Frosty Schreiner's Hardware store was having an "Aluminum Sale." Taylor Graham was the champion horseshoe pitcher of Unadilla and was wearing a blue ribbon on his coat. "Earl McCormick is building a new barn 36' X 80' on his farm east of town. (Now home to Wilhelm Family Farms, it's still there and you can see it when you drive down Highway #2.
