SPOTLIGHTING THE YEAR…1967 * And So They Say: Ruth Phelps: “I’m trying to get into the Christmas spirit even if it is a little early.” Dode Morrissey: “There can’t nobody take my place.” Charlie Baxter: “I shot off a homemade rocket down in Wichita on Sunday. I never saw the rocket again, but I think it brought down three planes.” Vic Jacobs: “We have to find a way to keep Coach Bob Becker here even if we have to put him in jail during the week and let him out on the weekends.” * Work was expected to begin on the 400-foot TV tower on the hill at the north edge of town near the city dump.
