-Friend "Doug Willoughby"(names of others were replaced by psuedonyms for privacy reasons)were the smartest person Bill had ever met. He had drawn sketches of the mechanisms to break into the vending machine and during a film went to attempt breaking in. He did and after getting his desired candy bad he asked Bill what he wanted. Bill asked for Red hots (then his favourite confectionary).
-While waiting in the car for his father to complete an errand Doug repositioned one of the windshield wipers to face the street and sprayed passerby.
-Befriended a boy with taste and money named Jed
-Went with Jed to movies and other places, experiencing a more exravagant lifestyle.
-At the Iowa State fair, the year Bill turned fourteen, heading to the strippers tent, he and Doug Willoughby shockingly discovered that the year of Admission had changed once again, this time from fourteen to sixteen.
-Bill went to the state fair again the following week with Jed. Jed spent a large bit of time in the farmwives section and, sort of in return for Bills patience, bribed the strippers tent doorman to let Bill in. Getting into the strippers tent was the "highlight" of Bills life.
