Stratton was one of the Los Angeles chapter’s most colorful characters (as well as one of its smartest) for some 50 years until his passing earlier this year. Among his many special quirks, he would administer Spelling Bees in which he would sometimes ‘accidentally’ mispronounce the word to be spelled, which of course made things more challenging for us. This year’s Spelling Bee will pay homage to this tradition, so make sure not to rely completely on the administrator’s pronunciation, because it is not always going to be completely correct!
