US 46 still goes thru town. Star intersection still gets all jammed up. I remember when a friend of mine with NJSP was sent to Hackettstown one night. He asked what the nature of the call was. He was told: "You'll see when you get there." Traffic was blocked for miles in all directions. When he got to the star intersection he found the drunken Chief of Police trying to direct traffic. He said: "Sir, you'll have to come with me." The Chief objected but was persuaded to the trooper car and was taken home where his wife was waiting. She took one look at him and yelled: "You drunken SOB! Get in here!" One more night in the life of a Trooper. Another time, I was invited to the American Legion Club in Hackettstown where a good friend was being honored as the new State Vice Commander. They had prepared three punch bowls. One with vodka martinis, one with gin, and one with manhattens. you just ladled up your own. By the time the dinner came, everyone was pretty well pie-eyed. The Master of Ceremonies was so drunk no one could understand him even though his jokes where probably funny. He was the only one laughing. Someone in the crowd decided to get up and sing "America the Beautiful" but he was so drunk no one knew what he was trying to do so the Sergeant at Arms removed him from the hall. All perfectly normal in Hackettstown. (;>))

It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
