    Janae Oler, of Warsaw, was selected Kosciusko County Fair Queen Friday night. Shammonda Clark, also of Warsaw, was first runner-up and Miss Congeniality.


25 Years Ago

June 28 1981

    Kristina Obregon, 4, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Art Obregon, of Pierceton; and Jason Thomas, 6, son of Mr. and Mrs. Roger Thomas, of Pierceton, were all smiles after being crowned Mermaid Festival Cuties Queen and Cutie King at the North Webster school gym. A total of 92 youngsters were entered in the two classes.


50 Years Ago

June 28 1956

    Edward Hawk, of East Market Street, Our Town, reports that he will not rule, as king, alone in his own household next Sunday even though it is nationally celebrated as Father's Day. It seems that his young son, Randy, will come in for his share of glory, too, because his birthday falls on this special day, as it did 11 years ago, June 17, 1945, in Watseka. We understand that Randy was brought to Warsaw to take up residence here when he was all of 10 days old.


75 Years Ago

    A very complete piece of playground equipment has recently been donated to the city park by the auxiliary of the American Legion of Warsaw. It is a standard with swing, trapeze, horizontal bars and rings which the children are enjoying very much. It has been placed in the playground section east of the bath houses.
