Daily News for Sunday, November 1, 2015
A bit of history of South Central Printing, Inc. Few are aware of an important role this long established Columbia business had in the production of Kentucky Derbies and Breeders Cup events of the past three and one-half decades. But American Pharaoh's win Saturday triggered memories for South Central Printing CEO Ralph Waggener about the connection between the great racing events and a printing plant in Columbia. By Ralph Waggener Founder and CEO of South Central Printing While watching the Breeders Cup Saturday it made me remember that we had printed the bloodlines book for The Breeders Cup races sometime in the past. When talking to my daughter Lee Grider, I asked her if she remembered. Back in my office where I keep some of the many books we have printed I found a copy of the 1987 issue of the bloodlines book we had printed that year.

100 years ago: Fairgrounds sold for $2,000 Early November in 1915: Elections and other sports, a huge truck body, and the sale of the Fair Grounds By Jim Politics, Kentucky's only sanctioned blood sport, dominated the front page of the November 3, 1915 News, published on Wednesday that week instead of Tuesday in order to present readers with results of the election held on November 2nd. Probably to no one's surprise, the Republican candidates swept the county. Stated the staunchly Democratic paper, "The result is gracefully accepted by the Democrats, and everybody will move along in the even tenor of their way." The outcomes of the statewide races were more mixed, but at press time, both sides claimed a 10,000 vote victory in the gubernatorial contest. However, with the smoke cleared and the last hanging chad examined a few days later, Democrat Augustus O. Stanley held the lead. Within the corporate limits of Columbia, Messrs. T.E. Jeffries, G.M. Stevenson, G.R. Reed, A.O. Taylor, and Sam Lewis drew the highest vote counts for seats on the city council, and O.P. Willis won the race for town marshal "by a large majority."

Tom Chaney: Understanding the Enemy Of Writers And Their Books: Understanding the Enemy. Tom says To love our enemies may be too much to ask, but Berenson helps us to understand them, and in the process tells a cracking good tale in The Faithful Spy. This column first appeared 19 December 2010. The next earlier Tom Chaney column: Christmas Again By Tom Chaney Understanding the Enemy When I was a small boy I remember reprimands for whispering in church. When I shifted to note-passing I got caught at that. I am caught less often in church these days, but since I started writing this column I tend to get books either passed to me during the sermon or suggested for reading. I have discovered that it is not polite to begin reading the book before the benediction even if it was tendered as a sort of adult pacifier.
