Publisher’s Notebook
Alicia George chimed in with an update about the ‘Step Up to Tee Up’ golf tournament scheduled Aug. 19 at The Links at Cobble Creek.

The tournament is being sponsored by the Cobble Creek Women’s Golf Association.
Alicia tells me how Flower Motor Co., is offering a hole-in-one prize — a new Subaru, on one hole; and on the other par-3 holes, how Montrose County Abstract Co. is offering vacation packages. All for just hitting a ball into a hole.
I see by the paper…..
Bill Hellman, Delta area auto whiz, is featured in the Aug. 7 edition of Time magazine. Toyota, as part of its ‘Moving Forward’ campaign, salutes Hellman Toyota for the 11th year. Hellman received the president’s award, reflecting dealership excellence.
Elementary school students in Delta receive personalized books about themselves — ‘I Like Me.’ The book program reinforces self-esteem and respect for classroom peers. More than 200 were distributed last year, by Hellman. Hence, the national recognition.
Pictured in Time magazine are: Kendra Hillman, Bill Hellman, Jr., K.C. Carlson, Jim Farmer, Stacey Campbell, Larry Bellmire, R. Matt Hellman.

But what’s interesting is that Holmes, who was christened John when he was born, has legally changed his name to J.B. because of all the references to the former porn star with the same name.
What’s also noteworthy is that Gleason, 63, has a career batting average of a perfect 1.000 while with the Dodgers. He came to bat once, and hit a double.
