SUNDAY , FEB . 16 , 1975 “ It ’ s no secret that most people know I love auctioneering . I ’ ve sold everything from animal to real estate . There isn ’ t anything that can ’ t be sold by the auctioneering method . The smaller sale is the backbone of the Peddicord Auctioneering business and I don ’ t want anyone to feel their sale is too small . And yet I have the experience and ability to do the big sale as well ,” said Herb Peddicord . Performing over 4,500 sales since he became an auctioneer in 1952 , Peddicord will now focus solely on auctions after having sold his Chevy dealership and the realty part of his auction company . Although he will still deal in realty auctions . “ Public opinion is one of the best ways to sell and the auctioneering method is public opinion . I ’ m proud to be an auctioneer and the public has enabled me to be proud ,” said ‘ Mr . Auctioneer .’ MONDAY , FEB . 18 , 1985 Jay F . Shaw was inducted into the Specialty Advertising Hall of Fame .

Edwards , a teacher at CHS , was born in Kansas and grew up in Iowa where she would graduate from Iowa State University . Taking a trip to Germany in 1977- ’ 78 , she would develop a love for the culture and its people . Ruth teaches German at CHS , and both hosts for and organizes the Coshocton exchange program with Germany . “ My students go over to Germany , and now they can stay with some East German families . And they see how a family of four stays in a small room together . They realize what they have over here , and they welcome their German friends into their homes here ,” said Ruth . Ruth and her husband William are members of Grace United Methodist Church where they both sing with the choir and are also both members of the Coshocton Community Choir .
