Fall 1965

We didn't have Glocks in high school

Here's a shot from my senior year at Los Altos High, in California. At a dance after a basketball game John Stevenson and Rusty Sybella got into it. Hope I'm spelling your last name right, Rusty. I still had my camera with the big Honeywell 65c flash from shooting the game and I banged one off. Kids didn't carry guns back then, although there were plenty of guns around the house. Fighting meant fist fights. You can see Mr. Wada has elected to stay cool as a cucumber. I think somebody pulled a knife in this fight and one of the combatants got cut on the hand. Rusty's girlfriend picked me as the guy to yell at and I got out of there. The negative is in bad shape, and this is a small section of it.
