I was still living in Verdun for part of that time. Used to catch the last Wellington Street bus (sometime around 3 a.m.) at the corner of Peel and St. Catherine. Later I moved to a place on a little street that ran west off Guy, between de Maisoneuve and Sherbrooke, can't remember the name......all I remember is that a young woman who lived in the same apertment building got murdered one night in late 1969 or early 1970.......scared the shit out of me.

Anybody on here remember Marshall Hopkins? He was a champion swimmer and went to Verdun High the same time Murdoch and I were there. He went out to Simon Fraser on a swim scholarship but dropped out after a year and then went to Sir George. Spent most of his time smoking dope, though. He would periodically show up on my doorstep of that place near Guy Street looking for a place to crash.
