"other" teachers remembered... Posted Thursday, August 20, 2009 06:30 AM I believe we all remember Mrs. Fahey, and the wonderful Mr. keener, but how many of us remember the squeeky-voiced Jean McLean, complete with dark green gabardine skirt and seamed nylons, and the ________(fill in the blank) Max Legalie (sp), who apparentlly was quite a bowler... Actually, I am indebted to them for my first career, because I remember going to gym class and thinking that it should be a fun class and for me, it wasn't . I think I decided in grade 7, certainly by grade 8, to major in physical education/athletics and have the opportunity to make this class a good experience for my students. Catherine Dritsas |

RE: "other" teachers remembered... Posted Friday, August 21, 2009 12:10 PM Hi again Cathy, I do remember Mr. Legalie also being good at drinking beer. LOL As a Guy in the the fifties I really enjoyed our gym class, but there were more activites for the guys, football, baseball, basketball, kickball, sometime dodge ball against the powerhouse, I do remember activies we played together like 50 yd dash, kickball, indoors together we played deck tennis, also in the "pom pom" field we would play "pom pom pullaway" a fun tag game. What else?? I don't remember the gals playing basketball but you must have played some indoor games. Didn't we square dance a couple of times a month. We also played in the Pom Pom field a game called "pom pom pullaway" a fun tag game, both gals and guys could play that one. Speaking of teachers I have copies of some pics sent to me by Warren Devine, Maybe Warren could bring them to our Edison reunion, Mrs. Fahey;, Mr. Keener, Mrs. Gustan, Mrs Sestock, Mrs. Taft, Mrs. Smith, Mr. Lagale (we think) and the Janitor. Also a few pics of our graduation dance. See ya next month

RE: "other" teachers remembered... Posted Monday, August 24, 2009 04:49 PM I am so impressed with the memory that you and Cathy have. I didn't remember the names until you and Cathy mentioned the. I thank you for being my "Edison Memory" Janet Bruce I went to Edison from 3 grade on. I too would like to hear from others from Edison. I do remember Steve, but there must be many more. |
