Hey Mike.Uplifting no.but.I was in Ridder(98) '56-'59.The two big wheels in the school were Dr,Gillis and Saul Sigleshiffer.We sang "Hail to the chief".No big deal-right?Here's the kicker Ole Saul would come in the back door.A teacher would start playing H.T.T.C on the piano.We were taught to stand as ole Saul passed your sitting row.Face right or left and sing. Remain standing till Mr. ego reached the stage and told us to sit.He made trump look modest
