If he can get himself or keep in the smarter classes(hopefully his high school has classes separated by merit level and not mixed, that kills it) I would assume it's possible for him to stay on a somewhat winning track.

And if that's the case, maybe he's wondering how to fix and better his city, but on some race basis. I've tried to theorize if I had unlimited resources and power, or even without, how to fix and make philly a viable clean city again, instead of being the worst in the nation. Which then I have nothing against that. But I've been trying to come up with an answer for that for too many years. But maybe sometimes I give some people too much credit.

Speaking of which, there's a little LIFE magazine suppliment in some newspapers this week with a story on the Strawberry Mansion section of philly. Used to be mansions before the depression, now is a depressed predominately black area(in whatever houses weren't demolished yet). Something to do with horses and innercity kids. It's a good and fun hobby, but I don't know if these kids are going to go buy a farm. And if they did, some developer will just turn it into a subdivison in the next week.
