Congratulations to the Sapario Brothers who are expanding their business. After many years, these brothers have been very kind to the minorities of the southwest side. Many of whom have attended public schools 6,12, and Manual High School. We can say it is wonderful to be able to expand in these days of bouncing economy. Their longest services replaces the only drugstore in the same location over 50 years. Although we hated to see the drugstore which once was destroyed by fire go, we are sure no finer men can be saluted than those mentioned above. • • • Anyone interested in dance lessons and are within the ages of five to 14, contact Mrs. Dorothy Sattefield or Olga Robinson at 783-2301 after 5 p.m., Tuesday through Friday. A day camp at Bethel Park will be opened for a week. Children are urged to come and enjoy the crafts and goodies. Isforsi as of yoer oeeoeosBoef, s^sddiae or oiNNVorsory colobrofion Mom 924-5143

Miss Cobb, Trammell to be married Denise Rochelle Cobb and Wendell Eugene Trammell will be married Saturday, July 9< at 5:30 p.m. in Northwood Christian Church at 4550 W. Central Avenue. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Cobb are parents of the bride to be. She has attended Oakwood College in Huntsville, Alabama. The groom elect is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter L. Frammell. He has attended Butler University and Indiana University. Honor attendants will be Miss Deirdre R. Cobb and Mr. Walter H. Trammell. Henry Williams returns to Indy Henry Williams recently returned home to Indianapolis from Denver, Colorado, where he was attending the University of Colorado. He also served four years in the Air Force, receiving an outstanding award for his special training in management and also a special award for his social work in the Colorado community. He is now enrolled at IUPUI, majoring in sociology. A 1968 graduate of Crispus Attucks High School, Henry is the son of the Rev. and Mrs. Raymond Holloway, 4131 Deborah St.

Johnson Van Dyke Grigsby, the man who holds the record for being incarcerated longer than any other man in the world, was chosen Bachelor of the Year recently by the Soli taire Singles Club during a supper in Hyatt Regency Hotel’s Harrison Gourmet Room. Hosts for the evening were from the Effurus Modeling Corporation, Damon Roach, director. Other donations were supplied by: Cleverley-Lock-hart Cadillac, Inc. who supplied a 1977 white Cadillac for Grigsby’s convenience, Betty’s House of Flowers, House of Jayne Fashions, Ann’s Bootery, Top Hat Tuxedo, and Leon Tailoring Company. Althogh the escalators frightend him and the enormous structure of the Hyatt engulfed him, Grigsby seemingly enjoyed himself as he was the center of attention decked out in a beautiful yellow tuxedo, a

matching yellow buttoneer and shining new tan shoes. He was escorted by two pretty young ladies, Pam Forte and SherreU Dickson, both models from the Effurus Corporation. The love of life and a strong determination to live have brought him this far, and to him life is well worth living. A Solitaire tribute to Grigsby: We’re all familiar with the phrase “life begins at forty try this one...“life begins at 92.” This holds true in the case of the gentleman who spouts such phrases as “I’d like to live to be 125,” or I’U never marry. ’ A clue as to why his life was halted at 24 and picked up again at 92 lies in his expression “I don’t miss the place, but sometimes I miss the boys.” This man, who was locked away from societ at the young age of 24 years, somehow over the

years survived the mental anguish of knowing he might never see the outside world again, watched as all of his family died leaving only him, has been placed in the Guiness Book of World Records as tnfe only man alive to serve a life sentence and come out to begin his life at 92. The optimistic outlook this man has on life is more than worthy of the token trophy that we are presenting to him. If it were possible, we can only strive to make his remaining years as full of love and happiness as humanly possible. I’d like to present Johnson Van Dyke Grigsby, our “Bachelor of the Year.” By Michael Branaugh For information on membership to the Solitaire Club, please call 283-2292 from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. (Answering Service) or Miss Elaine McCoyClub Secretary, 241-9034.
