Frinends fifty years old their stale addresses......

During last few days in final BSC class ending inMarch 1967 I had collected names of the classmates with their addresses thinking they would remain in same places. Now I realise most of them have left Bangalore but their addresses remain..Ofcourse I didnot dare to get the addresses of teachers...being afraid to meet them anywhere outside college...

I used to collect autographs from my teachers and friends......one of them wrote....Failures are only stepping stones to success...
another wrote ..Life is not a bed of roses.... 
another wrote...Full many of gem of purest ray serene  etc....ending
the deep unfathomed caves of ocean bear..

We had two ladies in the class and one Christian sister ...I could get the autograph from two of them...Sorry to feel I have not met most of them for last fifty years...

Like many other things I am yet to trace  out  the autograph book which I had preserved caefully...

That is life...

       Mr.P.R Muralidhar, No.12  A  Yeshwanthapur  Main  Road,Gokul  I  Stage,Bangalore..12 A……..He  was in  Seshadripuram while we were  at   School /College   . He studied in   Gandhinagar High  School,  near  Kumara Park… joined at St  Josephs   Pre  University…..in 1964….

I had  prepared  a list of    addresses of  our  classmates while leaving  Final Year  BSC  at  St  Josephs…  and   the  above are the   addresses  of  the     Josephites..…who  are  in  the  nook  and  corner  of  our  Country and    also  abroad…..

Chakravarthy, Venugopal, Sridhar,Ramakrishna  Rao,and Murlidhar    continued  your studies  at  The  Indian  Institute  Of  Science I  think…..
Mr.  Lakshmanan I  was  told by one of my nieces  was  her   BCOM   Class..  Lecturer in  MES  College  Bangalore…  in Commerce or  so  some  years  back…

   I  am unable to get the  address of one Mr. Janakiraman  who  was  staying  in Vyalikavel      and  pursued  his  studies  in   Engineering  in  Banglaore    but  not  in  Tata  Institute..

There  was one   more Mr.A.R  Badrinath    who  was in seshadripuram  Main Road….I don’t  get his  address  Mr.Chakravarthy  may    know  him….He  came  from Calcutta or  so…..
  I know   all   these     are    forty  years old  addresses… Many of   our  friends  would be elsewhere in  India  or abroad….Anyway  it  is  pleasure to recollect our  roll nos.   201 to 265    I remember  our     Trigonometry/Calculus/Dynamics  Lecturer…Sri..K.S.,    Sundaresan  used  to  call  us by  numbers  while  marking  attendance…EVERYDAY…….I remember   his   hour or class  was  everyday………

Incidentally Our  Chakravarthy  may  also  remember     that  we  were more than  100   students in  Standard … 8….    at  Seshadripuram High  School     in  Bangalore with   double shift system and  I  had  the  advantage of   my     name being  almost  in  the    end….the   alphabet  V     being  towards  the  end…   my  number was 101  or  so…I  don’t  remember  exactly  but  it   was above 100…although  I  never  got  100 marks  in any  subjects  but   had  the  privilege    of   my  number   remaining  above  100…   a matter  of  credit   …..
Sorry for furnishing  stale addresses…
