Having failed to find the photo in the newspaper the photo is identified by clues in it and those of the photo which follows it in accession. The two pictures appear to be of the interior of the newspaper office when it was on SE 1st St. A further assumption is that the lady pouring over a paper is Grace Skelley, the society editor in the 1950s. Looking at the typewriters the could fit into the error and can the other equipment and the room interior. Miss Skelley was in Waverly in this time frame as proved from another photo in which she was identified. Anyone who can prove a different scenario, please do.
