I mistakenly wrote that Roosevelt Junior High School had been demolished.
It seems that I jumped the gun: it is only in the process of being demolished.
This photo I stole from the Middletown Journal appears to show my ninth-grade science teacher. At least it appears to be him -
forty years on.
He was a tough guy. My friend Sam and I were whispering to each other during a test but Mr. Peters apparently only saw Sam's mouth moving. He strode slowly over, John Wayne style, and casually crinkled up Sam's test in his large hands, smashed it into a little ball - all without losing his stride.
I think Sam failed that test.
