Bill Cady, The Early Years … by Bill Cady 224<br />

whaling on someone else. From there, all hell broke loose. I waded into the fray, not<br />

able to move all that fast or turn very well because of my leg, but I unleashed a few<br />

punches and hurt a few guys.<br />

Then I started using my cane as a club and it worked a whole lot better. I‟d just<br />

finished wiping out some kid even taller than myself with a smack to the left side of his<br />

head, then the right, followed by hammering him between the eyes with my fist, when JC<br />

did something rather stupendous. He grabbed a guy by the collar and the crotch, raised<br />

him over his head, and dropped him onto the concrete. Unfortunately, it was the Sexton<br />

janitor, who‟d come along to help the teachers now trying to break things up.<br />

Someone grabbed JC‟s shoulder in an attempt to turn him around. The guy who<br />

grabbed him was obviously an adult, as he was bald on top. If he‟d actually seen JC, who<br />

was very well known around Sexton, it would‟ve meant a great deal of trouble later on<br />

for our local hero. Thankfully, I prevented an ID. I swung my cane in a vicious arc at<br />

that bald head and caught him right on the pate. He fell like a deer shot in the heart.<br />

Only then did I identify my victim. Ed Majeski, our football coach and the school<br />

athletic director. Well, dumb ass, you shouldn‟t‟ve been fuckin‟ around out here when<br />

we were settling things. That was the way I saw it. However, with someone that far up<br />

the food chain as a declared casualty, we decided that was enough and everyone took off.<br />

Don‟t tell me I‟m a helpless cripple, damn it. I can still take care of myself.<br />
