Hendersonians Have Good Year in 1955 Highlights
The Henderson community marked a notable 1955 with a major drought conference tied to the Henderson Holiday celebration, drawing Gov. Leo Hoech and local farmers. The city government was fully elected with Mayor Henderson and council members. Homes changed hands as Art Fritcher and the Kadels expanded housing, and the Home Cafe changed owners before sale. The school saw enrollment rise and the boys basketball team emerged as county contenders.
