New Glarus Man Plans Open House
Fred Streiff 74 plans an open house at his long running New Glarus garage on Highway 69 marking 53 years as a local businessman. The shop, now run by Abner Anderson, has operated since Streiff began in 1897 with a blacksmithing start. Streiff recalls early cars, dirt roads, and pioneering gear such as a gas welder, plus ten years on the village board. He also announces plans to incorporate with his employer, with Articles of Incorporation for a $50,000 business. The garage staff includes Scott Heisler, William McFadden, Ed Richert, Junior Klassy, Delmar Kubly, and William Fuchs.
