Cecilia Dennis was Miss Indiana and ended up being a finalist in the USA pageant. Something in the Milan water? Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile app Milan Sanitorium Funny you say that- there used to be a mineral water produced in Milan, Miwogco. It smelled and tasted awful (from family members- was gone by the time I was born). Milan had a sanitorium (basically a spa, founded on the "mineral springs"), which was really beautiful (my great aunt Jeanie Stute was born in that building). This and the Kohlmeier furniture factory were the two biggest buildings in Milan. My great grandpa Clifford Winters had a grocery store in Milan, and at one point, worked with James Cash Penney, better known as JC Penney. Makes me want to go back and visit (was just there for a funeral, but that's not a visit!). Sorry for hijacking! Love history!! johnsoniu, ccgeneral, GloryDays and 1 other 4 Quote
Whoozhers Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Very interesting. Never heard of it before. Before my time too. Although, it’s getting to be not much before my time anymore. [emoji15]Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile app mamasa 1 Quote

Uspshoosier Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Center Grove up 11 at half. Probably should be 20. Martinsville has nobody that can guard TJD. Center Grove looked lost against the 2-2-1 press dropping back into the 1-3-1 zone. Martinsville coach was my old freshman coach at Terre Haute South. Ran the same thing back in 93.

I'm sure its been asked on this board, but how does Jalen compare to the two oldest? He may be a player to watch. Quote
