Mount Ayr Record-News
Mount Ayr, Ringgold County, Iowa
Thursday, June 27, 1991

Mount Ayr softball coach Mark Larsen achieved his 500th career victory last Tuesday night as his Raiderettes downed East Union, 10-0.

The railroad depot, located on North Taylor Street, was built around the turn of the century [1916]. Several people interested in seeing this bit of history preserved for the people of Ringgold County have begun a project to purchase and restore the depot. Several possibilities exist for uses of the building once it is restored. A couple of suggestions that have been mentioned are a museum or a meeting place for some organizations.

A Diagonal man will be among ten Iowa farmers visiting Hungary in the coming weeks. John Priest will share his expertise and experience in free-market agriculture as part of the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation project.

Born, a daughter, Erin Rachel, to Betsy and Marck Budach.
