Re: [Chat] [Discussion] Charles Village History

2006-11-16 Thread OldHouseHistory
Thanks everyone for all the good hints in which to investigate the history  
in the 1960s-2000.  Oddly, its a period where not many documents have  made 
their way into public archives yet, so its the most difficult to  research.  
That's why we will rely on you all to help us along!
 
I'll be asking lots of questions in the next two months, and hopefully you  
will all help just by reminiscing where you shopped and who you met, etc.  
 
Why was the store where Donna's is now, "strange?"   Intriguing!

Does anyone know someone who will come to my house three times a day to walk
Albert and give him medicine?

 

This would be from late Tuesday afternoon to early Friday afternoon of next
week.

 

Thank you,

Is there anything about Sam's Belly in your compiling of neighborhood
history.  This was a cooperative food store located on 31st, maybe where
Normal's is now?  It was a wonderful place to get fresh produce and
especially grains and granolas.

 

  Also does anyone remember the pickup games - softball and football staged
by the New Democratic club members.  They were coed with Joe Clark (Mary
Pat's husband), Frank Heinz, and many others participating.  The pick up
games were at the Hopkins campus in front of the Wyman Park Hospital area
which was soon (10 years later) to be paved over into a parking lot and they
are still building away.  At the end of the sports era, most of the
politicos were gone and another group continued to play ball.  There was a
time when Johnny Unitas, having retired from the Colts scrimaged with the
group.  I guess he was just looking for something to do, especially if it
involved a football.  He also played a few games of softball in which he
witness my last game.  After a long run I caught up to the ball but  put my
hand into the glove prematurely, thus a broken finger.  The appearances by
Johnny U. are hard to believe for some people but I will swear to the fact.
Maybe someone else remembers them too.

I suggest that you talk to Homewood Friends Meeting, they have great historical records and have always been involved in the Peace and Justice Movement.  David Green is a member at Homewood.

Paul,

I'll have to look for photos.  But among those who were very active in 
the anti-war movement are Gren Whitman, Karen Olson (still in CV), Dee 
Ann Mims, Dean Pappas (lives in northwest suburbs), Vickie Pollard 
(moved to Maine), Jo Ann Robinson (still in CV), Megan and Walter Shook 
(now in Roland  Park), Dave Greene (Megan's brother, ran for House of 
Delegates in 43rd), and probably a bunch of others I cannot think of 
right now.  Some are still in CV or nearby.


Dave and Megan founded The Crack of Doom Coffeehouse on Maryland Ave.; 
it was where there is now a Korean restaurant; I think that that is at 
the southwest corner of 22nd or 23rd Street.


I'm not sure whether Brendan Walsh and his wife Willa Bickham (I'm not 
sure of the spelling) lived in CV then, but they also were extremely 
active in the Interfaith Peace Mission founded by Phil Berrigan.  
Brendan and Willa run Viva House, a Catholic Worker effort to help the 
poor and the down and out in South Baltimore.  Also, the Peace Action 
Center was located in a row house at the southeast corner of 26th and 
Maryland.


Bill O'Connor, who died very recently, was very active with Phil 
Berrigan, and I learned at Bill's  memorial service that the napalm used 
by the Catonsville 9 to burn draft files was mixed in Bill's basement.   
His  widow, Marilyn, is someone you definitely should interview and 
still is in CV.
