Stinsons Make Trip to N. O. Via Bicycles

Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Stinson, of Jonesboro, returned Monday evening from a
280 mile bicycle vacation trip to New Orleans.

Leaving Jonesboro at 6:00 a.m. Wednesday they rode into Baton Rouge at 1:00
a.m. that night, a total of 192 miles.  After spending the remainder of the
night in a Baton Rouge hotel, they rode on to New Orleans Thursday, reaching
there by 7:00 p.m. 

While in New Orleans they visited in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Green,
who took them on a tour of the principle points of interest of the town,
including a 20 mile boat ride on the river to see the docks, etc.

Broth Mr. and Mrs. Stinson are former residents of Winn Parish, having been
raised in the Gansville Community, and graduated from the Dodson High School.
