The second annual Gene Farquer Memorial Golf for Cancer was a huge success raising over $3,500 for the Indiana Elks Cancer Research in honor of Dr. Theodore Logan, oncologist, Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center. This year’s sponsor, Alexandria Elks Lodge 478, provided an excellent venue and party after the golf. Some 100 golfers participated to help raise money for cancer research and treatments.
Several individuals, businesses and organizations donated gifts, merchandise certificates or money to make this event a special fundraiser. Thanks to all.
On behalf of the many victims and families who have been influenced by cancer, we recognize and appreciate this contribution. A donation like this to cancer research is helping to “Make A Difference” in the quest to find a cure.
The real winners are those living with the hope of a cure.

Letter: Blame the voters for our Congress
Why is insider trading legal for Congress and illegal for the rest of us? They make and enact laws for all of us, but then exempt members of Congress. Somehow this doesn’t seem to pass the smell test.

Viewpoint: Anderson a microcosm of America
Wherever I have found comments that I felt were outside the values I believe in or were plain misinformation I have spoken out. At times that has been done with a lack of eloquence.

Viewpoint: Problems in Anderson go back to President Carter
On Jan. 21, Frank Couch of Anderson stated that political conservatives “just don’t get it.” He sort of indicates Sears’ closing in Anderson is due to the new mayor being Republican.
