From Presque Isle County Advance and Onaway Outlook September 22, 2016 |
CAPTION: Prospective bidders were to meet with Presque Isle County supervisor Roy Dueltgen and Lansing engineer
Darrel Browney at the Onaway Airport to look over an improvement project that was calling for the clear, grading
and turfing of 1,000 feet of northwest extension to the NW-SE landing strip. It was planned to start in
October 1966. Bids were advertised and were to be received in Lansing on Sept. 29. In other Onaway News, Miss
Jean Reynolds had a busy and frustrating week. Her Labrador puppy was cornered by a skunk in a pile of blocks
and badly bitten. Jean and her mother killed the skunk with a mop, according to a front-page story in the
Sept. 22, 1996 edition. It was later learned that the skunk had rabies, so at the advice of a Petoskey veterinarian,
the puppy was put down.
