| 0:00.0 | This is a CBSi on the world. I'm John Bachelor. November 22nd, 1963. I'm old enough to remember. I'm old enough to remember I was in high school and we were at a football |
| 0:17.8 | rally. I was a tenth grader on the varsity football team. I felt very good sitting in front of the whole high school. |
| 0:25.8 | Laura Marion High School outside of Philadelphia. |
