Photographers honored


The Beacon Journal “25-Year Club” welcomed inductees from the years 1957 and 1958 at a dinner April 7, 1983 at the Tangier Restaurant.

A group of photographers at the dinner included past members Lew Henderson (first from left) and Bill Hunter. New honorees were Ted Walls who started at the BJ on April 14, Ott Gangl on March 4 and Don Roese on May 21.

Others honored for service from 1957 were Eugene Bailey, Joseph A. Catalano, Eunice Collins, Michael Dimeff, Frank Felber, Donald Hess, Jay O’Dear, Dick Rose, Gerald Rowles, Sidney Sprague, Thomas White and David Wise.

Other honorees from 1958 were Dean Bidinger, Virgil Buerge, Robert Henretty, Gene McClellan, Dallas Nickel, Joseph Schllmm, Donald Wheeler, Lillian Clark, Tommie Cook, Helen Dietz, John Dougherty and David Franklin.

Sadly some of the above are now deceased. The photo and list of honorees is from the May-June 1983 issue of Tower Topics.
