Good morning,
It’s a partly cloudy Halloween ahead for Whitewater, with a high temperature of fifty-one. Trick or Treat in Whitewater runs from 4 to 7 PM today. It’s one of the traditional and quaint features of life in Whitewater that we’ve kept the celebration of the holiday on the holiday, rather than moving it about to the weekend preceding. Have fun, be safe!
The Wisconsin Historical Society marks today as a memorable day in Bucks franchise history:
1968 – Milwaukee Bucks Win First Game
On this date the Milwaukee Bucks claimed their first victory, a 134-118 win over the Detroit Pistons in the Milwaukee Arena. The Bucks were 0-5 at the time, and Wayne Embry led Milwaukee with 30 points. Embry became the first player in Bucks history to score 30 or more points in a regular season game.

They’ll only have the chance to win more games if there’s a season in which to win them. A recent story in the New York Post offers the latest on the NBA’s ever-shrinking 2011-2012 season.
