This Day in History: 1968-07-10

Joan Forrester daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Forrester of Youngs Road in Fardale received a cash award in a joke contest run by radio disc jockey Scott Money. Since she had won an award for academic excellence at her recent graduation from the Immaculate Conception School and a curved bar at a recent Girl Scout Court of Awards Ceremony, this was the third award she had received in two months. The winning joke defined evolution as “the theory that makes a zoo money wonder ‘am I my keeper’s brother?'” (Bristow)
