December 1, 1977 Around Adair with Ed Waggener The article below first appeared in the December 1, 1977 issue of the Daily Statesman. Topics included an appreciation of Nolen Roberts, an appreciation of the Lindsey Wilson College basketball team, inauguration plans, Christmas decorations, and a call for papers on the science of moustachery. --Pen By Ed Waggener To help his fellow man Up until six or seven years ago, Robert Gentry of Gentry's General Store at Goodin's Crossroads says folks who lived down Bryant's Creek Road used to risk life and conveyance when they ventured onto Highway 206 at the intersection beside his business. But that was before a good man, Nolen Roberts, took care of the situation with a mirror. You see, the road curves leftward above the intersection, and the families who used Bryant's Creek Road to come from Pyles Hollow or even Little Cake can't see up the road toward Pellyton. Roberts, who lives in the intersection and is well known to hundreds of Adair County school students - he drives a bus - erected a rectangular mirror some eight-to-ten feet off the ground. The mirror measures about three feet by two feet. Now, when a Bryant's Creek Road driver approaches the intersection, he needs only to check the mirror to see how traffic conditions are toward the north.

November 1934 -- Homecoming, the President's visit, and news from the county Eighty-five years ago -- November 1934 -- America continued to languish in what surely seemed a never-ending economic depression. "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" made its radio debut on the 22nd to instant acclaim, and in a wild shootout on the 27th, FBI agents took down Public Enemy # 1, notorious gangster Lester Joseph Gillis, better known to the public by his alias, George "Baby Face" Nelson. But meanwhile, back in The Shire... By JIM November 1934 hit midpoint and headed toward Thanksgiving and December, and Columbia prepared for the welcome onslaught of visitors to the Lindsey Wilson Homecoming, set for Friday the 23rd. Already, over one hundred alumni and other former matriculants had made reservations for the banquet on that evening, with another two hundred or more expected for the event. The more prominent graduates who already had confirmed attendance included Dr. W.A. Weldon of Glasgow, Class of 1912, and Elam Huddleston '06, then serving Kentucky State Treasurer. As prelude to the much-anticipated banquet, Rev. Frank Hulse, Class of 1930, was scheduled to give the devotional at 9:45 that morning, with L.C. Harrison '25 to follow with the welcome address. Lindsey's gridiron team, fresh off a victory the previous weekend against Taylor County High and holding a season record of 3-2, was ready to take on Lebanon's St. Augustine Academy at 2 p.m. sharp, admission to the game 25 cents. All in all, the day held promise of fun-filled activities, fond reminiscing, and catching up with old friends, and many homes in Columbia planned to host one or more out of town guests for the weekend. The Homecoming shared top billing on the front page with another gathering, this of a considerably larger magnitude.
