Twelve topics are covered in the seven pages of this edition of the “News and Notes” section. Highlights include the establishment of a commission to celebrate the centennial of Theodore Roosevelt’s tenure as Governor of New York state; the publication of Edmund Morris’s biography of Ronald Reagan; the visit by C-SPAN to Sagamore Hill National Historic Site; and the establishment of a Theodore Roosevelt Association (TRA) chapter and police award in New Orleans, Louisiana. The section also notes the Gold Medal conferred upon Anna Curtenius Roosevelt by the Society of Women Geographers, plans for the 1999 annual meeting of the TRA, and the death of Thomas P. DiVita, a volunteer at Sagamore Hill. Some details from Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt’s funeral instructions, an excerpt from Edward Wagenknecht’s The Seven Worlds of Theodore Roosevelt, and the announcement of a premiere of a play about Theodore Roosevelt, Teddykins: An American Hero, complete the section.
A list of the members of the New York state commission marking Roosevelt’s tenure as governor and an advertisement for the Chicago Clothing Store of Sandpoint, Idaho, appear in the section.
