As my case of auto theft was adjudicated, consideration seemed to sway in favor of finding a suitable environment where I might adjust. It is hard to specualte just what reasoning went into the courtws descision or who even were the decision makers. Eventuall the Catholic Charities got involved and I was sent to a boys homne out side of kansas City, Mo.
Ozanam Home for Boys was a small school as far as instituiions went only 30 boys were in it. situated outside Kansas City, Mo. I arrived in June of 1959. I recalled a popular song at that time, "I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come." by Wilbert Harrison. I would start High School in Kansas City but first the school was going on vacation. California here I come. I recall we traveled in a Nash Rambler, a Station wagon and a Volkswagon bus.
I have little recall of how the fight started but therfe I was in the midst of a fight with "hillbilly" Ofcourse 'Hillbilly' wasn't his real name. but distinguisehd from the other boys he was a hillbilly.
