The Duke of Earl – Ed O’Rourke
The Duke of Earl was a favorite song in spring, 1962, my last year in high school. In more recent years, other groups have done a fine job with the same song. I recently found the Darts turned in a fine performance. They were a British group, popular in the late 1970s and early 1980s. They all seem…

The Associated Press Looks at American Catholicism – Ed O´Rourke
In preparing this article, reporters spent much time at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas where I was a freshman in 1962-1963. I return from time to time, sit in on classes and visit friends.
