JOHNNY KRUGER AMONG GUESTS
At WEDDING OF GRACE AND PRINCE

An ottawa countian was at
Monaco for one of the years big
gest events, the Grace Kelly we'd
ding.
He was Johnny Kruger, former
Ottawa County News staff member,
and son of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert
Kruger of Oak Harbor For the
past two years, Johnny has been
cartoonist and reporter for the
Rome Daily American, in Rome.
Cards to his parents gave vivid
personal picture of the wedding
festivities, and he is sending home
an array of stamps and souvenirs.
He drove to Monaco with DR.. Jerry
Horn, a friend from Notre Dame
college days. Son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Urban Horn of Fremont, DR.. Horn
was physician on the Constitution
which took the wedding party over
seas.
Johnny's chance to attend the
wedding came through an unusual
circumstance. He was acting as a
mass server in Rome with the
Bishops party the day the engage
ment was announced, and made a
casual remark that he certainly
would like to attend the wedding.
Later the bishops secretary noti-
fled him that accommodations had
been arranged for him at Monaco,
and his paper supplied credentials.
His inside stories of the press corps
coverage of the famous wedding
are particularly interesting.

Praises For Fine

Letters of praise for the recent
district C C l.. Conference here
at which the six local clubs enter
tanned 325 members from the g.
county Northern District continue
to pour in.
''The town certainly was back of
you in making everyone feel at

Mrs. Eugene l.. Gillig, Tiffin,
district president, wrote this most
expressive letter to Mrs. Frank
Manley, who was conference chair
man:
Dear Martha:
This day cannot be brought to a
close until l again thank you and
your co-workers for the most per-
feet Spring Conference l have ever
had the privilege to attend.
First of all you could never have
picked more perfect place if you
had looked for years. The Church
Sanctuary was so beautiful that it
pronounced a benediction on us all.
The utter beauty on the upturn-
ed faces of the mothers present
could never be placed on a canvas.
The picture was certainly a price
less pearl. One / shall remember
always.
Again my deepest, humble
thanks to you and your co-workers.
Sincerely,
Miriam

Salute of The Week

SotOtC VI ttbS
We'd like to begin a new fea-
ture in the column today
weekly salute TO some local club,
organization, or maybe an indivi-
dual, for some special reason. So
here's the first Salute Of The
Week:
To: Port Clinton Junior Wo-
mems Club.
Because: The members have
voted to take on the response
bility of furnishing the ehildren's
ward in the new hospital wing,
and because we know from past
experience that whatever this
club undertakes, ii does good
Job. More power TO 'em!
oink! (Jr.)
Spring of the year is always a
time on the farm, with
all the baby animals. One of the
most appealing sights in this area
must be at Howard and Leora Fill
linger's place. They have more
than so baby pigs, with more due
for arrival soon. Nine baby pigs
had to be nursed via baby bottle
and nipple method = and if you
think that isn't day-and-night job,
you ought to try it some time!
Some similar animal feeding is
going on right here in town. Only
it is two baby goats, Frisky and
Orphan Annie, that are getting the
baby bottle treatment at the Earl
Wiseman home on West Third St.
With David, Nancy and Tommy
(plus interested friendsD all eager
to help, the job isn't so bad.
