The caption for this July 18, 1965 photo from the LA Times about an experiment at UCLA by a faculty member of that era reads: ONE FOR SCIENCE-Phillip Zuckerman, wired for reaction, drinks vodka and tomato juice while Dr. Richard F. Docter prepares to study reactions. Experiments are helping determine extent of drinker’s feeling of mental alertness.

Simon and Garfunkel once sang about the “Sound of Silence.” When rain forced the weekly networking event at Anderson indoors last Thursday, silence was not what was heard: It was more like a typical deafening LA trendy restaurant. Back in Simon and Garfunkel’s day, the occupation of choice was in “plastics.” Soon it will be in hearing aids.
I guess the lesson is to do your marketing where you can.
As the caption notes, these trees were known as the sophomore grove at the old Vermont Avenue campus of UCLA, now the home of LA City College.
Maybe in the past it had water fountains. But nowadays we’re much more sophisticated.
I’m just a sign… …of the times. The open door policy at Anderson.
