Warsaw Community Schools Business Manager Frank Sanders Jr. congratulated football coach Bill Goshert following last night’s win over Peru 40-20 for its 10th victory this season, its fourth undefeated team in the school’s history. Sanders was the coach when the Tigers had their last campaign in 1952, taking over from George Fisher.
Lawrence Castaldi, president of Warsaw Junior Achievement, presented a national JA plaque to C. Reuben Williams, general manager of The Times-Union and radio station WRSW, the company which sponsored WRSW-JA. Warsaw became the smallest town in the United States to ever win special recognition at the national level.

Milk was stolen Thursday morning from porches on Hickory and East Main streets, according to reports made to the Warsaw police.
Apparel of Warsaw men this season will rival the plummage of a tropical bird, but the general effect will be pleasant and not gaudy, local retailers said. Browns will be especially good, giving last year’s greens a run for their money. Wider hat brims, tie and collar bars, watch chains, cufflinks and other knicknacks will be massive. Gold jewelry will be more popular than ever. Fingertip length surcoats and jackets are to be wintertime duty this year. Socks, neckties and handkerchiefs reflect the trend toward more color. Even the pajamas are tailored to fit for sleeping comfort, and they fit well enough to work about the house without embarrassment.
