Seems Like Yesterday
50 years ago (1958)
Top ticket sellers for the Boy Scout Circus this spring were Robert Folgedalen, Gerald Fewkes, David Mundell and Gordon Peterson. As an award for their hard work, the boys were taken to Playland. Al Watkins was the staging director of the upcoming exposition.
25 years ago (1983)
After a decade of federal law enforcement work in Snohomish and Island counties, two FBI agents were leaving Everett because their expertise was needed in the West Coast's two largest cities. Bill Meslon, senior agent in the Everett office, was assigned to the Los Angeles office. His partner Gordon Gibler was being transferred to San Francisco.
This was Greek weekend in Everett, with some 400 delegates of the Greek lodge, American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association, holding their three-day convention. A Greek Night with Greek food and dancing was planned at the Everett Elks. There was a banquet planned at the Everett Pacific Hotel.
