Whitey sent me some pictures to scan and post since he is a computer dummy. I claim no responsibility for any of the content. He has hundreds of these Yosemite C4 photos and slides that he will send me if this works. He calls them "character studies".

The first year first team practice for the C4/ranger baseball game.

He doesn't know if this photo has made the light of day before but it was one of the later games.

Hawkins, Whitey and Lloyd Price during a TV series called Sierra

White's wedding to Gina 1974. Can you name these people? If you're in the photo and still alive, reveal yourself. White can't name everyone. He says that at least 6 are dead....

Last but not least, Whitey with his blind date, Miss Camp 4 1969 (He swears it's Flip Wilson aka Geraldine). He's really proud of this picture.

Yes. Actually, it's a smoking jacket. He was always a fashion hound.

That wedding photo is a classic. I would love to see some attempts at identifying all the characters!!! Nita?

Mr Carter, Some of those people are a bit before my time..plus i was too shy, blind, and my damn memory & names
.

But i see , Drone, White, Brossman, Millis,V Parker, K.T., Mathis , Bard, you....is that Lloyd Price holding a kid?...adding Mike Barker?. Bircheff ? The woman top far left has a Ballerini smile..but picture is tooo dark.
eKat, help me out...

edit...oops, eKat... i forgot to put in Pettrigrew....and i had Kathy>...K.T.

Second edit, eKat, I think the woman on the right back is Virginia Parker..

I think it's K.T. on the left with only a tiny bit of her showing.. The wine drinker bottle is obstructing her face.

Knew Mike in high school. Would be super happy to hear from him. Had some good and some tough times back then. Was glad when he escaped to Yosemite.
I think he will remember Bugsy and Jeannie Cunningham.
Any chance you could tell him,"hey"?

In the above, standing back of Mathis and Danny is Limber Linda Halvorsen.
Standing next to Jerry Anderson in the white dress is his first wife, Elsie.
Gene Foley might be in the top, second from left next to Carter.

Check out the Bird's style with beer can crushing. Doin' it with gusto!
