Grundy County Republicans Back Rainbow in Senate Race
Grundy County Republicans indicate no organized effort to defeat Rainbow, the Republican senator candidate in the Grundy Black Hawk district. Rainbow and supporters toured Grundy Center with Pettit and Mandler as they attend the county fair.

Divorces were granted in several cases this term including Ratechford, Stambaugh, Littlefield, Moss, Hile, and Margriter.
