ReplyKaren, Miss Adams was more progressive than Miss Polcock. We couldn't choose our partners. Girls and boys faced each other in straight lines. A boy's first partner was the girl directly across from him, and the girl to his left was his next. Oh, as I recall, ice cream after class at Petersen's on Chicago Avenue trumped Miss Bonnie's piano accompaniment as the most exciting part of the evening!

Wore white gloves to learn ballroom dancing in Miss Polcock's dance class during the late 50s at the Oak Park Club. Did her class "propagate any semblance of civilized society" during the mid-60s at UW-Madison? For a clue, please view my photo.

These nostalgic photos bring back many memories of LF's 100 year old train station like Spin & Marty, Uncle Bob's Bozo, and Bill Haley. What are your youthful memories of the station?
