Birthdays Many happy returns of the day to Audrey Seliga on Nov. 4 and Terry Connerty who will be one year old on Nov. 6. Our little old town was really alive with excitement last Sunday when thousands of people thronged here to witness the "Chuck Hiller Day" celebration. The crowd started gathering here long before the parade was scheduled to begin. I imagine their idea was to find a suitable parking space as later they were quite hard to find. The town hero, Chuck, his lovely wife, Pam, and their daughter, Stephanie, led the parade and just about wore out their arms from waving to all the sightseers. His ever-so proud parents, George and Olivia, followed them in the next car. The old timers in baseball's past years from this* area also took part in the parade. Various marching bands, drill teams, floats, Girl Scouts, Brownies, Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, little leaguers, etc., also participated in adding to the festivities. The parade disbanded at the community club's memorial park. Here the crowd really got to come in personal contact with Chuck and his family. Refreshments were served to all those who were on hand to extend their best wishes to Chuck. I can't imagine what it would take to surpass this celebration. It is doubtful if there will ever be so many people in our town again as there was last Sunday. Chuck, his wife, daughter and family can feel justly proud that they were the reason for such homage as was shown during this most eventful day of October 28. 1962. ers, who were the center of attraction of their family on Oct. 23.
