Following a BOB RADDE-led PLEDGE, the Rotary quintet of JIM YOUNG, BILL PELOQUIN, LEROY FULTON, BOB SAVAGE, and HOWARD WOOD, appropriately cheered on the winning CSUF "TITANS" baseball team in their NCAA Championship quest.

City Father-Councilman DICK JONES got the program off with to a laugher about a man who took his wife off to a bacchanalian anniversary soiree when she said she wished she were 6 again. After a day blowing the wad on a very rich cuisine and dessert un imaginable he asked if her wants were satisfied. "No, dammit!" she cried. "I said 'Dress SIZE SIX', not age SIX YEARS".

THE PROGRAM:

CRAIG WALKER'S "CRAFT TALK".

Craig was the son of a Marine helicopter pilot who lost his life in a CH-53 Super Stallion crash in Vietnam. True to Marine Corps motto "Semper Fi", members of his crew saw to it that the Walker kids sustained a family life by being surrogate Dads. His mother later married and the new family raised four plus three kids. He grew up in many cities mostly in So. California. Although good in baseball, he found out soon that"good" in JHS wasn't "that good" in HS, so he switched to swimming and excelled. From HS he got an alternate appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy with Class of 1985. The principal appointee entered the Academy but flunked out proving that academic grades aren't the best predictors of who will be a leader. (Craig would be a CAPT, USN, now). After a try at NROTC for a shot at Naval Aviation he wound up at UCI where after an undergraduate foray in Sigma Chi he graduated and moved into a successful career in finance (portfolio management). His wife, Leese, left a higher paying job to start off at $5.00/hour in a Temecula broadcast station and zoomed to a highly successful career in broadcasting.

Obviously, a dynamic, personality plus couple. Who knows?

Craig would have been a great Navy "Blue Angel", and with a charismatic wife might someday have become DCNO Air had the Navy taken a chance on a promising alternate.

SIDEBAR: RON SODERQUIST wishes to report that the Needlework Guild" has put to excellent use the $500 Community Investment Award received from our Club.

This provided a large bolt of flannel cloth to make baby blankets, and many other items of children's clothing so essential. Rotary's generosity is much appreciated.

SEE YOU AT DEMOTION NIGHT NEXT WEDNESDAY AT FOUR POINTS INN.
