Look Back ... to a bump in the road toward an Auburn dog-training center, 1999
April 28, 1949, in The Star: Plans were being finalized today for the formal dedication tomorrow of Jacksonville College’s new International House, one of the few buildings in the country devoted entirely to foreign students. The dedication service will be held at Bibb Graves Hall. Addresses will be made by Drew Pearson, the famed national newspaper columnist and radio commentator, and Sidney H. Scheuer, president of Profile Mills of Jacksonville. After his arrival tomorrow, Mr. Pearson will be brought to Anniston where he will write his daily column in the editorial offices of The Star. Also this date: Informed at a news conference that the Green triplets born two days ago at Anniston Memorial Hospital were given Truman family names, President Truman told a New York Times reporter that he “appreciated the honor very much.”
