CLIFF RICHARD US WORLD TOUR,   APRIL 1981

Yo-Yo Toy Guru Pedro Flores

Dear Melba,

 Very interesting.  I love
playing the Yo-Yo.  I bought a Yo-Yo made of wood not plastic in
Mexico 15 years ago.   I play with it occasionally and practice some
Yo-Yo tricks.  Hi to YOYOs, MSN group members.

 budz,

interested?

Melba

Pedro Flores

The Flores yo-yo was the first yo-yo manufactured in the United
States, its originator was Pedro Flores. Pedro Flores is considered the
original yo-yo guru. Mr. Flores was the singular most important person in
introducing the word "yo-yo" to the United States. Although the yo-yo as a toy
(known as a bandalore) has been used for centuries, even existing in the
United States for years prior to Mr. Flores, as one astute observer noted in
the late 1920’s "we’ve all done the yo-yo before but we never had a name for
it."

Pedro
Flores was a native of Vintar, Ilocos Norte, Philippines. He
came to the United State in 1915. He attended the High School of Commerce in
San Francisco 1919-1920 then he took up the study of Law at the University of
California Berkeley and the Hastings College of Law in San Francisco.

Flores dropped out of school for reasons
unknown and moved to Santa Barbara, California. He worked at odd jobs for
years and at the time of starting his yo-yo business he was working as a
bellboy.

He
developed his vision for the yo-yo’s potential when he read about a man
selling a ball attached to a rubber band who made a million dollars. He
remembered the game yo-yo, which was played for hundreds of years in the
Philippines, and he thought it had a good market possibility in the U.S. Mr.
Flores was quoted saying "I do not expect to make a million dollars, I just
want to be working for myself. I have been working for other people for
practically all my life and I don’t like it."

In early
1928 Flores came to Los Angeles and asked some wealthy
Philippine for assistance in manufacturing yo-yos. His friends thought him
crazy and he returned to Santa Barbara with only his dream. Being a true
entrepreneur, at the age of 29, on June 9^th 1928, he applied and
received a certificate of conducting business for the Yo-yo Manufacturing
Company in Santa Barbara. On June 23, 1928 he made 1 dozen yo-yos by hand and
began selling them to neighborhood children. By November of 1928 his company
had 2000 yo-yos and he was able to attract two American financiers, James and
Daniel Stone of Los Angeles. Now with the ability to produce machine made
yo-yos, four months later, over 100,000 yo-yos had been produced. By November
of 1929 three factories were making 300,000 yo-yos daily and employing 600
workers. These companies were the Flores and Stone, Los Angeles; The Flores
Yo-yo Corporation, Hollywood; and the Yo-yo Manufacturing Company, Santa
Barbara.

Flores also inaugurated the yo-yo
spinning contest which spread the first yo-yo frenzy in the United States in
late 1928 and 1929. The yo-yo was promoted as the Flores Yo-yo "The Wonder
Toy" and using a phrase which now familiar with a slight variation "If it
isn’t Flores it isn’t a yo-yo" as the slogan. Although early contests resulted
in the spread of the yo-yo fad they were clearly different than the more
modern contests. In the initial contests endurance was the main event. The
winner was the individual who could keep his or her yo-yo spinning up and down
without missing, for the longest duration. Many contests resulted in ties
after hours of continuous yo-yoing by stubborn competitors refusing to quit.
Frequently, the champion of these endurance events was determined by drawing
straws. Other contest categories included the yo-yo thrown farthest with
complete return and the largest number of perfect spins in a five minute
period. Prizes were also for hand made yo-yos, and yo-yos made out of bicycle
wheels and wood barrel tops were not uncommon submissions. Early contests
could be found anywhere but on November 22, 1929 the Gates Theater in
Portsmouth, Virginia, became the first theater to offer a contest. For the
rest of the 20’s and 30’s theaters became popular sites for contests. Although
some Flores yo-yo strings were made out of silk which allowed for less sleep
action than later cotton strings. Several different designs of the Flores
yo-yo were done. Prices in 1929 ranged from 15 cents to $1.50 each depending
on the design and decoration. Flores employed Dorothy Carter as his chief
designer of his yo-yos.

Although
Pedro Flores was frequently described as the inventor of the yo-yo, Mr. Flores
never personally claimed to have invented the yo-yo, and he always mentioned
it’s past history as a centuries old Philippine game. He was also frequently
described as the patent holder of the yo-yo, but yo-yos (Bandalores) prior to
Pedro Flores had already been patented. Even though patent applied for and
patent pending are often seen on Flores yo-yos this was a
technique used to dissuade other toy companies from producing yo-yos. There
was no legal patent held for the standard yo-yo by Pedro Flores. He did apply
for and receive a trademark for the Flores Yo-yo and this was registered on
July 22, 1930. It was shortly after this that Flores sold his interest in the
yo-yo factories which were later acquired by the Donald Duncan Yo-yo
Company.

At the
end of 1929 a true yo-yo craze was going on across the country initially
inspired by Flores but new competitors had entered the arena
including Don Duncan, Lewis Marx and others. Although Duncan’s name is most
associated with the popularity of the yo-yo contests, the original yo-yo fire
was fueled by Pedro Flores. It is uncertain exactly at what date Duncan Yo-yo
Company acquired the Flores Yo-Yo name (probably 1930) but it did have the
Flores trade mark legally assigned to it in 1932. For a period of time in the
early 1930’s Duncan corporation not only sold Duncan Yo-yos but they also sold
Flores Yo-yos as well. In very early contests in 1931 either a genuine Flores
yo-yo or a genuine Duncan Gold Seal Yo-yo could be used in the
competitions.

Pedro
Flores was reported to have sold his interest in his yo-yo manufacturing
companies for greater than one quarter of a million dollars, which during the
depression was a fortune. Mr. Flores was quoted saying "I am more interested
in teaching children to use the yo-yos than I am in manufacturing of yo-yos." Flores followed through by becoming one of the key promoters in
Duncan’s early yo-yo campaigns. Especially during 1931-32, Mr. Flores was
instrumental in setting up many of the promotions in the cities where the
early Duncan contests were being held. The contest’s were vastly changed from
the initial contests ran by Flores just two years previously. These contests
now required a series of tricks similar to modern day contests with ties being
broken by the number of loop the loops completed.

Flores stayed involved with yo-yos most
of his life and even after W.W. II he helped Joe Radovan in the establishment
of the Chico Yo-yo Company. He also started the Flores Corp. of America in
1954 which briefly produced yo-yo in the 1950’s. Although Flores has less name
recognition in the general public compared to other yo-yo manufacturing
companies it was Flores who introduced the yo-yo craze to America

Thank You All Vote Support for Bush

My dear relatives and
friends all over United States,

Thank you so much for
supporting President Bush in his presidential bid for re-election.  I know
you are so tired of my political blogs for I am too (well, not really).  My
Filipino friends in Florida ( including fellow Thomasian Julie P.)
overwhelmingly voted for President Bush.  In California, 300,000 Filipinos
voted.  In heavily democratic Illinois, 44 percent of Republicans
voted for him.  In this election, 58 million Americans gave him
the biggest popularity votes in the history of the country.  If the
Republicans make good with their promises and play their card right, future
presidential candidates like John McCain, Rudy Giuliani, Colin Powell,
Condoleezza Rice, maybe even Arnold Schwarzenegger will be a popular political
player. As participant in this election,  I feel so proud to be a
voter and so you are!

M & N of Texas, I
couldn't wait to eat my feel-good food of big and juicy fatty steak and baked
potato.  Oops!  What am I saying?  I feel really really
good!

E-Day

Today is the
day ... Election Day.  I woke up this
cloudy morning with so much great expectation.  I'll say it loud and
I'll say it proud.  I am a faithful voter.  I am a responsible
citizen exercising my right and freedom to vote under the protection of the
American Constitution.  Citizens of the world living under monarchy and
dictatorship have been denied such call for political and civic duty.  This
day is another memorable history in the making.

There's a
slight drizzle as I walked to my car to drive to my polling place.  There's
one thing I'm proud of my district - my name is always in the list of
voters.  The election officers are well-trained, competent, very
helpful and respectful.  I was shown to my booth and I started to
punch the names of my chosen candidates.  I have a slight dyslexia and I
have always been afraid I'd punch the wrong candidate.  So, I'd read the
names three or four times.  I skipped voting for the judges.  There
are so many of them and saying yes or no to retain them will be a
waste of time and quite stupid for I don't know who or what they are. 
I voted NO to government funding of substance abusers.  If you have money
to buy drugs, you have money to pay for it  your
own.

We'll be back to normality the day
after today.  The choice is clear and the clear choice is President
Bush.  I have no doubt about this.  Forsaking blind and unthinking
allegiance, voters of this great nation will realize vacillation is absolutely
not the right way to a stronger defense and security.  I totally
reject voting for a spineless, splish-splash leader.

My wishful thinking is for President
Bush to give marvelous Martha
Stewart an early pardon after his re-election.    She
needs to be home with her good things for the holiday.  Christmas is a
season of peace and forgiveness.  My yard is full of leaves and twigs
now.  She must be missing here beautiful garden.  It was so windy a
few days ago and the trees are all bare of leaves and squirrel's holes are
everywhere.  I wonder where is  Mexican Tony, my human lawnmower? He
calls me "Yes, Ma'am" all the time.  I better give him a call.  I need
a fall clean-up.

This is the last week. A.L.T.
Vice-President Melba will be a
resident of the Land of Lincoln.  She has a good-paying job waiting for her
in California.  We all will miss her at our A.L.T - RHC Christmas Party at
the CHicago Brauhaus first week of December. 

A.L.T.
all-time favorite supreme singing diva DIANA ROSS will be a guest on THE VIEW (ABC) this
coming November 4th, Thursday.  I hope she'll sing my favorite song
"Someday Will Be Together."

Straight Republican

Today is just a great day for Republicans like
me.  No No No... Don't let me be misunderstood.  I'm not talking about
gays.  I'm talking about Republicans voting in a straight ticket. 
Old Conservative Republicans are no longer shy and passive.  Those
days are totally gone - when another baby boomer president was elected in the
dawning of the 21st Century and his name is George W. Bush.  Young White,
Black and minority Conservative Republicans have joined the party of Abraham
Lincoln.  Honest Abe once said, "Whatever you are, be a good one." 
One primo supremo example of a good one is -  RUSH LIMBAUGH.  www.rushlimbaugh.com
 Because of him we became radioactive.  The atomic particles of truth, attacks and
counterattacks coming out of the mouth of the bombastic radio talk show
host have energized the conservative base and his 20 million listeners in full
force.  We're behind this David against the Goliath of media press. 
Yesterday, as I drove around the block of my once democratic neighborhood, I saw
signs after signs, big and small, for Bush-Cheney '04
in front of houses.  I did not see this in the days before the November
2000 election.  My Wisconsin friend told me Bush has increasing
supporters.  This is wonderful news.  We've been timid and somewhat
inert then.  But not anymore.  Supporters and volunteers have been
energized.  However, there's one unlucky Republican candidate in my 9th
Congressional District and her name is the current State Representative
Elizabeth Coulson.  Someone (probably a Democrat) stole her signs and
removed them.  Someone also pulled a dirty trick on me - only because I
allowed it just to see how it will happen.  I was watching NCIS when I got
a phone call from someone posing to be a Republican.  The very moment I
talked to him I had a bad feeling.  Because of my psychic nature I can feel
bad vibration from people and the universe.  Since I'm a risk taker I
gave my address - a public information anyway.  It's all right to be duped
once in a while for I believe in Honest Abe.  Days later I received a
letter from a Democrat candidate asking for my vote.  Oops! Sorry.  My
fellow Republicans of conscience, I always vote STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN.  You
know what that means - I'm voting for Alan Keyes as Senator from Illinois.  He's intelligent and
an excellent debater.  Above all, I relate with him.  I'm a person of
conscience.  He may not win according to the polls but you know, nothing is
carte blanche in politics.

I must confess to my fellow Republicans I am a
Neo-Conservative Republican.  Now, how would you define a
Neo-Conservative?  The closest I can relate with is the Rumsfeld Doctrine
or the Wolfowitz plan.  To learn about them is to learn who I am.  But
Conservatives and Neo-Conservatives can learn how to get along.  This was
proven time and time again under the strong leadership of President Bush. 
To quote Teri O'Brien (WLS' intelligent radio talk show host www.wlsam.com ),

            
"We can disagree without being disagreeable."

There's something about Kerry lately.  He's shouting more and
more in his campaign speeches.  The more he shouts, the more he becomes
angry and ugly.  Little people like me get scared and alarmed with his kind
of personality.  Extremely low on likeability.  You know who loves
this kind of talk from him?  The Michael Moores, the Deaniacs and
Hollywood stars.  Republicans should at least have one ad of Kerry
"morphing" from his Botox-injected face to Frankerrystein.  It will never
happen.  Republicans are not that desperate like
Kerry.

Here's another not so surprising thing about Kerry judging by his
records.  Just like in 1971, he's accusing our brave soldiers in Iraq of
incompetence - for not securing explosives after the bombing of
Baghdad.  My dear relatives and friends all over the United States, it's
almost tantamount to calling the soldiers sacrificing their lives for our
security here at home DUMB AND STUPID.  Folks, these are well-trained
soldiers under the command of Four-Star
Generals  and one strong Commander-in-Chief! Even I, a private
citizen, would know what to do! Kerry is just weak on defense!!  One thing
I've learned early in life living here in the United States - Americans are not
fools.  Americans are experts in turning the table around.  Believe
me.

The autumn leaves
are falling more and more by my bedroom windows.   We're reaching the
political crescendo and before we know it we have elected or reelected a
president. 

President Bush
is an excellent position to win reelection.  The current
unemployment rate continues to be 5.4 percent in October and November 2nd is
barely a week away.  In reality, Americans don't pay attention to the
strength of the dollar, inflation, GDP (Gross Domestic Product) and the
deficit.  I, myself, only pay attention to the overall economic
growth.  I watch Night Business Report nightly  www.nbr.com  The
economy is getting stronger.   None of my friends are out of
work.  Many Filipino Americans vote for the Republican Party because it is
the party of their values, hopes and dreams.  I, myself, aspire to be
comfortably rich (so far without success because I'm lazy) and to pay as
small a tax as possible.  Some liberal Filipino American newspaper writers
call me "white" because I live in the suburb in which there are very few
Blacks.  This is a myth.  All of us now live in a diversified
suburbia.  Most Filipino Americans have very strong family ties giving a
great deal of emphasis on  education for it is what will lift the lowliest
to the highest of aspiration.  Only President Bush made the connection with
education in the debate.  The Blacks voting for President Bush
have doubled up to 19 percent.  I was listening to Drudge Report and
he had the same question as  I did to my friends when he said, "What did
Clinton do for the Blacks?"  In his eight years as president I could not
think of one.  President Bush had Powell, Rice and Ron Page - all Blacks in
cabinet position.   Afghanistan just had a democratic election and
a president after more than thirty years of oppressive regime. 
It was a very successful war under the watch President Bush and voters should
never forget the 9/11 Tragedy.  Iraq is back to sovereign democracy without
Saddam Hussein and once the U.S. election is over, President Bush will be able
to decide and continue plans that are being undermined by Kerry and the
democrats.  To quote Teri O'Brien, a local Chicago radio talk show
host....www.wlsam.com

                      
Bush is Mr. Right

                  
Kerry is Mr. Right Now

It is also the
season of the hunt for red October surprise.  The pro-Kerry
elitist media (97 percent) are running out of barrage of dirty tricks and
bombshells to throw at our beloved President Bush.  But little people
like us living in small town America are much smarter and we don't buy their
lies, misinformation and false rhetoric.  Their circulations are down
because of the internet; their writers and reporters (New York Times and
Washington Post) are lazy and discredited plagiarists; their CEOs are crooks
(Chicago Sun Times); their TV anchors (Dan Rather and CBS) have no
credibility.  The press with their poison pens are feeding us falsehood and
all we can do is throw up.  They are only creating a backlash for their
flip-flop candidate.  My dear relatives and friends all over the United
States, how are we going to treat these yahoos?  I urge you all to
BOYCOTT them including Hollywood celebrities.  Little people like us don't
have anything in common with them.  Who you vote for is very private. 
Do not watch CBS, ABC, CNN and do not subscribe to big city
liberal newspapers.   I never did.   People I know
don't watch them.  I just go to the library if I like to
read something.  I used to surf and watch TV for 14 hours....I
recently cut it to less than 5 hours (Jeopardy with handsome Alex Trebek, Perry
Mason, NCIS and BBC News).

Well, I've got
to go to Dengeo's now and order my favorite
spare ribs, garlic bread and Coke.  Bye...soon
we'll be singing old winter
songs...

William Shakespeare Kerry & Edwards

What do
Kerry and Edwards
have in common
with Shakespeare?

Let's see if I understand how the world works
lately..

If a
man cuts his finger off
while slicing salami at work,

he blames
and sues the restaurant

If you smoke three packs a day for 40 years and die of lung
cancer,

your
family blames and sues the tobacco company.

If your neighbor crashes into a tree while driving home drunk,
he blames and sues the bartender.

If
your friend is shot by a deranged madman,
you
blame and sue the gun manufacturer.

And if a crazed person breaks into the cockpit and tries to
kill the pilot at 35,000 feet, and the passengers kill him
instead, the
mother of the crazed deceased blames and sues the
airline.

I must have lived too long to understand the world as it is
anymore.

So, in
the Merchant of Venice, Shakespeare wrote "Let's kill all the
lawyers."
To
paraphrase: Let's NOT vote for Kerry and
Edwards  for their first name is SUE!
