Story and photos by Monty Siekerman
Just about every Christmas song ever written will be sung at ONU during the Kappa Phi Sing-A-Thon.

Here, members of the group perform at the beginning of the marathon. The 24 hour continuous sing will find more than 100 students singing, in groups and individually, between 5 p.m. Friday and 5 p.m. Saturday raising their voices for a good cause...to help little Amelia Griffin from Ada who is battling cancer.

The sing-a-thon has been held for many years. The event is a project of the local chapter of the Christian women's service.

Jeff Schulman speaks at Kiwanis Club

Jeff Schulman presented a program “A Memory, A Mystery, and A Connection,” to the Ada Kiwanis in the club's recent meeting.

Schuman shared how as a 10-year-old living in New York City, he often frequented the American Museum of Natural History and the Hayden Planetarium. He noted however that he loved the museum of Natural History more.

He was drawn to the dinosaurs and since there were only about 20 different types, he learned them all.

However, he always wondered what happened to them. Why did they all become extinct?
