Arrangements j for the trip were made through; Fred Zandier, who secured the j tickets from Chief of Police Tiny j Hangman of Woodstock and] Chester Gould, creator of Dick Tracy. The bus was loaned to the group by the school. Harley Street served as the driver and the group was accompanied by Joe Lundborg, Ernest Vogt and FVed Kusch, who aided Zandier ^chaperoning the children^' • Boys on Trip The boys who made tike trtp included Pred Kusch, Jr., Larry Pierce, Roger and Rodney Benson, Buck Remy, Tom Cashin, Jim Bell, Werner Benson, Dennis Moder, Charles and Joe Corrado. Bob Cecich, Tom Miller, Roland} and Richard Hoffman, Tom Roti, Skip Mehling, Richard and Dan Lundborg, John Sirtak, Andy Thompson, Kurt Weisenberger, Carl and Ed Walker, Allan Franz, George Smith, John Wright, Rfcndy Sellek, Bob Biggers, Billy Spuehr and Gary Vogt. Jim Ellicote, a summer resident at the Lake who played baseball with the Wonder Lakers last Summer, ran into the group at the Stadium. The high cost of the vendors' products at the Stadium appalled the boys who. made the trip last year, so this year most of them brought a lunch. The youngsters looked as though they were going into the vending business what with the pop, hot dogs, potato chips, popcorn, candy and coffee, . The boys kept their bottles of pop under the seat &hd borrow ed paper cups from the counter, pouring out their drinks beneath the seats. One of the boys put Dis cup under the seat and started pouring. Another cup (from the previous bouts) was beneath the seat and he made an additional exchange and came up with a cupful of pop on which was floating-a large chew of tobacco. Where Did He Put It? One boy broke two quarts of pop and still had some left. Zandier says he is a little boy and wonders where he put it all. The boys brought along a shopping bag full of airplanes which they sailed out over the crowds below them. They had other ideas in mind but the thirty bean blowers were collected in advance. < Zandier says, "The boys were very, very good." He adde<l, "In fact I was amased at how good they were."
