of El Paso Chris Fox vice president of the State National Bank traced the chronological street addresses store names and ownership of this El Paso landmark IT WAS FOUNDED in 1913 EDITORS NOTE: In view of former president Nixon's hospitalization the following column by Virginia Payette first distributed June 20 1973 is of special interest If the psychiatrists are right in their theory that too many disruptions make us physically and emotionally ill then President Nixon is according to their scale of change going to need a doctor any day now A body can take just so much it turns out before it blows a gasket somewhere That includes happy events as well as the sad ones Any change in our routine brings on a certain amount of stress goes the prognosis and this hacks away at our biological organism until it becomes a sitting duck for everything from heart attacks to ulcers to psychiatric problems TO COPE with this a team of doctors at the University of Washington School of Medicine has drawn up a do-it-yourself chart of 43 various life crises and rated them according to their potential clout Death of a spouse for instance is the most traumatic with a stress value of 100 on their readjustment rating scale" Next comes divorce (73) marital separation (65) Jail term (63) marriage (50) getting fired (47) sex difficulties (39) a change louder or quieter in husband-wife spats (35) Then there's gaining a new member in the family (39) a mortgage over 910000 (31) any change in responsibilities at work (29) outstanding personal achievement (28) trouble with the boss (23) change in sleeping habits (16) Zoological Society Sees "Desert" Film A film presentation of Desert" will highlight the meeting of the El Paso Zoological Society on Wednesday at 7 pm in the Board Room of the YWCA 1600 North Brown street The film is courtesy of the Chamizal National Memorial Museum Taylor Schottle Curator of the El Paso Zoological Park will show and discuss the Animal of the Month The public is welcome to attend vacations (13 each) and Christmas (12) THE AVERAGE person according to the doctors can tolerate a small clustering of these life-change units every year without getting sick But when they add up to 200 or more he's in trouble And so on the theory that President Nixon has had his share of stress this year and keeping in mind that his physical and mental health is important to the rest of us I ran him through the handy-dandy scale We all know he's married has a mortgage over 910000 (like two or three!) has recently taken on an unwelcome on the job has had at least two big personal achievements (re-election and the end of the war) and is in trouble with his boss (if you believe that bit about presidents being the servhpt of all the people) ALSO changed his sleeping habits lately (Pat says he now bangs away on the piano until all hours) he's had several short vacations (San Clemente Key West the Bahamas) and he enjoyed Christmas along with the rest of us Obviously this can only be a superficial checkup After all we know about his private life (39) whether he ever snaps at Pat (35) or if maybe one of the girls is thinking of adding a new family member (39) Even so Mr Nixon's total comes to a startling 318 And that doesn't count the extra stress factors the good doctors didn't build into their chart: things like how to wind up the peace talks the Iceland trip to confer with President Pompidou the visit from Brezhnev and (no Presidential stress list would be complete without it) the Watergate mess IN THE unlikely event that a grand jury should turn up evidence that would force Mr Nixon to resign have an even higher total: fired at work (47) retirement (45) change in residence (20) and a change in social activities (18) It will probably never happen but even listening to politicians suggest such a thing probably piles up a few more stress points Which makes him a prime candidate for a bad case of the sniffles at least Gesundheit Mr

a 105-acre regional shopping center to be known as El Marcado Mesa Now open for business is a Safeway grocery store a Gunning-Ca steel drug store and a G-C Liquors The center is located at 7410 Remcon

drive It was founded ther boomed by the Mexico Revolution and it has seen palatial homes being built and prominent El Paso was living in same and raising their families So it is highly possible that today there are living in Ei Paso more grandfathers grandmothers fathers and mothers and relatives who at one time or another entered the doors of the Sunset Grocery and Market than any other one grocery store in El Paso THESE 61 years the Sunset Grocery Sc Market remaining in exactly the same location has had three different streets as its address though always with the same numbers This location known as the Sunset Grocery Sc Market has also carried four names or three in addition to its established name Eysters COD Grocery 8c Market The McKenna Grocery 8c Market and the Mark Gibson Grocery 8c Market note that over the span of three score and one years it has had 17 proprietors Also it might be well to note that on October 3 1907 Dr Gallagher filed a deed which showed that he had conveyed the undeveloped property to a William Rosing who retained ownership until February 5 1925 so it is safe to assume that Mr Rosing built the famous apartment-grocery store which will remain as a monument of happiness to thousands of El Pasoans all of whom will be proud in knowing that this modest though famous structure has been preserved by a beautiful painting which came from the hand and heart of El Tom Lea and will be seen in the El Paso Museum Of Art because the children of the late Mr and Mrs William Henry Peterson Sr who con- tributed much to the community of El Paso ordered its

proprietor In 1919 and 20 showed the store had Mrs Parker as proprietor 1921 through 1932 the store was called the McKenna Grocery Sc Market at 201 Los Angeles with McKenna as proprietor In 1933 the store again became the Sunset Grocery Market with Aboud as a proprietor he also operated the store in 1934 1935 the listing shows 201 Los Angeles street as the Sunset Grocery Market but no owner was listed It is possible that it is either an oversite andor maybe in 1935 the store operate 1936 the Sunset Grocery Sc Market at 201 Los Angeles listed Isaac Barberry as proprietor but 1937 to 1941 the Sunset Grocery Sc Market was listed as 700 Mundy with Isaac Barberry as proprietor In 1942 and 1943 listings show the Sunset Grocery A Market with A Aleon as proprietor The The year 1944 was not listed at all in any manner so it is to be assumed that it was an oversite on the part of the directory staff 1945-1956 the Sunset Grocery Market at 700 Mundy had Leon Ekery vs proprietor this was the second longest period of operations of the dear eld Sunset under one came and proprietor the longest being under McKenna 1957 AND 1958 the store had Gcnero Ed Perez as proprietor The Sunset Grocery Market for the years of 1959 1960 and 1961 had Mrs Estcla Trillo as the proprietress but out of the blue starting in 1962 and continuing to date September 1974 comes Herman Videla as proprietor of the Sunset Grocery 8c Market though 1973 and 1974 it shows the proprietor as being Herman Videla Jr may have been greater stores larger stores in larger cities operating in the grocery business for the
