This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

Teenage "Rumble" Halted in 1967: It's Rochelle Vs. DeKalb
From the August 30, 2017, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois) "Looking Back."
1967, 50 Years Ago.
"DeKalb police halted a teenage 'rumble' Tuesday night before it got underway when officers broke a group of some 30 Rochelle youths and about the same number of DeKalb youngsters on West Lincoln Highway.
"Officers said investigation showed the Rochelle youths had come to DeKalb for the purpose of 'doing battle' with DeKalb teens at a service station parking lot on West Lincoln."
