Melanie Oren recalls a humorous lunch with Pat Godfrey, famed pest control man. The conversation veers from Pat’s daughter’s demand for a white four door Grand Prix to an amusing rat story and a joke about a frog in a pantry.
The Wellington area gains wide notice from two Associated Press wheat photos. One shows harvesting in action, the other trucks queued for unloading, with reports of copies reaching Chicago New York and Guam. Also noted are a 14 year old burned driving through a field blaze, a veteran auto body repair course for veterans, and a bank vault burglar alarm anecdote.
