RETOLD OLD NEWS

Mount Ayr Record-News
Mount Ayr, Ringgold County, Iowa
Thursday, June 16, 1988

Lisa Wilson, Mount Ayr Record-News

The annual croquet tournament has grown to a summer celebration in its fourth appearance this year. As well as the croquet tournament and dance, this year the event will feature a 20-person hot tub, sand lot volleyball and "the world's largest pool table."

Tuesday, June 76, had a near-record number of traffic tickets that went through Ringgold County Judicial Magistrate's court. The 31 tickets processed compare to that many that might be issued in a month, Magistrate Bob ROE said.

Heather CLARK, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jim CLARK of Diagonal, designed the winning poster in the 1988 Mothers Against Drunk Driving -- National Car Rental poster/essay contest. CLARK received a check for $1,000, plaque and a gold ribbon for her entry at an awards ceremony in Washington, D.C. The poster featured the silhouette of a baby reaching for a butterfly along with the words, "A Dream is a Fragile Thing. Don't Drink and Drive."

Four letter winners are providing leadership for the Mount Ayr Community Raiderettes during their summer softball season. Letter winners include senior Kim McGINNIS, sophomore Dawn HUFF, sophomore Monica GREGG and senior Kelley DAVENPORT.
