- I believe he had a 2nd dan (or 3rd) under Robert Trias and was
- an up and comer in the early 1960s. Then he developed an attitude
- and so did his Black Dragon Fighting Society. His students were
- aggressive, but not well-trained.

- I remember one of his friends was killed by a spear after they
- attacked a Chinese kwoon in Chicago. Dante was an alchoholic and may
- have died of that (ie. I don't remember!).
