10 years ago (1999): Surely, the weather wasn't forgiving for the inaugural National State Games of America in St. Louis. Neither was Sandy Wald-Clooten.
Wald-Clooten, competing in temperatures in the 90-degree range and drenching humidity, overwhelmed four opponents to bring home a gold medal in women's tennis. She went 4-0, losing just two of 50 games in the 45-55 division.
20 years ago (1989): Terry Barnes of Bismarck and Dean Brecht of Golden Valley were the feature winners at the Bismarck Speedway.
Barnes finished ahead of Don Helbling and Darrell Bauer in the feature of the super stocks.
Brecht placed first, Brian Swenson second in the street feature.
50 years ago (1959): Bismarck or Minot will claim the 1959 Women's State Amateur Golf crown.
Mrs. Audrey Wightman, Bismarck, who has won the title for the past two years, continued her steady golf in downing Ruth Rausch, Bismarck, 7 and 6.
