Radio commentator Lisa Sergio to speak at Vermont College
UPI reports Europe's first woman radio commentator Lisa Sergio will speak Thursday at Vermont College on The New Light Behind the Iron Curtain. Sergio, who has lived in Woodstock, is active in the Vermont Council on World Affairs. In St Albans, a new city office is to be built but Mayor Fountain ordered City Manager Sterling Morris to vacate. Since 1958 the manager and mayor shared the same office, and the council split to partition a section of the chamber for an office while leaving allocation undecided.
