Meanwhile, here is a compiled listing of articles by title, from 1959-1968. Now, I found the titles sometimes esoteric if not confusing - so, under "Info", I provided each entry with my own reference terms, dates, locations, names, events etc. as searchable keywords (please excuse any typos!). As you can see below, the article date is to the right of Info. Assuming you know how to use GNA just go to SDC and enter the date desired e.g. Jan 3 1959..and your off and running... you will have to scroll or eyeball the article and page - usually the article is on the bottom half of a page - say between pages 14-18 of a standard 22-32 page issue - or try typing in a guesstimate page number in the upper right..say 15..and scroll from there to save time...
If you are not familiar with GNA, you might start by clicking the Advertisement on Dec 31, 1958, p. 29; then afterwards click on "Browse this Newspaper" then sort by day. The articles appeared most every Saturday starting with January 3, 1959 (some are to be found under Friday links as indicated under my Info). There are "no editions available" for Sunday, so your eyes will easily focus on the Saturday edition followed by a blank.
