.45.30.1
LW: Did your sisters finish their schooling or -?
FP: No. My sister, younger sister, she worked for Miss Fenerum. (??)
LW: What was your sister's name?
FP: Her name was Bernice. She worked up in Connecticut for one of the richest real estate – In fact,
she raised all of their children, my sister did. She went there and got this job. The husband, Mr.
Fenerum and Mrs. Fenerum, both of 'em was alcoholics. They had 5 kids. One set of twins and they
were 18 months old. And then the other, Joe and the other two girls, there were 5 of them kids. And
my sister took over that and when she went to work for the Fenerums, they took them out there on
stretcher both the man and the wife. Put them in this - what do you call it? - Rehab or something. She
stayed there and raised – They were millionaires. She raised them kids until they got grown my sister
did. Then they bought this town in Washington. In fact, they own about the whole town in – Its a
shopping center – What's the name of that shopping center right out of Washington? - I see it on TV
sometimes. Anyway, they built all these shopping centers over at this place, Mr. Fenerum. And my
9

�sister, when she moved back to Roanoke, Mrs. Fenerum, they came here to the funeral when she died.
And the children and all, all of 'em came. They was about the richest family in the Connecticut in real
estate. I used to take my kids up there. We used to go on vacation. My niece was living up there. We
used to go up there and stay with them and go out on the Cape and they had their own private beach
and everything. We used to go out there and my kids used to play with their kids and have a good time.
(laughing)
LW: Tell me more about when you were young. Were holidays important in your household?
Christmas, Easter, and Thanksgiving.
FP: Oh yeah.
LW: Did you have extended family that came from the Bedford area or -?
FP: Not really. When we moved back to Roanoke, some of 'em moved here to Roanoke. My cousin
and all, they moved from Bedford to Roanoke. It wasn't too much for us to have a good Christmas.
We got a little something with 5 kids and nobody but the mother to raise. She raised all 5 of us by
herself.
LW: Was Christmas meal, was that special? Christmas dinner?
FP: Oh yeah. I still carry on the tradition of Thanksgiving. I always have Thanksgiving dinner for the
family. And then my niece, she has Christmas dinner for the family. I was marking down here the
other day how many people were there, and it was about 16. (laughing)
LW: For Thanksgiving?
FP: Uh huh.
LW: So, what's on the menu? And you cook this?
FP: Oh yeah, I cook everything. I got turkey, ham, chiterlings, that was the meat. And what else do
we have? Chicken. And greens, collard greens, string beans. I already got my string beans done and
frozen in the box. Potato salad – ranch potatoes. You ever eat a ranch potato?
LW: Tell me. What are they?
FP: You take red potatoes and cut 'em in blocks and cook 'em. And then you put a layer of that, a layer
of cheese and a layer of ranch dressing and then build it up and then you run it in the stove. You talk
about something good. (laughing)
LW: Cheddar cheese? What kind of cheese?
FP: Sharp cheese. And corn pudding. I don't make the corn pudding, my niece makes a better corn
pudding than I do. I can make it but my mother taught my niece how to make corn pudding. I was at
Kroger's the day before yesterday, they got this canned corn on sale, 10 for $5 so I got the crushed corn
and then whole corn and you mix it. But I can make it but it looks like to me, hers is better than mine.
(laughing) And then I got pumpkin pie, sweet potato pie, pound cake. (laughing) I got my pound
cakes already ready. And I already got my crust, that Pillsbury crust and I got to get my sweet potato.
(laughing)
0.50.34.3
LW: And you've been doing that for years?
FP: Oh, I've been doing that ever since my mother passed. My mother has been dead now about 15 or
16 years. I've been doing it every Thanksgiving.
LW: So, before that, you all went to your mother's then?
FP: Oh yeah.
LW: See, my mother lived right across the street. She bought a house right across the street from me.
I used to live on Thomas, up the street. So I sold that house and built another one right across from my
mother. I think it was '65, I built it. And I'm still there now. A guy told me one time, he said, a fellow I
worked with at the Silk Mill, I told him I was getting ready to build a house and he said, “Don't do like
I did.” He built this big house and he had 3 kids. He said in less than 15 years, they were in there by
theirself, him and his wife. He said, “Don't build no big house.”. I said, “Well, I've got 3 kids.”. He
10

�said, “Just build it big enough to get by. In less than 15 years, you're gonna be there by yourself.”.
And he was true to that. And I built a 5 room brick. Its got 2 bedrooms, living room, den and kitchen
and a bathroom upstairs and the basement is finished. One side, I got a couple of refrigerators and
freezer, washer and dryer and all of that. And on this side, I got a bookcase, a television and the bar.
The guy took the bricks left from the house where he built the house and he built me a bar. His name
was James Richardson, worked with Red Charlton (??). He's a good bricklayer. They built the Lawson
Building. They laid the brick for the Lawson Building. He made me a bar. A nice long bar. Seats 6
people at the bar. Now, I was there by myself after my wife died and all the kids had gone. My
youngest son, he was living up on Staunton and so after him and his wife separated, my daughter and
my oldest son said, “Why don't you let Buster come back home with you. You ain't got no business
being there by yourself.”. So I thought about that thing and I told him. I said to him, “Its up to him, if
you want to come back. You can come back if you want to.”. People ask me, “Mr. Pendleton, when
you gonna get married?”. I said, “Get married? I ain't marrying nobody else.”. I said, “What I got
here is going to my kids. Ain't nobody gonna come in here and take that away from 'em.”. And he
moved back and he's a big help. He cuts grass and wash dishes. He says, “Don't worry, I'll clean up
the dishes.”. And he will. And when I had this big party, after I done finished cooking, I go sit down.
They do all that. My daughter and all of 'em and my granddaughter, they come in and wash up all the
dishes and clean up and everything. I don't do nothing after that. (laughing) I just sit back.
LW: You said that when you were 11 years old, you were a golf caddie so did you learn to play then?
And you still play?
FP: Up on Diamond Hill, there's a man that worked at N&amp;W who had a little 3 or 4 hole golf, putting
green up there in his yard.
LW: Do you remember his name?
FP: Lawson, Mr. Lawson. And I'll never forget him. He worked at N&amp;W and he drove a Chrysler 77.
Thing made like a box back then. I don't know what model it was but I was a youngster during that
time and he had this beautiful, I thought it was the prettiest car I ever seen. It was built just like the
Hummer. You know how the Hummer in a block, well, that's the way it looked. Chrysler 77. They
don't make 'em no more. I don't know when they stopped making 'em. It was battleship gray. I'll never
forget that. And we used to go up there and putt around up there until after – and then when I got into
golf, Dr. Claytor, out at Kingstown, he had this farm out there. He had a 9 hole sangreen (??) golf
course. Every Sunday after church, we used to take – golfers used to take their families, my kids and
all and have a picnic. Take a dinner out there and play golf and eat. And Miss Carter – Do you
remember Miss Carter who used to run the nursing home? She would come out and cook every
Sunday. (laughing)
0.55.25.2
LW: How many people came?
FP: Oh it was a good 20 or 30 people. She would fry chicken and all that out there at Claytor farm. Its
called Claytor farm. You know Dr. Claytor, you know his sons and all. All of them played golf and
we'd go there every Sunday. We'd take our Sunday dinner out there and we'd play golf and there was a
swimming pool and everything out there. It was real nice.
LW: We're about to wrap it up. Is there any last thing that you want to tell me that I didn't ask about or
-?
FP: Let's see. I don't remember. Oh, you know about over at the graveyard. We used to play down in
there at the bottom part of the First Baptist Church Graveyard. That belonged to the First Baptist
Church. I guess y'all know that. And the city part was up a little further where they made the come off
the interstate right there at Orange Avenue, cut up through there. That was the city's graveyard. When
they cut up through there, they found bones and bodies. They just put 'em in a box. I don't know
where they carried it. Buried it somewhere else. But, First Baptist graveyard is still there.
11

�LW: So, as boys you used to go down there and play?
FP: We used to play right in the flat part in the graveyard. We used to play down there 'til 10-11
o'clock at night. And my brother – I'll never forget it – he tried to scare us. He got a white sheet and
went around and come up behind one of the tombstones with this white sheet on. (laughing) We
weren't scared. We got some rocks and started rocking him. (laughing) He was hollering, “Hey! This
is me.”. (laughing) He was gonna scare us. He got this sheet and come down through there and we
was throwing rocks at him.
LW: Well, thank you so much FP: Right down there – I don't know whether y'all know it – that was where the motel right across,
right there – That was a dump. That was the dump. They dumped trash and everything down there and
then they covered it over with dirt after the years and then they built the PiLWa Hut and a trucking
company was there and Miss old lady Jabot, she owned it. She owned all that. She offered it to me,
the whole square in there where they got the hotel and a motel and all for $1,000. I said – I had the
money to buy it. My momma said, “Miss Jabot says she will sell you that for $1,000.” I said I don't
want that old dump. Well, they hadn't covered it over. I said I'm gonna buy me another automobile.
LW: So what did you buy?
FP: I bought another automobile. And so, in later years, that property was worth a whole lot of money.
I let it get away from me. It got away and it goes to show that you really ought to look at things. And
all along Hart Avenue, there were houses, and they were selling the lots for $75. I could've bought 'em.
I was making money over at the Silk Mill but, no, I had to have another automobile.
LW: Thank you so much for FP: I was the first negro that owned a Cadillac in Roanoke.
LW: What year was that? Do you remember?
FP: I bought my first one in '47. They wouldn't even sell a negro a new Cadillac here in Roanoke.
Harry Franklin run a poolroom on Henry Street and he went to Norfolk and bought his. Miss Gill, the
lady with the stone house up there, she bought one and she went to Bluefield. J.B. Claytor bought one
and he went to Bluefield and bought his. So, the boy that worked there. I knew the boy that worked at
Cadillac. He said, “They've got a demonstrator out here and its in good shape.” That's the one they
carry around and show people. He said, “You can buy this. They'll sell you that.”. So I went in there
and bought that. Then in later years, what happened, the guy from Martinsville took over – They took
the franchise away from the guy at the Cadillac place and the guy from Martinsville took it over and he
said, “I don't care what color they was. I'll sell 'em a Cadillac.”.
LW: He was a businessman.
FP: He was a businessman.
LW: Thank you so much for talking to us this morning. I appreciate it.
FP: Oh yeah. I got another meeting to go to.

                    <text>Interviewee: Earl Reynolds, Jr.
Interviewer: Carla Lewis
Transcriber: Andrew Sterling
My name is Carla Lewis and I am the Gainsboro Branch Manager. Today is October 12, 2006. The
person that I am interviewing is Mr. Earl Reynolds, Jr. and the location is the Gainsboro Branch
Library.
CL: The first question is, when and where were you born?
ER: I was born April 7, 1951, right here in Roanoke, Virginia at Burrell Memorial Hospital.
CL: How long have you lived in the Gainsboro area?
ER: All of my life. From the time I was born until the time I left to go to college which was around
1969 and then back and forth throughout my professional working career.
CL: Can you tell us the name of the streets that you lived on when you were in the Gainsboro area?
ER: I've only lived in one location, 331 Harrison Avenue.
CL: Tell me about your parents, your brothers and sisters.
ER: Well, my dad is Earl B. Reynolds, Sr. and he was an entrepreneur in the Gainsboro community.
He was a barber and owned his own barber shop which was located on Henry Street in the Gainsboro
community. He moved the barber shop there from Park Street which is still in the greater Gainsboro
community. Most folks know it today as 5th Street. My mom is Clara Francis Ferguson Reynolds,
deceased. She was a Franklin County native. My dad met her when she was just a teenager and
courted her and waited for her to grow up and then he married her. I have 1 sister, Shirley Jean
Reynolds who still lives with my dad at 331 Harrison Avenue in the Gainsboro community.
CL: Did you have extended family living with you when you were living on Harrison Avenue in the
Gainsboro area?
ER: Yes I did. Most of the folks who lived in the Gainsboro community were nuclear in terms of
family relationships. There were grandmas and granddads and aunts and uncles all living together in
the same household. Now in my household, there was my dad, mom, my sister, myself and my dad's
mother and father, Guy Reynolds and Georgie Reynolds.
CL: Describe your house for us? For instance, was it brick and did you have a large garden? That
kind of thing.
ER: The house is brick. It was built in 1921 by my uncle, Aby Reynolds who was the first president
and obviously a member of the founding group of the Roanoke Branch of the NAACP. And he worked
for the railroad. He was a Pullman porter. He also was a barber. He taught my dad the barbering
business when he was a kid and brought him along and, when he passed away, he willed the house to
my dad as well as the barber business.
CL: What kind of activities did you participate in?
ER: Oh boy. There was a lot to do in the community. From a school perspective, there were like afterschool programs. There was the Gainsboro Branch Library. There was the Hunton (??) YMCA. There
were activities sponsored by the community churches and other groups and organizations. So, we
stayed pretty busy.
CL: What kind of work have you done throughout your life?
ER: Well, my dad, at the age of 5, decided to bring me slowly into the business. So at the age of 5, he
started to take me over to the barber shop and allow me to do such things as sweep the floor, shine
shoes, those kinds of things. Of course, I was kinda short and I was really pudgy. I was a heavy little
kid. So, back in those days, the sodas were in bottles. They came in bottles. One of the famous sodas,
of course, was Coke and my dad had a Coke machine in the barber shop and they would always bring
the bottles in these wooden crates. So, I would take the bottles out of the crates and I would stack the
1

�crates up so I could stand on them to do things like wash the windows, the mirrors in the barber shop
so the barbers could see what they were doing and things like that. As I got older, I established a very
successful shoe shine business on Henry Street. If you ask most people who came along during the
time that I did, they would say that one of their memories would be of getting their shoes shined in my
dad's barber shop. One of my memories is shining the shoes of famous entertainers that stayed at the
Hotel Dumas. One in particular was James Brown. He brought his revue to town and they were
playing the Star City Auditorium which was located on Henry Street and I guess I was about 7 or 8
years old. And he came out of the hotel with his entourage, you know, his valets and bodyguards and
all those people. And right across the street from the hotel was my dad's barber shop and next door to
my dad's barber shop was Kaiser's Music Shop/Record Shop that served primarily the black community
although they had customers from all over town. And the first place he went was in the record shop.
And he actually signed an autographed picture for the owners who were Mr. and Mrs. Kaiser.
Napoleon and Louise Kaiser owned and operated that business. So he signed a picture for them. And
they had this big display board in the record shop where they displayed the pictures of all the
entertainers that came in and had the signatures on the pictures. And, obviously, he wanted to find out
how his record sales were going for certain records that he had out on the market at that time. Then he
left there and he came in the barber shop. Well, he had his own personal valet so he didn't need a
haircut. They took care of him from head to toe. And he did not need a shoe shine. But, when he was
growing up, he shined shoes and so he looked at me and he said, “Would you shine my shoes?”. And I
looked at his shoes and I said, “But they don't need to be shined”. And he looked at me and he says,
“Well just shine them anyway”. And so he got up on my shoeshine stand and I shined his shoes all
over again and he got down and he looked at me and he said, “Thank you very much”. And he said,
“What do you want to be when you grow up?”. And I said, “I don't know yet”. And he said, “Stay in
school. Get your education.”. And he handed me a 5 dollar bill. Now, in those days, this was like
1958/1959, $5 was a lot of money. And so his entourage took him out and he went back to the hotel
and, of course, he prepared himself for his show that night. Extremely, extremely impressive man, very
business-like, very organized. When they arrived on Henry Street, it was a – He arrived in a
spectacular way. They arrived on Henry Street with about 8 brand new travel buses. The band, his
entourage, the other entertainers that performed with him, all traveled in those buses. And, of course,
he had his own bus, his very own bus that had his bedroom and his bathroom and his dressing room
and all those things. They parked those buses on Henry Street and that was just some kind of sight to
behold when they came across Henry Street. People just came out of the shops. I mean, the world just
stopped, you know, when the James Brown Revue arrived on Henry Street.
0.10.17.9
CL: Earl, what kind of work have you done throughout your life? You started telling us about your
shoeshine business and all the different things that you've done, continue your life. Bring us forth.
ER: Well, one of the things that you learn by hanging around the barber shop is the work ethic and
everybody worked. There was – If you didn't work, people kinda looked at you like, “What's the
problem” because everyone could get a job doing something. So I worked at my dad's barber shop
shining shoes. He taught me how to cut hair, although I never professionally cut hair. I would “bootleg
it” as they call it. I would cut hair after 5 o'clock and it was generally just be my closest friends. I
worked at Kaiser's Record Shop right next door to my dad's barber shop. I also worked a couple of
other places on Henry Street just doing odd jobs for some of the other business people. I worked at a
hardware store selling Christmas trees during the Christmas holiday. Now I did that in addition to
working in my dad's barber shop. During the winter months – The weather/climate has changed a lot
here in Roanoke but in the winter months, we always had snow. We had lots of snow. Of course, the
shoe shine business kinda got put on hold. So you've got to find something else to do to supplement
your income. So working at the hardware store was like supplementing my income during the winter
2

�months. One of my primary jobs was in December and I would organize the Christmas tree lot and
this was right on Shenandoah Avenue, still in the greater Gainsboro community. I would organize the
Christmas tree lot. I would receive the trees, the shipments when they came in and I would sell 'em. I
was pretty good at it. (chuckle) Every year, they would call me and they said, “Do you want to work
in December?” and I said, “Yeah”. Whatever you could do to earn money. When I was in high school,
I worked for the City of Roanoke and that was back in the days when they weren't all that particular, I
don't guess, about ages and all that kind of thing. So I worked for Public Works, the Sanitation
Division and that's how I learned the city was from the back of a garbage truck. I ran every route in the
city. I knew every street. I knew every alley. I knew every nook and cranny in the city and I did that
all the way through college. As a matter of fact, I did it for 3 months after I finished college because I
came home, my degree was in education. I wanted to teach but they didn't have any teaching positions.
And again, everybody works. You don't sit around the house. And so, I didn't have a car so I got on
my bicycle and I rode down to the Public Works Division and I saw the foreman that I had worked with
for years. His name was Melvin Matthews and I said, “Melvin, I need a job”. He said, “But Earl, you
just finished college”. I said, “Melvin, I need a job”. And he said, “I will let you work only if you
promise that you'll get out there and find a job, something in line with your education”. And I said,
“Deal.”. So I worked for Melvin for about 2 ½ months and then I was hired at the Norfolk and Western
Railroad in the Car Records Office right over here on Jefferson Street. And I only worked for them for
30 days and I got a letter from the State University of New York at Albany. It had kinda found me.
They sent the letter to my old address in Fayetteville, North Carolina, where I went to undergraduate
school. And they had to kinda find me. It finally made its way back here to Roanoke and it said, “If
you're still interested in coming to graduate school, come on, you've got a full scholarship and a
stipend” So I went to my supervisor at the railroad and I said, “I'm leaving.”. And he tried to talk me
into staying because back in those days, railroad jobs were gold. People fought for those jobs and I
was voluntarily giving up a railroad job. He said, “Your next step is to go into the management
program”. He said, “The sky's the limit. Stay with the railroad.” I said, “Bye.”. And so I packed my
bags again and, again, this was a family thing. My mother and her two brothers drove me to Albany,
New York because my mother – Because they had a sister - Still have a sister that lives in Brooklyn,
New York. So, they kinda made it a family thing. They took me to school, dropped me off and then
they went down to Brooklyn to visit their sister and then they came back to Roanoke. And that was
quite an experience.
0.16.38.9
CL: After graduating from graduate school ER: I came back to Roanoke and I went to work for George Franklin at the OICs of America which
was located under the, I think it was the east-end of the old Victory Stadium complex. I worked for
George for about a year. I learned a lot there working for him. George was a very enterprising person.
His executive assistant was the late Greta Evans. That's when I first met Greta. His complex manager
was Mr. John Divers who's still living. Mr. Divers has been with me part of my life for a number of
years. We are related and my memory of him was he was the head maintenance person at Booker T.
Washington Junior High School. He worked for the school system. Back in those days, the staff, the
support staff at the schools were an integral part of the school family and they would get involved in
discipline and coaching and mentoring and all different kinds of things. I recall seeing him everyday
and his only question was, “Are you behaving yourself?”. And I said, “Yes sir.”. And he said, “OK.”
because I know he'd tell my mom if I wasn't. So anyway, Mr. Divers worked there and many other
people who lived in or who had roots in the Gainsboro community. I worked for George for a year and
then I left and went to Martinsville, Virginia, to become a Criminal Justice Planner for the West
Piedmont Planning District Commission. This was like 1975. I worked for the Planning District
Commission from 1975 until 1978. In December, 1978, I returned to Roanoke to become the Human
3

�Resources Planner for the City of Roanoke. From there, I became the Chief of Community Planning
and from there, I became the Assistant City Manager and then I left Roanoke again after 14 ½ years
with the city. I left Roanoke in February of '92 to become the City Manager of Martinsville, Virginia. I
thought I would only do that for a couple of years and then maybe come back to Roanoke or some
other community and I ended up staying in Martinsville 3 months shy of 12 years. So, I had a pretty
long run there. So, I arrived back in Roanoke in December – December seems to be a month for me – I
arrived back in Roanoke in December, 2003, to assume the post of Deputy Executive Director of the
Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority. So, I'm back.
0.20.35.4
CL: Let's talk a little bit about your school life. You told us about some of the education that you have
had, but let's go back to elementary school and talk a little bit about the schools that you attended.
ER: Great time. Good people. Again, very community oriented, community focused because the
teachers and the support staff either lived in or had roots in the Gainsboro community. First grade,
Mrs. Turpin. Second grade, Mrs. Turpin. Third grade, Mrs. Clark. Fourth grade, Mrs. Stovall, Elaine
Stovall. Fifth grade, Mrs. Holland. Sixth grade, Mrs. Patterson. And, of course, there were other
instructors involved in my education as well. Memorable among those was a gentleman by the name of
John Dillon and Mrs. McCatt (??)who taught Home Economics and in her class, I made my mother an
apron. My mother is deceased now but that apron is still at 331 Harrison Avenue in the drawer. And
every now and then, I get it out and look at it. Then Booker T. Washington Junior High School – By
the way, the schools were positioned so we could walk. There was no busing. So I walked to Harrison.
I walked to Booker T. Booker T. was 7th, 8th, and 9th grade. Back in those days, again, junior high
school, they don't call it that anymore. A place, kind of an incubator. The Principal was Mr. Sid Norr.
The Vice Principal was Mr. Austin who also lived on Harrison Avenue in Gainsboro. So he was like
right down the street. Teachers that I recall of note, Mrs. Allen, Mrs. Moore, Mrs. Poindexter/Eunice
Poindexter. I took speech and grammar and I shall never forget the first day in her class. She was an
elegant lady and a very well-spoken lady. She looked at us and she said, “Class, my name is Mrs.
Poindexter”. And she said, “Repeat that”. And the entire time I was in her class, the thing that she
stressed was that you have to have a mastery of the King's English. She was – Anyway, she made a big
impression on me. The late Mr. Perry was a homeroom teacher of mine as well as a Science teacher.
Mrs. Coleman, Sally T. Coleman. Mrs. Ennis (??) taught me French. You know you always leave out
somebody but there are many, many others. Mr. Chubb, I was in his class. He would often-times say,
“Reynolds, see me after school.”. I was in his after-school class for cutting up sometimes. A memory
there is in Lincoln Terrace, now called the Villages at Lincoln. But in the Lincoln Terrace community,
there was a store, called Neighbors Confectionery and family-owned, Mr. and Mrs. Neighbors. They
had the best hot dogs in the city, at least we thought so. We planned the great escape. It was about 6 of
us and we planned a circuitous route to the store at lunch time so we could have hot dogs and in order
to get back to the next class and not be missed or detected. Now, of course, there were a lot of eyes
around the school, one of them being – The biggest hurdle we had was to get past John Divers. John
Divers was always watching to make sure that kids weren't leaving the campus when they weren't
supposed to. Somehow or another, we thought we got past Mr. Divers. He saw us and reported it to
the office and Mr. Austin, Lloyd Austin, shows up at the store. We had just finished eating those hot
dogs and he walks in and he's got the “board of education”. And he says, “OK, get out here and line
up”. And so we came out of the store and we lined up. And he walked us back down that hill into the
office where we got a paddling for being off campus and then we had to sit there while each parent was
called. My mother and dad worked. So, my dad had to leave the barber shop and come get me because
I got suspended for the remainder of the day. And, needless to say, that was not something that I
wanted to have to face my dad to account for that. So, the hot dogs were good but, it was a terrible
price to pay for what happened after that. Then from Booker T., - Let me make sure I didn't forget
4

�anybody from Booker T. (pause) - Mr. Jones had a business in the community, he was a brick layer but
he was also a Shop teacher at Booker T. There were two Shop teachers. One was Mr. Atkinson and he
taught woodworking and that kind of thing and then there was another Shop teacher that taught us the
masonry trade, how to work with concrete and bricks and that kind of thing. He also had a business
where he did that for contractors and I will think of his name is just a minute. Moving on to Lucy
Addison High School. That was a big deal. I got to take you back to when I was a kid, sitting on the
sidewalk in front of the house on Harrison Avenue, 4 or 5 years old. The highlight of the day, I'd get up
every morning just to sit out there and watch the kids walk to Lucy Addison because that was a goal.
That was a dream to attend Lucy Addison High School. They were always well-dressed, books in
hand. Some of the young men carried the young ladies books, those kinds of things. You would just sit
there and you would just marvel. You just couldn't wait to grow up to go to Lucy Addison. The other
thing that kind of charged your senses was during the day – Now we're at home, we're not even old
enough to go to school, we're 4 or 5 years old – But during the day, the late Joe Finley (??) was the
band director at Lucy Addison and he developed a band that was second to none. They actually played
half-time at a pro football game in New York. My cousin was 1st Trumpet and I actually got to see him
play on national TV. They would practice during the day and you could hear them all over the
community. We would just wait and when we would hear the drums strike up, everybody sat down just
to listen to that band and during Christmas, they led the Roanoke City Christmas Parade every year,
every year. And people would just wait to see the Lucy Addison High School band. And people would
throw money at them when they marched down the street. They would actually throw money at 'em.
Of course, Mr. Finley was a very smart and enterprising man and after that happened the first year, the
second year he was prepared. He had students that came behind the band with these buckets that
picked up the money. (chuckle) And the money, of course, was used for instruments and to do other
things at the school. You arrive at Lucy Addison and, of course, you're either going to play in the band,
sing in the choir. They had also a tremendous choir that toured all over Virginia and outside of
Virginia. Or you played football or basketball. Well, I was a football player. And so, the principal was
- The late John Powers was the Assistant Principal, one of the assistant principals. Mr. Coleman was an
assistant principal. But Mr. - I'll remember it in a minute. Husa Day (??) was my homeroom teacher –
One of my homeroom teachers. It was Mr. uh – When I graduated, the principal was Julian Moore.
But when I started – I'll think of it in a minute. I knew it just a few minutes ago when I was talking
about Mr. Atkinson and the others over at Booker T. He was a great community leader, very active in
the Hunton YMCA. I'll get it in a second. There was a whole entourage of teachers at Lucy Addison.
Again, I mentioned Mr. Day was my homeroom teacher for several years. The late John Powell, Mr.
Skipper, the late Bernard Brown who was our football coach, Joe Morman football coach and also
Physical Education and Health instructor. The late Irving Cannaday (??) who also was in the
football/basketball program/Health/Physical Education and Science teacher. Mrs. Dorothy Whitton
(??) who is still living across the street from Burrell Memorial Hospital. She taught me Algebra and
Mr. - I'll never forget – He taught me English, Grammar and Composition. I can see his face and I just
saw him a couple of days ago.
0.33.35.4
CL: Earl, don't worry about it. How much schooling did any other person in your household
complete?
ER: My dad finished Lucy Addison High School – The old Lucy Addison High School which was
Booker T. And then, of course, the high school we know as Lucy Addison sits up on the hill there on
Orange Avenue was not built and opened until 1951. Everyone went to the old high school. My mom
did not finish high school. She eventually got her GED around 1965 or 1966. My sister did not finish
high school. She eventually got her GED and then went on to get her Associates from National
Business College.

�CL: OK, I wanted to talk about your home life a little bit. Describe your home life. For instance, did
you gather around the radio, the TV or when did you get the radio, TV, telephone. Describe some of
the things that happened in your household.
ER: That was a time that you related to your grandparents. They did a lot of the child rearing because
mom and dad worked. My grandmother was always there. Everybody called her Aunt Georgie and she
was the king of what I call the tea towel. Back in the day, the older women would have this kitchen
towel that they called a teal towel. They always kept it on their shoulder because she was always
washing dishes or had her hands wet or whatever and then she'd grab this towel and dry her hands.
Well, because the towel stayed moist or damp, it was also a treacherous weapon against kids.
Whenever we got out of line, she would just pop you with that towel. That would get you back in line
real quick. She – I recall sitting with her and listening to the radio and I remember listening to Richard
Nixon and he was Vice President of the United States at that time. The President of the United States
was Dwight Eisenhower. I remember listening to them talk about Korea and what was going on in
Korea at that time. My grandfather obviously was an avid radio listener. That's what he grew up with
was radio, Guy Reynolds, and I remember listening to certain old radio shows with him, Amos and
Andy, The Shadow and those old shows that came on the radio. Also, there was always professional
boxing on the radio. I remember listening to the fight between Floyd Patterson was fighting somebody
– Sugar Ray Robinson and Dick Tiger, those boxers back in the '50s and you listened to them on the
radio. Probably the most dramatic thing I saw on TV – We had an old black and white RCA with the
rabbit ears with aluminum foil on them – I saw with my grandmother and grandfather sitting there –
saw the funeral of John Kennedy. I also saw the march on Washington and ML King's “I Have A
Dream” speech. I remember seeing that.
0.40.19.3
CL: Do you remember your parents sitting on the front porch after dinner talking to the neighbors or
just talking to the children? Could you elaborate on that just a little bit for us.
ER: Well my mother was the community welcome wagon. She was known as the surrogate parent for
all the kids. A lot of kids stayed at my house all the time. The door was always swinging. In the
evenings, I remember sitting out – Dad was always gone. - But I remember sitting out on the porch
with my mom – Well, early years, sitting out on the porch with my grandmother and grandfather and
then once my sister and I got to be teenagers, they moved. Because, you see, there were only 3
bedrooms in the house and my grandparents had a bedroom. My sister and I had a bedroom and then,
of course, my mom and dad. Well, once we got to be teenagers, my grandparents said, “They need
their own rooms.”. So they moved right behind us, right across the alley on Rutheford Avenue so my
sister and I could have our own bedrooms. Then I recall sitting out with my mom and the neighbors
next door and they would just talk and have these conversations about life and what was going on and
those kinds of things. 'Cause back in those days, children were seen and not heard so you would sit and
you would listen to these adult conversations but you never opened your mouth. That's kinda how you
learned things was to listen.
CL: Do you ever remember hearing a story about the Civil War or slavery or recipes or stories that
were passed down from generation to generation to generation?
ER: Yes.
CL: You do remember that?
ER: My grandmother and grandfather, they were from Patrick County. They were born and raised in
Patrick County. My daddy was born in Patrick County and raised there until my grandparents moved
to Roanoke. I recall my grandfather talking about working on a farm in Patrick County and actually
witnessing Klu Klux Klan activity and he and some of his friends – You know, again, my granddaddy
would take me with him downtown on the city market and he and some of his friends would stand
around and talk and, again, I'm standing there and you listen, you don't get involved with the
6

�conversation, you'd just stand there. I recall them talking about Klan activity and they referred to them
as the “Kluxers”. And they would say, “I understand that the Kluxers did this, that and the other in
some community”. And somebody would say, “Yeah, I heard about that too.”. And, of course, back
then, I'm trying to figure out – Kluxers, Kluxers, what are they talking about? - because you dare not
ask. You would just be quiet. And I also heard my grandmother talking about her experience growing
up. She came from a large family and when the girls got to be 9 or 10 years old, they knew how to
keep house. They knew how to take care of younger siblings, etc. And I remember her telling me that
her mother, that she was asked for. I said, “What does that mean?” That means that there was a
prominent lady in the community – white lady – who needed help and had heard that my grandmother
was good with children and knew how to keep house and that kind of thing. So she went to my
grandmother's mother and said, “Can I have Georgie Mildred?”. And they worked out the arrangement
and then she went to live with this lady and helped raise her children and keep her house. She said she
ran away because the lady was mean to her and she went home. She ran back home and the lady came
back and she said her mother said, “No, you can't have Georgie because you were mean to her”. And
that was a big thing back then to say no, particularly to a prominent family in the community,
Caucasian family in the community. So I do remember her talking about that.
0.45.28.5
CL: Did you, your spouse, siblings or children serve in the military?
ER: No. Back during the days of Vietnam, I was in college. Now, I was subject to the draft but I think
it was two things that kept me out of the draft. Number one, I was in college. And number two, I was
my dad's only son. And back then, they would put you in a special category if you were the only
surviving male in the family.
CL: What is your fondest childhood memory?
ER: Probably Christmas in Gainsboro. It was just spectacular, the decorations – You know, again, the
climate has changed quite a bit, global warming or whatever they want to call it. I mean, we really had
winters and they would most of the time, somewhere around Christmas, there would be snowfall. So,
just gearing up for the holiday season, the cooking, the smells, the community and church activities
around the holidays were always very, very nice.
CL: What are some of your memories of the Gainsboro Library?
ER: Oh boy. (chuckling) Mrs. Lee who also lived on Harrison Avenue. She lived about 5 houses
down from me and I would see her every day. She would walk to work, of course, down Harrison
Avenue right over here to the library and the many, many programs that she initiated for us. More
particularly, the reading programs. That was her number one thing is that, if you're going to survive –
If you can't read, you can't learn. And so, she was very regimented about that and created a lot of
programs to entice us, to encourage us to read. One of the programs that I recall was what we called
the “Gold Star Program”. Every time you read so many books, you got a gold star. And it was on the
board right over here. She had a board and she had all the kids names on it. And whenever you read so
many books, you'd get a gold star. And then at the end of a certain reading period, whoever had the
most stars would get some type of recognition. Of course, I was very competitive so I was always
trying to hang in there and win that prize, whatever it was. That door would swing every day. I'd be in
here every day. And she said, “Earl, are you sure you read these books?”. And I said, “Yes ma'am”.
And she said, “Come over here.”. Now see, you learned the librarian reads also. And the books that I
would select, she would always, either she had read them or she had some knowledge of them and so
she would talk to me about the books to make sure that I wasn't cheating. That I had actually read these
books. And see, the word gets around that Mrs. Lee is going to ask you about these books. So you
can't just read the first chapter and the last chapter and take the book back to the library. You know,
you've got to read it from cover to cover. Just coming down here and being exposed to that kind of
mentoring meant a lot to all of us here in the community. And again, right across the street was the
7

�Hunton Y and there was Mr. Heller who I recall was one of the managers over there and he looked out
for us and created activities for us as well. One of my coaches – I guess you would call it Little league
football coaches, a gentleman by the name of Sammy Davis also worked there at the Y and, of course,
Mr. Keeling, the late Mr. Keeling, who also did a lot to further the programs there at the Y and to try to
move it to another level by joining with the main Y downtown. I think that happened during his
administration as well.

CL: Earl, I remember when you had a daughter. She was very little and you came to the library and
we could not believe you brought your daughter to the same library that you grew up in and the age that
she was. She was still in diapers and she was still in the carrying case. Tell us about that. And right
today, Ashley comes in, she's a law student now but when she comes home for the weekends, more
than likely, Ashley is here in the library.
ER: That's right.
CL: Getting books, reading books. So, I think you started that a long time ago. Could you elaborate
on that just a little bit because of my experience?
ER: When she was old enough to take her out into the community, I always took her with me
everywhere I went. That was back in the days before mandatory child safety seats and all that kind of
thing. (chuckling) So she rode right in the front seat of the car with me right up on the arm rest and I
would bring her here to the library because I wanted her to get accustomed to books, to learning, that
whole process of learning. One of my fondest memories is taking her up to Harrison Elementary
School. Now this was before Mrs. Thompson mounted her campaign to have the school renovated
which now houses the Harrison Museum of African-American history. So, when I took her up there to
the schoolyard, the school was vacant, abandoned and run-down. I sat her there in the schoolyard and
told her the story of Harrison Elementary School. And what it meant to me and the community and
why it was important that we do something with that building to make sure that that story continued to
be told. So, ever since – I had heard someplace, I don't know where, maybe I read it, that infants are
just incubators for learning. And even though they can't talk, if you talk to them, they understand. So,
from the time Ashley was born, I talked to her. I would tell her stories and I would take her places and
I could see that she was just like a sponge. She was absorbing this stuff and so I just kept doing it.
0.53.24.3
CL: OK. We just have one or two more questions and I would just like to ask, who were some of your
role models or community leaders when you grew up? You mentioned quite a few of them, but did you
have one or two in particular that you said, “This is my role model”?
ER: Well, there were just so many folks in the community. First of all, the older gentlemen in the
community irrespective of their jobs, were always very well-dressed so that kind of set the tone for us.
It wasn't about this walking around holding your pants up kind of stuff. It was all about presentation.
How you present yourself. And by the way, a real quick story on that. When I first got back here from
college, and was having a difficult time finding a job, one of my drawbacks was I didn't have a car. I
had an education, no car. I was riding around on the bus trying to go to places and get employment.
So, I remember something my daddy told me. My daddy always told me, “Even though you don't have
any money, you don't have to look like it”. So I put a suit and tie on and I went downtown to the bank
and I saw the loan officer, a gentleman by the name of Joe Judy. I said, “Mr. Judy, I don't have a job
yet. I'm having difficulty finding a job because of transportation. I need a car.” And he looked at me
and he said – He wrote down a name and he said, “See this gentleman up at the Buick place”, which
was at that time, it was located across from Jefferson High School on West Campbell Avenue. And so I
went up there, and I gave him that note, and he said, “Yes, Mr. Judy called and said you were on the
way.” And he said, “Do you see something that you like?”. And they had this 1973 Buick Riviera
sitting on the showroom floor. And I said, “Yeah, I like that car right there”. And the price tag on it at
8

�that time, a brand-new Buick back in those days, was $5,400. That was a lot of money. And he said,
“Come on into the office”. And he wrote it up and he got on the phone and he called Judy and in an
hour, he gave me the keys. He said, “That's your car”. I didn't even have a job. But what Mr. Judy
told me, he said, “You've got potential.”. And he said, “I knew that you would be able to pay these
notes after you got a job.” That's also a story that relates to local banking, home town banking as
opposed to the banking that we have today. The bankers knew everybody in the community and so
they were able to do those kinds of things to help families and individuals which is kind of tough today
because the banking industry has changed so much. But anyway, I was the recipient of that as well as
the recipient of the good advice of my father that, “Because you don't have any money, you don't have
to look like it”. Now back to the original question and that was other folks in the community who were
like role models. Mr. and Mrs. Barlow at the Dumas Hotel. They were a very outstanding family in
the community and particularly Mrs. Barlow took a lot of time to mentor the young people. And she
came in contact with us because at the Dumas Hotel, there was a malt shop, if you want to call it that,
and it was called Jack and Jill, named after her daughters. And we all went in there and she had an
opportunity to interact with us, and encourage us with our education and our behavior. You know, “I
saw you doing this the other day. Don't you do that any more.”. That kind of thing. Mr. and Mrs.
Kaiser of Kaiser's record shop. Business people as Mrs. Kaiser was just a tremendous lady. She also
taught me the value of reading. She would just read, read, read. Her husband worked at the VA
Medical Center but he was also an entrepreneur. He owned the record shop. So that teaches you,
again, the work ethic. That you've got to work for what you get. There was another gentleman who
owned the Palace Hotel on Henry Street. His name was Billy Salters. We called him Uncle Billy. His
business was the Jukebox business. Back in the day, you had the jukeboxes with the records in them.
You would pay your money and it would play the record, right? So he had jukeboxes in very remote
locations throughout the community that the other folks would not serve. So he kinda filled that niche.
Another person that did that built a business around filling a niche was A. Byron Smith (??). He was
another person in the community who was a very outstanding person. Connie Hamler, she was in the
real estate business. Physicians in the community. Attorneys in the community. Judge Harris, well
now he's Judge Harris but when he was an attorney on Henry Street. Attorney Lawson. Ministers in
the community, R. R. Wilkerson, E. T. Burton, Noel Taylor, just on and on. All of those folks because
they came through Henry Street and I had that kind of contact and relationship with folks that you
would always look up to.
CL: Earl, thank you. We really appreciate you coming in to interview with us. Is there anything else
you would like to tell us that we didn't ask today?
ER: I guess we kind of covered the waterfront here. So, I appreciate the opportunity.
CL: Thank you so much.
