Paul Corbin was George Strait 40 years to soon About: Preservation, Paul Corbin, and old, old Knifley school, White Oak To Judy Corbin, via CM Please pass along our best to Paul Corbin;s daughter. I would be happy to contribute to any effort re the old,old school in Knifley. Spent a good deal of my early life there. Paul was one of my favorite people; he was just back from WWII when I left Knifley and I remember well the "Pickin' and Grinnin'" sessions he and Leon Christie would hold in Leon's store. I once told someone that Paul was George Strait forty years too soon. Incidentially, my family, Bob, Doug and Judy, still live in Bowling Green.

Male High Cross Country star signs with CU Natasha Janes will join CU track, basketball teams Ciick on headline for story plus photo From Campbellsville University Sports Information Department CU Cross Country coach Scott Hortness has signed Male (Louisville) High graduate Natasha Janes to join the Lady Tiger harriers in the fall. She will also run track in the spring and join Ginger Colvin's Lady Tiger basketball team once the cross country season is complete. Janes, who was injured in a car accident during the 2008 high school cross country season, is a "great addition," according to Hortness. After a grueling rehab from the auto accident, Janes was able to rejoin the Male basketball team and in the spring her 4x800 relay team finished second in the Class AAA Kentucky State Track Meet with a time of 9:42.29. She also ran the 1,600-meter, posting a time of 5:59.75. During her high school career, Janes earned 14 varsity letters in her three sports and was voted Most Athletic Female of her graduating class. "She is a very determined individual who has overcome some setbacks," said Hortness. "Natasha will do very well in whatever she decides to do." Janes had perfect attendance for her 12 years of school so far, even though rehabilitation sometimes took 4-6 hours a day. - Richard RoBards 2009-07-19 10:42:40 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Sports

Rev. Joey N. Welsh. George Bernard Shaw ANOTHER ANGLE: the occasional musings of a Kentucky pastor SEASON AFTER SEASON. Reprinted from earlier CM post on July 23, 2006. By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh joey_n_welsh@hotmail.com The writer of Ecclesiastes begins chapter three with the familiar words, "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven." (KJV). I thought of those words for this week's column, because for longer than a century the plays of George Bernard Shaw have been coming to life on stage. And since the time that Shaw began writing his plays, there has hardly been a season of any year without someone somewhere putting on a Shaw play.

Preservation, Paul Corbin and old-old Knifley school, White Oak About: Is there any Adair Co organization preserving historic schools To ColumbiaMagazine.com My father, Paul Corbin, taught at the old/old (as vs. the now old, Knifley Grade Center circa 1961) school in Knifley. I know we have some photos of the old school from the 1950s. My sister, Brenda painted a picture of the school which hangs in their house. It later became a cherry furniture factory. My parents bought all their bedroom and living room furniture there. My father is still with us at 83 and lives here in Bowling Green. My father also taught at a school called "White Oak." I think this was a one room school, but I am not sure exactly where it was in Adair County. s/Judy Corbin 2009-07-19 09:03:26 | Comments | Printable version
