Dec. 7th always brings the Grove to mind. I was ten and was at the Grove with a slightly older friend, Clarence Highlander. The projectionist stopped the movie and placed a hand written note in the projector with the news of the attack on Pearl Harbor.It was still open twelve years later when my girl friend and I would go there.
After the hospital closed it was taken over by the U of I for three years as an extension campus.
