And Slim was there! If I remember correctly, Jack Tatem was the first to score 1,000+ points in 1969, can't remember the second, and Wilbert was the third one in 1972.

Your friend,

Slim

Was Fulton Teagle the other one? I'm a little foggy on that but I remember Fulton must have had rubber bands instead of tendons in his joints.

Your friend,
Slim

(Used car ad.. more than two dozen listed)

Let me tell you about used cars. Sometime around 1960 Winnie

Williams and Toby Hallett came to town and decoded they wanted to get into the automobile business. Somehow, they ended up talking to C.K. Duncan of Duncan Brothers fame.

Winnie and Toby were angling to buy the dealership outright but Mr. Duncan was hemming and hawing and just wasn't sure. One day the three of them took a ride out Dividing Creek Road to Mr. Duncan's farm where he had literally hundreds upon hundreds of used cars stockpiled, hoping for an automobile shortage so he could make lots of money. Finally, C.K. says, "Well I guess we probably won't have another war anytime soon, so I guess I might as well sell the whole thing." And that is how the Midway General Motors dealership came to be, and the rest is history.

Your friend,

Slim

(Slim- was reference above to C.K. or Lynwood? tk)

Now that you mention it, I do believe it was Lynwood that Toby and Winnie were negotiating with. Obviously, I was not there for the conversation, but this is how it was told to me by Winnie.

Slim- I wasn't aware that CK was involved in the dealership, but you would know more than me about it.
