My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.

Sycamore Down to Two Newspapers Because of Paper Shortage
From the December 19, 2018, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1943, 75 Years Ago.
"Effective this week Sycamore will have but one newspaper, published twice each week, under the general management of Frank Dean, who has been publishing one of the papers for several years.
"The new publication will be issued tomorrow and the policies and much other interesting information will be found within its columns. The city has supported two newspapers for many years but with the present acute shortage of paper, the consolidation was deemed advisable."]
Even Newspapers. --GreGen
