Original music was everywhere and the streets were lined with packed clubs and restaurants., and after hours coffeehouse discussion still remembered in the new millennium. Founded by the beatniks of the early 1950's, it was a time before orbiting satellites, the Internet, cell phones and mass electronic media. This generation began questioning traditional majority values in art, literature, and political self expression. Like New York's Greenwich Village, a central hub of The Beat Generation, Gaslight Square in St. Louis supported and helped construct this important alternative American scene. Writers Jack Kerouac and Alan Ginsberg and others traveling coast to coast would make that delibrate stop in St. Louis to witness Gaslight Square. Gaslight Square was one of the coolest and hippest neighborhoods on earth. Many top entertainers such as The Smothers Brothers, Lenny Bruce, Miles Davis, Barbra Streisand, Jackie Mason, Mike Nichols and Elaine May, Woody Allen, Dick Gregory, Jack E. Leonard, and Phyllis Diller, graced the stages of Gaslight Square early in their careers. The area boasted of live jazz, poetry, great food, Irish dancing, and street cars. It would take a half hour to go 2 blocks by car. Gaslight Square was truly a unique hot area of sophisticated entertainment. Then Gaslight Square died. This focal point synthesized into a phenomenon that burned brightly for just a few years, was then allowed by lack of political will, police protection, and public apathy to fade, to dim, and to die. Not a trace of Gaslight Square remains today, aside from the website: www.gaslightsquare.org Two documentary were produced about Gaslight Square within the last several years. "Gaslight Square The Forgotten Landmark" (Bruce Marren/2002) explores the history by the people who developed the area. Includes interviews with the Smothers Brothers, Jay Landesman, Bob Kuban, and many others. "Gaslight Square The Legend Lives On" (Bruce Marren/2005) looks at the influence it had on the city, uncovers relics, and what has happened to it today. Includes interviews with Phyllis Diller, Billy Peek, Jonnie King, and many others. [edit] Sourceswww.gaslightsquare.org, "Gaslight Square the Forgotten Landmark" (2002)

There he grew up and attended Woodbury Junior/Senior High School. By sophomore year, it was evident that basketball was his true calling. Standing at 6'6" and weighing close to 200 pounds[1], Budd was a man among boys. He possessed technical skills comparable to a point guard and blossomed into a star. He earned two first team All-Colonial Conference selections during his junior and senior years as well as an All-South Jersey selection during senior year. His talent interested many colleges, one of which was Wake Forest University. [edit] Wake Forest University[edit] FreshmanAfter graduating high school in 1956, Budd went on to play for Division I Wake Forest. Due to NCAA rules (circa 1971 and earlier), freshmen in college were not allowed to play varsity basketball. [2] [edit] SophomoreWhen he became an eligible sophomore during the 1957-58 season, he played in 23 games, averaging 15.8 ppg on a 47.5 field goal % as a forward. He also grabbed 8.5 rpg and shot 66.8% from the charity stripe (free throw line).[3] Assists were not yet tracked in college. [edit] JuniorPlayed in 24 games and averaged 14.6 ppg on 43.2% shooting. Snatched 8.6 rebounds per game and had a 66.8 free throw %.[4] [edit] SeniorPlayed in all 28 games while averaging 10.7 ppg and a career-high 10.0 rpg.

[edit] NBAAfter enjoying success at the college level, Budd was drafted after his senior year by the New York Knicks in 1960.[6] He was the 10th overall selection in the second round (back then there were fewer teams in the league and each round only had eight selections). He was drafted the same year that Oscar Robertson and Jerry West were picked #1 and #2, respectively. Though never an All-Star, Budd did enjoy moderate success while playing at the highest level. One of his claims to fame was that he was one of the five starters for the Knicks that attempted to guard Wilt Chamberlain on the night of his record-setting 100-point performance. He is the only person from Woodbury, NJ to ever play in the NBA. [edit] NBA Career Stats
