Corona and I was born in the city of Racine, Wisconsin on November 9, 1928 and I was born right in my own house at 1300 Lake Avenue in Racine. Interviewer: “What was your early childhood like?” My early childhood was fine except that when I was four years old I had scarlet fever and I was put back a grade in school and that put me graduating a year behind all the friends that I played ball with, worked out with and went to school with you know, but other than that my childhood was fine. My mother and father were the greatest. :59 Interviewer: “What did your dad do?” My dad worked in a foundry. He was a molder and he was a jobbing molder at Belle City Racine Steel Castings Company, where I, after I graduated from Horlick High School in 1947, I went to work there myself for thirty-two and a half years. Interviewer: “Your mother was a housewife?” My mother was a homemaker, plus she worked at Rainfare, Inc., which made raincoats, pants, clothing and everything and during the war they made a lot of raincoats for the army and I eventually worked, when I was a sophomore and Junior in high school, I worked at Rainfare part time. 1:46 Interviewer: “Did you have brothers and sisters?” I have three other brothers and three sisters and now I’m the only brother that’s left. Three of my brothers have passed away. Interviewer: “Now, you lived in a neighborhood that had a ball park nearby. Tell us about how close it was and what was that ball park anyway?” 2:07 The ball part was the Horlick Athletic Field, which was three and a half blocks south of where I lived. It’s where all the big name teams played; all the high schools used it for football and all of the baseball. In fact they had midget auto racing there, they had wrestling and they had Joe Darcetti, Joe Darcetti was, I don’t know if you remember, he 1 �was Gorgeous George in the wrestling field. He was there, they had big entertainment like Al Schacht the clown of baseball came there and I participated in his event when he was there. It was a good ballpark, but when I—at first when I was a kid it was all wood. The outside of it was all wood and the CC Camp came into town and put it up in brick and it’s all brick now. 3:02 Interviewer: “What is the CC Camp?” From Fort McCoy. Interviewer: “What id CC stand for?” Conservation. Interviewer: “Oh, the Conservation Corps, sure.” The Conservation Corps. yeah. Interviewer: “All right now, I want to start and I don’t want to jump too far into the story because we got some time. Ok? What is your first recollection of going to the ball park, how old were you and did you go just as a spectator, what was your first recollection of going to the ball park?” Well, my first recollection of going to the ballpark is when Horlick High School used to play over there. Football and they use to have a semi-pro league called Metal Parts and they played softball there and when they had the games, we use to sneak through the wooden fence to go into the ballpark. 3:51 When I was about ten years old Elmer Christiansen, who was the caretaker of the ballpark, and I became very good friends and so when all of the ball teams would come in he’d let me know. “Mike” he said, “we got ball teams coming tonight, how about coming and being a batboy”, so when I was ten years old, I was a batboy already. Interviewer: “Wow, now, your parents didn’t mind that you were going out there at night?” No. At that time, it was a lot different than it is now. You didn’t even have to lock your doors at that time. This was in the forties right after the war you know. 4:36 Interviewer: “So, can you remember your first experience as a batboy?” My first experience, as a batboy is when the Kansas City Monarchs came into town and guess who was the pitcher? Satchel Paige. Satchel Paige came in there and I was the batboy for the Kansas City Monarchs and they played the Racine Blues. Interviewer: “Can you remember anything about the game?” Not very much, but it was a good game. Interviewer: “What were your duties as a batboy?” 2 �My duties as a batboy was to make sure that all the bats were in place. When the batter got done hitting, I made sure I got the bat out of the way in case there was a play at home plate and then I shagged balls for the guys and get their gloves, give them a towel, give them a glass of water, the major things of being a batboy. 5:29 Interviewer: “Any other team before the women came to town, let’s put it that way, what other teams were you the batboy for? What kinds of events were you the batboy for?” Just the semi-pro baseball teams that use to play there and then Metal Parts once and a while. I would go over there and watch them play because that was my game, fast pitch, and I only played a little baseball, but I played a lot of fast pitch. 6:00 Interviewer: “Did you have any advance notice about these women playing baseball? How did that all come about for you?” Well, only through the sports pages and Jim O’Brian, who was a good editor. Keith Briim, who was the sports—him and Don Black, who was the personnel director at Western Publishing Company, had the biggest involvement in getting the Racine Belles there. They had to go to Chicago to meet with Wrigley to get them to come to Racine. 6:34 Interviewer: “So, when they first came to town, were you automatically the batboy? How did that all come about?” I asked Johnny Gottselig, who was the manager, if I could be the batboy because when they came into town they stayed and they had usual practice before the season started and I went over and talked to Johnny Gottselig, who was the manager, and asked him if I could be the batboy because I had an assistant whose sister was on the ball team, Mary Nesbitt, my assistant, Buddy who helped me when I was playing. 7:09 Interviewer: “How old were you when they came to town?” Fourteen. Interviewer: “So you were only fourteen years old?” Yes, fourteen. Interviewer: “Since you already knew the lay of the land, you had already been a batboy there for a while, so it wasn’t that unusual for you to just walk up to the manager and say, “I got experience here”, how did you sell him on the idea?” Elmer helped a lot too and Leo Murphy who eventually became one of the managers of the Belles was a catcher in one of the minor league teams I played in Racine and he was a good friend of mine because I use to get his glove for him and all that and he helped me out with Mr. Gottselig. 7:54 3 �Interviewer: “You came with a resume.” I came with a resume. Interviewer: “What I want to try to get here is, and maybe it didn’t exist, but you’re doing the batboy for the men’s teams ok. Women didn’t ordinarily play baseball like that. These were good players, you’re fourteen years old and you’ve seen some good players, you saw Satchel Paige, can you remember your first game with the women?” Oh ya, oh ya, because Sophie, I think she stole four bases that day and Joanne Winter pitched a one hitter and Mary Nesbitt came in the next day and pitched a no hitter. You don’t forget things like that, you don’t. Too bad Joanne isn’t around any more, but Mary Nesbitt is still alive and she lives in Florida and we keep in contact with her when we go down to Florida. You take some of these girls like Maddy English, Edy Perlick, Claira Schillace; they could have played in any men’s league. 8:55 Then we had a girl from Racine who was a first baseman, Margie Danhauser, and I knew her very well. Interviewer: “Were there any big differences between being a batboy for the men’s team as opposed to the women’s team?” The duties were practically the same. I made sure that everything was clear, bats were all put in order and everything. The only thing different between the men and the women is when the women had to slide they got burned and man they had to lift up that skirt and it was different than the men, the men wore long pants and the outfits the girls wore were delicate you know. 9:38 Interviewer: “Your job didn’t have anything to do with taking care of the strawberries or any of that?” No, no, that was Mrs. Anderson’s job, Mary Anderson. Interviewer: “How about the behavior of the men compared to the behavior of the women? Any differences there, when they come off, maybe they didn’t like the way they hit the ball or they got struck out, let’s get an inside look here.” The men were a little different; they throw the bats you know. If they miss the ball, if they strike out they say damn it or they swear a little bit you know, but the women, they took it in stride and it was a different ball game. We had pitchers in the men’s that really threw BB’s, they were fast and they were good ball players and the women were good too, but don’t forget your mound was only thirty-eight feet from home plate and when they pitched they threw BB’s too and it was a different game, a different game between the men and the women. 10:45 Interviewer: “How were the fans?” The fans were great you know, but at first they didn’t come, who would want to come? First we had Metal Parts, which was a good semi-pro men’s team and they took a lot of 4 �the fans away from the—but when the Belles started winning and then the fans came and the fans would really pack that place on a Sunday afternoon double header was kind of different because it was chilly sometimes and sometimes you couldn’t even see the game because the foundry was right there and if we would get a southwest wind and they were smelting iron, you could hardly see the ball players on the field, but it was a good thing. 11:32 Interviewer: “Now, you got a perspective of the game that even the players didn’t get and the fans didn’t get. Were there any particular plays that you saw that—you were experienced, you knew baseball already, you’d see how the pros—were there any particular plays that you saw that you just went “WOW, that’s amazing, how’d she do that?” Any particular—either throwing the ball or catching somebody out, any of those kind of remarkable things?” Well, you never had two better—ended appealing on a double play—English to Sophie, to Margy Danhauser you know. The double play was the best play that the women made and Edy Perlick had a wonderful arm in left field and Clara had a good arm in center because she covered a lot of center field because Horlick field wasn’t small, it was a big ball park because they used that for baseball and it was a long way out to that fence. 12:35 some of those girls could hit that ball, but one thing about the Racine Belles, they had three good outfielders in Perlick, Clara Schillace and Eleanor Dapkus, they had three good outfielders. Interviewer: “What other teams did you see playing the Belles? They would have other ones coming in?” You would have the South Bend Blue Sox, you had the Kenosha Comets and you had the Rockford Peaches and Reno Giocenti, who was an Umpire from Racine, when he would work a game in Rockford, he would ask me if I would like to go along, so I would go to Rockford and be the batboy for the Racine Belles in Rockford and also, the Kenosha Comets you know. Sometimes I had to take the interurban to go to Kenosha because they played their games at Lakefront Stadium, which is no longer there, but it was so close, everything was so close. The only team I didn’t get to go to their ballpark was the South Bend Blue Sox, but the Comets, the Rockford Peaches and the Belles were the three parks I participated in. 13:40 Interviewer: “Now, you’re a young little fourteen year old with a bunch of cute girls running around, did any of them think you were their favorite or something? Did you have somebody that you thought maybe was your sweetheart even though she was not your sweetheart?” Not in that way, but we liked, you know Clara, she was a nice Italian girl you know and Horlick field was in “little Italy” and when the Belles would play there, Racine Steel or Belle city would have their freight cars—they would part them right over center field and all the guys from the block would go sit on top of the boxcar and watch the game you know and after the game they would all go see Clara. She was probably the most favored 5 �one of all the Racine Belles that played, but all of the girls were wonderful. Joanne Winters, Sophie and then you had Choo Choo Hickson who was funny as hell. 14:43 Interviewer: “Why was she funny as hell?” She was always clowning around a little bit. When they were all in Racine, they lived in Racine, they all came to Ace Grille, which was a restaurant downtown and that where you would always find all the girls and they had a pool room downstairs and a couple of them would go down and shoot pool, but it was wonderful. They were all good girls. Interviewer: “Now, every group has a clown and somebody who’s—tell us about a few of the personalities if you will. From your perspective tell us about some personalities.” 15:17 There wasn’t that much to tell about it frankly. They were all ladies and actually like in the movie—in the movie that was Hollywood. You didn’t see occasions like Spaghetti and them going out and dancing. These girls were well respected and they were invited to the country clubs and they did a lot of community work and Johnson’s Wax took care of them—made sure that they were well represented. Like I say, the movie was all Hollywood and I wasn’t the batboy then. 16:01 Interviewer: “Any particular game or games that really stands out for you? Something that you just went WOW.” The championship game, the championship game between Rockford and the Belles. It was like it was in the movie, but it didn’t happen that way you know. Interviewer: “Tell us how it happened, start us off from the beginning and kind of work us through the game.” The game was well played and it ended up four to three and there was no home run like they had in the movie with Geena Davis dropping the ball. It was a game and the score was four to three. It was just a regular championship game played like champions and like I say, any of them—any of those girls could have made any men’s team in the country. They had arms and they were good arms too and I’ll tell you. 16:56 Interviewer: “Now you spent how long being the batboy for Racine?” Just the Belles, just the one year 1943 because then I went—I became a freshman and I started playing basketball, softball and all that. In fact, in 1944 I tried out –they had the St. Louis Cardinals had a clinic at Horlick Field and I tried out and I went two weeks, I was there for two weeks, but I just didn’t have it to make—to be a major leaguer you know, but I loved the game and you can ask my wife—I played a lot of ball. Sometimes I played—because I played a lot of fast pitch and we were the state champions for five years in a row and we use to play sixty-five games a year and a lot of traveling. 17:51 Sometimes I would go away on the weekend and come home and go right to work, but I love my wife, she really watched me. 6 �Interviewer: “this is going back a little way and maybe at the time you didn’t think of it as much, but when did you find out that the league was actually ending? Do you remember that at all?” That was 1954 and just through the sports writing because I was already working and we already had a couple of children and it was just too bad that they had to—but you could see it dying a slow death because baseball was coming back now and guys like DiMaggio and all them were all trying to hit the ball and you could see it was dying, but I was glad it was Kalamazoo because we were there just a couple of years ago when they showed the last game in 1954 when they ended the season. 18:56 Interviewer: “So, when you stopped being a batboy like you say, you were in school and eventually to work, were you still a fan? Did you still go to the games?” Oh yes, I would go to the women’s games. Interviewer: “Let’s talk about that then. You were mentioning that things had kind of died out, but let’s go back—now you’re in the stands and you’re watching as a fan or did they still let you down there?” No, I went as a fan. Elmer was still there and I would see him when I would go there and his sister Edna was the general manager and she would let me in. I watched a lot of the Belles play until I graduated from high school and then I kind of fell off a little bit, but I ran into Irene Hickson and she was telling me, “how come you don’t join the association?” I didn’t even know I could join because now I’m classified as league personnel, so I signed a card and my wife and I have been going now since 1991 to the reunion and it’s a great thing. 20:09 Recall the girls and see them all you know. Interviewer: “They remember you?” Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Interviewer: “I want to get back to when you started to see that things were winding down. Was it that the crowds weren’t there or what was it?” They only played in Racine until 1950. 1950 was the last year they played in Racine and then, I think, the belles became the Grand Rapids Belles or or something, but they only played until 1950 and you could see in 1948 and 1947 that they were dying down because the crowds—metal Parts was in a pretty good league and they were there you know. 21:00 Interviewer: “Did you have any, I know this isn’t fair because it was a long, long time ago, when you saw in the paper that the league was ending, did you have any reactions or any thought that it was too bad or anything at all that you can remember?” It was a sad thing for the league to disband, but you have to remember that these girls did something that nobody ever did. They brought back—you know guys were all over there 7 �in the army over in the war and when they came home they had something to go to. I never had a chance to be in the army because I was too young and all that, but when these girls would be there, these guys were really happy you know. “ Hey, that’s somewhere to go, let’s go over to Horlick Field, a double header today”, but it was just too bad that the league didn’t go over. Then the—then Milwaukee got a ball team, the Braves and they had other things to occupy their time. Like I say, the league ended—the Racine Belles disbanded in 1950. 22:05 Interviewer: “Now I’ve asked this question and we’ve all asked this question to each one of the women, they played ball, they enjoyed ball and then afterwards when it ended there was this sadness, but they kind of went on with their lives, but at some point they kind of recognized that they did something special. Did that ever happen to you? Was there a point in your life where you realized, not necessarily you, but they had done something pretty amazing besides just playing good baseball? Was there any point where you just kind of thought back that that was kind of an amazing period of time? 22:38 Amazing because I was the first batboy for the Racine Belles and that’s what I tell people that I was probably the only boy that was a batboy for the women’s teams when they originated in 1943, but after I got out of high school, I did a lot. I was active in the Democratic party, I was active in the unions, retirees groups and on Labor Day, bowling. I had a—in fact now I even got a bowling league named after me, I’m in the Racine Bowling Hall of Fame, and I was occupied as my wife will tell you. I was never home. 23:28 Interviewer: “At what point did you actually—either it was called to your attention or you just thought about it, that you were part of something that was something pretty amazing?” Well, the only thing I can say is that I never got any pictures of me when I was the batboy. Somebody’s got pictures of me in California, but we’ve never made contact with the person, but other than that it was wonderful to be with the girls and they were great. Interviewer: “Now, what was your reaction to hearing that they were going to be put into the Baseball Hall of Fame?” I was just wondering why they didn’t put the batboys in. You know, they put the girls in because we were out there, but they were out there all the time you know. They played all them games you know and they worked hard and they deserved to have some recognition in the Hall of Fame. 24:28 We enjoyed it when we went to Cooperstown when they had the reunion in Syracuse and we all went to Cooperstown. It was just too bad that—they tried to get me into the Hall of Fame because I was a league personnel and I was involved for sixty games that they played at home and I never missed a game. For the championship game, when I was a batboy, I usde to wear a pair of jeans and a nice white tee shirt, but for the championship game Don Black said, “Mike, you got to have a uniform”, so they sent me to one of the men’s stores and I bought a nice pair of brown 8 �pants and a yellow shirt so I would look just like the Racine Belles on the day of the championship game. 25:22 That was one of the biggest—because at that time you know things were tough. Interviewer: “I’ve asked the women, and I’m sure you have heard this one before, what did you think of the movie?” It was Hollywood. It was Hollywood the movie was Hollywood. It was nice to see something done and they got some recognition from it and Penny Marshall did a very good job on it, but some of the stuff they had in there the girls never did because like I said, they were ladies. They never had drinking parties riding on a bus. Tom Hanks— you wouldn’t see Johnny Gottselig come into the locker room and go to the bathroom. That was just Hollywood. 26:16 Interviewer: “There were some scenes, for example when Davis walks into the ballpark and then playing and all that, some of the girls have said that that was kind of—at least it showed the overall story.” The overall picture, but on the end there with the presentation at the Hall of Fame, when Gina Davis walks in and sees her sister and some of the girls that are here now participated in the movie and it was a good movie and we watch it every chance we can and sometimes—we got a tape of it, and like I say, it was mostly all Hollywood. 27:00 The batboy and no crying in baseball. Interviewer: “Now I’ll ask you a question I ask everyone of them as well, and as you said, you did a lot after that. You can look back and certainly even now you got bowling and you have a successful family and all that, but I want you to go inside right now and being a batboy at that time, did that have any effect on the person that you became, the person that you are now? 27:33 That experience of going to the ballpark, seeing Satchel Paige, seeing these women do these things did that have an effect on who you are today?” No, no, no, because when I got involved at work my possibilities of being a president were nothing at all, I had a family to support, I did my work, I worked every day, I never missed a day of work, I loved my family, I loved my wife and I did a lot. I did a lot for the city of Racine, I was a commissioner on a parks and recreation for twenty-four years, I was labor person of the year, I was a delegate for the Democratic national convention in 1976 and 1980, I got into the oval office with Jimmy Carter, so what more can you accomplish other than being a good husband, a good father and a great grandfather. 28:43 Interviewer: “thank you very much, that was a great interview. 9 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

History Department Description An account of the resource The All-American Girls Professional Baseball League was started by Philip Wrigley, owner of the Chicago Cubs, during World War II to fill the void left by the departure of most of the best male baseball players for military service. Players were recruited from across the country, and the league was successful enough to be able to continue on after the war. The league had teams based in Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana and Michigan, and operated between 1943 and 1954. The 1954 season ended with only the Fort Wayne, South Bend, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, and Rockford teams remaining. The League gave over 600 women athletes the opportunity to play professional baseball. Many of the players went on to successful careers, and the league itself provided an important precedent for later efforts to promote women's sports.

He enlisted in the Navy when he was 17 years old (sometime in 1942). He received basic training at Great Lakes Naval Station, Illinois and was assigned to the USS Cincinnati (CL-6), a light cruiser. During his time aboard the Cincinnati he received training on the ship and stateside on how to aim and operate the ship's guns as well as went on patrols around the Caribbean Sea and near South America. In 1944 they escorted convoys to Belfast, Ireland in preparation for the Normandy Invasion. In late 1944 he was reassigned to a ship in the Pacific Theater, and in January 1945 they set sail. He was aboard that ship and participated in the pre-invasion bombardment of an island and assembled at Okinawa in preparation for the invasion of Japan. After the atomic bombing and subsequent surrender of Japan the ship pulled into Nagasaki where Raymond saw firsthand the destructive capability of the atom bomb. In late September 1945 he returned to Okinawa and by late October 1945 was back at Great Lakes Naval Station where he was discharged from the Navy.

He is a retired science professor who is married to an episcopal priest. He discusses growing up in the fifties in Bartonville, Illinois. Transcript JFC: My name is Justin Cospito and I am interviewing my father Joseph Cospito at three PM on March ninth and we are in our home of Northville Michigan and dad would you like to spell out your name? JAC: Sure, last name is c-o-s-p-i-t-o JFC: So tell us a little bit about your background, where’d you grow up? JAC: Well I was born in New Jersey, but I grew up in the Midwest, a little town called Bartonville, outside of Peoria, Illinois. It was an old coal mining town and we were the only Catholic family that moved into that area. We moved into an old coal miner’s house that didn’t have water, electricity, and an old outhouse out back. JFC: Alright, well did you have any siblings? JAC: Yea I had three siblings. I had two sisters and one brother. My brother John was the youngest and I was the oldest. JFC: And do you wanna just explain what your childhood life went through, and through high school? JAC: Yea it was challenging to live in a small town where everybody knew your business. I remember we had a phone line that had like five people on it and there was Mrs. McGullicutty would listen to everybody’s conversations. She would just be quiet. She knew when to get on the phone cause all the phones would ring. If a call was coming into that line and people were always saying “get off the phone get off the phone” but she’d listen quietly and you could hear her. That’s what a small community’s like. It was the fifties so just remember grade school as being like a prison it was a big old building, dark. Page 1 �Teachers seemed like they were ancient and they were mean. Back then you could get paddled or they could break yard sticks across your back, not the girls just the boys. And sometimes you just had to break some rules to have some kind of a life in that institution and I choose to break more rules than I probably should have. After grade school in Bartonville, Bartonville grade school I was sent to a catholic school and went to a catholic high school. All boys school, I liked that, I enjoyed that much much more cause I was heavy into athletics and I was a very religious person and actually was invited to join to enter into a pre-seminary they called it, to finish up high school, but I didn’t do that. My father blocked that idea. JFC: Well can you tell us a little bit just about your interpersonal relationships with your father and your siblings. JAC: Sure I was the oldest so I saw my duty to take care of and look after the children. My father, your grandfather was a veteran of world war two. He was in the army before World war two started. He was in Greenland and he told me stories about German bombers coming over and trying to bomb the base and that was before war was declared to the US then he was brought back to the states. He was a medic, he was trained to work with donkeys and then shipped around the world to India and then he was flown into southern China over the Himalayan Mountains with these donkeys and for two years he ran up and down hills being chased by the Japanese. He was with the Chang hi shek army they were, he showed me some pictures. They were absolutely brutal to their own people and he said they never stood and fought against the Japanese. He was with a small medical unit that was attached to the Chinese to care for their wounded and sick. Yea our relationship was not very good, with my father. He was. He had his own post-traumatic stress coming back from the war. His sister said he didn’t come back the same. He was a violent man, explosive, drank a lot. Later found out he was an alcoholic. He gambled a lot we grew up in poverty even though he had a decent job at Caterpillar Tractor Company. Where everybody in my family, I mean all the men in my family worked, At least at some point in their lives for Caterpillar Tractor Company. Oh we didn’t have the money that our neighbors had and other people at our school had and that was very difficult and shameful to live that way. That and his temper and his violence. So I tried to shelter my siblings as much as possible from his wrath taking his, taking his violence physically, but emotionally it was very, very difficult. I hated him for almost my entire life. And still to this day I can’t be at peace with it. My mother was weak, she just, when she tried to stand up to him he just over powered her and I saw him hit her once. Hmm she was afraid of him and she was afraid of what he would do to her parents who lived in the same town. He had threatened to hurt them if she left him. Oh that, it was a hard time. JFC: So why don’t you tell us what it was like growing up in the fifties and just continue on until you got into college and what you did in college. JAC: The fifties were certainly different than today’s world. It was actually a much more, it was a calmer life and not near as much drama and didn’t hear about all the violence that we have today. I think, I don’t know if it was less violence but I grew up without television up until high school and then it was just a black and white television. I would walk by this electronic store and I would look at some of the TV’s they had in the window and I remember watching “Hop Along Cassidy Show” and I started going Page 2 �there Saturday mornings at a certain time to watch some of the programs. But we would sit around at night and listen to the radio, especially ball games. Baseball was really big in our house, listening to it. There were kids would just hang out in high school, we would go to these hamburger or we called them tenderloin shops. They would make tenderloin or barbecue sandwiches and those were the hang outs on Friday and Saturday nights. Everybody would work on their cars, the guys would work on their cars on Saturdays, shine them all up, have a date, go out to the movies or something common there’d be groups. Then we’d go get something to eat, but we’d just drive around and around and around until we finally thought we found a cool spot to park and then we’d park and order. The waitresses were just, we called them car hops, they would roller skate out, take your order, put a tray on the side of your car, then roller skate back into the diner. They’d have your food and roller skate out with a tray full of food and drinks and then you would leave a tip for them, special on the tray. Some of our, they were women all young women, some of them were our friends, high school students. Music was real popular, we listened to a lot of music, but then it was forty five singles, and you’d get one good song on one side and you’d get some awful song on the back side that wasn’t very popular, but that’s the way they sold them. Back then you could go into record stores and you could ask for a record and you could go into a booth and listen to it to see if you wanted to buy it. Radio music stations were on all the time, whenever we were in our cars. The car was the single most important thing in our lives back in high school. It represented freedom, the area that I grew up in you would, it was surrounded by corn fields, going out for a drive on these gravel roads. We’d go to strip mines, which were mines, surface mining. They’d be filled up with water and we’d go swimming and it was very care free compared to today’s world. The classes were easy and it was just like grade school but just a little bit more difficult. But the teachers were laid back and everybody was kinda had their own rhythm and it wasn’t fast. Periodically we would have these air raid drills were we would all hide underneath our desk waiting for a nuclear bomb to drop, all the way through grade school and high school we’d be doing that and then you’d have tornado watch and if a tornado came by you’d have to go into the hall way away from glass, so it seems like we were always preparing for something. I remember helping my father build a bomb shelter down in the basement with sand bags. There was a period of time where everybody was building bomb shelters. The situation with the Soviet Union was very tense. I can remember in high school the news of the Talcon resolution where supposedly the Turner was attacked by north Vietnamese speed boats, later we found out in history that wasn’t true at all. But I remember the country gearing up for war and I remembering that all of us young men were senior year were just saying, “Yea” rooting the United States on “Yeah lets go over there, let’s make them pay.” I went on to college; it was a small number of friends. Most of the kids from that graduating class worked Keystone, Steel and Wire, Caterpillar, or local lumber yard or just local jobs or they’d go back and work on the family farm. They, they didn’t go off to college. And very very few women went off to college. They were supposed to just stay at home, get a job, and wait to be married. My parents and many parents back then wouldn’t put money into a girls education, because they figured she was just gonna get married, have babies, and start a family and her husband would take care of her. I remember Sputnik when that came out; going outside to watch it and the country had another wave of fear. I don’t know what of, but I think they were just afraid of the advanced technology of the Soviet Union. But I remember then the space race started. But more money was poured into the schools for science and math. There was a sudden interest in it and I rode that wave. I did very well in math and science and that’s what I majored in, in college and I got a scholarship that paid for my tuition. Page 3 �I had to get a part time job to pay for the rest of my room and board, but I also was able to get what they called “National Defense Loan.” They were education loans that they made available especially for science majors and I borrowed some money from that program. I was premedical, enjoyed the studies, but the war was heating up in 1966. A classmate of mine that we grew up as friends through grade school, through high school, and went off to college together, came into my dorm room late one evening and knocked on the door. I let him in, he was a bit drunk, and he said “let’s drop outta school and enlist before the war was over.” And it was just before exams so I said, “Good idea, okay and so we got, we drove into a train station and jumped on a train up to Chicago and enlisted, he enlisted into becoming a war officer flying helicopters, which made sense because he had dropped out of college that whole year and was spending the tuition money that his parents were giving him for flying lessons and he was just living in the dorm. They didn’t know… the school didn’t even know that he wasn’t registered for classes. Now I went to small college in southern Illinois, they called Eastern Illinois University, very beautiful area, very beautiful college and I liked it, but I felt like that the communists were killing Catholics, they were killing Christians and I had to go do something about that. So I enlisted into an army security agency, knowing I’d go into language training. That’s what they told me and indeed that’s what happened. Went off to basic training, didn’t see Gary for a long time, quite a few years. Had language training in North Vietnamese in Washington D.C. I was stationed at Arlington hall our buildings were at the south post of what’s Arlington Cemetery. And I’d go into town, D.C. every morning with a coat and tie and no military I.D. go into the basement of one of the large buildings on Connecticut Avenue and we’d start the day at nine o’clock for classes and only Vietnamese was spoken during the day, during class times. We’d have short break for lunch, where’d we go upstairs, go out somewhere get something to eat and come back down. And we were trained in vocabulary on conversational and on listening we had headphones, we’d have to listen to tapes. Try to translate them or at least get a gist of the conversation. We did that for, oh god, quite a few months until November and then I was pulled out and ordered to Vietnam and I remember I went by myself, the other class mates were scattered around. People were taking different languages at that time. There was a small group taking that dialect and I don’t know where the other guys went, but I wound up in Quan Trii. I remember getting off the airplane, I had a khaki uniform; I didn’t have my utilities then and just being hit by this massive hid heat and just all kinds of smells. Most distinguishing smell was diesel fuel burning, it was covering the field. Later found out that, that’s how, that was the sewage system emptying, emptying the trenches and then poor guys would have to stand there in diesel fuel. Oh that was sick. I turned over my orders, I was told I was gonna be listening to tapes that were collected from the Hociman trail and translating them, trying to distinguish between Chinese and different dialects of Vietnamese (JFC sneezes a couple times) but to my surprise I was signed to a platoon of south Vietnamese rangers and spent my time in Vietnam up in the mountains on the smaller areas of the Hociman trail JFC: Well do you wanna go into detail about what happened in Vietnam? JAC: Well I can just say being a very strong catholic boy to being hit with the immorality and the viciousness and just the insanity of war. It was very hard on me. It was very violent and it seemed senseless. And I went from a college student to being somebody that became nb and could kill other people. And it was a very fast transition. None of my training ever prepared me for that. And I was very Page 4 �isolated, I was with Vietnamese, there was an American officer and maybe a sergeant assigned to these ten man patrols. We’d go out for ten to twelve to fourteen days up in the mountains looking for the trails, looking for the North Vietnamese trails and setting up ambushes. And my task was to send up a, the Vietnamese would set up a long antenna for me on the side facing Lousts the plains and I’d do electronic intercept. That was basically my job, that and taking samples back of any ammunitions or rice or supplies to bring them back. JFC: Okay and how did your experience in Vietnam come to an end? And what was it like coming back? JAC: Yea... Well the world had certainly changed. JFC: Well how’d you come, what happened? JAC: We set up an ambush at night something we did every time we were out there, yea but this time it wasn’t just a bunch of young men and women pushing these heavily loaded bikes. They made these bicycles, the Chinese bicycles, they were real sturdy and they had petals but the petals were always strapped to the bike and there’d be hundreds of pounds saddled on to these bikes and these kids would just push this up and down the mountains. Not all the supplies were coming down through the plains down below which was being bombed all the time, but as the bombing got heavier they started pushing more supplies south through the mountains, through the jungle. Eh we set up an ambush, but we wound up tripping an ambush. They were regular North Vietnamese soldiers and they had RPG’s which you see on TV now you know the big head rocket. Well we’d never encountered them before they were anti-tank armor personal rockets not for infantry use, but they brought them down, they were very effective, they blew up the whole line we had. All they had to do was hit a tree. Hit some brush to set them off and then you just had, not just the metal shrapnel but you’d have just wood chips. Everything became a shrapnel. It blew up our whole line. a young guy from Wyoming was next to me and he just, he was eviscerated and everything was ripped out of him. I had a head wound and concussion and some wounding on my side, left side, but it was the concussion that I was just lost, I was just... I didn’t know where I was. I couldn’t see very well. Cause it’s just flashes of light then it’s dark then it’s flashes of light and I lost my shotgun, I was blown back quite a ways from where I was. And I remember just picking up... I can’t even remember his name now. Picking him up in a fireman’s carry and running out away down this kind of a hill area, gully. And stopping and found out he was dead and I just put him down and all I had left was my they called a K bar. Eh it’s a big knife. Bayonet. But that’s all I had. Wandering around and finally settling in under a tree and the greatest fear I had. I had two fears. One was being captured because they don’t keep prisoners up in the mountains unless you were a pilot or an officer. Nobody took prisoners there. You had no place to put them. So I didn’t want to be captured but the second fear I had and maybe that was the most and greatest fear was the tigers. Tigers always followed us. They knew that at some point they were gonna have a meal. And when they heard gun fire they would come running for dinner, it was like ringing the dinner bell. So they were there, I could hear them. And I must have stayed up all night, with my night out… knife out… wondering if I was gonna be eaten hehe. *Cough*. It was like living in a zoo, I mean there were just…the snakes were poisonous, h the ant bites would swell up. Leaches were everywhere, they weren’t just in the water, they were in the leaves, the trees, there was nothing comfortable about it. That’s where I got malaria. I Page 5 �just thought I had h an infection… I had chills… and most of the Vietnamese had it too, dysentery. h, we all had just a quarter, a small area of the map where the jp-off point was. They had different points where you were supposed to rendezvous if something were to happen. I had a compass, I found a trail that went down to the other side of the mountain range, I made it back. I was lucky to make it back. And there was, there was only five other people that were there and they were all wounded to some extent. And then we were able to…we were able to call in a pickup, but we had to hike another five or six miles, get down to a lower area, that was level enough, for the helicopters to come in. There wasn’t any way that we could rope up. Well, that’s how I h, how I wound up getting a ticket back home, not because of the severity of the wounds, but because of the concussion… my brain was just jumbled. I couldn’t speak or understand Vietnamese anymore, I couldn’t pick up the towns… it’s a tonal language. Every vowel has six tones that can be used, and any vowel within a word can change the meaning of the word. And just being a westerner was very hard to pick up on the language to begin with but after the head wound, h, it was impossible. I couldn’t make any sense of it. And when you’re in the field everyone is just yelling and cursing and everything come very fast… it’s not like learning Spanish listening to a slower conversation. Well I was of no use to them so they sent me back to be checked out at Walter Reed Army Hospital in D.C… and I did and they found out that I actually had malaria. That was… that was the worst of it, but they patched everything else up on me. The head wound now they had identified as tragic head injury, but back then it was just a head wound. Now I had headaches and I was confused for quite some time… I spent a year in and out of Walter Read. This was just being treated for the wounds and then for the h malaria but the malaria cause an autoimmune disease called black water fever where my immune system attacked my kidneys and I was losing my kidney function. In Walter Read I was put in a ward of guys that had renal problems, and there were actually quite a few malaria cases there. And Walter Reed had a long history of, of doing research on malaria. *yawn* yeah that was something to be in the hospital for such a long time. From that hospital I, I learned of Martin Luther King’s assassination, Bobby Kennedy’s assassination, the democratic convention that just went crazy… in Chicago. I was out on pass when that happened, I was at some guys house that I got to know cause I’d had, I wound up having a part time job that turned into a full time job as a bartender when I was out of the hospital. Which… I just couldn’t leave the area, cause I had to keep going back to the hospital. But they let me out longer and longer… but they wouldn’t cut me loose because obviously security wanted me back… hehe they had too much money invested in h… ability I no longer possessed. They claimed it was psychological, and they were just waiting for me to snap out of it which really never happened. I h, I remember a lieutenant, first lieutenant showing up at the clipboard, and just reaming me out; told me I needed to get back to my unit and that I had to sign all these papers that if I said anything to anybody about what I did even if I was in Vietnam, and anything I may have been doing or training I had received, I would end up at Fort Leavenworth making big rocks into small rocks. That was… I believed them… hehe cause they were the army, they could do anything…you could just disappear. See, my parents didn’t know I was in Vietnam. They had me write these letters, h, before I was shipped over, and they mailed them out periodically. And I never received any… well… I received a couple letters that were forwarded to me, but it was out of Arlington Hall, the mail had to be addressed to Arlington Hall. Arlington Hall was still the center of Army security in the States. That’s where all the spooks for the army work out of. Yup. I saw the democratic convention, I flew there, the next day after the first day of the rioting, and it was a police riot, I was there then standing in front of the hotel when a group of Afro- Page 6 �American kids had all these bottles and they started throwing them over the white middle class protesters at the police, and they were just laughing… they thought it was the greatest fun. And then they took off just as the police started charging, beating everybody up and throwing gas. They thought it was hilarious that all the white people were beating up the white people hehe. It was… it was… well I was still standing there, I was still for the war, I was still on active duty just standing there thinking, well, nothing is gonna happen to me. It was complete chaos… I was choking on gas and there was a phalanx of cops running my way and they were just beating everybody, they weren’t asking any questions. They were beating cameramen, h, so I kinda was standing there for a while thinking we could have a conversation but it became obvious that nobody was asking any questions… I took off running with everybody else. And there was a small group of us that split off, we didn’t go to the Lincoln Park, we ran over to the commuter trains, train tracks, and dropped down, I don’t know, it was like ten feet, I remember with this group just running down the tracks. What the heck am I doing this for, but I did it. And I was active; I went out every day for the rest of that week. I met Abby Hoffman, I met Alex Ginsburg, I met Tom Hayden, he was the only one wearing a white shirt and a skinny black tie. He was the only one that was really serious. h, these all became big names in some trials later, but Abby Hoffman was funny. I always quote the head of the Yippee movement, or one of the heads, which was funny because they had no heads, it was just pure energy. I remember being trained how to fall down and cover my nuts and my head when being beaten. And I actually ended up taking this seriously because I saw enough people being knocked around with nightsticks. I remember one day, Dick Gregory, the comedian, was there. And all these delegates from the convention showed up and there was gonna be a nice peaceful walk, south. Police had set it up, said just move away from the park, Lincoln Park, and walk south. They were gonna be on the streets. And so they had police cars in the front, clearing the way, so everyone was walking down the street, nice sunny day, Dick Gregory was just cracking jokes, I was up toward the front… listening to him. And we walked down a little further. And he said “well, we ought to get up on the sidewalk.” I said, “well, ok”. But when we started getting up on the sidewalk, we noticed that all the delegates had started disappearing, cause they wore a red ribbon to identify themselves as delegated on the floor. And Dick Gregory disappeared, just turned around and he was gone. You could see people were being hustled out of the crowd. So they took all the leadership, the delegates, and then there was just a crowd of people up on the sidewalk, like four abreast, going back about two miles for all I knew. And then the National Guard came in. They had the National Guard come in to take the streets all the way up. Or all the way towards the back of the line. And the National Guard running right in front, I was right in the front, blocking the front, with their rifles and gas masks on. I’m going “ohhh, this isn’t good.” And then the guys, the national guard troops got up on the trucks, standing on the hoods of the trucks, and they had these, well I thought they were flamethrowers, then I go “oh no, that’s CS gas.” We used that in Vietnam, ya know, and it was considered illegal, it’s a nerve gas, from the Geneva Convention. And that was it, I tried to get out, tried to burst out of this line and one of the guardsmen tried to, , butt me with his rifle and I flipped it around and hit him and butted him in the face and just took off. But I only got to a couple steps, and I got sprayed with the gas too, the stuff shots out like fifteen or twenty feet. And they sprayed the whole crowd. Then I remember running down the alley, , my eyes were going in different directions, I’d lost my mobility, I just got dizzy, and I dropped. I dropped down to the ground. Then I remember being hauled and thrown into a paddy wagon; it was filled with people, and the cops threw in a couple Page 7 �canisters of gas, closed it up, we were all… and I had been exposed to regular tear gas in the service. You have to go into a room and take off your mask and you gotta give your name and ID number and all this stuff it doesn’t take long for you to run out of air and you breathe it and you’re supposed to be in there for so long and it just burns and itches… burns your lungs. So… it was awful. I couldn’t believe they did that. Then I remember we came out at some parking structure, and I remember the wagon was going down, it was curving around going down, and we were in some parking structure, and it was all military, national guard, and police down there, and they were unloading these paddy wagons, and having everybody run out. But they had a little gauntlet of the police, with their sticks, and they were swinging, hitting everybody, as we ran out. Nobody read any rights haha, I remember, the Quakers kept saying “everybody tape a dime to your leg cause you get to make one phone call”. Well, we were in a parking structure, there was no phone, hahaha a dime wasn’t going to do you any good. So I was wounded on my left side where I got scars and this Chicago policeman just waylaid me and opened up my skin and rolled it back over my scalp. I was bleeding profusely and once again my head got knocked up, knocked around. And then we were put in a line and supposedly we were being processed and I’m bleeding like crazy but nobody helped. And I get up there and I show my military ID and I start cursing at them. I say, hahaha, I say “how did this happen to me? What’s going on?” It was like a goolaug(?). And I was very much for the war, you know, I was still in the service and I had just been on pass from Walter Read and I was gonna go back. And I called the digs now, the thug just looked up at me and said “get your ass on a plane out of here” and he threw the ID at me. God I had just gotten back from Vietnam, I was wounded, trying to heal, trying to understand what was going on in the country, and I was beaten and gassed and then told to get out of there, and I was from Illinois, and a Chicago cop is telling me to disappear. Well that pissed me off, so I went up, they had aid stations for the protestors, I got bandaged up, they just put tape to close the wound, they didn’t get sewed. And I stayed around. I met another group of Vietnam veterans that were there, and there was a group called “Vietnam Veterans Against the War”, and I still have one of the pins, and I joined. I joined. And from then on I became very active against the war, I became contentious of chapter counselor, oh what a time to be in the Midwest. When I went back to college at Bradley University, it had just looked like America had gone crazy. The Americans had been so pro the war, and if you were against the war, even if you were a veteran, you were communist. It was just surrealistic… moment where on college campuses, part of the citizenry didn’t like you as a veteran cause you went to an immoral war, and then you have all these American Legionnaires and World War Two veterans that just hated you because you were losing the war, and then demonstrating against it. For them it was like an act of treason. Nobody really liked you back then if you were a veteran. So… I just didn’t tell people I was a veteran anymore. Went on to graduate school, I didn’t tell anybody. I used my GI bill to go to college and then graduate school, but didn’t tell anybody I was a veteran. JFC: Ok, well m…how were your experiences at graduate school and what did you get a degree in? And after graduate school. JAC: Well, I wound up having, before I went to graduate school, I wound up having a kidney transplant; I had lost my kidneys from the malaria. I got a kidney from my father which wasn’t a good match but it kept me alive. I had been on renal dialysis for two years. I finished up undergraduate on a dialysis Page 8 �machine. They were just starting; it was a very crude technique back then. But after the transplant I felt better, and I started, h, well I was a pre-med major, I started in a MD, PhD program at CL University medical school, and wound up just getting the PhD, it was too hard to do both majors. God, once I got into clinicals it was just, my first rotation was obstetrics and this woman had a really hard birthing and it was just too much blood and screaming. I said “I’m out of here, I don’t need this.” So I went into medical research and got a PhD. I did research at the brain institute at UCLA and taught for three years. Then moved up to Seattle University and taught pre-med classes. I just had to get away from the pressure of doing research. I had a large research project that was funded, accepted and funded by NIH, and I was only about six months into it, when this whole Star Wars anti-missile defense theory was started by Regan, and Regan went in and stole all the money from NIH, he just took it. That was congress grant for biomedical research, he just took it. And he gave it over to the Star Wars program, and I had to stop my research program and I had to kill all my kittens and cats which was… well I was doing research on brain development. I remember just being so disgusted that I’d spent, not only going into the service, and it was really rejected by that service time, and then I suffer from it physically and emotionally. And I spend all this money and all these years of training to get to the point where I was just starting to be productive in my research, and once again, an idiot politician blocked me. It took all my research away; it took all my resources away. And I had to fire the veterinarian and the technician… I could have kept plugging along but I was just so furious, what’s the point? And I, h, I finished up my contract at UCLA and moved up to Seattle, Washington, taught undergraduate pre-med classes and I just loved it, it was a lot of fun. I didn’t have the pressure of a big university. JFC: Ok, well m, I guess we will keep going on to personal life. What happened and sort of what you did after, after your time being a professor. JAC: Yeah, well, *clears throat* I went back to an old colleague…I had a profound spiritual experience, I was with some Jesuits on the coast, I had this deep spiritual experience right in the middle of mass. I just got up and went out and was wondering in the woods somewhere on the Oregon coast… and my friend Andy Duffner, Jesuit Priest, who was a physicist, we got to know each other teaching at Seattle University came out and got me and said “It’s all gonna be ok, just rest”. I remember bubbling to myself “I’m not gonna be a priest, I’m not gonna be a priest” I entered the discernment program the Jesuits and I went in to get a Masters of Divinity. And I was just gonna enter the Bishop process when I met your mother on a backpacking trip, who happened to be an Episcopal priest, and still is. And she was cute… it’s just strange how that worked out too. We took this trip with two Catholic nuns… great women, up into the Canadian Cascades… up where the Rockies melt into some of that range, at a park called Cathedral Park. And it was high up in the range and you could stand up there, the upper part of the mountain, and you could see all the mountains in the Canadian Cascades going all the way down into the States. It was just beautiful. I brought my backpacking fishing fly rod and I had been fishing in the upper alpine lakes… there were little trout up there, and your mother would sit down with the book close to me and she would just watch me casting and then struck up a conversation. After a few days of that, of hiking, I would go fishing… we developed a relationship. I mean a social relationship. I went back down to the Oregon coast to get ready to the nunishipt(?). She would write me cards and letters. I would walk into town, pacific city, to look at them. I was looking forward to them. Then all of a sudden, Page 9 �they stopped. I’d walk in, there would be no mail and I just felt this great loneliness. So m, I went back to Seattle and we started dating. I put the Jesuits on hold, and they were fine by that, they really want you to know that this is what you want to do. And, jeez, after about a year, year and a half of dating we were engaged and we got married. And after two years you came along. That changed everything cause at that time I was the director of the “spiritual exercises of everyday life” which is a large retreat program throughout the Peugit Sound Area for the Jesuits. I was working as a layperson, and when Mom got pregnant with you I had to decide whether I was going to be Episcopalian or Roman Catholic. It was quite a shock to see a pregnant priest, for my generation. Your mom with her collar up on the alter rail being seven or eight months pregnant, it was just h… I had to make a decision. And so I entered into the Episcopal Church and that’s where you were raised, in that church, through your toddler years, until we moved down to Tacoma. So I taught part time and I was running this program and your mother and I raised you. JFC: Okay. This is the second half of the interview with Joseph Cospito, done on March 11, 2012, at 3:21 pm in our home of Northville, MI. and, I’m doing the interview. My name is Justin Cospito. , last thing we talked about was when I was born in Seattle, so let’s continue from there. JAC: *Cough+…the area that we live in in Seattle wasn’t very nice. But it was almost call the, would be called here in this area the inner city. It wasn’t very nice. We lived in a little valley, and your mother had bought a home. That was the original farm house in this valley. I spent a lot of time fixing it up, and did a lot of work. I had fixed up my house and I was living in... I kept it and rented it out to some friends. When I worked on your mother's house, and that's where you lived. ...we were making dilly beans. We liked to can together and late smer, and she was very, very pregnant. We were just waiting for the contractions to start when they called the water to break. And it did on this Labor Day weekend, so we went in, rushed mom into the hospital and they said oh no her contractions...she’s not ready yet. So then we left and we turned around and came right back. They admitted her, and she was in labor for 24 hours and was absolutely exhausted. She was 40 years old. It was pretty hard to get pregnant, and we just were so happy. I was there. And then the doctor called for an emergency C section. Your heart beat was slowing down, you got into some trouble, and your mother was just exhausted. So we went into the surgery room, and I’ve got pictures of the doctor make and incision and putting her left hand down on moms belly, and your butt popped out first. And I just pulled you out by your legs, and there you were. And, if I hadn’t been around the hospital so much I would have probably just dropped to the ground. And I thought it was just the most beautiful and interesting thing. And they cleaned you up and handed you to me, they finished working on your mother. And, you were unhappy, with quite a way to come into the world, being just dragged out immediately, but you were wrapped up and I held you, they had a little cap on you, and it was just an amazing event. Well, we got out, you...you, they said they did different tests and you were just fine, but you were hurt. And we didn’t realize how badly hurt you were. You were crying all the time. I’d stay up at night with you, holding you, and moving you until you fall asleep. I would just hold you and then try to get some sleep. And we would walk around the neighborhood late at night or 2, 3 in the morning to get you to go to sleep. That was the only time you slept, when there was movement, when you were being moved. Or I would put you in the car and drive all over for a good part of the night. I got tired, you mother had some complications to the surgery so Page 10 �she was in bed a long time. She got an infection. We worked part time, both your mother and I, and we took care of you part time. We were with you; sometimes I was with you all the time. We did things together, you and I had put a backpack on, and we hiked all over the place. We’d spend a good part of the day just hiking around. I got in good shape and you were happy. One thing you wouldn’t do was keep a hat on your head. I kept buying these hats; it took me awhile to figure out to safety pin it to a cord with your clothes. I would put it on and you would just take it off, and you would be angry. You didn’t want anything on your head, but I had to protect you from the sun. That part I remember, of going back a number of times looking for your hat. Those were good years. You’re a very exciting baby. We knew you were very bright, and eyes...your mother and I just went crazy about a bunch of things because your mother and I were so happy to have a baby being so old. We... [Laugh], our place was just filled with toys. But the one thing you played with that you loved was the Tupperware, and the pots and pans. So we had, so it was safe for you to take them out we had to put locks on all the doors except for that one, so you could take them out. When winter came, I bought this little play structure and put it together, they were usually outside but I had one room for you to play in, and I had all these Japanese big square pillows surrounding the play structure, so if you fell of you would just fall into a pillow. And you climbed on that oh… I guess, I’m not sure when you started walking; we’ve got in your baby book, but even before you were walking you would pull yourself up on it. And you identified with it very, very quick. And there was a little slide to it, so for a couple years that was your thing to goof around, crawl in and out of, and pull yourself up, go down the slide, sometimes you’d get up there and just let go and fall back on the pillows. We did many bus trips downtown with the science muse, to the zoo that was our favorite outings because it had big open areas where we could just run and you liked looking at the animals. And we'd stop and looking at the tiger. It was always scary, always scary for me. Well that was the life in Seattle, and then we moved to Coma, your mother was called to another church to be the director, called the Church of the Good Shepard. We found an older 1946 or 1942 house that was built by a very famous house builder in that area. It was all cedar, gold shake, and it was on two acres of land. That was not developed. It was full of brush, but we really liked it, I saw a lot of potential in it. but I’ve always done is to buy older houses and fix them up while I lived in them, and turn around and sell them and make a profit and I had to live free. And I did that for years in all the cities I lived in. so I bought the house the same way, wanting to fix it up. And I did over the years. Oh, we moved down in 1997. We left there in 2005, so that was 8 years. And 8 years I put a lot of hard work into it. I was still director of the, of the retreat for the spiritual exercises in everyday life. We had a training program, and did spiritual reaction, I saw quite a few people a week. And then I was a parent. Then, just because things got quiet, mom and I decided to adopt a sister. A Chinese sister, we went to china and we met [Lee-Joan?] And that was really a horrible, ugly, ugly American Time. We just felt so awful, Lee-Joan had lived with their biological mom for about a year, and she was left in a market, and then somebody found her and brought her to the police station. So she’s one year old and she’s in the orphanage system in china, which is really a very, not a very system. They put a couple kids per crib together; the poor babies don’t get much attention at all. But then she was in foster care and bonded to this other family, and they loved her. It was multi-generational, and they didn’t want to give her up. Of course we didn’t know all of this at the time. We were just wondering what happened to our baby because everyone else in the group had received their daughter, it was a couple days afterwards and we found out they, they went out to get her. And the foster mom had forced them, put them in a car and forced them to come to the Page 11 �hotel. I just received a knock on the door, and a baby was handed to me...it was Lee-Joan, and I hadn’t expected it that way. And the foster mom was just crying and crying. And we felt like the ugly American, who here are given a baby girl that was very, very happy. She wasn’t institutionalized, she was with a loving family and they wanted to adopt her, but the Chinese government wouldn’t let them. These foster parents still email us; I have a couple emails from them a couple times a year. And then we send pictures of Le Jone back to them. It was a year and half later when we went back and got Kaylee, your other sister... Now Kaylee, Kaylee was 18 months, and I forgot how old you were. And we...I went over with my sister, and mom stayed home to take care of you and Lee-Joan. First time we had left you we went to get Lee-Joan and left you with a couple and that really was very hard on you guys, and, the husband was. And especially trying to force you to eat food. I was not happy about that when we found this out...so we weren’t going to leave you with anybody this time. One of us was going to stay, and that was your mother. You and Lee-Joan were very, very close. She just ran to you the first time she saw you. And you just rolled around and were laughing and it was very, very warm and sweet. So Kaylee we picked up and we picked her up in a hall where all the other families had babies with 18 months old. I can tell that she was just different. That she were not like Lee-Joan, the sense that she wasn’t crying at all. The...the foster mother that she was with, the Chinese put them in foster care for...once they have match, they keep 'me with the foster mother for about 6 months before you come over and get all the paperwork...and finish the adoption. Then you stay in China for 2 weeks, just to acclimate. , that was very good. Kay was a character, she would just wave at people, shed just draw attention, they’d say she’s just so cute, and I’d draw attention cause were in a smaller town and there weren’t that many Americans. And most people in our party would leave the hotel, but Kaylee and I just went out all the time. This time I had her in a stroller 'cause I couldn’t carry her. On one trip we went to this Buddhist temple and she was on the bus and I was holding her. And she just started struggling to get away, she wanted to go outside and the bus was moving, and she just flipped forward and I threw out 2 vertebrae in my neck. It was so painful, I woke up the following morning, and my head was off to the side and couldn’t even stand up straight. Fortunately there as a chiropractor in our group and she kept putting it back and we flew the next day, flew out. It was a lot of pain and she was a handful. It was, long flight, like a 14 hour flight to come back to Seattle, but you met us with mom and Lee-Joan, as soon as we got off the gate and you guys just wrapped around Kaylee and holding her making her laugh and she was happy. She wasn’t happy on the trip over, but she was happy. And both of your sisters, cause the time is just the opposite. Both of your sisters for a month or so just didn’t sleep at night. They were awake. It took a while for them to get adjusted. Life was very good; it was a very nice place. You were going to a private school, and I had the girls, and worked on the house. I put a fence all the way around the property because I bought two donkeys at a school auction, thought it was a good idea at the time. But I put in a lot of work and a lot of money for those donkeys. Fenced in about an acre, big thick planks 'cause donkeys like to lean against the fence. And then I build ‘em a little barn. Around the house and our place there was a beautiful view, also we had 2 donkeys, we had chickens, what else did we have? Ducks, we had bunny rabbits, and a lot of slugs, about a herd of slugs. The only animal that would eat a slug was a duck. So we would laugh, you guys would just laugh watching duck trying to eat a giant slug, one of those banana slugs. Then we had little ducks running around, little chickens, little chicks running around. The chickens flew up in the tree. I had that sauna built, it was outside. It was built underneath these giant cedar trees. And the chickens went up in those trees, and those that couldn’t make it would Page 12 �not last into the season. The coyotes would get them. Then at night, we this big owl, and picked off a few of the chickens. One day, I remember hearing one of the chicks peeping really loud. And I kept looking around and couldn’t see him. And then I looked up and there was a crow flying with one of the chicks. And I chased after it, it went into the woods, and the woods were so thick I couldn’t follow it any further, but it was about a month after that that the chickens got even. A crow somehow got caught by the chickens, and the chickens killed it. All the chickens kept running in from all around the area, were pecking at it. And a large flock of crows starting coming. So there were the crows against the chickens, and the chickens won. Soon as the crow was more than dead, they just scratched and went back to their, the work of just eating bugs and laying eggs. That was a beautiful place. I just felt so peaceful there. We remodeled the kitchen; put a second floor on it. It got to be a huge project. I poured a lot of money into it. We were happy. Your aunt and uncle...uncle bonnie [Laughing] I mean Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Jim were close by and we had those two beaches just down the hill we could go to. There was a fishing pier; we had friends throughout the neighborhood. I remember all the kids would come by our little farm and just look at the animals and just watch them. In the morning some of the older people went for walks and would always bring carrots around for the donkeys, or apples. What do you remember the place? JFC: Just there was a lot of property. That just liked walking around. JAC: mm...yup. We had woods, we had pasture, had that big hill behind us. We made friends with our neighbors, Sam and Martha, and their daughter. Our girls got close to them. Sarah, Lee-Joan, and Kaylee just hung out all the time. They’d play in that hill between our two houses. Now they’re still close, they moved to Toronto and we still see each other, at least 3 or 4 times a year. And the girls are always talking on the phone, and now on the computer they do Skype. ... JFC: Well, I mean after that we moved to Michigan and we ... JAC: yup, we moved to Michigan. Your mother got a parish, it was, for me it was hard breaking because it was hard, I thought that was the house we were going to retire in. I poured so much of myself into it. Building a barn, a shed, a sauna, putting all the fences in. But, it seemed like it was time to go, so we moved to Michigan, were your mom’s the priest director at Saint John’s Church. And she’s pretty happy. She...she loves her work. You guys seemed to adjust pretty quick... you had the hardest time. It was middle school. You were starting 7th grade. You had an awful experience in 6th grade there at browns point. [Cough...] we never realized actually how horrible it was and ma was just tied up in her work so much, and I was tied up trying to save the Seabury school from going under financially. We just didn’t pick up on the...what was happening to you. You changed dramatically. JFC: well that’s alright. . Well, is there anything that , that you want to touch on. I don’t think...what...what ah, talk about, well you said you wanted to say some more about Bartonville. I don’t think I ever covered up what year you were born JAC: Oh yeah, I was born in 1946. Your grandpa was in china for a couple years and earned the point system. He was able to leave the theatre before the war was winding down. But they hadn’t dropped Page 13 �the bomb on japan at that time. But Germany, Europe, peace was over. They declared the war was needed in Europe. So the let him come home, where he had to fly in over the Himalayas. He was driven back. They made a road, a trail. So he was driving back on the road in a jeep. He got back, married your mother. He met my mother in a town called Bartonville, Illinois. That’s where she grew up. In a big 'ol farm house with two sisters. My father was stationed in Purea when he left Greenland. Where he went through training, working with these mules, he met the three sisters. And my grandfather and grandmother were old world hospitality. They would come on Sundays, 3 different men, and they would Sunday...Sunday... afternoon dinner together. And they did that for quite a few months. And all three sisters married the boys that they brought home for dinner. And throughout the war they wrote to each of them. So my father came back, got married, and took my mother to New Jersey where his family was, the Italian side of the family. Became pregnant, and that was me. I was born in in 1946 in October in jersey City, New Jersey. JFC: okay. . You good? JAC: yeah. JFC: Okay.

The the me of the confer ence was , The Role of Foundations in a Dynamic Society . The morning session was highlighted by a discussion of the Philosophy of Foundation Giving , with the openins address by Dr. Li ndsley F. Kimball of New York City , the for me r Executive Vice President of the rlockcfellow Foundation and now an associate of the Rockafellow Brothers . Dr. Kimball di'lided his preoentat1on into four parts : Foundation Sins, Founda t ion H::u.C.l"d a , Plus Factors in Foundation Pr ojects and Questions on the Future of Foundations. Under Foundation Sins he listed three principal ones as follows: 1- The God Complex t h a~ Foundations can and do acquire. 2- Fear of o pening Pa nd o ra's Box if Found a tions stray free ~lvln~ in a s e t channe l or groove . 3· Fo unda tiona look n t pe r s istent a ske r s as pa nt s rathe r t.!'lnn rr E'n ru - ~ rc: the t . ~ vn} \Je o '!' -:.. h ei r rcqt.Jest.s o r Lhal r d C' d ! c~ t. 1 on to n projnct. . t:::c. z. rd s he hl;hli ::h ~ E' d th r ee major a re as : 1o n ~a r E! - sl · ·r~~ v :·v c ~ ht 1 -nL l ~~ 1 t~ r ~~i. t:."'!.j .:) r act1•:! t~~= c :-- C:l ~ ~ !l i t c s . 2- L1.:!l j t. a n in st j t ut 1on by 'rtn r t11:-" 3- the ir epn ro c.

Strong element of self- help. 3- The projec t will arouse others to action or act as a yeast to other pr ojects . 4- The end or r e sul t o should be greater than the means . What is left after the money is gone should be significant and could act as a multiple effect . i~n~~~~~~t.!~~~o~~na~~tc:~e~o"~o~~et~i~:a ~t~:~; ~~n9iv~o 1 6- Giving is n early always and a Foundation la strem(t ! ..-!'\ed by lookinFt at projects as purchases . 7 - Askers neve r adequately just1fy the gift. , consequently Foundations can add to the pr oject . buyin~ . The above Plus Factors help establish what a Foundation needs .besides money to g lve money away . �- 2- The Questions on the Future of Foundat iOns are : 1- ls there a aufflclcnt chan~e in philanth ropic p;lvlns; or motlv·ea to Justify the continuation of Foundatio!'ls? 2- Are we reaching th e limits of volu ntary action c~peclally with old lin e agencies such as the Y.

CMF is an association of Michigan grantmakers: private and community foundations, banks serving foundations and charitable trusts, and corporations with giving programs . CMF is a non-profit membership organization which provides a wide range of services and activities for its members. Founded in 1972 on the premise that philanthropy is more effective when grantmakers have the opportunity for continuing education, communication and information , CMF seeks to encourage and furnish the means for such exchanges. Membership in the Council currently stands at 93 organizat ions - including 72 private foundations, 12 community foundations, five banks serving foundations, and four corporate giving offices. Nearly one half of CMF's private foundation members have assets of less than $1 million, and one-third of the membership retain assets of less than $400,000. It is estimated that CMF's total membership accounts for approximately 85% of all foundation assets in the state. iller, Trust Officer k of Detroit, Detroit Purposes nn Ri ec ker, Trustee rrd Grace A.

A private foundation is a nongovernmental, nonprofit organization, with funds and program managed by its own trustees or directors, and established to aid social, educational, charitable, religious, or other activities serving the common welfare, primarily through the making of grants. Corporate and community foundations and charitable trusts are included. A charitable trust is a trust set up for the benefit of the public, usually setting out a defined charitable purpose for an undetermined number of beneficiaries. What Is Not a Private Foundation? Excluded are organizations which bear the name "foundation" but whose primary purposes are other than the awarding of grants; for example, making general appeals to the public for funds; acting as trade associations for industrial or other special groups; or which are restricted by charter solely to aiding one or several named institutions; or which function as endowments set up for special purposes within colleges , churches, or other organizations and are governed by the trustees of the parent institution. How Many Foundations Are In Michigan? What Is Their As et Value and How Much Do They Grant to Charity? There are an estimated 26 ,000 foundations in the United States, with 831 of them known to be situated in the State of Michigan . These 83 1 foundations had an asset value in 1972* of $2,408,866,000 and made grants in that year of $120,417,000. Table I, compiled by the Foundation Center, gives a breakdown of these figures: Table I Number of Foundations Asset Category Percent Assets (in thousands) Grants (in thousands) over $I million $200,000 to $1 million under $200,000 97 178 556 11.7 21.4 66.9 $2,307,679 75,033 26,154 $105,182 9,608 5 ,627 Total 831 100.0 $2,408,866 $120,417 It is interesting to note that almost 67% of all Michigan foundations have assets of under $200,000. The great bulk of the assets held and grants made are by the 97 foundations having assets of over $1 million. A further breakdown of the assets and expenditures for those foundations follows in Table II .

Many foundations have tax or fiscal years beginning July 1, September 1, etc. Thus the year of study was 1972-73 for which many tax returns were not due to the IRS until as late as May , 1974. **Expenditures include disbursements of all kinds-for grants, for programs operated by the foundation, if any, and for administration. -36- �Which Are The Largest Foundations In The State? In the United States, 38 foundations have assets over $100 million. Five of these are of Michigan origin, including the largest ofal1 U.S. foundations , The Ford Foundation, which now is headquartered in New York City. (See Table IV.)

Community foundations are characterized by multiple sources of funding from many donors . Expenditures primarily benefit a limited geographical area. The governing body of a community foundation generally represents broad community interests. Often small private foundations look to the community foundations in their areas for advice and coordination in their grant-making activities , and in recent years many small private foundations have turned over their assets to community foundations. In so doing , the private foundation may retain its identity of name , but avoid the costs and constraints of private foundation status. The community foundations are of growing importance not only as professional grant-making organizations, but as flexible means for administering many different kinds of charitable funds for the benefit of local comm unities. One of the very first community foundations in the entire nation was founded in Michigan in the early 1920's. However , its trustees adhered to a philosophy of "receiving and administering funds bequeathed to it" without actively pursuing the development of endowments and co rpus monies. Since the Tax Reform Act of 1969, it has been superseded by a new organization . Otherwise , with two notable exceptions, Michigan has not been in the forefront in community foundation development. The exceptions are the Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids Foundations which rank I Oth and 18th nationally in size. Six Michigan community foundations have assets of over $1 million and make grants of at least $500,000 annually. (See Table VI.)

(Benton Harbor) Flint Public Trust Grand Haven Area Community Foundation Grosse Pointe Rotary Foundation Heartland Foundation (Hartland)* Jackson Foundation Leelanau Foundation Midland Community Foundation Port Huron District Foundation Shiawassee Foundation (Owosso) Three Rivers Community Foundation Traverse Area Foundation (Traverse City) What Is a Corporate Foundation? Corporate foundations are classified as private foundations under the tax law, but are closely tied to the parent company which created them. Ordinarily company officers serve as trustees. Sometimes annual grants are equal to or exceed assets , although a few company-sponsored foundations have substantial endowments. It is not uncommon for a corporate or a company-sponsored foundation to assume the responsibility for the parent company's corporate giving in cities in which offices, production or service facilities , or retail or distribution outlets are located. There are nine Michigan company-sponsored foundations having assets of over $1 million and/or making grants of at least $500,000 annually. (See Table VII.)

Who Benefits? Foundations are characterized bv both the flexibility and diversity of their grant-making activities. Another characteristic is that requests made to foundations vastly exceed their funding capabilities, thus forcing their trustees to define specific programmatic and geographic areas in which requests will be considered, with the automatic declination of grant requests outside the prescribed areas . A study has been made of the grant-making patterns of 54 foundations which accounted for over 80 percent of the dollar amount of all grants made in Michigan by Michigan foundations in 1972**. Since the analysis is based upon only one year's grants , the figures may not necessarily be repr~ntative of the continuing pattern of giving by Michigan foundations generally nor by any particular foundation. They do 11elp illustrate , however , the necessity for potential grantees carefully doing their homework in arriving at the proper decisions as to which foundations are more likely to give favorable considerations to specific requests. Programmatically , the $46 ,225,356 granted to support Michigan educational , health and social welfare programs by these 54 foundations in 1972-73 was divided as follows: 38.0% $17,563,349 Education 15.4 7,119,028 Health 4,270,995 9.3 Humanities 896,299 1.9 Religion 2.0 939,307 Science 15 ,436,378 33.4 Social Welfare $46 225 ,356 100.0% * Actually a private foundation but for the purpose of this study, treated as a community foundation because of its general intent. **The tax year which for each foundation began in 1972. Many foundations have tax or fiscal years beginning July 1, September 1, etc. Thus the year of study was 1972-73, for which many tax returns were not due to the IRS until as late as May, 1974. -38- �The table on pages 62-66 details both the dollar and percentage amounts for each of the 54 foundations for each of the six programmatic areas. It is interesting to note th:lt Education with $ 17,563,349 and 38.0% of grants and Social Welfare with $ 15 ,436,378 and 33 .4%, each received more grants than all the other four categories combined. Analysis of these expenditures indi cates the concerns of private foun dations for the problems of minorities and other needy segments of today's society, as well as their recognition of the need for restructuring and strengthening the programs of the social service agencies in both urban and rural Michigan. Twenty of the 54 Michigan foundations expended more money in the social welfare field in Michigan during 1972-73 than in any of the other five programmatic areas, while Education was the principal focus of the grants of 19 foundations. For eight of the foundations the principal focus was Health, while the Humanities and Religion each received the principal interest of four foundations. In analyzing the data there are no significant findings as to the effect size or geographic location may have on emphasis Michigan foundations place upon these six programmatic areas. During the year of this study ( 1972-7 3) 6 1 grants by non-Michigan foundations to Michigan institutions and agencies totaling 530,222,724 were also analyzed and showed the following results: Education Health Humanitie Religion Science Social Wei fare 5 I ,874.290 25,957,000 92,500 200,000 I ,442,834 656,000 6 .2% 85.8 0.3 0.7 4 .8 2.2 530,222 ,724 100.0% These figures are undoubtedly atypical , in that they included a substantial payment by the Ford Foundation on a multi-million dollar commitment to the llenry Ford Hospital in Detroit. How Much Money Goes to Private Non-Governmental Organizations and How Much Money Goes to Public Government Institutions? Much has been written in recent years about the necessity of maintaining the pluralistic system which has been so much the hallmark of our American way of life. Foundations play a vital role in helping to strengthen the private sector with the great bulk of their grants being directed to non-government organizations. Analysis of over 80 percent of the dollar vo lum e of grant s by Michigan foundations to Michigan institutions in 1972-73 indicates that 533,423,680 or 72.3% were made to non-government organizations with 512,80 l ,676 or 27 .7"f going to governmental institutions, such as our state supported colleges and universities. Further analysis of the grants indicates a tendency for the smaller foundations to give proportionately more of their grants to private non-governmental agencies than for the larger foundations. as illustrated by the following: 1972-73 Total Giving in Michigan Under 5100,000 in grants 5100,000 to 51 millinn 5 I million to 52 million Over 52 million Total of Grants % to Private Agencies (non -gave rnmen tal) 388,579 I I ,7 I 5,948 7,852,546 26,268,283 90.3 % 89.8 81 .4 61.5 No. of Foundations 7 35 6 6 5 54 $46,225,356 - The individual analyses for the 54 foundations is on page 65, Appendix D.2. -39- -- 72.3% % to Public In stitutions (government) 9.7% 10.2 18.6 38.5 -- 27.7% �u APPENDIX A. 1-a LISTING OF DIRECTORY OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS ARRANGED BY CITY (OUT-STATE) ADRIAN ALLEGAN ALPENA Adrian Foundation.
