MRS. CLAUS AND THE SCRAPPERS. Mrs. Claus visits Scrapper football players during one of their downtown treks to visit local businesses on game day. Mrs. Claus recently arrived from the North Pole to do her Christmas shopping in Nashville.

A familiar year-end shopper descended upon Nashville recently.

It was the annual shopping trip of Mrs. Claus, who arrived from the North Pole in search of Christmas presents for Santa and the elves.

She made her usual stops, and kept an eye out for gifts for all on her rather lengthy list.

While in Nashville she visited: York Gary Autoplex, Southwest’s Ivan Smith Furniture, Power Pharmacy, Quality Shoe Store, SusieQ’s, Home Improvement Center of Southwest Arkansas, Kortlan and Karter’s Dugout, Merle Norman and John’s Hair Care. In this and future issues of “The Leader” she will present some of her gift ideas.
