The selection of newspaper articles reproduced in this section were obtained primarily from microfilm. We have tried wherever possible to reproduce these stories as they first appeared, even though flaws in the microfilm show up. Where legibility became a problem, Newsday typeset the text again, and it is shown in hypertext markup language.

Microfilm was obtained from the following sources: Nassau County Museum Collection/Long Island Studies Institute; John Jermain Library; Queens Library, Long Island Room; Melville Library at State University of New York, Stony Brook, Special Collections Room; the East Hampton Public Library, and Newsday's own collection.
