A balloon sent by 7-year-old Nathan Brundage, son of Richard and Susan, Rt. 9, Warsaw, landed in Spencerville, Ohio, a small town about 80 miles east of Warsaw. The balloon was one of several launched by members of Walnut Creek United Methodist Church of Warsaw.
Steve Womack and Steve Steward, both whom attended Warsaw Freshman High School in 1967, made a pact after reading "After 20 Years," in English class. Womack made the 950-mile trip from Boston, expecting to meet Stewart, but Stewart, who lives in Fort Wayne, canceled because of a family health problem.
Proof that the rides at the county fair are providing fun and laughter was offered Saturday by June Breneman, 22, who is employed at the Winona Hotel. June laughed just a little too much while enjoying one of the rides, and as a result her jaw locked and she was unable to close her mouth. City officers took her to the Murphy Medical Center, where doctors put the jaw back in place.
