I can tell you that it was the fall of 1969 (probably early November), just after Loara beat Magnolia for the Irvine League Championship (17-0). The incident referred to in the column was when a bunch of Magnolia students jumped some Loara students over by the Jack-In-the-Box next to La Palma Stadium. I think Jeff Delphs and Mendez might have been involved. This was a preamble to me getting hit from behind and knocked out by Mike Quarry after the Loara-Magnolia basketball game a few months later. --Alan Stark, Class of '69
