Fisher honored at Junction in dedication of Library Annex
Former Congressman O C Fisher attended dedication ceremonies in Junction Saturday for the Library Annex now displaying his congressional memorabilia. He left Monday for a two week rest with friends near Cortez New Mexico saying he is working on several projects since retirement after declining to seek re election in 1974. Fisher served 34 years as representative of Texas largest congressional district. His successor, Bob Krueger of New Braunfels, was vacationing in Jamaica and is due home soon. Fisher also said he is writing another book while at his ranch between Junction and London and at a San Angelo office. He plans relaxation in the Colorado Rockies and fishing for mountain trout.
