Crook
at It Again!
Garadinia- Vinnie
Crook was up to his old tricks again last evening as Vinnie and his pal
Larry sat down to a hot meal at Flood's Diner at Main and Elm when the bet
was made. Larry bet Mike Smith of Elmhurst that old Vinnie couldn't eat
four pounds of Flood's famous garlic-Tabasco mashed potatoes.
Mike figured there was no way that
Vinnie could down that much of Flood's spuds with out getting sick, so he
took the wager. Now you recall from last fall, when Larry ate a whole pork
loin that had been "Shake n Baked" with a half gallon of Libby's
sauerkraut at one sitting for a $2 wager. Old Mike took that bet too,
you'd think that boy learn by now. (cont'd Page 3).
Garden Show Opens Without a Hitch
Ida-Mae Baker's Daisies Take Top First Day Honors
Creighton- The
Creighton Lady's Equistrian Auxiliary Annual Garden Show opened yesterday
. Russelton's Ida-Mae Baker swept the Common Perennials division with her
spectacular African Daisies. "They grew like weeds this year,"
said the honored Ida-Mae. This will be the first year that the Auxiliary
will be without their horses after complaints about the flies in prior
years. The unusually wet summer prevented the Venus Flytraps from maturing
in time for the show. More in Farm Report.

Towel
Missing -Family Aghast
Evidence points to the eldest son-in-law
Suspect was last seen on the southbound 12:18 to
Hardeeville
Jekyll Island- Local
Police report that a perpetrator entered Muzzy Eisenman's rental cottage,
removed a rare ivy towel and departed through the unlocked front door. Mrs
Eisenman didn't notice the towel was missing until she did the weekly
laundry down at the mill pond late Tuesday. "The only person I can
recall, "Muzzy stated, "that had a thing for my towels, was that
Paul fella," referring to her son-in-law Paul Hinchcliff, of
Charleston. Mr. Hinchcliff could not be reached for comment.
"Never did like that boy", a
long time next-neighbor who wished not to be identified stated,
"Always checking out my linens for vines." According to eye
witnesses at the rail yard, a man that fit Mr. Hinchcliff's description (a
damn Yankee long haired tree hugger) was hopping the southbound 12:18.
If you see the towel or Mr Hinchcliff,
ignore them. They should be considered mostly harmless.
