Previous Image Next Image Next Gallery: Columbus Day At Tower Grove Park
10/12/12-Dedicated members of the Italian-American Organization of St. Louis gathered once again at the base of the Christopher Columbus statue at Tower Grove park Friday morning. They like to observe the exact date that Columbus reportedly "discovered" America. It was not a place to bring up the PC-fueled campaign to rename the holiday "Explorers' Day" to shift focus off of Columbus, who some say was tainted by a legacy of slavery, imperialism, and the downfall of Native Americans. "I disagree totally with that bunch, that's nonsense," said Italian Club member Ed Berra. "Columbus did it, give him credit. Why change it now?". Bonus fun fact: The Tower Grove park statue is the only known depiction of Columbus wearing a beard because benefactor Henry Shaw said if he's paying for it, Columbus is going to have a beard.

Students in Matt Elledge's driver's education class at Highland High School learned more about the hazards of texting behind the wheel Thursday. They watched news coverage of a 2002 crash in Las Vegas that left two girls dead and three others critically hurt, then heard from Madison County Assistant State's Ellen Burford about the serious legal ramifications of getting caught. Sophomore Grant Burke said "message received", he won't text and drive. However..."I've been in a car with someone who was driving (while texting), and after taking this class I'll tell them 'Put the phone away because I don't want to die'." (KMOX/Brett Blume)
