Reflecting On The Life Of Mel Antonen With Mike Henriksen

In The Moment … February 4th, 2021 Show 985 Hour 2
Longtime sports writer Mel Antonen died on Saturday. He was a graduate of Hamlin High and Augustana College in South Dakota. He caught the reporting bug when his early stories about baseball in South Dakota were printed in local newspapers. He went on to work for 24 years at USA, writing about some of baseballs biggest games, players, and controversies. He was well known for his radio and television broadcasting work, but he said he always considered himself a newspaperman, fingers stained with ink and memories of hometown baseball fields. Sports broadcaster Mike Henriksen joins us to remember Mel Antonen.

Chuck Yeager, Lincoln County Boy | News, Sports, Jobs

FRED MILLER
Scratch an Adkins from around East Liverpool (and there are quite a few) and you’ll probably find at least a second-hand connection to Chuck Yeager, legendary pilot, World War II ace and first man to fly faster than sound.
Brigadier Gen. Charles E. “Chuck” Yeager, a favorite son of West Virginia and a native of Hamlin, the county seat of Lincoln County, died Dec. 7 at the age of 97.
My mother Lucille was an Adkins from Hamlin. She was born in 1918, so was four and a half years older than Yeager.
Her younger brother Louis Sweetland Adkins, however, the same age as Yeager and was in his graduating class at Hamlin High School. I never met Chuck Yeager, but I think he and my Uncle Lou were a lot alike: direct can-do men, born storytellers, with a sardonic sense of humor and always active, never still. Lou’s siblings called him Sweetland, and I used that name for him when I wrote about him in this column back in the ’90s. Retired, long divorced and restless, Uncle Lou came to live in our garage apartment and help out our mother, Ol’ Food, after my dad died in ’92. I remember Lou being mad at Yeager because he wouldn’t come to their high school class reunions.
