  • LOOKING BACK in HISTORY Happenings in the Cookeville Area As Recorded in the Pages of the Herald Citizen Newspaper, Cookeville, TN
    WAY BACK WHEN: LOOKING BACK IN HISTORY Happenings in the Cookeville area as recorded in the pages of the Herald Citizen Newspaper, Cookeville, TN. By Bob McMillian 1960’s (Compiled by Audrey J. Lambert) http://www.ajlambert.com 1960 (January 11, 1960) The town's two newspapers have changed hands. The Citizen has been sold to Coleman Harwell, former editor and vice•president of the Nashville Tennessean. The Putnam County Herald has also been sold to Harwell by its former publisher, William Matthew. Joining Harwell as a partner in the venture is John Mott, the editor of The Citizen. (January 13, 1960) Tennessee Tech professor D. W. Mattson says they don’t make them like they used to. He’s referring to roads, specifically the road he helped rebuild through Cookeville’s Westside business district in 1930 when he was resident engineer with the State Highway department. It’s still in good shape today. The road’s foundation was a thick sheet of concrete. Mattson, now chairman of TTU’s engineering department, says most of today’s roadbeds begin with layer of crushed stone. It just doesn’t hold up as well. Broad Street through Westside has been heavily traveled for the past 30 years and shows no signs of wear, he says. The one exception today is the new interstate highways like the one that’s due to be built past Cookeville in a year or so. He says the new superhighways are using concrete roadbeds and should last for at least 50 years. (January 13, 1960) The town’s two newspapers have changed hands.
