Kenneth Nitz, grandson
of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Nitz and son of Alvin Nitz of Eau Claire, recently made
headline news in the Boise Tribune for his second successful parachute jump,
landing within three feet of his designated target. This is rather outstanding,
as Kenneth has been taking skydiving lessons for only about four months. He
finds it a very thrilled sport. He has made his home at Boise, Idaho for the
past two years, where he has been a technician for the Veterans Hospital at
Boise, but because of the illness of his wife, he will return to Chippewa soon,
as she is being transferred to the Veterans Hospital at Tomah.
Mr. and
Mrs. Carl Brandt returned home Sunday from a week’s trip through Canada with
their daughter and her family, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Kline and children of
Minneapolis.
The following people are helping Mrs. Art Brandt celebrate
her birthday at the Bart Brandt home Friday evening: Don Brandt, Eau Claire, Mr.
and Mrs. Clifford Manier, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Ulrech, Mr. and Mrs. Dick Brandt,
Mrs. Anna Paap, John Brandt and Otto Pearson.
Mrs. Chas. Nitz returned
home last Tuesday after being hospitalized at Victory Memorial hospital for
eight days.
