The kid on the bike looks pretty old to be a freshman, no?
Because it’s Friday, I went ahead and left this photo uncropped. I’m just nuts like that sometimes.

The person just left of the beanie-wearing bicyclist looks like Charles Maynard. And I’m wondering if the cyclist could be Prof. Bill Martin, who was a Baker College faculty associate.
That is indeed the estimable Bill Martin.
I also think it’s Bill Martin.
That looks like the future Dr. Dannenberg (not in the hat), so this is ’73 or later.
Or ’74 — according to the beanie.
74 could have been the class year, not the calendar year.
I was class of 74 and we had to wear beanies during O-week in the fall of 1970.
I am puzzled. I am clearly the distinguished man on the bicycle. (Even if I had a doppelganger, I would not have lent him my bike.) What puzzles me is the beanie. Leoguy says freshmen wore beanies during O-week in 1970, so I accept that as true, but I don’t remember ever seeing them, and I certainly don’t think I ever owned one. I would swear I had never had one on my head were it not for this picture. The glasses were mine. I believe they were in fashion at that time.
Bill – is that Jeff Kurtzman in the out of focus foreground?
I and few class-of-74 buddies think that the leaning guy on the left (also wearing fashionable glasses) was our classmate Derrick Lewis and that this photo was from O week 1970–although I don’t remember any beanies, either. Derrick, a bass player, became a well-known Houston jazz musician. Sadly, he was killed in a bike accident near UH in August 2012.
