10 Years Ago
June 18 1989
Warsaw's Tony Elliott became the fourth different winged sprint feature winner in four races Saturday night at the Warsaw racetrack over a field of 33 cars. Glenn Bradley continued his winning streak by making it three late model feature wins in a row and Joe Leek won his first street stock feature ever.
25 Years Ago
June 18 1974
Nearly 200 people, including the mayor and other city officials, were on hand last night for a preview opening of the new Lucky Steer Restaurant at the intersection of the U.S. 30 bypass and CR 200N.
50 Years Ago
June 18 1949
Ed Severns, of down near Palestine, tells us he's been taking the Warsaw paper ever since he was married more than 25 years ago. An uncle started Ed and his wife off with a year's subscription for a wedding present and they have kept right on subscribing.
75 Years Ago
June 18 1924
A temperature of 84 degrees, felt because of the humidity, brought out all available electric fans in Warsaw today and caused many a bathing suit to be shaken loose from the moth balls. One year ago today the mercury stood at the same figure, 84, at 11 a.m. Hot weather fans were arguing whether it would reach 90 or take a drop this afternoon.
