Quite the news day, really.
The Herald started off with the harrowing news of trains marooned in the Southwest, due to ongoing labor problems.
We're reminded by the page below that there was once an elected position of "County Surveyor". This has obviously gone by the wayside, which raises the question of what other elective offices are really obsolete as elective offices today.
Rules were changing for football.
And airplane rides were for the offering.
I'd forgotten there was once a town called "Teapot".
The Herald wanted to keep the Union Pacific brand off of the range.
Recently, of course, the state had an opportunity to buy the checkerboard from the UP's successor in interest and blew it.
A Colorado newspaper was happy with something Governor Carey had done, but what it was, I really don't know.
A restaurant was holding a contest for a name.
Charles Winter was running for office. His son, who lived to nearly be 100, worked in my office building nearly up to that very age.
The train situation, we'd note, wasn't only in the Herald.
