On the evening of May 23, 1969, your humble columnist graduated from Trinity High School at the Louisville Gardens auditorium, an old armory on Walnut Street (since renamed Muhammed Ali Boulevard).
A few blocks away from that celebration was City Hall, where Louisville’s mayor may have been turning out the lights in his office. The mayor that year was one Kenneth A. “Kenny” Schmied, a Republican.
He had succeeded another Republican mayor, William O. “Bill” Cowger who, prohibited by law from running for a second term, had been elected to represent Louisville in Congress.
More than 52 years after I received that diploma, Louisville hasn’t had another Republican mayor since the end of Schmied’s term. The reasons for this drought are many and varied, but as Kentucky gradually became more Republican over the ensuing decades, Louisville and Jefferson County became more solidly Democratic.

A Christmas gift to a six-year-old boy in Louisville in 1963 several years later began to take on a life of its own, especially when it was connected to the late Muhammad Ali.
Billy Pfund was surprised that Christmas with two pairs of boxing gloves from his aunt and uncle. But that wasn’t all. One of the gloves had been autographed by Cassius Clay.
“My uncle Cliff worked in the hat department at Levy Brothers department store in downtown Louisville,” Pfund said. “This was before the boxer became Muhammad Ali and before he became the champ.”
Levy Brothers was an upscale department store at Third and Market from 1892 until 1980. The building is now the Spaghetti Factory. As Clay’s professional boxing career began to evolve after his 1960 Olympic gold medal performance, he began to upgrade his wardrobe.
