1966 - Optimism for Re-Opening Clothing Factory in Onaway and Grace Pregitzer Heads to New York City From Presque Isle County Advance and Onaway Outlook April 28, 2016

  
CAPTION: Optimism rose again in Onaway that a replacement had been found to re-open and operate a clothing factory 
in the old Northern Garment plant building.  Negotiations that had been proceeding for several weeks with a Detroit firm 
resulted in the statement: "We now expect to be in operation in your city by the middle of May."  The firm plans to have
about 50 persons working and increasing personnel to a total of 100 within a year.  In other Onaway News, Mrs. Grace
Pregitzer and other Mothers of the Year from 49 other states were going to assemble in New York City to be feted for
three days.  The ladies were then to travel to Washington D.C. for more festivities.
