QRYTEXT: WILLIAM EDWIN ("ED") NAUGLE, Shippensburg, Cumberland Co, PA

Ed worked at several jobs before going to work in the 1920s as an bookkeeper at the
Peerless Furniture Co., run by his brother Carl.  He became a member of the board of
directors and assistant to Carl, the president and general manager of the plant.  He
also helped his sister, Hazel Naugle Myers, start the M&N restaurant.

Ed then was instrumental in opening the first self-service grocery store in
Shippensburg.  Four years later, he sold that store and opened Naugle Motors in
1945.  It was the first Dodge dealership in Shippensburg. His sons, William and
Richard, joined him in running the business.  Today it is run by William Jr.'s sons,
Robert and William III.

Ed was instrumental in many other enterprises in Shippensburg. When the adolescents
needed a place to gather, he got a room at the American Legion, and the Teen
Canteen was born.  He also served for 25 years on the Shippensburg Recreation and
Park Commission, the last 11 of which as chairman.

In the 1960's, Ed decided Shippensburg needed a good bowling alley, and built what
is now called Park Lanes in 1964. Besides owning the establishment, he was a pretty
good bowler, carrying an average in the 180's during the 1970's.

Ed was president of the Lion's Club for a while, president of the Community Chest
for a year, and a Sunday school superintendent at the Methodist Church, where he
was very active.

He was a very successful businessman, as well as someone who, when he saw a need,
figured out how to meet it.  Ed made significant contributions to his community.

(This information from an article in the Shippensburg New Chronicle on the occasion
of Ed's 93rd birthday in May 1994.)
