JIM ZULEY LIKE FATHER AND SON 18 • HOLLYWOOD WEEKLY
I have been given a task to write about myself and I will do my best to share with you my story. Whatever do I start, well I suppose somewhere around the beginning I suppose. I was blessed to have been raised by parents who allowed me to experience a good childhood which consisted of a Catholic education. I grew up with two older brothers and one younger. In my high school years which I really enjoyed, I had started a car club which I named “ The Coachmen.” Cars were a big part of our existence at that time ( 1965 to 1968 ) which consisted mainly of the big block Chevy’s, Ford’s and Dodge. While we cruised the radio would be playing the new released songs by Elvis, The Beach Boys, The Beatles, The Moody Blues, The Doors and many more. Yes I would say those were the days for sure. Moving along after graduation I decided to go to Wilber Wright Jr and Triton Jr college. While on my journey through college I did follow the news and the Vietnam war always had updates. Everyone had a draft number and mine was so high that I never would have been drafted. Another reason I would have not have been drafted was I was attending college full time which was the case of everyone in my neighborhood. I wanted in. I was old fashioned John Wayne, Henry Fonda Stars and Stripes -- where do I sign?
