World champion tightwad tourist tale from Ingomar
J F Lewis of the Ekalaka Eagle forwards two clipped Montana stories about a world class tightwad touring to a national park. The tale notes a Page County Iowa landowner driving a Buick with a family of six who allegedly spent only about 1.90 on meals, prompting a local cafe owner to faint and doctors to treat him. The piece links the event to a local club and a theater benefit for Fremont County Fair, while also reporting unrelated local incidents and travel plans.
