Guffey Motors - These photos from the 1960s hang on the walls of the former Brad Guffey Chevrolet office in Gainesville. They show the company’s 1964 wrecker when it was new and the company’s salesmen standing in front of a 1972 Chevrolet in the showroom: from left, Wilbur Cowart, Brad Guffey, Joe McFarland and T. J. White. The company, now Guffey Motors, is owned by Brad’s son Bob and his wife, Deb.

Luna last Saturday morning a week ago, was taken to the Burge-Deaconess hospital at Springfield, arriving there last Friday, and the bullet which had embedded itself in the bones of the shoulder removed. Latest reports from Springfield are that he is improving.
