Herb Hames's winning streak started petering out in mid-1955, after the death of longtime Publisher Fred A. Sapp. The paper was sold (for $750,000) to the late Leslie Small, son of Illinois' longtime scandal-tainted Republican Governor (1921-29) Lennington Small, and his sons, Len and Burrell, who also publish the nearby Kankakee Journal (circ. 24,960).
