Hey Micks, Enjoy Your Yearbook Online!
OK 69'ers...say you can't find your graduation yearbook!?!? Yeah, we know. "it's at Mom's"...or "that's where it was last time I saw it!" And how long ago was that? Maybe it's upstairs...in the attic...no...how about the garage? Oh, hell, admit it. You have no idea where it is do you? Well look no more...it's here with all the other McBride Yearbooks...that's right...the archive starts with the 1925 yearbook and ends with our last yearbook dated 1971. Check them all out at the McBride Alumni Website. But right now... let's enjoy The 1969 Colonnade!
Micks Hunt Poltroon In Chi Town
Mick 69'ers Tony Nocchiero, Pat Clear and Steve Schwartz pictured this July in a Chicago outdoor theatre venue shortly before Pat's evening Macbeth performance. While the ghost of Macbeth freely roamed the theatre grounds. the alums report Poltroon was a no show. Steve Schwartz last depicted Poltroon's exploits over 40 years ago in the Colonnade newspaper's comic strip panels displayed on McBride High School's first floor. Poltroon sightings in Chi town should be immediately reported to Chicago actor Pat Clear.

Micks Wait In Boston For Poltroon
Sent from my iPhone
McBride 69'ers Dik Ganahl and Steve Schwartz wait for Poltroon at the St. Joseph church in Boston's North End during the Fiesta of St. Joe held on the last weekend of July every year since 1925. Poltroon's exploits were last chronicled 40 years ago in comic strip panels created by Steve Schwartz and displayed in the McBride HS Colonnade newspaper's first floor window display. The alum shared cold ones during their vigil in the church's vestibule at Mary's shrine. While disappointed by Poltroon's absence, the alums' spirits were lifted by the Boston Police Parade Band's rendition of the Chicken Dance. Both agreed 'the outdoor Fiesta is exactly the kind of place you'd expect to find Poltroon.' Who knows, the two alums may become permanent Poltroon pilgrims!
