About this ebook

Saul will be taking you on an eighty-year verbal trip. You must fasten your reading seat belt because as you vicariously take this reading trip with him, some of the paths, lanes, dirt roads, highways, and expressways will be very bumpy; however, the scenes will be historically interesting. Billy, no Saul, no Mr. Bethay, no Airman Bethay, no Dean Bethay, no Big Ears, no the Dancer are a few of the names he is known by; what one calls him lets him know where he knows them from. When you finish reading Why I Have So Many Names, you may want to call him something else yourself too because he will take you back with him to the Cook County Training School, to Fort Valley State College, to Michigan State College, to Teachers College Columbia University, to Jersey City State College, and to the University of Hawaii. Airman Bethay will let you experience being in the Air Force for four years. The typist taught himself to type sixty-five words per minute on a manual typewriter. Mr. Saul will show you what it is like to teach high school boys and adults how to become better farmers. Dean Bethay will let you know what it is like to be an appreciated advisor in colleges and universities; counseling in junior high schools and colleges was Mr. Bethay's claim to fame. The professor ran workshops. The coordinator will share with you the personality it takes to work with different groups at the same time. The director was in charges of many programs for children and adults. The evaluator inspected summer camp programs for youth. The proofreader was in charge of editing books. "Honey" was noted for his great parties. The cook could hold his own in the kitchen. Watch out for the dancer when he is shooting pool. Doc spends most of his retirement time playing billiards and bid whist. The weekends are spent in the off and on Broadway theaters, concerts, and museums. The model at eighty-three-plus is still being asked to participate in fashion shows. Monday nights are reserved for Scrabble. Your generous purchasing donations will be used to help some needy students at Fort Valley State University, not the author. The author tries to live up to Fort Valley State (College) University's motto: If I have helped somebody as I traveled these eighty years, then my travel has not been in vain.
