Movin' On moves in to Iola Old Car Show
Those of you old enough to remember the 1970s may recall Sonny Pruett, Will Chandler and the show Movin'On. Shown on NBC between 1974 and 1976, the 60 minute drama followed the lives of two truckers Sonny Pruett, a crusty old veteran, and Will Chandler, a college educated newcomer, as they hauled freight and fought crime and worked their way across the highways of America. Pruett was played by veteran character actor Claude Akins and Frank Converse played Chandler. Forty five episodes were filmed. The pair also played the same characters in the show's 1973 pilot called "In Tandem", a made of television movie. The Pruett W-900, which appeared in the show during the 1974 season, is owned by Paul Sagehorn of Sparta, WI.

Thursday-Friday: Gilbert Brown Signs On
Former Green Bay Packer nosetackle and avid car collector Gilbert Brown will be on hand at the Iola Old Car Show Thursday and Friday, July 12-13. Brown, who is also part owner of the Milwaukee Mile promotional group, will be signing autographs Thursday across from the Tower and Friday at the Milwaukee Mile NASCAR simulator from 2-4 p.m. each day. Proceeds from the autograph signings will go to the Gilbert Brown Foundation. While playing for the Packers, Brown's famous "shoveling" motions after a big hit or sack garnered him the nickname "The Gravedigger." Brown is an active car collector himself and has over 25 vehicles in his collection. For more information on Brown go to www.gilbertbrown93.com.
