YESTERDAY MORNING IN DOWNTOWN MAQUOKETA, A 75 YEAR
OLD MAN WAS CROSSING MAIN STREET AND WAS HIT BY A PICK-UP
DRIVIN BY A 15 YEAR OLD. THE PEDESTRIAN WAS AIR-LIFTED
TO IOWA CITY AND DIED AROUND 5:30 YESTERDAY AFTERNOON.
TO GET THE STORY, GO TO KMAQ HOME PAGE AT 5:05 P.M OR AT
7:45 A.M. AND TURN-ON THE RADIO ON THE BOTTOM OF PAGE.
LOIS FISHER HERE AT KMAQ CAN MAKE SURE YOU
GET A SIGN. CALL HER HERE AT 1-800-747-0057
A 1944 AD, AND THE PASTIME HAD BUSINESS PLACES SPONSOR IT IN PAPER.
NOTICE, AN OPEN-ALL-NIGHT MAID RITE IN MAQUOKETA.
AT 117 EAST PLATT WAS MAQUOKETA'S ONLY BOWLING LANES AND
THEY WERE UPSTAIRS....I THINK THERE WERE SIX.
BANK NIGHT WAS VERY POPULAR. YOU
HAD TO BE PRESENT TO WIN AND IF YOU
COULD NOT GET INTO THEATRE, YOU
STOOD OUTSIDE TO LISTEN FOR THE WINNING
NAME. IF THAT PERSON WAS NOT PRESENT,
THE JACKPOT WENT UP.
$350 WAS A LOT OF MONEY IN 1944
