105-pound Melon Sent To
Wallace Mclver By
Brother in Arkansas
It took two men to lift one
watermelon off the Pan American
plane yesterday as it weighed 105
pounds!
The huge melon was a gift for
Wallace Mclver and family from
a brother in Hope, Arkansas. The
farm from which the melon came,
raised one last year weighing 191
pounds!
As the Mclver children and
their cousins, aunts, uncles and
grandmother indulged last eve
ning, enjoying the treat, they took
special care of every seed, as all
the seeds will be returned to Ar
kansas to make more big water
melons next year.
The seeds from these big water
melons, Mrs. Mclver stated, are
worth 50 cents an ounce and they
estimated there was $16 worth of
seeds in this melon.
