LOST & FOUNDRY
What goes 'round comes round.
DARN! I was hoping for somebody from Juneau or Amarillo or some other outpost of the far-flung Morris chain. Instead, the Morrises have
gone outside their chain to hire one of the best newspaper guys in Georgia to be the new executive editor of the Banner-Herald/Daily News.
Cecil Bentley is the highly respected Executive Editor of the Macon Teloqraph, but when I knew him he was a college student in love with
Athens and the music scene and a dancing fooL Look for the BH/DN to get better
fast, and that means Flagpole will have to get better, too. Welcome back, Cecil!
DEAL! Okay, somebody: this one-of-a-kind historic house is waiting for you to
structure a deal. You can get the house free, delivered from Stone Mountain Park,
if you can find a lot for it and raise the money to put it back into shape. Yes, it's
the T.R.R. Cobb house, and it wants to come home. What a building for a home or
offices. Go for it Call Laura Straehla, executive director of the Athens-Clarke
Heritage Foundation at 353-1801 or go to the web site: negia.net/~achf.
TRAGEDY We received word late Monday morning that Matt "Six Pack" Stevenson
killed himself Sunday night Matt was well known and well liked and was a
familiar figure in tattooing-piercing circles in Athens and beyond. He was one of the
Awards Show. We join Matt's family and friends in sadness at his death. Condolences
Apt 1, Athens, GA 30605.
