Chiefs lose to Rams in second preseason game

"It's a spectacular story", said Ronald A. Davison, a professor of geography at Cal State Northridge who specializes in Los Angeles and public space. "You have no idea what he did on the line of scrimmage or how he checked in and out of things or changed the protection things. It was a good drive and we scored". -- Equilibrio Informativo

But PUC Schools, an independent charter organization that operates 14 schools at LA Unified, has taken a different approach to the start of middle school aimed at calming those anxieties while also inspiring students to set a goal of going to college. All incoming sixth-graders at PUC’s five San Fernando Valley middle schools spend a week on the campus of California State University, Northridge (CSUN) in a summer camp-like environment while getting to know their teachers and fellow classmates before school begins. -- LA School Report

Born On This Day, 1923: Don Slater

The turmoil over ONE did little to slow Slater’s activism. He helped organize a motorcade protest in Los Angeles in 1966 on Armed Forces Day to protest the exclusion of gays in the military, and he was arrested by police in 1967 when they shut down a play sponsored by HIC. In 1968, he led a picket of the Los Angeles Times for refusing to publish an ad for another gay-themed play. He continued to publish Tangents until 1973. Slater passed away in 1997 from rheumatic heart valvular disease. His HIC archives of more than 4,000 books, periodicals and pamphlets are now housed at the Vern and Bonnie Bullough Collection at California State University at Northridge. -- Box Turtle Bulletin
