All the fun of the 1978 inauguration preparation included a contest for "Miss Print" from the staff at the newspaper plant. Ed Waggener wrote, "The winner of the title of Miss Print was pretty Joyce Ann Wisdom, head of the Waggener-Walker Circulation Department. In all $116 was raised by the Miss Print contest to add to the Inaugural Fund being raised by Don Moss. Mike Murrell, the famous Daily Statesman sports editor, was elected to escort Miss Wisdom. Votes for the escort didn't bring in any money, and Ralph Waggener was the actual winner, but he was disqualified when it was discovered that the telephone repairman had stuffed the ballot box for him." I think were the contest held today, pretty Joyce Wisdom Pyles would win again! -- LW Comments | Permalink

The Blue Heron was successful on the hunt

At the last spotting, I could see only the Blue Heron's catch that was clutched in his beak. I couldn't tell what he caught but I could see a silver glint when he raised his beak and swallowed. It's sure that one fewer little resident lives in the Town Creek now. The last I saw of the Blue Heron was his beak. - LW Comments | Permalink
