A cousin sent me some newspaper clippings from WAY BACK WHEN – I was probably in the 1st or 2nd grade when the incidents occurred.  I don’t even remember them, but a cousin (who is just a year older) does….as his dad was my dad’s business partner in a livestock auction in Fort Dodge, Iowa.  You will have to click on the articles to read them in their full format.  Looks like fun times were had by all!

My dad has his back to the camera and is the one in hte middle (with hair)…my uncle Robert, Dad’s brother, also has is back to the camera and is the bald one on the right of Dad.
