With tall television antennas sprouting from gradually every home in the city,
Homer Swaby in the past few years has found himself in the midst of this latest
electronic development which has made radio repair a very small part of his
business. In April of 1938, he opened his shop devoted to radios. It was located
where Ford's Food Center is at this time, when he moved to 121 East Broadway. He
moved to Forrest City in 1928 from Tilton, Ark. His wife, Miss Disie E. Womack,
of Wynne, and they are members of the Caldwell Baptist Church. Presently we only
get two stations from Memphis, but that will change in the future.
