Nice bit of trivia though. <br /><br />Thanks for posting (and sorry for taking so long to get around to approving the post).Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09521087926470872928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-190004176682421212.post-67782881864559605142010-09-04T10:31:08.788-05:002010-09-04T10:31:08.788-05:00Hi, David -

I beg to differ with one small point, however - and that is where you said you didn't see mixed-race couples playing tennis on the courts in Lake Meadows. <br /><br />My aunt, a black woman, lived in Lake Meadows in the mid-50@. She met her future husband, a German man, there. They often played tennis on the tennis courts there. He was VP of a plywood company, and was transferred to the Phillipines c. 1959. After about 6-9 months there, he sent for my aunt and they were married there.<br /><br />I don't know if there were other mixed couples, but there was at least one! Just a little trivia to add to your story.<br /><br />Carla Haithcox Williams<br />former Chicago residentCarlaW_SunTrust_Internshiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13243545026658794514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-190004176682421212.post-47438910675515596252009-08-21T20:35:38.390-05:002009-08-21T20:35:38.390-05:00These are some really great photos, David!
