METROPOLIS, IL – Small town spirit is evident here as the great citizens of Metropolis make plans to take part in a bone marrow drive in Monday, April 12, from 2-6 pm. The Metropolis Planet <\/em>has organized this event in honor of the Planet’s Editor Emeritus, Clyde Wills, who has been diagnosed with luekemia–a diagnosis that came as such a shock this February after 64 years of almost perfect health.                                <\/p>\n
