HERALD-CITIZEN STAFF REPORTS

Question: Who do we notify if we see an obviously lost dog? Also, if we are able to safely pick them up, where can we take them? Answer: Cookeville-Putnam Coun- ty Animal Shelter Director Jennifer Hutchinson-Tracy responded, “You may contact the animal shelter during shelter business hours (noon-6 p.m. every day except Wednesday and Sunday). We can then provide guid- ance depending on the circumstances. We may refer you to animal control or local law enforcement. We may be able to match the dog with our lost dog reports and facilitate reuniting the dog with its owner without the dog coming to the shelter. If bringing the dog to the shelter is the best option, we can advise you on our intake policies and procedures prior to arrival at the shelter. “If the dog is found when the animal shelter is closed, and you are not able to confi ne it until the shelter reopens, contact your local law enforcement agency. If you are able to hold on to the dog, you can post or search for a lost dog report on a variety of websites and social media. The animal shelter refers people to and frequently checks posts on “Rescue 931 Cookeville” on Facebook. Many animals are reunited with their owners through this Face- book page. You may also be able to locate the owner simply by checking STEM Night at Jere Whitson with residents in the area where the Ana Sebastian Francisco participates in Jere Whitson Elementary School’s first STEM night with the dog was found or posting fl yers.” theme, Mission to Space, during which students and their families participated in science, technology, Question: Just got my bill from engineering and math activities.

SEE KNOW, PAGE 2 Tech’s class of 1969 joins Golden Grad Society TTU — The 1960s were a unique time in Tennessee Tech’s histo- ry. The university experienced growth unlike anything it had experienced before. At the beginning of the decade, 2,800 students were enrolled at Tech, and by 1969, enrollment had nearly doubled. In those 10 years, 22 buildings were constructed, and most of them were dormitories. More than 50 members of the class of 1969 recently returned to campus to participate in homecom- ing activities, celebrate their 50th reunion and be inducted into the Tennessee Tech’s Golden Grad Class of 1969 donated $69,000 to Tech’s new Eagle Assistance Grant, a hardship SEE GOLDEN, PAGE 2 grant that provides students with emergency need-based funds that can be applied toward any financial hardship. herald-citizen.com INDEX 1 section | 12 pages OBITUARIES Page 5 DEAR ABBY 6 COMICS 11 Randall Thrasher, Livingston James Harris, Monterey Liam Gunnels, Cookeville Betty Neely, Cookeville CALENDAR 3 CROSSWORD 11 Cliff ord Hensley, Cookeville Linda Clark, Monterey Joel McCarter, Rickman Patsy Maxwell, Cookeville CLASSIFIED 9 OPINION 4 Jethro Whittaker, Monterey Michael Ledbetter, Livingston 2 HERALD-CITIZEN FROM PAGE 1 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 2019 herald-citizen.com 0LOTTERY0 Monday THP prepares for holiday travel on I-40 Cash 3 Evening 4-0-0, Lucky Sum: 4 THP — Commissioner Jeff est travel days of the weekend: see, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Cash 3 Midday 0BY THE NUMBERS0 8-2-8, Lucky Sum: 18 Long of the Tennessee Depart- Wednesday, Nov. 27 from 10 Texas, New Mexico, Arizona Cash 3 Morning ment of Safety and Homeland a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sunday, and California.
