The third program of "Division Street: America" features four profiles: George Drossos, an elderly, Greek man, the Thacker family who recently moved to Chicago, Mrs. Webb, a corner store owner and Native American Benny Bearskin. George Drossos talks about first moving to Chicago and getting acclimated to the city. He recalls visiting other states for a month and then having that feeling of "nostos," or wanting to return home to Chicago. A mother of 15 children and 21 grandchildren, Mrs. Thacker said she doesn't like all the hoodlum business that goes on in Chicago.
