South Side Elementry School


I lived on the south side of Frankfort on Alahambra Ave. growing up.  Attended South Side Elem. School from 1965-1971. Any others remember this era. Would be interested in starting a conversation. Also does anyone older from Frankfort know about Alhambra Lake??

I attended Southside School in the late 50's.When I started 6th grade it was a new school. The first 6months I had Mrs.Thorton from Kyger and the last months a man teacher I don't remember.The 7th grade I had Benson Frye he was a very nice teacher.The principle was Herbert Brammel from Kyger also a very nice person.Benson Frye also coached Southside's first football team.First season we went undefeated and wasn't score against.Played our championship game against Lincoln School.Some of my team mates we Jack Hickson,Gary Dunn,and Bob Mckenze.A fellow teamate Bruce I don't remember his last name passed away later in the year of leukimia(sp)? A real nice kid how sad.If you know me please reply I'll be glad to do the same.Ron Clidence

I also attended Southside in the late 50's and early 60's.  As a sixth grader, I too was on the undefeated football team.   The teammate that died was Bobby Bruce.  He had a younger sister Martha Bruce.  Bob McKenzie also went to school with me out in Kilmore.

  If I remember correctly, Mike, you were a pretty good shortstop for the VFW Yankees coached by Jesse Younger.  Actually, I believe we won the championship one year.  I pitched a little along with Dave Graves and Pat Ulm.  We had a great team.  
  Although I went to Riley, I can remember Bob McKenzie as being real fast.  Nobody could catch him.

You're right Mike T.Bob Mckenzie was fast!In football he'd make an end run and he was gone.Coming up the middle you could stop him but it was like being hit by a freight train!I think he truly loved the game.

Whatever happened to Bob McKenzie??   Seems like I never heard from him much after elementary school.   The Hot Dogs could have used him in high school.
