58.	Grandfather's New Year's Eve / Wichels, Ernest [778] [WICHELS-1963-778] We've reviewed the New Year's Eve celebrations of earlier generations of Vallejoans. A half century and more ago there was one program which was inevitable. This was the formal grand ball attended by all of the officials and leaders in the community, usually followed by a generous meal sometime around midnight. Detailed record - Similar records
59.	Christmas In Vallejo / Wichels, Ernest [777] [WICHELS-1963-777] Christmas is the same over the years--the family reunions, the joy of the children, and the turkey on the table--but the manner of reporting it has changed. We went back into the old copies of the Vallejo Chronicle 70 to 90 years ago, and bring you the life of the city in those holidays. Detailed record - Similar records
60.	Horseless Carriages / Wichels, Ernest [776] [WICHELS-1963-776] This past week we learned that another American-made automobile passes from the scene. Studebaker has been a by-word for over 60 years. But this has happened to automobiles in America just about 5,100 times in the past 65 years! We are indebted to Manager Charles Monahan of the local Calif. State AA Office for an informative pamphlet on American-made automobiles--from Abbott (1909) to Zust (1908).

61.	Old Time News Writing / Wichels, Ernest [775] [WICHELS-1963-775] Like women's fashions, automobile bodies and hair-dos, the style of reporting news also changes with the years. In our research the past few weeks, poring over the century-old editions of our Vallejo newspapers, we have gleaned some amusing stories. The most interesting aspect is that the city editor, in the olden days, always editorialized in his reporting. Today no city desk would dare to do so. Detailed record - Similar records
62.	Other Days Of Mourning / Wichels, Ernest [774] [WICHELS-1963-774] Vallejoans shared the grief of the world and of the nation following last week's tragedy. With heartfelt reverence, our citizens worshiped in their churches, closed shop, displayed the flag in mourning, and many unashamedly cried. Detailed record - Similar records
63.	Memories Of Holiday / Wichels, Ernest [773] [WICHELS-1963-773] Next Thursday is Thanksgiving Day. It's a holiday, with pay, for most people. Noteworthy, the religious aspect of the day has been growing in recent years. Up until World War II it shared this significance with football games throughout the country--in Vallejo, too, for the Apaches observed a home-and-home schedule with the Eureka High School [...] Detailed record - Similar records
64.	Orders For Mare Island / Wichels, Ernest [772] [WICHELS-1963-772] We oldsters often date ourselves by the fashions we wear, by the tunes we hum, or by the furniture we insist on keeping. Today we are going to date the Mare Island Naval Shipyard. Most everyone knows that our great naval plant is 109 years old but it is interesting to read the thousands of Commandants' Orders and Notices which serve as milestones of the past century.

65.	The Sperry Pioneers / Wichels, Ernest [770] [WICHELS-1963-770] The Sperry Division of General Mills in South Vallejo is undoubtedly Vallejo's oldest non-governmental enterprise, and is one of the larger private employers in Solano County (others, Yuba Manufacturing, Nut Tree, Gibson Publications). Today's story is a fascinating tale beginning with the gold rush, but Vallejo enters the picture in 1869. Detailed record - Similar records
66.	The Origin Of Names / Wichels, Ernest [769] [WICHELS-1963-769] Most of us take names for granted--we're speaking of geographical locations. Yet behind some of these names are interesting stories--oftentimes legends--which would fill pages of type. Today we'll mention a few in the local area. Detailed record - Similar records
67.	Wichels, Ernest Will Author T-H Historical Column / Wichels, Ernest [771] [WICHELS-1963-771] NOTE: This is the original notification of the beginning of the "Pages From the Past" history column in 1963. A sparkling column of personal reminiscences and historical lore of the North and Central Bay Areas, will begin in Sunday's Times-Herald. Detailed record - Similar records
