C. J. Uible July 27, 1939

Posted by Picasa

C. J. Uible is the man in the picture on the right.

Since the picture is too small to read the fine print underneath. I have typed the words below:

"I congratulate you on the excellent program you put on. It was the best of all the salute programs we have broadcast," wrote L. B. Wilson, president of WCKY, in a letter to this newspaper regarding the Leesburg-New Vienna program, broadcast over WCKY, last Thursday night.

Henry Pausch and Dr. L. E. Wilkin were interviewed on the Wilknit Hosiery Co., and on the enormous amount of mail sent out from Leesburg. John Dewey told something about the Leesburg plant of Dewey Bros., which is 50 years old this year.

C. J. Uible told of the new municipal building at New Vienna, and Mrs. Harry Curtis about the proposed library there. Mack Sauer acted as master of ceremonies.

Pictured above, left to right: Mack Sauer, Announcer Joe Graham, Henry Pausch, Dr. L. E. Wilkin, John Dewey, C. J. Uible, and Mrs. Harry Curtis.

Serena---
I would love to have a (hard) copy of this if possible!

Actually we can copy on Roberta's printer. We've come across quite a few Uibles - The Early Years newspaper clippings. Some of them though may do better at a Kinko's or someplace that has a real copier to get the whole page. It is interesting just to read the newspapers from that time period.

Is the Early Years a website?

No . . . at least not yet. It was just the photo title I thought of as I was entering the photos - like in biographies
