This list page preserves a social field of names, as if the manuscript were keeping track of who belonged to a particular scene.

Pages like this matter because they show memory working archivally instead of lyrically. The names stand almost without explanation, but that bar reference at the end suggests a lived network of places, loyalties, and recognition.

A handwritten name register working archivally rather than lyrically: a top stack ('John Plant', 'Bud Vogal', 'Denny Phillips', 'Arthur Onstead', 'Tommy Forbes', 'Pete Faville') and a lower pairing ('Ami Griffin - Benny Kid Peret') anchored to a place, 'AT THE "BAR", U.S.C.' The boxer Benny Kid Paret's name surfacing in the bar makes the list feel like a real social network being preserved. This reading remains provisional because the page transcript is a partial, OCR-uncertain reading of a handwritten list where only the clearer names were kept.
