RECENT SOUTH HILLS-COVINA CLUB EVENTS DIVISION 35 INSTALLATION DINNER ON 10/6/07 MIKE TANAKA THANKED EVERYONE FOR ATTENDING THE DIVISION 35 INSTALLATION DINNER LAST SATURDAY . NICE JOB MIKE!! THE DIVISION 35 INSTALLATION DINNER WAS HELD ON 10/6/07 AT THE MONROVIAN RESTAURANT IN MONROVIA. THE FUNCTION WAS SUPPOSED TO START AT 6:00 P. M., BUT THE PLEDGE TO THE FLAG WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PERFORMED BY JACK FIELDING, AND THE PRAYER WAS SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN BY THE VERY REVEREND JAMES PARKER. HOWEVER, THESE TWO DISTINGUISHED PERSONS DID NOT MAKE IT TO THE FACILITY BY 6:00 P. M.-THEY WERE A LITTLE LATE!! WHY WERE THEY LATE? IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THE LORD HAD A GREAT DEAL TO DO WITH THEIR BEING LATE, BUT HERE ARE A FEW FACTS, AND YOU CAN DRAW YOUR OWN CONCLUSIONS. AS YOU KNOW, JACK FIELDING IS A RABID NOTRE DAME FAN, AND THE REV. IS A U.C.L.A. FAN, AND THESE TWO ILLUSTRIOUS TEAMS WERE PLAYING EACH OTHER LAST SATURDAY. U.C.L.A. WAS A HEAVY FAVORITE AGAINST THE LOWLY TEAM FROM SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, WHO HAD NOT WON A GAME ALL SEASON, AND HAD NEVER STARTED A YEAR WITH ZERO WINS AND 5 LOSSES IN THE HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL. THIS GAME WAS BEING PLAYED IN THE ROSE BOWL, WHICH IS BUT A SHORT DISTANCE FROM THE I-210 FREEWAY, AT THE SAME TIME THAT THE DIV. 35 SHIN-DIG WAS BEING HELD. THE REV. PARKER WAS DRIVING HIS NEW HONDA WAGON, AND IT IS ALLEGED THAT HE COULD NOT SEE THE MYRTLE STREET OFF-RAMP, BECAUSE THE SUN WAS IN HIS EYES - SO THE LORD BLINDED THE REV., AND JACK NEVER SAID HE COULD NOT SEE THE OFF-RAMP. JACK JUST SAID, " GO AHEAD JIM, IT IS JUST A LITTLE FARTHER ON DOWN THE ROAD. BUT JUBILANT JACK WAS HAPPY BECAUSE NOTRE DAME WAS SOUNDLY TROUNCING U.C.L.A., AND BOTH OF THEM THOUGHT THE LORD WOULD HELP THEM GET INTO THE ROSE BOWL. HOWEVER, THEY FINALLY GOT OFF THE 210 AT HUNTINGTON OR SANTA ANITA AVE., OR SOMEWHERE, THEY DO NOT KNOW WHERE, AND MADE THEIR WAY BACK TO THE MONROVIAN, WHERE THEY PERFORMED THEIR DUTIES ADMIRABLY. BOTH OF THEM THOUGHT THE LORD CAUSED THEIR TARDINESS. Previous News Pages: |
