25 Years Ago
Mount Hood bungalow, Winona Lake, built in 1911, was the home of evangelist William “Billy” Sunday and his family. The original furnishings from about 1917 are massive and dark. Thick upholstery and carpets abound. There is decorative woodwork, colorful light fixtures, and a beautiful collection of crystal and crochet work. Mount Hood has been carefully preserved by the Winona Assembly, being willed by Ma Sunday in 1957. The home stands empty today.
50 Years Ago
Robert Boyles and Sharon Mauzy are two of the performers in Wagon Wheel’s last show of the season, “Take Me Along.” Boyles will return to Northwestern University as a junior this fall.

Representing Warsaw’s Junior Achievement at the national competition at Indiana University in Bloomington are Anne Jensen, Michaele Hodges, Jean Davis and Pat Heath. They had their own 60-minute radio program over WRSW AM-FM last winter.

The earliest Warsaw High School graduating class to be represented at the third annual alumni association banquet held at the Methodist Church was the Class of 1887 represented by Eulalia Everhard, 521 E. Center St., a former teacher in the Warsaw city schools. All graduating classes back to the year 1920 were present, with a majority of the Class of 1900 also attending.
William Braddock, vice-president, acted as master of ceremonies. Harry Haldane, president, conducted a short business meeting. George Nye, teacher and graduate of the Class of 1907, gave a talk on the history of Warsaw High School, evolving from a small eight-room, ill-equipped structure on the corner of Detroit and Market streets to the new school under construction. Mrs. Ralph Lucier, Warsaw, entertained with several violin selections. Warsaw Record Shop furnished the dinner music.
