A Flash From The Past

Webmaster's Note: An anonymous sender sent this
undated picture and Jim remembers the visit but
can't recall the reason. So I'm asking you good folks
out there in webby land to check the flash drive in
your memory chip from the innermost web of your
mind and see if you could recollect this
distinguishing moment that's permanently captured
by a camera....the pennon or pennant has the
ensign of the National Association of the Deaf.
The setting is up there on Capitol Hill and the guilty
line up is as follows, left to right: Philip Hailey ('61,
former NCSD staff member and current NCSD
Museum curator), Boyd Arrington ('69), Senator Sam
Ervin (d-'85), Carolyn Shaffner ('68), Marty Blakely
('72) and of course our WHY man, Jim. Carolyn
Shaffner may have been a delegate from Gallaudet.
As mentioned above, this is an undated picture;
however, the late Same Ervin left office in 1974.
So this is a possibility that this picture was taken
say...1968-1969?
Update 03/16/09
There is an article in the
September/October 1969
issue of The North Carolinian about this
Washington, DC trip so this mystery might be
solved.
