Happy Birthday, Nick

From the Odebolt History Pages:
Thelma Dresselhuis Writes

"The state was paving Highway 175 [then identified as Highway 35] and also rented offices in the upstairs [of the electric office] that were used by a goodly number of engineers, some just out of college, and who, with their wives, became fast friends. One couple, Frank and Helen Nolte, became the parents of Nick Nolte, an outstanding movie actor. They were a lively and fun group."
