I am Bill Nider, Mr Yaniw as I called hem was a good man his sons Paul and Kenny were good friends of mine when they lived in Redondo Beach California around 1958. Mike Schneider and I still talk about the good times we had with Paul and Kenny. It was in Mr Yaniw backyard that what I was making a rocket that ended up being a bomb but almost made me a girl and did blow off two of my fingers. I should have listened to Mr Yaniw he always tried to teach us to do things safely.
