Congratulations to William Bliek who made the Dean's List at St. Bonaventure University. The recent grad, a finance major, is the son of Mr. and Mrs. LaVerne Bliek.

One parent of a 12-year-old baseball player, sends thanks to all the coaches who have volunteered for the Marion Recreation Baseball teams. 'My son has been playing baseball since he was eight, I have never seen such great coaches. A lot of time, patience and devotion goes into coaching. A special thanks to Coach Mark Jackson. He gives 110% to his team and to the parents of the players. THANKS AGAIN TO ALL THE BASEBALL COACHES.'
