An Easy Alex Trivia Quiz

Roundup readers have complained that the quiz found in the September archives (see the index over on the side) is too hard. Maybe so. Here's an easy one from your junior high years.

1. How much was a nickel coke at the Fountain of Youth? How much was penny candy?(Okay, that's the easiest one, now they get harder.)
2. How much was a hamburger at The Fountain when you were a freshman? How much for a "hot lunch" in the cafeteria? Big bonus if you can identify the teacher who punched your hot lunch ticket when you were in seventh grade.
3. The Park Region Echo was the big paper. What was the name of the tabloid-sized newspaper headquartered adjacent to the Fountain of Youth?
4. KCMT-TV Channel 7 was located on the other side of the Fountain. Who played Captain Space (Monk Mooney's boss)?
5. Who was Les Loch? Oops. That might be hard. Hint: He wore a uniform and didn't work for the school.
6. Name a basement pool hall frequented by your classmates.

Okay. Now send your answers to The Trailboss@swpub.com

If you have a picture of your dog, attach that. We're looking for a mascot for this page. If you have a horse, even better. JPEG is the format the Trailboss likes. He also likes looking at pictures of grandchildren if they have names and ages.
