today's headlines:

  • a new president and CEO will start working for Renew Moline in June,
  • for its bicentennial Illinois wants you to vote for the Top 200,
  • and Augustana College plans to offer its first graduate degree in about 40 years.

It should be cloudy today with a chance for more rain and snow. High near 39. 

A native of Detroit, Herb Trix began his radio career as a country-western disc jockey in Roswell, New Mexico (“KRSY, your superkicker in the Pecos Valley”), in 1978. After a stint at an oldies station in Topeka, Kansas (imagine getting paid to play “Louie Louie” and “Great Balls of Fire”), he wormed his way into news, first in Topeka, and then in Freeport Illinois.
