Tom Moore digs up State Desk past

Tom Moore dug up a writeup with Fran Murphey photos about the 1974 State Desk wake, when State Desk and City Desk merged to form the Metropolitan "Superdesk." Fran's ever-ready camera photographed Ray Redmond, Pete Geiger, Jan Clark and John Olesky. Pat Englehart, Harry Liggett and Tim Smith were featured on a cake that Jan baked for John's birthday (Nov. 5).

It recalled a photo John used from time to time about the same wake, but in a different locale. The SD demise was toasted in a few places.
