Edwin T. McHugh, Murdock Banker, Files for Unicam
Edwin T. McHugh, Murdock banker and attorney, filed today (Monday) for state senator, third legislative district at the courthouse in Plattsmouth, it was announced at noon.
Mr. McHugh, son of Eunice Towle McHugh, former Plattsmouth school teacher, and the late Jerry E. McHugh, one time resident of Plattsmouth and South Bend, is cashier and one of the organizers and incorporators of the Corn Growers State Bank at Murdock, where he is also actively engaged in the practice of law.
A graduate of the Murdock high school and the University of Nebraska College of Law, Mr. McHugh is married and the father of two children. He is a member of Plattsmouth Hugh Kearns Post of the American Legion.
McHugh served four and one-half years in the U. S. Navy during World War II. During this period, he rose in rank from Seaman Second Class to Lt. Commander. Twice he was decorated for valor, first at Biscay Bay, followed by action during the invasion at Omaha Beach. He saw duty in England, Africa, the Mediterranean, South America, and Gibraltar.
Mr. McHugh has made a wide acquaintance in Cass County during the past few years while successfully promoting the growth of the Corn Growers State Bank, one of the first new charters to be granted in Nebraska during the last decade. His success as a bank executive and lawyer bestows upon him many qualifications that should be an asset to the residents of Sarpy and Cass counties should he be elected.
He is seeking the legislative seat now held by Senator Chris Metzger of Cedar Creek.

A Night to Remember...
The Elmwood Murdock Junior/Senior Prom was a success. After all that planning...all that fundraising...and all the shopping..the kids had a good time. Here are a few pictures of the kids as they prepared to leave for Prom at the Lancaster Event Center in Lincoln. The Post Prom Party Committee rented charter buses to drive the kids to the event. After an evening of dinner and dancing the kids changed clothes and boarded the buses again to go to the YMCA in south Lincoln for the Post Prom Party. There they had a choice of the rock climbing wall, swimming, basketball, dodgeball, and many other games. They had a lot of Minute to Win It games, too. I have some great pictures of the Post Prom Party to share with you...except I've misplaced my camera. Hopefully by next week I will be able to post those for you. The kids were awesome. The Elmwood Murdock parents can be proud of their kids.

Thanks to Dan Timm, Kalee had a camoflauge bandaid for the scratch on her thumb that she got from her gun. Doesn't that just seem fitting?

Looking for walkers!!! Or sponsors!
There will be free admission to the park, free parking, free breakfast (Krispy Kreme & Starbucks) and lunch and for the kiddos there is a big top tent full of carnival games to play, the entertainment after the walk will be the String Beans Band (kids band). The lunch being provided I have been told is Arby's, also Blue Bunny will be there with ice cream for a cool treat and that is just a start.
Dannielle was born at 28 weeks...she weighed 1lb 13oz and 14" long. Today Dannielle weighs 13lbs and 23" long. She has come along way thanks to the March of Dimes and their research.
Thanks!
