Seems Like Yesterday
50 YEARS AGO (1959)
Five officers of Everett Trust and Savings Bank had behind them nearly two centuries of experiences. The five, with a total of 183 years, were E.P. McLean, 31 years; C.W. Johnson, 43; Fred A. Nelson, 31; E.G. Startup, 37, and C.H. Ruthford, 41.
Four former Marysville High School football players were now performing key roles for Everett Junior College. The Trojans would see action Saturday against Columbia Basin at Memorial Stadium. The four were end Roland Chambers, tackle Bob Olson, halfback Con Metcalf and tackle Rich Broeker.
25 YEARS AGO (1984)
Jean Colley was reappointed to the Everett Community College board of trustees, it was announced by the office of Gov. John Spellman. She had been on the board since July 1981.
Penny by penny, with the help of more people than he could remember, Jim Holmes was building a park for the kids of Granite Falls. A retired landscape architect and roofer, his project now was financing improvements to the town park adjacent to Town Hall. Holmes was donating money from his recycling efforts to fix up the park.
