I have a Clay Center history quiz for those that were born by 1960. See how good your memories are. 1) The Broom Factory was located at the NE corner of 5th & Pomeroy. What was located at both sides of the entrance (I used to ride them)? 2) Where was the Coca Cola Bottling factory located? 3) Where was the Studebaker car dealership located? 4) Everyone remembers the Gilmore-Tatge factory just South of Dexter Park. What commercial establishment was there before Gilmore-Tatge? (you had to hold your nose while touring) 5) Where was Boogaards grocery store initially located? (hint, it was not where Meiers is now) 6) Where was the Kaiser/Fraser car dealership located? (Tough one.They stopped making these cars around 1950). 7) Where was the Bell Telephone Operator switchboard facility located? (Calls were placed by talking to a human). 8) Do you remember the Ice Plant and where it was located? (Before electric refrigerators, people used ice boxes and large blocks of ice for cooling perishables). 9) Sears Roebuck had a large department store, where was it located? 10) Easy one - where was Teen Town located? 11) Where was Champagne Auto Parts located?
