Just like Dad: Professional golfer John Daly, leaning on his golf club, and his three-year-old son, “Little” John, were featured guests Monday at the Forrest City Grocery Charity Golf Tournament, held at the Forrest City Country Club. Daly, his son, and former NFL quarterback Joe Theismann, delighted the crowd with a hitting clinic. It was Daly’s son, however, who was the center of attention, hitting the golf ball using his dad’s clubs, standing barefoot and sucking on a pacifier. The tournament featured 30 four-man teams and raised approximately $479,000 to benefit the Forrest City Education Foundation as well as several local charities, according to Special Event Coordinator Danny Tate.

Hooking up equipment: Kim Barker, with Control Heating and Cooling of Jonesboro, works on hooking up one of the new heating, ventilation and air conditioning units in a first-floor hallway at Forrest City High School. It was reported to the school board Monday that all replacement units have been delivered and all the classroom units have been installed and are working properly. The HVAC installation was supposed to have been completed by the beginning of the school year that just ended, but it has been plagued with problems. The school district and the manufacturer, McQuay International, reached an agreement in March to replace faulty units. Photo by David Nichol.
