John Tanner, Mad Mel, Dave McCormick and Jerry Landa are there.
Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who couldn't hear the music.

Funny how things trigger memories. As soon as I saw this pic for the first time in almost 40 years it took me back to 1966 when C-FUN had their own Batman and Robin. Jolly John was Batman and weekend jock Robbie Upton was Robin. Is Nikki Upton on News 1130 any relation to Robbie?

George Morris, Buzz Leboe, Ed Kargl are in there.

Others that should be in there somewhere, but haven't found yet, include Cameron Bell, Ronn Grimster, Andy Laughlin, Roff Johannson, to name a few.

And can anyone tell me which one is Mad Mel? All I've ever seen of him is that cartoon pic on the back of some surveys.

Mel is between Tom Peacock and Daryl B in the almost upper left hand corner. He's the one with the big shades.

Don Richards is left of the CFUN is HERE sign right below Ed Farey.

That's Brian Lord under Mr CFUN on the left, and Freddy under Red (with a pool cue?)

Near the middle there is Mr C-FUN [a distant relative I understand]. On his left is Red. Is the old guy with a mic in one hand and a pipe in the other on his right, our left, Bill Ward?

I recall some sort of a public affairs/phone in show on Sunday evenings. For some reason the name Bill Ward's Dog House sticks with me. Anyone remember?

I also remember Chuck Bailey from the Vancouver School Board hosting some type of a talk/public affairs show Sunday evenings.

Is that Cameron Bell taking a swig from a bottle of Coke just below Robin?
