Twenty years ago officials reported a burglary at Will J. Wilcox’s East Main street grocery, with nitro nitrate explosives and about $125 in cash stolen, plus over $200 in checks.

Community members also discussed a citywide coupon for opinions on the Fair Grounds sale and debated the legality of a long-term mortgage purchase. C M Stewart and Company renovated their East Main street store with a new metal ceiling and redecorated interiors. Miss Barbara Young enjoyed a birthday surprise party at her home with friends, music, and a luncheon.
