The “Board of Directors” for the Gas House Gang convened Tuesday afternoon at the Skelly Service Station in downtown Tekamah to discuss matters of grave importance. The meeting opened with a motion to adjourn to the home of John Tobin for coffee. Caught in a rare photograph in 1970 are 14 of the Gang’s 17 directors. They include, back row, from left: Quincy Bridwell, Francis Tobin, Gene Grothe, Elwin Robinson, John Ray, Boyd Palmer; front: Fred Garner, Sam Morton, Elmer Georgeson, Gordon Palmer, Claude Englert, Jack Triplett, Russell Langley and Leo Tobin. Other “directors” not pictured are: Paul Chase (ill), Kenneth Baker (late, as usual) and John Tobin (fixing coffee).
