"Marking Wilbert 'Wibb' Orr's 30 years of safe school bus driving, a celebration was held at Parkview Transit recently. In photo above, Mr. Orr (wearing the hat) stands in front of his first school bus in 1947. Sharp-eyed readers will also spot Jim Thompson, formerly with the Bradford police department. At right, Wib tries out a reclining chair which was given to him by fellow drivers, as his wife, Jean, and Ted and Doug Brown of Parkview Transit look on. Wibb also received an engraved gold watch from Ted and Doug."
"David and Georgie Clark, both 25, are travelling around North America in their double decker bus. They bought the bus for $700, converted it for just under $2,000 and shipped it to Canada for $2,500. Hopefully, their next stop will be Australia, according to Mr. Clark."
"An English double decker bus parked beside the Bradford Municipal building last Monday en route to Niagara Falls, is 54 years old, weighs 10 1/2 tons, is 27' long, 13'4" high and 8' wide. It was bought by Dave and Georgie Clark of Essex, England, and has travelled 18,000 miles since last October."

Left to right are Mickey Watson, Anson McQuarrie, Joanne Corner, and Bill Akers. In back is teacher Mike Oliver who ran the assembly held for the men."
