With a gleam in his eye he said,\u201dThe exhibit is going to be good.\u201d No doubt, it will be good. Some of the exhibits will feature items supplied by local people. Yearbooks, sweaters, letterman jackets, photos and a football from Corbin High School\u2019s 1927 team will be among the memorabilia. Perhaps you have a treasure or two that you could provide to the display. If you do contact Maggy Kriebel, director of Corbin tourism, at 528-8860. West himself will be here on Friday, Dec. 1 as a featured speaker. His talk, which will begin at 6 p.m., no doubt will include stories about the material that is included in his book, \u201cThe Boys from Corbin.\u201d Recently West let me borrow his scrapbook that he made from the many events and meeting with people during the research he did in order to get material for the book. It is loaded with fascinating pictures, e-mails and letters. I\u2019m looking forward to his visit to Corbin. Most of the memorabilia that I have is audio. I started broadcasting Redhound games in 1961. The late Allen Disney wrote programs that I announced featuring teams from the 1930\u2019s, and 40\u2019s. They are on reel-to-reel tapes. I have the tapes, but I don\u2019t have any way to play them. I\u2019ve also saved the play-by-play from several of the games I broadcast, including the state football championship games. It is memorabilia I wish I could share."}
