Windrixville, Oklahoma 1967­­Johnny and       

PonyBoy two “Greasers” become heroes!         

While an elementary school was on a field               

trip to a church in Windrixville, the church               

suddenly burst into flames. Luckily the         

teachers and students were outside. While           

the firemen and police officers were           

evacuating the area, the teachers realized         

that there were still students missing. They             

then heard screaming coming from inside           

the church. The two brave teens Johnny and             

PonyBoy could not be contained. Johnny         

punched the window with his fist and dove             

thru it, PonyBoy followed. All the children           

were rescued safely. However this story           

does not have a happy ending. Johnny was             

severely injured when a falling beam fell on             

him breaking his back. PonyBoy escaped           

with bruises and minor burns, thanks to his               

denim jacket. Which protected him from the             

heat and flames.
