Ice plan shoves building into place on moving slab
Santa Maria reports contractors Duane Carter and Leslie Leach used 100-pound ice blocks on a concrete slab to lift and lower a large feed store onto a new foundation after removing underside beams. The idea came from a comic strip seen by Carter’s wife. Meanwhile Pete Dawkins received an Army Edgerton award for captaining the 1958 team. In Dallas, Joe McElroy Jr earned a law degree at SMU with his wife watching, seven children left at home. A gorilla costume incident in Duarter led to a citation for wearing a disguise without a permit.
