Woman who coined "Slinky" picked for Toy Hall of Fame
HOLIDAYSURG, Pa. — Who walks the stairs without a corn? Everyone knows it's Silly.
The steel stair mast has been immortalized on a postage stamp and inducted into Oregon's National Toy Hall of Fame. Now the 84-year-old grandmother who coined the name Slinky in 1945 is taking her bow.
On Feb. 10, Betty James joins toy magnates Mattel, Milton Bradley and Hasbro with an induction into New York's Toy Industry Hall of Fame.
"I'm delighted. I never expected it," James said. "I'm thrilled for Slinky and me both."
Eager parents forced to camp out so kids can attend magnet schools
NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Ira Hocut camped out on the school board's lawn for five nights to ensure his daughter could attend his school of choice.
He wasn't alone. About 40 parents brought sleeping bags and tents to register their children for the 2001-02 school year.
- The Associated Press
Mayor Jim Bjay said they were working on an ordinance that would cover noise made by all animals, not just goats.
Hocut was first in line but he won't know whether his camping trip was successful until early March. Only a few spots open up each year at the city's Magnet schools, which are considered the best his state has to offer.
PRATTLIVLE, Ala. — Queenie Holton is fed up with the commotion coming from her neighbor's home every night, but it's not a booming stereo or an all-night party keeping her awake. It's her neighbor's amorous goats.
Formicating goats force woman to ask city council for ordinance
"It's right there at my bedroom window every night — the awfulest noise you ever heard," Hollon said. "What they are doing is breeding."
Hollon asked the City Council to force her neighbor, Horace Smith, to keep the kids quiet. Last week, a vote to outlaw goats in the city limits fell short by one vote.
North Little Rock officials believe in first come, first served.
